CLOUTING
WINS LONG CONTEST

BY reserving the base knocks until
the second chapter OF overtime the
Highlanders managed To snatch a vic
tory from the Tigers In the eleventh
round yesterday. New York 3; De-
troit L.
Having framed things for winning
the Yanks did the job right, making
an extra tally. although there was no
need in view OIL the kind OF ball
Vaughn was pitching. II was the
same old stunt OF fiingist laboring
lefthanded and battling the home
folks.
Both pitchers had the commendable
knack of tightening when hits meant
runs. Also both pitchers broke into
the baseknock columns which is very
commendable on the part OF an ath-
lete whose sole pursuit in life is sup
posed to be pitching. not batting.
In round eight William Donovan
himself, Bill the Batsman, uncorked a
puny single just out OF Knights
reach. Dee Jones hunted for a sacri-
fee hit William went to third on n
fine young wild pitch that almost
sawed leg OF Charley OLeary Then
Charles walked. Cobb singled 10 CEN
ter for the first run Of the game, Don
ovan crossing the platter.

Chase made good hits and the count
was tied
Said hitting streak held over to the
tenth portion. much to the consterna-
ton of the locals, but the two safeties
produced were not enough to get
score. In the eleventh there were sad
and terrible things.
Firstly. Knight singled to left. SEQ
ondly, Gardner singled in the same
place. Thirdly, Cree singled to right
field. Fourthly, Sam Crawford made
a peg TO the infleld that nobody stop
ped and Knight and Gardner Tailed.
Darkness drawing on apace. which
statement can be verified In almost
any book OF cheap poems, the Tigers
all got out in row in their share or

supper.

MACK GETS PENNANT
JUST 81 YEARS AGO

When all OF the scheduled games

Brookfield had lost the same number
of games, and although the former
had won two more. 1t was decided to
play of the tie, as North Brookfield
had had two games postponed on &C.

Hundreds OF dollars were wagered
on the game, and Mack's team won.
TO /, in spirited contest. II was the
beginning OF an eventful career for
Connie The following year he was
with Meriden. Conn, went from there
TO Hartford Conn, Washington, Buf
falo. Pittsburg, Milwaukee, and finally
TO Philadelphia.
Strangely enough Connie was new
er with a frst-place team since the
first one he played with in 1883, up To
the time he developed his own win
ming combinations In the Quaker City
in 1902. 1905, and this season.

Winning the American league pen
nant this year brought Connie Mack
no greater JOY than the championship
he helped win for his home town OF
Brookfield, Mass, way back in 1883.
He was twenty-one years old then,
as he first saw the light OF day on
Dec. %, 1852. Brookfeld's 800 In
kabitants were Justly proud of Connie
Mack, and the other players those
days. and the Oldest inhabitant OF the
village is today probably recalling the
great game Connie caught when they
won the championship OF Central
Massachusetts,, 81 years ago.
Mack had always been an inielder
until one day one OF the Brookfeld
boys mastered curve ball. The regu.
lar catcher could not get accustomed
to the break" and Connie was asked
to try his hand at backstopping. His
debut was a pronounced success.

STARS To PLAY
MACK'S TEAM
Will Engage in Series With Athletics
to Keep Them in
Condition.

CHICAGO, Sept. 27.-An alLstar
team OF American league players will
play "A series of Ave games with the
Athletics, American league champions
during their week of enforced idleness
before meeting the Cubs in the cham
pionship series. according To the latest
dope from Manager McAleer. OF the
Washington club. The aii-star IL TO
fulfill a double purpose-keep the Ath-
letics. from getting the dry rot and
taking the edge of the championship
bouts, 10 spite President Murphy.
Murphy refuses to let the schedule
be moved up so as TO bring the post
season series earlier and the all-star
team has been picked AS counter
move. The games are planned 10 be
played in at least two different cities.
Here is the lineup OF the ail-star team
as now planned:
Catchers-Carr. and Ainsmith {;
Pitchers, LANCE, Johnson. Ford and
Ray Collins: Chase. first base; Gard
liner, second base: Bush. shortstop;
Lord, third base; Milan, left field
Cobb, right field, Speaker, center
field.
In a statement made public today
President Murphy says he does not
feel like asking President Robson TO
make any financial concessions TO
hurry the post-season series along. He
says IL would not be fair TO deprive
the st. Louis club OF revenue at the
gates when he would not benefit finan'
cially in the championship series.
I'VE have one open date, Oct. IA
and would be perfectly willing to
move up the last scheduled game so
that the series cold start that much
sooner" says Murphy.
