Chase Declares Job as Manager
 Is Hard To Swing
Retiring Leader of New York Americans Says He Was Blamed For Many Things Not His Fault

New York, Nov. 25.-"Managing a big ball team isn't a cinch," said Hal Chase yesterday. "The manager is the goat if the team doesn't win. If a player falls down in his fielding or batting the manager receives the blame. If the team is crippled it's the managers fault. On the other hard if the team wins nobody gives credit to the manager. The players They've made the manager successi full, for without them he'd have been a shine.
 When I took hold of the High. flanders i'll 1910 at MT. FarrelPs re- quest l. didn't know what troubles good team and I saw no reason why we, shouldn't go right along playing good ball. The Giants beat us in the post-season series that fall, but it was wholly because Matty pitched great ball while Russell Ford, after Sweeney was hurt in the first game of the series, couldn't deliver his best goods. Naturally I felt Sure that the team would come back af- ter winters rest and when we re- ported last spring everybody was en- thusiastic.
 "The mistake I made off the reel was the way l treated the men. humored some of them, praised otf- CTS and encouraged the rest. I tried to fill them with cheerfulness and ambition, which have made me a star ball player. I believed that fining them for petty offences was en- tirely out of order and that the strict enforcement of discipline might cause ill feeling. In short want the players to be a big happy family, pulling together all the time.
 ''It wasn't long before I found that a hoodoo was travelling with us, the same hoodoo that has been working overtime on the Hilltop ever since the club was launched. With dis curaging frequency the teams best players were hurt. Vaughn became ill before we got here from the train- split. Gardner's leg was wrenched. Knights poor condition became chronic. Wolter's finger and ankle put him on the shelf. Warhop's arm became useless and to cap the c1i- max I was laid up for several weeks myself Yet in spite of these handi- caps the team was up in the first di- vision until the latter part of Sep- tember.
 "It was hard work to win at all, and some of the men when they real ized the team couldn't get into first place decided that it was a waste of energy to play their heads off Be- ing ballplayer myself I couldn't see my way clear to fine some of the men or lay them off without pay, so I concluded before the season ended that I wasn't cut out for the job. love to play baseball without having cares There's no fun when vou're

White Sox to Shift
 Ten Recruits to Minors
Manager Callahan Decides Upon Corsicana, Texas, as Training Ground
 for 1912

Chicago. Nov. 25.-with the train ing quarters practically settled on for Corsicana, Texas, President Charles A Comiskey of the Chicago Ameri- can League Club and James Calla- han, his manager, have settled down to a wedding out process. There are forty-two players on the clubs roster and ten of these are to be disposed of.
 The identity of all those slated to go is not known even to the owner of the White Sox. Deals for the dis posal of players are said to have al- ready been started, and several youngsters who were encouraged by being called to the big fold will be disappointed in a few days when they ind they have been sent back to minor leagues for further seasoning. It also is expected that the standing of some of the veterans is not as substantial as it might be, and one or two, of these may be weeded out. The team has ten pitchers, two of these, Delhi of Los Angeles and Peters of Minneapolis, being newcomers.

supers,,r.on About Cats.


 In the Monferrato it is believed that all the cats who wander about upon the roofs during the month of Febru- ary are really witches, whom it is law full and even necessary to shoot. An old German superstition has it that if black cat sits upon the bed of a sick man it is presage of his death, while if after his decease it is seen upon his grave it is enough to arouse doubts as to the locality to which his soul has departed. In Hungary it is thought that cats generally become witches between the ages of seven and twelve years. A French belief con- corning, the cat is that if the animal be carried in cart and the wind blow from it to the horses they immediately fall tired. If any part of the horse mans clothing be made of cats skin the horse will feel as though it carried a double burden.

Penn And Michigan Still Very Sore OuakerS Claim WesternerS Made Slurring Remarks and Tore
 Banners From Penn
 Train

Philadelphia, Nov. 25.-The Penn sylvania-Michigan discussion grow: more heated daily It was started by an editorial in the Michigan Daily duct on the field of the Quaker play. CTS as what might be expected rather from members of the old Wyo gang than from representatives of a cul. tured university. It called to mind the crippling of Schultz in the game of 1908 and more than intjmated that that happening was not altogether ac- cidental. It claimed that the Penn sy1vania slogan certainly was not '"The bravest are the tenderest." It hint ed that Horatius, when he held the bridge, was in no such danger o1 bodily harm as any Michigan Tunnel who held the ball last Saturday.
 The members of the athletic board at Ann Arbor are not in sympathy with the Daily's views. Their cha grin was comparable to that of some Russian Prince who suddenly dis covers that his official announcer has taken advantage of his position to set off a bomb under the royal chair With one accord they rushed to the coop and routed out the dove of peace.
 Yost said: "Any one who saw the game out here Saturday between Penn and Michigan knows that there would be little chance of a cleaner contest. I am strongly in favor of continuance of relations with the Quakers."
 F. G. Bartelme, director of athlet- ics, also was plain in his views. He remarked to the question what he thought of the editorial:
 You can say for me as long as relations continue as pleasant and as satisfactory as they have in the past I shall do all in my power to further continue athletic relations betweeen Michigan and Penn"
 One of the prominent faculty mem- bers of the board in control Of ath- letics and who has long follow ed Michigan's athletic fortunes said have my name quoted, but I feel, that though 1 have always been strongly opposed to some of Michigan's ath- letic rivals, the action of the Mich igan Daily at this time is ill-advised. I have been told by those who know that one of the reasons for Penn's s poor showing this year is that she has been trying to clean up athlet- fcs there."
 But meanwhile the Pennsylvania men, believing that the culture of war was flying eastward, loaded up a double barrelled shotgun in anticipa- ton of it's approach, with the result that the dove of peace bearing olive branches through the gloom was a victim of mistaken identity and lost most of it's ta il feathers.
 The student body arose in it's wrath and made scathing remarks about their little Western friends. They claim that the reception accorded them in Ann Arbor would not entitle the Michiganders to any pink medals for chiva1ry. Their welcome resem-

Capt PendIeton
 Has Great Record Newly Elected Princeton Football Leader One of Tigers Foremost
 Athletes

Talbot Taylor Pendleton, 'I3 of
 Beerkley Springs, West Virginia, who was elected captain of the Princeton University football team for next sea- son, graduated from the Episcopal High School in Alexandria, Va, Tn the Spring of 1909 and is without a
 doubt the most famous athlete ever turned out from that school.
 He enteged Princeton in the Fall of the same year and was elected cap tain of the freshman team, which l went through it's season without de- feat. Last year Pendleton played at half back on the varsity and won a
 runner and a remarkable offensive player. It was by his wonderful open field running alone that the Tigers were able to defeat Lafayette and Dart mouth. In the latter contest he suc- ceeded in getting through the entire Green team for an 85-yard run for a touchdown, and on account of his
 brilliant work in these two games was chosen halfback on Walter
 This season he has alternated at
 quarterback and halfback and, al- though his work has not been bril- liant, he has been invaluable to the Tigers by the opposing end. Tn the Harvard and Yale battles he was

 Tn the Yale game, he downed Spaulding after having been appar- ent1y boxed out of the play. Spauld- ing, had it not been for Pendleton, would undoubtedly have made a score, Pendleton is also a baseball player and a fast track man. He played on the Tiger nine last season but was unable to run on account of a faculty ruling

WILLIE BEECHER WINS FROM WILLIE HOWARD

Willie Beecher qualified for the cakewalk stakes at the American A. C.. Brooklyn, last night when he did just about as he pleased with Willie Howard in their ten-round bout. Toward never had a chance. Beecher tcyed with him throughout the ten rounds.
 Howard did his best, but it was not good enough by long odds to give him even the better of a single one of the sessions with the rugged Beecher. Howard showed a flash carly in the ninth round when he larDed several hard punches. But Reecher soon came back, evened up ,natters for the round, and in the final session increased his already big lead.

The attempt to hornswoggle Pitcher Ray out of his salary did not meet with any screaming success. The board of arbitration of the national association has allowed his claim against the Hartford club. The decis- ion was given out at San Antonio yesterday. Ray is pitcher who was secured from the St. Louis Americans last spring. He did fine work in the early games, but later complained of rheumatism and wanted to return to his home in Texas. Owner Clarkin of Hartford thought Ray was bluffing. so he suspended him without salary, and the twirler went back to the old Panhandle State. He later filed a claim for back salary.
 Another salary claim allowed by the board was that of Eddie Bridges, the former Norwich and New Haven catcher. Eddie had a claim against the Montreal club. He was farmed to Wilkesbarre in the New York State League, but claimed there was piece of. change coming to him before the Canadian team let him go.

 George Needham, the infielder who helped Waterbury win a flag in 1910, has bought the Cafe Roma in Buffalo and will become regular boniface. He intends to play ball in the spring, probably with Worcester.
 Manager Fred Clarke of the Pitts burgh team, comes through with the first prediction. He says Marty O'Toole, the $22, 800 beauty, will be the greatest boxman in the big Ieaugues next season unless he falls down and breaks his promise before the bell rings.
 Roger Bresnahan, the St. Louis Car dinal manager, will consider an offer for Miller Huggins, who is wanted by Cincinnati as 8 manager. Bresnahan has been offered Second Baseman Egan and Catcher Severoid, but he can't see that. The St. Louis man ager wants a better bunch of talent for Huggins, who is regarded as a fine second baseman.
