Il have been asked frequently wheth-
er | will be az effective in this coming
worlds series against the Athletics as
l was in 1905" said Christy Matthew
son. the Giants star, today.
This is a hard matter to figure out.
The wear and tear of six years hard
pitching has had it's effect, of course,
and may cut in toia certain extent up
on my comparative speed and the break
of my curve ball.
My arm, however, feels as good and
as strong as it ever did and / know 1
have picked up a lot of pitching knowl-
edge since 1906.
Il was in fine shape six years ago,
but l figured then that I had as hard a
job before me as I have at this stage
of the worlds series.
1T has been said that Mack's present
team is a much harder hitting club
than his old one, which may be true.
But it should be remembered that Phil
adelphia was supposed to have, and did
have, a hard-hitting set then. Socks
Seybold, Harry Davis, Ossie Schreck,
Danny Murphy, Topsy Hartsel and
others We're ranked as the best in the
game. In fact, that club hit almost as
we'll as the present-day Athletic aggre-

cation. Yet McGinnity and l happened
to be in good shape and we shut them
out In four games.
I'll admit hat we are all looking
for a hard battle-a much harder one
than We drew that year, but the pres
ent Giant team is more confident OF
winning thar the 1905 bunch was.
"A good deal depends-in fact, most
of it depends-upon the condition of
the two pitching staffs. Chief Bender
is always a hard man to beat; Coombs
is a first-class pitcher and Plank has
had his best season in years.
ION the other hand. we have a better
worlds series pitching staff now than
we had then. AS stated above, my
arm feels as good now as it did then.
TN RUDE Marquard we have a left
handler more than liable to beat any
club in the business and he, too, looks
to be in fine shape.
"Wiltse, Ames and Crandall are all
pitching good ball.
I'm Crandall the Giants have one OF
the best relief pitchers in the business
which may help a lot. Taking things
all around, 1 can't see why we
shouldn't have enough edge In pitching
to offset things and possibly give us
the advantage"

FuHbock ThomSon

Michigan's football team this season
looks like one of the classiest that has
represented the university for years,
and Coach "Hurryup" Yost is wearing
a broad smile of satisfaction. 1t is the
greatest aggregation of beef and Drawn
in local history. The players average
IT'S pounds and every man Is fast.
No team in the West holds more in
terest for Eastern college men than
this eleven.
Beef and Drawn, while desirable, are
not as necessary as speed. Michigan
has all three, and if the team does
rot revive memories of the famous
'point-a-minute' eleyens Of years ago,
it will be because present prospects
fall down sadly.
Carpell, a new man, is being groomed
for the sensational plays that fell to
Heston and Magidson. Carpell is one
OF the fastest men who has ever
donned the m%oleskins for Michigan. He
hits the line low and true, n has
the unusual knack of being able to
dodge either to the right of left with
cut slackening speed.
Garrels, a brother of the famous
Johnny, is showing up in fine style at
end. He is exhibiting a better knowl-

BANTY LEWIS BEATS
JOE TIERNEY, WHO
IS MUCH HEAVIER

PANTY Lewis, of this city, by using
his left hand eleverly and a right jaw
punch. when his opponent looked dan
eerous. succeeded in earning a decision
over Joe Tierney, of Elizabeth, In one
of he star four-round bouts at Gus
Troxler's Central Institute last night
Neither seemed to land effective blows,
hut Lewis seemed the most clever IN
all respects.
The bout was ever in the early
rounds, but in the final Lewis landed
two clean punches to the "Betsytown-
er,s, one. Tierney outweighed the
local lad by fifteen pounds, but his
weight did not affect Banty in the
least.
Dave Dillon. of Hoboken, proved 10
be an easy winner over Bert Papp.
Dillon had the lead in every round, n
when the four rounds were up Papp
seemed to be about all In" In the
third main event, between Tommy
Hogan and Young Lipp, of Bayonne,
the latter disposed of his opponent
after one and a half rounds of boxing.
The fasco happened in the second
round, when Lipp caught Hogan on
the jaw with a swift right.
The semi-final was a one-sided AFFAIR
and ended after two rounds, Louis
Meyer, of Paterson, completely out
CHASING Joe Brick, of New York, The
preliminaries were good and furnished
excitement as well as interest.
Joe Lee, of Orange, won from YOUNG
Short, of this city; Young Stock beat
Jimmy Moran, of Elizabeth, while
Eddie Win, of this city, proved easy
picking for Kid Burge, of Roseville.

edge of football and a more pro-
nounced ability to assimilate the plays
than did Johnny when he broke into
the game.
Craig, the quarter candidate, and
Almendinger, Ann Arbor's pride and
star linesman, are also showing ex-
cellent form in practise. Fullback Bot
ties Thompson should be a terror on
offense. Thompson is a rangy man,
and while not as large as Longman,
Garrels and other Michigan fullbacks,
he will compare favorably with the
stars of other years, before the seaso
is over.
Patterson has every qualification nee
essary for a star centre. Wells is a
known proposition. 1t is freely pre-
dicted hat he will be chosen for Wal
ter Camps mythical All-American team
this fall. Conklin Is captain of the
team and hat should be sufficient evil
dence of his ability.
The varsity squad is now composed
of Patterson, A~lmendinger, Quinn, Ro-
lee, Boyle. Barton, Craig, Thompson,
Torbett, Carpell and Harrington. The
latter is considered the find of the sea-
son He is regarded as Eckersalls
equal when it comes to drop kicking.

CLUB ENTERS "
TEAMS In TOURNEY

Two teams from the Essex Bowling
Club. of Bloomfield, have entered the
STAR headpin bowling tournament.
Bloomfield and Watsessing are always
well represented in the big COMPETE

believed that the Essex pin-knights
are only the f~orerunners of a great
throng of lowlers from that section as
the season grows older. "Watsessing
