Connie Mack To Quit
At End Of Season

This season will probably be the last
one for Connie Mack as manager of the
Athletics.
If the Athletics win the America Il
League pennant and the team is in
good shape for next season, Mack's re-
tirement is almost certain.
Connie is a stockholder IN the Athletic :
club. and when he retires will become
an officer in the club. probably presi-
dent, in which capacity he would direct
the club the same as Charley Comiskey
directs the White Sox.
Mack is forty mine, and at times his
health is not good He has remained
at home several times this season when
the Athletics made short trips on the
road. Another thing, Connie was mar
ried last fall, and naturally, prefers
to be at home to travelling over the
country with his team.
Mack'S retirement would probably up

This will be Davis last year with tn.
Athletics unless he becomes manager
or is held over another year to succeed
Mack, Connie retiring at the end of
neXt season instead of this year.
Mack recently said his career as
manager would not continue much

DEFENSIVE TACTICS
USED BY GOTCH IN
STRENUOUS CAMP
Champion Wrestler Tries
Every Trick Russian Lion
Might Know.

HUMBOLDT, Iowa, Aug. 1S.-Defen-
sive training was the chief feature of
Champion GotCh's work at Riverside
camp yesterday. Frank spent over an
hour on the mat with Reimer, Asbell,
Hassan, and Rogers, who worked in
relays. All four worked over Frank
with every trick in their repertoire, but
none was successful in setting the
champs shoulders even dangerously
close to the mat.
Time after time Gotch permitted Rog-
ers to secure Hackenschmidt's famous
head lock only to break the hold with
comparative ease, ana the burIy grap-
pier was unable to make it stick.
The champion Is rapidly rounding to
perfect condition. He still blows some
what after strenuous work, but his
wind is fast improving. AS the day of
the match approaches the training
schedule is growing sitter, an hour and
half now being spent IN wrestling,
while handball is being played both
morning and afternoon. The morning
run was heightened today to twelve
miles instead of eight.

That Thompson was able to stay the

"Crabbiest" Pitcher

II always has been q much-disputed
question as to who 10 the "crabbiest''
pitcher in the league. former Ameri-
can League umpire, now living in De-
troit, declares that George MuIlin is
about the worst ever"
'Mullin frets all the time when he is
in the game" this former official said
mo matter what the decision-that is,
If II goes against him-he crabs. If
the ball is a foot high and the umpire
calls 1t a ball Mullin will almost stand
on his head. However, he is better
than some pitchers. He never roasts
an umpire SO the spectators can hear
what he is saying. That Is why he is
seldom, If ever, evicted during a con-
test"
Warhop, of New York; Karger of
Boston, and Morgan, of Philadelphia,
are other pitchers who have made
names for themselves among the UNI
