W THEN folks get talking about the
w Athletics infield they generally
w mention Collins, McInnis and
Baker and speak lovingly of their bat
ting averages, and then, as KIND OF
afterthought, they say:
"Oh, YES, and Jack Barry!"
Ball players viii tell you a different
story. Men on rival teams maintain
that Barry is as important a part OF
the Philadelphia infield as any of his
three co-workers, and that he does not
receive as much credit as he has coming
to him for his playing, John j. Barry
is a tireless toiler, and judgment Is his
middle name. He Is one OF the shrewdest
shortstops in the league, and, while the
moving picture rights to him off the
field would have no particular value,
Connie" Mack, rated as considerable
authority, asserts that when Barry IS
out of his infield it Is all torn apart.
This was proved late in August, this
year, the Athletics being forced to go
for about three weeks with Barry absent
because of a strained leg. 1t was feared,
for time that the Cleveland club would
overtake them because of the resultant
shakv condition of the inner defences.
Barry is equipped with one of those
quiet running engines which make little
noise, but which get results. He is in
no sense a display player. You seldom
know he is around until you take a look
at the box score. His appearance is not
prepossessing, either in street OF baseball
clothes. and he has one of those boards
which discourages the barber. It is the
sort that, while one side of his face is

EADING middleweights

EADING middleweights of the
country have evidently made up
IL their minds to get together and
settle the question of supremacy the
coming fall and winter. During the
1912-1913 season it was a hard matter
to get the real classy mlddIeWelShIS
together, but now they are anxious
to mix. One of the classiest matches
in that division has been closed for
Milwaukee, September, -, bringing to-
gether Eddie McGOOrty, the Wisconsin
champion, and Frank Klaus, the Pitts
burg bearcaL who aspires, along with
McGOOrty, Jack Dillon and Jimmy
Clabby, to the championship
Ready for Real Test.
McGOOrty and Klaus We're matched
for Milwaukee IN 1910, but at the 1lth
hour the Oshkosh boy was taken III
and the bout had TO be called off. Both
have gone along since then, meeting
the best in the land and they are now
ready for the real test. Klaus claimed
extra attention by his defeat of the
great French boxer, George Carpen-
tier, but as it was on a foul in the 10th
round the Erenchman had a good alib1
and made counter claim The trouble
at the time, however, was the fact that
Carpenter had made a weight too low
and suffered the consequences. Both
Klaus and McGOOrty must figure with
chance to get on with the Indianapolis
boy, who has as good claim as any
one to the title just now.
McGOOrty Not Taking Chances.
McGOorty has learned a lesson about
condition and he viii not take any
more chances, no matter how soft the
bout may appear to him. He will not
try to make a weight below his nor
NAL mark, either, for he discovered
when he met Mike Gibbons that while
he made the weight at ringside he
Slapped the strength he should have
had in reserve for such a contest HIS
matches with Gus Christie and others
have also opened his eyes and he viii
probably be in proper shape for his
future matches, in TACT, ne VIII nave
to if he expects to be contestant for
the worlds middIeweight title. The
men are very evenly matched, with
Klaus the infighter and McGoOrty the
cleVerer at long range They are both
seeking higher honOrs in the ring and
therefore cannot afford to take a
chance of any kind, that is, chance
of being out of shape
other Good Matches in Sight
There should be plenty of good
matches in sight between the middle
weights, for there are other good men
besides the big trio of aMcGOOrty, Dill
Ion and Klaus. Jimmy Clabby has not
gone to Australia as he expected to, and
will make matters interesting for any

For over a year after Johnson beat
Burns, Sam pestered the Golden Smile
Kid for a bout. He offered to find
backing for 100000 that he could beat
Johnson, whereupon Johnson assented
to bout. But when Sam came to run
down the men who promised to put up
the dough, they had speed to burn
and refused to be caught.

Johnson the big end of any match thew
