THE SOUANTON TRIBUNE-SATURDAY HORNING-, OCTOBER 2. 180T. ii inc DETROIT TEAM OF TEN YEARS AGO Ned Hanlon, Who VVas Caplnlti of tlic Club, Makes Some Comparisons. THEY WeRE.WOND0R.FUL HITTERS Hut In Thoso Wnys tlic Pitcher's Ilos Mas Ten Feet Nearer tv the lMnto Tlinn It Is Todny--Sniizol Is tho Only Meinhorof tho Dotrolts Who Whs Actively in tho Gnmo Jn the 1MB licnRilo This Vcnr. Thoso of the thousands of base balil cranks who have followed thcworltlnRS of the jwrne for the past ten or twelve years well remember the great De troit team, managed by W. H. Wnt lliw, which won tho league champion ship so handily lii 1S87 and then cap tured the world's championship series from the rft. Louis' Hrowns. Tho won derful batting power of the Detroit will probably never be excelled, at least by teams of tho present time, especially when It Is considered that the pitchers' box was ten feet or more nearer the plate than It. Is now. Ned Hanlon, who has so successfully managed the Haltlmores, was the cap tain and centerlH'lder of the Detroit and whs ulsr one of the fastest base runners and best tlelders In tho coun try. Hlg Dan llroutliers, nt that, time tho heaviest batsman In the league, played first base. Second base was guarded by Fred Dunlap, who was a wonderful fielder. Jack Howe played shnrtptop, and "Dencon" Jim White cf.v.M'ed third. Hordle Richardson was the left fielder and big Sam Thomson was In right garden. Charley Hcnnett and Ganzel were the catchers, while the pitchers were "Lady" Ualdwln, Charles Getzeln, George Weldman and Larry Twltchell. Of this list Gurnet Is the only one who Is actively engaged In the big league, lie Is coaching for tho Bos tons. Tlennett, who lost his legs In a railroad accident some time ago, Is living In Detroit, llroutliers Is play ing first base for the Sprlngllelds of the Kastern league. Thompson Is on the Philadelphia club's bench. Howe Is manager of tho Buffalo Kastern league team, and, as has been said be fore, Ilanlon is handling the Ualtl mores. Being thoroughly conversant with the play of the old Detrolts and tho Ilaltlmores. Haitian's comparison of the two teams, therefore, and his comments on their different styles of play will bo Interesting. In nnswer to n reporter's recent Inquiry regarding tho strength of the two teams, Han lon said: WHAT HANLON SAID. "You remember that baseball as played by the Detroit champions and the ISaltlmores is not the hame article. The game, tike all things, has pro gressed, and It is today mow scientific than ten ypnrs ago. It requires more thought and headwork. It Is In fome respect like checkers and chess, nnd must be played upon systematic plans. Modern baseball, as played by the Ilal tlmores, is based upon tho Idea to kerp opposing teams guessing. It Is a case of dealing out uncertainties at all times. Against some teams tho Dattl mores adopt one stylo of play; against others they shift. They study the weak points accordingly. The game is more nggresslve, too. There is more kick ing, more ginger, faster base running, bunting systematic team play at bat, which means the 'hit-and-run' system, and the players are younger. "Hut by all this I do not mean to create the Impression that Detroit was n weaker team than DaJtlmore. Taken ns a whole, the Wolverines were til's greatest batsmen collectively thnt ever played together. They weiv? nearly all left-handed hitters -and sluggers, too. If Sam Thompson or llroutliers bad been asked to bunt In th'ose days, there would have ben a howl of Indignation from tho crowd, for tho cranks wanted to see these men and the rest of us hit It out. Hunting and sacrifice hitting were very little in use than. In field ing, tho Detrolts were well toward the top, nnd ther were also fair in base running, although by no means In the rncivhoih-1 class. Nearly all of thd members of the team were veterans, ns the young blood craze had not be gun to take effect. " "Can you compare the teams, man for man?" "That Is hard," replied Hanlon, "be-caugc- some persons may take offense. IJut I'll do the best I can and will show no partiality. First, let us take tho catchers. On the one hand are Bennett and Ganzel, and on the other Hoblnson and Clarke. In my honest opinion Charlie Bennett, In his time, was tho greatest throwing backstop In the country, barring one, Buck Kwlng. Bennett was a horse for work, and could handle nil sorts of pitchers with ease. Comparing hlrn with Hoblnson 1 will say that ho could catch no better but that ho was n superior thrower to bases. He lacked the headwork, how ever, thnt Hoblnson posssesses, and was not so valuable ns a coach for a young pitchers. Bennett was a good hitter, perhaps a. shade better than 'Hobble' In that his drives wero longer and hard er. I consider Clarke and Ganzel about a stand-off. "It Is Impossible to compare the pit chers because of the difference In the location of thp box, But I will not hes ltnto in saying that 'Lady' Baldwin wns the best left-handed pitcher of his day, and one of tho best that ever stood In the box. He hod wonderful command, speed and curves, and he knew how to Ke M suit a 2 otoce Jimplt tax of AMORITA ts , it) dircu Is tie Utile i stitu m receipt cf 23 cu,' jtfSSi itfiCiAUXifiaOaiUMl IT. Nt W YORK .SMOKING MlXTOltf iUorlil of right-hander, ns good on the nvcrage, work tho hatters, Getzeln was a good one nnd could stand more work than many twlrlers, "When wo compare Brouthers to Doyle, Dan was Doyle's superior as a batsman because ho could hit nil pitchers, and his drives wero longer nnd harder than thoso of any other player. But In every other respect ho was Doyle's Inferior, Hnnlon was quite modest when It camo to mako comparisons between Stcnzel nnd him self, but experts who saw him In his prlmo will ngreo thnt ho wns a better fielder nnd base runner than Stenzel, but not so clever a batsman. Hnnlon also declared that training methods hnd changed somewhat. Ho believes In permitting his men to drink a glass of beer after playing, or when ever they feel like It, so long ns they do not nbuse tho privilege. In the old days, drinking In any form was strictly forbidden, as 'It Is In some of the Na tional league clubs today. NATIONAL LEAGUE. ItCSllltS.

THE LOSSES HAVE BEEN HEAVY Woodruir, Whnrton, Frtrrnr nnd CJol bert Will Not Play with tho 'Vnrsity Klcven Tills Ycnr-Xcw Men Who Aro llolng Tried--Plnn Thnt Is Ilciiig Tried by Ilnrvnrd--Pcninyl-vniiittns' Nycs Aro Poetised on Princeton. Of nil the colleges constituting tho "big four" of tho football world there Is probably not ono that could havo stiffened such severe losses by gradua tion nnd faculty edict and fitlll mako such a remarkably favorable begin ning ns has tho University of Penn sylvania, In the first placo they lost by graduation Woodruff nnd Wharton, the two greatest guards who ever played together on the field; Farrar, another top-notcher, nnd Gelbert, who wns conceded to be tho best halfback on th field last year, bar none, nnd who made a name for himself at end whllr he ployed there, ' while still nt the university Is no longer on the team. Perhaps It was only University of Pennsylvania luck that made It possi ble to 1111 these positions with first class men, but McCrncken and Hare, guards, are full of promise and both know that they will haw to work hard to even equal the record of their pre decessors of last year, Wharton and Woodruff. Of the other now faces on tlie team, Outland nnd Caniett, tacklas, and AValkor, halfback, have all ac quitted themselves creditably In tho season's preliminary work. The best work, however, has boten done by Hare, a six-foot giant, who stands In Wood ruff's position, on the left side of the line, next to Overfleld. He blocks and tackles like a veteran already, and In the ganw with Franklin and Mar shall ho showed remarkable ability In breaking th'rough tho line for repeat ed gains. In addition to this new timber the h'quads which have been training at Eagle's Mere and In Philadelphia, have developed other material that Is sur prisingly strong and of unusual prom ise, and for thnt reason there is still some difficulty in naming the men for any particular place. The line Is un settled, but It Is not likely that any change will bo made In Overfleld, cen tra and MeCracken nnd Hare, guards. Outland nnd Carnett can be considered us fixtures as tackles, while Hedges and Boyle will hold the ends. Last year's quarterback, Weeks, Is good for another year, and Minds, Moiio and Jackson will look after the places back of the line. All this, of course, Is sub ject to change, ns practice develops new men or shows tho old ones better qualified for other positions. At the best the task of developing a university football team progresses slowly, nnd tho work of summarising the good points of onie player and tho bad points of another and placing each where ho will bo able to make th'o best use of his particular talents Is the bane of all college coaches, and It Is not to b wondered at that the season Is well under way before the full team Is definitely decided on. Harvard has cast all precedent In that respect to the winds this year and has decided on a permanent line-up some time be fore tho first gamo Is slated, but from a distance It appears that th'ls action can bo nothing more than an experi ment, perhaps merely a whim of Coach W. Cameron Forbes. Whatever it may be, the result will bo anxiously watch ed by the other big colleges, and If the plan proves practicable after a thor ough trial it will undoubtedly bo uni versally adopted, tho only drawback to the scheme being the persistent work required by the coaches to keep up tho ambition nnd Interest In the game of those who are not given positions at the first assignment of men. When a position for which a man has been con scientiously training Is filled by some one elss It Is but natural that he should lo3c Interest In his work, nnd it Is this handicap more than anything else that will keep Harvard's Innovation In tho background. , Of tho other colleges all Pennsylva nia eyes aro focused on Princeton, and tho desire to see nnother love-feast be tween these two big institutions Is wldspread. Tho deep-seated feeling of forgiveness that imbues tho heart of all Quaker alumni seems to have struck a responsive chord and found a coun terpart In the breasts of the Prlnce tonlans, and yet both would rather not see a reconciliation than be the first to offer overtures. Sueh virgin mod esty In foot ball circles Is not very lucratlve.but it Is very likely that some unattached arbitrator will In tho near future propose a scheme of again get ting together that will willingly be ac cepted by both sides and, If tho truth was made public, that same mysteri ous arbitrator could be found at this very tlmo diligently at work to gain his point. Why these two colleges should patch up their wounds and again meet on neutral real estato Is apparent to ev eryone. Why they do not do so Is ap parent to only those who are Intimate ly acquainted with the Inside work ings of tho athletic department of both. Foot ball always has had to support all other brands of college sports, and greater returns are received from tho gridiron for the amount of diversion offered to tho public than would be re celved from tho other branches were they ns paying In proportion to tho tlmo consumed, and that only adds to the apparent weakness that will allow one college to divorce Itself from nn other becnuso of a difference In opin ion as to the rightful ownership of a several millionth part of Uncl6 Sam's fortune. Of course, tho money consid eration may not cut much Ice as an argument, but Princeton's coffers will undoubtedly need replenishing this year. Her stand-by In former years has been her gamo with Yale, but this yeur tho scene of battle Is transferred from Now York to New Haven, and from present appearances not much more than one-half tho crowd that usually attends this game can be ex pected. But nslfo from all that, tho two Ps are bouna to be reconciled. They will both probably win all the games they play, and If they do not meet the ques tion of supremacy will be as far from settled us It wasfiast year, The Quale- crs argument Is that they havo main tained but one poslton since the orig inal breach, and that tho Hcd nnd Blue tins been ready to meet the Tigers at any time or reasonable ptaco nt the pleasure of tho Jcrseymen, but that tho first movo toward consummation will havo to como from Princeton. On the other hand, Princeton claims to havo been wronged by Pennsylvania, nnd Insists that she speak first. That Is tho whole ense, and until tho shaft of sunlight In tho shape ofa sanctified arbitrator digs through tho hard outer surface and brings tho soft, mellow in terior to view tho hovering clouds do not seem Inclined to budgo n solitary fraction of nn inch one way or another. THREE-DAY CRICKET. Tbc Match on the Merlon Grounds at Havcrford Is a Great Society Event. Philadelphia, Oct. 1. Th'o three-day cricket match which began today be tween tho English and Philadelphia teams has resolved Itself into tho great society outdoor event of tho sea son. The match Is being played em tho picturesque grounds of the Merlon Cricket club nt Haverford. The attend ance this nfternoon numbered about 1,000; of whom at least COO were wo men. Tho exclusive "set" was out In force arid tho club houso and grand stand were crowded with fashionables. Numerous parties nlB viewed thij gamo from tally-hos, dog carts and other pri vate turnouts, lined up outside tho ropos on tho east end of the Held. The match Is the third of th series between Captain Warner's team of English amateurs and Philadelphia, The first match in which Philadelphia was represented by a team of twenty two "colts," was played on the Ger mantown club grounds at Mnnhelm and resulted In a draw. The second, on tho Belmont club grounds, Was won by the Philadelphia picked eleven by four wickets. Captain Warner today won the toss and elected to send his team first to bat. Having in mind the disastrous first inning of last week, when but 03 runs were scored. The Englishmen played a careful and steady defense of the wickets and they held up their Inning almost tho entire afternoon. When their last man was retired they had put together the splendid score of 322 runs. Tho Phlladelphlans began their in ning, nnd in tho fifteen minutes they were at bat before stumps wero drawn they lost two wickets for 13 runs. They will continue thl'lr Inning tomorrow morning.

"Spooner's tourists" had splendid weather for the flrst day of the national circuit bicycle races, which were run this afternoon on the quarter-mile board track under the au spices of tho Detroit Wheelmen. The men were In good condition and the crowd of 3,000 were enthusiastic. Tho mile open professional was won by Louuhead, of Sarnla, Ont In the hottest final yet seen on this track. For three-quarters of n mile Bald, Tay lor, Klser, Kimble and Cooper fol lowed tho pacemakers In thnt order. At five-eighths Taylor sprinted uhead, but Loufjhead went nround at the stretch and kept the lend after an cxeltlns strufjcle against Bald nnd Klser, beating by less than a foot; and Kifer narrowly took second pln:e from Bald.

So Hot Thnt Trainer McMnstcrs Had to Turn Hose on l'luycrs, Princeton, N. J., Oct. 1. -Tho chief player In tho final practice of tho 'vars ity prior to the Lehigh gamo was Old Sol, and he made It so exceedingly hot for the fierce tigers nnd the scrub eleven that Trainer McMnsters went on the gridiron with a garden hose and watered tho squad, Tho halves were cut down to flvo and six minutes re spectively, but even then tho 'varsity scored three touchdowns. Johnny Balrd, last year's great full back, after a week's lay off, made his appearanoe today and played one-half at his old position. He Is not yet In good condition, however. The Lehigh game tomorrow will be the flrst gamo of tho season for the tigers, and it is hardly probable that a big score will be rolled up.
