Another of the most important series OF
games now being played in the amateur
league will take place this afternoon.
when the Bankers and Cornell play. The
Trust Company and Paperhangers will
meet in their last regularly scheduled
contest, although there are several other
games that yet remain to be played;
there are two tie and two postponed
meetings from early in the season.
1t is very probable that the game today
will find Ffenle and Sullivan working
against each other. Those two men have
engaged in the best battle yet played pc
tween the two clubs. and Sullivan IS the
only man on the Cornell staff who has
yet shown the ability to keep the Bankers
from hitting the ball consistently Inc
Bank team has won three out OF the last
four contests played against Cornell, and
Sullivan was the pitcher who made the
victory for the Paperhangers possible
Fienle has been uniformly successful IN
his games. and he will be started for the
Trust Company. There will probably De
no changes in the lineup Of the two
teams.

GERMANY OFFERS PLAN
TO LEGAlIZE BETTING
Bill Shortly to Be Offered Parlia-

BERLIN, July IL 1919.
The 'booknaker question is one which
has long agitated German sporting cir
cles. For the last thirty years book
making. according to the strict letter of
.he law. has been "verboten.'' like so
many things in the fatherland. Yet the
profession has contrived to run its bust
ness and prosper to fair extent. In
every second beer shop. in the hair dress
ing saloons and in tobacconists estab-
lishments bets. subrosa. are made.
Now. the whole position is about TO be
changed. The government has been con-
sidering the matter. and a bill has been
drafted which will have the effect of
giving state recognition to the book
maker. The measure will shortly be laid
before parliament.
In Germany, as in France. the pari-
mutuel system is in vogue, and the gov
eminent at present taxes all the trans

Of 10 20 per cent. On the Berlin race

Now, il IS proposed 10 reduce that tax

lose no revenue by the decrease as the

receives.
AS to the bookmaker, the bill provides

|COOMBS WILL RETURN SOON
TO BOLSTER UP ATHLETICS
Mack's Iron Man Said to Be Nearly Well
and Almost Ready to Resume
Work on the Firing Line.

Manager Mack will bring his men back
to Shibe Park this week-Thursday-to
meet the western teams. Detroit ~.
Louis. Cleveland and Chicago will play
four games in the order named. With a
lead of nearly ten full games over Cleve-
land. the second team, there is small
cause for worry during the home stand.
In fact, the advantage should be improv-
ed, and IL it is the pennant will be prac-
tically assured the Elephants Septem-
Der 1.
The western trip was not as successful
as We had expected. Three defeats in
Detroit out of five games and an even
break in the six games I'm Chicago cut
into their record greatly. But Cleveland
was losing at the game time. and since
the Mackmen won two out OF three on
the Maps home grounds the temporary
slump did no great damage.
Clarke Griffith. manager of the Wash
ington team, has been doing lot or
talking recently. He claims that his
club will start to win now and Will pass
the Athletics, because the Mack pitchers
do not have the class, and Bender ara
Plank are due to blow" At that, the
Senator'S look more formidable than
Cleveland. and Chicago Is more likely
to cause trouble for the Athletics than
either the Senators or Maps.
Just as long. though. as Connie has
his team intact, especially his infeld.
and the pitchers can hold the opponents
as they have been doing. IL is foolish TO
worry.
The Phillies showed signs OF revived
spirit last week. They won four straight
from st. Louis. counting Saturdays
triumph and two out of four from Gin
cinnati. Those victories enabled them to
hold second place. although they did not
gain on the leading Giants. There seems
to be new life in Dooin's team. the pitch
ers are doing better work and a winning
streak is possible
Another game will be played with Gin
cinnau today then four in three days
with Chicago. after which the Quakers
begin their western invasion in Pitts
burgh The chances of the Phillies get
ting back into the race hinge upon their
record in the west. Some experts pre-
tend to believe that the Giants are due
for slump while travelling. If they do
hit the rocks and the Phillies do
well as they did when they were travel
ing in June. there may be a quarrel for
first place along about September I.
Pittsburgh is the team which is like
~ to upset some of the dope" not only
for Philadelphians, but New Workers.
The Pirates have gone through the cast
like q reaper through wheat losing only
one game and that in Boston. They
play New York at the Polo Grounds
this week and if they can do some
damage there, the Giants will be brought
back nearer 10 the field with a chance
for the Philies. Pittsburgh or Chicago
to overtake them.

PHILADELPHIA, July 21.-Last week
several base ball fans were discussing
the probability of the Athletics meeting
the Giants in the 1913 worlds series. One
expressed the opinion that Manager
Mack would find it difficult to outgen-
eral Manager McGraw this year because
the Elephants were shy on the pitching
talent necessary for such tight strug-
gles Well. it's much too early to worry
about that
However. the writer picked up a bit or
information yesterday which not only
makes the chances of beating the New
Workers next fall brighter, but also
makes 1t appear tha- the American
League pennant quarrel win not be so
grueling toward the finish. The infor-
nation was that John Wesley Combs is
so nearly a well man that he will soon
join his mates at Shibe Park-August /
is a possible date for his return.
Coombs has been recovering from an
attack of typhoid fever on his Maine
farm He has been raking hay. helping
reap the wheat and dol, other summer
jobs in the fields. John Wesley. accord
ing to reports, weighs lie pounds, and is
wild to get back where he can pitch a
ton by a physician will soon be made,
and If he is as fit as he thinks he is
Mack will be a happy man.
Base ball men realize what Coombs'
return will mean to the Athletics. He
is a winning pitcher. Although Jack
may twirl game only once in a week
or ten days, and may not be permitted
to attempt that for several weeks after
he done his uniform, the fact that the
famous Iron Man" is with the team
will encourage the Maclmen, who have
shown signs of slumping in recent
games
Probably Coombs will not be needed
in the games to be played before the
American League pennant race is de-
cided That he will be around. how
ever, accustoming himself to hard work.
with an occasional start in a league
contest, and preparing to face the Giants
or the National League champions in
the worlds series games, will buoy up
the Athletics and have contrary effect
on the New York players. who know
that with Bender, Coombs and Plank
Connie has a trio that will be hard TO
beat in "A short series.
The Athletics have not won The Ameri-
can League pennant Yet Neither have
the Giants captured the National League
flag Therefore it's bit early to talk
about the worlds series. But fans sure
do like TO know that the wise Mr.. Mack
has had an ace in the hole. particularly
since that ace is John Wesley Coombs.
