' EVERETT TRUE. > Stars Going UpNextYear Young Stars Are Needed, Says Eastern Sport Man; Cravath Yodels BY FRED TURBYVILLE N. E. A. Sports Writer There has been considerable of baseball- talent this ‘Season and there will be lots more _ @uring the winter, for managers of | great extent \ league clubs can't see where are going to strengthen to any. t by grabbing good young- ‘sters from the minors. “They're not there.” says Gavvy Cravath, manager of the Phillies. “There are hardly enough young for them. My team will be near the same. I may make ® trade or a purchase with other dig they “The the minor leaguers. Of course, made lots of new players, but ‘Won't be ready for a year or more. I think when some of new soldier ball players have another year or two in the bush or on the semi-pro lots there be more stars than ever. But ‘that won't help us for next sea » “There are few real stars in the American association this year and the other big minor leagues are also of likely talent. Besides there a big war on between the big and little leagues and the old re not exist whereby !t was the big teams with. money what they wanted from the| for the season of 1920 there be practically the same faces big leagues. If ench club new player it will be an sporting writers ascribe the failure of the Cubs to show pen-) nant caliber to a “lack of punch.” ‘The Windy City club is getting good and a fair brand of playing all around, they say, but frequently they lose games simply because they don't have the deciding push or punch, as the scribes term it.

Johnston .299, O'Neill .299. That's a combination that doesn't ease up on the opposing pitcher at |any point. Just note the fact that | the seventh and eighth batamen on | that list are batting 299 apiece and} you'll realize that no team in either | big league is so consistently danger-; | OUs as one that tapers off to a Doc, Johnston and a Steve O'Nelll. | The second half of the Tribe's! batting order is therefore producing | | Proportionately just about as many | rung as the first half when you take | into consideration the additional | number of times the batsmen at the top of the list go to the plate.

This horse was foaled in 1901| and Is, therefore, 18 years old, while he made his record of 2:16% over the mile track at Dover, N.

She was 17 when she reduced the world’s record to 2:14, while she trotted in 214% when 18, 2:14 when 19, and 2:14% at |20, It must also be remembered that the Maid pulled a high wheeled sulky | iwhile the modern veteran was | hitched to a bike. | C.
