It !s a little dificult to picture Matty.in the red stockinged livery that for years has marked the club #0 easy for him to beat. But it is no more difficult than to picture Matty directing an attack against the Giants. The Now York fan will be in the rather incongru- ous position of cheering Bix Six on to new successes and at the same time hoping that his club gets deaten . Matty’s appearance in @ Cincinnati umform will recall the fact, possibly new to modern fans, that the Cincin- nati club first had claim on Mathew- son when he was drought from Nor- folk, and that he had to be turned back before the Giants could get legal possession. Matty ia intensely interested in his new job, and if he does not make good asa manager thenall of the present ideas of what qualities a manager should possess will have been knocked into a cocked hat, Bix bas wl mind that tive, has no close pals among the players, but has the friendship and respect of every player in both the National and American Leagues, No ball player ever made closer analysis of opposing teams than has Matty, and no man is quicker to recognize nd respect the strength of an enumy on the field, ‘An evidence of the regard in which the ball players hold Matty 1s that ful- ly a dozen of them consult him regu- larly as to their new contracts and on the advisability of investments they are about to make. One winter morn- ing I called at bis home in search of gome baseball information, and there found Cy Seymour listening clowoly to Matty’s directions as to whut should ye done ‘egard to the collection of ome loaned money, Seymour had been worried for a month about t mortgage he had, but Hix Bix atraightemed him out in a few min utes, Any number of players sought his advice before dealing with the Federal League, I have never heard one of them say that Matty did not advise them right. CHARLES LAMB'S ESSAYS MAT- TY'S FAVORITE BOOK, While a close student of the game of baseball, Matty has never been a close reader of what has been wr xecutive ability, entirely construc- ten about it in the daily press, He is | just as systematic and exacting In his reading as bo is in pitching to a dangerous ba Incidentally, his favorite book volume of Charles Lamb's Essaya, Matty reads just one morning and two afternoon papers, And these be does not read for (he sporting news. He buys papers for correct and complete tables on the stock market, When that is thoroughly sifted he turna to the sporting page. If # bai I] story does not happen to be in those particular papers Big Six will never see tt, Many @ young re porter has written a eulogy of Matty, thinking it would please him, not knowing that Matty never saw It, Despite the fact that tho big fel- low always was a dependable friend of tho writers he rarely ever read thelr stuff, In fact, thera was book “written” by him a fow years ago that he has never read to thin day, And his name was signed to it too! - | df @ young writer, unfamiitay with Matty, Idol of Fans and Ball Players, as He Is On and Off the Diamond ~ Giants’ Star Boxman for Sixteen Years Has No! Close Pals, but Has Friendship and Respect of Every Team in Both Leagues—Hard to Picture Him Directing Attack Against His the technique of the game, joined the club he could alwaya depend upon Matty to straighten him out about anything of a pussiing nature. He never “kids' young player, Mathewson has never had any illu- sions about baseball, To him it was always an exacting profession, de- manding so much work for eo much money, and one in which sentiment did not enter, MATTY DIDN'T BELIEVE HE HAD LIFE JOB HERE, “You need never worry, old boy,” an elderly friend said to him one day as we sat on the plagza of a Texas hotel, “they would never let you get away from New York if you wore a j uniform unull your whiskers dragged jthe ground, You've got a job for life, whether the old arm hoids out or not.” “Yes, | know,” drawled, “When my arm gi be hunting fo you are done. Th The ono thing. Big, Six alw ye dreaded was public clamor, He never got used to It, and often he has un- consciously offended friends by cut- ting short their enthusiasm with silence, For years a lot of fans and pl “aw But they learned better, It was diffidence on his part, He ta absolutely lacking in what might be termed affability, He does not know how to be a good fellow and warm up to a stranger, If intro- duced to @ person he will frequent Limit his conversation to two or thr words in an hour, Unless he someshing to say that ts worth while |} he will not speak at all On aeveral trips I shared rooms with him, and it was with the great- est difficulty that he could be per- suaded to meet and talk with ad- mirers who had called at the hotels, “I'd give fnrthing in the world f | could talk free and easy to pee ple,” he confided one That gift of being pleasant when one doesn't feel exactly like it t never had. All his baseball life Matty has been a clone student of the construction of new teams, and for that reason he should make a successful manager. He declares the best team he ever layed on waa the Giants of 1905, ‘The hest teain for a pitcher to be on, he always sald 1911, 1912 and 1918. “We haven't got much of @ ball to may, “but those nly Ko out and get rf pitcher In enay. ‘The trouble ts the club has no de- fenso.” MATTY VALUES EXPERIENCE ON THE STAGE, But, returning to his diMdence, or timidity, for a moment, Matty saya the most valuable experience he ever had was on thé stage. He worked as vaudeville star for three or four months, and at the end of the time found no difficulty in talking in pub- He, What he said, though, was de- livered with deadly precision, That uncanny ability to locate the woak spots in opposing batters ought to be Matty’ strongest card as a ma wer, In an hour's observat! famous Hoston sertes he knew the strong points of the Red Sox better than did thelr owh manager, Elke to Play Double The baseball nine of New the team of Q row afternoon Astoria, ‘The politan dist teratate Baseball League and are con: \testing vigorously for @ pennant, @ young reporter or @ fear tac.

To thousands of New Yorkers “Big Six" was both @ hero and idol. Many have come to regard the great pitcher as a basebéll tradition, one that will live as long as the national pastime is played, It is not likely that the thousands who have watched Matty pitch the Giants to pennants and world’ ampionships will permit the big '} fellow to leave New York without showing their appreciation of his faithful services to the local club. Baseball fans, and all others who wish to contribute, are invited to send their offerings for a suitable remembrance for Mathewson, As Matty drew his admirers from all walks of life, the response to his testimonial will be Just as representative. A 6-cent piece from the bleacherite will be just as welcome as something more substantial from the holder of a box seat, for now is the time for ALL fans to pay a tribute to their departing hero.
