BERGER SLATED
FOR The CANNERY
Ex Islander Will Not Have Reg
ular White Sox Berth Next
Year Says Cal"

VIII Joe Berger have a regular
berth with the White SoX next year?
Probably not, according TO a line of
dope which Jimmie Callahan has been
feeding the Chicago scribes. He does
not think that Heinie will do for
regular next season, and Breton, who
came from Kansas City, will hardly
do as a regular for some little time
TO come. Hence. he is angling for a
new man to hold down the keystone
territory. Callahan is anxious to de-
velop the infield material. and believes
that with q fast. hard hitting second
baseman he will have great infield
TO start next season with.
Cal is on the trail Of a new infielder,
a rah rah boy. The boy has been
burning up the diamonds with an
eastern college, but his name has been
withheld. According TO what l have
been told about the boy. and some
smart baseball men have tipped him
10 me. he's a regular second edition
of Eddie Collins" says Callahan. Cal
makes no bones about stating that
Berger, the ex-Islander will not do
He believes that If he can land his
college phenom he will have a boy

BASEBALL OUTLOOK
DUBIOUS AT PEORIA

Peoria, ILL.,, Sept. est is hard to
tell whether the baseball situation in
Peoria is clearing up or not. Until
after the meeting of the stockholders
Thursday night no definite idea of the
exact status of baseball here can be
had Rumors galore are being cir
culated, but news of any authenticity
is conspicuous by its absence.
The news yesterday that Max Flack
had been drafted by the Detroit Tig-
ers was hailed with delight by the
directors, who had lost all hope of
realizing anything before next season,
since Max refused to report to the In
dianapolis club. The 6SaR means
that the draft price of $1,000 will be
paid Immediately for Flack, which is
only $50 less than the price which
would have been paid by Indianapolis
next season.
President Meidroth declines to say
much about the situation other than
that he wishes it was all over.
Whatever action the stockholders take
will be agreeable to the prexy, who
declares that he will have to be kicked
out of the presidency.
Which ever way the holders of the
stock vote Thursday night, it is al
most certainty that Peoria will have
baseball next season, whether it be
organized or outlaw, the fans of the
city will support it in the same man.

Cards Fight Huaains,

st. Louis, Mo, Sept 23.-In signing
Miller Higgins to lead the Cardinals
in 1914 President Britton has thrown
down the gauntlet to a faction of the
team at loggerheads with the little
manager. AT least three stars on the
Cardinals only charge that Higgins is
incompetent and has ruled a good
pitching staff by trying to run them
from second base. He aroused the
ire OF his pitchers, they say, by de
claring that Dan Griner was the onl,
smart twirler in the bunch. Huggin:
also is charged with insincerity. talk
ing too much trade and asking waiy
ers. As result it is planned to tr,
to trade some of the best men on tn,

Alexander Wins First Setto,

and Take Next, 81.

Chicago, Sept. 23.-If Heine Zim-
norman or Vic Safer had delivered
much-needed blow in the ninth inning
yesterday the Cubs would be a half
game out of second place tonight and
the pennant dreams of one Skipper
Doom would be a thing of the past
AS it is the Trojans are still two and
one-half contests in the rear, for they
allowed the opening battle of a bar
gain bill with the Phillies to slip away,
but coppered the wind-up fracas, 5
to 1. The opening score was to 0.
Alexander. who on Sunday was sent
to the dressing-room under a melee
of base hits that rocked Broad street
in Philadelphia, is not accustomed to
being treated in this manner, so he
came right back in the first game of
the afternoon and, pitching in his
slickest stride, blanked the West Sid
ers with three sound hits and one of
the Cincinnati variety. The result
might have been different if either

runners were on second and first with

The aftermath was set-up for the
home boys, for they walloped Speeder
Chalmers when base hits meant runs
and the result was never in doubt,
even though the Quakers did get away
to a run lead. This was the result
of four-ply swat off the club of
Magee, and the ball hit a post in the
left field bleachers and bounced out.
Magee reached third in the meantime.
but when Doom and his aids raised a
yell he was allowed to come home.
This margin lasted until the fifth.
