Reds Have Three Players With Scries Experience
rpHE White Sox remain the favorites in the betting, wluili is cry strange.
The clubs appear to be evenly matched, with a slight advantage in favor
of Cincinnati because of its pitching staff. However, it is tough to select a
winner, because the least thing is likely to change the outcome of the game.
No one can figure on the well-known "breaks." and they are the things to
look out for. The Reds also have a big advantage in playing the first two
james before a rabid, wild-eyed, home audience. If they cau't win in front
of, thnt gang there is no hope.
A baseball man who should know what he is talking about spilled some
Interesting dope jesteiduj on the situation. "On the Cincinnati club," he
said, "there are onlj a few players who ever appeared in n world scries.
This is a very important feature, because the best athletes sometime fall down
when they are up against the real thing. The outfield Magce, Iloush aud
Kcale will appear for the first time in the big net, and (iroh, Kopf and Uath
are the inflelders who will receive their baptism of world scries fire. Slim
Bailee is the only pitcher who has seen service, although Hressler was a
flicmbcr of the A's in 1014 when Connie won the pennant. Ilariden caught
or New York and the Ilostou Uraves when they copped, which means that
only three plajers, Sullec, ltariden and Jake Uaubert, know what it is to
battle for the world's championship.
"The White Sox, on the other hand, are 100 per cent. Those boys have
been through at least one campaign, and Eddie Collins has been in six. Col
lins, by the way, is the greatest money player in the business. He always
plays wonderful ball in the series and sets an example for the others to
follow. Weaver is another good money player, and Itisberg and Oandll can
be depended upon to come through. Outside of third base, the Sox have it on
the Ileds, and when it comes to the rival outfields no one can deny that the
Chicago outfield, with J. Collins or Leibold, Telseh and Jackson, is better
than Ncale, Iloush and Magce or Duucan. The dope gives everything to the
White Sox, but the dope sometimes is uncertain.
it IS PITCH ISO it only CS per cent of the strength of a ball cluh,
Cificiiiiiufi niijftf even thinp) up in that department. Utter,
Ring, Itcuiher and Salle cill hare to go lome to otitpitch Cieottr,
Williams, Kerr and Jamet."
Phillies Close Home Season on Friday
TUDERL'S DAY," which was to have been observed at the Phils' park
--' yesterday afternoon, was all wet, and a postponement was ordered
until today. Ludy was all st-t to receive the new watch from the ball club
and the jeweled stickpin from President John Heydler, of the National
League, but one of those rainstorms had to horn in and spike the proceed
ings. With fine weather conditions this afternoon, the iron man of the
league will take his bow and jewelry and then perform in two games. A
double-header Is scheduled with Brooklyn, and only one war tax will be
charged.
Our Phils make their final appearance of the season here on Prlday and
then beat it to New York, where three games will be played on Saturday
and Sunday. After that the season will be over and the brave athletes will
depart for their homes.
While no official announcement has been made, it l safe to assume that
Gavvy Cravnth will manage the club next year. Gavvy finished in last place,
but that should not be held against him. The club was all shot to pieces
when he took charge and it would have taken more than a manager to pull
it out of the ruck. The pitching staff wag very weak and the flock of double
headers last month almost ruined them. But Oavvy did good work with
Meadows and George Smith and got Bradley Hogg winning a few games this
month. He has tried to build up the club for next year and deserves a chance.
FIB ALSO is very popular tcith the font, not only in Mti city out
in the othert in the league. Cravath ttill it able to step in and
pinch hit, tchich mates him a t'oluoole man. Gavvy, by the way,
probably tcill be the noije-rim champion of the A'afional League this
year. He has an even dozen to his credit and has played only one
half of the games.
Youths Developing Rapidly at Polo
NOW that polo has resumed its place in the world of sports, it is only
natural that attention must be paid to the development of young talent.
Not since 1014 have there been any matches of international importance, and
with 'the falling off of interest in international polo there was a subsequent
los o interest in the sport. Horse power, as well as man power, was needed
to help win the war. There was little time to develop pololsts. Despite this
handicap, youths have come forward with a great spurt. They are Thomas
JlltchcocS, Jr.; Rodman Wanamaker,
young Sanford.
Hitchcock right now is rated as the best of the youug stars. This joutb
(showed'such form that ho earned a, place on the Roctaway team that defeated
Mtadowbrook in the openiug round of the senior championship play at Bala
last gaturday. The default by the Couutry Club quartet automatically made
'Hitchcock n member of the championship senior team.
Two of these four juniors will be seen in the line-up of the Cooperstown

Bruner nnd Light both can slip
through openings in the line, run the
ends and off tackle. Hell is the same tpe
and furthermore is an excellent field
general and a rare catcher of punts.
During his last year at Franklin Field
he went through the entire season with
out dropping oue boot and he made some
excellent catches.
On the defense Folwell will be well
taken care of when it comes to secon
dary force. Light and Hruner will play
wide to choke up the holes off tackle
and snatch and snare the end flights.
Light is one of the best defensive men
in the country and Hruner, too, is no I
blouch.
Derr will go back to bis old post of
backing up the line the hardest and
most thankless job on the eleven. Deir
is exceptionally good on the defense.
Most of his work is done under the heap
nnd there's tnnnv an heroic deed done by
the defensive -man in this position that i i
escnpes the eyes of the spectators.
In this combination Hruner will do
the punting and most of the forward
passing. He is a fair punter aud a
good passer, but I'enn will miss the
long spirals that used to spin off tbe
foot of J. Howard Berry.

LOCALS HAVE EOGE
FOR GOLF TITLE
Fast Players for Women's
Championship at Shawnee
From Other Fields
MRS. BARLOW HAS CHANCE
Now comes the dope on some of the
competition the Philadelphia women
golfers will have in their efforts to lift
once more for this town tlic women s '
national golf title.
Mrs. Itonald Harlow, eastern cham
pion, local champion and winuer nt
Shawnee in almost all her starts there,
Is the leading star on whom the femi
nine fans place their hopes here.
She lias twice been a finalist for the
title, and this looks to be Mrs. Bar
low's year.
Mrs. Clarence Vanderbeck, former
national champion; Miss Mildred Cnv-
erly, finalist against Miss Alexa Stir
ling in the last championship; Mrs. O.
Henry Stetson. Mrs. Caleb For and
one or two other locals will start for
the Quaker City.
Ther" aKo may be a lor' of other en
tries from here, so that the Quaker
City will more or less monopolize the
starting list Monday.
On the other hand, Shawnee is just
as near New York as Philadelphia.
Metropolitan golf this season has been
on the rocks so far ns honors obtained
arc concerned, and it may he that the
women will make a desperate effort to
lift a title in the absence, of similar
success on the part of the male golfers.
Miss Marion Hollius, Gotham cham
pion, will play, and Mrs. Quentin t-
Feitner will back her up as the IcadcrH
from New York.
Miss Sterling will defend from Oaw
gia ; Mrs. Arnold Jackson, a former
titleliolder, nnd Miss Elaine Rosenthal,
Bcmifinalist last time, will be western
leaders, with Mrs. V. C. Letts, promi
nent star, to back them up.
Only the best thirty-two in the quali
fying round can play for the title, but
the Shawnee Country Club has made
provision for the defeated golfers to
conipet- during the week for little titiei
nnd cups and things all their own.
The course has been considerably im
proved and some great going is expected
when it all starts Monday. (

WHO'LL COP THE SERIES?
Chapter Two Offensive Strength
rpHE ball club strongest in attack has won, on the average, two world's
-- series out of three played.
No one would ever accuse the 'White Sox of 1000 or the Braves of 1014
of being stouter at bat than the Cubs or tho Athletics, whom they overthrew.
But for nil that they won with comparative case, taking eight of the teh
games required to round out the decision.
The Tigers of 1000 looked better at bat than the Pirates, yet the latter
predominated. So, superior batting strength yields no set-up.
. . . ,
IT IS merely that much of a margin to icorfc on, other details being
in the fifty-fifty sector. T
Tlie Sox Attack
THE White Sox through this season have launched the lustiest offensive In
either league. They have outbatted all American League rivals by a
decisive margin.
Make no important mistake on this point. The White Sox can stand up
' and annoy pitching with nny club on record.
A batting order that carries Weaver, Collins, Jackson nnd Felsch, with
(iandll, Lelbold and Schalk horning in here nnd there, is nbout as easy to
I subdue as a hydrophie tank.
This club has hit with the Mackmen in their best season. The normal
j batting average of a big league ball player is .250. Total the average of all
Involved if you have a few weeks to spare, as wo once did, and you will find
these figures approximately correct. Yet hero is a club that has tossed out
an average above .'JS0 all year, including the pitchers.
I ;,
FROM the top of the batting order on dotcn through the list tprre U '
no soft spot in sight for a rival pitcher to pick as a resting place.
h When he drops one tough customer he finds himself face to face tcith
I another, until the strain soon begins to tell.
Red Strength
milE Iteds.
in turn, are no light batting club. They have shown the most
-L powerful offensive in their league
since
With Koush, Daubert. ("iroh and others they have both power nnd speed
a well-developed attack that has broken through consistently. Their club
average has circled around .270 all season, which is no feather-lined assault.
They have also put upon display a game brand of nttack, the sort that
tears in at the main moment and beats the other entry to the rush. The two
clubs together stand as the leading representatives of the two leagues in offen
sive strength, so thcro is no "hitlcss wonder" tone to the occasion. Nothing
but good pitching will stop tho lleds. No semi-class effort will hold them
at bay.
HUT for all that they can't hit tcith the White Soi. A club that
cart Ji7 fAc Tigers tcith Cobb, Vcach, Ileilman and Flagstcad in
harness has completed a standard production of the iccll-knoicn punch.
The Balanceof Power
THE Ited attack doesn't carry the same balance shown by the White Sox,
who in this respect arc unequalcd.
They have no collection of dynamite to match Weaver, Collins, Jackson
and Felsch.

but a signal driven by a real
electric motor.
The slightest touch on the big
push button produces a sharp,
prolonged warning, blast .that
penetrates all other noises. Made
to stand up under the hardest
service. It opens the way and
prevents accidents.
Install this real warning signal
on your car to-day.
