- WHO'S WHO FOR ATHIETICS IN COMING WORLD SERIES
PRESENT SERIES is
RUBBER FOR LEADERS

New York, Oct. 6.-When the Phila-
Giants meet in the initial game of the
1913 worlds series on October 7. a pc
cuIiar combination of baseball COM
pIications will be resumed after the
lapse of two years. To begin with the
coming series will be in the nature of
rubber match since these two clubs
have twice before fingered in worlds
series and each has a championship
to it's credit In 1905, two years after
the opening.of the existing series be-
tween the National and American
League pennant winners, the PhiIadel-
phia, and New York clubs were the
contenders The Giants triumphed in
what in many respects was the most
sensa tional worlds series ever played
The New York team under McGraw
won four out of five games and every
game of the series was a shutout.
Joe McGinnity the Giants Iron
Man." was at the height of his pitch
ing career while C1risty Mathewson
was just developing into master
twirler. McGinnity off1ciated at the
Polo Grounds games while Matty did
the pitching for the Giants in Phi1a-
deIphia. These two famous boxmen
proved. effective in every game except
the second when Connie Mack'S In
dian hur1er, Bender, did even better,
winning a 8 to victory for his club,
the only one gained by the Athletics.
The scores in the remarkable series
were as follows: New York 3, Phi1a-
deIphia O; Philadelphia 3, New York O;
New York 9. Philadelphia o; New York
1, Philadelphia 0; New York 2, Pht1a-
delphia o.
Connie Mack and his Athletics had
to wait six years for revenge, but they
did not forget and in the autumn of
1911 Philadelphia won the worlds
championship at the expense Of the
Giants in such a decisive manner as to
leave no question as to which was the
better team In a six game series the
Athletics won four. All the games,
with one exception, were close, the
victor's margin never exceeding two
runs and two games went into extra
innings The exception was the final
contest played at Philadelphia, wheE
the Athletics broke down the Giants
defense and won by a score of ID to q
OF all the players who participated IN
the 1905 series but five wear the uni
forms of the Athletics and Giants to-
day Danny Murphy, who played sec
ond base: Davis of first base fame
and the two pitchers, Bender and
Plank, are the Philadelphia veterans
while Mathewson is the sole survivor
of the New York team which won the
WORLDS highest baseball honors but
eight years ago. OF the twenty nine
PLAYERS who figured in the series OF
1911 between these two clubs four are
missing from the ranks of eligibles for
the present conflict. Lord of the Ath-
letics is no longer under Mack's con-
troll and McGraw has released or trad
ed Devore, Becker and Anes.

THAW'S MACHINE SKIRTS
CITY ON FINAL LAP OF
FLIGHT TO NEW YORK.

A successful flight from New Haven
to New York witnessed by many resi-
dents of Bridgeport and adjoining
beach resorts was made yesterday in
a f1ydro-aeroplane by William Thaw
of Pittsburgh, Penn, and Stephen
MaeGordon of Pittsheld, Mass.
The flight which had it's inception
at Newport, r. L, on September Is.
met with a. delay at Guilford where a
break in the motor had to be repair
ed. The flight was resumed yester-
day, the aviators keeping but 200 feet
average above the waters of the
Sound They were first sighted in this
vicinity at about $50, but as they
were estimated to travel at a, speed
of about so miles per hour, little time
to witness the exhibition was given.
The whir of the propeller was dis
tinctly audible for some distance
ashore.
It was later reported from New
York that the machine had circled
the lower bay, the statue of Liberty
and many incoming steamers, later
landing successfully on the Staten Is
land shores.

WORLDS SERIES IS NOT
REAL TEST OF ABILITY

The worlds series, interesting as it
is, does not afford a true test of the
playing ability of the teams involved.
Bush league clubs have often defeated
star major organizations in Single
games, but no fan believes that the
minor aggregation would stand a
chance in a long series. The race for
the worlds bunting is too brief to give
a real trial of strength.
This was never better dem onstrated
than in the Temple Cup series played
just nineteen years ago this week.
October'4 to 8, 1894. The contestants
were the Baltimore Orioles, pennant
winners of the National League, and
the New York Giants, who finished
second in the race.
The Orioles were undoubtedly the
better team. Hanlon's men had dem
onstrated that fact in the regular sea-
son, which they finished with a per-
centage of .695, the highest in eight
years. In HanIon the Baltimores had
one of the ab1est pilots in the history
of the game, and the lineup included
such baseball 1-irnmortals' as John
McGraw, Hughie Jennings, Billy.
KeeIer and Joe Kelley. The Ortole
pitching staff was comp of Glea-
son, Esper, Hawn and Hemming.
Baltimore looked like a sure win
ner of the Temple Cup, on the face of
the returns, but the Orioles did not
take a solitary one of the post-season
contests. The Gothanites made it
four straight, Amos Rusie twirldng
two of the pastimes for the Giants,
and Jouett Meekin annexing the other
two.
John Ward was manager Of the
Giants in 1894. At the beginning of
that year he secured Meekin from
Washington and Catcher Duke
Farrell and also bought from. the
same club. Besides Rusie and Meek1n,
Wards pitching staff included Cor
