years the Athletics have won
the American League pennant,
the bunting being tucked away last
week. In the early days Of the
American League-in 19o2-when
John McGraw termed the Athletics
the White Elephants. Connie Mack
took his band to the front for their
first pennant. He repeated in 1905,
and they lay back for a few years
In 1910 he got out where the water
was smooth and brought his shell over
the line in front, and gained so much
Roadway that he was not OVertaken
in 1911. There was weakening In
1912, but the team has made pracu-
Cally a runaway race Of It this sea-
son.
When a team can remain in the
lead from the day Of the seasons
opening until It closes-with the ex-
ception of one day-it can be re-
garded as Outcla ssing every other club
in the league. That Is what the Ath-
letics have done this year. They
were out of first place just one day.
That day was thirteen days after the
season opened, when Ray Heating

Shibe Park and the Yankees beat the
Mackmen. Washington won that day
and went into first place. Washing
ton got back into it's normal speed
the next day, and the Mackmen drift
ed back into the leading position, and
have been there ever since. Washing
ton, by being in the lead for one day,
has something to boast of. The Ath-
letics are the class Of the Ameri-
can League. They are far in advance
Of their rivals. There Ia no com
parison-
It's pretty much the same IN the
National League. The Giants are this
season winning their fifth pennant
for McGraw. With FIVE pennants
slowed away, Mack and McCraw are
apt to be considered the heads OF the
pennant trust Jennings with three
remnants is Macks closest rival, while

for the East and the same number
for the West. No winner OF an
American League pennant has reach
ed the 100 mark In the point OF

water mark OF .5Ss. The Cubs, in
winning in 1906 put up record
which has not been equaled since,
they capturing 116 games, for an
average OF 1853 The lowest figure
that ever won a pennant in the Ma
tional League was SOB, by Hanlon's
Brooklyn club in 1900. Boston's los

WAGNER PICKS
DEMAREE TOBE
STAR Of SERIES
By Hans Wagner.
Statement by National Leagues
Slugging Shortstop,)

DITTSBURG, Oct. Al wouldn't
be surprised to see Al Dem
aree fool the Athletics about
batted against both Mathewson and
Vanguard and may have learned
something which will help them solve
their deliveries. Demaree is a new
conner, though he is not a kid by
any means. He has a delivery which
has fooled me often this season. He
puts on speed when you would swear
he Is pitching slow ones. l watched
him warming up before one of the
games he pitched against the Pirates,
and 1 thought he had no smoke at
all, but when l stepped to the plate
he was shooting them over like can
non balls, yet he was not using a
motion which Indicated much eXer-
ton.
OF course, MathewsOn's head Will
help him in the big series, but the
chances are against ChTisty being as
effective as he has been in similar
series in the past Age tells on the
best OF players. Matty has not been
30 successful lately as he once was,
but he uses his brains about as much
as any pitcher in the business, and
he Is likely to get by when a man
with more stuff would fail.
MY opinion is that the hitting in
AFI the worlds series will depend
very largely on whether one or the
othr teams Is suffering from a slump.
BY that I mean to express my belief
n the conviction that when a man
is batting at his best he can hit any
twirler in the world and when he is
Dff his stride a novice can fool him.
I've studied slumps, but I've never
1eard OF a recipe for curing one ex-
cept pegging away till your eye
ONES back.
Tesreau has a puzzling delivery
put I imagine he will have more
rouble beating the Athletics than the
5ther Giant hurlers, because he has
acked control nearly all season. In
hese post season games 1t usually
~equires alright twirling to win.
When Tesreau's splitter Is breaking
light for him he Is hard to beat, but
re has a lot Of trouble in getting 1t
,ver the plate.
ZACH series has had its pitching
7 star IN the past and I would not
g surprised to see Dem8ree out in
ront this fall Matty may come
Trough with some great games, but
he chances are against It. He
Etched very clever bali last fall, yet
could not win, and he's a year
lder now.
Marquard Is a bit erratic and re-
uires more coaching and aid from
is mates than Mathewson. He is
here, though, when he is right. |
ave found that it's a good thing to
mash away at the RUDE.

Winning pennants is one thing.
winning worlds championships is an
other Twice before have these mas
ter minds of baseball met in the
worlds series. McGraw triumphed in
1905, his Giants winning four games
in five, every game being a shut-out.
In the game they won the Athletics
scored three runs. Two years ago
the pendulum swung the other way,
the Athletics winning four OF six
games, twice going into extra in
nings This year they battle again.
Bris Lord is missing from the Mack
men, while Becker and Devore are
no longer with the Giants. These are
the only changes. Mack has all his
seasoned veterans, though some Of
them, like Harry Davis and Danny
Murphy, may not break into the box
score, while McGraw has Mathew
son, Marquard and all the rest Of
his luminaries all primed for tho call
to arms.
Chsnoe Won Four remnants.
II Is with these pawnA that Nc
Graw and Mack viii strive for the
rubber honors Not in tho history Of
the world series has the same pair Of
managers met three times. Frank
Chance won four pennants while at
the head Of the Cubs, but his opponent
was Hughie Jennings IN two Of the
post-season affairs, while Fielder
Jones and Connie Mack furnished tire
opposition in the other two. Jen-
nings had Fred Clarke to meet after
fighting hts two losing battles with
Chance. This struggle for the odd
mpionship between Inc two vet
eran managers OF the New York and
Philadelphia teams will be one Of the
interesting side issues OF the inter
league warfare.

TO SERVE MEALS
AT STATE FAIR

The executive committee Of the
Delaware State Fair Association at a
meeting yesterday afternoon, decided
to allow the ID. b. Jones Company the
privilege Of serving meals at the COM
ing fair. Heretofore restaurant faci-
lities at the fair have been lax and
under the new arrangement, meals
will be served during the week. The
committee at the meeting also receiv-
ed a report of the Board of Education
granting a half holiday to the pupils
of the public school on Tuesday Sep
tember 9. Owing to the fact that
many children living near the Mary
land line attending schools in that
state, tickets will be sent to all
schools in Cecil County.
