"A PENNANT
PHILLIES' POOR BATTING DRIVES THEM
FROM THE FLAG-FAVORITE CLASS
Locals Hit Safely but Dozen Times in Brooklyn Series
of Three Games Killefer's Injury Serious
Blow to Pat Moran's Ball Club
Three days ago It seemed that the Phillies had the pennant all but
clinched unless there was a wholesale crippling of players. It was surely
not an even money bet that the Dodgers or Hraves could overcome the large
lead that the Phillies had amassed. Today It Is almost a three to one bet that
the Phillies do not win the pennant. The loss of three straight games In
. Brooklyn was a terrific blow, but It was not so much the ground lost by the
defeats as tho manner In which the defeats were suffered.
On the homo lot the Phillies were hitting tho ball hard, and while no one
expected the team to do so well on tho larger nelds, the fans wore unpre
pared for tho miserable batting exhibition of tho leaders on the road. In
flvo games played In New York the Phillies got but 31 hits, an average
of a trine more than six to a game, which Is far from championship clubbing
form. With an average of six hits to a game, the pitcning sian is orumurny
compelled to pitch shut-out ball to win. As it happened, tho Phillies won three
out of five from the Giants, but Instead of improving in Brooklyn the Moron
men batted even worse.
Poor Batting by Locals in Brooklyn
In thi three.irame series with the
an average of four to a game. Perhaps It was because tho Brooklyn pitchers
were In unusual form, out that Is hardly likely. The chances aro that It was
mora dti to the Phlllv battlnir weakness on foreign fields than to the work
of the Brooklyn pitchers, as Robinson
pitched gomes In two weeks prior to
T mL. m,llr lunran Ihn Inflplri
pinch, something that is not apparent In any critical scries until tho last
week. Tho question is, Has the strain told on tho Phllly team at last? Four
games on the homo lot beforo departing for the West may bring tho team back
to Its stride nnd send them away with
If tho men could get out of their batting Blump and support the pitchers
In a pinch, there Is still plenty of room for hope, but an Injury to BUI Klllefer,
If It proves as serious as Is likely, will add further to tho Phllly woes.
Klllefer is suffering from a soro arm, and was forced to retire from yes
terday's game after two Innings, Manager Moran says that ho does not think
Klllefer will bo crippled long, but will send him to a specialist to find out Just
what is wrong with the arm that Is an absoluto necessity to tho team.
sc ' ' '
Killcfer May be Out of Game Rest of Season
Perhaps Killefer's arms has Just grown temporarily weak, but lame arms
are not as easy to get rid of as one would like to believe, and thcro Is a pos
sibility of Klllefer being out of the
of tho season. Eddie Burns is a clever backstop and he has been doing splen
did work in double-headers and as a relief man, but he is far from a Klllefer,
end a backstop of Killefer's calibre must bo in the line-up.
Killefer's clever work behind the bat has been largely responsible for the
splendid work of tho pitchers throughout the season, and Alexander and
Mayer are sure to have their effectiveness Impaired with Burns behind tho
bat. Burns handles Demareo and Rlxey well, but in the post has failed
dismally in receiving for Alexander and Mayer. Perhaps Burns might sur
prise the fans and catch sensational ball. He has a good head, fairly good
arm and Is a hard hitter. If he gets the breaks and keeps his head ho may
prove the man of tho hour for the I'hlls until Klllefer returns to the game.
It is sold that Klllefer insists on catching In the present series with the
Giants, but 11 would be a bad moVo to allow him to enter the gamo if he is
not right. A few days rest may bring his arm around in good shape, but If
he should enter the game and Injure It again, It is hardly likely he would
catch again this season.
Alex Likely to Put in Overtime Work
There Is still plenty of hope for the Phillies, ns there Is for any team with
a pitcher of Alexander's calibre and a one-gomo lead going Into the home
stretch. Manager Moran had been hoping that It would not be necessary to
Work Alexander out of turn, but from tho outlook at the present time it will
be necessary to start the Nebraskan In on his long grind.
Naturally, the Brooklyn fans are celebratinir todav and hnv vloir.no r,r ,h.
ftrst "pennant since 1901; but their celebration Is likely to prove premature.
as the Braves still look by far better than the Dodgers as a pennant possibility,
despite the three straight victories of Robinson's team over the Phillies. The
Phillies had little trouble with Boston three weeks ago and have been help
less before the Dodgers, but nevertheless the Braves are the team to be
feared, because they can nnd will finish strong. It Is a team that plays Just
as well on the road as at home, which Is more than can be said for Brooklyn.
The series between Boston and Brooklyn starting today la sure to hurt
one team that is battling the Phillies, and our guess would be that It will
hurt the Dodgers, despite the fact that they have the advantage of playing
at home. There is not n better home club in the National League than Brook
lyn, but they will And the Braves a different team than they were a few
weeks ago.

McLoughlln Will Be East Once More
While the personal friends of Maurice McLoughlln are grieved that he did
not capture the premier lawn tennis honors of the United States for 1915 they
will be delighted to know that the fiery "Mac" will be East again next' year.
Although no official announcement has ever been made by the famous "Comet "
Jt waa understood among those close In touch with him that if he won the cham
pionship this year, and with it permanent possession of the championship cup he
would retire from tournament play so far as the East was concerned. '
Now, however, that "Mao" Btlll has only two legs on the trophy thero is
no doubt about the fact that he will be back again for the purpose of winning the
cup outright and that if he fails In 1916 he will continue to strive for It for
several years to come.
In spite of the popular opinion that McLoughlln Is an "old-timer" at tennis
he Is not considering his age. "Moc"9 still a young man one of the youngest'
In fact, except his follow California friend and conqueror, Johnston, who ever won
tho championship of America.
Johnston a Marvel of Grit and Skill
Johnston's play against McLoughlln and Williams, whom he defeated on sue.
cesalve days-a feat that the mighty Australasians, Brookes and Wilding were
never able to accompllsh-indlcates not only that the little 130-pound youth is
same to the core, but that he Is as fully equipped with tennis knowledge as any
man in the game today. Combine these qualities with his long experience on the
Coast and his natural cleverness, and one finds him Just as he appealed n the
.recent tournament unbeatable. " "' lno

INTERCOLLEGIATE
GOLF TOURNAMENT
Old Eli Defeats Illinois, 6 Up

in Today's Play by
Princeton
R. D. PIERCE IS STAR
GREENWICH, Conn., Sept 8. For the
first time in the history of the Intercol
legiate golf championship, a Western
team started out In quest of tho team
title today, when the second of a series
of team matches was staged on the links
of the Greenwich Country Club.
The Unlevrslty of Illinois, Western
Intercollegiate champions, who drew a
bye yesterday, met Tale, while Princeton
and Pennsylvania came together.
W. Hamilton Gardner, 2d, the Tale
captain, and R. DeZ. Pierce led off the
Blue combination against John M. Simp
son; the Illinois "chief" and individual
college champion of the West, partnered
with F. H. White. Gardner and Pierce
won by 3 and 2, displaying an almost
undeniable brand of golf. Their best
ball would have been about 6S had they
finished the bye holes.
Doth Gardner and Pierce had threes on
the 310-yard first hole, and Pierce, re
cording another on the second, made his
eldo 2 up. It was evident on the third
and fourth that Pierce was in for a low
score, for he won both and made Tale
4 up. Simpson got Into his stride, how
ever, and won the next two holes single
handed. Pierce sprang another 3 at the
eighth, while Gardner's 2 at the ninth
made Tale 4 up at the turn. White con
tributed to Simpson's support two holes
coming in, but his help came too lato
for Tale won the match. The best ball
cards follow:

F. 8. Gaines and D. L. Armstrong had
no trouble In disposing of H. H. White

Rev. Mr. Todd Becomes "Kid" Todd as the Result of a
Short but Effective Fistic Encounter With Nipper
Canby, the Demon of the Terrors
By CHARLES E. VAN LOAN
Tba World's Most Famous Writer of Baseball Fiction.
Pete MacXabb, manager of the Terrora,
was never eo shocked In all his life ai
when David McKlnstry Todd Insisted that
a "Sunday clause" be Inserted In hie con
tract. Todd waa snapped up by the old
scout, Joe Sherman, who saw him play for
the last time In the uniform ot his alma
maier. rne ooy was studying lor xno min
istry In a Methodist college, when a dirty
tsnker embeztled his mother's meagre sav
ings. Rather than see his sisters taken
from high school, Todd decided to let the
ministry wait and earn some money. That's
how Sherman was able to get the college
shortstop to fill tho shoes of the veteran
Charlie Hsdsell. who wrenched his anklo
eliding to second. Just as the pennant race
was beginning to tighten.
Tood made good from the word "go."
Hut tho Terrors were a rough eet tho
roughest In the league and did not tike the
idea of a Methodlat preacher in their mldet.
So. not finding anything to criticise about
lh collegian's playing, they decided to go
fter his Individuality, and the "goat
getting" procedure began In earnest.
Copyright, Street t Smith. 1011.
Sandy Wallace argued heavily against
the immortallay of the soul.
"When you're dead," he said, "you're
dead, and that leta you out. There ain't
no coming back, because the-e ain't noth
ing to come back. All this bunk about
llvln' forever and pounding on a golden
harp is out of date. Hey. you kid Todd,
what d'you think about it?"
David came out of the shower room
with a bath towel wrapped around his
neck, a fine statue of muscular Chris
tianity boiled pink by hot water.
"Huh?" said he. "Oh, yes. Arguing
about immorality again? Well, Wal
lace, you may not have a soul, but I
think I have."
Flnucane. Bob Kldd, Sam Souzay,
and several others lent a hand. The
thing which troubled them was that they
had not been able to make the new man
show resentment in any way. Natural
ly, they jumped to the conclusion that
Todd was seeking to avoid trouble.
"Tou see, kid." said MacNabb to
Todd, "they don't really mean you no
harm. They Just want to see If you're
game. Now, if you'd wallop one of 'em
good and plenty, they'd lay oft of this
stuff for ket?s. Vhey think you won't
fight."
"Uh-huh," said Todd gravely. "That's
about the way I sized it up when the
thing Btarted."
"Sure! That's Itl Now, I could horn
in and stop It, but It would only
make It harder for you In the long run.
If a thing has got to come, you know,
the sooner It comes the better. If you
get a felon on your finger, the sooner
she gets ripe the sooner she gets well.
Now, looky, Flnucane Is a cinch. Every,
body on the club has licked him, be
cause he's got a glass Jaw. Next time
Flnucane starts anything. Just chip him
once on the chin. Get a knockout or two
In your record, and there won't be no
more of this preacher stuff! But don't
go mixing up any with Canby. He's a
hard nut in a nght."
"Tough, is he?" asked David. "Well
Mr. MacNabb. I'm getting sick of his
translations from Rabelais."
"Rabble A?" said MacNabb. "Come
again. I don't make that one."
A few days afterward, with the full
team for an audience, and the target close
at hand, Canby opened nre upon the Sun
day question.
"Preachers won't wont on Sunday," said
Nipper. "For the matter o' that, I never
sea one of 'em that would work any day
In tho week. They never do nothing
Just loaf around and live off the poor.
Methodists are" v
Nobody ever knew Just what It was that
Nipper was about to remark about the
Methodtats. Nipper himself couldn't re
member. He was conscious of an Inter
val filled with pinwheels, skyrockets, Ro
man candles, Veauvlan flowerpots and
other constellations of light and color
which ended with the Jarring explosion
of heavy artlllery-13-lnch guns at the
very least.
Davey Todd knelt beside the uncon
scious second baseman.
"Stand back from him!" said Todd
shortly. "He Isn't hurt as badly as he

a mouthful of blood, and In this process
his exploring tongue came upon the
wreck of some expensive dentistry.
David McKlnstry Todd arose and ad
dressed himself to the attentive athletes.
"I didn't come here to preach to you
fellows. I came here to play ball. Some
of you don't seem to want to let me.
Tou've been trying to find out If I
would fight. I might as well do the
wholo thing at once, and have it over
with. Is thero anybody here who wants
to take Canby's end of this contro
versy?" There was a breathless pause, broken
at last by murmurs of admiration.
"All right." said Todd. "Everybody
happy. Now let's have a rest on this
preacher question!"
There was no demonstration. No
body offered to shake hands or pat
Davey Todd on the back. The Terrors
were not built that way, but from that
day dated Todd's standing and full mem
bership. He became "Kid" Todd, and
the word. "preacher" was not again used
in his presence.
It was a week or 10 days before Canby
opened his mouth to the shortstop, save
In the way of business. Ono afternoon
Todd was crossing the field before the
game, and Canby came up behind him.
"Say, hoy," remarked tho second base
man, "tho dentist says It'll nick me 50
beans to get that bridge fixed up again."
"That's too bad," said Todd. "I'm
sorry."
"So'm I, kid." said Canby. with a grin.
"I made a darn fool of myself. It was
comln' to me."
That was all he said, then or thereafter,
but it was enough to establish cordial
relations between the men, and before
the season was out the profane Canby
was Todd's warmest friend. The young
ster had to fight for his spurs, but he
won them fairly.
Quito naturally there were some In
Pleasanton. the town in which the Todds
lived, who were ery much shocked to
hear that Davey Todd had gone and
Joined a baseball gang." These, mostly
old ladles, thought that the boy should
have remembered his sainted father. The
unregenerate In the vlllage-largely out
numbering the others were swelled with
pride at Davey's achievements, and sub
scribed to sporUng weeklies Jn order that
they might follow the trail of his mighty
bat throughout the season. His batting
average was a matter of olvio pride, and
Mrs. Todd was often congratulated by
people with whom she had but a bow
ing acquaintance.
That worthy woman never expressed an
opinion upon the subject of the profession
which her son had chosen. Bhe read his
letters carefully, and having great con
fidence in David, did her best to accept
his statement that he was using a means
to an end. The girls were not pleased;
but Jennie, who was of a practical turn
of mind, counted the dollars, and
estimated the earning capacity of several
of the sucessful young men whom she
knew, comparing their incomes with
Dave's salary check. After that there
seemed to be nothing to say.
When his first season woo over, David
hurried home, and narrowly escaped a
serenade by the Pleasanton Silver Har
mony Band.
The boy was trim and brown, and in
what the fighters call the pink of condition-whatever
that may be. He had re
fused to sign a contract for the next
season, explaining to MacNabb that he
had not settled In his own mtnd whether
or not to continue his big-league career.
pf'' wj was wiser than he looked,
realized that the boy was not playing for
more money, and that he might not re
turn. The old manager had come to know
the t th n'Ver "P0k8 anythln' b"t
"He'll be going back home to see what
cn.,ck up 'round there," thought
"oTor them" ' Mm "
The crafty manager was right David
canvassed him home town thoroughly in
search of work. The best offer he re-
aSI'omIS.! f60 TO,?nth' e"d bhn by
Abe Goldstein, of the Pleasanton denta'
Furnishings Emporium. Abe was smart
enough to know that a blg-leVgue ban
Player would bring the young m'n of
the town Into his place. ot
That meant 1720 a year-for selling neck
ties 52 weeks on end. While i dIvm -
turning it over and over In his mind Tn'
wondering what he should do thwe m.
a letter from Pt jiw.i .?.r .cma
,.. . inclosing a
contract which offered $3000 for the next
season.
-Long division was called Into play.
MacNabb was offering more than four
times as much as GoldBteln for a little
more than eight months' work. Now,
what would a eenslble young man do
under such circumstances?
David pointed out to his mother and
sisters that a man might save something
on 3720 a year enough so that, say, In
40 years, he might be Independent On
the other hand, baseball would produce
a nest egg In one-tenth the time. And,
with the $3000 staring out from the faco
of the contract, what was there for the
mother to say? Nothing but that David
do as he thought best.
"Kid" Todd rejoined the Terrors In the
springtime, and, on the evening when
he reported for duty, Pete MacNabb
opened a quart of wine and drank It all
himself.
