Unless an awful slump comes to
the Athletics, it's now pretty Ger.
tain the American league pennant
will go to Philadelphia.
Connie Mack, the genius whose
hand guides the Athletics barque
over the base ball sea, is reaping
the reward of his daring. He came
within an ace of landing the flag
last year, but his young men could
not hold up under the strain, and
gave way before the determined
rush of the veteran Detroiters.
This season things look differ.
ent. Detroit is in the doldrums
and Mack's crew is going away,
steadily. They are off in the lead
and going nicely. Barring acct.
dents to several of his stars, there
seems to be no reason why Cor.
nelius McGillicuddy should not
thread the intricate channel that
leads to Championship harbor, long
before the season draws to a close.
1t was couple of seasons ago
that Mack determined upon the
scheme which is now reaping him
rich reward. He released veter.
an players and filled their places
with youngsters, majority OF
whom had never been heard of. In
1908 the Athletics weren't contend.
ers, but last year they chased the
Tigers to the end. This year they
look like the bet for the flag.
1t required patient drilling to get
the youngsters working together.
Now they are going like machin-
cry and with the best pitchers in
the league, well fortified against
accident, with capable substitutes,
Mack can smile as he recalls the
days when he was being "panned'
for reconstructing his outfit.
Mack is enjoying the harvest of
his foresight. He had the sense
to do that which others didn't dare
do. Jim Collins hung onto his vet.

Oh. no. not at all. Walsh made
1t famous, that's true, but the chap
who really gave the spit ball to the
great American sport has quietly
slipped into the darkness of base
ball oDscurity.
His name was Elmer Stricklett,
and he never ranked much above
second or third class, but just the
same a little niche has got to be
saved in base balls hall of fame
for him.
1t was down in Marlin Springs,
Tex, In 1904, when the White Sox
were training there. Stricklett was
on the pitching staff. One day Cal
lahan called him aside and asked:
Haven't you got good slow ball?"
I've got something better than
that said Stricklett, and then he
