jin winning, 72-54. or may not hear is coming from a cluster of old-time ballplayers and old-time sporting writers. It is tied up with Hall of Fame. The old-timers are complaining that a flock of younger writers are picking modern players and are packing the dust of forgetfulness on many famous stars of the past. The indictment is worth looking over, for it seems to be true.

For example, among those missing are Mordecai Brown and Johnny Kling, the famous Cub battery of forty years ago that fought Mathewson and Bresnahan to a standstill Kid Nicholls, rated by Christy Mathewson as the best pitcher he ever faced. Nlcholl.s starred in Bo.s- Juki- Heckley of the Red.s Harry Heilman Foxx. two great hitters. Brown and Kling plus Brown and Archer fed the Giants and oilier Natloiml la'ugue teum.s enough poison to kill otf a dozen zous. As 'iieat a pilclier as Matty was, Brownie beat him in their last nine meetings.

It i.s too late for Brownie now, so far as unv personal thrill is concerned but many of his fans would appreciate the delayed and deserved iionor. Tlie longer these forgotten old- tliiHT.s are hdt oH, the they are sluived back into ob.scuiTty, Ttieir chance of making the upland country grows bleaker year after year. Hall Fame is too great an institutifm to be overcrowded, A galaxy tiat knows Rutli, Cobb, Cy Young, Mathewson, Alexander, Walter Johnson, Eddie and Jimmy Collins among so many otli- ers should be more carefully watched. It is a mistake to take in too many at one sitting. It is better to have too few.
