GIANTS BEAT WHITE SOX.
$500 Shivering Fans See National
Leaguers Win bv 6 to 9.

KANSAS CITY. Mo-. October 27.-The
Giants beat the White Sox to yester-
day afternoon. before a crowd of $500
shivering fans. The weather was cold
and raw and a morning snowstorm had
converted the diamond into a sea Of mud
and fast playing was out of the question
After Russell had blanked the Giants for
three rounds, Faber was given a try-out
in the box. His wildness, coupled with
some shaky support and daring base
running by the Giants, quickly clinched
the contest for McGraw's men. With
six runs in, Scott relieved Faber in the
sixth inning and stopped further scoring.
Tesreau went the route for the Giants
and pitched a fine game. The clubs play
at Joplin today, where Walter Johnson.

The Base Ball Players Fraternity in
tends to back up its president. Dave
Fultx. According to statement issued
in New York yesterday the fraternity will
not negotiate with the national commits
sion unless Fultz is allowed to represent
1t in person. The commission announced
some time ago that it favored many of
the demands made by the players. and
that 1t would make certain concessions
provided a committee of players and not
Fultz presented the demands.
1t is, of course, needless to say that if
the players insist upon Fultz representing
them there will be no negotiations, in
in which event the players threaten to
which event the players threaten to re-
fuse to sign their contracts, which. how
ever Is not likely.
There Is not a single demand which the
players have made which would not be
granted by the commission, provided a
committee Of the players would go before
the commission. There is nothing unrea-
sonable about the changes the players
want, but If they insist on showing Fultz
to the front they are not apt to make
any progress.
President Navin of the Detroit club
has set at rest all the rumors about

Georgia peach" He admits. however,
that IL the Boston club wanted to con-

It would be given consideration. but he
voices the opinion that McAleer has
no more intention of parting with
Speaker than he (Navin) has of letting

Oscar Witt, Tiger infielder, is getting

1.-The most valuable ball player in the
world" Witt picks Eddie Collins and also
says why he does not pick Cobb. and
tells at length what he thinks of Tyrus.
Oscars story follows as it is printed un-
der his real name:
In selecting the best ball player / have

most to win games for the club he rep
resents. That man is unquestionably
Eddie Collins the great second baseman
of the Athletics, to my way of thinking.
Here is one player who is willing to
sacrifice all personal gain to help his club.
When he is on the field it is the Athletics
he is trying to help, and not Eddie Col
Inns. That is the reason why Mack's CLUB
Is SO successful. He has players on it
who are always playing to win, and not
for individual gain. However. the other
members of the club can hardly be class
ed with Collins.
Collins is great whether he is playing
the defensive or offensive.
In few departments of the game is he
excelled. He Is brilliant fielder who
thinks quickly, and he makes but few
mistakes. At the bat he has few
Superiors. He has wonderful eye. and
when he hits the ball he meets it fairly.

on a line for clean drive. He can lay
down bunt with equal skill, and it is
hard to figure him when he faces a
pitcher
The point that l admire in Collins is
the fact that he never plays to the grand

ever. that Princeton will fight all the

The Indians seem to have the hardest
kind of luck in their games with Penn
sylvania- Last year and this also they
outplayed the Quakers, vet on one oc-
casion they lost and on the other were
able to get only a tie. In 1912 and last Sat
urday. Warmers men gained a great
deal more ground and played much more
brilliantly than the Quakers, according to
the reports. and still were not able to
gain victory. Their work was clean
cut and decisive and yet it was not pro-
ductive as it should have been.
Harvard's victory over Pennsylvania
State will probably give that eleven a
regular place on the Crimson schedule.
That the Crimson could win from an
eleven which has known defeat but twice
in four years was sufficient to warrant
the playing of a game each year. 1t is
the kind of team which will give Har-
ward the workouts it desires, although If
the Pennsylvanians come through with
wonderfully strong combination such
as they had last year the chances are
that the place on the Crimson schedule
will be lost, just as Dartmouth was
thrown aside last fall.

the race had a detrimental effect on
Cobb's playing. Barring a few &C.
casions,, he did not display his usual
brilliancy in the field or on the bases
which undoubtedly accounts for his be-
ing charged with Hstlessness most Of the
time. -
Bobby" Wallace, who. it was be-

late last season. evidently has no such
intentions. Manager Branch Hickey
asked Wallace the other day IL he
would object to being traded to some
other club and Wallace replied that If
he could not finish his career with st.
Louis he would want to quit the game.

If the trip is to be success it is
essential that the players put forth
their best efforts, for though they are
on the men hustling.
That injuries to some of the stars cut
a decided figure in the last American
League race is generally conceded The
injury to Gandil and the illness of Foster
handicapped the Nationals. Cleveland
had a lot Of bad breaks in this respect
and Boston was virtually put out of the
running by reason Of Joe Woods inabil-
ity to work regularly. Connie Mack's
team was the most fortunate. It lost the
services of Jack Coombs. to be sure but
the wonderful team was intact in every

not nearly as harmful as If Baker or Col

KNIGHT TO BE DROPPED.
Former Oriole Slated to Come Back
to the International.

NEW YORK. October 27.-That Jack
Knight the former Oriole, is booked to
be dropped by the New York Americans
is a certainty. That he will go back to
the International League seems to be
probable. and there is a possibility that
the Newark Tigers, anxious to have a
new man at the initial sack, may barter
for knights services.
1t has been given out in Manhattan
that Frank Chance is not satisfied with
knight: He has, according to the peer
less leader, shown that he Is not speedy
enough for big league infield. and job
in the minors is Jacks lot for 1914
With Manager Harry Smith feeling that
Harry Swacina is not entirely an ideal
first sacker. not so much because Of his
lack of playing ability. but because of
his temperament, it is not unlikely that
the Newark club will be eager to get
Knight. The Buffalo club, too. wants a
first sacker, and possibly Billy Clymer
may beat Harry to 1t.

and has called upon eight pitchers in
that time-Mathewson. Marquard. Nc
Ginnity, Tesreau, Crandall. Ames,
Wiltse and Demaree. Mathewson has
pitched more games than any other
pitcher Of either team, yet he has won
only FIVE ana lost FIVE, one being tied.
Three of these victories were in the
1906 series, each being a shut-out.

two teams in the worlds series make

that reason his brilliant showing this
year was welcome to his teammates.
Plank has had fewer runs scored against
him than any of the Athletic pitchers in
the four series. He is credited with win
ming but two games and losing four, yet
his record should be better.
In 1905 Plank pitched the first game
of the series against Mathewson. and
lost. to 0. In his second game in
that series he held the Giants. to four
hits and one unearned run. Plank

was charged with defeat when the

This year he did not allow the
Giants a run for nine innings of the
