With ini tial football practice only ten days off. authorities it Vanderbiit are putting: Dudley Field in shape, hauling out the old bucking machine, rigging up the tackling dummy and taking the jerseys and other paragphernalia out of moth f Under the new order of things . at Vanderbiit, Assistant Head Coach Wal lace Wade is custodian of equipment 1 and this means that the usual waste in ' cident to the opening of football prae 'tice will not be in evidence this year. The seating capacity of Dudley Field, 'which will be utilized for the last lime this season, will be slightly increased in order to accommodate the greatly increasing attendance which was in evi dence in 1020. Everything will be in readiness when first practice starts September 12. Cleveland. Sept. 3. Some managers develop young ball players very well, itiey Beem to have the faculty not only of discerning the good in the boy who is starting, but of bringing it out. Oth er managers will take ball players of brilliant individual attainment ind wtld intMi togetner so as to and finished result Tris Speaker appears to have a 'dif ferent faculty from any of them. He takes ball players who couldn't get along and makts winners out of them. He is a manager and coacher of tem perament as much as instructor in physical skill and how to apply it. After all. it is probable that a man ager who has moat of that typo in him is the greatest of managers. Some tall teams are r.ot hard to make iV.ay baseball. There have been -.earns vhich needed the manager only that they might have one upon whom they could fall back for an alibi or an exeus-i one; in a while. For the greater part of the time such a team played its own baseball without much real help from the bench. It l rd to hive a boss and he kept the fear of domination in the hearts of the weaker. There are other teams that have been driven to success. Thev are com paratively few and they almost always have had to be teams whose phvsical skill was or the highest type. " The manager had to direct it." A t.-an: trucker mentally than another a championship if its plavers chanically .skilful and afraid of their manager. Not afraid in the- sense that they ere physical cowards, but afrail to play the game except as he directs ir. They will r.ot assume personal res-ior.si-bility at any time. In f.i-t, the time comes whin thev ar net fitt-.-d to as sume it. They hav n'i tt.c plu: and the courage to do so. Bl HNS A SUCCESS Sot-alter rcok Burns, for instance, and kept him on the Cleveland team tj pl-y first base pgainst left-hand pi cbers. Whether or not you like the idea of having a right handed an 1 left handed team, it is certain that Burns has been a success over since both Detroit and the Athleties permitted him to warder forth from them. Not a few thought that Speaker's team of left handed pitchers in the Rallies which were played against Brook lyn in the world series was a. better baseball nine than his team which play ed against the right handed pitchers. Burns played first base against the left banders. He was as "fast and clever about the bag as Johnston. Jamieson was picked up from the Washington club when they seemed to think that he was only so-so as an outfielder. They did not want him. Speaker took him, and while there may be outhelders who will pass on with greater reputations than that which is lo be made by Jamieson you can't say that he dees not play good baseball. He helped to win a world series for his team after he had helped to win the championship of bis league. Look at Ray Caldwell. A good pitch er, passed down the line first by one and then by anofl er becaus? he couldn't resist. Speaker did something to him that made him a winner, and he got one success after another out of him. This year Caldwell started slowly. He has been in a long time and it was na tural that he should start slowly,, out look what ho does every now and then. He comes through with a game which moans so muchto Cleveland. A team that is being hard pressed, as Cleve land is being pressed now, wants every fractional ounce of mental energy and physical effort that it can procure. Johnston, the other first baseman, hasj been engaged and let go and brought back, and he has played first base so well that he holds his own 1 .yt-U 4"' th. -;dfeiW8r iif .

New York, Sept. 3 Between now and me enu ot September, there will be ! much local gossip and all kinds and degrees of excitement about, the world' s series. Starting from nothing, except an overwhelming dousing of public inter est and fairly good backing, this series has developed into the greatest money-team-athletic scramble, if that com pound descriptive phrase may be per mitted to stand, of any event in thc L'nited States, probably in the world. It may be interesting to know tiu-.t the series was most bitterly fought when it was proposed. The writer 's not referring to the refusal of John T. Brush to play a p ..st-season series wi.h Boston in 1904, which was a purely local affair, but to the oppositi li which came from conservative baseba'l man in the winter of 1904 and tiij spring of 1905, when the world series was beginning to assume a definite or bit in the baseball firmament. The greater part of the opposition came from the conservatives of the Na tional League. Some came also from those who had supported the National League for years as an organization, and were admirers of certain of its pol icies. As it became apparent that a world series would be urged by a faction i.i the National League, John T. Brush, wno naa a cnampionship team m New ago.

New Y'ork, Sept. 3. It seems a long leap from early September to next Jan uary and from New Haven to Califor nia, already there is a big effort being made to bring the football teams of the University of California and Yal3 to gether at the Carnival of Roses at Pasadena. Also, it is iearned i"-.at an arangement, which would bring the Yale team to the Leland Stanford Sta ium, would be received with rousing cheers by Pacific residents. It must be a con solation to Y'ale men to realize that their defeats of the last de ;aie have not entirely wiped away their prestige. In discussing the proposed arrange ment, one of the California football ex ports writes: "There is magic in thu word 'Yale to us in California. We remember what an influence it had on the old teams of California and Stanford through Lee McClung; Walter Canip. who gave Stanford the great Yale system, and later Heffolfinger and Gill." If a Calif ornia-Y'ale game were to take place, it would be a great int-rscc-tional contest and 1'ale would -li.-d'one of her old-time teams to tackl. with any hope of success, the organization which Andy Smith has been liui'.'r g up at Berkley for the last few yeir. i Andy had little luck when he went to ' the coast as a coach five or six years GIANTS BARELY MISS THE LEAD Lack Only One Point Now of Having Pirates in a Tieup.

EVANS A CONVERTED FIELD Eli There was a time when Evans was heard of only as an infielder. No one ever creamed that he would make I aiv outfielr-er. Speaker decided, per i haps, that he ne er would make an in fielder, and put him in the outfield. In any event he made Evans part of his plan of using a (banged outfield aga-.nst different styles of pitching, and Evans plays left field when the right hand pitchers work against Cleveland, as Wood plays the right field Side of the meadow at the same time. Speaker must be given credit lor bringing this out. Other managers had the same opportunity but they did not see it as he did. The tact that he was clever in doing it is indicated by the fact that he had quick imitators. When he suc ceeded in some of his efforts, other man agers experimented along the same Hnes, although not all of them with the same results. It doesn't pny to copy a man like Speaker. He has ideas of his own, which are working deeper than the mere placing of a player in this position or that. He has a notion of team strength in him and plays his team steadily against the other fellow's, pro viding, of course, that the other fellow has a team and not a scattered col lection of stars or mediocrities, as the case happens to be. Frank Selee, who didn't play ball at all, could sit on the players' bench and inspire his men to do things that a playing manager could not inspire. Se lee had a manner of impressing the player w-ith the idea that he was a little smarter than any other player on the other team. He got his players en vious of the work of other players. If the shortstop of the visiting team hap pened to make a good play Herman Long would sit next to Selee and hear a quiet voice seemingly addressing no one in particular, "What do you think of that? There's a fellow trying to pull some of Long's good work." Long wrould go out the next inning and play his head off if anything gave him a chance to do so. That was one way that Selee had of handling his men. They used to give him trouble enough, some of them. Another man ager, not of the Selee type, will sit on the bench and bark at his players all of the afternoon. "Do this, and do that," until the player with his mind full of different things that he has been told to do at six different times, will try to do all of them at once with the usual result. 19 iimmnaiiAfli7! g 11 Era - b a i "SPSS?

HOW THEY LINED UP IN DAYS OF 1909 The team-mates they once fought side by side with have passed from the game. Let us take, a look at . the Pirate champions of 1909. Trrey lined un as follows: Abstein. lb.; Miller, 2b.; Byrne, 3b. o.f.; Wagner, ss.;.

Six years previous to the heyday of the above team the Pirates of 1903 cop perl the National League pennant and battled the Bostons in the Fall classic. The team boasted, the following players: Bransfield, lb.; Ritchey, 2b.; Leach, Sb.: Wagner, ss.; Clarke, o.f.; Beaumont, o.f.; Sebring. o.f.; Phelps, c; Smith, c; Phillippe, p.; Leeveh, p.; Vail, p.;;; Ken nedy, p. and Thompson, p. Today 1he Pkates represent a much made-over team with a combination of youngsters and f tasoijed veterans, some of whom, have seen service on several ether major league clubs. Wagner, the great flying Dutchman, has been gone several seasons. In his olace Rabbit Maranville, the pepper box from the Boston Braves, who has helped Gibby and the Babe make a winner of the club. Then there is Whitted, Dave Robinson and Cutshaw, all of whom have worn other uniforms and all of whom are doing their bit for the Pirates ' this year. Pittsburgh may well be proud' of her team. It is a game and brainy outfit and it has earned the en viable position it holds in the baseball stage. It is a team that never enter tains the possibility of defeat and is never beaten until the last man is out. Sport Snap Shots Heavyweight Jack Dempsey may de rive some good Irom all the bitterness that has been shown toward him. Be cause of his unpcr.ularity Dempsey will beJ forced to; pursue an active career in the ring instead of spending most of his time and ruining his ability as a fighter by picking up easy money on the stage, in the movies or with a cir cus.

If Dempsey's enemies wish his ruin they should make a nublic idol of him before the footlk hts and make lit" pleasant that he would no longer care to go through the laborious perform ance of training to defend his title. Then his downfall would be sure and his reign a short one. As matters st nd, Dempsey's enemies are doing more tor him than a fighter's friends can ever do. The very fact that so many persons are rooting for his downfall will spur him on. The only satisfc ction left to him is the pleas ure of confounding his critics by con tonuing to win and he will try just that much harder. Demps?y has a much better chance of a long reign as champion than any of his predecessors, from Corbet's dry down to the present time. . Sullivan held the title for ten years despite tin handicap of his great popularity and mode of living, but that was entirely because of the fact that there were no live contenders. Most of the other champions did not last long. Soft living and idleness made them easy prey for better trained men. Corbett defended the title suc cessfully orly once and then his oppo nent was a broken-down middleweight, Charley Mitchell. Fitzsimmons lost the crown in his first battle in its defence after an absence of two years from the ring. Jeffries was an exception to the rule. Jeff kept right on fighting after taking the title away from Fit2simmons, and as long as he remained active in the ring he was invincible. He was a joke when he returned after years of idleness. Johnson met no formidable opponents betw-jen the time he beat Jeffries and his defeat by Jiss Willard or he prob ably would not have latsted as long as he did. Willard defended the title only once before he lost it to Demp sey. If Willard had taken up boxing earlier in life and had kept on fight ing instead of traveling around with a circus he might have been the most formidable of all the heavyweight cham pions. Willard was not a great boxer when compared with fast little men like Corbett, but for a man of his tre mendous proportions he was a wonder. Willard was so powerful that the hard est blows did not bother him at all. He took everything that Johnson had in stock and mwer .showed a trace otf dis tress at any time. Even after he had grown old and soft and fat after years of idlness he was so tough that Demp sey could not keep himn the floor al though Jack punched himself into a state of exhaustion, battering the big fellow's body and jaw. Dempsey still is a young man and he still has much to learn about the art of fighting. He should continue to improve for the next two or three j years and then go o i for two or three i more. That is unless the feeling against him at present is forgotten and tha hero worshippers begin to make much of him. "With idleness will come his down fall, for Jack is a fighter who depends On condition and strength rather than skill. Johnson, only half trained, could stall through a bout by using his headwork and defensive skill, but Demp sey will not have a chance once his condition gives out. . the position of preparing for the se ries in part by the press of New Y'ork city, which took the ground that an inter-league series in 1904 had been de nied the metropolis because the man ager ot the .New York team personal v was antagonistic to Ban Johnson, which was quite true. Brush prepared the rules and an nounced his intention of submitting them to the National League. A recent interesting development is the knowledge of the fact that a ec tain powerful baseball man wrote to Brush at that time in effect as follows: "This series will subordinate league championships until they become by words. "It will destroy the prestige of :h2 National League, if a National League club loses, more than it will that of the American League because the Na tional League is the older organiza tion. "It will tend to " bargains among players such as were suspected in the double season of 1892. "It will give the suspicious minds of the public ground for charging jockey ing in the race toward the close of tho season, though everyone of us may know that such is not the case. "It will establish nothing of merit because it is no better than an exhibi tion series between two clubs of dif ferent leagues. There is no test of season's strength in a world series. "It will lead ultimately to the prac tice of betting and, in my opinion, to betting on a large scale. It is folly to say that we have no betting to speac of now and cite that as a fair com parison for what may be expected. Re member that this is an equivalent of a horse race conducted by heats, ir that description may be taken, and gives every opportunity for betting and speculation. "It is likely to lead to a scandal in the national game of proportions which will be difficult of punishment because neither league will submit to dictation by the other'" The gentleman of baseball, who thus places himself on record in his own cramped penmanship and who is alive today, was not the only one who op posed the world series and most of the s0 j arguments against it were based c:i Brush finally changed the rules to be bv St. Mary's and Oregon, but all was forgiven this last year when his team showed such splendid work and overwhelmed Ohio State, the Middle-west conference cham pions, at Pasadena. BOOST TO ATTENDANCE Now just a word about the effect this high-class football team -is having upon attendance at the university. Th-?y had a big football rally out there a. short time ago and, when they came to inquire into the prep schools of the men present, they found a. wide section-1 al range. There were representatives. I from Union High school, Chicago; Hast- ings-on-the-Hudson, New Y'ork high school, Tampa Normal. Missouri Mili tary Academy, Kentucky Military In stitute, Wasatch Academy, Salt Lake City, Dallas, Texas, High School and Tulsa, Okla., high school. Of course, neaiiv all the California schools were included. Before we know it. Andover, Exeter, St. Marks, 'Groton, Hotchkiss, Hill, Mercerburg and a lot of others will be sending their boys out to the Pacific coast to finish their education. P"ew men 4er faced a squad of such satisfactory tootball material as Andy Smith and his assistant coaches, Rosen thal, Price and Gordon, have this year, for California lost few stars through graduation. The loss felt is that of Pesky Spratt, who, however, is coming back to coach the freshmen team. Brick Miller, who made a big reputation at end. can be played at most anywhere. Berkey, at the other end in 120, will be another, and there are two good sub-ends in Stevents and Engelbreth en. Erbe, the little 10-pound quarter, will steer the team again and is ex pected to put an about ten pounds more weight. Smith is comfortably off with Hunt ers, Morrison, Nesbit, Bells and Toom ev as backfield possibilities, while Clarke, Cranmer, McMillan, Barnes and Lleen probably will fill gaps in the line, Captain Latham will continue to pass the ball back at center. Watch Dean, he is a comer. The outlook for strong teams at both Washrington and Oregon is, reported to be better than last year. BRAVES SPLIT TWO. Philadelphia, Sept. 3.
