C. Sebastian Dooln, leader ot tho run

douhloheniler is plaimcil. tho first be

series, which Is tho lust to bo played be
tween those clubs this season.
Having won tlx straight Raines, the
I'hllB nro becoming moro cotnldcnt each
day that they may land In the hist
dHIslon. Somo real cause, too, has been
shown for tho belief that It Is within the
ranso of possibility for tho Dnlsles to
move up by the consistent losing if the
St. LouIb and Chicago teams. The Braves
liavo been dueling with the former, and
put them out In all their lerent eiicounti'is
except the oil" staged ) o.tcrda , which ie
uiltotl In u tie ut the end of u dozen in
nings. "While tho Iliaves were tailing to land
their final game from tho Cardinals, the
Giants wero completing a. clenn-up scries
with tho Cincinnati Red". Charley Iler-
os's club played In rather bad luck jc
terday, and was finally defeated 3-C whn
Fletcher drove In the winning1 run in tho
ninth Inning.
A general shift of combatants takes
place today. Tho Giants are to toe the
mark with their ancient opponent", the
Chicago Cubs, while tho Cincinnati club
goes acres the Brooklyn bridge to
-visit Charley Ebbctf stadium. Pitts
burgh will meet IJostun. This means
that en paper, the Uraves have the
better i.f the chances the coming thri
dnyrf ui increase their lead over the
Giants, but tlie nll-pervadlng uncertainty
if the pastime makes it n hazardous cin'fi
to say tlint the Boston club will lo better
ngalnst Clarke's men than the Clnnts
will against the Cubs. The Braves dropped
half a same In the league race when they
faded to win out from St. l.ouK
That uamo has gone by t.io boards and
U a real sain for tlie Cll.ints. at- the Hut
ton and St. I.ouis clubs do not meet
again, hence they cannot play oft the tie.

Mackmen Meet Tigers
Again This Afternoon.
DETROIT, Midi., Sept. lP.-Jolui Wel
don Wyckoff seems to be untamable.
Throughout the season ot 1013 he was so
wild that ho was never allowed to go
into a Kninc unless it had either been
cinched by the Athletics, or hopelessly
lost. Mack was afraid to trust Weldon
alone In tlie centu- of the diamond when
an) thing was nt stake. This season tlie
Wllllumsport rlKht-l.ander ben.ui well
Shortly after the crack of tho starting
pistol he defeated Walter Johnson. In-

with bis control and he has not im-
stated that ho would 'ise the best team
lie could muster to play the Braves To
strengthen his club as much aa possible.
Clarke has ordeied Wully Schang's
brother, who has been with the rit. Jo
seph Club of the Western League all
summer, to report to him at Boston.
Thus for this youngster has played well
and tvhll- he has not shown the ability

In the majors sooner or later.
ferday was n big day for Pitcher
'iff, of the Athletics, and SehnoUW,
. Reds. Both of them lost their
s and by tho samt scores, but they
v.iat Is far more Important In their
eyes than win a game they each
d out hits which carried them
ud the circuit. The analogy can be

FALL RACE MEET
OF ROAD DRIVERS
SCHEDULED TODAY
piovcd In this respect at all
The opposition has never been able to
hit Wyckoff consistently, but they
didn't have to. The waiting game was
preferable, and generally won for the
club which was facing Wyckoff. Captain
Ira Thomas and Connie Mack have said
n number of times that Wyckoff had
a" much spued as any pitcher in tho
league, yet his ability to break the ball
at sharp angles and to buzz it through
with a lot of siH-ed has been entirely
offset by his lack of control. It was
thought that after he had been allowed
to work fitfully for one season ho would
go In and be a big winner, but ho bus
been a complete disappointment to Mack
this season and shows no signs of get
ting over his wildnes.
Tills same tiling happened with Byton
llouck. another r,glil-hander, whomMnck
nursed along for about tliiee "eaeoni and

Intf the woild's Kerioa In October, Is not
a uovioe ut thH kind of work. Every one
know that the great secoud-sackor of
the Athletic is a clever, accurate batn

are some who do not know that he can
so through the daily work with as much
facility as the man who coverfc an entire
major league season.
Collins performed hU best daily work
last year during the season. His stories
were wldelv read. This year Collins U
ukain going to write tlie aeries, and with
his knowledge of just what the fans
want it U safe to say tlwt there will be
no better stories in the country on the
big series than those printed in the
lJvBHi.vW.eixieit.
The players, eoiitiury to Han Juhruun'a
statement last fall, will be allowed to do
all the writing they desire. Naturally
there will not be nwie ta two or three
at mot una will do their uwn work, but
Collins is among that number, for that
leasan, if for no other, his stories will
be more valuable than those purporting

By EDWARD R. BUSHNELL
Krankllu Field was n veritable oven
yesterday, and the football men suffered.
Hardly the day the coaches would have
selected to Rive their men the first taste
of scrltnmtii;ing. The time before the
Initial content with Gettysburg, one week
hence, however, Is already perilously
short, and this sort of strenuous work
was absolutely Imperative to permit the
coaches to pass on the icspcctlve merits
of the candidates for the line. Although
It was much too hot and sultly for foot
ball, It was a good dav to reduce weight.
Too many of the linemen aro still car
rying excess cargoes of weight.
The uhdiacter of the scrimmage work
In which the linemen Indulged was con
fined to charging exercises. The of
fensive side had seven men on the lino
of scrimmage, tho defense four and five.
What the coaches thus tried to teach
wai tho proper manner to break through
and to check opposing linemen without
using the hands. The way the coaches
worked the men had much the same
offect as a tubbing contet for oarsmen.
In another part ot the field Head
Coach Urooke had the candidates for
the backfleld doing woik almost ns
strenuous. Ilmbryo iruuiterbncks, half
backs and fullbacks inn through signals,
bulled and (.aught foiwurd passes,
ehnsed up and down tho field under
kicks and even tiled a little woik In
running back punts.
Just now tlie touches ate not giving
any inkling as to the composition of the
teum In thU game, lint it Is almost
certain that Captain Journeay will get
first call at centre. Tho only uncertain
thing about Ills work is the amount of
speed he w III develop. To play centre ac
cording to the Pennsylvania system he
will have to show great activity and be
able to back up not only his own position,
but to help wherever un extra man is
n-.-edod.
There are two member of last year's
freshman team who seem to have caught
the coaehefc' eos ns candidates for line
honors. They are (Jeorgo Wharton Pep
per, Jr. and Wiihcrow. Pepper In a
man built much on tho same Hues as
Prank Pii-karskl. though weighing more
thun this AH-Amrlcan guard. Wltherow
i aiiies about :'23 pounds and Is not et
tinln.xl ilntvn ts 1,.,I1 milltn It .....I..
.......... ....., fcw ,ii m..ii;i iiuiiin i
and Ttuseeii, who played on last year's I
ttam, ought to letnln line positions. As
for the ends, Conch Dickson has nut
given itn intimation as to wiio will be ,
his tli st . liulces here. ..either has Cleorge
llruiike indicated what men aie his fa- '
vorites for hack Held positions. On n
gu:. tlie man to start at nuurterback
will be Vic linllou oi Irwin: two of the
uth-r backs. Jones and Jlutthews, while
Uottwnls or Moffltt would complete n
pretty good backfleld.
At tho I'niveisity of Michigan Coach !
Plnhllng It. Yost has lesented the con- I
elusion of one Kastcrn football writer !
who predicted that whflu .Michigan pln
ed Hdrvnrd at Cambridge on October at,
tho Crimson would not uso its best pius.
but would reserve them for the Prince
ton and Valo teams. Yost lias no reason '
to care what plays Harvard uses, but It i
piques his prldo to have tho infneuce ,
drawn that Ids team will not ho im
portant enough to make the Ciimsun ex
tend itself. '
It may bo tutted light now that Har
vard hasn't am Intention of submitting ,
to a iieuiuig uy .Micninan. ami the Crim
son may he depended upon to use its
best plays and players. Tho surmUu
that tho Harvard would un only
"simple" plays against Michigan nnd re
serve tho Intricate ones for Princeton
and Yale Mious the extent to which
inauj persons oveicstimate sn.cullcd
football strategy, llarvurd and Michigan
will havo the advantage of ubout the
sumo brand of coaching, and victory or
defeat will depend rather upon the calibie
of the men than tiieli tiick oi compli
cated formations.
Trick plays for which beciet practice
Is thought neccskary never represent 5
per cent, of a team's strength, on the
contrary, men a.e what count. If Har
vard should tesolve to start the Michi
gan game without nrlckley ur Muhan in
the back field, there might be some
ground for the supposition thut Michi
gan was undciestimated. It ought to be
thoroughly understood by this lime that
the strength of the Harvard eleven will
depend mote upon tho cull Lire of the en
tire tesm, partltulaily of the backfleld
than upon any new football which Coach
Haughton or any one else can leach
them. In a team which has abchiU'l
mastered th rudiments of the game and
can do tlie elemental things as near
perfectly us the Harvard plajers do, all
the trick plas that evei were known
wouldn't increase the strength of that
team 6 pr cent.

Ptank Loughrcy, of this city, will be
teen In one more bout befoio he sails for

ing promoter of that country, has billed
him for several contests. I.oughrcy will
appear In the final bout of an nil-star
show at the Olympla Athletic Assoclutl'i,
llioad and Bainbrldgc streets, next Mon
day night. Manager Harry Kdwards 1ms
matched him with "Italian Joo" Oans, of
Brooklyn. They are two of tho hardest
hitting welterweights In the country, both
lav claim to the title in this division, and
their battle Monday night should be bit
terly contested.
The next bout Is another very attrac
tive number, presenting Freddy Kelly,
the papular local boxer, who created a
big Mirpriso last week by defeating
Young Jack O'llrlen, one of the most
elusive boxers In the Kast. Kelly will meet
a worthy opponent In Willie Herman, of
Southwark, who is u big favorite. Johnny
Mayo, of this city, tackles a tough propo
sition in Young Fulton, of New York, the

Appropriate That American
Peterboro Should, Be Held
Here, as Philadelphia Is
Great Sport Centre.
As it Is generally accepted lhat Phila
delphia Is the greatest spot-tint; centre of
America, it Is particularly appropriate
that the flist "American Peterboro"
should be held here. It Is e.spccted that
the llrst smhow especially for foxhounds
and beagles ever held In America, which
will take place tit Hryn Mnwr, under tho
auspices of tlie Horse Show, dtirintr tho
dvo davs beginning September 21, will
moan to America what the similar show
held annually nt Peterboro, Kngland,
means to Great Britain.
At the coming Hryn Mnwr Hound Show
there will bo a large number of loial en

Appleton Others from Xew Yoik will be
the packs of llayniond Helmnnt, Arthur
Ilurdeii, S, T. Peteis and Hugene s. Ttoy
nnl. The packs will be shown by tho
master nnd huntsmen in hunt colors and
these events will make an interesting ad
dition to the Hryn Al uvr Horso Show.
Tho Hound Show Committee on beagle
hounds at tho Horse Show will consist of
IV. Plunkett Stewart, chairman: William
W. Justin-, "ecietnry: t'latcnce Clark, "d,
It. I'etin Smith, Jr., and Thomas C.td
