Will quo liier season pass without ill« fans on the big league circuit being
able to witness the star catching of Johnny Kling, the Chicago Nationals'
grenl backstop, or the great I silting of Mike Poulin, of tho New York Na
tionals? ' Recently It was thought that Donlln would attacli ills signature
to a contract, but for some unkmwn reason he did not and has announced
lie will not play during tho 1910 season. King has asked the National Commis
sion to reinstate him, so the chances are that he may wear a Cub uniform
this year. As Donlin and Kling are two of the greatest players in the coun
try, Ihe'fans are anxious to see them cavort in front of them once more.
