Big League Managers Think It Brings Good Results, Practically every baseball manager in the business today has come to the conclusion that the individual coach- ing eystem is by far the best way to gt desired resuits, This applies particularly to the case of youngsters trying to make good in major leagues, Connie Mack, though himself general- 1y conceded to be able to either green or semi-seasoned men for any position on the fleld, hes some veter- ans on the club upon whom he depends for the full development of the Yani- gans. Harry Davis is an inveluable man for this character of work. He knows the infleld game from alphs to omega with a return ticket. He can take & man who wants to learn and is willing to learn the infield and make the best of him, says an exchange. Of course, if the rative abllity isn't there Davis would be as far from bringing about the hoped for results as anyone else. On the other hand, there are a Jot of managers now who cannot take & man who has the natural stuff in Rim snd bring it out in the major lesgue was. In the eame way Danny Murphy s paring perticular attention to the memn who are trying for outfleld posftions with Mack. To be sure, recent reports from the team are to the effect that Murphy is in general charge. At the same time he ie leaving Davis’ work for him. 2nd he is letting Ira the veteran catcher, work with the young pitchers who ere trying to get the stuff on their twirling. Thomas is & master at this end of the game, as well as lord of the situation when he je working behind the bat In a game. Juet as Connie Mack s showing what he thinks of individual coaching by s actions, Hughey Jennings is following euit 1o a lesser extent. Jen- mings, however, is a fim bellever in the system of ndividnal coaching. He thinks that there ouzht to be on every well organized baseball club a veteran catcher, pitcher, infielder and outfleld- er. Jimmy Barrett, who is with Jen- nings on the training irip, is strong for the four-man system. Here is the way Barrett is guoted om this sub- | ject: “All the big footbsll elevens have Coaches for every position. and why shouldn’t ball elubs de the same thing® The biz leaguers put the O. X. on the scheme to = certain extent when they engage Ditchers and catch- ers. But why stop there? Why not make it complete? Any bell elub would save a lot of money by hiring twtors for the infield and outfield posi- tions. A reerwit, if he had big league possittiities, could learn more during the training season than during the | entire regular season, amd if he did Dot bave the ability it would save the | ¥ & lot of money io ind it out be- “The proposi- way you losk thall &egmflrwfl. why individual coaching is Food for baseball and not for football Columbias Want Games.

FINANGIAL AND COMMERGIAL NEW HAVEN DOWN TO 106 Unfavorable Maroh Statement Causes i Break of Four Points. Now York, April 30.—Irreguiar | movements marked the course oi to- | day’s stock market, The leading is- | sues were inclined o improve. At the | same time more tham thirty stecks | touched new low levels for the year Most of these stecks were of sec- | ondary _impor although the list | included Southeran Pacide, Now Haven | and valtimore and Ohie. Taken as a whole, the movement was uncertain and coufusing, Although Reading, Lehigh Valley, Union Pacific, Amal gamated and a number of other prom- inens issues ruled u point or more | { highee at times, thix improvemcit | could net be said te reiect a growth in confidence or buying power. The | demand seemed to arise chiefly from | short covering and wherever stocks were offered, other than the specu- latve favoriies, in which there has been heavy seillng recently, it was necessary to make sharp concessions o find a market. After a week of incessaut selling it was rogarded as natural that there | should be a reaction. An upturn was | indicated by the sharp advance of | | American stocks in Loadoan prior to {he opening here, although frs: prices in market did not follow up the improvement abroad to its full extent. | Barly Europesa advices regarding th | nternational political situation wore | |more cheerful and London bought | | about 15,000 shares here on balance. | Whatever help was derived from this | source, however, was minimized by the | persisient weakness of a long list of | | stocks. Southern Pacific eold off two | points to 95 5-3, on the adverse de- | cision of the lower court in the Ore- gon-California land grant case. New Haven broke over four points 10 106 on the highly unfavorable March statement disclosing a decrease in net revenue of $803,000. Soveral other ro! also reported shrinkages in March earnings, Reading’s net earn- ings from all companies decreased $1,~ 248,000.

Toward the latter part of 1876 Ben- nett joined the famous old Aetnas of Detroit, the sworn rivals of the his- toric Cass club. Great rivalry existed between the local organizations and it was for gore and glory that they fought many hard battles. In 1877 Bennett signed his first real contract to play professional ball. He placed his John Hancoclk to a Milwaukee club contract at a salary somewheré about $150 per month. When Charlie's father be $150 per vear, so he called Charles to one side and told him in a fatkerly way to call on him for assist- he never could Mve on that amount. When Charlie convinced his dad that he was to receive that amount month- ly, Father Bennett was completely could or would pay that enormous amount for merely playing baseball. The great Bennett was with Milwaukee two seasons, 1877-187S. In 1879 he sigued his first big league contract with the Worcester club, then a member of the National league. The famous Doc Bushong was the star backstop of the country at that time, and he was on the Worcester lineup, so Bennett had to show class to be even considered in the same breath with Bushong, for the Worcester fans considered that no catcher In the country was fit even to unbuckle the latchet of Doc Bushong's shoes. Before long Charlie had the op- to show his real ability. He gave sucty an exhibition of all around ball playing that he supplanted the wonderful Doc as the star of the team and league The phenomenal throwing powers that Bennett possessed and his ability to Lit the bal} hard and often brought slugger that he won for himself the sobriquet of Home Run Charlie. Den- nett performed some wonderful feats with the bat In his day. The old fans tel] of the terrifie swats he adminis- tered to the ball. In 1885 Bennett had a wonderful sea- | son with the stick. He hit for 64 bases | in 91 games, generally getting a double or better in the majority of his games; 1887 was his banner year with the stick. His hitting was right in keeping with his slugging teammates—the greatest hitting aggregation. As a thrower Bennett had all great catchers excelled—the almost perfect thrower was C. W. Bennett, His power to shoot the ball to bases with deadly accuracy was nothing short of mar- veleus. Charlie Bennett was a man, and his record as a player is a grand model for all young players to emu- late His conduct as a ball player is clean, his recerd is clean-cut, and, by the way, how many of that grand old guard who brought fame to old Detroit and Michigan from 1886 to 1888 were nett today is a highly respected citizen of Detroit, a hero in _the eves of all young ball players and fans. He gets in the opening game every year. and has the honor of catching the first ball hurled through' by the many famous mayors of Detroit, and it is no easy fask to capture some of the flings sent these men holding the with. They may be able to control the destinies of a great city, but as a gen- eral rule they cannot control the little white ball that C. Bennett, the game's is supposed to catch. Time has dealt lightly with Charles Bennett save for a graying of his thick locks. Yale Defeats Tufts 18 to 7. New Haven, Conn.
