CHANCE A BENCH MANAGER
Cubs Leader Expects to Give VI
Playing After This Year.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. September 2S.-Capt.
Chance Of the Chicago Cubs will probably
manage the team from the bench next
year. Catcher Archer has developed into
sterling first baseman and Chance
thinks seriously OF keeping him perma-
nently at that station. In regard to the
worlds series with the Philadelphia Ath-
letics Chance isn't saying much. but he Is
known to be pretty confident. He has
wholesome respect for Mack's team. how
ever, and does not expect q walkover.
He believes that Catcher King. who IL
at his best, will be able to stop the Ath-
letic base runners and that the Cubs will
also show faster and more reliable field
ing. The Chicago pitchers. according to
Chances reported belief. will hold their
own, although the Cubs are said to real
ize that in Plank, Bender, Coombs and
Morgan the Athletics have an array OF
boxmen that will be hard to beat.
The Cubs think the Athletics catchers
are not up to championship standard. and
hope to be able to make successful head
way on the base paths. Base ball sharps
in various parts of the country have
figured it out that the rival pennant win
ners are very evenly matched, and that
the series will be productive Of bitter
fight"

Coach Magofhn put his charges through

several different players taking the ball
in turn and running the gautlet.
Two full squads were worked out with
simple plays, but more are being added
with each practice. A big Improvement
is already noticeable in the handling OF
the direct pass, which evidently Is to
play an important part this year. The
boys are getting the plays away very
fast and, as speed is all important under
this seasons rules, their work looks es-
pecially good.
The men have not been separated into
first and second teams, but at the same
time there has been a division into
punches. The coach announced that he
had separated them according to expert
ence and condition, and any man was
likely to be changed from one to another
of the squards at any time. The coach
impresses the men with his desire to
have each one Of them do his best. and
to be fair in his treatment toward all.
So far a very serious drawback has
been the lack of private place in which
to practice. The uncertainties of the
game have placed double price on
secrecy.
Two new men reported last night who
are expected to fill some gaps In the
Hatchetites' lineup. Bill Richardson
of the Potomac Boat Club, and a member
of this years crews. was Immediately put

CUB SCOUT LOOKS
over THE MACKMEN
Jimmy Callahan Believed to Be
Getting Line On
Athletics.

CLEVELAND. September 23.-Manayer
Connie Mack and his men believe they
have spotted the scout whom Manager
Chance of the Cubs has sicked on their
trail to watch the coming American
League champions perform He is Jimmy
Callahan, now the manager of the Logan
Square team, in Chicago. himself a
pitcher of marked renown in the olden
days. and one of the slickest judges OF
plays and players in the land.
Jimmy jumped over to Detroit last week
and took a peek at the Mackites. His
presence gave rise to the belief among
the Mackmen that James is the lad select
ed to follow them about the circuit, as
he kept shy of the Cadillac The Ath-
letics, too, are warm under the collar be-
cause Of the announcement that the first
game of the worlds series may be played
as late as October 16.
They figure that the weeks lay of be-
tween the last game in the American
League and the opener of the world g
series in Chicago will give the Cubs a
chance to keep moving right along. while
the Mackmen will remain stationary and
stagnant. Under these conditions the
Athletics are hot, and claim to be SO
rishtfuily.
Connie Mack sized up the situation to-
day:
I'VE are not going to make any boiler.
but to lay of week is not going to help
any ball club. To let one team go right
along playing to the first game of the
series and keep the other club off the
boards for a week works a hardship on
the team that has to loaf
You know as well as l do that the
club who has to stick around and do
nothing for a week Is not in the same
shape and condition as the team that has
been playing straight along.
Seems to me that something could have
been done to have shortened the National
schedule seeing the Cubs have the pen
nant cinched, and start the worlds series
at the regular time. However, We'll go in
and play our best, and We'll take things
as they come. No kick in ours"

squad came forward and each dropped
his money on the ground at the coach S
side until there was quite q little pile of
quarters and halves: there was only one
green fellow, and the denomination of
that was not large. Coy sravely counted
over the heap and reaching into his
pocket drew out an equal sum.
Stepping back to the fifty-hve-yard line
he made the kick without q moment 9
hesitation. The ball few straight to the
mark and pretty goal was scored on
the first try.
Amid the cheers of the squad Coy pock-
eted his winnings and strolled of the
field to don his playing toys.

teams were selected and put through a

varsity as at present formed had hard
work scoring on the scrubs, the feat
being finally accomplished by Fury,
