Players Think They're
Lucky to Uet to inrst
in Big Series
By FRED LUDERUS
fofUln and First lla-rman of tha Champion
In the various comparisons that have
rtn made between our players and the
FtiM Sox I have noticed that a lot has
! teen said about the relative throwing
i ability of the catchers. I havo no Intcn-
p tlon of comparing Klllefer. Burns and
'Ad.ms with Caay, carriBRn nna i nomas.
but I 0 inlnK II la wurm iiiciiiiuimi,.
that this particular icaiuro oi aoiensrve
jjlay cuts little figure In a world's scries,
Tana I benevo mis year n wm cut icss
than ever.
Of course It Is essential that a club have.
. catcher who can cut the hall down to
the bases accurately and quickly, but If
tou looTc over the records of past world's
er)cs you will find that tho stolen bases
lave been few and far between, and that
the attempts to steal have been rcla
itu far less per camo than thy are
iin the playing season. The reason for
TtnU is obvious.
Wfcr In a world's series, whoro there Is so
Kit much at stake, the manager and the base
Ml runner are both backward about taking
lithe chance to steal. Tho pitching is
dS usually very good In world's series, so
Jfthat a player generally considers himself
llKl - . .- if Un I. -M n ml in flraf
tv.. ni all. Having got there, he will
Sa, think several times before he takes tho
v cnance im w,..e.
CHANCES AGAINST RUNNER.
I -,. M,un T linvn for Ravlncr I think
4 tttre will bo less attempted base stealing
ufthan usual, Is that both clubs' catchers
j have too reputation, turn juawy ou, ui
f being good peggcrs. Furthermore, tho
I pitchers wo will uso and those upon
Whom we ucu oux win iuj uu umu
'-the runners close to the bags. This
.... hat n man xrhn ntnrta to ntrnl
lis taking an unusually long chance, for
iheis not only running against the chances
let a perfect throw, but he will not have
IthsT long lead on theso pitchers that ho
Less been accustomed to get during tho

I series. But this has proved in the
xpast to be Just talk, that's all. No
'club In a world's Berics ever did run
iwlld on another; in fact, .the clubs which
:were predicted to do the most rreo run
ning were the very ones which were con
'Mrvatlve. For example, take the- series between
.the Chicago Cubs and the Athletics In
Hit Everybody was predicting that Lapp
and Thomas would not be able to check
the wild circling of the bases of tho
fCuts. "Well, you know what happened.
The first Chicago man that started down
to second was, caught so far that not
Sanother runner tried to steal that game.
IThe series went five games. The Cubs
itole three bases and the Athletics seven.
; The last tlmo the Red Sox were In the
i world's series, 1912, when they played
New York, the Giants stole a dozen bases
and Boston six. But it must be remem
bered, that this series went eight games,
'to .that the average, after all, was qulto
nn-.ll. The Red Sox then averaged three-

The team which plays us has many of

are speaker, Lewis, Gardner, Hooper,

tThomas, who replaced Helno Wagner,
Terns, Stahl nnd Nunamaker, add very
little speed to the team, if any.
This seems to Indicate to me that there
Will be fewer attemnted steals bv Boston
fthis year than In 1912, for tho veterans
mu,st have slowed down Borne in the last
three years. I will not hesitate to say,
therefore, that there will bo very little
Mealing done against us; at the same

Ireaeons for this was that the Braves

WISHES HE COULD TWIRL
By "SMOKY JOE" WOOD
Pitcher for the Doston Ked Sox.
NEW YORK, Oct 7. Tho Red Sox will
win tho 1915 world championship, I am
confident of that Why shouldn't wo win?
Most of the team aro veterans of the 1912
bas?ball battlo royal that landed tho Red
Sox nt the top of tho heap.
"Wo havo won tho pennant In the
American League. Baseball fann know
that tho American League Is a muoh more
difficult aggregation to lead than tho Na
tional League. I would glvo every
cent I havo made In baseball this year
If I could go into that game tomorrow,
were I sure I (could be In as good fqrm
and deliver tho samo service I did In
1912, when we won the championship.
"I am not out of the running by any
manner of means yet, but I'd like to be
assured that I could do as well now as
I did threo years ago.
I believe tho Red Sox have the advan
tage all around the Phillies. The one
man wo will have to look out for Is
Alexander. Our Infield and outfield Is
superior to those of Philadelphia, and I
believe our pitchers aro better than
theirs, with the possible exception of
Alexander.
Tho Boston team is in fino fettle- and
trim. Wo have no doubt at all about the
result of tho world's scries.

hero today. The weather was threaten
ing, and had it been a fine day a record
breaking crowd would havo surged into
the grounds.
A horse show and a fine card of racing
events proved an attractive card. Aero
plane flights by "Joo" , Rlchter also
featured.
Samuel P. Leeds, of Riverside, scored
impressively in the horse show events,
with his standard-bred brood mare
Single Rose. The former show mare was
shown in four classes and made a clean
sweep.
One of the keenest events on the tan
bark program was the class for roadsters,
which was for the Burlington County
championship. A, F. Bradley, of Mt
Holly, had the best performer, winning
with Grandberry, the noted stallion. Tho
Laird, the property of R. W. Wills, Mt.
Holly, annexed the honors In the stal
lion class.
Pearl Baron, teamed by II. J. John
son, of Belleville, N. J., won the 2:25
trotting event The Delta Bell, belonging
to Fred. Gerhardt of Germantown, fin
ished 4, , 3, 3. Ten trotters scored in
the 2:19 trot. Fred. Shreve, of Phila

full, but he always got them off to
gether, Uhleen took tho opening heat:
Border Scout the next trip, and the Read

HORATIUS ONCE HELD A BRIDGE;
CAN ALEXANDER HOLD RED SOX?
Baseball Dope Gives Boston the Advantage in
Series, But Sometimes One Lone Bloke Can
Muss Up the Whole Affair
By GRANTLAND RICE
The World Scries Round-Up
.No. 4, The Autopsy
Grappling with the world's series dope
is ono of tho most thankless assignments
ever forced upon a noncombatant
If you pick the winner you've merely
mado a lucky guess. If you pick the
wrong club you'ro four parts boob and
alx parts bonehead.
If you pick neither club you're a staller.
Tho best you can Bet Is a shade the worst
of It no matter what happens.
In the Summing Up
Pat Moran has no idea as to which club
will win and neither has Bill Carrlgan.
Neither' has Tris Speaker nor Grover Al
exander. But It Is at least possible to present the
dope Just as It stands, and from this
dope advance an opinion as to what
should be. Which brings us up to the
evidenceviz.:
First Back of the bat there Is not
enough advantage either way to work up
a debate.
Second. In pitching the Phillies havo
one great star and tho Bed Sox have the
better balanced staff.
Third. Tho two Infields are fairly well
matched.
Fourth. The Bed Sox havo the better
outfield by a number of degrees.
Fifth. The Bod Sox have, on an aver
age, much the harder batting array.
The Better Club
The figures, plus observation, show the
Bed Sox to be the better club the best
club In baseball.
Over the lM-game route thero could bo
only one answer. Over the Bhort world's
series route thero can be two answers
without any upset being attached to the
dope.
For always, to throw against the Bed
Sox margin In other ways, thero Is Col
onel G. C. Alexander, of St. Paul, Neb.,
and Philadelphia, Pa,
The One-Man Barricade
Horatlus held the bridge against an
army. Thero have been historical occa
sions where one lono bloke has raised the
dickens against overwhelming odds.
In this respect Aloxander might well
chant with Horatlus to this effect:
Then up spake Alexander,
A pitching bird teas he
"ha, who will stand at my right hand
And cop the kale with met
Lo, who will ttand at my right hand
Against the final test,
To gather in a single game,
While I grab off the restt"
The Alexandrian Job
Few fanatics appreciate the terrlflo as
signment that-Jias been put up to the
Philly star. , ,
It Isn't so much a matter of pitching
three games. That has been dono before

Big
on many occasions. But It Is a matter
of having the entire universe that doesn't
happen to be engaged In trench warfare
ariso and say: "It's up to Alexander to
go out and win this series alone."
No one man has ever had so much re
sponsibility tossed his way. Press and
public together have been talking noth
ing but Alexander for many weeks. No
mention ot the series has been made
without Alexander absorbing tho bulk of
conversation. This series has been put
up to Alexander far more than the 1905
series was put up to Mnthewson for
Matty had Iron Man McGlnnlty waiting
for a chance to help. And in 190G New
York, on paper as well as on the field,
had a ball club that compared favorably
In every way with the Mackmen. For
the Giants then had such stars as Donlln,
Devlin, Bresnahan, Gilbert, Dahlen, Mer
tes and others around their prime.
Different Case
But most of thoso today who believe
the Phillies will win admit the general
superiority of tho Bed Sox machine.
They are backing tho Phillies through
Alexander alone. They are looking to him
to win three games and turn the trick.
Ordinarily this would be enough to put
an eternnl Jinx on nny pitcher. The great
work expected from Wagner in 1903
against Boston put tho Big Dutchman up
in the nlr nnd crimped his effectiveness.
Tho super-star stuff expected from Cobb
in 1907 and 1903 had the same effect upon
the Georgia Ghost.
When a contender knows that every
one is expecting him to do wonder work,
when any one man is touted as the big
star of the show, he Is put under a heavy
handicap.
Alexander knows that if he falls the
chances for his side of the argument are
over. He knows that It ho loses one out
of his first threo starts the odds belong
Boston's way.
If, under theso conditions, he can still
work at normal speed ho will bo an even
greater wonder than he has already
shown himself to be.
Who Will Win?
The dope, piled up In one conglomerate
mass, favors Boston to win In a series
that will go to six or seven games.
But the dope doesn't give Boston any
easy canter. It gives tho Phillies a good,
healthy chance a much better advance
chance than the Braves had last fall.
Alexander, plus a trifle the better of the
breaks, may be enough to put the Phillies
safely through. But on complete form
Boston has the edge, although the series
is almost sure to go six games before the
issue Is decided and possibly to the full
Bevcn-games span.
This meeting should be the toughest
battle for supremacy the October festi
val has known since 1912, when Giants
and Bed Sox put In eight wild and woolly
scrimmages before the ultimata answer
was returned.

WORTHINGTON NEXT BEST
SHAWNEE-ON-DELAWABE, Pa., Oct
7. Scores ruled decidedly high In the
qualifying round of tho fall tournament
of the Shawnee Country Club hero today.
A heavy fog over night and an over
cast sky this morning rendered the
course very wet and slow, necessitating
a late start, and they did not finish until
almost 2 o'clock.
J. C. Parrish, Jr., of tho National Golf
Course, Southampton, In I., turned In
the lowest score, with an S2, and, con
sidering the conditions of the "going,"
this was decidedly good. Going out ho
took 42 strokes and coming In he did
even better with 40. E. II. Worthlngton
was second with 85. Going out he played
remarkably line golf and he reached tho
turn in 39 strokes. Coming In he was
not quite sd steady, three sixes and a
seven somewhat marring his score, and
ho took 46 strokes for the second nine.
or S3 for the 18.
B. S. Worthlngton played good, con
sistent golf, except on ono or two holes,
nnd ho reached tho turn in 44 strokes,
and duplicated the score coming In, giving
him an 88.
Alec Coles, of Shawnee, who won tho
second 16 at the recent Whltemarsh tour
nament, completed tho list of those who
did better than 90, with 43 going out
nnd 44 coming in, thereby nosing out
R. S. Worthlngton for third place.
Although, ono of the shortest on the
Shawnee course, tho Blnnleklll, on the
16th hole over the water, was tho shot
that got most of the contestants into
trouble. Several players who came to
grief hero were compelled to withdraw.
This fall tournament Is the fifth affair
of the season that has been held at
Shawnee, and this is a record for even
this on a course for ono season. Early
'in the summer the women competed and
a llttlo later the professional tourna
ment was held. Tho open meeting was
followed by the Pennsylvania champion

for the Buckwood trophy.

SHOULDERS AND WRISTS TURN
EASILY IN PERFECT GOLF SWING
t ,. j
Action is Unconscious, However, But is Important
Factor Mrs Vanderbeck Regains Farnum Cup,
Some of Plays at Country Club
By JOHN ALBERT SCOTT
If you follow tho tine ot the back
swing as It has been described, you
will find (without nny attempt on your
part to accomplish It) that as tho hands
swing backward nnd upward, and the
body turns In response to this swing, tho
shoulders, besides going down nnd up,
respectively, are rotating as well. As
tho Indicated motions continue without
the least effort to get the hands around
tho body the hands will be stopped when
they have reached a point about tho
height of tho right car, tho club -haft will
drop Into the position shown In the pho
tographs by a sharp bending down of
tho wrists, and the wrists only. This
wrist motion and it Is the wrist action
of tho golf stroke has been prepared
for all tho time you wero swinging back,
It you followed tho line Indicated, and
did not allow tho least change to take
place In the position of the hands on
tho grip of tho club. Tho left wrist was
turning over all tho tlmo (you did not
try to turn It), and was being prepared
for this quick drop Into position. It is
this drop of the wrists, without slacken
ing tho grip or giving way anywhere,
that sets tho tension for tho down stroke
It is the percussion cap which fires tho
loaded gun.
Bemcmbcr clearly that thero has been
no conscious turning over of the left
wrist In going back. It was the position
of tho left wrist In tho grip that, follow
ing the line of tho back swing, made this
action Involuntary, and hence, natural.
If you have swung tho hands straight
back, and have kept tho left elbow from
bending more than was absolutely neces
sary to take off undue strain, and have
allowed tho body to twist to tho right to
the proper degree, then, when you drop
the club Into position with the wrists. It
will just miss the back of the head, and
will finally come to rest almost touching
the back of tho neck, cIobo to the base of
the skull. It Is n good Idea. In practic
ing this movement, to let the shaft touch
the neck. In order to know that the club
Is on the right track. When swinging
freely In this manner, tho club head can
be seen out of the "corner" of tho left
eye, surely an Indication that there Is
nothing stiff about It, nor anything me
chanical, i
Now, note carefully, you have not car
ried tho hnnds around the body a single
Inch by any Independent movement of
their own. They have been simply swung
backward and upward It was the twist
ing or turning of tho body at the hips and
the rotating motion of tho shoulders that
have taken the hands to a place that al
lowed tho club shaft to bo dropped by
the wrists to Its correct position. In no
other way can the club be swung directly
to this position.
"Isn't it Indeed a lovely day?" quoth
Mrs. Vanderbeck yesterday, as sho tucked
her good Iron-bound putter back into her
bag and bowlngly took Into her arms once
more the Mary Thayer Farnum Cup. But
most of those gathered about the home
green could see nothing bright In the day,
only tho dull clouds, the bitter fog and the
riotous scores. Mrs. Vanderbeck showed
yesterday without tho shadow of a doubt
that sho Is champion woman golfer of the
country, and her win tops oft tho most
glorious season of successes that any
player has had in many a decade.
When she tweaked forth the last toppy
tuft yesterday and tucked It Into her tee
trophy toque, Mrs. Vanderbeck completed
a series of victories never duplicated.
She had only lost two matches all sea
son, and both to Mrs. Barlow, her ancient
and honorable rival.
e
The 86 she had yesterday Is to a woman
golfer what 76 Is to the masculine player
just about the best In either caso. But

Qeorge Duncan. Top of swing for
drive. Hands carried very high and
the right elbow correspondingly so.
Obviously no effort is being made to
keep the right elbow "down, In and
close to the right side."
hiding unohstruslvely In tho rough near
tho seventh hole, prepared to spend a
quiet winter there, awoke, long enough
to gather in a stray shot yesterday at
the Country Club and, as a result the hat
Is no more. The fair golfer who made
tho shot tried to nlbllo forth tho ball,
but it only rolled around In the crown.
She tried a slice, a pull, a hook, but all
she get was the moisture band, the name
of tho firm who made the hat and tha
owner's Initials. Finally sho resorted to
brute strength with her brassle and tha
ball rolled dead to the hole.
Nearly all the players had a terror for
tho seventh hole and played short Somo
were shorter than others. Some went
fully 20 feet, some even took more than
one shot to roll oft tho tee, so general
was tho desire to get Just the right
touch.
