DERRICK AT SHORT,
M'MILLAN AT I'd FOR
YANKS NEXT YEAR

NEW YORK, Dec. 14-Now that John
McGraw has waived on Frank Chance
there seems nothing to stand in his way
and he viii soon become a member of the
Highland team, and its manager And
already the dopesters are beginning to
figure on the Yankee team for 1918.
Tommy Mcmillan, who came out of the
international league during the latter
part OF last season, is believed by num-
Der of the Highland players to be bet
ter second baseman than he is a short
stop Now, what do you think of that?
The same players also think that when
the new manager gets a look at Derrick,
playing short, they will never get him out
of that position.
Connie Mack has said that snort seems
to be the best place for Derrick He.
has that long reach and can go either way
after the ball, and l think he would be.
better there than any other place in the
infield, although he has played all the
positions" said Connie. 81 am under the
impression that when the New York club
is at work and they learn how Derrick
can take care Of that job he will be named
for that position in the lineup for the
opening game"
Although Mcmillan did great work at
short, the Yankees right now are kind of
lost for second baSeman. Tommy
might be good al that corner. He has
played short most of the time, but has
had to work out at second base several
times, and there is no doubt that he can
take care of that job. But the dope seems
and that the Yankees will have no trou-
BILE filing that position.

BROOKLYN TURNS MILLER
OVER TO NASHVILLE CLUB

NASHVILLE, TENN, Dec. Ia
Through the working agreement that
exists between Nashville and the
Brooklyn clubs, Otto Miller VIII be
turned over to the Volunteers next sea
son. Miller is one of the first string
catchers for the Dodgers, but such
great backstoppers as Erwin and
Phelps will just about crowd Otto off
Ebbetts' pay roll
Miller will fill the shoes of one Row5y
Elliott and it goes without saying that
he will not have any great big task do
ing it Otto ought to perform wonders
for Nashville, as he is possessed Of
great amount Of gray matter and can
teach the young pitchers many a trick
of inside baseball.
Otto is rather a handy man with the
hickory, pastihg the pellet last season
in close to a hundred games for an
average of .278. which will, no doubt,
make him an object of respect to the
southern league slabmen.
Otto isn't very enthusiastic over the
pay check Hirsig has offered him and
has entered a vigorous protest. but this
difference will no doubt be adjusted i'm
time for the spring training.

T~RoM Virginia comes the report


T~ROM Virginia comes the report
that the University OF Viz
ginia and The University Of
Georgia are on the edge Of signing
contract for two games OF foot
ball. the first 10 be played either at
Richmond or Charlottesville next
fan and the next one to be played
ia Georgia and presumably at At
lanta.
over at Charlottesville they seem
TO think that the thing is all ar
ranged. and maybe it is. though
Georgia hasn't had much to say
about it.
Virginia wanted two games in
what Richmond papers refer to as
"the South" in order that two
might be played on the trip that
brings Virginia into this section of
the country. Next year it is Van
derbilt's turn to go to Virginia, SO If
Georgia signs, II win nave to do
likewise. This viii mean that the
following year the Virginia team
will do the travelling, and it is only
reasonable to suppose that the game
will be played in Atlanta
u HE Tech teams naturally have
first call on Atlanta, The Yellow
Jackets are entitled to preference
in dates. But it is hoped by local
fans that Georgia or some other
college viii take advantage of the
open dates in Atlanta, in order
that there may be football in Al
liant every Saturday of the next
football season. In the season just
passed, there were several open
dates. when the Tech team was on
the road II is a shame that this
should happen. Atlanta Is cork
ing football town. and should have
plenty of games. Also 1t is a city

ONE OF the interesting features Of

Gently closed was the timing by DR..
c. 2. Hutchins, director Of physical
training at Indiana university, OF
the actual play in a football game.
His figures showed that there was
actual play in progress in but 10
minutes and Is seconds Of game
that went four fun l5-minute quar-
tiers.
II has been so often charged
against football that it was a game
too eNhaustius ON its participants
The fact that the men play only

was as follows:
Morris may or may not have
known before leaving Atlanta that
he was going to fight his sparring
partner. On the morning Of the
fight he did know that he was 60
ing to meet Heating. He and his
manager both told Chattanooga
fight fans that Heating had been
his sparring partner. Morris want
ed it announced from the ring that
Williams was no other than Keat-
ing. But the club refused to do so.
Then Morris and his manager went
to the newspaper men and told
them who Williams really was. But
the newspaper men, at any rate
one Of them, said he would not
make the announcement, as besides
being sporting editor he was one of
the owners of the club. And he
had rather bunk his readers than
to knock the show and thereby lose
a few dollars that would come
through the gate.
A fine situation! No wonder the
fight fans of the South have been
forced to put up with fakes, hunks
and f1ascos. When a sporting editor
refuses to tell his readers the truth
to gain for himself a few extra dol
lars, it's time that he resigned his
position.
M HlLE this may not give Nor
wv ris an entirely clean bill, it
really shouldn't bar him from fight
ing. I had a long talk with Nor
ris yesterday and he seems to feel
very badly about the suspicion that
has been cast on him.
LAS soon as l found out that
was to fight Heating / asked the
club promoters to call off the
match" said Carl They refused
to do it. l couldn't sidestep, or
Chattanooga fans would have said
l was afraid of Williams. SO l
went on and gave him terrible
beating. When I got through with
him his face was cut to ribbons.
and | don't believe he will be able
to fight again for many weeks"
M ORRIS was willing to call off
4Ahis fight with Al Kubiak here
Tuesday night. But after having
investigated the Chattanooga case
/ advised him to go through with
Kubiak and vindicate himself.
Kubiak and Morris will cut Tues
day nights gate rs and %. There
doesn't seem to be a chance in the
world that the men have an "un-
derstanding." Morris will be dead
one forever if there is any fake

dition win exhaust himself with
the exercise.
THE Carlisle Indians are planning
next year to make a Considera-
bic study OF Canadian football, and
expect to play at least one game in
Canada next year, under the Cana e.
dian rules It VIII be remembered
that the season just passed Carlisle
played a picked team in Canada,
half the game at American college
football and half at Canadian Rug
by The Carlisle players won at
both styles OF game. But both teams
are determined to go more care
fully into the new style Of play.
and to try conclusions next fan
Coach Glenn Warner Of the m
dams, made a careful study Of the
game in Canada and arrived at the
following conclusions about 1t:
In the Canadian game the diff
Guilty of gaining ground consis-
tently Is so great that possession
OF the bah is not at all impor-
tant, and, consequently. the
Canadian players can take all
sorts OF chances TO pull Off a long
run. since they are sure that n
they lose the ball il win be only
matter of fow plays until they
again have possession OF it,
whereas in the American inter
collegiate game, possession of the
ball is SO important that the
tendency is TO adopt only such
methods in advancing the BAN as
are reasonably sure not TO lose
any ground and on which there is
little danger OF fumhling.
The game between Carlisle and
the Canadians proved conciusively
that tackling and defensive tactics
have been more highly developed
IN the states than in Canada.
since the Canadians were unable
to gain ground consistently
against the American defense 1t
IS true that occasionally they
pulled off runs of from Is to 30
yards by means OF their long side
passes, but it is also true that
these tactics resulted in a loss Of
ground to the Canadians more Of
ten than they succeeded. and.
therefore, it was proved to my sat
isfaction that such plays. al
though played ny masters of the
art of passing and handling the
ball, are too uncertain and danger
GUS to be of any advantage to our
own college teams.
In the Canadian rugby game any
kicked bah which goes over the
opponents goal line and is dowued
