    NEWS OF THE SPORTING WORLD
$2,813.10 FOR EACfIBRAVE:
MACKMAN GETS 52.031.68
Because of the Short World's Series
the Club Owners and National
Commission Divide a Smaller Sum
Than in Any Year Since l»lo
A check for 12.R13.10 will be made
out to every member of the new
world's champion, George Stallings'
Boston Braves, as his share of the prize
money. A total of *121,900.94 was
given to the players, and Boston, as
the winner, receives sixty per cent, of
this, or $73,140,56, which will be
equally divided between the twenty
six, eligible Braves. The "Macks. ou the
other hand, are entitled to forty per
cent, of the players' share, or $4 8,-
750.38. This will be equally divided
among twenty-four men, which gives
every Mackman $2,031.68. The play
ers receive less money than has fallen
to their lot since 1910.
Because of the shortness of the se
ries, the club owners and the National
Commission divide a smaller sum than
in any world's series since 1910. The
«lub owners receive fifteen per cent,
of $225,739, the total receipts of the
/„°' lr which amounts to
$40,6u-.55. The National Oommission
is entitled to ten per cent, of the total
or $22,573.
No matter how manv games are
played before the championship is de
cided, the players share onlv in the
first four games, and the receipts in
the remaining clashes go to the club
owners and the Xational Commission.
Last year the attendance at the base
ball blue ribbon was 151,000 for five
games, against 111,009 for the quar
tet of battles this fall. At the deciding
struggle in 1 913, 36,682 persons at
tended, which leaves a total of 114,-
318 for the first four games, 3,309
more than the number that witnesses
this year s series. This accounts for
ihe fact that the players' share for
last year exceeded this year's total bv
$13,363.25. The prize was divided be
tween twenty-live Mackmen in 1913,
and each received $3,246.36. Each
member of the Giants, the losers, was
given $2,164.22. In 191'2 the plavers"
share was high and each Red ' Sox
player was awarded $4,022. while
every New York Giant was given $2 -
560.
Each of the four umpires received
SI,OOO. the money coming from the
National Commission's share of the re
ceipts.

New York, Oct. 14.—The so-called I

I at 2 to 1.
, When Boston won the first game
supporters of the Athletics did not lose

0 response from those who flock along •

J ton's knapsack, the Athletics' backers

PREPARING FOR HARVARD
Coach HoUenback's Crew Being Condi
tioned for Big Game
State College, Pa., Oct. 14.—Two
hours' scrimmage and a mile run
around the track was given Penn
State s football squad yesterday after
noon in preparation for the I'rsinus
game on Saturday.
Coach Hollenbftek said his charges
need more work to enable them to
stand the naff of full time quarters
against Harvard, and he began ves
terda.v to lengthen the daily practice.
The regulars were pitted against the
pick of substitutes yesterday afternoon.
The scrubs used 'Harvard formations
successfully, gaining freely through
the line between tackles and guards.
To stiffen the defense for the struggle
with the Crimson, ( oaehes Hollenback
anil Harlow are designing special de
fensive formation for the next two
weeks. Close attention will be given
to this feature. State's clean slate has
proved a powerful incentive to the
players to be primed for the Harvard
contest.
/Carney and Kratt, the tackles, were
drilled yesterday afternoon to break
up close end plays.

author of this defiant adventure into

"Seven Keys to Baldpate"
When George ;M. Co'han wrote the
dramatic, version of George Randolph
Chester's popular " Gpt-Rich Qiii'ck Wal
'lingfofd'' stories, it was thought he had
reached t'he apex of his career as a play
wright, and t'hat his genius could carry
him no further, but in his new play,
"Beven Ke\s to Pald'plate," which the
talented young author styles a mystery
farce, and which he adapted from the
novel of the same name by Karl Derr
■Riggers, he has gone even "Walling
ford" a lar> further, urn) has evolved
absolutely the most whimsical dramatic
offering of the century. "Seven Keys,
to Baldpate" cannot be described. Its
1 lot and treatment is so far removed
from the" conventionally accepted idea
of piaywriting that the mind fails to
grasp its peculiar oddity without seeing
it. "Sevqn Keys to Baldpate" wi'U be!
