; probable he won the National League p-n-nant
for the Uotoii Bravis A victory
for th New Yorker would have meaht
they wore still close on the heels of their
opponents with a two and a half same
margin. However, when the deciding run
was ushered in Tor the PhllHc. MeOraw's

Kami; than lie won during the entire
teason o.' 1913 With the Ph Hies j.Inx ntf
InairCorent ball behind him throualiout
tht pi cent eamp.ilpn. Alexander's record
Is much more remarkable than would
appear from mere futures. Mnlhewson
Is today tied in number of games won
with the rhllly pitcher, but It must be
remembered that Hatty has. had a tnm
behind him which has been playing up
to top form most of the year, and still
making a tight.
The difference between the team play
of the Phl'ie nnd the Cllnnts woa not
eo grout a year rgo as It Is today, hence
the record established by Alexander thi
reason is one of the best made In th"
last decade when all of the circum
stances are taken Into eotisl leratlon.
Last season '"Alex" won 2 names ano
lost S. while his veteran rival. Christy
Mfithewon bad a record of 25 and 11
"When the reioidi of the two men were
compiled last uson on the modern bntts.
that Is. according to the average number
of earned runs per came. Matty led Alex
by 73 runs, as the opponents of tin
former were able to average only 2.W
runs pe.r g.imc. while the Infer wis
scored on at the rate of 2.73 runs The
difference in thoso tlgiircs Is moie than
accounted for by the fact that the Giants
finished first and the Phllllles second In
ho race.
"With about three more week" to go.
there is llttv doubt that Alexander will
make a mark higher than that set bv
tattv last year when the Giant won 23
victories.
What a man of Alexander's caliber
would do on i flub of the Mcdiiliduddy
mold is not dtflUult to determine.
The Flttbureh rlub Is here tnd.T' to

Expert Opinion Is That
Yearlings Will Be Success
ful Candidates for Some
Varsity Football Positions.
By EDWARD R. BUSHNELL
At the end of two days of preliminary
football practice at Pennsylvania there
ttio two outstanding features. One Is that
prtctlcally the full strength of last ycai's
l'"t clmian eleven will be bidding with
considcinblo piospcct of success for posi
tion on tills yem's vurslty eleven. The
other is that the material for the fresh
man eleven ptonilscs to be the best that
I'cnnsjlvanla ever had.
The hltuntiou among this oai's ftcsh
tnan candidates is most unusual. It
seems that neatly evety mun who teports
to Clinch Young wns the unanimous se
lection an an "all scholnsllc" star for
some position from some important city
or section of the country. Of course a
lot of these men ate boomed in ttnwnr
i anted fashion by their ovcrzcalous
li lends, but except for their moro youth
tul appomanco tho casual observer on
r'tunkllu rie'ld couldn't tell which Miund
'in composed of varsity and which of

These, new men como from tho Xcw
hiulaiid Suites, from Xew Yoik City and
."jlute, fiom Xew Jpr..ey and lVniwyl
vanl.i. .Some of tlicin will uiidouhtcdly
fall by the wayside, but a good many
night to turn out well. Five of the best
looking men on the tlrst oar up mil hall
fioin Xow liigliiinl. They include Umond
i.'-ip.ile. who wus tin all rcholahtlc full

Commerclnl High School team. Kaymoud

Thi'ie aro half a dozen other men who
In physique compnio faxonitily with tho
men already mentioned and who .no now

too, that tho main body .if tho fre-liman
candidates won't report for 'ork until the

similar Indus arrives at that t me wo can
sio whPio tho Varsity olovon will get

C0STELL0 GAINS VERDICT
Tyrone's Slugging Tells Tale Against

Mainly through hH superior slugging
ability. Tyrone Costullo earned the ver
dht over Otto Hughes, of th.-- ITnlted
States Marino Corps, In the ilnal bout at
the Fnirmount A. C. last night. Tho
light was far from n sclcnllll? one.
Costello gained un advantage In the
flrst round by opening an old cut on
Hughes' enr, which bothered tho latter
considerably throughout the le-malndcr of
the light. Hughes fought baHt gamely,
but Ills rival's hitting ability gained tho
decision.
Tommy Itlley nnd Dannv Whnlen went

Candidates Hustling
Morning and Afternoon
Practice on Franklin Field.
Seelback, Inst year's basketball cap
tain and end on tho Pennsylvania foolbnll
team, has reported. Ho Is In great Bhnpe
and pounds heavier. Lusl year ho suffered
from a broken shoulder which kept lum
out most ot tho year. TJarrlng nnother
such accident ho will bo a strong ciuull
date for tho Penn eleven.
Wray, star llncmnn of last year's fresh
man team, nlso made his nppcaranee, nnd
was sent to "Ily" Dickson as an end
possibility. Ho weighs ISO pounds and la
extremely swift-footed.
"Vic" Ilallou, last year's scrub quarter
back, got out his togs and made his initial
showing of the season. Jones nlso was
among tho day's arrivals. Ho has been
BUtnmciIng at n Maine camp. Ho played
a splendid lino plunging game Inst yoir on
tho sciiib eleven. Ho Is a half-back pos
sibility. The sqtiml wns put through practice
both in tho morning and afternoon. It
Is evident that Coach Urooko Is not
going to leave a thing undone to make
It a winning season. Hrookc continued
his practice of tho day before, giving the
bnck tudlmoittary practice In running
with tho ball, laying paitlculnr emphasis
on the handling of the pigskin. Among
the candidates Jones, Mathews, Hughes
and Tlgh gave good promise. "Dy" Dick
son continued his training of the ends.
It la evident from tho number of men
'assigned to" him that his work of tilling
lnvthe wings Is a hard one. Wray and
Cnrtcr displayed good speed for their
size. Murdoch. Is bock and after his old
plnce. He hasValncd 10 pounds and hns
Improved In speed. Ulg Koons Is also
In good condition. Urquhait nnd Gott
wals did some great work In handling
forward passes.
Despite the fnct that the tresnman can
has not been rounded, the yearlings con
tinue to appear.
NORTHEAST BOYS PRACTICE
Hayes and Hendrens May Not Play
Football This Season.
Owing to the absence of Coach John
son, only a short football practice waa
held by Northeast High yesterday. Cap
tain Webb set the men to work tackling,
while a signal practice wa3 also held.
Chiefly kick and forward-pass formations
ensued. A flftecn-mlnutc scrimmage was
held between the Varsity and Scrub",
In which none of tho veterans took part.
It was learned that little hone Is en
tertained that Hayes and Hendrens will
bo able to play for Northeast this sea
jwi. Hayes, last year's centre, was
stricken with typhoid and has only an
even chnngo of recovery. There is no
possibility of Ids returning to the game.
Hendrens, who played fullback last year,
Is back In his studies.

sprinter and Joint holder of the intercol
legiate record of 9 1-5 seconds for 100

The HUDSON Six-40 for 1915 weighs 2,890
pounds a seven-passenger car.
Built by old standards, such a car would weigh
around 4,000 pounds.
Cars are all being built lighter, still no other
maker has attained this lightness yet. So some
will argue that sturdy cars can't be a3 light as this.
But thousands of these cars went out last year.
In thousands of hands, on all sorts of roads, not
a single shortcoming developed. Never has a car
proved stauncher.
The difference is simply this:
Aluminum takes the place of cast iron. Drop
forgings take the place of castings. Better design
ing combines strength with lightness in a thousand
details. One, for instance, is a tubular propeller
shaft.
No More Over -Tax
Needless weight was a heavy over-tax on tires.
HUDSON engineers have stopped it. In addition,
their new-type motor cuts fuel cost 30 per cent.
Expense excess is out-of-date. The day of
modest size and power and price has come. This
new-model HUDSON typifies the car of the future.
It is one of the handsomest cars ever built. It
has many attractions found in no other car
beauties, comforts and conveniences.
48 engineers headed by Howard E. Coffin
have devoted four years to this car. Come and
see the advances the scores of new things they've
accomplished.
