SHUTOUT RECORD
BADLY BROKEN
Chicago Cubs Lead All Others
in Letting Opponents Down
Without a Run.

All major league records for shut
outs were broken in the National
League this year. with a total of 1853
The innovation introduced by the old
league this year of reducing the second
half of a double-header to seven in
nings or less was responsible for some
OF these record-breaklng snut-outs. as
sixteen of them were of seven innings
duration or less. and occurred in the
last third of the season. after the cur
tailed double-headers began.
without that Increment, however
the number of shut-outs would have
been unusual in the National League.
Tor In the season Of 1906 there were
only 104 of them, and in 1905 only
eighty-seven.
Chicago won thirty-one of the fortv-
four shut-out games i'm which the club
look part, handing the PhiIlies the
largest numbeT-eight-wh the Phil
lies only got back at Chances men
twice.
The Phillies won sixteen shut-out
games and lost seventeen.
There have been fOrty-two games
with 10 scores. McGinnity having the
distinction of winning the longest of

Two nO-hit games were pitched this

Corridor, Pittinger, Sparks and Mo-
rem of the Phillies each pitched a one
mt game. There were only two Other
one-hit games all season, one by Fraser
OF Chicago and the other by Camnitz
of Pittsburg.
The largest score of the season was
made by Pittsburg when thew beat
New york 20 to ) on Aug. %.
In the American League there we're
fewer shut-outs this year than last
the total being 132. The Athletics won
tWenty-six and lost twelve shut-out
games Plank pitched nine shut-outs
Waddell six, Dygert five, Bender four
Coombs one, and Vickers one.
There were no no-hit games i'm the

PAPEE HOT AFTER KELLY
Wants to Settle Question as to Who
Is Real Middleweight
Champion.

Chicago. Nov. Billy Papke, i'm
mediately upon his return from Brazil,
Ind. made an offer to Hugo Kelly to
sign for a match to decide who was
best entitled to the claim or the mid
dleweight championship. Sylvio Fer
reti, who manages Kelly. said that his
man was not in shape for an immedi-
ate go, but Manager T. E. Jones, who
looks after Papke's interests. says that
he will call off any bout he has sched-
uled for go with Hugo.
Papke is matched to meet Pat
OKeefe, the Irishman who arrived
from London in the recent invasion
of British boxers. This go is sched-
uled for six rounds in Philadelphia.
Papke has been winning his bouts with
great regularity and neither Joe Thorn
as nor George Ketchel have shown any
anxiety to meet him.

could have been avoided by a better
knowledge of the danger points, or by
some warning by which the tourist
could have been advised of the proXi-
mate peril. The truth Is that in many
parts of the country, and especially in
those sections which are most pictur-
esque and attractive to the tourist, the
highways are 100 narrow and winding.
and are often skirted by deep unguard-
ed bitches and dangerous gullies, or
crossed by railroad tracks at points
where the motorist would have little
reason to anticipate them.
To lessen these perils as much as
possible the American Motor league
has called upon its members and pro-
prietors of official stations and hotels
along popular touring routes TO take
up the work of erecting danger signs
and guide boards to forewarn the tour

Whenever young fellow breaks into

starts TO put himself in bad repute
with his fellow players and the public.
There is nothing a player can 90

showing of the ego. While 1t is a

Time to Call a Halt.

It's very easy matter for tn
young player to get this impression Of
his worth to a team, and for this rea-
son allowances are made for him. But
when the impression grows to the ex-
tent that the player thinks the game
would not go on without his presence
then II is time to cali a halt. and woe
unto him who has thus offended.
The trouble with a good many Of
these young fellows is that they are
under the impression that in order TO
make good they have to be fresh.
Where they receive this impression ii
is hard to understand, but have it
they do.
There is nothing that so much i'm
presses both players and spectators
as she spectacle OF a youngsters ad-
vent into major league company, es-
pecially when he carries himself with
the decorum appropriate to an ap-
prentice.
II all youngsters would pear this
in mind when breaking in they would
find the path to success in the ma io~s
a much easier task than they do
when hampered by that self-import-
ant feeling that as a rule spells moth
ing but failure. The self-made man
