By BERTON BBALEY
BOSTON, Oct. 13 "Tlic king Is dead
long' live the king" we thrill no more At
Baker's iinme; no longer do his prnlses
ling ns "master hitter of the game",
ajiothrr monarch rclBns Instead and
stalks triumphant to the throne, tho
crown of sunt Is on his head Hank
Gowtlv rules, unmatched, alone'
For when thiotish ages wo look back j
on stais whose fame has traveled far, not
one could hit it tloicer whack or give tho
Chore a harder Jar a home run slammed
outside the lot, two doubles walloped to
the stands, todav made (Jody king of i
swat a willow sceptre In his hands'
And this new star In halldom, who fills
the world with awe, was once In heav ,
thraldom to Mr John McOravv. '
But John, with eyesight .loudv and
vision rather dim. could not "see' Mr
Gowdy and so he trailed him ilf smiles
of glee you'd Raze upon, Just mention
Gowdy's name to John).
And here tho muse Is put to shame
alio can't, she can't describe this same.
It was won and lost and lost nnd won,
some several times ere tho game was won
lind from two o'clock till the sun lnd
ot our Iiands were shaking, our brows
svero wet, as for twelve mad Innings we
eat In thrall to tho thrills and chills of
that game of ball.
And the Braves won out by a brand of
wit, a strength of soul and a nervo and
Ktit which probably never will be sur
passed In all the years that The Game
shall last.
In the tenth the were "whipped," thov
were "down and out." when two men
scored on Baker's clout, nnd we- sUhed
"stjod night" In the gathering glonm, and
reached for our hats and started home
But hark what's that? there's ,i thud
a. crash as Gowdy swings for a home
run smash. Then a hit or two, when
the need Is great, and Moran comes Hot
ting across the plate, and the rooters
throw their hats nsldc foi the tenth la
c'r and the score Is tied
Then at last. In the twelfth, comes the
looked-for break Joe Bush throws wild
with the came at stake, and the run
comes In as the looters roar and the
Braves have conquered b 5 to 4!

A WORD TO THE HONORABLE GOWDY
(By W. A. McG)
Howdy, Mister Gowdy. with your biffing bludgeon black,
We hate to see you swing it, but we're slad to see you back.
We wish you all the best of luck, but hope you break an arm.
Both legs, your neck and skull, but trust you do not conic to harm,
Truly, you're unruly with that battle club of yours,
Sending little baseballs on such airy, lengthy tours;
Can't you lean less heavily, just to Rive us hope?
If you do not halt a bit, you'll fracture all the dope.
Tell us, were you jealous of the fame F. Baker sot,
Clouting of the horsehidc till it flew out of the lot?
You've been inconsiderate, you have had a gall,
You should now be satisfied; do not hog it all.

THE ATHLETIC CLUB OF PHILADELPHIA
This great ball team of Philadelphia was quite as celebrated as the 1914 champions. All of the players have not been identified in this picture, maybe
some of the old-timers will recognize them. Seated, left to right, are M. McGeary, catcher; "Al" J. Reach, second base. Second row W. Fisler, first
base; J. Senscnderfer, center field; Captain McBride; Crane, position unknown, and John McMullen, pitcher. In the thiijd row "Pop" Anson, with arm
akimbo, is the only one recognized. "Pop" played third base. Others who might be in the picture are L. Meyerle, J. Radcliffe, E. Cuthbert, G. Heubel,
G. Bcchtel and Tom Pratt. There is a vast difference in the appearances of the Athletics then and today.

Gridiron Gleanings From Leading Colleges
By EDWARD K. BUSHNELL
One of the principal rensims win Tenii
sjlvjiila didn't scoic a single point
asrainst I.afajctto on t?aturdn was that
Matthews couldn't drop kick, and lha
coaches didn't know th.xt they had a man
In the back field who could plate kick
even better thin Dick Mai shall could drop
I kick last jenr. The man who has been
hiding his light under a bushel is none
other than Viculaud. wno In his tirst cf
foit at playing halfback wnp eclipsed In
biillloncy only by fullback Tucker. Vrcc
land is entirely too modest to tell of his
exploits in tho goal kicking line, but his
record which the writer has du up speaks
loudly for him.
Two years ao Vrceland was a fresh
man ut Muhlenburg College where ho
played In the back Held. Duilng that
season he scoied 61 points. Of this total
he scored 21 points with goals from touch
downs, missing but a cingle such trial all
teasun. lie scored I" points In addition
with nine goals from placement during
tho season. Ho kicked one goal from
placement In cory gumo on the schedule,
and In one game he scoicd twice. Among
the teams against which he scored In
tills manner were Lafajctte, Lehigh and
Urslnus.
Vieeland has done no kicking on Frank
lin Field. Last spring ho broke his light
leg plnjlns baseball, nnd haB been sav
ing himself this fall. Fortunately ho
kicks with his left foot, so that the In
Juiy ho sustained won't affect his kick
ing. The chances aie that the Quaker
coaches will give Vreeland a chance In
practice this week. Nothing delights
Head Coach George Brooko more than
to tlnd a man with this tort of talent, and
since Matthews has shown himself to be
undvpendable as a drop kkker tho
coaches are llkelj to test Vreeland in tills
department.
"Bull" McClenry, the old State Col
lege tackle, has been of much assistance
to Coach Hedges in lounding out the
Germantown Academy team this season.
"Bull" has been out nearly every day
on the Manhelm gridiron, working with
the line candidates, thus allowing Hedges
to spend all his time with the ends nnd
backfleld men A new acquisition ill
tho person of Kitisei reported for a
lino berth last week, and is expecwd
to fill the vacancy In the line left open
by the withdrawal of liumill from the
squad. Kaiser Is exactly six foet in
height and tips the beam at 15 pounds.
The footbnll situation out at West Phil
adelphia is lmprolng to soma rMent. but
the team has a long way to go befor
It can hope to hold the speedy Northeast
and Central High elevens In the big
James next month. Quarterback Kills
practically won the reit-nt Chester High
battle, and he looks more and more like
an all-schol3stlc choice evei tune out
WaKenknlglit, of course, Is badl mised
for he was tho best man at the quarter
hack position in the local schools last
year, but It is doubtful if Cuai'i Mulfnrd
could get a better man for the position
than Ellis right now The foimer Is ex.
perted to get bneb in the game some tune
next month, and In this event will more
than llktlv he shifted to a halfba. k in
order to utilize his work in the open field.
The local schools have not shown much
Interest in cross-country running thus

this branch of sport has been taking
things easy, while some of the other
schools appear to be at a standstill Doe

Houston Field every day for a Ilsrht Jog,
but none of the candidates has had an
opportunity a yet to try the difficult
Lemon Hill course In FaJrmount Park
This Paturday will see the opening of
the hill and dale season, when a race
for novices will be staged, and following
th's the teams wilt get down to work in
earnest.
The regulars of the Northeast High
football squad wre given a rest tester
day after the hard game against William
son Trade School on Saturday. Captain
Webb was on the field In spite of ln
Juries received in the game. Hardin,
likewise injured In Saturdays game, has
also recovered Through nheer necessity
Wilson was switched from end to half,
back on Saturday and made good at his
new position As ntdpath and Brelt
haupt are now taking care of the wing
positions, Wilson may win a permanent
place In the backfleld
Coach Johnson was pleased with the
team's clever use of the forward pass
Webb and He-uer did some accurate toss
ing and Rldpath and Brelthaupt held on
to the oval every time It came their way.
Captain Dunn's Northeast soccer men
are fast rounding into shape and it looks
a. if Northeast will aln be in the run
ning for the championship. Three team

SOCCER SNAPSHOTS
One of the most surprising results on Satur
day wis tho drawn game between Bethlehem
and Victor In the American League at Beth
lehem. Each side scored two goals and at
half time Bethlehem held a load of two geals
to none and deserved It. The Victor team
pU)d a great game In the second half and
practically hemmed the steelworkers In their
own half of tho ground Tha Ttoblntons, New
ton. lii)nor, Brlgham and Scott proved them
selves a wonderful forward line, and the Beth
lehem defense was sure rut to it to prevent
them from scoring moro than two goals.
As an all-round sportsman C B Webster.
Jr., would be hard to beat. He plajed fjr
tho Cnlverslts of Pennsjlvanla at cricket,
captained the golt team and now captains tlw
ooccer team. He took up soccer only last ear
and soon developed Into a really good full-
I back He will undoubtedly Improve steadll),
and the club he eleelo to play for after he
graduates from Penn will Indeed bo lucky.
