, ' And two lnfieldcrs and nn outfielder In order to complete hli roster, piovldod, of
, course, the trio insist on sticking to their lcspectlve homesteads. Incidentally
It may be mentioned that Moran has reconciled himself to tho situation and Is
going ahead Just as though Slock. Nlehoff and Whlttcd wero not In tho l.md of
the living. Every one who understands anything nt all about baseball realize
that the leader of tho Phillies is facing the most serious problem with which ho
haa had to wrestle since taking charge of President Maker's aggregation, and If
he succeeds In getting nway with It ho can bo safely dubbed a "Mlraclo Manager."
Pat Is facing tho same problem Dooln met In 1011, when tho Federal League
deflected Knabe, Doolan and Seaton. nrul Charlie found the turk a bit too stupen
dous, with tho result that ho was deposed tho following fall. Perhaps Moran
Wilt get away with It and put u ball team on the Held that will bo a credit to
U Philadelphia, but If the three men continue to hold out It Is hardly likely that
the Phils will prove much of a menace to the (Hants this season.
There Is another striking similarity between tho situation facing Mtirnn now
and the one at tho same tlmo In 1914. Uooln .needed two Inflelders to replace
Doolan and Knabe, who had Jumped to the 1'edcrals, Just as Moran needs two
workers to replaco Stock and Nlehoff. Dooln had In camp a youngster who
looked like n, world-beater In Murphy, whom all the critics picked to (111 tho shoes
cf Mike Doolan, Just ns Moran has In camp a joungstcr known as McClalllgan,
Who Is touted to mako tho fans forget Nlehoff.
TWTURPHY proved a disappointment. Ho was Just ns weak In tho North
' as ho was strong In the Soutlf.' Ho totally falled.to meet tho require
ments of a big leaguer, and after holding on to him for a month or two of
real campaigning, Dooln shipped him to tho minors, whero ho has been
ever since.
n
. - - Moron's Outfield Still a Problem
ALTHOUGH Moron's most serious problem Is In tho Infield (we nio still usMim
Llng that Stock, Nlehoff and Whlttcd continue to hold out), Moran must do
onto big league thinking about tho other works. Tho habitual optimists point
to the fact that Pat has l'askcrt, Cravath and Cooper, a, trio good enough for
any old ball team. But AKT3 they good enough? Tor two jears Cravath has
been slowing down, and nobody knows It better than Cravath himself. Tho
lugger tried to rig up a uontiact calling for his services as n pinch woiker alone,
at the same time calling President H.ikcr'n attention to tho fuel that covering
right flold regularly was something of n hardship for him. This hmdly hoems
the action of a ball player whd feels nolo, to glvo tho club tho sort of service
It has a,- right to expect. Cravath Is tho typo of man who does not wMi to
take a cent that ho does not enrn. Ho felt that ho was nblo to glvo the club tho
worth of Its money as a pinch hitter, but it Is obvious that ho realized his Inability
to play regularly In a way credltablo to himself, his club and his teammates.
Therefore ho tried to sell his services to tho club ns a pinch hitter a roln In
Which ho Is worth a heap of regular money.
Cooper may show tho sort of stuff everybody expects-him to show, but thoio
Is tho possibility that ho may provo a disappointment. Ho was a constcnJ per
former In the Federal League, but so wore a number of others who nr& now
performing In tho sticks. Had Whlttcd reported, It was Moran'K Intention
to play Cooper In right field and keep Ciavnth on tho bench? It was n gamblo
the sort of gamblo every manager has to take once In a while. With Whlttcd
till sunning himself around Durham, N. C, how over. Pat must take two gambles.
He must use Cooper as first planned and, In addition, tako a chance on tho veteran
Cravath.
THE outfield was one department that Dooin did not havo to wony
about In tho spring of 1913. Tho sorrel thrush had Cravath, who was
then traveling at top speed: Dodo Paskeit, Shcrwuod Magco, Peals Becker
and Josh Dovore. Need more bo said?
Pitching Staff Looking Quite Well
MORAN has llttlo need to worry about hla pitching stalf so long as It Includes
Alexander, Rtxey, Mayer, Lavender nnd Oescbgcr. At u matter of fact, It Is
not altogether necessary to nhmo tho last three, as no staff could bo wc.ik wlili b
Includes tho two former pitchers. Nevertheless, Pat Is nnxlous to ndd one or
two more first-class yobng twlrlers to his staff. According to tho reports drifting
In from the Southland, Fortuno and Flttery mo showing enough to warrant their
being given a thorough tryout. Tho latter. In particular, Is showing home good
tuff and this, considered with his wondciful minor leaguo record, lecominoiids
him for serious consideration.
If anything, Moran's pitching staff bhould bo stronger this season thait it
Was last. Al Demareo Is the only hutler taken away, and In his placo comes
Lavender, who should win an many games as tho well-known cartoonist did
last, season. Alexander la said to bo In unusually flno shapo for so eaily In tho
season and should havo another ono of his wonderful years. HKo.v'.s work
hould surpass anything ho has over dono in tho past, and Joo Ocschger l about.
ready to be a big help to tho Moron family. 1'rsklno Mayer, who w.is almost
valueless last season, Is going back this year with a determination to dupllcato
his performance of 1915, when ho was Alexander's lieutenant In that well-known
act, "Pitching tho Phils Into a Pennant."

Electric Clocks for Prize Fights
THERE Is always room for a good refotm In tho world of sport, and thcicforo
It would not be a bad move for somo of our progrqsslvo American light clubs
to adopt electric clocks such ns nro used with great success In Auhtrulla, An
automatic timing apparatus would silence forever tho cries of "long count," "short
count" nnd tho charges that somo timers shorten rounds or lengthen them for
the benefit of their favorites. In tho big ring In Sydney there's n clock that
never cheats, that gives every flglitor a square deal. It Is workod by electricity,
hangs over the ring, has two faces so that all can seo and it nover makes an
error. When the round starts tho clock starts. At tho end of threo minutes to
the very second the alar.m sounds. Tho round Is over. When there Is a knock
down the referee at onco pushes a button., Tho clock begins to toll off tho soconds.
It stops' at ten It cannot stop sooner. If the man is on his feet when tho
going stops he Is saved; If not, ho Is a knockout victim. Tho clock was Invented
In Sydney, manufactured at a cost of $1250, and Is the only ono of Its kind In
the world. But there Bhould be others, In New, York especially, whero the
charge Is so often made that referees nnd timers glvo "raw" deals to certain
lighters.
Just a short whllo back one pug slammed a rival to tho mat In New York
d he was counted out. He at onco let out a howl of "short count," his seconds
Ctddlng their voices to his, claiming that not moro than eight seconds had elapsed.
,ii fiw weeks later Pug No. 1 knocked Pug No. 2 to th9 canvas. Tno refereo was
Clow In beginning his count and slower in doing the counting. At nine, Pug No.
X arose to his feet after being on tho floor for at least sixteen seconds, accord
ing to some watches.

Matty. hU flrs-t sK seasons, won 1IS9

In his first two seasons, however, Matty
w.-i3 working with a tail-end team In a
state of almost complelo dilapidation,, whero
no one but n hero could win
After Mi Pi raw took chargn Matty did
much better work Ills record for the first

GIANTS GET THEIR BAKER;
HOWARD, NOT J. FRANKLIN
MAULIN, Tcx March 20. Howard Ba
ker, the- third baseman who refused to re
port to tho Giants last f-prlng and later
signed with tho Bridgeport Club, has te
potted at tho training camp bete. Baker
recently was awarded to tho New York
Club by tho National Commission. Ho was
becured originally from Little Hock In tho
fall of 191j.
It was reported that Baker had been
released to New Orleans, but Secretary Fos
ter said that whllo tho Crescent City club
Is after tho player ho has not na yet been
released. It Is thought that waivers will
bo asked on him this week.
THEY do say that It takes two to maKO
a fight; ono willing boxer never will do.
And It was proved correct at tho Olympla
Club last night, when featherweight cham
pion Johnny Kllbane,-Instend of being fifty
per cent of tho final fracas against Eddlo
Shannon, of Krlsco, ically had to bo sev-enty-flvo
per cent, moro or less, to mako tho
conlent' worth while. Kllbano won; ho
fought harder than ho ever did In any of
hla Philadelphia engagements, yet Shan
non's almost continual holding marred tho
bout.
But Shannon was In there to stay tho
limit ami ho deserves a lot of credit for
succeeding. This goes cen ono better for
young Mr. Shannon when It Is taken Into
consideration that Kllhane scored a vicious
knockdown In tho third round nnd there
after was unable to locate n uInerablo
t-pot, The punch that tent Shannon nlmost
spinning on his head was a straight right
hander to the Jaw. Kddle was backing up
nt the time and the wallop did not connect
with Its full force.
Eddie BrinRS Self To
As Shannon flopped to the floor ho almost
completed a somerrault, his forehead nnd
feet touching tho mot. A second or two
nfter Befeteo O'Brien started to count tho
Callfomlan pulled himself together, dizzily,
on his left knee. Then Shannon showed
what it was to keep his head. Instead of
leaping to his feet, Kddlo remained on his
left Knee, shaking his head In Jerks from
sldo to sldo In an effort to gather his scat
tered senses. Not only that, but Shannon
albo punched himself with both gloves
lightly on tho chin, about six blows to the
Fccoud, to clear his head. And 1'ddle mado
110 effort to gain his balance until after ho
heard O'Brien shout "Nine" In his car.
Kllbano stood by ns Shannon took tho
full count allowed him. As LMdlo stood up,
backing ngnlust the ropes, tho champion
tore Into his man. But Shannon Is a great
ring genet al, and It wnsn't to be taken for
granted, either; he proved It. Instead of
hhootlng out punches. Shannon covered up
well, nnd when Kllbano got In closo Shan
non fill Into a clinch. In hN lleico effort to
tloor 1'ddlc again J, Patrick half wrestled
Shannon to tho lloo:'. Then tho bell rang.
Kilbane the Aggressor
When the opcnlmj gong colluded It wan
evident that Shannon was In the Miuarcd
circle to bo thero hcn "Splckct" I'urcell
(hopped hla hammer on tho bell at the
roiicliMou of eighteen minutes of action. As
somo ono with leather lungs in tho "two
bit" rectlon shouted, "Oa'on Kllbane, you're
getting tho money; show homcthln'"; It
WAS up to tho champion to show some
thing. With the exception of only a few left leads
tow aid tho flnUh of tho fray Shannon was
satisfied to plav tho part of defender. Ho
waited for Kllbano to come to him. Kll
bano cl III. nnd hon at closo quatters Johnny
found himself locked safely. TIip titled
Irishman tiled his best to loosen his arms,
but tho other IrlMicr held on Uko gilm
death, and tho ctowd gu.ved Kllbano for
his anloiisnes'.
Opening Unexpected
Tho knockdown scored by Kllbane this
right-hander being tho only clean hard
wallop of the bout really came as a sur
pilsc, as Shannon was keeping himself well
out of Kllbaue's reach. Johnny watched
for a right-hand opening, then shifted as
If ho were about to hook his left, and
finally toto In with a straight right-hand
punch from tho Hlioulder, ns Shannon be
gnn to back up. The blow popped oft
Kddle's chin as the latter threw both arms
around tho champion, but tho punch, al
though robbed of a great deal oi its power,
found Its mark, and Shannon went ker
plunk to the mat.
The great attendance, although not as
big. as the week before, waa up on Its feet
with the falling of Shannon. But Shannon
was not In tho rosin to stay. He was
cheered hiitilj as ho began shaking his
head and punching himself on tho chin, and
tho crowd ttlll was with him when he got
up to resume hostilities.
Rood Story Spoiled
A petfectly good and Interesting story
went to smash after Shannon had gone
along tho first two rounds. Johnny Kllbano
is a gteat homo man. IIo thinks' moro of
his wiflo and two kiddles than of Ids pugl
llstle lauiels and money-accumulating abil
