'Absolutely." replied Connie as he waved bis polt club rnkMily. "i
Tuesday afternoon there will be a bunch of stranse faces in the line-up aud you
probably will be surprised. I hae tho-e new men on the payroll and I want to
find out immediately how the stack up ncainst fast company. Detroit aud "
Ty Cobb will be hero and the newcomers will h.-uo an opportunity to step some.
"There is no need in waiting tiutil next spring to discover the stars and

Sneni Money on "Rookies
TO MATTER what they say about Connie Mack, n e cau accuse him of
noin n niker E.-orv nr. since dismantling bis famous machine in
3014, he has been scouriug this country and Canada for plajing talent, and
U the figures were known, it's a safe bet that he has tried out more rookies than
liny other three mauagers in the business There always is a tloek of new
talent at the ball park and one year it got i. bud that truant officers used to
10 to the Shibe arena to sec if any lost children were playing on the team..
It costs money to try out players. Whether he is a star or a tramp.
the expeuse is just the same. Eirst. he must be drafted" or purchased outright
and then must be paid a salary during the experimental stage. It doesn't
matter how ii-jch these new guys are getting. If Connie bauds them only
enough for wheatcakes. the expenses will pile up. In reality, Mack is doing
a regular 'Woolworth business in ball tosscrs.
This year was a bitter disappointment to the lean leader, lie started the
season with a light heart and glowing prospects, but in a short time the
losing habit became apparent and the club fell into its old rut. Hobby Koth
was hurt and couldn't do his best. Then, after be rccoNorcd. Connie was
forced to trade him to the Red Sox. The pitchers failed to come through.
Scott Perry never was in .condition, and defeats became as numerous as
Knights Templar on the streets this week.
Theu came the auiiual slump aud cery time the As visited another city
they were hailed with joy. Etory opposing ball flub strengthened its pennant
chaucei against the Mackmen and a pleasanl time was had. Hut that stuff
began to pall ou Connie Mack and lie bit the trail, waded through the under
brush aud bought players by the dozen. He made up his mind to get a ball
club in this city und stopped at nothiug.
There are as many players on the As payroll as an average weekday
audience aud there will be more before the season ends. All of the pennant
contenders will appear. Detroit opening hero today, to be followed by
Chicago, Cleveland aud St. l.miiv. l'orhaps the pennant will be won or lost
on the local diamond, which should attract some attention from the fans.
SO 1 Of must Tinncf it to Conine. Despite numerous reverses he still
is trying, and you runt Mime a guy lor that. In act, Jf'irk,
deiertrj the glad hind lor bring a good sport.
Pcnn Players in (rood Hands
PENNStLVAMA is fortunate in having uot only an abundance of good
football material, but also an abundance of good football coaches. Most
of. the players are veterans, men who huo been drilled long aud often in the
fundamentals of the game, so that the preliminary work will eousist mostly of
letting the men into condition and t.uue will uot have to be wasted on teaching
the rudiments of the sport.
Th couditioniug of the squad is in the hands of Eawson Robertson, and
Jet it be stated right hero, that there is no man in the country, and that goes
for the city. 'too. who cau beat the former Irish-American tutor at this game.
Robertson is a keen obsener. he knows when a man should stop work and
when he should be given more. He can pick shirkers and can tell if 'a man
Is stalling or if he's really fatigued. Hobby has the say absolute in regard
to condition aud he can pull any player out of tiie practice if he wants, to.
His is the first, last and only word iu training.
Not only is Robertsou a great conditioner of men. but he also is invaluable
In speeding up the players. He teaches exery mau bow to run aud his lessons
are given both individually and in group. He will speed up the entire I'cuu
team so that even the linemen will be down under the punts arid able to catch
backfield men iu the open field. Aud sped counts for much as strength iu foot
ball. He took Bud Hopper, the AU-Amrneau cud, to one side up at tieorge
Trailer's farm yrsterday and gave him some pointers ou a quick getaway. It
will be remembered that last year Hopper was the fastest man on the Red aud
BISe eleven getting down the field under punts, and a lot of his speed he owed
to instructions from Robertson. Hopper didn t show to any great extent when the
101S season was young, but iu the later days bo began to shine. It was speed
that brought him out.
F THEY listen to his adtiee. liabby mil bote q forfc of sprinters
on the Quaker ctcten. and swb mountnim us Deiler, Tiliel and
Supplee will be as suift as the endmen.
Defense, Not Offense, FolueU's Object
"lirHEN it comes to the real football end of it several good men will do the
W instructing. Rob Folwell. of course, is the big bobs, and the record he
has made at Pennsylvania and Washington and Jefferson stamps him as one of
the best in the country. He will be ably assisted by Dr. Charles Wharton,
the best line tutor in the game ; Rig Hill HollenbacV, who is full of football
ideas and possesses the rare nbility of beiug able to teach them; Allic .Miller,
Jack Keogh and other former Red nmljilue stars.
Folwell will first build a defense for I'enu and he will have plenty of
' chance to spring new stuff at Erazier's farm and not haye it discovered. 'The
Quaker squad is iu a great biding place near Willow (Jrove, and although the
gates to the farm arc ungJarded no one comes in to see the practice because
nobody can find the gate. No football scout in the world could find that I'enn
team without a guide.
But as xve xvere saying. Folwell will first build a defense and then swing
Into the practice. He believes in the theory that if you can be scored on you
can be beaten. ihich is absolutely correct. In this he differs from Glenn
Warner, the Titt coach, who expounds the theory1 that the best offensive team
U the best defensive team. Glenn says that the team that keeps the ball
" can't be beaten, which also is absolutely correct.
The Pennsylvania system for defense is one of the best and the mo6t generally
tJ vsed pt all systems and this gives Folwell a better rhance to make a play on
the defense. Besides that many of his men are thoroughly familiar with the
Ittd and filue style and he can devote more time to instructing his men in the
art of tackllne. It's a rare football man who tackles correctly, and Hobey
JJght is one of the rareties.

BOB MARTIN IN TRAINING
Oir il has begun to gather in all the hip-hip and the hoarse huzzas
attached to both tennis and golf.
Out of the West '
TIIRItE arc just n few detnils you may not have considered in this connec
tion. We'll take up first the matter of turf tennis.
From 1SS1 to 1011 the Kast had this ancient game in its brawny grip.
It was around this date that California horned intrJ the tennis zone and since
Jhat development took place the shock has been terrific.
Out of the last seven American championships decided upon turf courts,
no less than five have gone to various Californinns. McLoughlln has two,
Johnston (wo nnd Murray one. llichard Norris 'Williams interposed on two
occasions, beating McLoughlin nnd Johnstou in turn to prevent a seven-year
sweep.
But five victories in seven starts shows a decided preponderance, for where
the 3ast has offered but one man xvho could rise to the crest, the West has
offered three, counting Lindley Murray, whose game was developed tinder
California Ekics.
m
AS THE TTesf afjo has produced the last three golf champions, the
A margin seems complete. Dave llcrron, from Pittsburgh, might
be listed on neutral soil, although Pittsburgh has been classed, in a
golfing and baseball icaj, oj iceafent territory.
The Nav fFonder
IN THE meanwhile, William Johnston has proved his greatness, not only for
this season, but for some time to come.
This young star was unknown outside of his own circle in 1014. You
never heard his name mentioned when the 1014 Davis cup matches were under
Yet n year later he was national champion. Ills record has been mirac-'
nlnus. Out. of the last three championships he has entered ho has won twice,
and has been runner-up on the other occasion.
I To rench the top in 10111 ho had to beat the game and slashing Patterson,
' winner of the Knglish championship, and then down the brilliant Tilden,
who had taken six out of seven sets from Norman Urookcs and Norris
! Williams. .
I Johnston has something more thnn n collection of wonderful tennis
! strokes. He hns rare judgment, unusual coolness under fire, and the keen,
i nc-ressive nintch-play temperament that is at its best against n rugged test.
BB
T .lf.ll be that Maurtre McLoughlin s once respicnatnt siar nas
faded into the mists. Hut in Johnston. California still has an entry
to carry forward her colors for some lime to come, for Johnston's game
is not likely to icilt or break for a number of years.
Another Year
IT ISN'T that the Kast has run out of stnr talent. With Francis Ouimct in
golf' and with Williams nnd Tilden ui tennis, to say nothing of Vincent
Itichnrds iu another year, there is still abounding class on baud to start n ucw
CIJut' while the West holds Evans. Hob Gardner. William Johnston nnd a
number of others who carry abounding class uo mere offensive will break
through.
Throwing the 16-Pound Bouquet

and directing staff of the V. S. L. T. A. deserve unlimited praise for the'
genius thev have shown in helping to make tennis a national sport-n snort
Mmt might have been hot-housed to death, but one that has now been lifted to
