Kahn was the most persistance holdout on the club, but has finnally declared to play at the figure offered him. Kahn had some high flying notions about go- ing to the International and about a suitable salary for himself, but the ap- proach of the season has frightened them away.Jerry like most of the other holdouts wants to play. Prospects May be Dashed There is a certain wague fear in the hearts of followers of the New .York Giants that their pennant prospects may be dashed by injuries, just as those of the Yankees and Phillies of other years have been. The Giants have a great ball club, but successive ailments to three of the infield stars, Fris] an- croft and Rapp, have sent a chill down the backs of Giant backers. Two New Pitchers Two new pitchers for Bridgeport are Young and Bob Carruthers. Young, a southpaw, came to the McCanns in the Skiff deal while Carruthers was with Buffalo last season. Snooks Dowd has a good word for Carruthers as a pit- cher.

(Copyright 1921, by The Chicago Tri- Gainesville, Fla., April 3.—Special te The Bulletin).—Wild Bill Donovan, new ‘manager of the Phillies, always has worn 2 smile. his, long baseball career. Perhaps he’ll keep it all through the coming season, but just new'it looks as if he.is up against something that is no laughing matter, If he can keep the Phils out of last place his year's work will be a suceess. Indications are that it will take a lot of luck and cunning and a bundle of cash te land :anywhere but eighth in the Nai ¥ X en a bunch of 't ‘report Finally, one of his reliable and capable “players. cast into the d goods by Judge Undoubtedly there will be some trading and purchasing done by President Baker to fit up the team, but he has little ma- terial for trading and it takes a big bank roll to buy even mediocre players. It looks like Donovan's only chance to wear 'a genuine smile next fall is to have a lot more than his share of luck. Perhaps he'll be able to procure a couple of young- sters who may turn out to be stars. ‘With such an outlook, it in't surprising te find the gemeral morale of the club low. It just doesn’t seem worth while making any effort. It was natural for the players to hold out, hoping they might Dbe traded somewhere—anywhere. Donovan himself, always d popular fel- low with players, may build up a morale. His firm stand in the case of one holdout brought the others into line. His refusal let Meuse! report in the training camp less he signed his contract caused Meu- ] to sign in a hurry, as well as Neale, engel, and Wheat, who previously had reéfurned their contracts unsigned. Find Donovan Their Friend, After getting into camp the would-be holdouts discovered that Donovan was their friend .and a reguln{ fellow and they immediately began té show some signs ‘of loyalty and some spirit in their work. It looks as if Donovan will be a sue- cess as a leader and needs only.some major league material to add to what he has ‘on hgnd to make a success in the percentage column of the league stand- nj ‘\:’i(h the start of the season close at hand, Donovan finds himself in need of a lot of players to make a major league outfit or one even close to the standard of ‘the big fellows. Judging from what has shown so far, it looks as if he not or g needed a first baseman to take Pauleti. s place, bue he needs a second and third basemen. Art Fletcher at short appears to be practically the entire field, and while he is aleng In years, he can hold his own with a lot of regulars at the position. Donovan also is in great need of one high elass catcher and a couple of real pitchers, men who can take regular turns on the slah. The* is ~ lot of material > be needed at this late stage of the game, \ Outfield Is Good Ome. Only In the outfield are the. Phils se- cure. In_Stengel, Williams, Neale, Meu- sel, and Lebourveau, Dondvan hasn't a crew of outer gardeners who stand out as stars, but it is a set that can go, along in’fast” company and perhaps be up to the average. A ¢rew of outfielésrs, how- ever, can hardly be expected to carry the entire team. On the infield, Fletcher is the only fix- fure now that Paulette is lost. A first sacker will have to be packed up some- Where, perhaps from the discards of ene of the other National leagns teams. At second hase is Johnny Rawlings, only ‘a fair player, who last season with Boston and the Phils hit for only a .233 average. His position could stand con- siderable bolstering. Three Candidates for Third. There are three candidates for third in Ralph Miller, Jack Miller and Wright- stone. Of tne lot Ralph\Miller seems to have the call. He\is big and strong and youthful and at times swats the ball in the style expected in the big show. He started out fine a year ago, developed stomach trouble and fell down in hitting to such an extent that he was benched. The veteran Jack Miller hag passed his best days, but will be carried and might even prove a first baseman. It may be difficult to find a youngstar his equal. ‘Wrightstone is far froni a finished player and theugh he walloped the ball for a .260 average last year, he never looked impressive. The only recruit for the in- field at present is Frank Parkinson, a New Jersey semi-pro, who so far has | SATURDAY'S MARKET. New York, April 2.—Dealings in the stock market today retained all of their recent irregular and reactionary aspects. Specialties, particularly tobaccos and sugars, lost 1 to 4 points. Motors, equip- ments and minor ste#s fell 1 to 2 points. There were a few comparatively strong features, mainly those which récently suffered most under short pressure. In- ternational Harvester made a further recovery of almost 3 points, Atlantic Gulf overcame carly pressure.

Four Catchers on Staff. Four catchers are on the club in Masck ‘Wheat,* Frank Bruggy, Frank Withrow, and John Peters. Wheat seems the most reliable of the lot, and he's far from bril- liant. Withrow was with the club. last year and has ’M‘hi::pmmtl this spring.. Peters is a : veteran who displays & fine throwing arm, but what he may.do in fast company is only a . guess.

He is quite sure to win. a lot of ball games. George Smith, Cecil Algernon - Causey, Wales Hubbell, Lefty Weinert, Walter Betts, Johnny Enzmann, and Jimmy Kee- nan are the others. New Pitchers in Fold. The tiew hurlers are Jim Ring, obtained trom the Reds with Neale for Eppa Rix- ¢y; Stanwood Baumgartner, Bob David, Howard Crandall, Johnny Singleton, Bill Timmie, and George Morgan. Of the lot, only two, Ring and Baum- gartner, are close to major league class. Ring is a bit heavy,; but has worked hard and will be in shape. Baumgartner was with the team in 1915, but quit baseball the following year. Last year he was in the steel league. He is a left hander, who gained his first experlence at the University of Chicago, where he was a football star, too. If he can hit well enough, he might be turned into a first baseman in the present crisis. Donovan attempted to drill his men twice a day, but found the work too stiff for them_ after a week, so put them on the one long workout a day order and with. good weather will have them in shape for the start. score, ‘The scoring en la field ‘got their second-.goal towards the end of the second hal o | Alexander Referee, (Taftville).
