Phil Douglas la practically a new
arrival In camp, but he is In great
thape. Phil worked hard at Birming
ham for several weeks before reporting.
Hnd he Is lighter than we have seen him
in many years. There Is every Indica
tion that he has been behaving and that
he has taken McGraw's warning to
li art. Douglas's salary this year will
ilep?nd a great deal on whether he be
haves?and Thil is determined to get
! he double pay which will come to him
if he sticks to the straight and narrow
path.
As for Fred Toney, who reported late
after an attack of abscesses In an ear,
lie looks far better than we had ex
pected. His pitching against Indianap
olis last Thursday shewed that he was
working himself into form at an en
couraging gait and that he will be ready
when the big geng rings. When Toney
Rot to San Antonio he told ui that he
feared he would not be ready for the
opening of the season. But he haa east
the?e fears aside.
