This Lad Wood. the former Business
player, who Is now playing with Pet
worth. is improving in his work with
every game In which he takes part Not
only is he hitting better, but he is field
ing much more accurately. Place Wood
in one position, teach him the fine points
of play connected with it, and he would
develop into a very good performer.
Dean, another capable youngster play
ing with Petworth. will enter Eastern
High School this fall, so it is reported. IL
Dean enters the Capitol Hill school he
will turn things bottom-upward in the
school series next spring. In series be-
tween high school mines that youngster
would do some work that would be bril-
liant in the extreme, because he is not
only q clever youngster, but he has one
quality which the majority OF school
boys do not possess-steadiness. He Will
hit and field wonderfully well in high
school circles. or a good guess will be
widely missed.

WILL HIGGINS RESIGN?
Reported That He Will Give Up
Management Of the Cardinals.

NEW YORK. August 22-Before the st.
Louis Cardinals left here for Boston
Wednesday night man connected with
the club stated that Miller Higgins would
resign the management at the end Of the
season. According to the story told,
Higgins has been at loggerheads with
some of the leading players who have
complained to the owners It il said
that Higgins has found fault with the
men during the games and has called
them down in public until patience has
ceased to be virtue.
The Cardinals played better ball and
made more money under Roger Bresna-
hans leadership last year, but the story
goes that the owners believed that with
Higgins In command even better re-
suits could be attained. The injury to
Shortstop Hauser was q serious handf-
cap, but Huggins is blamed for NOT oh
taining a suitable substitute. 1t Is charp-
ed that young Whitfield, who ia filling
this position, has been nagged and scored
until he has become discouraged Sallea
il said to have complained that he H. no.
ing overworked in the box, while at lac Of
one other pitcher is accused Of sulkinr
The gossips say that there have heen
numerous rows in hotels and on railroo a
trains and that Higgins has been unahie

INJURED ATHLETICS
HOME FOR REPAIRS
Lapp, Strunk and Orr Forced
to Leave Team During
Western Trip.

PHILADELPHIA. August 22-Three of
Connie Mack's injured Athletics arrived
home yesterday to get In condition for
the final dash for the flag.
Catcher Lapp has a broken finger, Out
fielder Strunk has wrenched leg and
Infielder Orr is suffering from a badly
swollen hand. Mack is certain to need
these men before the season is over, and
is taking no chances on keeping them on
the road with the team during the pres
ent western trip.
The narrowing margin in the percent
age table which now separates the Ath-
letics from the Maps has caused the
Philadelphia manager no little trouble,
and he is taking steps to bolster up his
team.
Orr has been playing at short in the
place OF Barry, who wrenched his Shout
der ten days ago, and will be missed from
the lineup. Barry has improved and left
Wednesday to join the club, but will not
be able to play until the st. Louis en-
gagemeTt
J. Leslie Bush. a member Of the young
er set Of Mack's pitching staff. was add
ed to the already big injured list OF the
Athletics yesterday. Bush received a
blow on the thumb Of his pitching hand
that will likely keep him out Of the game
for at least a week.
The accident occurred prior to the start
of the game with the Chicago White Sox.
Bush was chasing fly balls in the out
field when one struck him on the thumb.
This makes the fourth player who has
been put out of the game by injuries
within one week.
Several other members Of the house OF
Mack have met with less serious In
juries and sickness which would indi-
cate that the jinx is doing his best to
stop the Mackmen in their pennant dash.
Connie Macks injured list now reads:
ira Thomas, split thumb; Jack Barry
strained muscles in his shoulder; Jack
Lapp, split thumb: Bill Orr. badly swol-
len right hand as a result OF being hit by
ball; Amos Strunk, strained muscles OF
the leg above the knee: Joe Bush. in
jured thumb. Sickness has also slowed
up Capt. Danny Murphy and Eddie Plank.
who, although back in uniform, are not
in tiptor form.

WINN TO MANAGE LAUREL.
Phil Dwyer and James Butler Buy
Control Of MARYLAND Track.

SARATOGA. n. Y. August PAN
nouncement was made at the race course
Of the Saratoga Association yesterday
that Philip ]. Dwyer and James Butler
of New York had acquired control Of the
race course at Laurel. Md, and that Matt
VIM had been engaged to manage q
season Of racing to be held there In Oc-
tober.
This was a more important news de-
velopment than the running OF the races.
for It brings to an end the friction that
under the management of HI. d. (Curley)
Brown, and the Jockey Club.
Dwyer is president Of the Brooklyn and
the Queens County Jockey Club. while
Butler is extensively interested in the
winter track at Ju .reZ. Mexico. as well
as the Empire City track at Yonkers. both
of which are under the management OF
Winn.
Only short time ago Curley Brown,
anticipating that the Jockey Club would
refuse racing dates to the Laurel track,
brought suit to enjoin the governing body
Of the sport from interfering In any way
with it's conduct in Maryland. This suit
was recently discontinued IN the courts
and a more recent application for dates
during the month Of October was laid on
the table.
There have been many rumors OF the
sale OF the Laurel track since that time,
and it is said here that there was friction
between Manager Brown and the board
Of directors of his track. This sale will
bring to an end the fight with the Jockey
Club.

Leland Stanford University.

NEW YORK. August 22-President
Ebbets Of the Brooklyns announced yes
terday that he had signed Fred II Gross,
captain Of Leland Stanford University
nine In 1911 and 1912 Gross played
shortstop and second base. and accord
ing to his record for the two campaigns
he had a batting average Of 1896. Gross
received offers. 1t is said. from the Giants
and White Sox, but preferred the Dodg-
ers. Ebbets also explained the status Of
several deals that have been recently
made by him. He said that he traded
Pitchers Curtis and Hall to the Newarks
for Outfielder Bill Collins. He also stat
ed that he had sold Callahan. Erwin ana
Kent outright to the Toronto club.
Erwin notified President McCaferty Of
Toronto yesterday that he was unable to
play good ball, because he had not fully
recovered the use of his arm which was
broken several months ago. Erwin,
therefore, will be allowed to spend the
rest of the season at his homo in
Rochester. his salary in full to be paid
jointly by the Brooklyn and Toronto
clubs.
