anxious to get the little fellow tellow fel tel low ana ana- on tao tIlO other hand Cooley could not figure for tho the life of ot him how he be could carry Artie Artio and remain under the salary limit t. t is a prett pretty expensive ball pI player and if cooley were running a a. class clas B league team h he would have carried him As it is is Dick does docs not figure figura that tbt will dass with such uch pitchers as Morgan Killilay Dres Dres- san and Jensen or oven even Lund and Richardson for that matter Cooley certainly wants a a. pitching staff i this season for tor ho knows better batter 1 than anyone else that his hurling staff staiT lost him the bunting last season Many times last ast season the en s pil piled d up four five live or six six runs to the good in the early cary stages es of a game garno only onh to have the tho pitchers undo undo- it again acain in the tho next nest inning or two Especially Especially Es Es- was it-as this true on the tho road where Morn Morgan and were the only only Leavers beavers to be bp relied upon True truc can play the outfield about as well weB as any man in the Union association but either cither Jensen or 01 Morgan c can u work in in the outer garIon garden gar gar- Ion den and especially can out out- hit tilt can cau also play pis tim tho infield in tip top form but it is 16 doubtful whether ho he wi will mil have havo any any- on Billy Davis either in hitting bitting or fielding chimp will make a valuable valuable able man for McCloskey and he be will Im be bea a popular player in O Ogden den as
