SCHEDULED TODAY
into a game unless It lmd either been
cinched li the Athletics, or hopelessly
lost. Mack was afraid to trust U'eldon
alone In the centre of the diamond when
nn thine was at stake. This season the
Wllllainsport rlcht-hnndcr be Ran well
Shcutlv after tlie crack of the starting
pistol he defeated Wallet Johnson. In
stead of clvitii: him renew cd conlldeijce
that vietnr seems to have plaed havoc
with his contiol and he has not im
proved in this respect Ht all.
The opposition hns never heen able to
hit Vcknff conslstentl v, but tliej
didn't have to. The waltmc paine was
preferable and Benerall won for the
club which was faclnc ckoff. Captain
1 1. 1 Thomas mid Connie Mack have said
a uumher of times that Wjckoff had
as much speed as any pitcher In the
leiiKiie. jot his nbllltj to break the ball
at sharp ancles and to buzz It through
with a lot of sxied hns been entirely
offsei hj his lack of contiol. It wns
thoiiKht that after he had been allowed
to work fitfullj for one season he would
ko In and he a bU winner, hut he has
been a complete disappointment to Muck
this season and" shows no signs of get
ting over his wlldnesjs.
This same thine happened with Byron
Houck, another richl-handcr, whom Mack
nursed alone for about three seasons and
who was as wild at the llnlsh as he -was
when he hesan. Houck was released to
Baltimore, hut Jumped to the Brookljn
Federals. With that club he showed the
same old weakness and has not been abl
to win as he should In the outlaw or

Former Lightweight Champion Easy

MILWAUKEE, Wis.. Sept I9.-JQa
Mandot earned a clear shade over Ad

night. Five of the ten rounds went to
Mandot, three er even and two were
all that Wolgast could claim.
The ex-ehampion ehowd poorly at all
stages, and only in the seventh round did
he show any of his old-time class. This
was the time when he forced Mandot
against the ropes several times peppering
him with rights and lefts Howuver, he

Athletic Star Who Will
Cover World's Series for
Evening Ledger Familiar
With Newspaper Details.
Eddio Collins, who will contribute n
dally article to the 13vr.Ni.vo I.edcibii dur
ing the world's series In October, is not
a novlco at thu kind of work. Everv on
knows that the great second-sneker of
the Athletics Is a clever, accurate base
ball writer of special stories, but there
are some who do not know that hn can
go through the daily worli with ns much
facilitv as the man who covers an entire
major league season.
Collins performed his best dally work
last year during the season. His storM
weie widely read. This year Collins Is
asain golnt; to write the series, and with
his knowiedse of sust what the fans
want it is safe to say that there will be
no better stories In the country on the
big series than those printed In the
EvjJ.VIKO I.EIMJBR.
Theplajers, contrary to nan Johnson's
statement last full, will b allowed to do
nil the writing they desire. Naturally
there will mt be more than two or three
at most who will do their own work, but
Collins is among that number. For that
reason. If fur no other, his stories will
be mom valuable than those purporting
to tie written by other plajers.

By EDWARD R. BUSHNELL
Franklin Field was a veritable oven
jisterday, and the football men suffered.
H.milj the ilnj' the coaches would have
jeli'ited to glv" their men the first taste
of .-criniimiglng. Th. time before the
j Initial co'itesl with Gettysburg, one week
heme, however. Is nlrend.v perilously
thoil. and 1 1 1 1 .4 sort of stienuous work
was absolutely Imperative to permit the
coaches to pass on the respective merits
of the candidates for the line. Although
it was much too hot and sultry for fool
ball. It wii3 a good dnv to reduce weight.
Too many of the linemen me still car
iylng excess cargoes of weight.
The ch.ii avter of the scrimmage work
in which the linemen Indulged was con
lined to charging exercises. Th" of
fensive side had seven men on the line
of scrimmage, the defense four and llw.
What the conches thus tiled to teach
was the proper manner to break through
ni'd to check opposing linemen without
using the hands. The waj- the coaches
w diked the men had much the same
effect as a tubbing contest for oarsmen.
Tn another part of the field Head
Coach Brooke lmd the candidates for
the brfckfleld doing work almost as
strenuous Embrjn fiuarterhncks, half
backs nnd fullbacks inn through signal",
hurled nnd caught forwnid passes,
chased up and down the Held under
kicks and even tried a little work in
running back punt".
Just now the conches are pot giving
any Inkling as to the composition of th"
team In this game. Hut It Is almost
certain that Captain .loiirneay will get
first call at centie. The only unewtain,
thing about his work is the amount of
speed he will develop. To play centre ,n
cordlng to the Pennsylvania system he
will have to show great activity nnd be
able, to back up not only hl.s own position,
but to help wheiHusr an extin man Is
lic.d.d.
There are two membeis of last j-car's
freshman learn who seem to have caught
the coaches' pjes as candidates for line
honors. They are Oeorgo Wharton Top
per. Jr. and Wltherow. Pepper Is a
man built much on the same linos as
r'rank Plekarskl, though weighing more
than this All-Americnn guard. Wltherow
tarries about 2J.1 pounds nnd is not yet
trained down to hnrd muscle. Harris
and Hussell, who played on last j ear's
team, ought to retain line positions. As
for the nds, Coach Dlckhon has not
given an intimation as to who will be
his llrst iholces here. ..either has George
Brooke Indicated what men are his fa
voiltes for back Held positions. On a
gueis. the mnn to stnrt at quarterback
will be Vic Ballon or Irwin; two of the
other backs. Jones and Matthews, while
GottwnlH or Moflltt would complete n
prctt good backfleld.
At tho t'niverslty of Michigan Coach
rieldlnjj 11. Yost has resented tho con
clusion of one Eastern football wiiter
who predicted that when Michigan pln.
ed llarvurd at Cambridge on October 31,
the Crimson would not use Its best plavs
but would resnro them for the Prince.'
ton and Yale teams. Yost has no leason
to care what plays Harvard uses, hut it
piques his piide to have the Inference
drawn that his team will not p., Ini- ,
portnnt enough to make the Crimson ex
tend itself.
It may b stated light now that Har
vard hasn't any intention of submitting
to a beating by .Michigan, and tho Crim-
sou maj be depended upon to use lis
best pl.iys and plajcra. Tho surmise
that thu Harvard would use onls
"simple" plajs against Michigan and re
serve the Intricate ones for Princeton
and Yale shows the extent to which
manj persons overestimate so. called
football strategy Harvard and Michigan
will have the advantage of about the
same brand of coaching, and victory or
defeat will depend rather upon tho calibre
of the men than their trick or compli
cated formations.
Trick plays for which secret practice
Is thought necosftarj never icprerrnl f.
per cent, of a team's strength. On the
contrary, men a.r what count. If ifni
vard should resolve to start the Michi
gan game without Ilrlckloj or Mahaii In
th back Held, ihcre might be ime
ground for the supposition that Michi
gan was underestimated. It ought to be
thoroughly undeistood by this time that
the utrentjth of the Harvard eleven will
depend more upon the culibro of the en
tire team, partlculaily of the b.tckflelil
than upon anj new football which Coach
Haughton or an one else can teach
them. In a te.im which has nbsoluteij
mastered the rudiments, of tho game dnd
can do the elementary things an near
pcrfcctlv as the Harvard plujers do, nil
the tiick plajs that ever were known
wouldn't Increase the strength of that
team 5 per cent.
