EVENING LEDGER-PHILADELPHIA. THURSDAY. JUNE 3. 1915-
PHILS ON BRINK OF SECOND DIVISION-MACK STARTSlCHERS' ELIMINATION PROCEl
TOTTERING PHILS JUST FOUR
GAMES AHEAD OF TAILENDERS
STAR GOLFERS PLAYING IN TOURNEY AT HAVERFORD
Fearful Blows Dealt By Boston and Brooklyn From Top to
Bottom in Ton Days Unless Brace Is Taken Connie
Mack Applies Test to His Pitchers.
The unccrlnlnty of baseball win never more clearly Illustrated than In
tiro standing of the Phillies today. Three weeks ago the club was far out
In front, and apparently due to stay there for quite a time, when the club
suddenly became crippled and went Into a slump. Todny they nre tied for
second place, but are only four gnmes ahead of the Giants, who nre In
last place.
Unless the team takes a sudden brace there Is only one ending for the
Phillies, and that Is last place, before they return from the Wost. The tcsm
will not stay there Ions, as It Is due to bo back In the right nnd right up
with tho leaders before the end of July, If It keeps fighting: but shoutd they
drop Into lost place, It would be ono of the most remarkable drops over
recorded In mnlnp tonirtin hlntnrv. T.nsi Frlilnv Mnran's team was In first
place, and next Tuesday It Is possible to be In last place. If there was over I
a more uncertain race It cannot bo recalled.
Brooklyn the Sensation of Lenguc Race
While tho consensus of opinion Is that thero arc at least four teams In
the National League who have but Utile chance for the pennant after tho
teams get settled Into their stride, the fact remains that eight teams appar
ently havo an excellent chance. The Phillies are In a triple tie for second
place and have lost IS games, while tho four second-division clubs have lout
but 20 gnmes.
Brooklyn again trounced the Phillies badly, taking both end of a double
header, and outplayed Moran's team t every stage. It Is becoming mot
apparent every day that Brooklyn will bo the sensation of tho National League
race, and on paper there Is not a team In the league that should bent tho
ledgers If their pitchers hold up. With Jack Coombs back In his old-time
form, Brooklyn appears to be well fortified In this department. Coombs
defeated tho Phillies again yesterday, and In n most decisive manner, Moron's
men getting but four hits off his delivery, two of which were scratchy.
It was Coombs' third victory over the Phillies, who are apparently help
less when the former local Idol Is on the mound. Another bright spot to
the double victory over the Phillies from a Brooklyn standpoint lies In the
showing of Sherrod Smith In the second gnme. This lad has been highly
touted for two years, but could never got stnrted, nnd It began to appear
that he was one of those pitchers who always look great In practice, but
never show anything In a game. Perhaps yesterday's victory Is all that he
needs to start him on a long string of victories. If Smith continues to show
form the Dodgers aro even better fortified on tho mound than was thought.
AtliletlcB' Leader Applies Acid Test to Pitchers
tanager Mack has started an elimination content with his pitching staff.
The sale of Herb Pennock to Boston was tho result of this plan. Mack had sent
Pennock to the mound often, In order to satisfy himself as to the youngster's
Worth, and after seeing glaring weaknesses and an Inclination to Indifference,
Mack decided to let htm go.
BreBslcr Is the next pitcher to pass through this stage. Mack said today
that he Intended to work Bressler regularly for thn next three weeks and give
him every chance to make good. If ho does not measure up to the mark, he,
too, will be cut adrift.
If Bressler survives the test, Mack expects him to develop rapidly and be
as good as any other southpaw In the game before the close' of the season. Wild
ness Is, apparently, Brcsslcr's only fault, aside from his lack of experience, and
plenty of work has always been a cure for lack of control. Pennock's physlquo
was a great drawback to his chances with tho Athletics, who need men who
can stand plonty of work with tho staff In Its present condition. In this respect
bressler Is fortunate. Ho Is a wonderfully built youngster and pitches with
Httlo exertion. As Mack expresses It, "Bressler will either be a marvel or n
busher."
Wyckoff, Shawkey, Bush and Bressler will bo worked In order from now
until the close of the season, according to Mack's present plans, and tho former
will bo worked out of turn when the double-headers start coming thick and fast.
Wyckoff needs plenty of work If he is going to master his tondency to wildness,
and nothing pleases the Willlamsport boy better than to bo working every third
day. This program undoubtedly has caused the great Improvement In Wyckoft's
work within the Inst two weeks.
Daviea, With Mack Three Years, Still a Problem
There, Is nna -vniinr mnn nn thn nluK whn hm XTnnir -iiBdninn. nH rnMi. i
& J rank to ndmlt it. That Is Davies, who insists that he Is a pitcher. When Davles
vS' Joined the Athletics he was suDoosed to b n. nltrher. hut Mnnir miiniriw -l,.
ered that he could hit the ball and converted him Into an outfielder. As an out
fielder Daviea was n success, and probably would have never had a chance to
pitch again had It not been for tho miserable work of the rest of the staff on tho
last home stand and in tho West. Mack finally was forced to send Davles to
the mound in Detroit, and he gave a wonderful exhibition for bIx Innings. Then
Manager Mack began to think he was a pitcher. But on his next two appear
ances on the mound the Amherst boy looked like a Joko twlrler. Now the Ath
letics' pilot does not know Just whether to consider Davles a pitcher or an out
fielder. "That lad Is either going to be a great pitcher or a great outfielder, and he
keeps me guessing as to which he is," said Mack. "I thought that he was a
pitcher, bu now I am prettty nearly convinced that ho Is not. I am going to
satisfy myself on that point while we are at home, and hereafter he will either
be a pitcher or an outfielder, and not waste time trylnir to be bnth. t hn. 0h
Davles under my wing for three years, ond I surely thought he was going to bo
a great pitcher, but I have Just heard that he Injured hla nrm two years ago.
I did not get this from Davles himself, but from an outsider, who seems to be
certain that this has greatly affected tho lad's work. This does not mean that I
will allow him to get away from me, even if he is not a pitcher, because he is a
mighty good-looking ball player. But It will help me solve my pitching problem
by eliminating another man.
Mack Has Confidence in His Pitchers
"My pitchers are showing better," continued Manager Mack. "I can see a
big improvement, and they will look even better after we get our cripples back
In the game. They will havo more confidence, nnd that should Improve their
control. Control Is tha only thing the four regulars are lacking, and they will be
worked In order now. It Is time Bressler was showing something, and I am
going to find out right now whether ha will be the great pitcher I expect or one
of those constant temptations who look great In practice, but never come through
with victories,
"I had expected Larry back In the game after a few days' absence but
Judging by a report I Just received, he Is not likely to be in the game for at
least a week. Malone will stay right hero and continue as the second baseman
-.. ,, , uVIV ouuu m , alm jmB aono nne work, -when one considers
that he has had no experience against major league pitching. He has convinced
. ... o u, imimm jiuier, unu i. mmK ne will improve right along. I had
no reason for wishing to conceal his Identity, and it was dona because he and his
father wished it that way."
Connolly, Georgetown Player, Wins Berth With Senator
Tbr were a number of Georgetown graduates at Shlbo Park Tues
day, prepared to welcome Tom Connolly, the Georgetown boy, who has
Jumped into major league ranks and won the left field berth on the Washing,
ton team from Howard Shanks, Connolly was a third baseman at George
town, but Manager Griffith switched him to the outfield when he Joined the
team In Chicago two weeks ago.
Connolly had been In the game two weeks when ha sprung a "Charley
horse." which is likely to keep him out for several days, and his friends
were greatly disappointed when little Acosta, the Cuban, was sent to left
Held. Griffith says that Connolly will be a regular as soon as his Injured leg
Is well enough, e
This youngster wsb Blgned by Washington in April with tha understanding
that ha was to report at tha close of the college term In June, but the Sen
MorB' outfield has been so weak that Griffith persuaded Connolly to leave college
early tn May and to Join tha team In Chicago. The fans wondered what use
Griffith was going to have for Connolly with Eddie Foster in good shapa and
Claying .great ball around third, but Grinith sprung a surprlsa by converting
the Georgetown boy Into an outfielder. Griffith says that Connolly Is the best
of the college players in this section of the country, and that he la going to be
a great hitter In a year or two. At prsnt Connolly Is hitting well over .300
for th IS games he baa played. He haU frrn Pittsburgh and played on the
WtUburgh Collegians with Jim Shaw, star Pitcher of the Senators threo years
ago.

Wetzel, of Northeast High School, and
Partridge, of West Philadelphia High
School, are picked to shatter presont

Followers of the various schools en
tered In the meet are manifesting much
Interest In the probable Individual high
point scorer. Centrul High's constitu
ents believe Smalley will romp oft with
the laurels, while the boys from across
the Schuylkill are pulling for Partridge.
Smalley and Partridge are each en
tered In three events. The Crimson and
Gold leader will compete In the high and
low hurdles, and unless r dark horse Is
uncovered he should have little trouble In
reaching tho tapo first In each race. H
has won every hurdle event he has com
peted tn here this season.
The West Philadelphia star will en

-1 polfer stood at the nineteenth ftole,
Tahlng a drive at the well-known bowl,
With never a slice and never a top,
Hut he hit the cup and he made 'cm drop;
Ills approaches ran to the edge of the bar,

Gobbling tha long ones, lejt and right,

When a friend remarked in a careless

"How did you stand in vour match to-

"I'll win in. a walk," he said, with a

"For I've got John Barlegcorn U down."
Plato Pete.
"What," requests F. L. T., "has become
of the old-fashioned filnntR who user) tn
have tho race sewed up about this part
of June?" Offhand, we should say that a
lot of old-fashioned ways and things are
no longer doing business In the Batno' old
way.
An Owner's Viewpoint
Colonel Joseph Lannln, proprietor of the
Red Sox, figures tho American League
race a 33-33-33 proposition among the
Whlto Sox, Tigers and Red Sox.
"There's not enough to choose," he
said, "to establish any opinion that Isn't
most guess. Chicago and Detroit are
both far better than for several years
and the Red Sox soon will be as they are
now, pointing toward their normal
stride. The battle among these three
Into the stretch should be one of the
best In many years."
In Thrills
"I used to think a home run Vlth the
bases full wsb the last word In thrills,"
icrlbbles Onlooker, "but nfter I saw that
Dame oeiween Tea Meredith and Wilcox
I knew I was mistaken. The llnlsh not
only lifted the hair on your scalp up.
but lifted tho scalp with lt. I can testify
that my heart stopped beating for the
closing It seconds."
Forced Marches
Hard luck crushei the quitter and turns
the stalwart Into a champion.
A husky bloke with the wallop is a
good bit more potent as a peacemaker
than any one else.
It has been advanced that Mr. Jim
Flynn. of Pueblo, Is extremely fond of a
battle. But Mr. Flynn's fondness can
hardly extend to the point where his
frontispiece Is mauled to a crimson pulp
and his block practically eradicated.
When he faces a man like Coffey It Isn't
through any love of a tight, but only
tertdtng to show just how far any number
of people will go to collect additional
kale.
The Big Bout Again I, '.
We can appreciate- Just what a SO.rpund
battle between Coffey and Wlllard quld
mean. It Is the best scrap In sight by a
numbar of fathoms. But we shudder when
we begin to think of what the noncom
batants must go through with while pre
liminaries are being .-djusted -and the ar
ticles signed. It Is almost enough to drive
one headlong tn the direction of the Flan-
derlan trench lines, where there Is noth
ing muuh but shrapnel nnd poisonous
gnees to assail the system.
A reader desires to find out what has
become of tho Wolsh-Itltchlo fight. We
didn't know they were even mad.
Or Won't They?
Tho Mackmen lust season, with n pen
nant winner, are reported to havo lost
anywhere between 0,000 nnd $50,000. Such
a deficit would certainly Justify Connie
-uuck in secKing rorno new way to oper
ato hip club. But If n pennant winner lost
money, will a tail ender have any luscious
chance of enticing the populace through
the gates and refilling the big chest7 Homo
".nnngo mignt bo In order, but we doubt I
that a sudden transition from a winner to
a tail ender is oxactly the change that !'
called for to Improve conditions.
