How the new manager has decided. on his lineup for the ‘pitching ‘staff and his reasons coming. season, his probable for the various selections. _) [Qepertght, 188, by The Press Pultishing Co. (The New York World), Hamilton, Bermuda, Mareh, 11. Vg FTER a Goliteration of two weeks Frank Chance has decided upon his firet A Iineup for 198. He declares, however, that he may make one or two changes after two weeks of the coaching on inside play that began to-day. ‘These possible shifts will be of comparatively little importance, as the backbone of the club ts fixed for the season. The strength has been massed as follows: Daniele, right fie! Wolter, centre . Chase, second base. Cree, left field. ‘The regular pitching staff will probably consist of Ford, Warhop, Fisher, training] Caldwell and MoConnell. To back these up Davis, Keating, Green and maybe Chance, first base. Bchults will be eetained. There is an excellent chance for one of these eup- ‘be- | Dlanting a regular. Chance makes no secret of hin rea- eons for making these selections. They are simple and logical. After looking over the printed list as given above he made a slight amendment by sug- gener eat the fan shoul not be too certain of Derrick at short. There is atin a Fay of his playing “Pep” 9 Tri-@tate phenom, in that ‘AS of fact, Chance, “at eta think Young is a better hit- Derrick and he * just an “73 & fielder and, perhaps, faster on the Derrick, deen in the big has more experience.

But for that bicycle ride he thinks Hal would have ‘deen playing now. To be prepared in case of Chase's fall. ure to get in shape for the opening game Chance used Derrick and Young in the first drill of the regulars, alte: nating them at second and short. Before explaining his regular Hneup man for man, Chance candidly admit- ted that the outfield question still had] him guessing. The infield is an easier roposition. “While I have decided to use Lelivelt on the bench for @ pinch hitter xplained, “I don't know but what I should have kept him in cs outfeld him and Wolter, but I must have a fast man as a second batter. If the first man got on a slow runner in second place would be im constant danger of getting doubled up on a slash to the infield. No team can do very well with- out two fast men to lead off. DANIELS 18 THE iT BASE RUNNER, “If it should happen that Wolter's ankle is not in the beet of shape at the beginning of the season,” Chance von- tinued, “I will keep him on the benoh and put Lalivelt in the field. ‘The trouble with thet arrangement would be that I would have to cha: my bat- a explained new manager no Httle.

He was sl for the regular job in left from ment he walked ag the Bermuda dia- mond. As Cree !s not accustomed to a aun field, it may be necessary to switch ‘him to centre occasionally when the glare is particularly bad at the Polo Grounds, As a matter of fact, Chance ‘hasn't an expert sunfielder on his club. Chance considered himself imperson- ally just as he did the other players, “It I did not think I wae fit I would not play,” he explained. ‘But, thanks to Trainer Barrett, my legs are ip better shape than they have been in years 4nd I am down to 18 pounds in weigh: cannot afford to take off any na will have to slow up in my work from now on." HARTZELL TO PLAY THIRD BASE. The most eurprising selection by the new Highlander manager has been that of Roy Hartsell for third base, It was belleved that Hartzell would be benched on account of his lack of speed and used ae a utility man, “I have looked them all over,” said . "and 1 believe Hartzell te the best man for the place. He is a good, steady ball player, with arlot of exper!- ence.
