UP-TO-DATE “AND NEWSY Must Pass Out Of Big Leagues leading pitcher in the American League last year, must now go to the minors as a penalty for tumbling down the baseball ladder faster prob- ably than any other etar in the game's history. Only a short time ago the baseball world pronounced ‘Wood one of the greatest pitchers who ever faced a batsman hen something happened to “Smoky” Joe's | arm and he fell disfavor with the! Red Sox. According to word received from Boston, Manager Carrigan has asked waivers on Wood, and not a single club in the big leagues will | take a chance on him, Along with Wood, watvers ha also been asked on Ray Collins, For. rest Cady and Chester Thomas.

Of course the “quarter a head” that is paid by spectators at bis down. may be an in- ducement to manager, whose business instinots are prom- inently developed. But why go aftor the quarters when there's a cham- pionsbip and several hundred thou- ands of Gollare at | at stake? « G8 has explained his one alleged \efeat.” “I bave something on all the had other fighters,” sald Jess last night. “Tm the only one who has the satis. faction of knowing that his first two manager are in the same peni- Jess stopped to chuckle. “Yes, they both got me into trouble, ‘The first one ran @ fighting club in o and put me on for my first fight.

TLL CARRIGAN, manager of the Boston Red Sox, at least has the courage of his convictions. He proposes to disprove all the tim honored theories of spring training of the baseball champions of the world, Of departure, eto-—he saya: “It may surprise you to learn that our team will not leave Boston for the get in condition, but I believe it to be ford to try the experiment. “I have always been of the opinion that baseball clubs took too much time getting in condition and that part of the time was really wasted. It le frequently the case that baliplayers train so hard that they go stale just before beginning the season. I realize that all the other clubs will bi a three weeks start on us, but I am not worrying about that can do just as much in three weeks 4s we could in six. We do not intend to play many exhibition games, but will jump right back to Boston from Hot Bprings and be ready to fire the first gun of the season.” This experiment on the part of the Red Sox will be watohed with much intowest by the other managors as well as the critics of the game who have heard the subject discussed amo: baseball people for many years, Other managers have believed in a short training trip, but at the last minute got cold feet and were afraid to try it All of the clubs, or, rather, a big majority of them, have come to the conclusion that long exhibition tours are not good for the players, McGraw, for instance, thinks that a club should stay in the far South just as long as possible 60 as to avoid running into cold weather in the North. Clubs often start in first class condition, but theplayers begin to stiffen the mo- ment they strike the colder climate of the Middle States, where the exbibi- tion games are frequently played Clarke Griffith, on the other hand, |dves not believe in going to the South at all. He goes to Charlotte: | ville, Va., and evon thought he fro- quently finds his practice stopped by |suow storms, he claims that it makes the players better able to stand the rigors of early spring in Washington In other words he wants the climate of his training camp to be as nearly the same as that at home as possible, The St. Louis Club also tried the plan of training near home, but the ent met with dismal failure, ye season opened half the play- ers were in no condition to work and “charleyhorse” was epidemle., On an- other occaston they tried right In St, Louts, failure. that the Giants trained at. the Grounds, but the result was laughable, Teas worming WIth GOABOKT BMT) WouLD Touanen WS Bean, | Dlayer and to do it he is staking the chances; In answer to a request for informa- i tion concerning his spring schedule—! clube ume training camp at Hot Springs until clubs were slow about it, but nowa- | March 17, and that we will not begin|days that quick getaway is all im- regular practice until the afternoon of | portant. “It may mean the pennant.
