HIGH SCORER IN
ALLIED LEAGUE
Putnam's Inside Left Has
Netted Ten Goals in Nine
Games Played
BEECH IN SECOND PLACE
Tommy Walsh, of Putnam, (pads the
Allied League first division In Roals
, lcorel. Tho Inalilo left of tlia league
leaders has located tho net 10 times In
hlne games. Tho veteran Dcech, of Falls,
Is second, with nine goals In as many
(tames, and three players. Kirk, of St.
Nathaniel! A. Doherty, of Viscose, and
1 D. McDcrmott, formerly of Norrlstown,
but now with Woodland, In the United
league, are tied for third place, with
eight goals each. Flynn, of Cardlngton,
tilth six goals; Wcldon, of Purlton, with
(Ire, and W Graham, of the Wander
era, with four, are others who have
proved reliable scorers.
Owing to tho fact that Peabody and
Norrlstown have disbanded nnd with
drawn from tho Allied League, It Is
rather difficult to obtain tho correct
standing-, slnco two points must be given
tach of the remaining clubs for every
game scheduled with both Xorrlstown
and Peabody William ilrcarly, secre
tary of tho Allied Association, has com
piled tho ntanulntr of tho llrst division
teams, which contnln a few changes over
the ttandlng rubllshcd early In the week.

RICE PREDICTS VETERANS
WILL BE DISPLACED SOON
Five Great Major League Hurlers Destined to
Drop out of the Spotlight Before Long
By GKANTLAND RICE
WHHN Old Doc TImo beckoni up the
highway of sport they nil follow tho
braves ami tho best with tho rest ot the
Held that has served Its term under tho
banner of tho same.
So for 1316 It will be of somo Interest to
seo Just how many drop from the ranks
or fado Into tho mists where even tho
Krentest nro soon forgotten by a llcklo
public that only remembers what you are
today not whnt you used to be. The past
counts but llttlo In a game that moves
with such swiftness, where so many
cotno nnd bo and where tho places of
those who fall are so qulcrfly taken by
others waiting; for tho chance.
The 191G Class
Horo nro at least a few of those who
may hlko onward for n year or two
lonRcr or who might alBo drop out before
1917 opens Its docket:
Xo. 1. Christy Mnthewson.
No. 2. Ilonus Wngnor.
No, 3. Napoleon Lajole.
No. 4. IMwnrd S. Plank.
No. B, Mordecal Brown.
No. 6. Kdwnrd Walsh.
No. 7. Hal Chase.
No. 8. Napoleon Iluckcr.
Five Pitchers
Five of these belong to tho greatest
contingent of pitchers brought forward
In DO years of play Mathowson, Brown,
Walsh, Ilucker and Plank. What a staff
that would have made for any club with
all ilvo In their prime,
This doesn't mean, that all five are to
go, but no ono of the live Is certain to
start nnother campaign beyond this
spring's mobilization. Mathewson Is
still doubtful In regard to his neck and
shoulder trouble, where his nerve centres
nro badly worn away. There Is a chance
that 1D1S will bo his closing campaign. All
depends on how tho old salary whip and
ndjaccnt neck muscles tl.aw out this
spring.
Walsh has been practically out of It for
two years. But last season ho was able
to win a game or two; 1916 will probably
wind up his career. Miner Brown had
a good season with tho Feds, but tho
three-tui ned marvel Is now 40 years old,
and he too, Is edging toward tho shad
ows. I-d X'lank, one of the game's great
est marvels, was atlll almost as effective
as ever, although he had passed his 40th
year. But tho Gettysburg Ouldo is closer
to tho border ut last. Nap Itucker has
had arm trouble for the last two years,
bo no ono can tell what 1916 will hand
him beforo October. Hut of tho Ilvo pitch
ing Btars mentioned, who have served an
average of moro than L: years, at least
three are doomed to hand In the old uni
form and take their places with tho birds
that used to be.
Wagner and Lajole
Tho requiem has been sounded for Hans
Wagner and Nap Lajole over since Hector
was a pie-eyed pup. When we were still
a toddling Infant we recall that the sport.
Ivo gossip of tho day was to the effect
that old Hans and old Larry were about
through.
But each year they come back and
crack tho pill on the proboscis or spear
the festive grounder with abandon and
eclat. Still they can't go on forever.
Their plncju In balldom'a sun must soon
bo taken, Hans is 41 or more. Larry is
40. They have served 20 years each on
tho skinned plots back of the grcen-turfed
Infield. They have outlasted the aver
ago player by nearly a dozen seasons.
Both big and powerful, they have stood
the strain of the game where smaller
frames would have curled up. And
through most of this period not even Doo
Time could blur tho brightness of their
batting eyes. They mny go through 1916
and hold their places without a slip. But
to go on beyond Into another campaign
Is hardly probable. Although, so fnr ns
the Flying Dutchman Is concerned, wo
refuse to predict his finish until a full
month has elapsed after he has turned In
his uniform and nulled his old glovo to
the cabin wall.
As for Hal Chase, ono of the greatest
of all first basemen. Hnl seems to be
pointed toward the minor '. rdcr. Hal,
through his excessive flopping from spot
to spot and league to league. Isn't tho
most popular bloko In tho gume with tho
controlling powers. Most of them would
bo much obliged to observo Hal drop out
for good, so another star Is fairly sure
to fado this summer.
Willard vs. Moran
If Mr. Wlllord and Mr. Moran find It
strictly Incumbent upon themselves to
battle 10 rounds In New York for the
paltry purso of 00,000 bones, at least ono
arrangement Is necessary.
Mr. WUIard Isn't the fastest, most alert
athleta In tho world. Mr. Moran Is oven
more so ns a stoical beglnnor. By tho
end of 10 rounds the two would be Just In
the act of developing n faint perspiration.
It would take them at least 10 rounds to
get up steam. So wo suggest that In case
they meet, beforo entering tho ring they
battlo together 10 or 15 stanzas In somo
cellar or other quiet abode, and, having
put on a sufficient amount of Impetus, the
concluding 10 rounds could then be fin
ished before the quivering spectators
nround the ring.
Ever since wo saw Mr. Wlllnrd and
Mr. Morris lumber nnd flounder through

from old Cretan vases, society's children
practice the graceful pose and measure or
caper lightly in the spontaneous buoyancy
of the "Dance of Joy." Society mothers
say thai' the present-day dance-steps do
not make children graceful, hence the
vogue of the Greek dance. May Bosman
has written an article on the subject for
Sunday's Public Ledger, illustrated with
pictures of beautiful young America in
graceful poses, together with reproduc

show how closely modern maidens repro
