, Mr. Franklin C. Letts. Mrs. Franklin C. Letts, of Cincinnati, the woman's western eolf champion, who recently defended her title in competition with Miss Elaine Rosenthal, the 1915 titleholder, proves that strength and muscle arc not the prime requisites of a golf champion. Mrs. Letts ia of rather slight build and does not stroke the ball vrith great force. Her accurate timing, as well as her rare sense of distance and direction, av her a great deal of energy.

Mini's GOSSIPY STUFF ABOUT SPOUTS ST H. C. HAMXZ.TOX. (I'nlted Prens Staff Correapoodent.) NEW YOP.K. Sept. 14. Old veterans, tried in their places men who have learned th; game and haven't forgotten it are the reasons for Pat Moran's success year aftr year with his Phillies. Starting each season with a team that scarcely figures as strong as sr"r. of the other?, Moran is always able to pive the best of the league a stiff fight. This year, while he hasn't been close enough to seriously worry the Giants, he has been pounds alonaf behind, ready at any time to spring out and tear down the McGraw predominance. Fat Is th kind of a manager who would rather have the tried veterans than the flashy, chance-taking youngsters. Nearly every man on the Phildclphia club Is a man who has played the game for years. Starting in at first base there is found a man who got bis first crack at the National league when Frank Chancy was guiding the Cubs, and CALL AND GET ONE. WE HAVE ALL SIZES. Hammond, Ind.

it ! that was several seasons ago. John Evers has been doing most of the second basing for Moran, and the world knows he is an old timr. Bert Niehoff has done the rest of it. and the pin feathers long ago left Bert. Milton Stock was a member of the Giants when they won their last pennant. The pitching staff is the newest part of the whole club, and no one ever has been heard to accuse Grover Alexander of being a youngster that is. no In recent years. Oeschger and Rixey are comparatively new. but both have been up there, several years. Mayer and Lavender are two of the league's oldest flingers. Bill Killifer was rated a star and a veteran when he pulled .iff his famous double leap to the Feds md back again. Eddie Burns is a newcomer, but gets little to do, and Adams is mainly a bullpen workman. In the outfield George Whitted. a member of ths Braves when they won their world's championship; Garvy Cravath, who lfs growing old fast, and Dode Faskert, a relic of baseball, perform. But those old boys can hit the ball, they can thin fast and straight and they can field well enough to make the youthful ones step lively. Bancrott is the only notioeable youngster on the team and he Jits In mighty well.HALT SCALPERS CHICAGO. Sept. 14. If the White Sox win Uie American League pennant local ticket scalpels are assured of at ieaft one good customer from the world's series ?ames. He will be President Charles Comiskey. The head of the club, which will carry Chicago's colors into the post-season battles, will buy from pasteboard pirates all the tickets he can lay his hands on. Hr won't haggle over the price, either, and in addition will see to it that the names of the original purchasers of the tickets get the rrrper publicity. ' The above is Mr. Comiskey's answer to the report that the scalpers have laid their plans to corner the tickets for the world's series. The boss of the Sox got his first tip yesterday. It didn't take him long to decide on a campaign of his own. "I have heard that in the advent of my team winning the rennant the scalpers expect to reap a harvest during the world's series here," said the Old Roman. "Well, I am ready for therr, but I hope that the fans will aid me. We are going to take the name and address of every man who occupies a box seat. Then if any of the tickets got into the hands of scalpers we will know who furnished them. I shall then go out and buy all the seats I can get hold of." ACTIVE PRACTICE TO START MONDAY GREENCASTLE, IND.. Sept. 14. Ali though the football men at DePauw are I reporting, active practice will not open ! before Monday, E. C. Buss, athletic di- ' rector, said yesterday. Some of the men are on the grounds now and others will bo coming during the week, and by i Monday enough men are expected to ' start active work. VS o
