accident, Ralph did not take his
usual position, but was as far over
on the other side of the field as he
could get without arousing sus-
picion. Here he was busily en-
gagged in tying up refractory shoe
string. The scrimmage line must
have been 20 yards away from him.
gave the cue to the center. He
snapped the ball into my hands. |
passed it quickly to Ralph, just as
he took an upright position.
Before Brown realized what had
happened, he was flying down the
field with a clear getaway, not a
Brown player near enough to reach
him and not a chance of overtaking
him, for he was the fastest runner
on the field that day.
That trick gave us touchdown,
which was more than we could
have hoped for from any regular
play at such a critical time.

LOS ANGELES, Cal, Nov. IA
AdWolgast of Milwaukee is here
on the track of Abe Attell. So con-
fident is the Milwaukee boxer that
he can down the champion that he
is out with proposition to bet
$4,000 that he can whip Abe in a
As round encounter and one-fifth of

rounds with Attell. r
Wolgast first sprang into pr0mi7
nence when he cleaned Harry Bal
ker, one of the cleverest lads who
ever came out of the west. This
he did in Milwaukee and while Bal
ker yelled robbery" and declared
that he was jobbed, the sporting
writer's avow that Harry was whip
ped soundly.
Since that night Wolgast has
been steadily forging to the front
until now he claims that he is en-
titled to recognition by the cham
pion il only for his nerve In offer
ing to wager such sum upon the
outcome of the fight. Wolgast is
not a boxer, but simply strong,

THE NEWEST TIES

Smart and easily made ties are
formed from strips of Irish crochet
insertion about <three inches wide,
and long enough to tie in four in
hand or small bow with long ends.
The ends of these ties are fin
ished in tiny ball frings. Sometimes
the entire length of the tie is bound
in a bias strip of white or colored
silk a quarter of an inch wide.
More serviceable, but quite as
easily made, are long ties of black,
blue or any desired color of satin
finished soft silk or taffeta, about
two inches wide and finished with
pointed ends.
These ties hang below the bust
line and are fastened at the throat
with knit slides of embroidery silk
the same color.

man for such a team. He is stih a
wonderful twirler, a good batter
and man whose good character
would add moral strength to the
team.
Mordecai Brown of the Chicago
worlds champions is one of the
brainiest pitchers in the business.
He has probably the best control of
any twirler in either of the big
leagues.
Christy Mathewson of the Giants
stands shoulder to shoulder with
the best pitchers of the day. He
possesses wonderful delivery and
his control is excellent. :,
No all star pitching staff would
be complete without at least one
good left handed pitcher. l select
Nap Rucker of the Brooklyns for
the job. He pitched wonderful bal
for poor club last season, and
would be one of the stars of the
game Win Il WlHHeT.
Frank Chance does not look as
graceful at first base as Fred Ten
ney or Hal Chase. but he gets
everything that comes his way, and
his timely hitting helped the Cubs
win three pennants and two world s
championships. He has plenty of
brains, too.
Napoleon Lajoie would doubtless
play wonderful ball at second base
for such a team. He is grand
fielder, a fine hitter and the sort OF
player needed to keep an infield
steady.
Hans Lobert for third base-this
selection will surprise many. But
Lobert is star whose brilliancy
is hidden because he is with poor
team. He is one of the hardest hit
tiers in the country, great man
to have at the bat in pinch, one of
the fastest base runners ever, and
clean fielder. Besides, he is
always in condition and ever Will
ing to do anything to help his team
along. 49,
Fred Clarke has been in the bust.
ness a good many years. but is still
one of the best outfielders in the
country. He is fast on his feet, has
plenty of gray matter, can hit like
a fiend and is a splendid fielder.
Mike Donlin would be a great
center fielder on such a club. He is
one of the best pinch hitters in the
country, and is a good man in the
field He fights gamely to the fin
ish nevery game.
Ty Cobb, the crack Detroit out
fielder, would round out an all star
team nicely. Cobb is fast as a flash
on the bases, one of the best bat
tiers the American league has had
in years and covers a lot of terri
tory. -'E

For the All-America team
Catchers-Kling, Chicago Nation
ais; Sullivan, Chicago Americans.
Pitchers-Walsh, Chicago Ameri-
cans; Joss, Cleveland Americans;
Young, Boston Americans; Brown,
Chicago Nationals; Mathewson,
New York Nationals; Rucker,
Brooklyn Nationals.
First base-Chance, Chicago Ma
tionals.
Second base-Laioie, Cleveland.
Third base-Lobert, Cincinnati.
Shortstop-Wagner, Pittsburg.
Left field-Clarke, Pittsburg.
Center field-Donlin, New York
Nationals.
Right field--Cobb, Detroit.
In selecting King and Sullivan
as the catchers for an All-American
team, l take into consideration
brains and the ability to keep the
runners from rioting on the sacks.
King looks like the best catcher
in harness today. He is always
cool under fire, a good thrower,
timely sticker and a fast base run
ner Best of all, he is always ready
for business.
Sullivan would make a good run
ming mate for King. Like the Chi
cago National backstop he is per-
fectly reliable, game to the core,
handy with the bat and a great man
to keep pitcher steady.
| select six pitchers, because a
team to go through hard cam
paign would need at least that
many.
Walsh is without question one of
the greatest pitchers of the age. He
is big, strong, has a puzzling spit
ball, and about everything a
pitcher needs to fool the batsman.
Addie Joss is another wonderful
twirler. He is a powerful man, has
good curves and a fadeaway ball
that is almost unhittable when it is
working right.
Old Cy Young, the dean of major
league pitchers, would be an ideal

play ! ever saw. We know it here
as the "shoestring" play. 1t was

with success only about once in a

My brother Ralph was playing
halfback and | was playing quarter
We figured it out that we ought to
have at least one chance in the
important game with Brown to
work this play, and we waited and
watched for the opportunity all
through the early part of the con-
test.
We knew that if the trick failed
1t not only would be a giveaway
of our intentions, but would prob
ably mean loss of ground as well.
The team had been carefully
schooled in the play. There was
to be no signal, so the players were
on the alert from the very start of
the game
Finally, when we needed to score
pretty badly, Ralph saw his oppor-
tunity. The teams had worked over
