i j)E would like to ask ManV*/ .ager Huggins of the Yankees a couple of questions which he will never see, and therefore never answer. We have the advantage of him in knowing that the two incidents we have in mind did NOT turn out the way he had hoped. In other words we have the second guess. But just the same, here goes: “Mr. Huggins, why did you let Tony Lazzeri bat in the seventh inning with the bases loaded? He had struck out twice before.” Now, because the New York manager cannot answer for him-* <elf right here we will answer Sir him in the way we think he would reply. “Well, Tony is a good hitter. There was no reason to believe he would fan again, because he struck out twice before.” To this we would reply: “It was a good place for a pinch hitter. When a player starts striking out during a game he is likely to end up the same way. It just is not his day. He can't see ’em. Lazzeri is a young player. He was thinking about those other two strike-outs. •“116 was wondering what he ►uld do the third time with the ses loaded. He was not at ease. There were too many emotions tingling his nervous system. It was the psychological moment for a pinch hitter to face the pinch pitcher, Alexander. “And now, Mr. Huggins, what was that last play of the game for? We refer to the last out made by Babe Ruth, who was* caught stealing second as Meusel swung. Some writers say it was the hit-and-run. Surely that was it. (If Babe went down of his own accord it is he that must he blamed.) And here is Huggins’ reply which can be assumed: “I was gambling everything on one last chance. \Ve put on the hit-and-run In the hope that Meusel would connect. Babe would have tried to score on almost any kind of a hit. \Ve needed one run to tie. Ruth had stolen second once before. He is not a had base runner.” The rebuttal to that argument which seems logical wpuld go something like this: “Mr. Huggins, we set no rear 3 for taking such, a chance. V the world championship a£ sand only one out standing bet (n you and defeat, that out shou . have been left to the man at bat. “No one knows when a long hit is forthcoming. Why tempt fate embodied in an arm like O’Farrell’s? A double would have tied the game. It will never be known what Meusel would

have done. But lie should have had the opportunity to hit. Mr. you took all the worst it on that jast out gamble.” EN a recent article it was stated that the coaches of the Big Ten football teems did not want any outstanding stars on their elevens this year. All of which was a gentle "dig'’ at Red Grange and some others. Team work was to be the watchword, and so on and so forth. All of which is very nice. Such undoubtedly is the aim of every coach. But some dthides .just naturally stick out above their fellows. They’re built that way. They run that way and tackle that way and kick that way. All men are not horn with equal physical ability and skill. AII men ai'e not born with the same perseverance, or whatever it is, that makes them great in a certain line. The haranguer on the corner, if he got his wish of an equal distribution of wealth, likely would be back on his soap box before so very long. Destiny shakos us all up and down and some reach the top while others find different levels. A star is just bound to twinkle —and it is a pleasing sight. Hundreds of thousands enjoy seeing the gridiron variety scintillate. What is really worrying some of the amateur athletic liossps Is that certain mercenary inclined Individuals are taking too great an interest in astronomy and its possibilities in dollars and cents. It is useless to advocate that the luster of the stars he dimmed. SRuit indeed would be too bad, but is no ‘danger: it cannot be Bp. Some other solution to the problem, if it is a problem, must bo found. ♦ * * .i TEN the Lawrenceburg yy llnd.) team and the Har- —■ inony club meet next Sunday at 10 a. m. in the Cincinnati National League park for the championship of the Tv.

SHARKEY, WILLS IN BATTLE Heavyweights Meet in Brooklyn—Negro Favorite Over Boston Youth. Bti United Press NEW YORK, Oct. 12.—Harfy Wills, Negro heavyweight, called by some “the uncrowned champion," hopes to prove his right to the unofficial title tonight when he meets a 24-year-old youth from New England, Jack Sharkey, at Ebbet’s field, Brooklyn, in a fifteen-round bouj. For seven years Wills sought to meet Jack Dempsey in a titular bout, but with that champion's denouement, Wills has again become a possible challenger and his showing tonight either will obliterate a chance to meet Gene Tunney or bring the Negro heavyweight close to demanding a match. Both fighters were confident today of victory. Sharkey, who is twelve years younger than Wills, said he had no doubt he would win. “If 1 beat Wills, Tunney will have to meet me.” the ex-sailor said, "and I'm going to beat Wills. I will knock him out.” The battle is to be a fifteen-round affair at Ebbets field, Brooklyn. Wills today was 8-to-5 favorite. He has an advantage in weight, height and experience. The Negro was likely to weigh in today near 210 pounds; his opponent at 100. He is 6 feet 2 inches: Sharkey just 6 feet. For fifteen years AVills has fought, while the Boston heavyweight has had a scant four years in the ring. SEEKS PILOT Brown Boss Removes Sisler as Club Manager. tin Times Special ST. LOUIS, Oct. 12.—Owner Phil Ball of the St. Louis Browns is casting about for anew club manf.ger. He removed George Sisler, field boss for three years, from the post late Monday. Sisler was unable to put the local American leaguers in the running. Owner Ball said he had received five applications for the open berth and also was considering others. Among the list are George Moriari ty, major league umpire and former Detroit third-sacker: Bill Killefer, battery coach of the St. Louis Cards, and Owen Bush. Indianapolis A. A. manager, who piloted ’ Washington in 1923. It is thought Sisler will be traded to another major outfit.

KOENIG UNNERVED BY CARDINAL TAUNTS

Hu ' nitnl l , rri> . NEW YORK., (Jet. 12.—T0 one youth the world series of 1926 spelled tragedy. The fates elected him to be the goat In the triumph of the iSt. Louis Cardinals over the New York Yankees. Mark Koenig, the Yankee shortstop, playing his first year In the major leagues, mussed up an e&sy chance at a double fclay In the fourth inning of the seventh and final game Sunday and paved the way for the defeat of his teammates. Some of the fans may believe Bob Meusel's miss of a fly ball later in the inning was more disastrous than Koenig's error, but Meusel is an easy going ball player, while Koenig feels things deeply. It is his conviction Diat he alone was responsible for tne Cardinals’ .victory.

Indiana U. at Northwestern, Wisconsin at Purdue, Penn State at N. D. Indiana college football is edging into the important games of the schedule. The season is speeding up. Where before the important games ) were more or less scattered, from [ here on in almost every contest might be called a feature. The two Hoosier Big Ten representatives open their Western Conference season. Purdue stayst home to tackle Wisconsin, while Indiana U. goes to Evanston to meet Northwestern in the first of a two-game series. At South Bend Notre Dame hooks up with Penn State in an intersectional affair. Last year the "Irish” were held to a 0 to 0 tie. Roc-kpe’s outfit is expected to do much better this time. Out at Twin field Butler is expecting some real opposition from Franklin. The locals, however, are the favorites. Various other contests hold their own particular Interest for the schools involved. AT NOTRE DAME SOUTH BEND—With Minnesota safely tucked away in the trophy room. Notre Dame today turned its attention to Saturday's battle with Penn State and prepared to eliminate the memory of a 0-0 tie played at State College. Pa., last year. Rockne Is faced with the problem of finding a tackle to replace Joe Boland, who is out with a broken leg. AT WABASH CRAWFORDSVILLE—State Normal of Terre Haute will be next on ihe program for Pete Vaughan's Little Giants, and Wabash is expecting a rather easy victory. Vaughan will take no chances with the Teachers, however, and plans to have the Scarlet in top shape Saturday. AT PURDUE LAFAYETTE—Facing their first conference game Saturday, when Wisconsin invades Purdue, the Boil ermakers today were working hard in anticipation of a battle royal with the Badger eleven. Only- a light workout was held Monday, but practice started in earnest today. AT INDIAN A BLOOMINGTON Cutting hiu first-string squad to thirty-three. Pat Page started preparations today for the opening of the conference season at Northwestern Saturday. Page went over details of the Kentucky game with the men Monday night, and is hopeful of Diking Northwestern's veteran aggregation into camp ■for a victory Saturday.

State Deaf Squad Plays Badgers

During the next two weeks, in preparation for their trip to Delavan, Wis., to play the Wisconsin School for the Deaf, the Silent I-loosiers representing the Indiana State School for the Deaf, will be at work polishing up on defensive tactics, which in the three games played so far have proved to be weak. The Hoosiers have suffered two 12 to 0 defeats at the hands of Brazil and Anderson High Schools, and in the third game of the season tied with Knightstown H. S. at 13 all. Silent Hoosier followers are elated, however, over the showing of the deaf boys in‘early games. A back field consisting of Downing of, Indianapolis. Poska of Shelbyville and Lawson of Marion, is showing up better than ever before and if Coach Norris can build a forward wall that can withstand heavy line smashes, a winning team later is assured. The remainder of the Silent Hoosier schedule is as follows: Oct. 23, Wisconsin Deaf School, away; Oct. 30, Kirklin H. S.. at home: Nov. 6, Wilkinson H. S., away; Nov. 13, Seymour H. S., away; Nov. 20, Greenwood H. S„ away; Nov. 25, Kentucky School for the Deaf, home. METROPOLITAN PRO GOLF Tourney Starts Wednesday—Many Noted Stars Compete. Bit United Press NEW YORK. Oct. 12.—Pairings for the qualifying round of the first annual metropolitan P. G. A. championship. which starts Wednesday, have been announced. Walter Ha gen and Willie MacFarlane will be two notables missing. MacDonald Smith, Sarazen, Turnesa, Mike Brady, Bobby Cruikshank, Leo Diegel and Johnny Farrell will play. SMITH FOULS CLEIN Bu Times Sneeint CHICAGO, Oct. 12.—Midget Smith, New York feather, fouled Joey Clein, Milwaukee, in the first round, Monday night and was disqualified. Eddie Speaks, Louisville, boxed a six-round draw with Morrie Grans berg, St. Paul.

After the game Koenig sat apart from his fellows, his head in his hands. There were no tears. He was simply numb. Occasionally some one would tell him not to take It so hard, but the youthful shortstop didn't even hear. No doubt he was rehearsing the play over and over in his mind—telling himself what might have happened if he had not fumbled. The Cardinals were told before the series opened that Koenig was the weak point in the Yankee defense. Accordingly they ''rode” him. Whenever the shortstop was retired at first, which was often, the St. Louis players cried; “'Hey, gut less," and other epithets as he walked back to the bench. The "riding" told. During the series he n|ade four errors.

and then I am going to make the attempt of my life to come back. “I am going to go right back into serious training and as soon as I feel ready for a fight I will accept ap offer from any promoter—not against a set-up, but against any fighter that the public thinks would be a good opponent.” “I realized,” Dempsey continued, “after I had been beaten by the good fighter that Gene Tunney is, that I. had made the mistake made by many champions and good fighters lc%ire me—l had remained out of the ripg too long. “I thought that by working most every day in the gym and by working in a lot of exhibition bouts that I could keep myself in shape and I did preserve my physical powers but T lost my timing and rh.v co-ordina-tion.

PROFITS OF PLAY D I VK) ED Each Cardinal Gets $5,584.51, Each Yankee $3,388.28. Bu Times Special NEW YORK, Oct. 12.—Each eligible member of the St. Louis Cardinals, world baseball champs, will receive $5,584.51 as his share of the title series “melon.” Each eligible Yankee player will receive $3,388.28. Leslie O’Connor, secretary to Commissioner Landis, announced the division of prize money Monday night. Members of the second, third and fourth place clubs in both major leagues also received some of the series profits. The 1926 series set records for attendance and receipts, but the series players’ shares were smaller than in 1923 when the Yankees defeated the Giants. Fourth-place teams were not included in the 1923 “spoils.” Added to, that, the Yankees and Cardinals this year cut their prize money into more individual full shares than usual. Secretary O’Connor paid off the Yankees Monday and mailed checks to the Cardinals.
