SPORTING MISCELLA Jim McGuire made a significant remark in Dugdale’s office last night, when he sald the big league scouts knew better than to look for big league material in the Coast league. So far there’s been little noise made about any world-beaters in the Coast clreult, but there are plenty of phenome up this way this summer—more than usual, in fact; and the scouts are not overlooking any bets this year, either. Jim McGuire, for the Naps, and Ted Sullivan, for the Boston Sox, are now on the ground. Bill Lange has just finished for the Cincy Reds, and Bobby Lowe, for the Jennings crowd, will be along in a few days, Others will follow. oe 6 4 Sullivan, the Boston scout, has gone up to Vancouver this week, to propound a few pertinent questions to one Joe Cohn, The Red Sox magnate paid Cohn $5,000 for young Paul Strand early inthe season, or, at least, that is the price that was given Cohn received $1,500 cash, according to all accounts, the remainder to be delivered at the lend of the season {f Paul rounded to nicely, But lately Pa j hasn't pitched.

In the first place, we may as well admit this picture doesn't look much like “the deacon,” as he sat in Dave Dugdale’s office last night, but it is a pretty fair picture of Jim in the days when he squatted on his toes—-and took care of the terrific shoots “Wild Bill” Donovan shot over in Detroit, a few years ago, * Old-timers love to tell that it was Jim who robbed Bill of a lot of his natural speed and fast jumps, because he couldn't handle them be-|" hind the bat; but anyhow, Jim has a number of bum finger joints, so he likely had his own troubles. But those were the olden days, and while “Wild Bill” {s still there with the old stuff, the strenuous times are over for Jim. n the managing stunt was too strenuous, and after a brief whirl with the Naps last spring, settled comfortably back to the old scout job.
