PHILLIES PLAY DOUBLE-HEADER WITH PIRATES TODAY -ATHLETICS VISIT DETROIT
PENNSYLVANIA'S HOPE FOR SUCCESS ON THE GRIDIRON THIS YEAR CENTRES IN THIS GROUP OF HUSKY ATHLETES
The coaches, trainers and advisors are working like Trojans in an effort to develop a great football machine out of this band" of aspiring Brickleys. The most difficult matter for the coaches now is to form a backfield that will be able to hold its own.
BY DEFEATING PIRATES TWICE
TODAY PHILS CAN MOVE PEG
Double-Header Scheduled for This Afternoon at National
League Park Post-Season Barnstorming Tours
Will be Taken by Only Eight Local Men.
"While it Is mathematically possible for
tlio Phillies to overtake the Chicago club
and move Into fourth place, the odd
ngalnst such a contingency mo groat.
There la practically the Ulfffjiieo be
tween the local National League club mul
a mat division piaee as there is uotween
he Athletics and tho Boston Red Sox;
' which means that the sap Is too wlilo.
'However, the Phllllos can anil probably
will top the second division. Just at the
ptescnt moment Dooin's boys are in sixth
place, but by successfully meeting the
IMtsburghs today in the double-header
the Pirates will bo forced to exchange
' places with their Philadelphia rivuls.
The miserable fielding kubw put up by
the Pitt-dmrghers Is not likely to bo re
peated this afternoon In cither game.

Eenerally speaking Is bordering on tho
breach of sport writing etiquette, yet w-
4 nre bound to take exception to the dub-
Ww t.1.,.- nt V.rt Tlit,iQ na "ol. I f 1 1 no a ' Xf
ft there is a club In tho Xatlonal League
f that is thoroughly and completely prac-
ff ticed in the art of shifting that club Is
i the Pittsburgh organization. In the flr
ft placo tliey have shifted all over the per
f centage map tills season. At one time
S they wore so far away in the lead for
f the (lag that the other seven teams al
e most gave up hope. Not only have th"
f Pirates been at the top. but th.y hav"
adorned the bottom. Now they nr. in
IKth place and are likely to be shoved
flown the ladder one more rung by tho
Phillies.
Lit Is noticeable that the bulk of tho
Elnyers who -ire t" co haTi'tornllng
jj;( arc t' e r wbn tccomiunfd rh.tr-
ley Comlskey around the globe last win
ter. Those men have hnd enough travel
ing, and the majority of tliem realize
that a rest throughout thy winter months
will do them more good than playing.
Yet tho Western trip, which will be sur
named the Athletics-Phillies tonr will
only last fiom about October 10 until the
same date in December. The present
roster of the two teams has only three
Phllly names on It and livo Athletic
players. The former are Alexander, Kll
llfer and Byrne, and the latter oio Ben
der, Bush, Schnng, Murphy and Walsh.
Xo doubt several of the Mnckmen were
frightened away from participation in
this Invasion by the news that several
games would be played in thr Hawalan
1 Islands, which, owing to the lack of tube
I facilities, calls for an ocean vovugc. That
is Just what tho malnritv nf Mack's men
I do not want and will not take. Led by
' Ira Thomas, the main body of ch.im-
i pions naa voted never to board a pea
going vessel If It ran be avoided.

During the past year Collins has writ
ten a number of excellent articles which
have appeared fiom time to time in va
rious magazines. His "Mack and Ills
Mnckmen" and "Pitchers I havo Faced"
made a big hit with the baseball public
because they ere splendidly wiittcn and
contained facts which no one but a great
ball plaer himself could know. Xeed
less to say Collins writes Ills own articles.
Furthermoio he writes on a stundard
typew liter with all tho ease of the fin
ished reporter. When all of the public
realizes that McG raw's ideal of a base
ball player Is able to commuit on tho
it, tlic name

BACK FIELD DEVELOPMENT
TASK FOR PENN COACHES
Football Experts Concentrating all Thought and Energy
Along Those Lines Harvard, Dartmouth and Cornell
Favored in This Respect, as 1913 Quartets are Intact.
By EDWAHD R. BUSHNEI1I1
AVhllo tho coaches at Franklin Field arc
concentrating nil their thought and en
ergy upon tlio development of a ground
gaining back Held, Harvard, Dartmouth
and Cornell nro giving thnnlcs that their
ctctnn back field quartets of 1913 aro
intact, nnd promlso to bo better this year
than ever. 'While theso universities havo
merely to hold their back Held men to
gether, tho Quakers must Mil every one
of these four positions with n. now man.
Tho effectiveness of Harvnid's back Held
ought to bo greatly increased this year,
If such a quartet could do more deadly
execution than that wrought by Urlckley,
Mnliiin, Logan and Hradlee. About nil
Head Coach 1'ercy liaughton lias to do
is to keep theso men in shape and think
up now playa for them. Unless some
thing now unforeseen happens no pos
sible chnngo could strengthen this group.
Every man Is a star of the first magni
tude In his pattlcular position, and tho
lour work together with the greatest pre
cision. It Is Idle to dwell upon tho good
points ot theso men because every ono
knows how wonderfully Drlckley can
drop and placo kick, run the ends and
buck tlio line: how Jlahan can punt,
run back kicks and sprint around end:
how Hiadlee can hit the line, and Logan
uin the team.
Hut Pennsylvania men aie probably
more Intel cstcd In tho sttensth of Dart
mouth and Cornell behind the line be
cause tho Quakers have to play both of
these teams. Dnitmouth is every whit
as well fortified here us Ilntvard. Last
year Llewellyn and Ghee alternated nt
quartet back, but CShto was the letter
man. Lluwellyn has graduated, leaving
Ghcu In full charge. Dartmouth's other
tilt ce backs aiu on hand again. Thcio
Inciudo Captain Whitney nnd Curtis at
Hie halfback po.sitlons, and II in dock at
fullback. Thcio Isn't much to choose be
tween the Dnitmouth and Harvard back
fields. Tiiut Indicates how strong Dart
mouth Is. In bom.o respects Whitney Is
a better player than Btickley. He In
every bit as fast, and as a line bucker
he is superior to the llarvntd captain.
Only In kicking Is Hrlckley his superior.
Ghee Is a better man to operate the
fotvvaid pass than Logan. Likewise he
runs his team faster nnd is a better
individual player. Italian Is superior to
Curtis, but there is nothing to choose
between Mm dock, of Dartmouth, and
Ht.idlee, of Harvard. Tint think what a
load H taken fiotn the minds of tlio
D irtmnuth conches when they tonllsto
that they now have a back field which
can't be impiovcd!
Dr. A. II. Shnipp, of Cornell, may try
to impiovo his back field, but ho will be
pretty well fortified even If he dcc,lde-i to
Hand pat on his present quartette-, which
did fo much to win ftom Pennsylvania
last year. Last year's back field was
mndo up of liauett at quarterback, Coll
yer and Phlllipl at halfbacks and L.tlir at
fullback. On the offonso Fritz, now giad
untc'd, was brought back to a halfonck
position. With the e( option of Frits! this
ott nsive machine Is .still available. It Is
a piettv will luiindid combination, too,
nnd dlrecti ii bv Hairrtt, v hn is one of the
lest quiii tnrbneks, punters and (Hop

Theio is no disguising tho fact that nt

ATLANTIC PITY. JJ. J Sept. 17.-Tn-terest
centres Iieio today on tho nmateur
championship ut blngles In tlio eighth
Annual Tournament of tho Westy Ho
Bans. Without exception, this meeting
lias brought together tho pc; of the
shooting fraternity In tho country, and
perfect scores will doubtless only figure
in tho major awards Conditions nro
Ideal again today for the trap shooteis,
and early rou uls In this competition tore
icibtcd great sboot'ng.
Wooifolk llemieisun, national amateur
ehuinphm at butli sinslea nnd doubles, of
Kentucky, looms up (n the top of the
field. J Jo n ill havo no mean task lure,
however, with tin- old cracks that aio
appealing from ivery squad. Jtrae CHIf,
llth, of Philadelphia has been credited
witn tbo best perfui m.tiico to date in
his record of Si3 brcn " out of his ccn
tuiy ullutment in th.' State race yester
day Charley XevvLom likewise ncems
to bo rounding into his old-time form,
and llany II K o.m alw promises to hold
up the Ph 1 idrlphia, md.
It was this tlio from tho ranks of the
Quaker City contingent thut brought
home the State title to Pennsylvania yes
terday foi the thiid stialght time The
Keybtouo gunners netted the grand total
of M out of the possible &. the best
set up to date Al Hell, Allentown, and
Walter S. Cehm, IU-ddlng, made up the
this writing tlio outlook at Pennsylvania
Is not very bright bohlnd tlio line. There
are plenty of candidates for each position
who show Individual skill, but four now
men will havo to bo welded together to
act as a unit, nnd It would bo little Bhort
of miraculous If they Bhould show
strength comparablo to that of tho Dart
mouth backs. So fnr not a man Is suro
of a position hero. It will require several
days moro of signal drill and oven somo
scrimmaging for tho coaches to select
oven n tentntlvo backfield.
Finding a. good quarterback still re
mains Coach Brooke's big problem. Ho
hns been trying Dallou, Irwin and Mer
rill hero nnd nil give promise, though
Biillou is by far tho most finished player
of tho lot. If tho quartet back problem Is
solved soon It will bo an easier matter to
find three running mates for him.
To Pat Dwyer lias been assigned th9
task of finding n centra to succeed Simp
son, of last year's team. Ho Is now con
sidering three men for the position. Cap
tain Joutnuay, Uorie, of last year's fresh
man team, nnd Butler, who played tho
position on tho scrubs. The position Is
now to Journeay, hut there are so many
big men for guard nnd taeklo and tho
need of a centio so pressing, that Jour
neay hopes to win the pivotal position by
tho time the first gnme Is played. What
Journenv needs moro than anything clso
Is speed, for the Pennsylvania stylo of
playing this position requires a man ot
great activity who can tnke care of him
self nnd then lend a hand wherever ho la
needed.
Conch Brook, of Pennsylvania, has
picked a provisional tcum and plans to
send them through a few simple forma
tions today, Tho lineup of yesterday
gives some indlcntlon of the probablo
makeup of tho tenm todny. Unptnin
Journeay, as was predicted. Is to play
centre. He is the only man definitely
placed. Flanking him for gunrds In tho
present lineup will be 'Wltherow and
Novvald; at tackles, Harris and Russell:
and ends, Carter and Rockefeller. Irwin
is to start out at quaiter nnd Jloffot nt
fullback. Gotwels and Jones will fill In.
This combination will bo shifted fre
quently. JIurdock nnd Tucker alternated
with Carter nnd Rockefeller at end yes
terday. Mike Dorlzas continues to im
piovo and Is pretty sure to make a place.
Uallou and Merrill had turns with "Doc"
Irwin at tho pilot position. Vrecland did
not put In nn appearance, as he Is study
ing for an examination. Mathews re
lieved Moffct nt Intervals. Ho Is big and
speedy and as consistent a drop kicker
as there Is on the field. Gotwels at
half made n good impression. He is a
little light, but his wonderful speed makes
up for that deficiency. Hughes is likely
to bo a dark horse. Although In school
Inst year, lie did not play. Ho caught
on tho freshman baseball team lust year.
Jack Dalton, all-American quarterback
on tho Navy team, was out today to
assist coachlns'.
Of last year's team. Crane, Simpson,
Marshall nnd Peden were out. Mercer,
tho old American fullback of two yenra
ago, was also present. Among the older
graduates were noticed Dr. Robert Torry,
Davisson Kennedy, Bill Young and Chnr
lie Corson. Hen Cllne, Swarthmore'a
captain, was nlpo q morning visitor.
bnlanco of tho squad, but tho former
three excelled,
J, C. Grlinth, of Philadelphia, and Jay
Clark. Jr., of Worcester, Mass.. tied last
I year for tlio championship ut singles with
S3 broken in the 100. Clark won tho shoot-
off by grassing 20 In a row. Dr. h. a.
Richards, of Roanoke, Va., champion
shot of that State, joined tho ranks of
tho entrants in this race. Richards has
Just como up from tho South where lie

the other notables to stall off on tins
