MACK DENIES STORIES;
TO KEEP PUNS SECRET
Sore Over Report That He Intends
to Quit Philadelphia; Stock
Not For Sale
Philadelphia, June 30.—Persistent
rumors to the effect that Connie
Mack's holdings in the Athletics were
for sale and that he had named his
price to a syndicate which has the ap
proval of Ban Johnson, president of
the American League, were emphati
cally denied by the manager of the
Mackmen last night. Mack also re
fused to confirm or deny reports that
several of his players are to be traded
or sold.
The report that Maok was ready to
sell out his holdings in the club gained
circulation about a week ago, when
Ban Johnson came to Philadelphia to
confer with the owners of the Ath
letics. It is said the league officials
are dissatisfied with the way Mack is
breaking up his club and that there
were certain men interested in the
league who were eager to take over
Mack's stock. Manager Mack said:
"My interest in the Athletics is not
for sale at any price, but any time my
partners are dissatisfied with the way
I'm running my ball club, or the Amer
ican League does not like what I'rp
doing and wants to drive me out of
the clt' , \ they can do It easy enough.
But it will be a case of driving me out,
for I don't intend to quit. I'm here
to stay, and I'll win just as sure as
I've won before. To-day I read a re
port about Jack Barry, and I want to
say right here that I do not intend to
tell anybody anything."
FEDERAL LEAGUE ALL RIGHT
By Associated Press
New York, June 30.—Representa
tives of all the clubs in the Federal

sion of which President Gilmore

untrue. The league was never In bet
ter shape and Its future has been guar
anteed to-day by the members of the
finance committee. All of them have
given assurance that they stand ready
to make up any losses that might be
incurred by any individual club."

Stanford Trains in Mud;
Water Facilities Are Bad
Sfecial to Tht Telegraph
San Francisco, Cal., June 30. —Why
Leland Stanford University's Junior
eight, which took second place in the
PoughVeepsie regatta on Tuesday, did
so mostly on brawn, and showed no
form to speak of, was explained here
yesterday by E. C. Behrens, Stan
ford's graduate manager of athletics.
Stanford, Behrens said, rows virtu
ally in the mud while at home. A
slimy slough is their course. The water
in It is so muddy It is thick. The
slough is eight miles by rail and a con
siderable walk after that from the
campus. Once or twice a week Frank
Guerena, the coach, slips down from
San Francikco and coaches. The rest
of the time the team does the best
It can.
Guerena was ooxswai '*» the Stan
ford crew of 1912 which went to pieces
at Poughkeepsie after covering the
course the day before the race in bet
ter than the morning time. Since then
his main ambition in life has been to
tpke another crew back.
TITUS AND GEORGE QUIT
Kansas City, Mo., June 30.—John
Titus, the old Philadelphia National's
outfielder and George, a
pitcher, who were released by the lo
cal American Association club at St.
Paul on Sunday, arrived in this city
and announced that they had been
released because they had refused to
stand for a cut in salary.
Both players said they had Iron
clad contracts with the club and that
the management of the club had no
right to release them. George is a
former Trl-State star and has had
previous salary troubles.
Youngest and Smallest
Rowing Coach in the Game
IS
-■-§£; Sr D
FBAMH GUE&KA._
When the Leland Stanford Uni
versity oarsmen arrive at Poughkeepsie
for the intercollegiate regatta on June
28 those who follow the rowing game
will be treated to a novelty In the sight
of Frank Guerna, coach of the Stan
ford varsity.
Guerna Is not only the youngest, but
the smallest, rowing coach on record.
He is 26 years old, 5 feet 3 Inches In
height and weighs but 115 pounds. In
1912 and 1913 Guerna was coxswain of
the Stanford varsity. He was grad
uated in 1913 and for the past two
years has been the rowing coach. That
he is a coach of ability is shown by the
record of this year's crew, which won
the Pacific coast championship by de
feating the University of Washington
and the University of California crews
In the triangular regatta last month.
Guerna says a victory for the south
erners in the big regatta the last of
this month Is more than he can hope
for, but If the Stanford hoys inake a
good showing he will be more than
satisfied.
