PERTINENT COMMENT ON
HAPPENINGS In SPORTDOM
BY J. ED GR1LLo.

Two years ago Jim McAleer fell into
disfavor with the base hall public of St
Louis because he failed TO win the pen
nant, after making a game fight with a
team which really lad no right TO be in
the first division. Since then the Browns
have finished seventh and eighth, and. in
cidentally. there has been a wonderful
change in the ambition of the public
Where nothing but the pennant would do
in 1:0S. all they ask of Bobby Wallace is
to get out of last place. When the 1893
team finished a notch above the tail end
kept the team in the fight the years be-
fore were sent TO the minors. Inferior
material was secured to take their places
with the result that the team finished last
in the last campaign. McAleer or no
other man could have made the Browns a
winner in 1909 any more than
10 victory in 1911 unless he
gets better material than O'Con-
nor left him. Wallace may be
capable manager. but he needs
ball players before he will pe able to
show ANYTHING in the way of improve
ment. When the Browns made that
squirt in 1908 and for time at least had
as good chance for the flag as its three
rivals. Tigers Maps and Sox. it was hard
to believe that such a team could hold
its own in the first division, and when
subsequently the crash came and ii finish
ed fourth there should have been no
disappointment in ST. Louis, for the team
had done better than it's strength entitled
it to.
A New York writer says that it is
strange none of the other clubs have
made an effort to take Carrigan off of
John J. TaylOr's hands. The Boston
catcher was one of the players vino Tay-
Tor said would not be carried next sea-
son. yet nothing has been done TO trade
or sell him. There is no doubt that Tay-
Tor could part with Carrigan i'm jiffy
If his price was reasonable. But Judging
from the demands he makes for his
catcher he has no sincere intention of
getting rid of him Carrigan wants more
money than Taylor thinks he is worth.
and this caused him to make the talk of
getting rid of him, but if the truth were
known it would probably be found that
just as SOON as Carriean gets his figures
down to where they belong he can step
into Boston uniform.
For the present at least there is hardly

Gallaudet and Catholic University meet
again tomorrow night in the second game
of the series to decide the basket ball
supremacy between the two schools.
Catholic University won the first game,
and If that institution wins tomorrow the
| third game will probably not be played.
Since its defeat, Gallaudet has been work
ing hard with this contest particularly in
view. and should be able to put up bet
ter article of ball than it did two weeks
ago. The BroOklandites were unable to
score as many points against Georgetown
as did Gallaudet. but from their showing
at different times during the battle with
the Blue and Gray it would seem that
the chances are in favor of them winning.
The Georgetown Props have cOrralled
youngster from out in Los Angeles, Childs
by name, who looks like conner on the
track. He ran on the high school team in
his home town and will more than likely
make the prep relay four hands down.
And incidentally the props should turn
out cracking good four this season.

the relay team will be much faster than

That there is always chance to i'm
prove ball players speed was shown in
the case of Jack Lelivelt last season. who
placed himself under Raoul Lemat, To-
cal trainer. who greatly improved Leli-
velt's running. Every morning Jack would
put in an hour or so learning the art. and
he showed lot of improvement within a
few weeks. McAleer proposes to put in
a lot of time while the team is south in
perfe citing the stride and form Of several
of his players in the hope of increasing
their speed. realizing that speed means
much to ball team.

The democrats of Garrard county

delegates to represent Garrard county
at the convention in Louisville to Sc

commissioner in this district. We are

ing that the primary is the only proper
way to select party nominees, and the
calling of the convention was a great
mistake when we were to have a pri-
mary on July LIST. 1t is rumored that
this convention was lobyied through the
committee by certain faction of DEM
ocrats in the district, and that they
had in mind that at this time the peo-
pie would be very busy. The duties of
the Railroad Commission are very i'm
important to the people of the state,
therefore the man nominated at Louis
vile should be a good one and one that
would be on the lookout for the best
interests of the people. You should
attend the convention at the court
house on the above date and send good
men to Louisville, men that would Sc
