EW YORK Feb. 12. Good lead-
off batsmen are about as scarce
now-adays as classy catchers
and crackerjack base runners.
This fact was brought out yester-
day by manager Hugglns of the
Yankees during a discussion over uuires
wno is ti.e best man on his team to natiMM ... a i.v.i Rast ..- ..
lead-off at bat. Finally Huggins de- off man should be a speedy runner

ehS!e .for thmt POTtant task. enough to take advantage of a change
Of all the many players Huggins to get an extra base on a place hit by
has to select from the youngster. .
irewster. impressed the manager as
having the best qua! if! cations for the;
position and the Yankees possess
several veterans.
Others race Same Problems
That Huggins arrived at that con-!
elusion and picked out such an in-i
experienced player as Fewster. Is evi-
dence of the dearth of capable men-
to 'set the ball a-rolling." j
Other managers than the leader of!
the Yankees are up against the same
irouDie. and it keeps them guessing.
BUKsTtns was lead-off man for th
Cardinals and was a corker at it yet
he Is so modest that he claims no
high honors for having filled the po-
sition StllT he was given plenty of
deserved credit by his opponents
Huggins thinks as does the
writer that ltoy Thomas was one
of the bent lead-off men the game
ever had. Roy It will be remem-
bered was a cood waiter and
had the knaek of "foaling off the
good ones at his pleasure. In

Mtill off the good ones possesaed

Fewster Has Speed '
Fewater. while lacking in expert
ence. haa the speed good judgment
and other qualifications tnat will en-
able him to be developed Into Just
the player the manager Is so desirous
of having.
"Give me a good lead-off man"
said Huggins -and 1 will have a
great start toward a winning
tram. Any team that has such a
player has a big advantage. The
Claclnnatl fteda had one last
year. In fact the entire team
made the pitcher pitch to them all
the time. No White Sox boxman
jud an easy time with Moraa'a
men. and that was the chief rea-
son they won the world's pen-
nant last faH.
George Burns is probably the cla.
of the National league as a lead-off
man. still manager McGraw would
like to drop him down to second or
third place if he could replaceThlm
with a player blessed with Geotge'e
Judgment patience and ability to
take extra bases on the spur of the
moment.
Ross Tonnr or Frank Prisch might
do but. they have not the patience of
the more experienced and more
pmegmauc .Burns.
