NAP RUCKER, ONE OF THE GAME'S
GREATEST, HAS SEEN HIS DAY
Great Brooklyn Pitchdr, Cunning Unimpaired, Shows Ravages of
Time Baker-Mack Controversy Begvis to Wear on Fans'
Nerves Ruse to Avoid Conflict of Contracts.
Napoleon Rucker, once known as tlio king of southpaws, tried to twirl
against the Phillies yesterday. He remained In the box for eight Innings and
was able to keep the game reasonably close, nut Jt was shown clearly that tho
famous left arm had lost Its strength. The wonderful brain that made Rucker
famous Is still cunnlnp, but the speed Is gone and the wonderful sharp-breaking
curve ball la now n. ''roundhouse curve." with little to It.
Rucker's brain was working all tho time and he outguessed the Phillies In
ft remarkable manner for a time, considering that ho did not have as much speed
as the average schoolboy twlrler. To those who can remember tho blinding
speed of tho Rucker of a fow years ago, yesterday's exhibition was Indeed pitiful.
In other days Rucker would havo faced Cravath. or any other slugger In tho
game, with s. smile on his face and calmly proceed to humble tho hitter but
Hot now.
Rucker Pitched to Cravath and Trusted to Luck
When Cravath enmn Un in thfl nnrntnl Innlnir. niirlor rlr.,1 tn IfMn tho hall
.way from the centre of the plate and seemed to know that he had nothing that
could deceive the slugging Quakor, Cravath refused to go after two wide ones, j
ana men Rucker Just tossed tho ball up, trusting to chance. Cravath mot the
ball fairly and It flaw far into the left field bleachers for a homo run.
Rucker was not disappointed or surprised. He seemed to feel that It was
coming, and each Umo Cravath camo to tho plato ho strained the fast-weakening I
loft arm trying to put all ho had In his work. In the olghth inning ho passed I
Cravath Intentionally and filled the bases, only to havo this pleco of strategy
miscarry. Whined stepped to tho plate and sent a single to deep left, scoring
two runners and clinching the game.
i
The National League strike-out record of modern times Is still held by
Sucker, who fanned 14 Boston batsmen In a ntne-lnnlng game. Perhaps tho fans
will also remember the afternoon In 1910 when ho fanned 15 of tho hard-hlttinc '
Phillies In a 12-innlng game' That feat was accomplished with blinding speed '
ana only an occasional curve ball to the left-handed hitters.
t t
Chalmers Like the Chalmers of Old
Looking tho box score over, one naturally would be under the Impression that
George Chalmers was hit hard and was also lucky to last the full game. But
this Is one cose whero figures deceive. Twelve hits were recorded for the
Dodgers, but six of these were on balls that did not leave the Infield, whllo still !
another was a misjudged fly ball by Whitted.
Chalmers really looked like the Chalmers of 1911. Ho was not qulto so fast
as he used, to be, but his spitbali was breaking fast and his control was much
hotter than he has shown In threo years. So fast was his spltter breaking that
almost all the Dodgers were striking over the ball. Hitting tho ball in this man
ner caused tho many hard Infield bounders that could not bo handled. When
. Chalmers used his fast ball It was hopping a bit, and high files resulted. All told,
there were only about five balls met fairly on tho big fellow.
Ruse to Evade Baker's Contract Conflict
Reports today say J. Franklin Baker is to have a position as manager of
John P. Crozer's 3tock farm, with a salary of $10,000 a year, and that he will
not bo signed to an Upland baseball contract. Instead he will receive hi3
money as a farm manager and give his services to tho Upland team, which
Is financed by Crozer, gratis.
In this manner tho Delaware County League hopes to avert a split with
the Interstate Association. Manager Miller, of Upland, Intimated that tho
Delaware County League in general and the Upland Club In particular would
allow no Interference with its plans by the Interstate Association, while J.
Borton Weeks, president of the Delaware County League, quoted a rule of
tho Interstate Association which declares that contract Jumping is against
its rules only when a man Jumps a contract signed with a club of that par
ticular association.
Fans Tire of Mack-Bakcr Controversy
As badly as the fans wish to see Baker return to the Athletics, they are
beginning to tire of tho affair. If Baker returns he will be welcomed by
thousands as a ball player, and probably will be loudly cheered on his first
appearance, but ho will never be the Idol he was before his breach of faith
with Manager Mack.
Tho latter has always treated Baker fairly, and the greater sympathy
Is with Manager Mack. But there has been too much stalling In this matter
lu ou"- lno ns- J-n sooner tiaKer and Mock do something final the better
It will be. Mack says one minuto he does not want Baker, if ono is to be
lieve telegraph dispatches, and In tho next interview ho intimates thai Baker
may still return. Baker is likewise switching his opinion every other day.
There should bo some action; either get together or split for good.
Phillies Have "Bumps" Coming, Says Critic
"Herbert," in the New York Tribune, has this to say concerning the
Phillies:
"Sensations are much a part of baseball. Nothing elso perhaps accounts
so largely Xor Its gripping interest. The frolicsome Phillies, who three short
weeks ago appeared to be literally shot to pieces, have been providing the
first sensation of the now baseball year. The Braves, the Giants, the Cubs
could have rushed off at the same wild pace without causing a ripple of ex
citement, but so little was expected of the Phillies under their new manager,
Pat Moran, that their wild whirl has set all tongues wagging. Without de
tracting from the credit due the players, who havo settled so quickly into
their stride with a show of spirit that Is impressive, it may bo suggested that
the race is not always to the swift, and that one year the Pittsburgh Pirates
won 15 out of their first 17 games and yet finished far back In the ruck.
"About May 10, 1914, the baseball writers were marveling and saying
much the same things about the Pirates as they are now saying about the
Phillies. On May 9, to be exact, the Pirates were sailing along far in front
with a percentage of .882, while the Boston Braves were trailing with a per
centage of .231, having won Just three of their 13 games. But, oh. what a
difference a fow months made! Every baseball fan knows whero the Braves
were in October. All this Is not recalled for the purpose of discrediting the
Phillies. They may not follow the example of the Pirates and slip back to
a place In the rear, but tho fact remains that followers of the Giants, to say
nothing of the other teams in the National League, havo no reason to grow
restive or to count the battle over.
"Kverythlng else aside. It looks as If Pat Moran would make a name for
himself as a big league manager. Judging from their play here last week
in winning four straight, his men have been Inspired with that fighting spirit
which counts so largely in any contest. Grantng, however, that Grover
Cleveland Alexander ranks with the greatest pitchers of nil time, granting
that Chalmers has como back, and that Mayer, Demaree and Rlxey maka
up a pitching staff of which any manager could be proud, tho team as a
whqle does not yet measure up In skill or ability with the Giants, Braves,
Cubs or Superbas. Things have been breaking right, the men have been
aroused and encouraged by their success, but the comparative newness of
the infield is likely to bo felt when the bumps, which are sure to come, are
reached."
f Phillies Are There, Avers Another Scribe
The New York Herald has some appreciation of the Phillies. It says:
"Coming from tho South only a mediocre organization, as for as past records
can bo believed, Moran paraded before Boston and New York 'fans' a team filled
to Uio overflowing with confidence and winning spirit. The pitching staff was all
.that a manager could hope for. Headed by Grover Cleveland Alexander, who la
acknowledged the best twlrler In tho National League, tha fllngers of Moran
overrode all tho hitters they met until Saturday, and then only a thorough beat
ing made tha Clan na Moran declare they were losers.
"Some of the critics of baseball took up the subject of the Phillies, analyzed
their strength both afield and at bat, and at the end of the arguments it was
the consensus that 'Cactus Cravath is the most dangerous hitter In the pinch,
in the league; that, Moran'a Infield performs defensively better than any ever
representing Philadelphia In the National League; that the pitching staff Is well
organized and founded upon power; that 'Bill' Klllefer is Just as close to the top
aa any catcher In the game, and that the men already have displayed a knowl
edge of; tha finer points of baseball that will make them dangerous.
"None of tha critics would attempt to aay where the Phlllleswould finish
In the race, although most of them figured that Moran'a club was a first division
probability. Tha argument In favor of the Phillies finishing in tha first four was
based on the fact that St, Louis, Cincinnati, Brooklyn. Pittsburgh and the Giants
are all weaker this year than the Phils."

WILLIE LUCAS EASY VICTOR
OVER KNOCKOUT FARRELL
Right and Left Swings Tell in Bout
at Fairmount.
Willie Lucas scored his third straight
victory over "Knockout" Jack Farrell In
the final bout at the Fairmount Athletlo
Club last night
During the early rounds Farrell appar
ently could not gauge his distance, ana
many of tho blows which he directed at
his opponent's head flew wide of their
mark. Lucas had the blood trickling
from Farrell's mouth throughout the
bout with Btralght lefts and left hooks to
the face.
Farrell rocked his adversary with a
series of right and left swings, delivered
to the head in the third round, but ha
was apparently unable to check the short
right and left swings which were launch
ed by Lucas at close range, and In order
to protect himself he at times resorted
to holding and clinching. In the last
round Farrell retreated bo fast from hla
opponent's attack that he almost broke
Into a run.
The semlwind-up was of short dura
tion, Al Britt, of Baltimore, stopping Joe
Murphy In 1 minute and 10 seconds of the
first round with several well directed
right hooks to the Jaw.
In the other bouts Charlie Smith and
Johnny McAvoy boxed a draw. Franklo
Hart held Black Dixie, of Memphis, to
an even break. Battling Butcher, of
Milwaukee, was knocked out In the '.hlrd
round by Sammy Milts and Jack Smith
stopped Reddy Lynch In the last round.

Chant tho science of their attack
Up with the beaker up with a will
To Hughcy Jennings or Smiling Bill;
But off apart from the swirling mart
And a fellow feeling within mv heart
Hero goes and deep to the final drop
To the Ultimate Dreg of the cup, old top
Though luck may leer where fortune

Here goes THE HAHAOElt OF TUE
BROWNS.
He's a human being t know the guy
With a regular nose and a regular eye
He sleeps in a bed and he lives on food,
While clothes prevent him from going
nude;
And a few of us who have hit the chutes
With a harrowing run of muffs and
"boots"
Can take a moment or two and slip
A bloke one push for an uphill trip
Over tho sweep of the flag-erased towns.
And drink THE MANAGER OF THE
BROWNS.
One Reason
Dear Sir I Bee most of the so-called
experts are picking Johnson and Alex--nnder
now as the two greatest pitchers.
What's tho matter with Dick Rudolph
and Bill James, who pitched a tall-end
club into a pennant and then beat the
hardest-hitting machine of 10 years and
made it look foolish? Or what Is the
matter with Ray Caldwell, who shut out
Walter Johnson, and who laBt season,
with a weak club, had a winning per
centage of over .650?
Just a Fan
Nothing Is the matter with, Rudolph,
James or Caldwell. Dut In rating a slab
man as a great pitcher It isn't a matter
of one year or two years but of the test
of time. There have been any number
who starred for a year or so and then
fell back out of range. Joe Wood drew
one record-breaking year, Vean Gregg
was a Nap Rucker for one season. Russ
Ford illuminated the trail two campaigns.
But one or two years form no lasting
test.
The Difference
Matty with IS years and Flank with 11
years of stardom have proved where they
belong, 'alter Johnson has been a
grand pitcher for eight seasons. And now
Alexander Is qualifying among the Pitch
ing Immortals. -Alex began hla great run
back in 1911. He starred for four cam
paigns, and now, beginning his fifth year,
looks to be greater than ever. So he has
proved hla worth not over the short way,
but over tbe long route, where the test
is complete.
Joe Wood In 1313 looked to be one of
the great pitchers of the game. But since
that one purple-tinted year Bmoke Ball
Joe, through accidents and Illness though
it be, has never qualified. The same is
true of Gregg, who dould never be ranked
with Nap Rucker. a star, not of one sea
son, but of nine grinding campaigns, and
these with a ball club feeding most of
the way from the Soup Trough.
Ray Caldwell
Tho same goes for Slim Caldwell, a
pitcher with as much stuff as any liv
ing man. Caldwell, potentially, .Is on a
par with Johnson or Alexander.
But Caldwell, with all his amazing pos
sibilities, has never yet won 25 game3 in
a season. On what grounds can ho yet
be compared to two men who have aver
aged more than 27 victories for from four
to eight years?"
Caldwell has It In him to reach almost
any pitching height. But the test Is not
tn what a man might do, but In what
tho record shows he has already put
through, for, after all, It Is tho cold,
unbiased record that furnishes the. full
reply. Opinion is a smjill part of it
when stacked up against tho pallid figures
of won and last and earned runs.
Rudolph and James got their start to
ward greatness last year. But tn this
pastime no one qualifies in one season
to sit with the Stalwarts. The two Bravo
workmen wore away to a flying start
toward famo, but It will tako another
two or three years at least of continued
high-grade work beforo they can' take
their places among the elect.
Stone one season led the American
League at bat with an average of .353.
After that he faded. No one, therefore,
would ever rank Stone among the game's
great hitters. Wagner. Lajoie and Cobb
draw tho hip-hip output, not because they
had any one brilliant season, but be
cause they havo stuck up there for one
year after another against all varieties
and conditions of pitching.

The great Kentucky Derby, the spring
classic, which will be run this year over
the Churchill Downs course, will bring
together a classy bunch, of horses from
all the leading racing stables of tho coun
try. Many stirring events have featured
fills race, but the tale which still sends
a thrill through n true horseman Is how,
away back In 1832, a rank outsider, Apollo,
defeated the favorite, Runnymede.
All during tho winter of 18S1-83 Runny
mede was tho strong choice. lie went
Into winter quarters with tho prestige of
being the real star among the 2-year-olds
of 1SS1. Ho had been bought of his breed
ers. Drown & Clay, by tho Dwyer Bros,
for $15,000 and was regarded by them ob
a bigger prospect than 'nls full brother
Barnes, hod been at the same age. Dur
ing tho winter preceding the running of
tho Derby In 18S2 good rcportB camo from
the training quarters of this son of imp.
Billot, with the result that a fortune
was wagered on his chances In tho win
ter books. As a result his price was
cut and dropped to tho shortest odds
over offered agalnBt tho chances of a
winter favorite. His owners faad sent
Hindoo to Kentucky tho year previous,
and that gTeat performer walked away
from his field In tho stake. Tho pros
it so of tho Brooklyn ctablo affected the
betting and wagers were mado from ocean
to ocean.
As tho day of tho Derby approached
Runnymede found Increased support and
on tho ovo of tho great race was quoted
at even money by the layers. At post time
he was an odds on favorlto and regarded
as a certain winner by nil the supposed
good Judges. In the meantime, however,
there had come up from the South a
rather ordinary looking gelding named
Apollo, which was in tho stable of Green
B. Morris, who Is still tn the harness as
a trainer at the Juarez track with the
well-known performers Brlghtstone, Rose
Ring and Wavering.
Morris bought Apollo In tho spring of
1SSI, when the future Kentucky Derby
winner was a S-ycar-old. He was not
campaigned In his Juvenile year and In
tho spring of that 3eason Henry Brown.
a Kentucky trainer, had Apollo In his
care. While working him one morning
with another horse, the latter carried the
future crack all the way around the
course, the pair pulling up a mile In 1:13.
This work, of course, was too severe for
a 2-year-old, so early in the spring. Apollo
