Don't bend It at the elbow; or, as I

any tendency In this direction. I emphn

haps one should say It Is the rudder, for
"it steers the work of these members.

,the following simple exorcise. Ta,so

and the eyes on the ball. Without mov

them to go with the movement of tho
body, turn the body at tho hips, to tho
right, to the point to which It turned, In
"swinging back, casing the left leg and
foot. When this position has been rcath-

are about the height of tho right shoul

that this action bends the right elbow),

In this position the shaft will be point

Now turn the shoulders, letting the left

the club shaft Into correct position back

PHILLIES AND RED SOX
WELL PLAY BIG SERIES
AT FRISCO EXPOSITION
National Commission .Today
Agrees to Sanction Tour
Through West of Two

Clubs
FOUR QAMES EN ROUTE
Bv a Staff Correspondent
BRAVES' FIELD, Boston, Oct. 12. A
meeting was held today of the National
Commission with President Baker and
Manager Mcran, of the Phillies, nnd Man
ager Carrlgan, o-Boston, present, and It
was decided to allow tho Phillies and tho
Ited Sox to go to the Panamn-Pnclfic Ex
rosltion for a scries of games next month.
Several weeks ago W. E. Humphries,
chairman of tho Pannma Exposition
Sports Committee, and BUI Lange, the old
tlmo outfielder, opened negotiations witli
players on all teams who had a chanco
to win the pennnnt. The National- Com
mission heard of tho plans, held n meet
ing and decided that they would not sanc
tion tho trip, threatening with suspension
with heavy fines if Us rule was not
obeyed. Several players of the two teams
then made plans to go with other barn
storming teams regardless of the Na
tional Commission's threat.
Alexander the Great, Klllefer, Burns
and Bancroft had Informed President
Baker that they were going whether thoy
liked It or not. Manager Carrlgan found
conditions the same In tho Boston club,
so It was decided that It would be much
better to have the men go under tho per
mission of the Commission, and this
morning's meeting resulted.
The teams planned to leavo Philadel
phia October 29 and but four exhibition
games will bo played en route to San
Francisco. These games will be at
Chicago, Denver. Omaha and Salt Lake
City. After arriving at San Francisco
the teams will practice for four days and
open a seven-game series with World
Serjes conditions prevailing. Upon request
from the Mayor and many big business
men of lob Angeles tho commission will
allow the teams to play two games In
Los Angeles after the regular series
There will be but 17 men from each club
taken
A few of the regulars of each team
have buslnesb Interests whloh may do
mand their attention, while substitutes
una Tlncup, welser, Dugey, Baumgart
ner, Adams, and players of the samo
calibre on the Red Sox will be left at
borne.
The Panama.-Pacflc Exposition Sports
Committee deposited, a certified, check

Mra. nonald II. Darlow, semlnnallst and
finalist In nntlonal golf contests, was
can y orf her gomo yesterday In tho
qualifying rotind for tho women's golf
championship of the Merlon Cricket Club.
She turned In the largest card she hai
had In a tournament this season. Hut her
round wns not without :t brilliant spots.
On tho fifth sho was In the Bwamps of
the creek before the green, but It only
took her two shots to holo out her ball.
On the ninth sho wns on the edge of
tho green with her drive, but, nftcr mak
ing an appronch nearly to tho bull's eye,
sho missed tho short try for a thrco bv
rimming tho cup. Anil her fouilh ngnlii
rimmed tho cup but finally went down.
Bhe ploypd with Miss Eleanor Chandler,
who llkcwlso did not enjoy tho best of
days. 311ns Chandler has a flno wrist
stroke and plays with a fine, freo awing
through the fairway, but Xn tho greens
ho has a fatal weakness with the put
ter. On tiro 11th sho overran a 12-lncr
putt and ngnln missed coming back. As
soon as she can get a fair degrco of
accuracy In this section of her game
sho will bo unbeatable.
The prize score yesterday was 87. Hut
tho player was like Paul Towksbury, who
bad a 45 going out ono day nnd wished
he hud Btned "out." Tor tho fair golfer
that made the 87, scored It for the first
nine holes. Tho highest score for ono
hole was 1G. One player had thteo 14s
on her card and had a number of lOs
sprinkled In.

pairing, She was tho only one to put her
ball squarely and fairly on the 17th green
on the dllve. It Is 225-odd ynrdi, but
she seemed to make no unduo effort to
accomplish tho deed. Her ball was
headed to hole out, but It stopped short
and It took three putts to run down the
last three feet.
Grover'C. the Great, an ardent golfer,
had a round on Sunday with Sherwood
Mngee and Tom McNamara, open cham
pion of this city, at Boston. The hop
Alex gets on his curves Is likened by
Jnmes Hemes to a topped mashlo shot.
Alex says If he could have heaved all
the topped mashle shots nt the Ited Sox
that he uncorked against McNamara on
Sunday he would have won tho gamo
easily yesterday. Pitcher Rlxey, also an
eager golfer, Is Itching to fire a few

PENN-'S ELEVEN WORKS
HARD FOR BIG GAMES
With Navy and Pittsburgh to
Face, Coaches Speed Up
Men to Limit
The University of Pennsylvania football
team had tho hardest practice of the
season this afternoon In preparation for
the Navy game Saturday at Annapolis.
It was nil tho result of a meeting of
the board of coaches last night, nt
which It was decided that the team had
not had enough hard work to get It Into
good physical condition. Lack of con
dition Is ono of the thlnss to which tho
coaches attribute tho defeat by State.
When tho men leported this afternoon
they first had a brief preliminary drill In
auch rudiments as tackling, charging, etc.
Then tho first eleven waB sent through n
signal drill, which lasted for more than
an hour. It was followed by an old
fashioned scrimmage; botwecn the varsity
and scrub eleven. Only the cripples
were spared the necessity of taking part
In the BCilmmage.
The Quakers aro not so much afraid
of the Navy as they are of Pittsburgh,
whose team comes hero a week from
Saturday. Two members of the Pennsyl
vania coaching staff Haw the Pittsburgh
eleven wallop Navy last week. When
"they were asked by the other coaches
who were rittsourgn a Desi men mey
replied:
"The stars of the Pittsburgh team ore
11 men. Every man Is. a star, and Penn
sylvania will havo to play wonderful
football to beat them."
Howard Berry leported today, walking
without a limp. Tho coaches aro per
mitting him to take part In the signal
drills, but they will not let him get Into
a Bcrlmmnge. It Is even doubtful If he
starts In the Navy game.
The Quaker coaches have decided not
to play a practice gamo with Swarth
moro tomorrow. They would have liked
to mcei the Garnet, but the late hour
at which tho men aro able to report
would mako the trip to Swarthmore a
waste of time.

OTHER BITS OF BOXING
Kight fans hero who witnessed Joe Shu
grue In a sensational six-round bout
with Sam Robldcau about two years ago
today aro fully convinced that Joe Bhu
grue, of Jersey City. Is not the snme
fighter ho was. Although the Jerseylte
lo.ck.ed his oljf-tlmo nggresslveness nnd
punching 'ability, he' showed sufficient
form to win Over Eddie McAndrews In
tho wlndup at the Olympla last night.
However It may be, Shugrue has not
regained Jils normal form as yet follow
ing his lay-off of nlpe months because of
poor eyeslghti Then again. Joe did not
seem to be In fit form, as he carried sev
eral pounds of superfluous flesh around
his midsection. At that, the Jersey City
lad scored enough punches, both from
the dlstnnce and at close quarters, against
McAndrews to be an undisputed winner.
Shugrue weighed 138 pounds, while Mc
Andrews tipped the beam ono pound
more.
The best fight on the program resulted
botween Johnny Cnmpl, 123V4, who was an
eleventh-hour substitute against Sammy
Decker, 120H. Because of tho former's
grand-stand rally In the fifth round, after
being clearly outpointed In the second,
third nnd fourth periods, the former was
entitled to tho decision. Decker was
matched originally with Johnny Plazzl,
but he refused to box him, as Plazzl ex
ceeded Sam's weight bynlno pounds.
Frnnkle Burns, 118H, had little trouble
showing ruperlor form over Arthur
Simons, 113V&. In the semi, while In tho
other bouts Steve Latzo, 116, made a
punching bag of Joo Heffernan, 115H, and
Joe Tuber, 107, won 'from Mickey Brown,
113.

FOOTBALL'S TRUCK HORSE AND RACER

By ROBERT W MAXWELL
All-Amerlcan Guard, Former Star of SwarthmorB's Noted Teama of 1004 and 1008, Famous
Coach and Official of Nation-wide Iteputatlon.
ARTICLE III
Most football teams at tho beginning
of the Beason try to do too much In n
short space of time. The players fall
on the ball, practice
punting nnd throw
ing the forward pass;
run down u n d o r
kicks, tackle In fact
everything on the
calendar Is attempt
ed before the team -lines
up for signal
practice. Sometimes
there is time for all
of this work, but oft
e n 1 1 m o s darkness
puts nn end to the
practice and several
things are left un
done, Players havo a per
fect right to becomo
enthusiastic early In
tho fall, but thcro Is
no uso In practicing
ope thing and over
looking another that
might be Just as im
Jl. W. MAXWELL.
portant- To guard ngalnst this, some
sort of a system should be put into
effect from the start. For nn early sea-
Bon scneauie x ssi .-i...f....
Falling on tho ball, 15 minutes.
Running down under klcka and tack
ling, 20 minutes.
Backfleld men practice forwar d paw
ing while lino men practice charging
and quick starting, M minutes.
Signal practice, 25 minutes.
Scrimmage. 10 minutes.
This schedule is based on the supposi
tion that a team practices 1 hours.
If more time can be spent on the field,
rearrange tho schedule, paying more at
tention to bolstering up the glaring weak
nessts of the men. But stick to tho rudl,
mentary practice-. This Is more Impor
tant than anything else nt this time of
the year, for n team that Is poorly
coached In tho first principles of the
game will go through tho soason under
a Serious handicap. Falling on the ball,
tackling, running down under punts and
practicing tho forward pass wl I become
monotonous in a very short time, but
they must bo mastered. If a player
come, out late to avoid this work, U
would be a good plan to mako 'nlm do It
after the day'a practise Is over and the
others havo left tho fleld. If he protests
against this, drop him from tho squad,
for he lacks the. true spirit that makes
a football player and his conduct Is
likely to Influence others.
Some players always appear on, the Held
before the time set for calling practice
Put them to work at once, the backfleld
missing the ball, punting and catching
punts, and the linemen Umbering up by
falling on the balli practising quick starts
and tackling ono another. As tho Beason
advances the men naturally will fall Into
this work and It will do more than any
thing ele to Improve their play. You
cannpt practice these fundamental points
too much.
In football, the legs are used more tpan
any other part of the body. The half-
oacKS mane ub u w """ -
running, and tho line men use a powerful
leg drive when they chargo against an
opponent. Therefore, it la necessary to
develop the lega and take care of them
throughout the season.
TRUCK HORSK AND RACER
The halfbacks use an entirely different
set of muscles than the Una men. The
former must develop the speed of a sprin
ter, capable of running long distances,
while the Utter depends on abort, quick
dashes, not tnore than five yards at a
time, and must be. able to push an oppon
ent or opponent out of the tn'ay of drive
them backward In other words, the half-
oack Is the racing steed, while the line
mai; plays tho part of u truck borne.
Charging up nnd down the fleld Is the
best work for tho line men. Placo all of
tho candidates on the goal line and nt a
signal, either by clapping tho hands,
shouting 'Go," or snnpplhg the ball, all
should lunge forward and run five yards.
Tho men should como to a complete stop,
line up ngnln and go from chalk mark to
chalk mark until tho opposite goal lino Is
crossed. Then, after a short rest, return
In- the same manner. One round trip will
be sufficient for the day'a work.
In lining up, tho line men should take
the positions they assume in a regular
game. Tho position depends entirely on
the man. Allow them to take a natural
attitude and improve on it If necessary.
Don't forco a mqn to tako a position that
Is awkward to him, If It Is not nccordlng
to "form." Develop the natural abilities
of the players. It will pay In tho end.
The men should play low, bo able to
start quickly and make a powerful lunge
forward, if a man can do this. It doesn't
matter If he starts with his left or right
foot, so long as he docs It. "Form" is
nil right In Its place, but should not be
adhered to If It is not adaptable to tho
player.
BACK FIELD PRACTICE.
. For tho back fleld men, I would advise
tho same sort of practice, but Increaso
the charging distance to 20 yards. Tho
players should take a sprinter's start,
that Is, bending forward, one leg behind
the other and the tips of the fingers rest
ing on tho ground. The men must start
quickly, and a few of these 20-yard
dashes each day will Increase the speed
quicker than anything else. These two
things aro very Important and should ba
practiced every day of the football sea
son. As has been stated before, the object
of the game of football is advancing tho
ball by one Bldo whllo the other tries to
prevent It. When a player gets the ball,
there- are 11 opponents on the -field, all
possessed of tho same deslro to tackle
htm and hurl him to the ground for a
loss. The players on the runner's Bide,
however, block these men off. eivlnir the
man with tho ball more of an opportunity
to mako a run.
Tho first thing to lenrn In interfering
foi- a runner is to AVOID THE USE OF
VOUR HANDS. Keep your arms close
to your body when blocking an opponent
und many penalties for Illegal uso will
bo eliminated. Another thing to temem
'ber Is to leave your feet and dlvo at the
first man who comes noar you. Don't
try to bowl over one man and then go
after another. You probably will miss
both and see the lunncr tackled for a
loss.
Blocking with the body is the best
means to get an opponent out of the
way. This is made by stooping over and
hurling the body bo as to hit tho would
ba tackier with tho side or the hip.
Blocking with the legs also Is good, but
the new ruling this year makes It hard
to avoid committing u foul. For that
leason It Is best to forget It, although
It whs one of the best things In the
offensive nnd defensive game. Another
.method of blocking Is to use the shoulder
to meet a man who Is coming toward
you.- This la a slmplo method to get an
opponent out of the way, but not so
effective as the body block.

DETAILS UNCOMPLETED
Bv a Staff Correspondent
BOSTON, Mass., Oct. H.-That peace be-
tneen tho National and American
Leagues and the Federal League Is a
certainty la tho opinion expressed by lead
ing baseball men who are attending the
world's series games here between too
Thlllles and Red Sox.
The many meetings between the heads
of organized baseball and the Federal
League chiefs are significant, and whereas
a tew days ago the Information was given
out that the meeting waa Informal and
rcallv meant nothing, President Tener ad
mitted this morning that the first meet
ing had boon prearranged and that base
ball peace was not an Impossibility.
President Tener of the National
League, nnd President Johnson, of the
American League, still Insist, however,
that the plan- told exclusively by the
Kvenino Ledger two months ago, had
not been Adopted or agreed upon, and that
nothing definite had been done.
Tener said that tho factions had agreed
that It would be nn Impossibility to have
three teams In any town, and that the
first step If peaco were really made would
bo to do away with franchises In cities
that have thre teams at tho present time.
The Kvun'ino LEDaun stated two months
ago that this had been arranged tor, and
the franchises nf the Chicago and St.
Louis Federal teams would be transferred
to another city.
Much moro has been accomplished by
the magnntes in settling the baseball war
than they are willing to admit. It Is
likely, however, that thoy will announce
within a month that the war Is at an end.
President Tener says that the meeting
yesterday was a most satisfactory one In
every way, while Ollmore said that he
was also pleased, but refused to comment.
JOHNSON, OF COURSE, DENIES.
President Johnson, as was to be ex
pected, refused to even admit that there
had been any meetings nnd reiterated bis
declaration that peace W4a still far off
Johnson's attitude may make It necessary
for the National Leaguo to make peaco
fit st nnd then submit terms to the Amer
ican League.
"Wo have held several meetings to sea
whether ie could come to some agree
ment that will eradicate many" of the
evils of tho game nt the present time,"
said Tener today. "We met Just as any
other business rivals would meet. Wo .
have done nothing definite, aa there are
too many details which must work but
themselves for any progress to bo made.
I can truthfully say that there has .been
absolutely no definite proposals made.
"Both tho Federal League and organ
ized ball officials admit that it would be
nn Impossibility to havo three teams in
ono city and It there is going to be. .any
peace; it will not be brought about so
long as there aro Federal League teams
In Chlcugo and St. Louis and It would bo
positively out of tho question for any ono
to expect peace If tho Federal League
Invades New York. I am satisfied wjtli
what happened nt the meetings and that
la all I have to say njw." - -
Tho presence hero of Charles Weeshman,
owner of tho Chicago Federal League
Club, and Phil Hall, the majority stock
holder, when neither had made plans to
see tho sprlcs until the last minute., would
indicate that they have been asked East
to talk over giving up their Federal
League franchises In Chicago and St.
Loula to accept stock in clubs In organ
ized ball in those cities. , whllo the
franchises will be moved to other cities in
organized ball where there Is but ono
team at the present time.
MAGNATES HOBNOBBING.
All of the magnates of the Federal
League and organized ball, who .are
heic nro staying at the same note), and,
unlike previous occasions of this sort,
they are hobnobbing. One little Incident
occurred yesterday which Illustrates just
how near to an amicable settlement lha '
warring factions are at presont.
President Tener had given awaf all th
world's series tickets he had tor tha
. ,.amea here, and Johnny Evers. the cap-
! tain of the, Bravec had not been taken
tickets was President Gllmore, of toe
Feds, and he Invited Evers to attend
the game as his guest. ' "
1?,tt i,,m rfnwn th I'Amiilt nf flrlf
because he thought that It would pot N
look well to be seen In public with the
president of the hated Feds. " Garry
Herrman heard of Evers' predicament
and asked Evers to accompany Gllmore to
the gamo. They at together .during tha
gamo and had supper together last night
nt the Copley Plaza.
