KING FOOTBALL MOBILIZING MANY RESERVISTS -PHILLIES IN TWO GAMES TODAY
, , . - , . . i ' ' . ,
SPINNING COIN
LAST DETAIL FOR
WORLD'S SERIES
Braves and Athletics Having
Easy Time Phillies Meet
Cubs in Double-header
Here This Afternoon.
Practically tho only mutter of Im
portance In the major leagues which
has been left undone Is the splnnlnc of
th coin to decide whether the first
names vhall bo played In Philadelphia or
In Boston. Whllo neither tho -Athletics
nor the Braves have mathematically
captured the Haps In their respective
leagues, nothing short of an earth
quake can head the present leaders.
The Giants lost their last chance yes
terday when they were beaten twice In
tho course of four hours at tho Polo
Grounds by Miller IlURKlns" band of
former contenders During that period
of time the Braves were evening mat
ters with the Cincinnati Reds, thus
drawing further away from the metro
politan enemy. Should the New Tork
era, by some strange freak of fortune,
be able to capture their last thirteen '
games, the Braves would have to win I
eight out of their final fourteen.
That the Giants have completely lost j
heart was evident In their second game
with St. Louis The first contest was
close, but when the Giants finally lost
out, they appeared to slve up nil hope
for the pennant, allowing themselves to
b shot to pieces by the shower of hits
nnd runs made by the St. Louis club. ,
Hank O'Day's much-buffeted players ,
will be seen again this afternoon at
Broad and Huntingdon streets. A
double-header Is scheduled, to begin at
1-30 o'clock. The heavy batting of the '
Phillies yesterday showed the Cubs
plainly that the Daisies are still trying
to win games.
KING FOOTBALL
ABOUT TO MOUNT
SPORTS' THRONE
He Is Mobilizing Reservists
in Anticipation of Some
Stiff Battles on Gridiron
This Fall.
NEW YOnK, Sept. 2t.-dld King Foot
ball Is about to mount the sport throne.
He Is collecting his reservists throughout
the country and already has engaged In
many slight skirmishes with his ancient
cnmy. Cznr Baseball. In all of the out
lying posts Football's forces are scoring
heavily. Around the big centres, though.
Haoeball still holds forth the strongest
Not until after the World's Series docs
King Football expect to reign supreme
The football outlook around the East
this year U unusually Interesting. Yale
occupies the potllght, not because it Is
expected to "clean up" this fall, but bo
cause Frank Ulnkey Is back to coach
Old L'll's pigskin warriors. The prospect
of this former Blue star putting In a win
ning team there Is ver.v doubtful. The
task Is too great, In the minds of football
critics. But the Hlnkey spirit, ns It is
remembered ty those who saw that fa
mous star in action In the old days. Is
something to lie reckoned with and the
seemlngl Impossible may be accom
plished. ' Hlnkey's efforts, at any rate,
will be closely untched.
In the preliminary woik to date, Hlnkey
ha tried out a large number of candi
dates. His policy seems to be that every
man who reports Is going to get a chance.
He seems to want to s"e for himself what
material he has on hand Only the three
plavers who were regarded as regulars
are' available for Hlnkey They are Cap
tain Talhott. Halfback Carroll Knowles
and Quarterback "Aleck" Wilson. Hln
kev is being assisted at present by Dr.
Billy Bull, who has charge of all the kick
In? enndldates: "Doc" Cornish, who is
directing the quarterback aspirants, and
"Billy" Marling, who Is showing the cen
tres the fine points.

You may call this autumn weather If
you wish, but It does not matter to the
weather maker. The thermometer has
been up In the Ws for several days, and
it might as well ho midsummer. No
man Is wearing a straw hat, either. Not
a. bit like the usual football period. Is It?
Maybe the Columbia University nlno Is
favored by the weather man. as wo
notice the Now Yorkers nro having their
fall baseball practice
Here's what Baird Leonard says:
M'GRAW TO TriE GIANTS.
Too late for flags, too late for coin,
Too late, too late!
You loitered on the road too long.
You trifled at the gate.
Each summer game you might have won
Comes back in ghostly state,
You slept while Stalllng's Boston Braves
Were making love to Fate,
To see them crack beneath the strain
We now must stand and wait.
Three years ago, two years ago,
One je;ir ago,
Even then sou passed the post In time.
Though somewhat slow;
But you were placing better ball
Than sou today ran show,
Marquard would sometimes win a game,
The Chief cou'd throw
Thlnl; you the gods will rover grant
Four pennants in a row?
Certain spectators appear to Imagine
that when they buy a ticket at tho gate
It entitles hem to abuse the ball players.
The players do not lend hearty support
to the Idea
A cheap way to commit suicide: Ask
one of the Giants what he Intends to do
with his share of the world's pcrles
money.
Jn announcing the world's series will !
commence octoner e, tun Johnson says:
"It Is our aim to start and finish the.
series as early as possible " Well, we
do not know who'll start It, but after
watching the Athletics for gome years
we can Imagine who'll finish It as early
as possible.
At last Mathewson's prediction baa
come true. The Braves hate ti.t-ur, n I
crack the baseball.
Lavender Is suspected by the Phllly
players of having used the "emery ball"
In yesterday's game. It Is true that De
tective Btgler. after an exhaustive
starch of Jimmy's person, was unabla
to locate the magic paper but the ball
which Jimmy was on the verge of
throwing showed a slight abrasion If
Jimmy had the paper he must be .
ltgerdemaln artist, for there wasn't even 1
a sign ol It. Not only la he that awful
thing, but he is also nkln to the chame
leonstarting out Lavender, he turned
red. then blue at the finish.
Five times the ball was sent caroming
against the right field wull In the
Phllly-Cubs' game. Becker's drive
struck directly on top, hesitated a
moment, then bounded away into Broad
street, and one more spectator w.is
added to the 30 who were alicady
present.
Howard Berry is playing a rattling good
game for the Penn scrubs at fullback.
Berry Is an all-around football player as
well as an all-around athlete. He Is
probably the best quarterback that has
entered Pcnn since Stevenson's dny. Un
fortunately he will not be eligible until
next season because he plased on Muhl
enburg lat year This Is the snme Perry
the Phillies and Athletics attempted to
land. Unquestionably Berry will ulti
mately become a professional ball player,
but he has not decided with which club
he will .sign.
A dash of V vnrd? for a touchdown was
made by "Ted" Merrill on Franklin Field
yesterday. He Is the hero today.
Charles Ebbetts will probably declare
a half holldav in Brooklyn and have an
other dedication of the stadium if the
Dodgers continue their winning streak to
a dozen. They have now won eight in
a row.
Already those baseball citizens who
have never visited tho City of Concen

Poor old Cincinnati Reds' Thev started
I out to win the National League pennnnt.
After discovering that It couldn't bi
done, they started out to make a world's
, record for straight games lost. After
I rearhlng the count of 15 they were forced

GUNNERS SEEK LICENSES
Registration Likely to be Heaviest in
Years, is Report.
V Is expected that the registration of
IVnnsslv.inla hunters for 1914-131.1 will
rh.il that of Inst year, when approxi
mately 3'Ki.reio hunters took nut tho
papers requited to permit them to hunt.
In addition it i.s estimated that more
than KH,C"Mj tanners, their families or
their tenants hunted on their own lands
last year, taking advantage of the pro
vision In tho law enabling them to do
n without being licensed. The estimates
nic being based upon reports made, of
the sale of licenses, which Is slated to
have been heavy in a number of coun
ties wbeie the demand was light nt this
time last year. It Is expected that tliete
will be a brick demand for licenses early
in October.

Georgo H. Brooke is gradually work
ing out his backfleld problem at I'enn
sylvanla. The return of Avery and the
inre kicking ability ae has shown haw
been enough to gladden tho hearts of
Brooke and his assistants. Avery showed
lots of ability as a oacklleld player last
enr. and towarus the end of tho sonson
was beginning to develop Into a good
Itlcker. Then came first ono injur- and
Hum another, with ihe result that he
was never ablo to do himself justice.
Ills last year's eivparlenco must nave
lemllted him. and with tho Improve
mint In kicking which ho has been dem
tnstrotlng for the ust fow days, he
ought to be a star bock und sure of n
permanent place.
It was a treat to watch Avury Hick
yesterday. He has mastered a twisting
punt that soars high nnd far and re
minds one of the punt which made
Marshall Reynolds, of the 19AI team, so
famous. N'ot a man playing down the
field undr his kicks yesterday could
handle CO per cant, of them, fievera! of
them got away so well that they drew
v.ords of admiration from Brooko him
elf, who was o PMt master In alj
kinds of kicking. Avory hasn't yet
mastered the art of getting his kick
away quickly, but that Is a (Moll which
can br corrected as the teaman ad
vances. Another man who hau bosn showing
the sort of ability which is likely to land
him a varsity berth is Jlothevvs, who
was captain and 'iiIUmm k of tlm fresh
man eleven lust yea". Mathewa Is built
much on th.- same lines .is Jot- M Orai k
en. the famous gu'tid ttud fullback of

line breaker anil manipulates the forward

The Quaker football management h:is

A tmashtns cod game lit fullbuik fur the
CHICAGO, III., Sept. 24.-Connle Hack
will send his plnycrs to battle today with
tho club which has nlwoys given tho
champions a fight. There has never been
a time In recent yenrs when, the Mack
men were able to predict with any degree
of certainty a victory over tho White Sox.
Harry Dnvls rJmarkcd that tho chief rea
son for this wns that the grounds nt
Comlskcy Park had a peculiar effect on
the Playing of tho Athletics, first, because
of the soft Infield, and secondly, becauso
of the direction of the sun with reference
to the playing field, ns It Is different from
any other diamond In tho league.
Despite theso things, Mnck Is deter
mined that his men shall win. Ho Is not
doing any vnst amount of worrying over
the result, but he wants to get the rnco
ovor nt tlm earliest possible date In order
to give Ills men time to recuperate from
the senson's lcng strain before the scries
begin.
Today the Athletics have a lend of RVi
games, one-half of n gaino less than tho
ntlvnntngo enjoyed by their National
I.cnguo tivnls rrom uoston, .scvermciwo,
the Mnckmcn feel that this Is more than
nn ample distance nhend of the Red Sox.
There Is a queer argument which has
been put up In Boston referring to the
relative strength of the Red Sox nnd
Athletics. The Hub followers claim that
becauso the Red Fox have won the ma
jority of the games played against the
Athletics this year they should win tho
pennant.
Such an argument Is quite absurd, be
cause Boston has tried to keep her best
pltcheis to work against tho Athletics
Instead of shooting them In against some
other club which ultimately won games.
On the other hand, Mack has made no
effort to save anything for Boston. Tho
McGlllIcudlan policy Is to win by tak
ing everv game as it comes on the sched
ule, or, "rather. In trying to take every
ono.
After leaving Chicago the Athletics
go to St. Louis for two games. The

nenn Stui'gls, former Bucknoll College i
catcher, who has been with the Atll-
letlcs nil season until recently, Is trying '
out with the Pittsburgh Pirates. Mack
still owns the player, ns he was forced
to allow him to sign a "college con- j
tract," which prevents the player being
sent to anv other club, either In the
minors or majors, without his own con
sent Sturgls realized that he wns not
making n great hit with Mack, hence
he went to the Pirates for a tryoiit when
ho discovered that they would give him
a chance.
