4-
KDW YOHK, Oct. 0. Tho coming cam
paign In tho winter baseball league will
have many features to hold the atten
tion of tho fans. Among the many things
that will bo thrashed out before tho cur
tain rises on another season tiro the
changes In management, which will sure
ly occur, In many big league club; trades
between certain of thi major league teams
and the question, "Will tho Federal
League be taken into organized baseball,
will It continue as It no wis, or will It
elvo up the ghost?"
In tho National League one manager
will surely go, and perhaps a fow others.
Tho one who Is most likely to be super
ceded Is "Charlie" Dooln, tho "brick-top"
manager of tho Phillies. Others, whom
rumor says will go, aro "Hank" O'Day,
of tho Cubs; "Duck" Horzog, whoso scalp
the Cincinnati directors ' aro said to be
after, and "Froddlo" Clarke, of tho
Pirates, who has beon quoted as saying
that this Is his last year In baseball.
The other National League managers will
be again found at tho helm when the
bell rings for tho spring training trip.
In tho American League the Yankees
are at present without a permanent man
ager. It Is said that Manager Callahan,
of the Whlto Sox, will retire and that
Trcsldent Somers, of tho Naps, will have
to look for a now leader.
It Is learned from an authoritative
sourco that tho fatluro of Cloveland this
year was uuo to tho fact that tho club

MRS. REED NAMED
AS JUDGE BY THE
TOY POODLE CLUB
Ellis A. Qlmbel this morning presented
tho Qlmbel Cup, emblematic of tho city
football championship, to tho Central
High School. It was arranged last year,
when Central High and West Philadel
phia Schools tied for the championship,
that each school should havo possession
of tho trophy for six months. West
"Phllly" kept It for tho first half year,
and by this arrangement. Central High
could havo had the cup several months
ago, but Doctor O'Urlon thought that
If Mr. Qlmbel should wait nnd present
It when tho football season was well
under way It would serve to stir up ad
ditional Interest in tho sport.
Doctor O'Brien, Central High's cross
country coach, Is very well pleased by
tho showing of Jloock, a now hill and
dalo candidate. Tho latter has been do
ing good work In practice and ho Is
expected to bo among the 11 rat to finish

Pennsylvania's football team will havo
a chanco to redeem Itself tomorrow, and
the coaches to a man think that the
team which lines up against Lafayette
will bo E0 per cent, stronger In football
knowledgo and fighting spirit than that
which went down beforo Franklin and
Marshall last week. This will undoubt
edly be true it the men play against tho
Eastonlans with tho snap nnd certainty
they have been showing for the last three
days.
Tho coaches seem to have gotten the
men aroused. The result Is that the
backfleld men In particular havo been
speeded up 23 per cent., and If tho In
terference Is as cood in tho Lafayette
game ns It has been ln practice the
Quaker supporters will be treated to at
least a better brand of football than
thoy havo seen this year.
This game will glvo tho spectators their
first view of Tucker playing tho fullback
position. The uso to which Tucker Is
being put Is tho ideal way to handle a
fullback. Tucker Is what might bo called
a combination man. That Is, he can
punt, ho can forward pass, ho can buck
tho line nnd he can run the ends. When
he goes back tho opposition won't know
whether ho Is going to punt, forward
pass or run from tho false kick forma
tion. This uncertainty makes him all
tho more valuable. Not since BUI IIoI
lenbach has Pennsylvania had a man
who could do all theso things.

last scrlmmagro yesterday before tho claah

EXTREME INTEREST

BY GRIDIRON FANS
Development of New Style
of Play Cannot Help But
Hold the Attention of the
Followers.
Tho football situation this fall presents
two elements of extreme Interest to th
follower of tho gamo who Is not partisan
to any school. Tho development of the
now stylo of offense and the problem of
working out the necessary appeal to lho
purely academic fan, while the early
season showing of elevens representing
several minor Institutions holds tho at
tention of tho lover of good sport.
