f,O TICKETS FOR WORLDS
 SERIES SENT BY MAIL


 Determined that the speculators will not grab off all. the choice seats for the worlds series games this year as they did in 1911. the National Base bali Commission has just issued an or der to the effect that no tickets for any of the games will be sent through the mails. By taking this action the commission, who have absolute charge of the sale of tickets this year, are Of the opinion that the public will get a fair deal as they will be compelled to take their turn in line at the grounds and will only have to pay the face value of a ticket instead oS being forced to pay specula tors double the amount
 For the games in Boston one ticket will be sold for three games which may give the speculators a chance to get their hands tickets, for people who only. intended to see one two games should easily sell the ticket for the remaining games
 August Hermann, chairman of the National Commission, announced in rincinnati that a meeting would be held on Sept 25 to decide upon the schedule and rules that will govern he worlds championship baseball Series

WHAT OUR SEMI-PR0 TEAMS
 ARE DOING ON THE DIAMOND

Mitchell lost the records of that series so we will call to mind the fact that Ray Heating, now with the Yankees, pitched the St. Joseph's to the only victory of the series, the other two resulting in tie games
 Former Mayor Edward T. Bucking- ham has packed his. baseball togs away until next season. He is not all in yet if the game he pitched last Saturday is any criterion as he should have won with any kind of support.
 Mussy Moran of the East Bridge ports pulled off some very bushy stuff last Sunday. While he was waiting his turn at bat, the batter had two strikes called on him and Moran got so worked up because the batter did not swing at them that he threw his cap the ground and tried to jump on it, but he was so excited that he could not see where he had throw n the .cap. Coming to bat Moran was an easy victim by the strikeout route The incident afforded considerable amusement for the spectators and should teach Moran that tactics of this sort don't show any character istics of a good ball player.

YOST HAS PRAISE
 FOR NEW FOOTBALL
MICHIGAN COACH SAYS FOUR DOWNS WILL MAKE GAME
 MORE INTERESTING.

Hurry Up'' Yost, than whom there is none than-whomer in anything in volving football rules, their. applica- ton and their possibilities. likes the new code. There may be coaches who wiring their hands in horror at the thought that the addition of extra down may cause a reversion to the old crushing, 1ine-smashing game, but Yost is not one of them.
 The revised rules appeal to the sage of Michigan chiefly because they make it possible for two fairly evenly result. Under the 1911 code luck was factor to be reckoned with quite as seriously as science, versa tility of at tack and power of defense.''
 Under the old rules,'' complains Yost, where the strength of the two teams was evenly balanced, it was through fiuke or accident. A team might gain fairly consistently out in the middle of the field, but run into an immovable snag within the fifteen surrounding the forward pass and the necessity of making ten yards in three downs against a concentrated defense
 With the limitations removed from the forward pass the physical difficult ties in the way of gaining within the scoring zone will be no greater than will naturally brace when they have been driven back to within a few yards of their goal line, but with a forward pass always threatening they will be forced to play their secondary defense further from the line of scriS11- mage than last fall when the forward pass was autoEnatically barred, almost just as soon as the alta acking team drew within fifteen yards of touch down.
 aT,he elimination of the onside kick will probably result in less kicking the more running. The policy of boot ing the ball up and down the field in the hope of gaining something through a misplay by the opposing backs, will receive a death blow under the new style of play. The onside kick never. was a good play anyhow, since it's success was always depen- dent upon chance. No Kicker, no matter how expert, could ever hope to control the. direction in which the ball would bound.
 The fact that a runner may not be pushed or pulled through an opening by his. tea inmates and the necessity, of having seven men always on the line or scrimmage will prevent a re- turn to the old, pushing, ssma slling able. the coaches to..erun' where last yearethey were -foFceGSto kick
 The public likes a lot of kicking in football, but I believe there was too much of it last year to make the game s interesting sas it might be and will be under the revised code. -

MIKE GIBBONS
 PICKS EASY ONES
HIM TACKLE FALSE ALARMS

After all his talk of going after the real dangerous men of his class. Mike Gibbons is still picking the easy ones. What is worse the promoters are all lowing him to have his own way in the natter With boxing under fire from those who see in it political ammuni- rion, now that election day is ap- preaching, it behooves the promoters 10 keep one-sided matches off their cards Yet Gibbons has been match ed with Tommy Maloney, a boxer who less than year ago, was a second class Hghtweight and was easily beat en by Leach Cross. Since then he has done little ring work but has ta- ken on weight and now claims to be a nliddleweight.
 made recently, boxing enthusiasts do not want to see gore spilled and are rot interested in one-sided bouts Such affairs where one contestant is hopeIessly outclassed by the other creates even more dissa tiSfaction than when the principals are not trying the crowd there must be the element of uncertainty in the bouts They must a5e real contests
 To all appearances the Gibbons-Ma- loney- affair will be a repetition of the Gibbons-Burns, Gibbons-Stein encoun- ters- Neither of these bouts did any thing to enhance the status of boxing and the present mismatch should be called off for the good of the game.
 If Gibbons really has championship calibre there is mo reason why he should refuse a match with Eddie Mo Goorty and the other middleweights who are close to the top of the heap. NcCoorty boxed ten sloyenly rounds with the ancient Johnny Thompson on Monday night and got no better than a draw On that form Gibbons should be able to hold his own with the man from Oshkosh, even though lle would have to give away a few pounds
 It. is generally accepted that Mo Goorty can not do 15s pounds, the mid dieweIght limit, and be at his best. Mona Papke and Dillon are in the same boat. For this reason Gibbons would have an advantage rather than be under a handicap in tackling them.
 If Gibbons is in earnest about trying for the title he will have fine chance to secure that honor in a few months. Tom McCarey the Lost An geles promoter, has announced that he intends to stage another middle weight elimination tournament next January and has invited Gibbons and all the others to participate. As de- cisions are given in California the St. Paul pha ntom can win the title beyQ1d dispute if he is good enough and has the nerve to try.

(By Wagner.o

Will Gene McCann be at the head of the Bridgeport club in 1918? Just now there is 8, lot of speculation up- on that subject. It is known that McCann has not signed for next sea- son and Owner John H. Freeman has not even started negotiations with him.
 One of the club officials when asked about the matter said Me- Cams contract did not expire until next February and for that req son change in managers. Neverthe eless it is the usual custom to give some mo- tice to a manager at the close of the season whether his contract is to be renewed. McCann will not feel the desire to go out and get new players fors next year unless he is assured that he will be signed again as manager.
 There have been rumors that Billy Lush. the former Yale coach and Montreal manager. will be the next club officials. The fact that Lush is to open a sporting goods busin ess in this city may have started the runor.
 Bill Jensens the former New Haven pitcher won game for Detroit against New York yesterday. He strong with men on bases and won out by to 4 The New York Press says of Jensen: Rookie Jensen was McCenneH's twirling rival, and, though he was hit hard, he had lots of sand. The New Works banged away at. Jensen round after round, and anassed fourteen hits, but the kid was steady with men on the bases. Ten of the Hillnen were left marooned on the paths in this game Jensen has the distinction of being the only Detroit player in the first game who did not creep into the base hit coln1n.'
