Nearly Every Member of the Team Has Been On Pennant Winning Club at Some Time.

30ME HAVE SEEN SEVERAL,

ivtaranville, Tyler and Joe Connolly Will Have First Experience This Year—Club Knows How

Stand "Gaff."

One of the reasons why the Boston feraves are a winning ball club Is bepause the club Is composed of winners. .•"Ah,"' you say, "that Is where you Mpulled a boner. Who ever heard of f$I3oston winning in the National league?" It's .admitted that you have to hark quite a distance to remember anything of that sort. But the Boston Braves were recruited from winners just the same.

There are fourteen men on that team who have been with pennant winners at feme time during their lives. True, fiome of them may have been with wlnners in the minor leagues. But what are the odds? They fight just as hard for the flags in the small leagues as they do in the majors.

Maybe the fact that this Boston club is composed of a bunch of winners had something to do with the fact that it did not explode in the pinch. You see the men had been through the mill, they had indulged in championship .'Ifights and they knew what it meant.

Some of the men on the Boston team spent but a lone year with a winner snd others have assisted in the capture of as many as four flags.

There is John Evers, for instance. He was with the Cubs when they were winners in 1906, 1907, 1908 and again In 1610.

Iornn Sees Fonr.

This little Moran, recently secured from the Cincinnati Reds, is another who has been present when four flags were captured. He was with Dubois in the Interstnte when the citizens of that place celebrated the capture of the flag in 1907. The fans of Atlanta will remember him well, for he was instrumental in grabbing the bunting of the Southern association for that city In 1 !i09. Likewise will the citizens of Rochester, in the Interstate league, be pulling for him, for he has assisted in winning the pennant for that city In 1910 and 1911.

Mitchell, the veteran coach and catcher, knows what it is to win pennants, for he has been with three teams that fnished on top—Athletics, in 1912 Toronto, in 1907, and Rochester, in 1911. He was a member of both teams.

There are o^uite a number of the "Braves who have seen a pair of pennants captured. There Is Dick Rudolph, the pitcher, for Instance. He was with Toronto when that city finlshed first in the International In 1907 and again In 1912. _Jf Then there is Josh Devore, who was with the Giants in 1911 and 1912. Llkewiee do we call attention to Otto Hess,

I who will be young only when he attains his second childhood. Otto assisted New Orleans in the fat years of 1910 and 1911, when they were pennant winders. ^Crutcher, who pitches, occasionally.

J&&Q „has helped to win"1 a couple of "flags. Ho was with Frankfort In the yBlue Grass association, when The Kenlucky city was honored with a pennant in 1908, and did more than his share to win the pennant of the Western association for Enid in 1909.

Several Figure In One.

There are several Boston gents of renown who have assisted In the winning of one pennant. There is .Tames, the big pitcher, for example. His spitball was good enough to carry the Seattle team to the front in the Northwestern league in 1912. While James Vjwas holding the other fellows, Mann, -then, as now, a teammate, was doing his best to drive in the winning runs.

The two were together when that Seattie pennant was won. Schmidt, the big first baseman, has to go back quite a bit to prove himeelf a pennant winner, but he qualifies all right. He was with the Baltimore club when the Orioles won the flag in the International in 390S.

Johnny Evers' understudy, Dugey, also qualifies. It was the victory of the New Orleans club in 1910 that gave him this honor.

Such shining lights as Maranville and Tyler and Connolly cannot boast that fhey ever were with pennant winners, ibut they have hopes. They figure they twill be able to join the. ranks along

Jbout Tuesday or Wednesday if everyhhig progresses nicely.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Sept. 29.—Jimmy Anderson, the hard hitting local lightweight, will leave for an extensive fghting tour In Australia early in Noveniber. Dave Anderson, a brother of the boxer, who has beon doing his match making, completed arrangements for the trip with Joe Sullivan, of Chicago, agent for an Australian promoter, •^etterday.

He stopped Jimmy McGovern, of Chicago, in short order, and then gave Joe Sherman a great battle for ten rounds. The bout with Serman generally was called a draw, but Anderson put his adversary down for the count of nine once and many gave the Indianapolis boy the better of the milling.

WIN A MAN'S FAMOUS HIS TROUBLES BEGIN

For two season Paul Fittery worked for the Evansville baseball club, pitching baseball left-handed and in a manner that brought down upon him the attention of the ivory hunters of the big league. Paul was sold and all over the land there began to leak out news of his left-handed ability. As long as Paul remained in Evansville and with Birmingham no one heard of his family affairs. If he was married he did not take the trouble to advertise the fact and Friend Wife kept quiet. But Paul began pitching for the Reds and went from town in town in the big show and his fame grew. On his first visit to Philadelphia he was presented with an affidavit from Mrs. Fittery calling attention to a charge known as "nonsupport" The wife lives In Lebanon, Pa., and the warrant could not be served outside the state. The trial has been postponed until November. As Rube Marquard truthfully said, "We southpaws have our troubles."—Evansville Journal-News.

North Enders Seem Strong

By "Hank" West.

With the execption of a few bruises all of the Garfield high pig-skin chasers came out of Saturday's encounter with Poly In good shape and resumed practice Monday evening. Coach Clogston gave out some new formations and sent the squad through a brisk signal drill, after which the scrubs were put up against the varsity eleven' in about fifteen minutes of scrimmage. The regulars tried mostly open plays and forward passes.

Although the purple and white warriors showed considerable speed in the initial tussle, it Is Coach Clogston's plan to drive the men on signal and formation work with the idea of speed, from now until the next game. With the second team furnishing some opposition the regulars clipped off nearly eight plays the minute in Monday's workout. By the time of the first game, which Is October 10, Clogston expects to have the plays running at the rate of twelve a minute.

Both the straight and open field football tactics will be used by the north end huskies this season. With a strong line and a hard hitting backfleld the Garfield lads should find no trouble In gaining many yards on straight football. Both the ends and backfield men are good in getting under the passes, so this department will be used considerably. The kicking part of the game is well looked after, with Tlnglev in the lineup. Besides being a consistent drop kicker. "Bill" is an excellent punter, being able to boot the spirals on the average of about forty-five yards.

Jimmy Anderson is Going to Australia

EDDIE MURPHY.

Though Eddie Murphy doesn't rank with the best batters on the Philadelphia American league team, he is nevertheless one of Connie Mack'B most valuable men. He plays In the right field. He is fast, clever and there in pinch. He has a batting average of !69.

Though Eddie Murphy is not related to Danny Murphy, last year's captain of the Athletics, the two look very much alike and both play In 'the same position. Danny Murphy is now with the Brooklyn Feds.

LOBERT MAY MANAGE PHILLIES NEXT YEAR

PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Sept. 29.—It was announced in baseball circles today that unless there is an unlooked-for hitch, John B. Lobert, third baseman of the Philadelphia National league baseball club, would be made manager of the club at a meeting of the directors of the organization to be held this week. The contract of Charles S. Dooin, who has managed the Philadelphia team for several years, expires with the close of the present season.

Lobert has been with the local team since 1911 when he figured In a big trade between the Philadelphia and Cincinnati clubs.

WILLIAM AND DIRECTUM READY. I

Pacers Expected to Make Fast Time at Columbus Tomorrow. COLUMBUS, O., Sept. 29.—Over the Columbus grand circuit track, admitted to be the fastest in the world, the twominute pacing stallions, William and Directum I., will struggle Wednesday afternoon. William won last Thursday at Grand Ranids in time so slow that another opportunity was desired. The manager of Directum I. Contends that nis horse can win in a suitable track. So, with an offer of $5,000 made hv the Columbus association, there was no trouble In coming to an agreement for the Wednesday test, that should pro duce miles below 2:00, the time rr.ade by each horse in actual racing this season. In addition to this ex traordlnary cpeclal event, the regular racing card for Wednesday' will be a rich one. Champion Peter Volo will be a starter in the American Horsebreedcrs' futurity for three-year-old trotters.

HERZOG IS SUSPENDED.

Red Manager Said to Have Sent an "Insulting Telegram." PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Sept. 29—B Herzog, manager of the Cincinnati Reds, was indefinitely suspended Mon day by President Tener because of an "insulting telegram" received at the executive office of the league in New York from the Cincinnati manager

Herzog was suspended for thre~e days as the result of an altercation with an umpire in Boston, when it was sa'd he used unbecoming language. This suspension, it is alleged, caused him to send the telegram to Secretary Heydler

Governor Tener, who was in this city last night, stated that Herzog will remain under suspension until he has made a suitable apology.

'TWIXT LOVE AND DUTY.

The Boston Red Sox are In a curious position, between love and duty, as It were. Tliey still have a set of gnmes to pltty against the Athletic*, and the Boston papers nre urgin them to Agist their hardest, so that the Athletics won't have chance to rest up during the last few days previous to the series with the Braves. That puts the Red Sox in on odd predicament. Should they be governed by love of Ronton or of the Amerienn leaguer Should they trj to help the Braves, so as to advance the glory of Boston, or should they try to help the Athletics, so that the American league may hog the laurels again 7

INDIANA.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind., Sept. 29.—When the Indiana practice waa started on Jordan field this afternoon It was noticed that Head Coach Childs had made a number of shifts in the lineup that played against DePauw Saturday. Voss was moved from center to a guard position and Redmond from tackle to guard. Zaring. who has been holding down an end, was shifted to a tackle position, and Allen from guard to tackle.

Frenzle, a new man, reported today and looks like a "find." He was a basketball star on the varsity and will trv out for a tackle position. There was Joy in the camp last night when it was learned that Laduron, the hefty tackle of the freshman squad last year, had arrived. It had been reported that Laduron wouid not return to school. He weiehs 190 pounds.

Coaches Childs and Berndt gave the men a long drill on the klckofc. Coaches Shafer, Hill and Davis worked -with the linemen, while Frank "Rab" Hare showed the two Ereharts, Whitaker, Decker and Krause how to do the dropkicking stunt. Hare was a quarter on the famous eleven of '07. He probably was the fastest man that ever wore the crimson colors and was one of the greatest drop-kickers that ever played on an Indiana team.

NOTRE DAME.

SOUTH BEND, Ind., Sept 29.—The injury list seemed to have a depressing effect on the Notre Dame varsity In its scrimmage with the freshmen, lack of fierht being noticeable. "Captain Jones has been kept out of the heavy work by a disabled hand. His injury, however, is not serious and, without doubt, "Deak" will be able to lead his men in the opening game against Alma Saturday. Mills, who has been occupying Rocknc's place at end, has not reported for practice, owing to a hip injury received early last week. After the first few minutes of play Saturday, Eichenlaub was forced to retire with a sprained knee. "Eich" declares, however, that his injury is only trivial. Larkin, too, is disabled, and Finnegan arid H. O'Donnell are both laid up v,ith sprained backs. Daly, last year's freshman center, has sustained the most serious injury of all. A broken arm will likely keep htm off the field for the rest of the season.

DE PAUW.

GREENCASTLE, Ind., Sept. 29.—Although somewhat disheartened over the outcome of Saturday's game with Indiana, the Methodists already have forgotten the contest and are looking forward to the setto with Coach Yost's •Wolverines tomorrow. All efforts of Boerle .ma his men will be to hold Michigan to a low score, not even dreaming that they can make the showing1 that they did agair.s* Indiana. After the

THINKS BRAVES WILL WIN

"I am perfectly confident," said Johnny Evers, captain of the Boston Braves, "that we shall beat out the Athletics. I don't care a hoot about the betting odds. What if they are offering 3 to 1? Remember the Cuba and White Sox in 1906? Nobody would risk a cent on the Sox, and the only critic who picked the Sox to win didn't print his 'prediction' till a wek after the series ended. There never yet was a ball team that couldn't be beaten, and I believe the Athletics are destined to receive the one biggest surprise of their lives."

PURDUE.

LAFAYETTE, IncU, Sept. 29.—In the practice contest Saturday on Stuart field, Head Conch Smith, of Purdue, was able to pick the men who worked well "under fire." This week will be spent in finding weak places and developing plays for the Wabash game. Smith is not underestimating the strength of the Little Giants, realizing that Coach Thurber had the advantage of having charge of the workouts long before the conference rules would permit the. "big nine" coaches to take charge of their teams.

Purdue supporters are not expecting a large score Saturday, but will be satisfied to win from their neighbors by one or two touchdowns. Applegate, who is being tried out at fullback, is exceeding all expectations and if he continues to improve, undoubtedly will be used to complete the varsity back field. In practice he never failed to make first down and twice ran through the entire second team. Turner is back at his end position, having been out of the game with a sprained ankle, wh:le Blorker has been shifted from guard to his old position at left tackle. 'With Bishop at center, Routh at guard and Stinchfield at end, the Purdue line is practically composed of varsity material, with the exception of Cecil at guard and Borum at tackle, who are well able to take care of themselves.

BUTLER

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Sept. 29.—A squad which was probably the largest that has appeared for Monday practice at Butler in years was on Irwin field yesterday afternoon to learn several new open formations which the coaches expect to try out in the game against Georgetown university here next Saturday. Owing to the bruises suffered by most of the men in the game against a picked team last Saturday, scrimmage was not engaged in yesterday.

Perkins, substitute fullback last year, and the most promising candidate for that position this year, whose knee was injured in a scrimmage last week, is still on the hospital list, and, according to the statement of the doctor, will riot be out for several weeks. This has left a hole in the back field and it has been giving the coaches some little worry.

WABASH

CRAWFORDSVILLE, Ind., Sept. 29.— Coach Thurber drove the Little Giants through the hardest practice of the season this afternoon. He has just a week to get the team he will U3e against Purdue next Saturday into shape. That Wabash has no chanca of beating Purdue Is conceded by the scarlet fans. They hope, however, to hold the Boilermakers to a low score. There is a scarcity of material and Coach Thurber faces a hard t£sk. It

is certain that there will be many changes in the lineup after the game, when the promising freshmen become eligible.

Coach Thurber has the entire squad af.scmbled every night in the gymnasium for an hour of blackboard practice. This is the way that the coach gives the men new formations and trick plays. By this method much time is saved on the field.

Old field Sued for $60,000.

LOS ANGELES, Cal.. Sept. 29.—Barney Oldfield, automobile speed king, added a new record to his string today when a suit charging him with having broken seven city ordinances at one time was filed against him. It also was charged that the speed king struck a man on a motorcycle while traveling at the "snail's pace" of thirty miles an hour. Oldfield Is asked to pay ?60,000. Chris Rlnghousen is the plaintiff in the suit, and he avers that Barney not only ran him down but also swore at him. The damages are divided into a demand for $25,000 for personal injuries, $25,-' 000 for being attacked, and $10,000 for injured elings from being called names.
