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 H mathematically possible for
the Phillies to overtake the Chicago club
and move Into fourth place, the odds
npnlnst such a contingency tire great.

places with their Philadelphia rivals. facilities, calls for an ocean vovngo. That
Is Just what the majority of Mack's men
do not want and will not take. Led by
Ira Thomas, the main body of cham
pions lias voted never to board a sea
The miserable fielding gam put up by
the PIttsburghers Is not likely to be re
peated this afternoon In cither game.
Taking Issue with a contemporary is
11 pastime that Is far from popular and
generally speaking i bordering on tho
breach of sport writing etiquette, yot w
are bound to take exception to tho dub
bing of the Pirates as "shiftless." If
there Is a club In tli National League
that is thoroughly nnd completely prac
ticed In the art of shifting that club is
the Pittsburgh organization. In the first
plnce they have shifted all over the per
centage map this season. At one tlm
they were so far awuy In tho lend for
the flag Jthat the other seven teams al
most gave up hope. Not only have tho
Pirates been at tho top, but they have
adorned the bottom. Now they are In
fifth place and ore likely to be shoved
flown the ladder one more rung by tho
Thlllles.
It Is noticeable that the bulk of the
plnvers who are to go bannstorming
through the West after the worlrt' series
are not the ones who accompanied Char-
going vessel if It can bo avoided. The
trouble was tho Macks mada a couplo
of trips to Cuba and the young men uf
feied mal-dc-mere so severely that they
hae never forgotten It.
The easiest prediction, excepting, of
course, that tho Athletics will win thn
American Leaguo championship. Is that
the proposal of President James A. Gil
more to have his Federal organization
play in the world's series will be turned
down flatly nnd quickly by the members
of the National Commission. In a letter
to the three members of that august
bodv. the Tedoral head states that lie
would like to have nn nrmistlce declared,
during which the winner in hl leagu
might indulge in a friendlv tilt with the
winners of tho real world's series.
The main trouble with Mr. Gilmore'o
argument Is that he does not and cannot
prove to the satisfaction of anyone who
knows, that the Federal Leaguo is of
major league calibre To bo sure there
art- a number of good players in the
league, but th ""tars of world-wid
fame" of whom he suak.i. ran be counted
on the thumb and forefinger
ATHLETICS WANT
TO CLINCH FLAG
TWO HARNESS MEETS
ARE SCHEDULED TO
No man in tho country, with tho pos
sible exception of Connie Mack, is half '
so well qualified to wtlto Inside baseball
ns Eddie Collins, the world's piemler '
fcecond baseman nnd extra-base slusger.
Eddie has consented to write a review of
each gnmo of the approaching world's
series for tho Evening Ledger nnd it Is
safe to say that his comments on that j
baseball classic will bo more widely read ,
than that of any othor writer In America. '
During the past year Collins has writ- i
ten u number of excellent articles which I
have appeared from tlmo to time In va-
rlous magazines. His "Mack and His
Mackmen" and "Pitchers I have Faced"
made a big hit with the baseball public
because they were! splendidly written and
contained fucts which no one but a great
ball player himself could know. Need
loss to say Collins writes his own articles.
Fuithermore he writes on a standard
i typewriter with all tho case of the fin
ished reporter. When all of tho public
j realizes that McGraw's ideal of a bnse-
b.ill player Is able to comment on the
I game as ably as ho can piny It, the name
of Edward Trowbridge Collins will be
I raised to an even greater height in the
I eyes of the fans then hitherto.
' That the Evening Ledger Is fortunate
in liming Collins to write tho world's
.--i les Is not to bo questioned. These
articles will appear in all editions of the
L"vnlng Ledger.
THE WORLD'S SERIES

EDDIE COLLINS
would bo a bit on the order of tho
carl without tho horse. It was after
(he Now York Giants had been so
completely routed by tho Athletics
last October that John McGraw said
Kiddle Collins was "tho most valuable
player In the game."
Therefore tho World's Series of 1014
without tho

EDDIE COLLINS will writo nn after
math of each game for Philadelphia's
new afternoon newspaper.
Of courso tho Athletics will repre

ity to cross tho finish lino nn easy

BACK FIELD DEVELOPMENT
TASK FOR PENN COACHES
Football Experts Concentrating all Thought and Energy
Along JLhose JLines Harvard, Dartmouth and Cornell
Favored in This Rcspeot, as 1913 Quartets are Intact.
By EDWARD R. BTSHNEM.
Whllo the coaches at Franklin Field aro
concentrating nil their thought and en
ergy upon tho development of a ground
gaining back field, Harvard, Dartmouth
and Cornell arc giving thanks that their
veteran back field quartets of 1913 nro
Intact, and promise to bo better this year
than over. While theso universities have
merely to hold their back field men to
gether, the Quakers must fill every one
of theso four positions with n new man.
The effectiveness of Harvard's back field
ought to bo greatly Increased this year,
If such a quartet could do more deadly
execution than that wrought by Bricklcy,
Mahan, Logan and Bradlee. About all
Head Coach Percy Haughton has to do
Is to keep theso men In shape and think
up now plays for them. Unless some
thing now unforeseen happens no pos
sible change could strengthen this group.
Every mnn Is a star of the first magnl
tudo In his particular position, and the
four work together with the greatest pre
cision. It Is idle to dwell upon tho good
points of these men because every ono
knows how wonderfully Brlckloy can
drop and place kick, run the ends and
buck the line; how Mahan can punt,
run back kicks and sprint around end;
how Bradlee can hit tho line, and Logan
run the team.
But Pennsylvania men aro probably
more Interested In tho strength of Dart
mouth nnd Cornell behind tho lino be
cause tho Quakers have to play both of
these teams. Dartmouth Is every whit
as well fortified here ns Harvard. Last
year Llewellyn and Ghee alternated at
quarterback, but Ghee was the better
man. Llowellyn has graduated, leaving
Gliee In full charge. Dartmouth's other
three backs aro on hand again. Theso
inciudo Captain Whitney and Curtis tit
the halfback positions, and Murdock at
fullback. There Isn't much to chooso be
tween the Dartmouth nnd Ilnrvnid back
fields. That Indicates how strong Dart
mouth Is. In some respects Whitney Is
a bettor player than Btlckley. He is
every bit -as fast, and ns a lino bucker
he Is superior to the Harvard captain.
Only In kicking Is Bricltley his superior.
Ghee Is a Letter man to operate tho
forward pass than Logan. Likewise he
runs his team faster and Is a better
Individual player. Mahan Is superior to
Curtis, but there Is nothing to choose
between Murdoch, of Daitmoiith, and
Bradlee, of Harvard. But think what a
load Is taken from the minds of tho
Dartmouth coaches when they realize
that they now have n hack field which
can't be Improved!
Dr. A. H. Shnrpe. of Cornell, may try
to Improve, his back field, hut ho will be
pretty well lortltled even If ho decides to
stand pat on his present quartette, which
did so much to win from Pennsylvania
last year. Last ear's back Held was
made up of Barrett at quaiterhack, C'oll
yer and Phillip! nt halfbacks and I.ahr at
fullback. On tho offense Frlt, now grad
uated, was brought back to a halfback
position. With tho exception ot I'Vltz tills
offensive machlno is still available It Is
a pretty well rounded combination, too,

liest quartei backs, punters nnd drop

There Is no disguising tho fact that at

Great Improvement Shown
by Griffith, Newcomb and
Sloan Puts Them in Line
for Amateur Singles Championship.
ATLANTIC CITY, N. J Sept. 17.-In-terest
centres here today on the amateur
championship at singles In the Eighth
Annual Tournament of- the Westy Ho
gans. Without exception, this meeting

shooting fraternity In tho country, anil
perfect scores will doubtless only figure
In the major awuids. Conditions are
Ideal again today for the trap shooteis,
and early lound In this competition fore,
casted great shooting.
Woolfolk Henderson, national amateur
champion at both singles and doubles, of
Kentucky, looms up at the top of the
field. He will have no mean task here,
however, with the old cracks that are
appearing from every squad. Jesse Grif
fith, of Philadelphia, has been credited
with the beet performance to dato In

It was this trio from the ranks of the
Quaker t'ity contingent that biought

Keystono gunners netted the grand total
of 4SS out of the possible 600, tha best
set up to date. Al Hell, Allentown, and
3Ylter S. Behm, Reading, made up the
this writing the outlook at Pennsylvania
is not very bright behind the line. Them
aro plenty of candidates for each position
who show Individual skill, but four new
men will havo to bo welded together to
act ns a unit, and It would be little short
of miraculous if they should Bhow
strength compnrablo to that of tho Dart
mouth backs. So far not a man Is surs
of a position hero. It will require several
days moro of signal drill and even some
scrimmaging for tho coaches to select
oven a tentative backfield.
Finding a good quarterback still re
mains Coach Brooke's big problem. He
has been trying Ballou, Irwin and Mer
rill here and all give promise, though
Ballou Is by far tho most finished player
of the lot. If the quarterback problem Is
solved soon It will be an easier matter to
find three running mates for him.
To Pat Dwyor has been assigned the
task of finding a centre to succeed Simp
son, of last year's team. Ho Is now con
sidering three men for the position. Cap
tain Journeay, Boric, of lost year's fresh
man team, and Butler, who played th
position on tho scrubs. Tho position Is
now to Journeay, but there are so many
big men for guard and tackle and the
need of a centre so pressing, that Jour
neay hopes to win tho pivotal position by
the time tho first game Is played. What
Journeay needs more than anything else
Is speed, for the Pennsylvania style of
playing this position requires a man of
grent activity who can take enre of him
self nnd then lend a hand wherever he Is
needed.
Conch Brook, of Pennsylvania, has
picked a provisional team and plans to
send them through a few simple forma
tions today. The lineup of yesterday
gives some Indication of the probable
makeup of tho team today. Captain
Journeay, as wm predicted. Is to play
centre. He Is the only mnn definitely ,
placed. Flanking him for guards In ths
present lineup will be Wlthcrow and
Nowald; at tackles, Harris and Russell:
and ends, Carter and nockcfeller. Irwin
Is to start out at quarter and Moffet at
fullback. Gotwcls nnd Jones will fill In.
This combination will be shifted fre
quently.Murdock and Tucker alternated
with Carter and Itockefeller at end yes
terday. Mike Dorlzas continues to im
prove and Is pretty sure to make a place.
Ballou and Merrill had turns with "Doc"
Irwin nt the pilot position. Vreeland did
not put In nn appearance, as he Is study
ing for an examination. Mathews re
lieved Moffet at Intervals. Ho is big anil
speedy and as "consistent a drop kicker
as there is on the field. Gotwcls at
half made a good Impression. He Is a
llttlo light, hut his wonderful speed makes
up for that deficiency. Hughes Is likely
to be a dark horse. Although In school
last year, ho did not play. Ho causht
