Transforming TRIPS BARRED
Connie Mack Is Pleased at New Hule-
incidentally He States His Team
viii Lead Again.

Connie Mack is of the opinion that
the new regulation prohibiting barn
storming tours by the worlds cham
pions is a good thing. AT the same
time he declares that the Athletics
had his full consent to go to Cuba las'
fall and he is only sorry that Collins
and Baker did not go along so as to
make a stronger combination, one thai
perhaps the Cubans wouldn't have
beaten so decisively.
But the work Of baseball team
on such trip should not be taken
too seriously" Mack adds very prop
erly. THE players consider them
selves on picnic, following season
that has been anything but that sor'
of an affair, and it does not take many
days for them 10 fall off. They do no'
care TO take chances, quite naturally
and in consequence lose form.
Connie concluded by saying There
will be no transforming for my team
next fall; the rules won't permit 1t,
in which remark he serves notice OF
fifteen other major league manager'
that the Athletics are to be on th'
top of the pile at the end OF the III
worlds championship battles.

sarnhard Explains Capitol statuary.


George Gray Barnard who
wrought the two beautiful groups
that have been placed on either side
of the main entrance to the State
Capitol, addressed the House of Rep
resentatives. He spoke on the dig
nifty of labor and the brotherhood Of
man, which, he said, he had tried to
sxenplify in marble. Labor, he said,
is the best thing in life and the best
friend OF man. The vision of the
figures in the two groups, he said,
came to him eighteen years ago while
walking along a lonely road 1t was
storming and lightning was playing
about him. He thought of the men

groups, he continued, show two sides
of life. One group represents the

The Bible was used until quite re
cent years for the detection of thieves
DR.. Jessop told In 1882 how there
were still persons living who had wit
messed the ordeal to which an East
Anglican parson subjected his serv'
ants when his cash box was missing.
He ordered them all into his bedroom
and ranged them around the wall
From the center Of the ceiling hung
the rope used to lower collins into the
churchyard graves, wound round a
Bible, from the leaves Of which pro
jected the church door key. This was
sent spinning round, and the one al
whom the key pointed when 1t stopped
was proclaimed as the thief. Happily
the man thus marked out was able to
prove an alibi, But this did not con
vince the servants that the test was
a bad one. They only concluded that
the thief was not there.

FEW AGREE ON CLOSE PLAYS
Always Division Of Opinion Among
Players Sitting on Bench
Scorer is Criticised.

Ball players will always find objec'
tions to the scorer who sits in the
press box. No matter whether that
scorer has sublime knowledge OF
baseball or whether he is just tackling
the rudiments of the game. he'll draw
the criticism just the same.
The player says the scorer knows
less than nothing about the game, and
the scorer, a bit more charitable, says
the players know nothing about scor.
ing, so there you are.
Truth of the matter is that few men
will agree on a close play. There is
always a divided opinion. Just to
show how ball players themselves are
unable to agree with one another, al
though they blame the scorers for not
agreeing with them, take an incident
one day this spring at Memphis. The
Tigers had an off day and attended a
game between the Cubs and Memphis
teams. Cobb and Moriarty were seat
ed in the front row with score cards.
Some of the things that happened:
In the first inning a Cub batter lined
the ball into left. The outielder hesi-
tate fraction of second, after which
he tore in after the ball 1t hit his
gloved hand about a foot above the

"He ought to have had it."
Nothing of the kind. Morrie That
