TRAINING SIEGE
SOME OBSERVATIONS ON CURRENT EVENTS IN THE WORLD OF SPORT
Collins and Baker Arrived at
Noon Others Will Fol

Phillies Idle Today.
Following n highly successful but not
a close anil exciting campaign against the
American League allies, Connie Mack's
elx-tlme champions, are on the erge
of their second training season of the
year. At noon today LMdle Collins nnd
Frank linker arrived. Other members
of the squad who will bo coming Into
Philadelphia within the net 24 hours are
Bender, Plank, Davis, Schang, Harry,
Oldrlng, and possibly Strttnk and Mc
Innls. All of these players will take a few
days' rest while the Athletics arc play
ing out their schedule In Washington.
Baker Is going to take a day or so off
for the purpose of visiting his farm at
Trappe, Md., wheto he will keep the edgo
on his batting eye by using the shotgun.
Eddie Collins will engage chiefly In rest
at his home In ti.iindow tie, with a little
literal work thrown In. He Is going to
wtltc a few advance stories for the Cve.v
l.su Leuoeii with reference to the world's
aerie
The other members of the club who will
be In Philadelphia will divide their time
between complete test and light work at
Shlbe Park, with the exception of Plank,
who Is booked to visit his friends and rela
tives In Gettysburg, Pa. "Chief" Bender,
who, with Plank, will do the bulk of the
Athletics' defense work in the series, will
play golf.
Mack himself will probably be In Wash
ington tomorrow. He will, as usual,
leave all of the business details of the
series to John Shlbe and his corps of
assistants, while he devotes his entire
time to planning for the series' battles.
There are several youngsters on Con
nie's string who will be worked against
the Nationals in Washington, and thesj
will be given a careful review.

Coach Brooke Will Compel

By EDWARD B. BUSHNELL
Princeton and Yale have burned their
bridges behind them In their determina

football. Both Coach Pendleton, of
Princeton, and Coach Hlnkey, of Yale,
declare that they have abandoned the
conservative game and Intend to stand

denied that In the past the games be.

to open up.
Apparently the coaches of both Insti

In developing the possibilities of open
football their predecessors have only
scratched the surface. There's a lot of
truth In this. For one thing, they have
been too much afraid of losing posses
sion of the hll to try much else but
close formation plays, varied by an oc
casional forward pass, though most of
the forward passes have been used as a
last resort when everything else had
failed.

Coach Brooke explained that after a
