Ollie O’Mara of Brooklyn has hands BASE BALL PLAYERS LOVE THE SPORT. Few Give Up Playing Voluntarily as the Game Affords a Great Fascina- tion. How many professional baseball players are there who have quit the game voluntarily? That is a question that was brought up during a rainy afternoon fanfest when the subject of John McGraw re- tiring from the game at the expira- tion of his contract with the New York club, was brought up. Very few players who have quit the game of their own violation and none of them relinquished their positions until they were in the seer and yel- Jower that is they were long past their prime. They saw the handwriting on the wall which brought to their minds that they were “zoing back.” __The only instance of a player throw- ing up his job when he had a contract that was binding on the club for an- other year, was Eddie Grant of the Giants. Last spring. Eddie entered the headquarters of the New York club and said “I am through. I don't think L can earn my salary and I'm going to resign on that a unt.” Grant Tore Up Contract. Eddie then took his contract out of his pocket (a duplicate), tore it up and threw it into the wasté basket, while President Hempstead and Secretary Foster looked at him in dumb amaze- ment, that such a thing could be. Grant is a Harvard graduate, well educated and a gentleman on and off the ball field. He had pealed to President Hempstead by reason of his personality and the latter had in wanted no more of baseball unl could continue in it as an active er. He announced that he was into business up arcund Eoston He may have had ths n in m but it was only a little after the cham- pionship season opencd when Eddie was heard of manager of a semi- professional club over in Jersey City and there he is today playing Satur- day and Sunday game: There is a cination about base- ball that one once in it, one cannot re- sist continuing in it _John Tener, president of the Na- tional league, may have quit the game at a time when he could | el ve had se al years more of activity as a pitch- er, but, he, too, “came back” as the head of the parent orzanization, It is doubtful though if any other pos woula have attracted him most worthy ambition tc big boss in the league w- bec It wa become the me prominent as a player and he is justly proud of it. In speeches he has said that he prouder of being in professional b: ball than in holding the high offices he did as governor of the gzreat state of Pennsylvania rand exalted ruler of the Elks and national congressman. In the first game Tener pitched he walked up to the umpire at an import- ant stagze of the contest, when his umps had called four balls stead three strikes and irately asked “What W the matter with that ball ” and h umps retaliated with: “If you say that agam it will cost you fitty.” g But this governor of is did not cause the future Pennsy ania and presi- dent of the National league to quit the game. although the decision lost him his game. He loved the sport then and he loves it now. Keeler Quits Yankees. : Keeler, the originator of the trite saying, “Hit ’‘em where they ain’t,” might have played several years longer than he did, but the great little batter tumbled that he was slow- ing up and he threw up his job with the Yankees. Erwin was induced to get back into it by his old Me- Graw, and he acted as a titute player and pinch hitter for the Giants But after a short tarry with them he hied himself over to Williamsburg, where he passes his time collecting rents and playing pinochle with his cronies. However, Willie Keeler has not forgotten his love for the old gam . Jake Stahl took up the banking b iness after he made a hit as manager of the Washingtons but he could not resist the attraction of the sport and he came back to manase the world's champion Red Sox. But Jake was pretty near all in as a player. Players in the big league invariably say they will never, no, never, play in a minor league. But how many of them are there who have lived up to that statement? Doom Changed Mind. There is, for instance, s Charle; Does the dread of the dental chair need have no fears.

T want to be with McGraw as long as I can, for he has a team that will win the pennant. If I am releas- ed by the New York club, me for my pipe and home in Philly. I will never plav in a bush league.’” Charley is now with the Rochester club of the International league un- der the management of Tommy Leach, who was just as firm in his expressed determination not to go to the min- ors. There were Arthur Devlin, Billy Gil- ford, Mike Doolan, Joe McGinnity, Jim O'Rourke, Roger Connor and a host of others, ail well heeled and who were the brightest luminaries of their time, who took up minor league baseball. Then, again, there arc Hank O'Day, Mal Eason, Rob Emslie. Tim Keefe, Bill Dineen and others who have ac- cepted the thankless job of umpiring rather than get out of baseball. Oh, the attraction to the good old game is just simply irresistible to old plavers and the magnates, too, are just as hard to drive out. There was Tuck Turner, who has been playing ball so long that even the writer can hardly go back that far, who has been threatening to quit the game every vear for the last dozen. It was customary with the little blond infielder, afte every losing zame to say to Larry Lajoie, the man- ager of the Cleveland, “Well this is my last year in baseball, I have money enough and I don’'t have to play. Me back to the farm and for sood next Lajoie Calls Turn. would re- “Tuclk, vou will be rignt back with Clevelands next spring and the first one at the training camp. I'll bet vou will. Those old fi and fifteenths of the month, when the captain walks, come in pretty handy. you know, and ivou will not miss one of them as long as vou can write your name to a con- tract.” ¥ see where Turner is today. And Lajoie, too. He, too, may have said: “T will never play in a min league,” but it seems to me if Lar- ty is worse off now than if he was with_the bushers. He is playing with the Philadelphia Athletic And so we have arrived at the con- | clusion that John J. McGraw will be manager of the New York Giants long after his present contract expires. The $20,000 salary attached to the job is somewhat attractive when vou say it quickly and even if that does not appeal to John J., his love for the game will be the means of his stick- Just let the Giants win next vear's | pennant, even if they do not this sea- nd John’s name will be down on a bright new contract in great big | letters ana the populace will applaud.
