Of the activities of the National Wo-
mems Life Saving League, which has
now established branches all over the
United States. Many Of the most in
fiuential women in the country have
become members, the object being to
encourage swimming and all forms of
Iife-saVing methods among women.
They hope, among other things, to
make swimming a part of the regU-
lar education in the public schools.
In Great Britain, Germany and many
other European countries children
learn to swim at the same time they
write and read. Thus the general
health of the population is improved
and many lives are saved.
Mrs. Uncle Sam hopes to see the
same plan adopted in this country.

Editor The Day Book:
AS a reader of your daily, it affords
me much pleasure to note that you
are helping Chicago maintain her self
respect by bringing to her citizens
attention the true facts in the tele-
phone deal. Why are not the big Chi
cago dailies aiding in this fight? 1
will appreciate it if you will refer this
question to your legal department,
giving me my answer through your
columns:
Can the Telephone Trust, if they
take over the automatic telephone,
enforce collection of back bills of the
Automatic Telephone Company. If
nv information is correct there is
upward of 100000 of outstanding
collections which the Automatic
Company have wiped" off their
books through the medium of their
adjusting department, who have
taken in some cases as low as ten
cents on the dollar in the settlement
of telephone bills. According to the
terms of the Automatic contract, it's
terms cannot be changed by anyrep-
resentatiVe of the company, nor can
any agreement be entered into on
any other basis than the terms of the
original contract. Hence if the con-

'THICAGO, Sept. 20.-When Viii

Freddie Welsh and went to VancoU-

But unbiased parties admitted that

they say this when Bud" Young

Now Richie is having his troubles,
and perhaps the San Francisco pro-
motors are laughing at him. They
failed to come across with all that
money they promised him in Vancou-
yer, and Willie duCked town, calling
off the big international match. Now
they are afraid to Iuli off a big null
in San Francisco until the verdict in
the Young Willard case is rendered
farther south, and Richie is forced to
come East and try the ten-round
game to get the money.
Milwaukee Wants Richie.
Milwaukee is awaiting Willie with
open arms. The new and licensed
clubs in that city will give him almost
anything to box ten rounds there, be
cause they know they can get a good
man to meet him. Already they are
dickering with him over terms and on

But what would Welsh do with ths

Composite Two Series.
Pitchers Records.

TIME Giants, as we note, have the
edge on their American League
arch rivals, the National Leag-
uers having won six out of eleven
games. But coming down to the nu-
mercal angle the Athletics have
shown TO better advantage when both
big series are combined. They out
batted the Giants, scored the greater
number of runs and made less err
rors
There will never be another worlds
series like that Of 1905. as regards
the scoring. Five games were con-
tested, and every one of them pro-
duced a string of ciphers for the los
ing team. Four times the Athletics
were on the receptive end of the ne
roes, while the Giants We're treated to
string of circles in one contest.
Bender was the efficient moundman
for the Athletics in that notable vic
tory which saved the Philadelphians
from complete rout and humiliation.
That series was remarkable mas
much as MatheWson, who is now at
the zenith of his pitching power,
tWirled three Shut-Out victories. He
yielded only fourteen measly hits in
the entire three games, and never
once was he threatened with being
scored on. Matty's feat probably will
be unapproaChed al long as world S
series are the fad.
Matty registered his fourth straight
victory over the Athletics in world s
series strife at the outset of the 1911
clash between these two teams. He
won the first game, beating the In
dian, Bender, but he. allowed the
American Leaguers their only run in
the second inning. Up to this time
Matty had pitched % scoreless in
nings against his foes.
big Six" Is Unlucky.
Then fortune frOwned on the big
fellow He was well on his way to
his fifth successive triumph in the
third game of the series when Baker
stepped in with his renowned home
run in the ninth inning. tying the
score The Athletics won out in the
eleventh. Matty also started to pitch
the fourth game. but a flock of hits
and runs resulted in his second
straight defeat and his Withdraw wal
from the series.
That stOlid Redskin, Bender, shared
the calcium with Home Run" Baker
in the ARRAY of two years ago He
triumphed in the fourth game over
Matty, and made the championship q
sinecure for the Quaker folks by out
pitching Ames, Wiltse and MarGuard
in the sixth and final tilt of the Sc
ries.
Matty has been eminently success
full in worlds series games and al
though he lost his greatest game in
last years decisive battle with the
Red SoX, he was proclaimed the real
hero Of the series.
This will be Matty's fourth appear
ance in the big series. He admits
that the inroads Of time are begin
ming to have their effect. but he will
not admit that Bender will show .
superior brand of pitching when they
meet again. Bender VS.. Matty for the
fourth time is not al all unlikely

Europeans Adopt Our
Methods to Trim Us

The prediction is made by j. w.
Spaldiug. vice president of the Amer
lean olympic committee, that Eu-
ropean athletes will give the United
States team much harder and closer
battle for Olympic honurs at Berlin
in 1916 than heretofore.
As a result of his observations
while abroad he asserts that Ameri-
can track and field performers will
have to compete up to the high stand
ard in previous meets If they are
to win the point trophies at the next
Olympic games.
Athletics are being put on an or
ganized basis in the leading countries
of Europe, and American methods
and trainers are rapidly bringing the
standards up 10 a point where they
compare favorably with those of the
United States.

n DHERENTS of the Giants and
~ Athletics experienced a slight
state of perturbation last week
when both leading teams encountered
the inevitable slump. 1t lasted long
enough to make the followers of these
two teams skeptical of their favorites'
chances of landing the pennant in
their respective major leagues.
Now all is quiet and serene. Those
who idolize the Giants and Athletics
have recovered sufficiently from the
shock to resume their interrupted ar
gumentation of how these teams will
fare in the impending worlds series.
Delving deep into the dope" we
drag out a handful of statistics that
may or may not give a line on how
the coming struggle will terminate.
But figures are figures, and we here
with present a batch of same that
furnishes some food for thought.
We present the records of the two
previous worlds series between the
Giants and Athletics and then We will
dwell on the figures:
