: — SPORT NEWS LJ=a kJ I- I McGraw Leads All As Winner of B. B. Pennants By Henry L. Farrell I iihr<l PrrNN Nlnft < <»rrf i !n|H>i3<lriit New York, Oct. 3. —Winner of eight National pennants and two world’s championships, John McGraw, mana Ker of the New York Giants Is the most successful of all managers and the best known figme in the game. In twenty years at the head of the New York team, McGraw has finish ed only one in the cellar. He has been second eight times, third once, fourth twice and in tho hole in 1915, No other manager with tho exception of Connie Mack has a record that can compare to the field boss 01 the Giants. While Mack wen six pennants with the Philadelphia Athieti much of the luster was taken off his. record by his failure in seven latet years to get his team out of the 1. place. In handling the Giants, McGra’.' I? more than a manager. He is an abso ute czar. He gives directions Irrni the bench for every move of the ofense and defense. He takes the stand that he will do all the thinkng for his players, and he goes as ar as to dicate every delivery of the litcher. Some may argue that his lolicy is not sound, but the results le Ims obtained docs not bear out that irgument. McGraw is a product of the old BalImore Oriole school which was per taps the greatest institution baseball ver posessed. It was the foundation ■ hooi of modern scientific baseball nd every member of that Plub made mod in latetyears when they accept d the post of management. The Giant chief began his profesional baseball career in his home own at Truxton, N. Y„ in 1890. He layed with Olean later and then went o Wellsville, N. Y. He broke into he big time as a shortstop with Balmore, April 26, 1891. Wilbert Robinon, now manager of the Brooklyn lub, was then catching for’ the Or -Res. McGraw came to the Giants on July 9. 1902, when Andrew' Freedman wned the club and Horace Foge as manager. McGraw was appointed lanager in 1903 and finished in sec nd position. He won the pennant in }O4 and'l9os when he met Cbnnle lack in the world's series. He also on pennants in 1911, 1912, 1913 anti 317 and was deprived of another in 918 when Merkle pulled his historic oner and the Chicago Cubs won the ennant.

Several years ago McGraw and harles Stoneham prominent New ork broker and turfman, bought the .iauts and McGraw was named viceresident. He has been very success--11 as a part-owner of the team and is :itcd as a wealthy man. Not the least of his accomplish lents was his success in stopping labe Ruth in the world’s series, 'hreo years ago when Ruth was first eginning to be a home run star, the Hants and the Red Sox were playing preseason series of exhibition antes. Ruth hiszft homer in the first wo games and McGraw announced hat he found away to stop him. Ruth ailed to get another clout on the trip. Before the world’s series last fall, tlcGraw again said that the Giajit titchers could keep the Swat King rem hitting them out of the park in he series. Ruth failed to get a honir until the last game and Phil Doug las, off whose delivery the homer was •loled out, did not make a particular -ifort to keep him from hitting. PORTLAND TEAM A LITTLE “GREEN” SAYS THE SUN The Portland high school varsity football team lost its initial game of ihe season to the veteran Decatur high school squad at the latter place, Friday afternoon. The score was 15 to 7 and the Portland team is to be commended on the showing they made in holding the veteran Decatur players to such a score inasmuch as it was the first time the local boys had been together in a game of footballall “green" players, as it were. The Decatur team is comprised of practically all “old timers”, who have been romping with the varsity team there for.several years and it is nothing to their credit in having defeated Portland’s team with such a score. It is further charged that, the Fort Wayne umpire showed partiality to the Decatur players in the game. , In the first quarter 4’ortland, held the Adams county huskies to a 0 to 0 score, the locals having the edge on the Decaturites in this quarter, having gained the most ground. In the second quarter after two safeties, Myers, left halfback for Decatur, made a touchdown tor the first, score of the game and Wittgenfeld. left end. kicker goal. Another touchdown was

made in the third quarter by Wittgenfeld. For Portland Blowers carried the pigskin past the Decatur goal in the ourth quarter and Gaunt kicked the ;cal. The Decatur team used an asorluieiit of forward passes and end runs to effect. Smith, fullback for Decatur, was forced qut of the game luring the first quarter with a icnched knee. Decatur scored first a a safety when a Portland punt was .'locked back of their goal. Captain Blowers led the attack for he local team, playing an excellent ame. —Portland Sun. INTEREST IN FOOTBALL AT PORTLAND IS GROWING Newcastle High will be the opponent of the fighting Portland High school football eleven next Saturday afternoon and plans are already under way for a big crowd and incilentally a victory for the purple and white. The local high school is fasl building up a reputation in Portland because of the scrappiness of the style aim to make it a smoother running of play and this week's practice will machine in both offence and defence. Tickets for the games are now in he hands of high school students and vili be on sale all week. The tickets ire good for the Newcastle and Decaur games, a week later, and are very moderately priced at 50 cents apiece. Portland’s showing at Decatur was very creditable, considering the fact that seven of the eleven men in the lineup had never played before, but there are several glaring defects in the team’s work that must be remedied before the Newcastle game. Newcastle made a splendid record last year and a victory over them will place Portland very high in football circles. The formation of the 1923 schedule has been begun and arrangements have already been made for two games with Tech of Indianapolis and Franklin High school. Tech stands very high in state football circles and the local management is to be congratulated on securing Qie game. Franklin High school has for three years been the state high school champions in basketball and are going to play football for the- first time next year. The Tech game will probably bo played in Indianapolis and the Franklin game here. Everyone is urged to secure tickets during the week for the Newcastle and Decatur games.—Portland Republican.

Farmers and Merchants in Bail Game at Berne Wednesday afternoon will be a great time in Berne when a big baseball game between the farmers and business men of Berne and community will take place. Beside a rousing good game ‘and a lot of fun on the diamond, there will be a band concert by the Berne band and other varied attractions. The purpose of the game is to create a good feeling between the farmers and business men and to meet in a friendly game of baseball. Botl teams will bo composed of ball stars of the present and past days. Some of the old-timers of years ago will be seen in action when they mix with

| the younger athletes. Both teams will have some mighty tine talent und anyI one who enjoys seeing thrills of an athletic nature will do well to be right 1 on hand next Wednesday afternoon. ——<o Attempted to End Her Life By Taking Poison (Continued from page one) ter.
