FROM now on until the deciding
gntno of the world bnseball se
ries speculntlon will bo brisk.
Naturally the rubid fnns of
Philadelphia cannot see anything to
It but Connie Mack's demon Athlfitca,
whllo In Chicago there Isn't a natlvo
who Isn't satlstled thirt. Frank Chance's
crow can "beat the Mack men In any
thing from marbles to plngpong with
the great game included. More Inter
est Is taken In tbo coming scries than
has been the case In tho last few
years. Tho renson for this Is that
tho two teams appear evenly matched,
nnd hard fought for struggles are an
ticipated. The Cubs have tho strong
est catching department. Their Infield
has n shade on that of Philadelphia,
nnd tho Cubs' suburban trio outclasses
that of tho Athletics. Philadelphia's
pitching staff Is stronger than that of
tho Cubs. They are a better hitting
team thnn the Teddy Hears. But
Chance's club is a smoother baseball
machine. Taken all In all, tho two
teams are evenly matched, nnd tho
way tho managers, Chanco nnd Mack,
handle their men, especially tho pitch
ers, will be closely watched by tho
fans.
Chanco and Mack Are Great Leaders.
Connie Mack and Prank Chanco are
two great managers, master minds in
their profession, and they have worked
out a winning combination from two
directly opposite angles.
Mack is n great believer in himself,
and his purpose has always been to
find the kind of material that satisfies
his critical taste and then weld and
mold It into players who follow out
his Ideas of attack and defense. lie
is tho absolute director of affairs un
der his own roof. Ills players must
play his game, be in perfect unison
with him on nil his principles, their
own Individuality burled and subser
vient to his directions, nnd the result
is that when the Athletics go into tho
field to do battle there are nlno Con
nie Macks arrayed ngnlnst tho opposi
tion. Mack an Unique Character.
Mack Is one of the most unique
characters In baseball. Ever go to a

HOW CONNIE MACK LOOKS DCRIKO A BlT.Ii
GAME.
ball gamo to discover tho director gen
eral of tho Athletics? Ever notice
Connie Mack in tbo limelight? Ever
soo what becomes of bim nfter tho
ball game? Well, if you never ob
served theso tilings tnke a look and
you will be surprised. Mnck enters
tho ball park when nobody knows.
His presence is not heralded. Ho just
comes. Ho never appears in front of
tbo bench. During tho gamo a long,
lean, anxious looking man may bo dis
covered in tho shade of the visiting
club's bench, but that's tho nearest ho
ever comes to tho public gaze.
"When tho game commences Connie
Mack crosses his legs, unllmbcrs them,
makes motions with a score card and
records religiously Just what happens
to every batter. A gentle wuvo hero
or thero of tho ever present score card
Trying Hard to Rival Catcher Sullivan.
Ever since Billy Sullivan of tho Chi
cago Americans performed tho feat of
catching three balls thrown from tho
Washington monument backstops nil
over tho country are trying similar
stunts, only tho dlstanco tho ball is
dropped from is much lower thnn tho
monument Earl Baxter, catcher of
tho Beverly (Mass.) baseball club, a
few days ago caught threo balls In suc
cession dropped from tho top of the
Bunker mil iflnuraent, a dlstanco of
201 feet. fr
Steals 105 Bags In One Season.
By stealing 105 bases this season
William Zimmerman of tho Utlca team
of tho Now York Btnto league has
written his namo In baseball history
beside that of such old tlmo heroes as
Hamilton, Drown and Lango.
o II, I
ins i
Is enough to change the whole- cotim-
of tho game.
Mack never passes his signals in u
public way. He is the soft pmlnl
' manager. One wave of his card
I means this, nnd nnothcr peculiar lit
I tie twist of tho pasteboard removes
one pitcher nnd substitutes another.
There Is no lack of motions In C.
Mack's movements. He has the wig
wag way down fine. After a game
Mack does not ride to Uie hotel In a
bus with the players. Like tho com
mon people, ho boards tho street cur

nnd goes to tho hotel. Ho usually
wnlts till most of tho crowd Is out of
the way. Ho does not like to be Jos
tled. With all his easy going style
nothing escapes him. Interviewing 0.
Slack is productive of much informa
tionfor C. Mock. The longer you
till; to Mack the less he tells you nnd
the more he finds out from you.
Chance Likes Fighters.
Frank Chance, tho Cubs' leader. Is
of different caliber. He is a typical
exponent of the playing manager. He
will be on first unless the aforemen
tioned dire calamity works a change
in the color scheme. And from the
Initial corner tho P. L. is a master
hand at driving his hurlers. Ask any
umpire who has officiated on tho bases
when some poor, unhappy Cub linger
has experienced n bad spell.
When the reins were ham'ed over to
Chance with power to do anything
within reason to secure n winner for
Chicago he had it all figured out He
wnuted and secured n lineup of fight
ers. Where individual stars would fit
Into the combination he found and se
cured them. When ho failed to find
the right material in the bright lights
he developed the kind of player he
needed a fighting, hustling Individual,
such as. per example, Johnny Evers.
And the result is that every time that
Cub brigade wanders out on n diamond
thero are nino self confident fighting
.warriors in action tho never-say-dlo
kind, who must fight to win even if
they fight with themselves. That is
the Chance combination.
How Their Methods Compare.
By wny of comparison of tho ef
fectiveness of these two combinations
one might turn back to a recent gamo
with St. Louis. Mack used eighteen
players In n vain endeavor to defeat
tho Browns. Connio was directing
every angle of the play, but all his
baseball astuteness was not equal to
the occasion. Chance didn't play in
tho first game In the last series with
New York. In fact he didn't don a
uniform or go near the bench. Evers
was in charge, and that Chance com
bination, trailing for a little portion
of tho game, broke the Giant defense
early and enme off with (lying colors
The Cubs fight all the way, and their
greatest forte seemingly is "coming
from behind."
With the Cubs the brains of the com
bination are distributed evenly around
the diamond, with the center pin of
tho same on tbo Initial sack, ablo to
direct without mistake all thoso Intri
cate plays that crop up in lnsldo base
ball. Tho contention hero is that thoso
conditions give tho Cubs a further
edge, and a pronounced ono nt that,
which contention cannot bo reasonably
contradicted.
Remarkable Pitching Record.
By striking out more than a score of
batters and keeping his opponents
helpless for two games recently Pitch
er Tucker of tho Bessemer (Ala.) team
Is believed to havo established a prece
dent In bnseball by winning both ends
of n doublo header without n hit or
run. Tucker gavo several bases on
balls, but nothing reserabllug a hit was
secured off his delivery.
Shrubb to Quit Running.
Alfred Shrubb, tho famous English
runner, who will coach tho narvard
university squad, admits that his days
as a runner are over. Tho llttlo Eng
lishman, who balds all tho world's
records from ono nnd one-half to ten
miles, says bo does not think bo will
ever run another race, as his legs will
not stand tbo strain.
