In World's Championship Games

New Vork. Oct. 7 ln all likelihood \
only four men "11 bo called upon to ;
work at the receiving «*i»lis of tho bat s
terics during the coming World s * ham t
p ionship levies between the Phuade. j
phia Athletics and Boston Nationals.
Ba.-h club will undoubtedly depend ,
upon tho two catchers who have givo.i |
such a good account of themselves all ,
through the playing season. Thev will ,
take an important part in the struggle
for as soon as a cat her dons tite mitt t
ami .mask of lis calling in a contest he
assumes an immense amount of re
sponsibilitv. In fact there is no tell (
hig how many of the games are direct
ed from behind the plate. In addition |
to exchanging signals with the pitcher
as to the weakness or strength of the |
batters, he has to be a quick thinker. .
keen sighted, always alert and invan
sbly accurate in throwing to head oft
the base pilferers. ,
In this department Connie Mack is
probabl* the more fortunate in having
Lapp rnnd Soliang, both of whom have
had previous experience in W or>d s,
Championship games. I.app pla> ed in
the 1910. 1311 and 1913 games, each
time on the winning side and this will
l>e the fourth time his services will be
needed for the retention of the ting in
Philadelphia. Although only thirty
years old. l*app has hail a lot of export

dates back .just four years. Ira Thomas

Manager Mack cou'd call in case ot
accident to either of the two tnon
tioned. but he has not been in the
game much during the past season and
it is not likely that his services will
be needed. The Athletics also have a
fourth catcher in Mc.Yvoy. late of the
Baltimore International League team,
but is is not at all probable that he i
will be cali«d upon to go behind the
bat against the Braves.
Manager Stalling* has two very re
liable receivers in Gowdy and Whaling,
both of whom have been wonderfully
successful tiys past, season. Both a,
voting men and each has been identi
fied with professional baseball for five
years. The success of the team, phe
nomen&l as it was. in landing the Na
tional League pennant, this year,
speaks volumes for the work of the bat
teries and the catchers naturally are
not to be overlooked for the parts they
played so well in bringing about the
unlooked for victory.
Gowdy, who did the lion's share of
catching for the Graves during the sea
son. stands one inch over six feet and
weighs IST pounds. Whaling who is
twenty-five years old, just one year old
er than Gowdy, also is a six-footer and
weighs ISB pounds.

NO ARMY-NAVY FOOTBALL
THIS SEASONJS DECISION!
Secretary of Navy Daniels and Secre
tary of War Garrison at Conference
Brings Distressing News of Cancel-
Mation of Big Athlotic Event
Washington. D. l*., Oct. 7.—Follow
ing a conference with Secretary of the
Navy Daniels, Secretary of War Garri
son late yesterday announced that
there will be no Army and Navy foot
ball game this year.
This news will be a distinct shock
to the followers of both teams, as hope
had been entertained that the game
would be played. There has been much'
wrangling, so much so that the officials
•'higher up" announced some time ago
that play would not be a feature of the
1 *>l4 football season if the two fac
tions could not agree.
Marly yesterday morning a confer
ence of the officials was held and it
was announced that at a conference
later in the day tho matter would be
settled. The conference ended later
and brought the distressing news that
the game would be abandoned until the
| service officials could come to some
! definite agreement as to the place and
•other details.
Philadelphia was in line for the
game this \ ear, and other cities were
also eager to stage the affair.
; The game is "off" owing to the
i fact that the navy has finally aud do
cisivcly refused to accept the 10-year
agreement which was the army's ulti
matum. Secretary Daniels aud Garrison
believe that the 10-year agreement, pro
viding for games alternately in New-
York and Philadelphia, furnished the
best solution of the difficulty. Sec re
; tary of the Xaw Daniels strongly
! urged the Navy Athletic Council to
accept it. The latter, however, de
clined through its representative. Lea
tenant Fairfield, who came t>. .Washii.g
ton yesterday with the navy's ultima
turn.
Many officer? insist there is yet hope
that the game will be played, but both
Secretaries Garrison and Daniels say'
they are displeased with the stubborn
spir.t shown by both sides, and declare
there « not the smallest possibility of
a game now.
BRAVES ARE CONFIDENT
Stagings Says Deal Will Fill Smith's
Place Satisfactorily
New York. Oct. 7.—Manager Stal
lings and Captain F.\ *rs. questioned
last night as to what effect tho loss of
Smith would have on the work of the
Braves in the championship series, both
declared his absence, would not be a
serious handicap to the team's effect
• ivoness as Deal could fill the place sat
isfactorily. Other members of the team
expressed the same opinion. All the
players declared themselves confident
of winning against Ihe Athletics in the
' big sey*s.
Dear played third base for the
, Brave* in ike .c.-irlv parrot" ti*e season,
but developed ' 'charley-horse'' and
suffered from sore throat. His place
was taken by Smith, who was pur
chased from Brooklyn. It was stated
• last night that Peal has fully recovered
and will be in condition for t'ne worl i':
- series.
"We were well prepared for jus l
1 such a contingency,"' said Managei
Stalling*. - 'I am glad to be in a posi
tion to say there is uot a place on th<
- team into which we could not put i
1 substitute at a moment's notice.
5 "Let me tell vou wo are going t<
give the Athletics the hardest run thei
1 ever got when we moot them in thi

Boston Nationals in Philadelphia Pre
paring for tie World's Champion
ship Games—Bender L.kcly to Op
pose James in Opener
AtSOCtdcVd Pit's*.
Philadelphia, Oct. 7.—The Boston j
1 Braves, champions of the National !
League, are in this city preparing for
the opening of the world's series here
i on Friday when they meet the Phila
delphia Athletics winners of the Amor
ican League race. The Bostonians, who j 1
ended their National league schedule
in Brooklyn yesterday, planned a light i
practice this morning on the National
League grounds while the presentj(
world's champions expect to work outit
at Shibe Park where t,lie first two games j
of the series will be staged. The Na j
tional league players will all get an
eye on their opponents when they view
the contest between the Athletics and
New York in the farewell game of the j
j American League schedule here to-day.
Neither of the opposing managers,
has indicated who will bo his pitching j
1 selection for the opening game but the j
' majority of the critics believe that i
' Bonder, the veteran Indian twirler. j
will lie Connie Mack's selection and j
, that he w ill bo opposed by .lames, who
they figure is the best find of the Bos
ton inoundsmen, to repeat during the I
'short series if necessary.
Manager Stalling® says that lie has
' i nt-t vet made up his mind whether 1
■lames. Tyler. Rudolph or one of the
r other Boston pitchers will be given tliO|
* i honor of opening tho series. Be de
dared last night, however, that Deal
will be chosen to fill the berth at third
' base left vacant by the injury of
Smith.
! The long line of men who has wait
ed for the open .ig of the sale of tick
ets at li o'clock to-day presents a sorry
spectacle at daybreas. Many of them
1 had been iu line for 4 8 liojrs. snatch
1 itig only what sleep they could by
: resting or soap boxes, camp stools and
1 chairs. From the entrance to tho do- j
'! partnient store where the tickets were
; plnee i <n sale the line stretched for
nearly four block,* with only two breaks |
!at street crossings to allow the pas- ]
' sage of traffic.
From time to time vendors of hot j
sausages anil edibnbles of various kituls '
hawked alnng the line and new arrivals
! would make things lively until they. :
| too exhausted by the long wait, en
deavured to snatch a lew hours sleep.
A detail of policemen was on hand t >
preserve order but there was little d.s
turbanee every one seeming to observe
ridigly the rights of positions.
| Fully iv'iefy per cent, of the nearly
• 2.000 persons waiting for tickets, it i
, was estimated, were boys, many of
, whom admitted their only object was
. to hold their position in the hope of
' disposing of it for a liberal compen- l
sation when the hour for the opening.
. of the sale arrived.
