No. 7WILLIAM William Klllefer Is rated as ono of the With Alexander the Great forms n. battery that has become more famous than Rtte Johnson-Ainsmlth combination of ?t 'A Sf WILLIAM KILLKaTOB wmed Klllefer as flrfct Catcher, neater was a comlnr star. Since Played wonderful ball until he lnlured his arm In Brooklyn. during (j,aj Wnter of 181 3-14, Klllefer jumped to the federal League, but nefl to the Phillies without nlavlne " mttsr Htanrtu s feet ID inches in EZJ1 I three games. The odds then will be well In tho Phillies' favor, but even under those conditions It will bo no cinch. For even then Chalmers, nixey, Mayer or Demarco must land a game from Fos ter, Ituth, Shore or Leonard, whero Bos ton has all tho best of It. If Alexander wins two out ot his three starts which Is Jifst about what he will do, certainly nothing less then Chalmers, etc., must win two more. Chalmers, nix ey, Mayer and Demaree must beat back n pitching staff that ovorthew Covclcskle, Dubuc, James and Dauss, backed up by Cobb, Crawford and Vcach. It can bo done, but It's quite an assign ment as assignments go. The Two Pitching Staffs Alexander stands in baseball today among pitchers wnere Mnthcwson stood 10 years ago. Tho Bed Sox will find him the hardest man to beat they have ever tackled, for they have never beforo faced n. pitcher with that puzzling side-arm mo tion or one who had such control of a low ball, tho hardest ball of them all to hit. Tho Red Pox can npplaud their lucky fortune It they beat big Alec one time out of threo starts. But, having accomplished this task, they will then have nil tho best of It with Foster, Shore, Ituth and Leonard to throw against tho rest of Moran's staff. George Chalmers Is a first-class pitcher. Thero Is good stuff In the arms of nixoy, Mayer and Demaree. Also .McQuillan. But none of theso can bo figured upon a par nith any one of the Bed Sox four nl' fine pitchers and more than ordinarily good against tho test. For at home and on the road, at tight spots along the way, no club has been ablo to break through their barbed-wlro defenses not even an attack launched by tho greatest attacking machine of tho year tho Tigers led by Cobb and Craw ford. Tho Tigers wero unable to bag a series from the Bed Sox out of the six played. They won but eight of their 22 games against tho leaders and the Tigers, with a batting average above .265 am a ma chine always rushing forward 1th ag grcsslvo speed may be used as a com plete, test Picking the Pitchers Moran has Alexander primed for threo starts. Next to Big Alex, Mayer and Demaree have done the best work, with Rlxey and Chalmers trailing a length or so back. Yet Chalmers, now In fine condition, Is rated by many as Alexander's main aide. Which doesn't mean mat Moran Isn't banking Just as heavily upon Scissors Mayer, the lank young citizen with the spiral twist. Carrlgan will have a harder time pick ing his pitchers. Shore has won 20 games and lost 7; Foster fcas won 22 games and lost 3; Leonard, after a lato start, has won 11 games and dropped 6; Ituth haa attached 16 victories against 8 defeats. These four wero the ones used with al most equal effectiveness In the more Im portant scries of the year. There Is no vast difference In their work upon a gen eral average. All four can throw t'nat baseball, which Is a leading feature. Fos ter probably has a slight shade on the bunch, with Shore rated second. But any one of the four Is well capable of giving even Alexander a close, hard bat tle. And any one of tho four will carry to battle an advantage over any other Philadelphia pitcher. But for Boston to win, one of the four must beat Alexander In ono of his threo starts. Which will develop into a pretty fair afternoon's work plus a trifle on tho side.

Klllefer was bom at Paw Paw, Mich., In 1888, and started playing professional ball with the Kalamazoo team, of tho South Michigan Leacuo, Jn 1907. In 1908 he was with Austin, of the Texas League, which club sold him to Houston In the spring of 1909. Immediately upon Joining Houston Klllefer de veloped into the best catcher In the league, and was purchased by the St. Louis Americans In the fall. After a brief trial with the Drowns, Klllefer was sent to Buffalo, of the Kastern League, now known as the International League, In the fall of 1910 he was purchased by the Phillies. In the spring of 1911 Klllefer was turned back; to Buf falo for further seasonlngT but was recalled in the fall. ' In tho spring of 1912 Dopln was In poor shape, his right leg having been broken in St. Louis In July, 1911, and Klllefer had a chance to mask regularly. Although Dooin was manager of the team and got back Into shape by the middle of the season, because he realized that the Paw Paw that time Klllefer has steadily Improved a game with the Feds. He Is a rlght- height and weighs 160 pounds. LEDGE-PHILADELPHIAt MONDAY, OCTOBER RESENTS EFFORTS TO ROB MORAN OF DUES Chance and Dooin Did Not Teach Philly Leader His Baseball Sense PRAISE FOR STALLtNGS Tho unspeakably absurd statement of two basebnll experts, ono of whom said that all the baseball Tat Moran knew he learned from Frank Chance, nnd tho other that tho Philly leader Kot his knowledge from being under tho "price less tutelage of Charley Dooin," are ridi culed in unmistakable language by Johnny pcrs. The scrappy second-sarkcr of tho llraves gives Moran the entire credit for brlnelng victory to Broad and Lehluh, and says that his knowledge or tho game Is dt'o to his own study and experience and not from cither Chance or Dooin. "The Idea of nnvbody saying that Pat Jloran learned baseball under Chance Is' so absurd thnt It should hardly bo no ticed, yet such a statement makes ono red that In Justice to Pat some ono ought to say something. When It comes down to brass tncks. the Idea of any one learn inr baseball under Chance Is foolish cnougli, but for a man of Moran's base ball brains It Is preposterous. "I was with tho Cubs when Moran wns on our catching staff. lie was then tho brnlnlost catcher on tho tenm, and what ho know about the batters, what to pitch to them nnd what not Is the sum total of whdt Chance didn't know. When we were winning pennants for the Cubs we were dolnr It In spite of Chance and not btcauso of him or his alleged knowledgo ot baseball. "I'll tell you that there were always eight men out thero who were managers. They knew Just what to do under any conceivable condition nnd they didn't fall In tho pinches either from lack of phy sical ability or from lack of baseball In sight. Hut It wasn't Chance that gave them this Insight. They were men of experience, nnd, I dare say, they would have done better without Chance, al though, of course, at times Frank did play a good game nt first base and wns useful nt tho bat before ho was Injured so often by being hit In the head by pitched balls. "But that's getting off the subject started about Pat Moran. He Is the mnn who brought this Philadelphia club to Its first pennant, nnd ho Is the mnn who should get nil tho credit. Of course you havo to have players and good ones to win, but the Phillies have had teams before -that In my opinion far surpassed tho present ono In a 'paper' comparison. But that paper stuff doesn't win. It's good, sound baseball, and for a team of mediocre ability to win It Is essential that the manager do the directing and do It correctly. That Is Just what Moran has done. He knows how to handle his players and he knows what to do on tho ball field. "I believe in giving n manager all the credit that Is due him. I don't give Chance the credit for managerial ability because I don't think ho hns any. Just look what he did In New York when he really had tho opportunity to show some thing. He fell down because he Is not the student of the game that he Is credited with being. "Take tho caso of Qeorgo Stalllngs. I think that he, and he alone, wns respon sible for our winning the pennant Inst season. I know thnt a lot of articles havo appeared In, newspapers ana other periodi cals In which I myself have been given n lot of credit for winning that pennant and the world's series. But I'll tell you now that I should not have the credit. It was Stalling:, and Stalllngs alone. ' "As for Moran getting any knowledge from Dooin well, you know that Dooin was manager of tho Phillies when they had a better pitching staff than they have now. had a harder hitting team and a better dcfcnslvo club. That Is all that need be said about that. "Moran got his knowledge of baseball by experience and Etudy. He has been a keen student of tho game ever since ho has been In It, and by constantly putting his theories to tho test he has developed a wonderful and profound knowledgo of baseball. "Personally I am dellchtcd that Pat has succeeded so well, and I think he will continue his success ngalnst tho Bed Sox In the world's series."

NEWS OF SPORTS WORLD, "BIG SIX" ELEVENS SHOW ONLY LITTLE STRENGTH AGAINST THE MINOR TEAMS Penn's Game Saturday Reveals Glaring Lack of Block ing Ability, Poor Tackling and Want of Sustained Attack Review of Results of Important Plays By EDWARD R. BTJSHNELL With tho football season less than two weeks old nil members of the "Big Blx" have been lee badly shaken up by tho "minor colleges." heretofore classified as practice opponents. Ynlo has been beaten and held scoreless. Harvard and Pennsyl vania have been scored on by straight football, and only the lucky Interception of a forward pass enabled tho Crimson to escape a 0 0 score. Princeton nnd Dartmouth have so far oscaped being scored on, but all three have played sonic uncomfortably closo grimes. The follow ing table will show what the "Big Six" have accomplished to ante nnd what haa been done to thorn: Tolnls Opp. . Team. riaycd. W. I-, Tlc-J.nwae.scoren.

Tho Southerners never before figured prom inently nnd an easy Ynlo victory was looked for. Thero Is no question but thnt Yale blunders had moro to do with the result than Virginia's superior strength. One persistent fumbler can undo all tne good of his tentnmiitcs, and when fumbles nro made In tho shadow of n tertin'a own gonl and tho ba)l cap tured by tho opposition tho result spells disaster. Captain Wilson, of Yale, has always been prone to fumble nnd his it tempt to execute one of thoso foolhardy lateral posset! on his own 15-yard mark brought about Yale's defeat. With the exception of the first few min utes of tho game, when Yale rushed the ball nearly- half the length of the field, the Kits' attack seems to havo been Im potent nnd In sharp contrast to the ginger shown in the opening game n week ago against Mnlne. With tho exception of this first march down tho field the Vir ginia eleven was always ablo to cope with Yale's attack and even Yale's com plicated lntcral forward pass game was no mystery to the Southerners. To be sure, Ynlo will recover, but a defeat "o early In tho season must be peculiarly distressing to Coach Trank Hlnkcy and his backers, who nro trying to Install n. new coaching system. Yalo men havo buined their bridges bi-hlnd them nnd nre determined to work out their revolu tionary system of football attack no mat ter how many games they lose. .Vfter Yale had been swamped 36-0 last year by Harvard there were some timid souls who thought Hlnkey should be displaced beforo further disasters were suffered, but the answer of tho Yalo authorities was to give Tllnkcy two m6re years In which to mnke good. Probably tho respective coaches could Trenton Fair--AUTO RACES WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 6 Seven Big Events 22 Cars Also ART SMITH, Famous Aviator, DARE DEVIL SCHREYER, Leaping the Gap GENERAL ADMISSION, 50 CENTS, Including- Paddock and Bleachers 'EIGHT9 18 write a book of criticisms on th Tenn-aylvanla-Franklln and Marshall game, which the Quakers won, 10-fc But to the spectators It was a thrilling fight with enough of the spectacular open football to prevent tho monotony or such farces as the Albright game. Pennsylvania de served to win. and had tho Quakers been far enough advanced In their scheme oif attack to have mado their offense of a more sustained character their rtal su-. porlorlty would havo been more pro nounced. This, however, should not de tract In tho slightest from the credit which must be given to the Lancaster collerlans for their clean, spirited play throughout, nnd particularly for tho in dividual work of Quarterback Mylln. whose playing wns tho best on the field. There were two distressing weaknesses shown by Pennsylvania, poor tackling by the entire team and weak Interference by the backs. Both nre rudimentary, faults nno tho conches wilt have to re double their efforts to correct them. Agnlnst n team of tho character of Pittsburgh they would be fatal. Through out tho game the Quakers tried to over run the man carrying the ball Instead of bringing him down with a sharp tackle. This was particularly true when Mvlln ran more than half the length of the field for tho visitors' only touchdown. Four different men were near enough to tackle him. yet not n. Quaker laid hands on him until he fell over tho line. Berry and Williams were between him and the Pennsylvania goal, yet they allowed the runner to pass between them. Berry, however, probably would have gotten him but for slipping on ,the soggy gridiron. Howard Berry Is one of the most nat ural players Pennsylvania, has ever had. but tho coaches wero bitterly disap pointed ovor his failure to Interfere for his team mates and over his poor tack ling. If ho corrects these faults and develops n fighting leadership he may be. n second Stevenson: without them he villi have trouble to beat out Bell for tho quarterback post, because Bell, while lacking Berry's brilliancy, la full of fight. The Quaker forwards played better than the backs. They were on their toes all the time, nnd on kicks Mathews, "Wray and Harris were again down tho field with tho ends. While they charged hard they did not, however, always succeed In opening holes for tho backs. It was alleged holding by Nelll that caused the Quakers to lose a touchdown when Qulga ley, on a fnko kick, made a 40-yard run for what ho thought was a touchdown., The linesman claimed that Nelll had held his opponent, but the Quakers players, whlla not publicly criticising an ofTlcIal, maintained that Nelll merely fell on his 01 poncnt and stayed there without using tho hands, as ho had a perfect right to do.
