TH R E E WORLD'S SERIES STARS Last season saw the arrival of more emhryonle stars limn probably any other in the history of baseball. In fnet, so marked was the rise of three of the year's “finds\ that they lie- enme dominant figures in the world's series. Tesrenu of the (Hants and Be- dient nnd Ond.v of the Bed Sox are the sensational trio. Jeff Tesrenn, the “Ozark hear hunt er,” was picked up by McOrnw two yearn ago and was “ farmed out” to Toronto in the; International league for n year of seasoning. Last spring the Giants were badly in need of new timber for their pitching staff, and the big Missourian filled the gap in great shape. During the early part of the season bis work was eclipsed by Mar- quard's record breaking string of vic tories, but when the Rube went down to defeat before Jimmy Lavender nnd the Chicago Cubs “Tessie” jumped Into tbe gap and kept the Giants in the race mutll the rest c L lh & J > a iia g 5 .

These contributors ure divided Into two classes, who cause the publishers more wakeful nights than any others. Tito one class Is made up of those peo ple who neither have talent nor prep aration for the work and waste reams of good paper and hours of time. The oilier ami the one causing the most worry Is made up of the many peo ple who do have some tulent und suit! eieot education to make a success, but imagine that they cun sit dowu any time and hammer on u prize yarn that ii<> editor should refuse.
