CLEVELAND, Nov. 22.-Joe Bir-
mingham does not share the
general opinion Of other man
ayers that the Athletics will repeat
In the next pennant race. Here is
the way the Cleveland manager sizes
up the Athletics:
Il do not believe the Athletics will
put up better fight in 1914 than
they did last season, and, believing
this, l will say that another team will
have an even, if not a better, chance
of winning the honors
Connie Mack will l believe, ad
nit that the Athletics had more than
their share of luck last season. 1t is
customary to allow for a reasonable
amount of good fortune, but the pur-
veyor of good luck spilled his bucket
over Mack and Macks team last sea-
son. 1t is hard to understand how
there can be a repetition next season.
"Mack's pitching staff will not, in
my belief, be any better in 1914 than
1t was last season. | doubt if ii will
be as good. Plank and Bender are
aging, and. admitting this has been
an annual cry, there is bound to
come time when it will turn out
true. Plank is close to 80 years old ;
Bender is &c. the laws of nature will
not permit them to go much farther.
While Mack was having his luck
last season Cleveland was hit hard
because of the injury to Steen, the
failure of Falkenberg to pitch win
ming ball for several weeks and the
loss of effectiveness of Vean Gregg
Gregg displayed his true form in the
post season series with Pittsburg, and
l am confident that he will continue
the form in 1914.

NEW YORK. Nov. 22.-Charles
" White, the veteran boxing ref
cree and perhaps the keenest
Judge Of boxing in America to-day. in
an interview, said Packey Mcfarland.
of Chicago, is the best man in the
ring to-day.
"Packey knows more about the
finer points of boxing and fghting
than any other man have seen since
Joe Cans was in the heyday of his
youth, said White Il have watched
him perform time and again, and he
uses more of the real inside work of
boxing than any of them.
His defense is practically impene-
trable. and II he elects to lie back
and stall, which he rarely does, it is
beyond the power Of any man To hit
him or feint him into leaving an
opening with Mcfarland boxing
SENS To be a rare mixture OF instinc-
tive ability
He moves around in bout more
than the average spectator thinks,
but he does il in such a way, shut
ding and sliding that no one but the
man who is boxing him appreciates
just how often Packey shifts the
range Moreover he moves to either
side with equal ease and swiftness,
and SO he can avoid a punch that
many another man would be forced
TO take
oON the attack Mcfarland shows
~ at his best lie is "A straight
punCher and fights after the style OF
Cans and the other famous men of
the last decade Coming out of a
club where 'PaCkey' had met some
opponent, l heard "A man say. I can't
understand just how he does it, He
never seemed to move his hands more
than Ave inches
THAT is just why Mcfarland gets
the results He starts his blows right
from position and never pulls his
hands back to telegraph as it is
called in the ring This style OF
straight hitting enables him 20 beat
the average fighter to the punch
&c EIDOM II ever has Mcfarland
~ been known 10 swing punch,
but he gets along better without
swinging So would other boxers II
they realized IT, Every swing leaves
an opening for counter and more

BY Bob New horter.
Captain Georgia Football Team.

TN HERE are times when a man
especially a man unused &c
writing, can not express his
thoughts by means of mere words on
paper, And I'll leave 1t to most any
one, | reckon, If this is not one OF
the times when | can hardly be
blamed for failure to properly eX-
press myself. My feelings over the
result of our battle with Auburn-the
battle that lost us the title of South
ern champions. the most coveted IL
tie In all the lexicon of ttles-are a
strange mixture of sorrow and happi-
ness.
am sorry, of course that Georgia
lost the game. as are 10000 other 10y
al Georgia men, yet | am glad that
our team fought and showed the
spirit that has made Georgia and
terly and to the last ditch, never Civ
ing up even in the face of almost
unbeatable odds. We were defeated
but there is not man on the Geor-
gia team who does not feel that we
gave every ounce of our strength
every bit of our energy and every
atom of our gray matter for the glory
of Georgia. We PLAYED the best game
we knew how-and that was not
good enough.
Bob Has No Excuse.
There Is no excuse | can offer for
our defeat by Auburn and there is no
excuse anyone else could offer. We
were defeated fairly and squarely. in
one of the Cleanest, hardest fought
games | have ever played in. There
was not an instance Of foul play on
the part of Auburn that noticed. and
I think | would have noticed ii had
there been any,
Auburn defeated us simply be-
cause the Alabama school has the
better and stronger team by that !
mean that Auburn was stronger ply
sically--not stronger in the fighting
spirit No team could have fought
harder and with more determine
ton than did the members of the
Georgia team. And even in defeat
the boys are deserving of the praise
and sympathy OF their fellow stu
dents.
l saw Georgia men risk tackles that
ordinarily even the most enthusiastic
football men would look at twice be
fore attempting, they threw them
selves into the bruut Of the battle
with an energy that could not have
been pNCelled.
