CONNIE MACK NOT
 ROASTING ABOUT 1914

Always conservative, always mind full of the thousand and one pitfalls that may wreck a great ball team, Connie Mack doesn't believe that the 1914 4pennant brush in the American league has already been won by the Athletics
 ..It is foolish to say at this time that we are certain to grab the muslin next season. pointed out Connie.
 -'Of course, we have good chance, but even if we should happen to win again, it is going to be stiff race. No ball team was ever banded to- gether that could win a championship and treat the race as a joke. The Athletics will have to play marvellous baseball to win
 '.I look for far stronger competition that we had this year and we hustled some, believe me. I heard it said that we had no race this season, but with the Athletic club to disprove &hls assertion had worries for three quarters of a season.
 T have every confidence in my club to make good showing. It is the best club ever headed, but in my long baseball experience T have seen similarly formidable clubs wane. The Athletics won the worlds champion ship in 1911, and looked to be irresisti- ble for the 1912 race. but did they win?
 .aThe Boston Americans won the worlds title in 1912, but where were they in the brush this season? f
 'eThere is always the chance of one of the rival teams discovering a won der to upset calculations At the start of the season. Of 1907 thought the Athletics would win the champion ship, barring accidents We would have won the honor had it not been for the fact that Detroit discovered a marvellous player in Ty Cobb, a player who had not entered into my. calcula- tions. Detroit nosed us out in 1907 solely due to the brilliant batting and defense of Cobb:
 Again in 1901 we would have won the championship had not Cobb been in the way. His 400 per cent bat kept us out of the world series that season. It is easy to, see that the De- troit scouts only have to find one or two more great players to put the IT. gers back in the pennant running. 'In the last two seasons the Ath- Ietics have had a new championship rival to combat. Washington has of the most dangerous clubs in base ball.
 How did this come about? Be- cause washington discovered Walter Johnson, one of the most remarkable pitchers that ever hurled a sphere. It has been this phenomenon who pitched Washington from joke team into a pennant possibility.
 Suppose, for instance, Griffith should spring a Cobb or Speaker on us next spring, would the Athletics have a joy ride to the pennant? Not by your uncIe's old straw hat. We would have to rupture few fragments to win if we did at all.
 "As long as washington has a fairly good team behind Johnson it will be
 
 ting team behind him, then, good night.

During the years 1905 and 1906 he took part in twenty-four contests, winning all of them, and half of them by the knock out route. His first taste of defeat was in Milwaukee in 1907, when he lost a decision after 10 rounds with Kid Murphy.

of a monument in memory of General
James Longstreet.
A letter, giving the history and
achievements of General Longstreet'
has been received by many Atlantans

for the famous war hero.
II is proposed to buy the old Long
street home at Gainesville and make it
into a shrine similar to Mount Vernon,
the old home of Washington. This old
place is especially interesting now in
view of the fact that President Wilson
lived there while a resident Of Georgia
and that one of his daughters was
born there.
