HEAVY MEN

NEW HAVEN. Conn. Oct. 1.-THE
cry OF the Yale coaches for more
weight in the rush line is the biggest
surprise OF the Yale season. II was ex.
pected that the new rules would put
a premium on speed rather than
weight, but the placing of Greenough
and Young, each of whom weighs 2St
pounds, at the guard positions, shows
that Coach Coy and Coach Sanford
the latter OF whom is paying particu
lar attention to the line, believed that
weight is still prime requisite.

will be taken along. A game of -four

REAL DANGER IS

New York Series Offers Fine Elk
ample of How Bettors Have
Turned To Baseball.

The real danger now confronting
the national pastime is the game may
fall into the hands of gamblers, or, at
least, be Influenced by men who
wager. You recall something of this
kind occurred in New York a season
or two ago, umpires alleging they had
been approached by gamblers who
haG much ut stake In the crucial game
with Chicago.
Just now the men who wager are
turning their attention to the impend-
ing series between the Highlanders
and Giants. Huge sums are being
wagered on the outcome. II the game
ever is Influenced by the betting ele'
ment 1t will 60 the way OF boxing.
wrestling and running. Absolute free
dom from crookedness has done as
much as anything to keep baseball
popular. Here is little reprint that
sums up the Gotham situation well:
While open betting on the coming
games between the Giants and the
Highlanders will be suppressed as
much as possible by the officials Of
the rival clubs, some big wagers will
change hands on the result Of the
series. e. E. Smathers, the we'll
known trotting horseman: Dave john
son, John w. Gates, John A. Drake.
James B. Brady and others who will
bet On any kind Of proposition have
installed the Highlanders favorites
over the Giants at 10 to 9. although
among the rank and file OF baseball
fans the speculation seems to be a
case of even money and take your
pick" Smathers,. once a stanch sup
porter of the Giants, said:

of their games this year, and / am
going to trail with Hal Chase. fused

toppers, but now I've changed my
mind. I will back Chase's players to
win this series, and I'm offering 10

Meanwhile other followers OF base
ball say they've received a tip indi-
rectly from John J. McGraw that his
team is the lone best bet" and that
II he hadn't been absolutely sure OF
beating the New York Americans he
wouldn't have allowed President Brush
to agree to the series. The difference
OF opinion has caused unusual excite
ment In local sporting circles, with
the result that probably thousands or
dollars will be wagered privately on
the outcome of the series. But, as
stated above, open betting at either
OF the local ball parks will be strictly
prohibited, and II persons are caught
I'm the act, the club officials say, they
will be promptly elected.

n costs money to keep major league
baseball teams recruited up TO the
standard demanded in the big show.
The fans who read during the sum-
mer and autumn concerning purchas'
cd and drafted players. who follow
the work of the scouts and who keep
. weather-eye on the b.g sales by
minor leagues probably have little
idea of the vast sums involved.
The minor leagues received
lust $291, $50 from clubs In the
National and American leagues
for the contracts Of ball players
during 1910. " each club gets
two good players from this small
army Of recruits the average will
be maintained. That would fix
the price Of q competent major
league player at $4,000. The
money paid for others than the
thirty competent men 10 simply
wasted In experimenting. Do you
wonder that the magnate 10 a
busy man?
The American league was more
liberal by SlS.250 than the National.
The American seemed more anxious
TO get the cream OF the minors, for
3117,500 was expended on purchased
players compared with $50 by the
National. OF course. the best men
are gobbled up before the drafting
season begins On the draft the
American spent $4,000, while the
National let loose s46,700, This made
the totals. s155,300 for the American
and $136,700 for the National.
Owner Charles Somers OF the
Cleveland club was the real liberal
epender. The man who chucked a lot
OF money into the American league
when II started and virtually made II
successful has not grown stingy when
his own club hit the toboggan. The
Maps let loose SCI 300 In cash for
men outright and have optional agree
ments for $4,000 in additin TO a mere
$500 for drafted men, making the
tidy total OF $4,000 for added
strength In one season. Liberality
like that ought to get the Maps
something, and OF course, they need
ed men.
The Chicago White Sox also were
liberal spenders Comiskey made a

PRES. NAVIN TALKS
ABOUT PRIZE AUTO

When asked for his views on the
much-discussed prize automobile CON
test. Pres. Frank Navin. Of the Detroit
club, made the following statement:
"The question as to whether Cobb
or La1oie gets the automobile II the
smallest part OF the situation owner
ship of the automobile carries with
II some distinction and 81 800 worth
of value. That Is all You cannot
estimate nor conceive the damage
done to sport by the suspicious which
this matter has caused.
How many times one has heard the
statement: oh. bet that game was
fixed How many times every man
conversant with the principles which
govern the national sport has arisen
to defend the game and laud its hon
esty. The st. Louis incident Sunday
will give to those who wish to suspect
plenty OF basis on which to anchor
their suspicious.
where might grieve deeply over the
fact that Cobb lost the auto, or In sup.
posed TO have lost 1t. or course

prize. I do regret exceedingly that
anything Of this nature should have
found it's way into baseball and as q
cl,-o owner I am going to use all my
energy to see that conditions never
arise again to make q situation Of this
kind possible.
IF the lay down to Lajoie was a.
barefaced as reports from st. Louis
would indicate considerable blame
should attach to the owners Of the st,
Louis club. Nothing like this ever
could happen on my grounds. The
