Which recalls the sad fate of an
other first baseman who also
reached the heights that he might
be toppled to the depths, Harry
Davis is this man. You know it
was generally believed that Davis
had quite as much to do with the
success of the Athletics as Con-
ME Mack. He was hailed as a
winner before he had ever man
aged a ball club, and the Cleve-
land fans scared about as high as
fans can before their faYorites have
actually demonstrated their supe-
riority. And Davis wasn't even
present when the schedule was fin
ished. All the reputation he had
built up in years was lost in a sin
gle season.
Merkle Also in Danger.
Down In New York they claim
that the much buffeted Fred Mer-
kie will know what it is to be beat
en- out of a place as regular.
Merkle, termed the prize bone
head" of all time for doing what
every other player was in the habit
of doing and then hailed as a man
game enough to come from behind
and show his real worth, is said to
be due to sit on the bench or figure
in a trade.
Claude Rossman is another first
sacker who has been up and down.
He was about the only man on the
Detroit team in 1907 who showed
why the Tigers were better than a
second division ball club And
away he went to the minors.
Jiggs Donahue is another first
sacker who heard the wild plaudits
of the fans and then dropped out of
sight. Jiggs' first basing in the
memorable struggle between the
Sox and the Cubs in 1906 was one
of the big events of that civil war
struggle. And Jiggs now is down
and out.
Tom Jones Also Stunq.
Tom Jones is another first sack
er with whom fate fiirted. and Tom
surely was singed. 1t sure looks
like the fate of the game is always
boosting some first sacker and that
when the fellow with the mitt gets
UP there this same fate turns and
gives him a nice, healthy swat.

South VS.. North, East VS.. West
On Gridirons TodayWi1l Clean
Up the International Situation
BY Monty.

MAST versus West and North
versus South are the wild
calls of the football world
today. Almost all general interest
is absorbed by the two big inter
sectional conflicts that head the
card-Harvard against Vanderbilt
at Cambridge and Pennsylvania
versus Michigan at Philadelphia.
The intersectional football of the
year-that IS, on a big scale-will
be cleaned up practically at one
sitting, and after the shades of
night fall this evening the argu-
fiers will have just about all of
their evidence and dope at hand
and can proceed to make deduc-
lions to proclaim resoundlngly for
the benefit of both friend and foe.
Aside from Harvard, the Big
Three will see the day go by with
out scrap that has any particu-
lar Importance. And even the
Crimson can neither benefit nor
harm its chances for the Eastern
title by victory or the reverse in
the tussle with the Southern score
anna ssers.

at New Haven, though looked to
as sure win for the Blue, may.

bears no particular weight toward

Chance Davis Rossman Jones and Donahu Chased by
FATE SURE LIKES TO FLIRT WITH FIRST SACKERS

Well it's by no means certain
that Stahl will be able to play next
year. He injured his ankle before
the close of the season. He had to
get back on it before it had en-
tirely healed, and there is now the
chance that he will be unable to go
through a strenuous schedule,
which would be tough shedding for
the Red Sox. They wouldn't lose
the services of Stahl, of course.
But they would lose his first base
play. Stahl would sit on the
bench and direct affairs. And Jake
may entertain the notion that he
would do his team just as much
good as If he were out there grab
bling the wide throws. Which may
and may not be true. Only time
can tell. But Stahl has this in
his favor: If he discovered that sit
ting on the bench wasn't helping
his men up there, he could jump
out and play. If his ankle would
permit of course.
StahIs predicament isn't the first
or last time that fate has stepped
In and handed first baseman a
fine wallop. In fact, fate seems to
have selected the first basemen for
her enemies. There's Frank l..
Chance, p. L., Big Bear and pos
SCISSOR of half dozen other titles,
Looked like fate was working to see
just how high the boss of the Cubs
could be boosted He won pen
nants and worlds championships,
He did about everything it was
possible to do in baseball. Then he
received one grand kick.
Chance Has Reason to Grin.
But Chance got one good laugh
on his Nemesis all right. When
he left Chicago for his California
home he had a bunch of mighty
good coupons in his grip or strong
box and he was assured of several
days work in clipping them.

Harvard.


This is the afternoon of
Vanderbilt's Big Test. For
the first time in all football history
a Commodore eleven plays Har-
ward. 1t is the first time in the
memory of football men here
when the Crimson has ever sched-
uled a football game with a team
from the South.
It is a game in which age,
weight, experience, prestige, train
ing, coaching and everything else
point toward Harvard-or seem to.
Only one advantage are folks here
really willing to concede to the men
from Tennessee-and that's mental
attitude.
The difference in the mental at
titude of the two teams is going
to play big part in that contest,
which is fact few football fol-
lowers realize. Harvard is over
confident; Vanderbilt isn't. And,
furthermore, in all the Commo-
dores real big games. they always
play way above their form. as a re-
suit of the wonderful pre- game
talks that Coach McGugin always
hands his players.
Harvard Expects Cinch.
Harvard is expecting In Wander
bilt light team, which, they will
admit, is fast and may know some
football" yet they consider the
Commodores a much easier eleven
than the big Brown team. For this
reason 1t is now the idea Of Coach
Percy Haughton to use a team
composed almost entirely of substi-
tutes. The Vanderbilt game is fol-
lowed by tough scrap with Dart
mouth, and the Green Mountain
boys are more than likely to give
Harvard far more trouble than
they did the Princeton Tigers. Aft
er that comes the clash with Yale.
Houghton is not going to take any
chances on having any such stars
rs Wendell and Brickley crippled
before these two hard games, and
it has even been limited that the
wonderful toe Of Charlie Brickley
may not flash but for half of the
struggle with the Commodores.
Should all this really be the case.
Vanderbilt is likely to get such a
jump on Harvard that even if the
regulars are rushed in TO stall off
defeat the change may come too
late.
Before every game Of conse-
9uence Dan McGugin gets his play
ers around him and what he says to

he is so highly strung during the
hard battles that his whole being
Is plunged into the minutest detail
Of the play.
On more than one occasion be
tween the halves of some big game
every player on the team has re-
turned to the game with tears
streaming down his cheeks. What
Dan McGugin has said has stuck.
And the result? Well, when a
man faints after the first half from
sheer pain and is not able to stand
up until time for the beginning of
the second half, then goes in and
plays ball like a demon. the result
