HOCKEY [mace a sic teacor error | . BY BROWN HOLMES Just how much a manager fig: tres in the development of a star pitcher and just how much needs to be done, sometimes, to save good raw material from the Great Scrap Heap is shown by the case of Fred Toney, counted on to be a whale with the Cincinnati the coming season. Toney was turned from a cast-off “dub” Into a pitcher who won a big majority of his games with a second division club last nm and next to G der was the it pitcher In the National league to score against. From the time Toney set strike- out records in the Blue Grass league in 1909 until last season, he He had wonderful | and every good | baseball judge who looked at him sald he ought to be a wonder. Wise managers and catchers tried to make him the great pitcher he ought to have been, then gave up hope. He made five trips to and from the major leagues. Finally, last spring, the big mountaineer found himself out of & job, He asked for another trial with the Cubs and was turned down. He wrote to every other “}elub in the National and American leagues—15 of them—asking for a chance. He got one reply, It was from Buck Herzog, manager of the Cincinnat! Reds. Herzog was willing to tackle the Job of molding the big failure Into a success. Toney reported, without spring training, four days after the sea- son opened, Herzog is one man ager who can get a ball player in shape and he started on the big job. He trained Toney for five weeks. He was criticised for keep- ing the big fellow on the payroll, but the Red leader had some ideas about pitchers and inststed on working them out. Toney had rare speed and al ways tried to whiz the ball past jthe batter. Herzog taught him [not to try to strike out every bat r, but to make them bat at bad balls. Ton: s a side-arm pitch. Jer; Herzog made him pitch over- hand | Herzog taught him to mix in a | slow ball and slow curve with his | fast one and to use his fade-away lon left-hand batters, .He taught {him to use the same motion in throwing his ow ball he used throwing his speedy one The Red boss taught Toney to study batters and “work” on them. Ho tanght him to pitch with his head as much as with his arm, In five weeks Toney —and he was a whirlwind, was ready The pitcher who had been the big mys tery of eball for five years, won 17 games and lost only 6, held opposing teams to less than two runs a game and to a batting aver age of .175. He pitched six shut outs. So, the manager who found Frank Baker and gave the game one of its greatest hitters, gave the game a great pitcher who had been lost.

The grandstand at Denny field was recently wrecked by the storms and rather than rebuild the old stand, the advisability of bulld- ing a new bow! has been taken up. The site of the new stadium | would be on the campus near the lake canal, according to Graduate Manager Younger. Denny field makes an excellent gridiron, but has always proven a stumbling block as @ track field or baseball diamond. From $500 to $1,000 has been spent yearly in repatring the grandstand and keep- ing it in condition, and at present there {s nothing to show for the outlay but a pile of wrecked tim- ber. | The cost of grading and prepar- | ing a new field and erecting a new structure would approximate $50,- 000, says Younger.
