'Championship in the National League This Year Gives
I Giants Leader Seven Pennants te Six Wen by
r Lecal American League Manager
lly ROBERT V. MAXWELL
Sports Kdlter Errnlnir rubtlc Lcdtrr
milE Brent managerial battle of the major leagues, the battle which has
1 been waged for nineteen long bitter rears, is ever and there new 1b a
winner nnd a loser. Twe big league pilots, one In the National and the ether
In the American at last have discovered which Is which, te say nothing of who
la who The stuff is off, the act Is all wnshed up and the cards shuffled for
Jawn Jay McGraw. Idel of New Yerk, has outpeinted Cornelius Mack,
of this city, in a pennant bout. The score is 7 te C, which can be verified by
the grandoldepe, which is a way of ing Aggers. Johnny and ( onnle have
been at It since 1002, which Is long enough. Jawn has ceppc the gonfalon
this year and we urc saying this before the season Is ever. e ligure that the
Giants can't lese because they finl-h the season with n deublehcader with the
Phils. In the meantime the A'a are winning backward, which deesn t count.
The history of the struggle nnd one must drag in historical data when
writing of Athletic triumphs dotes back te 1002 when C ennie piloted M "
of youthful gladiators te an American League pennant. This gave him the
Jump en his rival ninety miles away, but McGraw evened the score in ll04.
Then both wen in 1905, still racing neck nnd neck.
Cennie came back with new Hags In 1010 and 1011 nnd made It six
rtralght by copping in 1013 and 1014. After that we will ring down the
curtain The Athletics played in the American League, but when the season
closed, thev couldn't be found unless the seven ether clubs were brushed away
Cennie .vent from the sublime te the ridiculous, east his anchor in the cc Uar
and remained there. Seven straight years of reverse Kngllsh was his dish.
And he hasn't put in a new order jet.
McGraw had his team up there battling awav. yenr after year lie wen in
1911 1012 and 1013, three in a row. He came bnek ngaln in l.Ui, ctning
the count nnd this year the deadlock is busted wide open. Johnny hns wen
and Cennie missed it by seven place-. Toe mnny stymies ruined our A s
chances for the flag.
The Giants this year have up-ct the
i . i ....,.,'. ..inneru .11,1 ,! i
New Yerk alwax wen the pennant if the club wa -e far In front en September
1 that nobody could catch them. When the race became close, the club
cracked and foezled.
THIS is true even in the World Scries. .Vew Yerk hain't icon the
fall classic 'irr 1905 and they had four cracks at it. Perhaps if
will be different this year, but you never can tell.
Cennie and Johnny Have Different Systems
COItAW nnd Mnck have different systems In building a ball club. Cennie

te develop and k-ep plugging along regardless the standing of the club.
This might be a geed sMem and then aSain it might net. Seven years, in the
cellar isn't a strong argument.
Juwu Jnv. en the ether hand, is nn impatient person. He can t wait te
fiee a youngster b!oem into n star. If he has the goods and shows it en the
first day ns was the .-ase with FrWch. the kid is allowed te keep his uniform
nnd call for his valnrv cheek twice a month. If he just shows premise, he is
farmed nut and allowed te bloom un'een In the bushes. He did this witti
Geerge Kelly nnd new leek at him!
' But MrGrnw's long suit is stepping into the open market with a bundle et
kale in each hand and outbidding all ethers for star players. Ne price is tee
high when he wants a certain athlete. He went us high as S.2..0.000 for
Hornsby. nimest n- tnurh for Heinle Greh and almost landed them. Toe
much publicity, however, ruined the deal.
He purchased Havy Bancroft from the rhillies because he needed a young
nhortstep Then he threw some money into Bosten and left with Arthur Nelif.
He also purchased .. Barnes. Fred Teney. Phil PetiSlas and Snyder, the
catcher came from St. Leuis en a trade. When the going became rough this
Bummer McGraw expressed u desire for Uawlings and Meusel and later ex
pressed some dough nnd n tieck of plajers te Philadelphia. He get the second
baseman und outfielder, strengthened his club and then started out te w:n
the pennant.
The big test cume in the Pittsburgh series last month when the I irates
lest five in a row and their lead was cut down from seven and one-half te two
and one-half. This series broke the spirit of Pittsburgh and the plajers were
geed second placer- fre'ii that time nn The Giants actually came through iu
a pinch, bntt'ed their liends off. showed light and couldn't help winning.
It often has been -aid that money ta'.k- nnd this proves it. The con
versational powers of the coin of the realm made a bull club for McGraw and
although it con be claimed that he bought it. mere power te him. Any
manager who is willing te ri-k the bankroll nnd take a chance, de-erves -uee"-.
McGraw plujed for high -takes and has been rewarded.
THE McCrnw system has triumphed ever the Mackian tdca. Other
wise .aim iceuldn't hai-f iron hit seventh pennant. Sew Yerk
gets the applause. Philadelphia yets the laugh.
etv Is the Time te Loek at Figgers
FROM the standpoint of mathematics, the champlen-hli hate net been
clinched by either the Giants or the Ynnkees. I'ltt-burgh and Cleveland
hnve still a chance te win the flag, but it is such a remote one in the case
of the Pirates and almost the same for the Indians that even the me-t optimis
tic rooter is inclined te threw up the sponge. In the National League die
Plrntes haven't even an eiifside cluincp, the odd- being about eleven te one.
However, en the barest mathematical peibllity they might win the pennant.
As the standings -hew this morning, the Pirates have wen eighty-eight gam s
and lest sixty, while the record of the GlanU -hew ninety-three wins and
fifty -seven reverses.
That means a four-game lend for the men of McGraw. New Yerk has
four games te play nnd the Pirates have six. One victory for the McGraw
clan and one defeat for the Pirates and the pennant will go te New Yerk.
In order te win the pennant, the Pirates must win all their remaining games,
while the Giants are losing two. fttie victory for the Giants and three de
feats while the Pirates urc winning all six will send the race into n tie.
The Pirates, if they lese two games, cannot iini-h the season In a tie, whi'.e
the Giants by winning two of their remaining gjtnes will clinch the pennant.
As two of the four remaining games are with the Phillies, there Is every
chance in the world that they will nail the flag te the mast.
The two ether games the Giants must play are with the Dodgers. Yes
tcrday the Giants defeated the Caidlnnls. Nenf doing the hurling.
Till' (limits haie nt,thin) te de until Saturday, v hen they meet

On the Other Hand the Indians
OA'EU m the American League the Indian"' chancer, are n trille better than
the Pirates Cleveland lius four games te play and the Yunkeer, ri.x.
Twe games separate the two clubs this morning. A clean sweep of the four
game series with the White Sex that starts en Thur-din. which is net improb
able, while the Yankees uie losing three out of .ix will send the teama into a
deadlock.
Knur defeats for the Yanks and the same number of victories for the
Indians and the well-known flag will find its way te the tlncpele in Cleveland.
Four victories out of the six gnmi s played, while the Indians are winning tli"
same number, will give the Ynnk- the pennant by a game. With three of
the remaining six gnmcs en the schedule te he plnjed with the Athletics, who
have been easy nil season for Huggllis and his team, and one from either the
Red Sex or the Browns and the race is clinched It is hardly thought likely
that the anlm will meet Washington In a postponed gnme, new that the

THE opening of the new (djinpla A. A. was a big success last night. The
magnificent clubhouse wn- packed nnd the spectators saw some high-rlass
nnd exciting boxing. The fistic gnme is popular here, and there Is every in
dication that the Ohmpla will continue Its success.
Tomorrow night tin re will be another pugilistic opening, when the L'e
Palace Htnges its first show of the season. Mike MeTigue, cluimant of the
Irish middleweight chnmpienshlp nnd real Cnnndinn champion, will hook up
With Jeff Smith In the wind-up. McTlgue -prang a big surprire in Jersey

"Guilferd's chip shot is the best in
amateur ranks. He nlwayp has beer,
a deadly putter, nnd his long Irons are
lemaKjab'.e for accuracy. He does net
hnve te rel tee much en his terrific
weed shots, for which he is mostly
famous. At getting out of trouble he
is a wiznrd. Guilferd has an ideal

them."
Outside of that the new champion
will be able te display very little in
the way of golf at Tredyffrin next

ACTION AND EXCITEMENT
Hy LOUIS II. JAFFE
Half n dozen battles were staged in
the wind-up of the Inaugural show of
the 1021-22 season nt the Olympla
A. A. Inst night, with that between the
pnlr of Joes Rcnjamin nnd Tiplltz
overshadowing ethers net scheduled nnd
put en In the nudiencc. Incitement
was se Intense, throughout the Renjn-min-Tiplitz
melee that some of the
spectators get their lighting bleed boil

took plnce in different sections of the
jammed palatial punch parlor.
I'nndeinnniuni is only n mild word te
ule in cTplaininz the wav the big crowd,
numbering mere than fiOOO, broke loose
with wil'l west looting, gesticulating
nnd shrilling for their mnn. with Ren
jnmin n -light fnveiite of the cheering
smiadrens. Rut at the finish of eight
of the me-t foreciou- rr.un Is witnessed
in Philadelphia Tiplltz emerged from
the hurricane of wallop- a winner by u
hiiir-line decision.
Renjamiu and Tiplit. banged nnd
tipped ouch ether nil ever the brand
new ring. The former let lly with a
Uncle of his terrific right cre-ses. while
Tiplit,: came back with n cnrlead of hi-oheieo-t
left hook-. It was a fracas te

Renjamiu VeaIicus
It wns the stnminn of Tiplltz thnt
enabled him te go through just n little
in front of Renjnmin. The lntter net
only went tired in the last two rounds,
but he also was weakened. While Ren
jatnin's blows lacked some of Ills steam
in the seventh nnd eighth rounds, Tip
lltz continued te whale the Cullfernlun
Uieusly around the body with left
hooks The end of the contest found
Renjamiu seated in his chair bending
ferwnrd, greatly fatigued and sick.
While it took Tiplltz only a few sec
onds te lenve the ring after the sound
of the final gong, it wns several min
utes before Rcnjamin straightened hlm-
-elf out and wns nble te disappear Inte
,he tunnel under the plntferm leading
te hib dressing room. Tiplltz outweighed
Renjnmin n pound, the iutter coming in
at le.'l pounds.
It. wns a rlp-snertcr from the outset,
with the contest hnlted several times
when the lwidles of both men were found
te hnve bein greased. Referee "Pep"
O'Hriin used a towel in wiping off the
-lliny -tuff, and then things happened
H-penty. Rcnjamin shook up Tiplltz
and vice versa throughout the contest.
Reth were bleeding from the mouth at
the fini-li. while Tlplitz also was cut
eer the left eje.
Neither showed te advantage. In the
first round. Rcnjamin took the second,
ihe third wn- Tiplitz's, the fourth was

Princeton Needs Running Mate
for Leurie, Cilrey and Gar-
rity in Backfield
HARD TASK FOR TRIMBLE
lly JACK STRTJBING
I'ermcr Qunrtrrhnck en Princeton University
Eleven.
Maury Trimble, who. n few years
age, upheld Tiger athletic fame en
gridiron nnd basketball fleer, is seek
ing new laurels for Princeton new.
Maury, who Is assisting "Rill" Reper
in coaching the football team, Is turn
ing strong lenses en the bnckfleld
candidates In nn effort te uncover a
preppect who leeks geed enough te
brenk into the varsity qunrtet.
Three po-itiens in the Princeton of
fensive four nre clinched. These three
pets will be held down by Den Leurie,
Gllrey nnd Gnrrity. There's n big, vn
ennt spnee nt the ether position, and,
se fnr, no one hns performed suffi
ciently well te 1k rated ns n worthy
running mnte for these three vcternnr,.
Aside from seeking a fourth back,
Trimble nlse Is searching for n couple
of substitutes nnd nn understudy for
Leurie. Aside from the trio of vet
ernns, the lending cendldntes for the
position en the regulnrs nre Alferd,
Cleaves, Newly, Van Guerblg, Smith
nnd Emery.
Straight Arm Lacking
Alferd is the biggest of the sextet
nnd hns hnd n let of experience. He
leeks like a man who can stand pun
ishment. Cleaves carries the ball well
and runs cleverly off tnckle, but lm
no straight arm. This is serious. Newly
shows ability te pick a hole, nnd, once
through the line, changes direction
without seeming te leso his bpeed or
his balance. Vnn Guerblg Is n hnr 1
runner, but seems te learn very slowly
Smith nnd Emery nre two ether.- of
last year's fre-hies, but, although the
glve some premi-e, they will hnve te
develop n grent deal.
In scriminnges the backfield has been
composed of "Reb" Stiusen, tpiartei :
Alferd, Clcnvcs and Newly. Despit
the fact that the were constantly get
ting In each ether's way and forgetting
signals, this backfield had little trouble
gaining ground became of the weal;
opposition of the emelettes.
Conch Trimble has taken his pupils
te tnsk concerning the blgnnls, and he
hns drilled them thoroughly, with the
result thnt they showed better in e--terdny's
practice, but btlll them is
plenty of room for Improvement.
Preliminary te daily scrlmmnges the
men arc put through vnrieus acrobatic
feats conducive te acquiring balance
nnd nbillty te keep or regain their feet.
This is somewhat of an innovation this
season, but is based en geed, sound
principle nnd results have been stc-n in
the scrimmages.
Reb Stlnsen Leeks Geed
Reb Stlnsen leeks geed nt quiuter
buck. He lias two years ahead of him
nnd shows a great deal of premise, lie
handles himself well, inns the team con
fidently and carries the ball fairly well
although this Is net his big nMet. What
Impressed the reaches wns the certain
'nmeunt of light und drive that enui-
nated from him und was inspired into
the team. MaePhee is another randi
date fur this position. Waddy carries
the ball well and bus lets of pepper and
grit. lie can also punt and pass, which
adds te liis value as the. much-desired
threat.
Outside of straight backfield play a

TIGER STILL LOOKS
FOR FOURTH BACK
alie terror of vnrslty football teams
is back nt the University of Pennsyl
vania ready te get Inte Instant action
against the first eleven or any eleven
Conch Hclsman might send against the
scrubs. Net only that but Rnbe Greve
Is out with an open defi te the entire
eqund. He has guaranteed that from
this afternoon en he Is going te show
the coaching staff why he should be
considered for a place en the varsity
sqund. ,
Greve will be remembered ns the
young man weighing around 135 pound
and standing nbeut 5 feet 0 inches in
his stocking feet who last fall playing
ns qunrtcrback of first scrub cloven
made the vnrslty. nnd the conches sit up
nnd take notice. His playing then has
teen chronicled In these columns and
It Is expected thnt mere of his doings
will nlse be written of here.
Lnst season Tem McNnmnrn. took
Greve out of the third scrub lineup one
afternoon and stnrtcd him ngalnst the
vnrslty. Almest from the start he dls
plated ability as n quarterback, run
ning the tenm with the precision of n
veteran of mnny a campaign, although
he wns In his first. In addition his nbil
lty te carry the pigskin against the
heavier nnd mere experienced vnrslty
team earned for him the title of the
"living engineer."
Helsmnn hns only Rex Wrny te de
pend en for the quarterback pest. Mc
Annlly never plnycd the signal calling
position previous te this fall, and while
he has been doing excellent work he Is
mere valuable without the extra duties.
With Greve ns n substitute qunrtcr Me
Annlly could be used ns n hnlfbnck,
while Greve could be shot Inte the
breach ns a quarterback.
Of course the Woodbury lad, meaning
Greve, must win his spura again this
year. Past performances count for
naught, but (Jreve was within nn ncc
of mnklng the vnrslty sqund last sea
son nnd with thnt experience te guide
lilm this sensen should make the squad.
MrNnmnra Praises Grove
Tem McNnmnrn, who leeks nfter the
conch, wns delighted with the nppenr
nnce of Greve. "He Is one sweet little
qunrterback, and I expect te use him In
(he scrlmmnges ns seen us he tells me
thnt he Is ready. Last year he wns my
mainstay behind the line nnd he should
be the snme this yenr. If he shows
anything like the playing he did last
year it will be mighty hnrd te keep him
with the red-jcrseved boys this sensen."
While the varsity was given an enBy
afternoon yesterday, the few students
nnd the scribes who witnessed the prac
tice sew n strenuous scrimmage be
tween the first nnd second scrub elevens
that lasted for mere than nn hour. Mc
Nnmnrn took them ever te the north
side of the field nnd sent them through
ns severe n drill ns they have lind tin
season. Up nnd down the Held the two
tenms struggled for seventy minutes
with the score nbeut even when thei
concluded hostilities. As n result of
their workout, McNnmnrn expects te
select n scrub tenm tedny that will
make the varsity hustle.
La-t week the scrubs did net enrrv
the bnll once, while Deluwnre in the
opening game carried it four times. The
result is that the varsity coaches nre
calling for n scrub bnckficld quartet te
give the red nnd blue jerseyed varsity
a chnnce te show their defensive pow
ers. With Greve back te direct playing
and n chance thnt Tex Humer may get
en the scrnb eleven along with severnl
ether inellglblcs who are expected te
report during this week, McNnmnrn
expects te give the vnrslty all the op
position in the world.
Hamcr and Malicr Repert
learner, who was the ,-tnr of the
freshman eleven last year with his won
derful line plunging, nnd wns expected
te be one of the btars of the ivnrsttty
this season, left the University shortly
lifter the mid -year examinations last
February. Yesterdny he returned nnd
expects te work out with the scrub
tenm. If he gets into netien against
the varsity they will be facing a replica
of Jim Robertsen, the Dartmouth cap
tain. Hnmer stands six feet in height
and weigh- close te 11)0 pounds.
