HURLER TESREAU HAS JUMPED GIANT TEAM

“Jeff” Tesreau, who came to the Ne\V York National league baseball club as a pitcher from the Texas league In 1910, left the club the other day to join the Bethlehem club of the Steel league. John B. Foster, secretary of the New York club, said that Tesreau recently told Manager McGraw he was “disgusted with baseball and wanted to get into some other business.” Tesreau, according to Foster, is in class 4 of the draft, so that his change was not actuated by desire to escape military service.
