If the Philadelphia Athletics win

the former viii still win the pennant

a cinch Connie Mack's men have for

National League.
Philadelphia has won "a games and

has won 90 games and lost AZ. giving
the Athletics a clear lead Of twelve
games. Provided all the remaining
games are played. Philadelphia had

GRIFFITH PLEASED
BY BASE RUNNING
"Get the Other Fellow Throw
ing; It's a Question Of
Nerve" He Asserts

The base running that the Cincinn-
att players have been doing of late
has pleased Manager Clark Griffith so
much that he intends TO keep the men
at II while their legs are good. Get
the other fellows throwing Grif-
nth says, "and you can do a lot Of
tricks with them. OF course, there are
times when discretion must be exer-
cised don't recommend headlong
base stealing when King or Archer
Is behind the bat. But take the gen
eral run of catchers and Il pays to
keep EN- throwing.
This is the present status of the
attacking part of baseball. Base run
ming has been so subordinated of re-
cent years that the infielders don't
know how TO deal with a lot of fast
men plunging at them all the time.
They are actually at loss what
to do when man after man, instead
OF waiting to be batted around, comes
charging down the line. Catchers
throw uncertainty, infelders take the
throws and group around like catfish.
You can steal almost all the time II
you have a little nerve.
"The spiking of infelders, | think
is largely due to this uncertainty
and clumsiness. In the old days,
when men were stealing all the time,
the basemen were real wonders. both
at touching the runners and lodging
them. Nowadays the infielders don't
know how to handle them. They go
over the base in clumsy fashion and
get spiked by the sliding runners, in
stead OF being to one side collecting
the men as they arrive Look at the
scores and stories of the old game;
you will see that more base runners
used TO get hurt than infelders. If
any one was hurt II was a reckless
runner getting bumped. Seldom was
a baseman spiked"

There is no clear reason why the passage
Of the English succession to the throne

The precedent Of the death OF Queen Vic

respects. both politically and financially.
The effect Of the passing OF the king OF
England on The strained political conditions
IN that country received consideration for
its possible influence on financial affairs
As II happens. the money position In Lon

measures Of recuperstion recently taken by
the Bank OF England in preparation for the
strain Of paying the deferred taxes.
There Was disappointment over the lack
Of formal confirmation OF the reports OF
