RED SOX CATCHING DEPARTMENT COMPARED WITH PHILS' WORLD'S SERIES AFFAI
i " ' ' "" " ' "
10
tKILLEFER IS OUT OF SERIES
RED SOX ARE BIG FAVORITES
However, With Burns Going at Present Clip, Moran's
Catching Department Will Be Strong Rumors
W Persist of Killefer's Unfitness.
The persistent rumors that Killcrer, star catcher of the rhlllies. vrltl not
fc able to so Into & single same In the world's scries probably will send tho lied
efes into the clash a strong favorite. Nothing definite can bo learned from tho
Jtrtlly camp, although Mannger Moran states that he expects Killefer's arm to
recever Ita strength In tlmo for him to go behind the bat In tho opening game.
Despite the optimistic view expressed by Moran In regard to Killefer's con
tln, Phllly players have about given up hope of having the wonderful catcher
In the gamo at any time during tho Bcrles, except possibly as a pinch hitter.
t Thtlly openly admitted that ho doubted If Klllcfcr would be able to play,
while others are not qulto so confident aa they were a week ago.
Fear Grows of Permanent Injury to KHlcfer
Still another player declares that It would bo foolhardy to allow Killefer to
etch In tho series. Ho says that Klltefer might go behind the bat and bo at
Ms best, but there la also the samo chanco that he would think his arm was
strong and And othenrtso after starting and Injure himself permanently.
Strained arms are treacherous. A man will feel strong ono day and not
realize tho effects of hard throwing or pitching, but tho very next day ho finds
htawelf unable to lift his arm. Tho throwing arm Is tho ball player's monoy
earner. Without a good arm a man Is soon out of the major leagues, and It Is a
question whether or not the winning of tho world's series means as much to tho
Phillies as a chance taken with ono of tho finest throwing arms In tho National
League.
a e
It May Be n Matter of Two Planned Surprises
If Killefer were to go behind tho bat for the first gamo of tho series and
throw hlo arm away It would bo a calamity. Tho Phillies would bo no better off
than they aro now, and a wonderful backstop would bo ruined forover. Manager
Moran doubtless Is weighing these matters carefully, and If Killefer starts In the
erics. It Is safo to say that tho Red Sox will find him In perfect condition.
Perhaps Manager Carrlgan plans to spring .Toe Wood, In perfect condition,
en tho Phillies for tho psychological effect it will have on Moran's men, nnd there
Is also that chanco that Pat Moran Is planning o do the same thing with
Killefer. Certainly tho effect of tho Phllly pleco of strategy, If It Is really such,
would bo greater than that of Carrlgan, as Killefer is In the gamo every day
and his presenco has a magic effect on tho National League champions, whllo
Wood can pitch only two games at tho most. Ho Is not as strong as ho used to be.
Burns at His Present Pace Should Fill tho Gap
The absence of Killefer from the gamo would handicap tho Phillies, but It
would not be nearly so -great a hardship as some are prono to believe. It would
aurt tho Phillies In reserve strength; but with Burns performing as ho did In
the last month of the season, no backstop could Improve upon his work.
Burns must keep going at that clip, and thero Is every reason to bellovo that
ho will. Tho confidence of tho team might bo Impaired a trlflo, but It will In
crease ten-fold If Burns gets off to a good start. Apparently tho only thing that
is likely to prevent Burns from getting off well Is stage-fright, and thoso who
'know the chunky little Callfornlan are of the opinion that thoro aro few players
with more nerve at a critical time than Burns possesses.
Who Will Be "Dark Horse" of the Race?
There has been a "dark horse" In every world's series, and whllo several
have been more prominently mentioned for the honor this season, It may be
Burns who is destined to enter the world's series "hall of fame." Burns com
pares favorably with any other National League backstop on what he has shown
since being at work regularly. He has an excellent head. Is a harder hitter than
Killefer, and playing against a team that has never been much for base stealing,
he.should easily fill the bills.
The only hardship that the absence of Killefer would work on the Phillies,
If he does not round Into form, would bo In tho effect on the pitchers. For some
reason the Phllly pitchers have an unusual amount of confidence when Killefer
Is behind the bat, and the work of Mayer and Rlxey especially suffers without
their regular receiver.
Burns Able to Handle Alexander and Chalmers Effectively '
Ah both Alexander and Chalmers find pitching to Burns Just as easy, as to
Killefer (and they are likely to be the Phllly mainstays In the series), Burns
should have no trouble In handling the hurlers. This is particularly true In
Chalmers' case, as Burns has handled Chalmers' delivery Just as often as Killefer,
even before the latter was Injured.
Cady, of Boston, Strong of Defense, Weak on Offense
If the reports from the Red Box camp are true that Cady will do all of tho
eatchlng In the coming series, there Is causo for much Joy among the local
fans, particularly for the games In this city, as the giant Boston receiver Is not
nearly so strong as Thomas with the bat. The latter is a left-handed hitter and
a dangerous man at all times. Cady hits fairly well, but he is not up to Thomas
by a large margin.
Here's Hoping Carrlgan Himself Catches
Manager Carrlgan evidently believes that his offense Is strong enough and
wishes to tighten the defense, Cady being an exceptionally strong receiver and
a fairly accurate thrower. This procedure pleases the Phillies, as the Red Sox
defense la not worrying them so much as the offense, as batting Invariably plays
the more important part.
Should Carrlgan switch at the last minute and go behind the plate, tho
Phillies would be even more pleased; but the strain of managing the team In
such a series Is likely to be enough for the Red Sox leader without burdening
himself further.
Killefer might be in the game. If he is, all the worry about the ability of
the Phillies to hold their own against the Red Sox In this department will bo
swept aside. But the fans should not bank too strongly on their hopes.
When An Outfielder's Throwing Arm Really Counts
In comparing the outfields of tho Phillies and Red Sox almost every critic
In the land has token particular pains to point out the weakness of Cravath as
a thrower. Just what constitutes a good thrower has always been more or less
a matter of personal opinion.
Some players are able to throw the ball a great distance and draw frequent
applause by making needless long and accurate throws after catching the ball
en the third out with nothing In particular at stake.
A large majority of these throwers, like Clarence Walker, of St, Louis, and
Lewis, of the Red Sox, have been placed at the head of the list of throwing out
fielders, but the records show that both of these men make more wild throws
than any other outgardners In the American League.
Cravath Has More Assists Than Any of Red Sox Trio
No unbiased critic would declare that Cravath can throw a ball as far or
as fast as any of the Red Sox trio, but the fact remains that Cravath has had
mere assists than any of the Red Sox trio over a stretch of two seasons.
Perhaps American. Leaguers fear to take chances on balls hit to tho Red
sfox outfield, or maybe the National Leaguers are always running because they
think Cravath has a poor arm, but that does not alter the fact that Cravath
throws by far better than he has been credited with.
Some players can throw a ball far and fast, but must wlndup to do It,
while Cravath gets a ball away from him as fast as any, and he will probably
fool the dopesters If the Red Sox try to take liberties on balls hit to him In the
scaalne; series.
Promises to Be Rich Series Financially
There has been a lot of talk about the prospects of a new attendance
Mark being set during the coming series, but there is no chance for that.
Wlllmr the Philadelphia Ball Park and Braves' Field to their limit for each
would still place the attendance
of 1912.
Financially this will be an excellent

though Mrs. Barlow, a few holes behind,
pressed her closely for tho lead, she was
never In danger of being headed. Her
golf throughout was of the soundest or

never hopelessly bo, however, and steadi

more than offset her slight weakness.

MERCERS MAY COMPETE IN
MOTOR RACE FOR ASTOR CUP
Postponement Gave Drivers Chance to Tune Up Trenton
Speed Cars United States Makers Grab British
Field, Says Export Manager. t
Eddie Pullen and drover Kuckstell, who
withdrew their Mercer cars from the
Astor Cup Itace last week, may be able
to get their cars Into proper shape for
the postponed meet next Saturday at tho
Sheepshead Bay Speedway. Work Is be
ing rushed with all possible speed In an
effort to remedy the lubrication troubles
which drove tho drivers to distraction
during the elimination trials last week.
It Is an open secret at the track that
lubrication has been one of the greatest
difficulties confronting tho drivers. The
track Is two miles In circumference, and
one-half of this distance Is over steeply
banked turns. In order to negotiate the
turns tho cars lean at an angle which
precludes the possibility of proper lubri
cation. The oil, Instead of being dis
tributed evenly to all the cylinders,
slashes over to one side, flooding one part
and missing the other entirely. This re
suits In burned bearings and frozen
pistons.
It was announced that Italph Be Falma
would surely start next Saturday. The
little tangle that arose between the offi
cials of the Trenton raco and the Speed
way promoter was straightened out.
The steamer which Is carrying Italph
Mulford's Peugeot to this country Is two
days late, but word was received by wire
less that It would be on hand In time to
allow him to qualify In the supplement
ary trials.
That America will soon own bodily the
entire automobile trade of Great Britain
and such parts of Continental Europe as
are open to commerce Is the confident
declaration of Ernest A. Do Lorenzl, of
the Maxwell Motor Company, of London
England, who has been for several days
In conference with American officials of
tha parent company.
"European factories are producing vir
tually no passenger carrying cars at all
for private consumption," says Mr. De
Lorenzl. "Most ot them are working
solely on Government contracts, building
cars adapted for war purposes with va
rious types of body Some ot them are
changing their entire plants over to the
production of aeroplanes. Touring cars
of British make are produced pnly in
such a limited way as to create no Im
pression whatever on the market,

with thrco third basemen and no second Backer,

In tho South Moran developed NIehoff Into a
second baseman and used htm in that position all
year. NIehoff was rather slow In getting started,
but after tho second western trip developed rapidly
and now works with Bancroft In a wonderful
manner.
NIehoff was born at Denver, Col., In 1889 and
played his first professional ball In tho WlsconBln
Illlnols League In 1911, but quit after a few weeks
and returned home. Ho Joined the Indianapolis
team of tho American Association In tho fall of
tho samo year, but was released to Louisville at
tho waiver price.
Nlehoffs work at third baso for Louisville
caused Cincinnati to pay a large sum for his re
lease. NIehoff and Manager Herzog did not get

CHANCE TO PURCHASE
SERIES PASSPORTS
Staff of 20 Men Has Been Busy
for Several Weeks Filing
Applications for Big
Games
SYSTEM IS PRACTICAL
BOSTON, Mass., Oct. 6.-It would be
hard to beat the process whereby appli
cants for world series tickets for the
Philadelphia club and the Red Sox at
Braves Field are being handled. A staff
of 20 men havo been busy for several
weeks, long before the Red Box had won
tho pennant, filing tho applications of
nearly 60,000 followers of tho national
gamo, anxlous4to see the all-Important
contests.
Tho plan. It Is believed, cannot ire
beaten, and President Lannln, of the
Boston club, has seen every application
and passed upon It. This method has
necessitated his being up nearly every
night for tho past week.
Secretary Riley and tho staff take the
names, transfer them to cards which are
filed away, and If any one in authority
wants to know "who has this or that
seat it will bo an easy matter to find out
As yet the distribution of tickets has
not been made and will not be until to
morrow. President Lannln, after seeing that
evrythlng is ln running order, will leave
for Philadelphia tomorrow noon. The
method used In this city Is as follows:
Applicants for box seats must purchase
tickets for three games ln this city by
paying $15. Applicants for reserved seats
at t3 each, must pay $9, as all reserved
Beats are sold in blocks of three. The
2 seats are sold for 6. But should the
series be decided before three games are
played the money for the extra tickets
Is refunded.
This plan was Inaugurated under Robert
B. McRoy when ho was treasurer of tho
Red Sox ln 1912 and was followed out by
the Braves last year. It Is considered tho
best way, and, while many have been
unfortunate In not having been favored
In past years. It Is believed that the big
stand at Braves Field, which can accom
modate nearly 18,000, will care for all.
The 10,000 seats for 31 behind third base
will go on sale the morning of each game,
and there will be a rush. Tho 60-cent
rush seats In centre field will also be
sold the morning of the contests.
When applicants for reserve seats have
been acted upon favorably a card notify
ing them that they havo been awarded
seats Is mailed to them. These must
go for the tickets to Fenway Park and
the ticket seller has the tickets. No checks
are handled. It Is money only.
