Sept. 13 With the major league pennants conceeded to the Reds. and White Sox New York fans are 'already turning their attention to what the future may hold for local clubs. The Giants are the center of discussion for it appears a certainty mw that John McGraw will tear his team to pieces during the coming winter and start once again to rebuild. McGraws veteran infield has proven a failure. Zimmerman and Doyle have fallen down and the former, now under suspension, will probably play no more in a Giant uniform. Even Hal Chase Is having his troubles for his legs are bothering him and there is no certainty regarding the brand of ball he may be able to put up in the future. Artie Flecher alone has held his own on the Giant infield. . So McGraw stands at the threshold of another shaking up process, just as he did when he decided to let go of MxGann. Iahlon. Mertes, Brown and Devi i a
