MACKS AND PH|LU|ES
GET PACIFIC STARS
0'Rourke, Just in From Coast,
Brings Good News
With Him.

PHILADELPHIA, December Fresh
from the golden west and trimming over
with good news for Connie Mack and
Horace Fogel. Joe ORourke bounded into
town yesterday after a successful season
club through the risors of an extensive
Pacific Coast League campaign. One OF
O'Rourke's first duties after Misunderstanding
his arrival among his friends was to hunt
up Messrs. Mack and Fogel and inform
them that they had each grabbed a stal
of the west via the draft process.
The players in question are Pitcher
Gatty, giant southpaw picked up by the
Phils. and Shortstop Orr, who belongs t.
Mack. Both played under O.Rourke the
past season and naturally he is fully
aware of their qualities and abilities
Orr played shortstop. on the team while
ORourke was his side partner at second
base. ---a-.
Orr said O'RourlSe ''is about as fas
as they make them. He is only young
ster. having just turned twenty years. He
was with q school team until last fall q
year ago. He has got the greatest arm
in the country. The way that lad can line
the ball across the diamond and put the
ball right in a first baseman's mitt is q
wonder. He covers lots of ground and is
as fast as a rabbit on his feet.
1T wouldn't surprise me a bit to SET
Mack develop him into an outfielder, un
less he is in need of utility infielder
This man Pete Daley. the outfielder thai
Connie secured a couple of weeks ago, i:
also a good player. He can hit and hs
can bunt and he is also very fast on hi:
% hn h,1 i,,
style ana he pulls down those that HI
goes after"
In speaking of Gatty. the southpaw
O'ROurke said
Wait until the fans here see this fel
low Gatty. He stands six feet two inche!
| high and he can whip them in. 1 honest
ly believe that his fast ball has NOR,
speed to it than that of any left-hande
in the country. He should make a sta
under catcher like Charlie DOOM
O'ROurke was fortunate enough to eS
cape the epidemic of typhoid fever which
struck the coast teams last fall. II
speaking of the death of Heine Heitmul
Ter Of Los Angeles. who formerly played
with the Athletics. O'Rourke said:
Sixteen players of the Pacific coas

died from the disease. Heine was strick
en- all of sudden. He had been feeling
bad and had fever, but he persisted il
playing.
"One afternoon he went to bat so veal
that he could hardly stand up Their.
were three balls and two strikes called or
him. The pitcher let the next ball 81
and as he did Heine started to topple.
He fell over on his face directly acros:

carried off the field and three days latel
he was dead"

ing the load is one of the secrets of me-
chanical success. 1t was orrowed origi-
nally from observation Of the human ma
chine.
Physical exercise does to the mind what
care does to the delicate arrangement OF
devices that control the locomotive, such
as the throttle. the reverse. the gears, the
lubricator. the injector, the air brake sys-
tenn, etc.
The mind. like those very important ar
rangements to govern the locomotive, has
its Office in governing the entire human
being.
You can't separate one from the other.
You cannot segregate the mind from the
body and get the best results.
The locomotive that has been run hard
has been crowded and abused-goes to the
scrap pile the quickest. And every time
you find yourself on a dead center, re-
member the scrap heap-the kind with
marble mlestOnes-whence there is no es-
cape.
