The wine fellows tnlk about tho Cubs, I'trntes nnd Giants of other years, and tell you that the Hraves, Superbas and rtilllics ate "bush" clubs when compared with the great pennant AUtXANUKlt winners from Chicago, pitv urgh and New York. Xi sort or talk makes we weary. How In tne name 01 cumiiiuii dvhbc is nnyoony know' that the Cubs of 1507 and IMS re superior to any one of the three Si.. of today? They may think so. ind they may point to certain record and figures to piove it, but tho only plnco It to settle baseball supremacy Is on the Nlimond In a game or scries of game. W If you could bring back the Chicago I'ne-up Intact nna in mo same condition iw were In 1WS. tho Phillies would be r'rlsd of the opportunity to play them, and H'l "don't believe the nvetage fan would bet V his 1916 motorcar against n houso and tint that our club would bo defeated. m! The clubs from Boston, Brooklyn and f Philadelphia cio not enjoy tno lean over the'flve others that the two or three pen- Lull contenders Invariably had at this V'ctar ,. the race soma vears back, lint tUt Is not necessarily a knock against the class of tho National League this jtar. Rather, I call It a tribute to the tight teams In our organization. It-shows that all are capable of putting up a stiff fight every day, and that no team Is licked when It walks on the Held. fj CLUBS WELL BALANCED. T The National eague is wen-Dainnccu. I know thnt no club Is easy for mo to i Wat. I nna tnni i must pucn jusi as V h.rA at-nlnal Kt T.nlltn nnrl flnMnttn tl no T do against the first division teams. That was not always true In lears gone by. i ! remember me t'me when the tnll-cml clubs In the National League almost hated to put on their uniforms. They figured that tho chances were about 3 to I that they would lose the game. I do not think nny team actually quit cold, or handed over the win on a gold platter. But they did not have, the "old pep" which Is a part of the maltc-up of a club that flguies it has about an even chance to win tho game. It was universally agreed that the Ath letlca' 1914 Infield Mcliinls. Collins, Barry and Baker was one of the greatest (If not the greatest) quartets over formed In the big leagues. 1 had an opportunity to see them play against our club In iprlng scries, and they certainly did work with a. precision and confidence that was o fine. i But, when Connie Mack's club played f the Braves In the world's scries last ucioDer, me American L.eagueis were defeated. Even the wonderful Infield did not save them from the humiliation of four straight. I mention this now to I' "class" that gets there. a uunurea aim more excuses nave been offered for the unexpected slip of tho Athletics when they nlnjed Boston.

That Clubs Are of Weak X Braves were world's champions and had tho long end of the money award. Do you sunnosn Hint the nhllltra ever give a thought to the statements that tho National Leaguo lacks the "class" this car? Oet that Idtm out of your head, it wc can win tho flag. It will bo re corded In tho baseball hlstorten that the Philadelphia National League club won Its first pennant In 1915. And 10 enrs fiom this year nobody will even mention the "class" of tho league. Instead. It will bo put down In the books as a tight race between well-balanced clubv. You kti.v, Chicago, New York and Pittsburgh got the pennant habit. The three cities believed they had a chiim plonshlp trust and the light invariably narrowed down to n question of which one of the threo would leprescnt the National League In the world's series. Then last year Cloorgo Stalllngs camo along nntl got a pennant for his Boston club. This season, two other clubs rated last winter as second-division calibre by the cities of the championship trust, chal lenged Boston's right to capture two pen nants In a row. And now they say the National League has gone back! Wonder It that would be said If Clilcaso, New York or Pitts burgh were "up there"? 1 will not compare our Infield with the quartets that represent Boston and Brookln. 1 will not stand them up alongside those of the Chicago Cubs of inos and tht Athletics of 1911. Tho fans nnd experts may Innke the comparisons Hut our Infield li doing all that Manager Moran asks of It and Is helping to win ball games for tho Phillies. That Is all wo want. FAN VS. THE PLAYER. Baseball aVwnvs has appealed to me as a funny game, because the players do not look upon It the same as do the specta tors I could name n halt dozen bats men wlt.i groat renitatlons who always t cause fans to bite .heir fingernails when these sluggos com- up In a pinch. But I would rather pitch against some of them than players who arc figured as outs be fore they swing a bat. It may stem funny to you, bat it is quite true. It Is an easy thing for u big winner to get a reputation. That Is true of any game, nnd of teams nnd Individuals Once a club or a man gets a "rep" things come their way fast. Didn't somebody say that "Nothing succeeds like success?" Thar fits baeball. It happened that this season the only club In our league with n reputation was tho Braves. They had won a world's title and were picked to repeat. But, at the same time, they had been rated ns some what below normal championship strength because "the league did not possess the class in 19H" to quote from the ex perts. Therefore no club started tho 1915 cam paign believing that It were hopelessly out of It. Every one said "We've got a chance," and that Is tho kind of base ball they ped. The consequence was that the eight clubs kept plugging away nnd did not allow the Braves nor any other "favorite" to get away to a long lend. You may bring up 100 arguments to try to prove to me that the National Leaguo leaders of 1915 are not equal. to the Cubs, Giants and Pirates that were. But I'll say to you that you can't prove it. And because It has been a fight from start to finish the pennant winner Is going to feel more highly rTonored than some teams that found It virtually a walkaway In years gone by.

Little Willie Is the only name he has it Ktacca the hiiKe signboard over his peanut stand at Central Park, near tho busy home of the Bethlehem Steel Works. Llttlo W,llllo weighs piac tkally 4U0 pounds. He cuts a dashing, though somewhat persplrntory, figure under the flickering lights of his little stand. In tho mornlngn he has nothing much to do but read the sporting page. "What's this game called goluff I hear bo much about?" Llttlo Willie frequently wanted to know. Fortunately or tinfor tunutelv, the golf course of tho Lehigh vnlloy Country Club Is no more than a blcck away from Llttlo Willies stand, and bo, In the natuial course of human events, Willie one day last week waddled over to have a look. A golfer wasjmon keylng around aimlessly and, spying Llt tlo Willie, his heart leaped up. "Why doncha try It?" ho asked. "Helleve I will," unsnered the rotund William at once. "Lend me a stick and one of these hero balls." He was handed a brassle and a ball was dropped for him. "What's tho ldear of this here same?" Inquired Willie, as he flourished the tooth pick brassle In his huge hands. "Wal lop It as far as that flag," said his In structor. Llttlo Willie could not look over his chest, and the only way he could locate the ball on tho ground In tho shadow of his billowy tummy was by feel ing for It with his foot. When he had It nil spotted ho groanlngly twisted up his huge bulk slightly, and, turning his feet out, swung blindly for the unseen ball. Strange to relate, he found It, and the ball sped arrow-like thence. But the bras Flo wrapped Itself like n whip around Llttlo Willie's great girth. The heavy head took him In the ribs and William took the count. He Is proud of that shot, which was never found, but If cuicd Little "Willie of bin golfing passion. "When mo ribs heal It's back to th' peanuts for mine," he says. Some rare golf for Philadelphia finals was on exhibit at Whitemarsh Saturday during the rounds for the Gelst Cup. Tho best match in the morning waa that be tween Eliret and Newton, which the lat ter finally pulled out In 19 holes, after being six down and seven to go. Khret had eeven chances to halve two IioIch. By Intense play ha managed to steal nround a half stymie on the 17th for one of his needed halves, but could not make his approach shots stick on the APPEAR IN 0LYMPIA BOUTS TONIGHT flaaaHflalaalaV J flak. al pfjjlRL aMaflHaaB' "BSBu -"' '0 LOUiSIWl Al Shubert will be Louisiana' opponent In the nemlwlndup of tho nil-banUm ehow tonight,.

Church, Princeton, is the holder of the intercollegiate tennis championship, won last year when he defeated R. Norris Willinms in the final. J. R. Row land is the leader of the Uni versity of Pennsylvania quartet, and W. M. Washburn is Williams' side-kick in doubles. Play be gins tomorrow at Merion. next two greens, which he lost with the match. During tho match Newton's famous golfcmeter cap spun around, went bnclcwurd, sldeway nnd every other way. llhret had gone out close to par nnd Newton was six down nt the turn, nhret slid ufter they hnd halved tho next two and Newton never let up. His best shot was on the IStli. when ho holed out a 40-foot Bhot from the lough for a bird when Uhiet was dead for par four. Heart throb followed thrill on the next hole. Newton wns In tho tangles of tho lough nnd nearly lost his ball, while L'hrct was Just off the green. But New ton fixed up a stymie and prevented a half. Ehret was falling fast, but ho was still one up and two to go. He sliced a 10-foot dilve to some rocks, but showed his nervo by putting his whole heart Into the next. Newton had a good chance to even things fiom the top of the bunker guard ing the green, but ho popped his ball Into a trap off on one side. Newton snowcu tne nnest exhibition of nerve I witnessed in tills city for a long time. Playing the worst game he has had this season going out and being all but dorm led all tho way In, Newton never fal tered but went right after every nolo. It Is stuff like that that makes the great golfer. Cleveland and Klauder, two of Aronl mlnk's star boarders, also had a fine set to In the semi-finals. Klauder continued the sensational game he has played all through tho tourney. He took a deep dip below 40 going out and had Cleveland five down, But Cleveland did not lose heart and, playing the best he knew, re duced the lead to three holes. But Klau der began pulling a string of dead-to-the-holo shots so that Cleveland finally had to say good-by. Cleveland would have won the Uth and bave made trou bio while he was going so well but Klau der rolled up a lucky stymie right to the Up of the cup and prevented a win by his opponent. Klauder played like a clock for the clock, which was tho first prize. He said his .matches In this tournament were the first he had won In any tournament for two years. He haa not even won a match In the defeated eights.

PLAY Few Changes a Tribute to the Good Work of Dr. J. A. Babbitt POINTS IN THE REVISION With the exception of a few minor changes, the football rules for 1915 are th ami ns compiled by the Rules Commit tee last winter. For the first time In history, football officials and coaches accepted the playing code without urging numerous changes, and the meeting In the Blltmore Hotel In New York Saturday night was the short est on record. Each rule was gone over carefully, but ho flaws were found and. save for a few changes In the wording and one additional note, the 30 tactions were unanimously approved. The nctlon of tho football officials, who are the real Interpreters of the rules, shows that at last the code Is standard ized nnd settled, It has been the custom In these annual gatherings to spend halt of the night In squabbling nnd making changes. After the rules had been torn npart and patched up, the Rules Commit tee would send out pink slips to ofllclnls and coaches showing where the changes weto to be made. There Is no cause for delny this year and It Is doubtful whether the usual pink slips will be Bent cut. Too much credit cannot be given 1W. J. A. Babbitt, of Philadelphia, chairman of the Central Board on Officials and memoer of the Rules Committee, for the pioscnt condition of the playing code. For nlno years Dr. Babbitt has borno the brunt of the work, not only In ap pointing officials for alt of the college games In this section of the country, but also In gathering data to simplify the rules from jear to year. That hl work has been appreciated was shown when the 200 football men at the meet ing tendered him a vote of thanks. There was but one teal argument at the gathering, nnd It arose over the ques tion as to when a referee should or snould not blow his yhlstle after tho play began. It was a trivial thlnif at fit at, but It soon grew Into huge propor tions nnd for a short time the meeting had all the appearances of a Socialist convention. Soon after the meeting wns called to order bv Walter Camp, Judge James Evans, of Little Falls. N. Y., discovered a note under section 12 of rule 6. This note stated that "a referee should never blow nls whistle to indicate a foul whll the ball Is In play, but If he Inadver tently does so, the ball Is dead and the play shall stop." Mr. Evans cssertcd that this should be changed and allow ' the referee to stop the play Immediately when nn Illegal forward pass was made. A torrid debate followed, all mcjnber participating. Two factions sprang up, one led by Morlce, of Penn, and Lang ford, of Trinity, nnd the other byEvans, Okesnn, of Lehigh, nt.d rharllciipiarthy. of Germantown. Each side g0m endeav oring to prove that te other p. r the wrong, nnd ho spor.hea flow "J and forth as the peraplrlng officials t -'.iU'd Patrick Henry. When the orator was r.t Us height they discovered that both stdus wero niculnc for the snme thing, and Mr Evans' suggestion was approved without a dissenting vote. It also was ruled than when a kicked ball hits a player on the kicker's side the) penalty, which Is loss bt the ball on ths spot where the foul occurred, can ba declined. This means that If tho ball, after striking an ineligible player. Is re covered by nn opponent and a long' gain results, the offended side Is allowed to decline the llrBt penalty and keep the ball where It wns downed. Another rutins was that In case the ball Is In the air ana a foul Is committed, the ball goes to the offended side on the spot where th foul occurred without any distance pen alty If a plaer Intentionally "roughs" the fullbick he Is disqualified and his team ponall-id 13 yards. If the foul is not de liberate only the 13-ynrd pennlty Is glen. Annthor nnlnt brought out Is that It la Intention of the Rules Committee to make, players on the offensive team conform to the conditions on tho line of scrimmage or else retire a full yard. Here are tho changes In the rules: Rule VI. Section 13 At the end Of the note mid "except as provided for an II-' legal forward pass." Rule XVII. Section 2 (b) Insert thf word "player" at tho end of next Jto fhe Inst 'Ine, making the rule read. " from getting at a player of their own slde who U enrteuvoilng to get at the ball or pliiM-r' who Is earning It." Rule XXIII, Sectlo I-Under the third penaitv ellmlnato tr last line and sub stitute" "place of tl distance penally." The penalty now rendu. "If the offense is committed behind tho goal line a touch back shall be allowed In place of tho dis tance penalty." Is your shave a daily bugaboo? REXINOL JHAVBNG STICK turns it to joy.
