Champion Batsman Comes Into His Own

Wallie Schang Should Cover Self With Glory in the World's Series

WALUK SCHANG.

PHILADELPHIA. Sept. 19.—At the close of the world's series last fall, when the Athletics beat the Giants in four games out of five played, Connie Mack said of the young man who caught the series for him: "I think Schang is the greatest young catcher that ever broke into the major leagues."

Connie was not gushing when he said that. Schang caught every one of the four wins that made the Athletics the world's champs again and he batted .357. Of his teammates only Eddie Collins and Home-run Baker were able to do better. He got a homer and a triple among other hits and his timely bingles were the big items in at leaBt two of the games. His performance on the whole was scintillating. And it was his first year in fast company.

In 1911 Schang was working for the Pullman company at Buffalo, tacking upholstery on the scats in the sleepers and chair cars. He also played on the Pullman ball team and, in fact, this was the biggest part of his job. He had to learn how to put the velvet on the chairs, but ho already knew a bit about ball playing when he went to the Pullman shops.

It was while Wallie was with the Pullmans that George Stalllngs, then

Garfield Candidate Suffers Broken Arm

The second mishap of the season to Garfield football squad happened Friday evening, when Glen Irwin, one of the line candidates, 'deceived a broken arm. The accident happened when Irwin was blocking the interference and was thrown, falling with his left arm behind him, breaking it just above the elbow. Glen was a new man at the game and his injury will keep him out of the game the rest of the season.

wmv

managing the Buffalo International league team, had sight of him and grabbed him at once. Stalllngs has always had a keen appreciation of good catching talent and young Schang impressed him. After a brilliant season with the Bisons wherein he batted .S34, thirteen big league clubs put in drsfts for him and Connie Mack was the lucky contender. That was in the fall of 1912.

It has been seen how Schang deported himself with the Athletics through the season of 1913. He became a regular almost at once even though there were several other very good catchers on the Athletics' payroll. He displayed ar'.azlng cleverness at pegging to the baBes and few base runners took chances with him. He showed also, as in the world's series, that he does his best work when under a strain. He has always been uiiexcltable and most cool In the pinches.

Schang Is remarkably well proportioned pnyslcally and might be said to have the ideal build for a player. He weighs 180 pounds and is 5 feet, 9Va inches tall. His pleasant and modest manner has won him many friends. Indeed, it has won him a bride. That's a secret, however,' and isn't supposed to be known until after this fall's world's series.

WOLCASI LOSES HOT CONTEST TO MM

Joe's Jabs, Backed-By Clever Defense, Win for Southerner In Furious Bout.

WOLfiAST MAY BATTLE MANDOT AT BALL PARK

John Jensen, local boxing promoter, is in Milwaukee today Keeking to moich Ad Wolgast, exworld's champion, and Joe Mundot, southern champion, who liattled ten furious rounds at the cream city last night, for a ten-round contest at Athletic park early next month. Jensen vras at the ringside last night and witnessed the ltout, whlfh was one of the fastest ever staged in aiilwaukce. He went to the scene of battle intending to natch Wolgast and Mandot should they pat up a good scrap. That they did is evident from the various newspaper reports of the match, and Terre Hante fistic fans will likely be given a chance to aee two great llghlvreights in ietl*n In a local arena.

'MILWAUKEE, Wis., Sept. 19.—Clever attack and an equally clever performance at defensive fighting enabled Joe Mandot, of New Orleans, to beat Ad Wolgast, former lightweight champion, so far last night that if a decision had been permitted it would have gone to the southorn champion.

Mandot won with left stabs, right swings and uppercuts. He met the "Michigan Bearcat" every time the latter advanced, leading a left stab, which ctraightened Ad out of his shell for the right swing that followed. Many of Mandot'a blows failed to reach, for which they were intended because Wolgast covered hia jaw with his left glove.

Draw Rounds Best for Ad. There were only a few times that Wolgast landed on Mandot's head with r.ny great force. Once In the third round and again in the fifth he reached the southerner's head with left swings, and he followed up tHfeae punches in good style which enabled him to earn an even break on these rounds.

All of the other rounds, the first, second, fourth, sixth, seventh, eighth, nir.th and tenth, were Mandot's by indisputable margins.

In the last three rounds Wolgast showed the effects of the gruelling by slowing up, and when the final gowg sounded he v. as a tired boy, while Mandot left the ring with all kinds of spiring In his etep. There was nothing resembling a knockdown and little blood flowed. In the fifth round Wolgast spit, gore from his talker, but that was alL

Crowd of 3,000 Sees Bout. That fight fans are experiencing the effect of "tight money" was apparent when a count of noses In the house was taken. An estimate of 3,000 fans •would be liberal, and Dreamland's capacity is few over 4,000. In the crowd were many women fans who did not hesitate to root for their favorites.

Before Wolgast and Mandot crawled through the ropes a challenge to get the winner was read from Champion Lightweight Freddie Welsh. Charley White, a ringsider, immediately'stated that Welsh was overlooking him.

Wolgast and Mandot weighed in at 3 o'clock, the notch being 133 pounds. Mandot was f.ist to enter the ring ut 9:40 o'clock: He soon was followed by Wolgast. The "Bearcat" was cheered wildly, as he ir, popular In Milwaukee.

Among the prominent members of the boxing fraternity at the ringside were Joe Rivers, of California Bat Nelson, "Knockout" Brown, and lesser celebrities.

MANDOT ASKS DIVORCE.

CHICAGO, Sept. 19.-—Joe Mandot, the lightweight pugilist, who met Ad Wol-

for

ast In Milwaukee last night, filed ault divorce in the superior court yesterday against Mrs. Sarah Mafldot, charging statutory charges. The bill sets forth that the complaintant married the defendant Sept 21. 1912. James Coldin is named in'the bill.

Johnson Citizen of U. S.

LONDON, Sept. 19.—Giving the lie to f.tories that he has taken out Frcnch naturallaat'on papers, Jack Johnson visited the Amer'can embassy Friday to make It known that he is a citizen of the United States, after which he received a passport to travel in Russia.

Johnson was severely cross-examined but persisted he had never even dreamed of expatriating himself and denounced as a newspaper invefition the statement he was a Frenchman, lie showed a passport obtained from the American ambassador in Paris six months ago. He was in Russia a few weeks ago, then in Berlin and Paris, whencs he came to London.

Johnson drove up to the embassy in a big limousine, accompanied by his wife, her maid, manager, and trainers. The only other negro in the party was Jack's spa.rring partner. He is going to Russia to fill theatrical engagements which were entered upon long ago.
