the physical injury Of players as to the

sport, and the steady tendency that was

giants as opposed to the men of aver
age physical build. was built on the
foundation of retention Of the ball at
all hazards.
Under the New Rules.
When one man. under the new
game. essays to carry the ball he is
not surrounded by three or four 9TH
ers, who form a wedge or a chisel-
shaped group. which seeks to crowd
the opponents to earth.
He usually runs alone. One of his
companions may seek TO block a GER
tain player and another companion
seek to block another player A
third may essay to get in such posi-
tion that he can ward off runners who
try TO seize the man with the ball.
A fourth may try TO get into a po-
sition where he can prevent the back
from checking the advance of the
ball. That isn't mass play. It is a
running formation and its purpose is
to scatter the defense and not let
It be welded into a compact body
because another compact body is try
ing to break through the line. That
was what resulted under mass play
in other days.
To attempt to stop a running for

BRADFORD co.
ORDERS $50 CARS
7. c. Bradford Expects Big
Demand For Studebaker
Models
SAYS PRICE OF TIRES
IS TO BE RAISED

4. c. Bradford. of The Bradford Com
pany, dealers in automobiles and auto.
mobile supplies, returned on Thursday
from a meeting OF studebaker automo-
bile agents in New York City, which he
says was the most enthusiastic meeting
he ever attended. The agents were en-
tertained by the StudebalSer Combanv
$50 men being I'm attendance. The meet
ing was held on Wednesday at the Astor
House, where the agents we're guests at
luncheon and dinner.
Lieutenant Eames, general manager OF
the Studebaker Company; Mr. Fish, legal
adviser of the company. and Mr. Pol
letter. advertising manager. were among
those at the meeting. II was announced
that the Studebaker Company will man
ufacture 1850 automobiles for 1910 the
deliveries already having commenced
The models are the Studebaker- Flanders
20. the e. NJ. +. 30 and the studebaker-
Garford 20, in addition TO electric vehi-
cles.
Mr. Bradford announced to-day that he
has ordered $50 automobiles for 1910 for
his territory including Delaware and the
Eastern Shore of Maryland These in
clude the Studehaker cars OF different
models, Locomobiles and White cars Of
gasoline and steam type OF the $50
cars ordered Mr.. Bradford says 300 are
OF the studebaker cars. particularly the
Flanders 20 and the Il. NJ. +. . both
OF which he says are in great demand.
Mr. Bradford says the StudebalSer car
orders can be filled practically within a
few days, but he advises that orders be
placed now as deliveries cannot be made
DrOmptlv a few weeks hence
Mr. Bradford made a speech during the
meeting Of agents. in which he defended
the system OF allotting districts cxclu-
sively TO agents. and expressed the be-
lief that every agent always would get
fair treatment from the StudebaSer
Company.
"There was one subject discussed at
length" said Mr. Bradford to-day. "It
was the tire question It was shown
conclusively by persons who had made
thorough investigation and had taken
trips to the rubber fields that the in
crease in the price Of tires is not due to
corner Of the rubber supply but real
iy to a scarcity OF rubber. The prices
Of tires will go still higher within a
short time. I advise every Wilmington
atuomobilist who needs tires to buy
them now"
Mr.. Bradford intends TO devote much
Of his business TO travelling over the Del
aware and Eastern Shore district. That
he may do this the Bradford Company
has engaged Roy b. Sparks, formerly
OF the Otis Elevator Company as mana
ger Of the Wilmington headquarters at
Delaware avenue and Tatnall street. W.
s. Parrish, formerly assember in the
Matheson automobile plant, has been en-
gagged as Superintendent Of the garage
and repair shop. He at one time was
a machinist at the II. and IT. plant
and has had ten years experience i'm au'

WHICH PLAYER WAS
PITTSBURG'S STAR?
One of DetrOit'S Players Says
Tommy Leach Was Man Most
Feared by Tigers

Who was the most dangerous man
in the Pittsburg- Detroit series?
Was Il Hans Wagner, with his tre-
mendous mating average?
Was. II Ty Cobb, sprinting premier
and general star player?
Was it Pitcher George Mullin, with
his grand pitching record2
Was n Babe Adams, the Pirate dark
horse. who won his three games?
According to experts. including mem
bersi of both teams, none Of these can
claim the distinction
"The man who is mos feared by US.
and who is more dangerous than any
player on our team" said one Of the
brainest OF the eDtroit players after
the Thursday game at Detroit. which
was won by the Tigers, ''is Tammy
Leach"
1--WE have something on every other
player on the Pittsburg team, Wagner
included, and they seem TO have the
weaknesses of our best men, including
Ty Cobb, sized up. But when IL comes
70 Leach there's nothing doing in get
ting the percentage on him.
"Whcn he's at bat he's got every
body guessing. There's nothing in the
repertoire of any Of our pitchers that
he can't hit. This is best shown by
the fact that he has struck out only
once I'm the series. And the way he
stands at bat you can't tell whether
he's going TO bunt or take a crack at
the ball-hit TO right or pull around 10
left. Every man on the team is on
the nervous seat as long as Leach is
up there, and all feel relieved when
he's done-whether ne gets a base or is
retired
There are several dangerous men on
both teams. but when Il comes to the
real test, Leach is tougher puzzle
TO handle than any of the others.
And tho other experts agreed with
him.
