That's what they said a year ago about the Btalllngi puih, At iohlch the Braves arose and drove the Mackmen to the bush. The Red Sox hurlcrs may be fair; We'll e'en admit that they are there, But all the honored experts cannot win with heated air. r And who should start to pity Pat, and mourn, upon the ground Of Insufficient talent as to twtrlcrs hanging 'roundt With Alex good for three or four, And others thirsting for their gore, The lted Sox heavU'battlno men have quite a treat In store. American Leaguers Not Keen on Phllly Pitchers CHw American League manager dcclnrcs that tho Phillies cannot hope to , as they have not a strong- enough pitching staff. He says that Hoston four pitchers who have won 70 per cent, of their games, while tho Phillies tsj only one twlrler, Alexander, who has accomplished ns much, nnd that re Is oly one other twlrler on tho Phllly start who can boast of a mark ch better than .500 per cent Even the most rabid American leaguer will admit that Alexander should n two games If he Is In form, but none can see where tho Phillies can ipect to win any more. It Is argued that tho four men who art" well over he .700 mark are all sure to win from the Phillies If given a chance ugalnst anybody but Alexander. They overlook tho dlffercnco In the standing of the -.cams of the two leagues. Difference in League Standings Must Be Considered It Is only natural for the pennant winning club of a league where 390 points parate the eight teams to have three or four men winning so many games; '& one could hardly expect a team to have more than two twlrlers above e .660 mark In a race where only 121 poIntH separate the eight contestants. It W a rare occurrence for more than three pitchers to be used on the iund by the winning team in n world's scries, and It often happens that a cher is successful In his own league becauso ho or his catcher has a won- irful knowledge of tho batsmen In his own league. Alexander Has Had Experience Against American Leaguers That rule works both ways, nnd It Is barely possible that the Red Sox tgiit be able to bat Alexander hard, but the chances are slim, as Alexander nit a flash In the pan, nor does he need the, powerful support that some , this Boston pitchers have. Alexander haB been a winner and a star ever since he broke into the atlonal' League, and ho never was troubled by the champion Athletics In jterleague series, which Is more than can be said for any pitcher on the osfon staff, barring Joe Wood, and it Is no certainty that Wood will bo able ' ( pitch even a single game. 1 ... Boston Youngsters Might Blow Perhaps Last season .everal of the young pitchers of the Athletics made unusual records, and this 1robably hastened Mack's tearing apart of the team, as he believed these youngsters were rlpo to take the place of the departing veterans, but not so. It Is barely possible that this might be the case with the young , stars of the Red Sox staff. . It is admitted that nltchinc Is more than half the battle in the world's La aeries, and without considering the strength of the two teams In other depart- nenis it seems ramer rasn lor one 10 lstlnct advantage in pitching because great records for the present season. ... Cocksurencss Welcomed By Phillies jiKome. American Leaguers are inclined to believe that Alexander will not shades. work more than three gomes at the most, and that there is not button sner on th0 phllly team who has a chance to beat the Red Sox. contrrnlyilly hopo that the Red Sox enter the series under this Impression, the v "atevjijost certain to receive the surprise of their lives. Judge AthleU.ni entered the 1914 series against the Braves absolutely certain U'e'Jll James might win one game, but that the other Boston pitchers would "easy. Their Judgment was based on the fact that the averages of the to re tKe Braves' pitching staff did not compare favorably with those of than vn pitchers. dandy did. not stop to consider the poor start of the Braves or the close jm'tthe race and tho moral effect of Dick Rudolph's victory In the first game. Jfapa st " "Dut" Chalmers of , JVfust at present Manager Moran has three other pitchers beside Alexander a, aro likely to beat any team that was ever constructed. fnJlven an even share of the breaks, Georgo Chalmers is one of the hardest thera In the land to beat, and only poor support In the field and little batting J itanco has prevented him showing nn average that would rival any in lther league. Chalmers is decidedly of world's series pitching calibre. He has great W. a, fine drop bull and one of the best of spltballs. Another factor In hatcaerB favor for a series of this sort Is that he can stand up under the i9im and Is a pitcher who will not' blow up In the pinch. i . . . fhircornerft Mayer and Kixey Should Deliver Wesley AfrhRIxey both possess enough stuff to beat the Red Sox If they aftUrCh' tY,!t U ,B a world'8 8erlea game.

I More Players In terested AMERICAN GAME DIFFERS A step that will go a long way toward popularizing polo has been taken by tho Gcdney Farm Country Club, whose polo playing members met and decided to re build the field adjoining the Gedney Farm Hotel to conform to the requirements of the game as It Is played In India, the land of its origin. The Indian game of polo, which was carried around the world by British army officers, who learned It in the Orient, will be played at Gedney Farm hereafter Instead of the American adaptation of polo which prevails everywhere else In this country except at Meadow Brook, where the Indian game has been played for three seasons. The difference between tho original game of polo as It Is played In India and Europe and that played In America Is In the dimensions of the Held and the ar rangement of tho periods or "chuckers." Tho standard. American polo ground Is 900 feet long and 430 feet wide. The Indian Meld Is tho same length, but 30 feet nar rower, a restriction which calls for bet ter horsemanship and more skilful play ing. The American game Is played In eight periods of seven and one-half minutes each, with a rest of seven minutes after tho fourth "chucker." This makes It an exceedingly fast performance for the ponies and necessitates the maintenance of a stable of from four to seven or eight mounts by each player. Many polo players In this country maintain that at least seven ponies are required If the player has any consideration for his horses at all. The Indian game, however, is played In seven "chuckers" of six and one-half minutes each, with a 10-mtnute Interval after tho fourth period. Under these con ditions many British officers in India play through tho season with only two ponies. In a climate that Is much more trying on the mounts than even the summer climate of the United States. P. R. R. FIELD GAMES BIG FEATURE TODAY Annual Championships Are Held on P. R. R. Y. M. C. A.

MACK Manager of Athletics De clares Moran Has Great Club STRAIN ON CONTENDERS "Don't worry about ttie Phillies crack ing. They will not crack, and there never was a chance of them cracking after the series with the Giants." This Is what Manager Mack, of the Athletics, thinks of the dope that Is being handed out thnt the Phillies are likely to crack before, the world's series. "The New York series was the critical point In the race for the Phillies, I think," continued Mack. "After they get back two of the three games they lost Jn Brooklyn I was certain they would win the pennant, because the strain Im mediately changed owners. "Wncn a team can go Into the last month of the race with a three or four game lead 1 have always found that the strain Is on the teams that are trying tp come from behind. It does not matter whether It has been making the pace for the entire season when t'ne race reaches that ntage. The possession of the lend Is half tho battle in the last month of the seabon. "It Is a difficult thing for any man or body of men to keep their confidence and fighting spirit at the proper .pitch when t'nere Is a team Just ahead that refuses to lose. The Phillies showed In the New York series that their nerve was not gone, and with great pitchers, there was no chance for the rest of the team to crack after that. "Just try coming from behind In any thing, and you will see how hard It Is when there Is only a certain length of time left The Rraves came from behind, but they were chasing a team that was slipping fast, and even at that I doubt very much If tho Braves would have passed the Giants If McQraw had been able to keep his tenm in front until the middle of September. "A club that Is pursuing another In tho final stretch of a pennant race Is under a greater strain than the leader, because tin mm liavo more to think about and they Invariably worry more. Tho leader Is thinking only of the game at hand and knows that the loss of ono game does not mean so much to horn as It does to the team that Is trying to pick up a game each day, "With but few exceptions I have not seen a really good ball team overhauled this late In the) race, nor have I seen a teum crack before the world's series be cause of tho hard race. The team or teams that are after the leaders In variably give up suddenly. As they see the season drawing to a 'close with the leader playing with great consistency, they get the Idea that the leader will never lose nnd finally say: 'What's the use, they won't stop," "Teams In this position also have the tendency to 'crab' top much because the other teams are not coming to their aid, and that hurts them. I know the Phillies have a good ball team, and good ball teams do not crack In a pinch, particu larly when they have great pitching. "The strain Is on the Braves and Dodgers and has been for some time, and they are likely to give up the chaso any day now. That forlorn hope of the last two series Is fine to figure on paper, but when those series come I think you will find that the Phillies will more than hold their end up. It Is a fine team and has been handled In a wonderful manner, Of course I have not been able to ses them, but I follow them pretty closely nevertheless and know what they are capable of. "About tho world's serlesT Well, I pre fer not to talk about that, t am an American Leaguer, a manager and a magnate, and that naturally counts some; but I want to say also that I am a Phlladelpblan. I havo been for IS years and always expect to be a Phlladelphtan, and I want to see the city get everything it can. The Phillies are a great team and they are playing a great team. If they win the -lty should be proud of a good, clean club that Is a credK to the game, and I'll tell you that Connie Mack will' be proud pf them too," ON THE PHILLIES' MRS. VANDERBECK TRIUMPHS IN FINAL OVER MRS. C.F.F0i National Golf Champion Scores 3 Up and 1 to Play in Ber- thellyn Cup Test at Noble MATCH WELL CONTESTED NOBLE, Pa., Sept. 25. Mrs. Clarence H. Vanderbeck did what was expected of her and defeated Mrs. Caleb F. Pox In the final round of the Berthellyn Cup at the Huntingdon Valley Country Club to day, 3 up and 1 to play. It was by no means a runaway affair for Mrs. Vanderbeck and she had to play her very best golf In order to win. Mrs. Fox also played very fine golf, and tlmo and time again out-drove her opponent. She Hi raw away very few chances, and, seeing that Mrs. Vanderbeck was out in 44 and home In 43, It would havo taken miraculous golf to beat her. The national champion won the first hole when, after both had sliced their drives, Mrs. Fox took three to get on the green as against two. Two putts each gave Mrs. Vanderbeck tho hole, 4 to 6. The second and third holes were halved In sixes. On the fourth hole Mrs. Van derbeck missed her third shot and went Into tho bunker and the hole cost her a 6 to a 6. Tho fifth was halved in three, both driving tho green. Both drovo Into tho bunker on the sixth, but Mrs. Fox had a very awkward He and It cost her two strokes. Mrs. Vanderbeck was well out and won with a 6 to a 7. Both got sixes on tho seventh hole, and on the eighth Mrs. Fox missed her third shot and was short with her fourth. Mrs Vanderbeck was well on In thtco and down In five to seven. With the ninth halved In fives Mrs. Vanderbeck was two up at tho turn. Mrs. Vander beck played a good shot out of the sand on the third and secured a half In three. On the 10th hola Mrs. Fox drove Into the creek with her second and lost her ball, and this pleco of bad luck cost her the hole, six to five. On the 12th, Mrs. Fox lost a grand chanco for a win by missing a putt for a three, but on the 13th sho did better and won, with a five to a six, when her opponent put her third In the ditch. Tho 14th was halved In fours, and on the 15th Mrs. Fox put her second In the creek and lost the hole, six to four. Both were on the green In four on the 16th, but Mrs. Vanderbeck lost by taking three putts to two.- Mrs. Fox drove Into the rough on tho 17th and failed to get out with her second. Sho was In tho pit with her third and only Just out with her fourth. Mrs. Vanderbeck was on In three nnd down In two more, giving her the hole and match. The carda: Mra.

How It Works Out So, of the eleven world series games Played, four were figured as oven propo sitions before the first blow was struck. Of the other seven games, where thrro was pronounced advance evidence in fa vor of one club, tho favorite came through tidily on three occasions and was beaten four times. Which means that while the unaerdoga haven't been consistent winners, thy havo moro than held their won having operated four upsets out of seven chances. Red Sox Favorites In 'this next series the Red Sox un doubtedly will be slight favorites. They will be favorites because with their out field and Infield combination on defense, plus their pitching, they look to havo greater defensive strength. And because they havo a harder hitting club. But where this margin, club for club, might be strongly In Boston's favor. It will be pruned down by tho supercxccl lence of ono great pitcher Alexander. Those supporting the Phillies will do so largely In the belief that Alexander can do In Jfl5 what Mathewson did in 1905 win thrco games; and that Demareo Chal mers or another Phllly pitcher can at tach tho fourth. Or they are figuring that Big Alec of tho side-arm sweep will bag at least two games and that his pals will nail two more oUt of their four or five starts, bolstered up by the slugging of CraVath and Luderus. They, will be playing two pr three men against an entire club In tho knowledge that two or three sturs before have been sufficient to spin a dizzy upset In a short thatch of from four to seven games. But thoy will have no chance to; match tho two clubs, mnn for man, on copy paper and prove tho Thllly machine Is the better balanced array. Both Phillies and Red Sox havo proved THE FINN SELECTED AS BEST 1915 COLT Hallenbeck's Thoroughbred Has Run Some Sensational Races for Youngster At tho beginning of the ceason II. C. Hallenbeck's 3-year-old Ogden Livonia colt. The Finn, which he purchased from John E. Madden, displayed such form as to warrant his being selected as one of the colts, .If not the colt, of the year, and by his manner of winning the Man hattan Handicap, In which he was giving weight to everything, ho Is about to finish the year with many partisans who will assert that he Is the best of his age. Recently The Finn started In the Jerome Handicap, at one mile, and was beaten by the proverbial eyelash by Trial by Jury, which appeared to havo the better at the racing luck, this being aided by an unwitting mlstako by Davles, the Jockey, when he took The Finn back Just before getting to tho stretch. Following this, nnd after ho had been several lengths out of It. The Finn came with wet sail and Just failed In getting up. Many criticised Davles' ride, for which he was not blamed by the trainer of the horse, E. W. Heffner, who vlqwed It us mm ui mose minga wnicn occur In rac- Ing. sviuiuuEu no was cnagrined at his horse's defeat, Heffner laid no blame at tho door of tho boy and stated that he knew he was a goodjrlder and one who would obey orders, nndtthat to show his confidence in him he would give him an early opportunity to make good.
