Says Teams Are Evenly Matched

fielding alone that Fletcher has shown
improvement At the bat too, no
other Giant has come to the front
with the rapidity of Fletcher. In fact,
he has been the most consistent bat
ter on the team. He has batted time
ly and steadily, and no player on the
team has done more to enable the
Giants to win this years National
League pennant than the game,
plucky and always gingery shortstop.
Gained Much Experience.
Experience has done wonders for
Fletcher. He has now settled down
to one OF the most reliable players
on the team. There Is no doubt that
nervousness, due solely to inexperl-
eRce, was responsible for most of the
errors Fletcher was guilty of during
the 1911 and 1912 worlds series. But
now he has steadied GOWN to a vet
Grams attitude, and he can be de-
pended on to hold his own and pos
ibly be a shade over Barry, his very
worthy rival
The big majority OF those experts
who have taken upon them selves the
rather dangerous task of predicting
the winner in the series have harped
on the superior pitching staff OF the
Giants and the Athletics supremacy
in batting. The seasons dope" war
rants those comparisons, possibly
but such a short series as the worlds
championship takes all the gist Of
the arguments pro and con that have
been made for either or both of the
contesting teams.
Giants Not Hitting Hard.
OF what earthly use can the Giants
acknowledged superiority Of pitchers
be unless the Giants can hit the bal
often enough to manufacture more
rams than can the Athletics The
Giants inability to hit with any win
ming degree of sequentialty for the
last six weeks has got me guessing as
to what the outcome of the series will
be.
Then, on the other hand, one might
argue that the Athletics have been
most successful in their run getting
against pitchers who. in the majority
Of games, have hardly been up TO the
class OF Mathewson, Marquard, Dem

There IS warrant for the belief that

though he failed to win game
against the Boston Red Sox last year
But nevertheless Matty came out of
that series wearing the halo. He
pitched the best ball Of any boxman

Matty is as good now as he was
last fall. Marquard is better than
then, and Tesreaus recent work

do will hardly compensate for the
Giants lack OF the punch.
Luck has figured largely in. all
past worlds series, as 1t is bound to
in such short series. Luck was
surely against the Giants last fall
although the games the Giants
lost were due to costly errors. Bakers
home runs were lucky, too, in 1911,

CAN NOT
DECIDE WHICH
TEAM IS BEST.
By Damon Runyon.

Jew YORK, Oct. 6. - Having
N clearly demonstrated by a Sc
ries Of unique deductions and
comparisons that a worlds series is
impending, and that It is very Sc
rious matter, there is really not much
more that we can say on the subject
without fully exposing our hand. A
recapltulation and close analysis of
our testimony proves conclusively the
following facts:
(a) That we do not know who is
going to win.
CD That we hardly even suspect
anything.
The above is confirmed. in part, by
our conscience.
We wish We knew. of course. We
wish we knew who is going to win
the worlds series, just the same as
uel's bride left him so fat having
a deep interest in all items of public
veal or woe: but we repeat we do not
know. Alas! we do not.
Players Do Not Agree, Either.
AS a matter of downright fact. the
only writer's who positively know
which team will win in the coming
disorder are the ball players. and
they do not agree which makes it
all the more confusing. Messrs. J.
Tories Meyers and Richard w. Mar
guard, Sr., for instance, intimate that
the New York Giants will be the vic
tors, whereas Messrs. Edward Col
Inns and ]. Franklin Baker allege that
the Philadelphia Athletics have what
the slang whangers call a lead-pipe
skinooch.
Personally. we might be inclined
to string with Messrs. Meyers and
Vanguard. having frequently been on
the very same page with them in col
umns Of comparative equality, but
you never can tell.
That's the whole trouble You
never can tell. Not for worlds would
Messrs Meyers and Vanguard or
Messrs Baker and Collins mislead the
reading public, but there is always
that grave danger of them misleading
themselves. You never can tell.
Not Much in Figures.
We have tried TO solve the problem
by means Of figures. We have taken
a lot of ones and twos and threes
and showed them around this way and
that, like anybody. and mixed 'em up
with decimals and fractions and ad-
jectives and such, but they always
came out looking just Ike ones and
twOs and threes. There are some
people who can take the same figures
and make them lie down, roll over
and speak. which proves that it is not
the figures so much as the handling
of the figures.
As we have glibly mentioned be-
fore, the Athletics, on paper, are
stronger in some respects than the
Giants and the Giants are stronger,
on paper, in other respects than the
Athletics-it depends entirely on the
paper and where 1t is published. The
Athletics will win. or Connie Mack is
mistaken; and the Giants will win, or
John J. MCGraw has not been cor
reCtly informed.
There you have the situation in
nutshell with the accent on the nut.

By Sam Crane.


Jew YORK, Oct. EN- sizing up
N the respective merits OF the
Giants and Athletics for the
worlds championship it viii be well
to take into consideration that the
Giants are much stronger in the field,
or what is called defensive tactics,
than they have been III the last two
years,
One reason OF this is that George
Burns is about so per cent superior
to Josh Devore as guardian Of left
field. Josh was always an uncertain
factor, so much 30 that Giant root
ers would shake in their boots for
fear the little fellow would pull some
muff or tumble that would result In
disaster
On ground balls Josh was very
weak 1t seemed as If he never could
stop a ball sCooting at him over the
turf, and many a single was turned
into a triple by his inability to get
his hands in the right place at the
right time. The sun also bothered
Josh not a little, and he was not alb
solutely sure of any difficult fly that
went out into his territory
1t was Josh, though, who sent in
the majority of runs the Giants made
against the Athletics in 1911, but
still there was always a feeling that
he was not dependable.
But still it can not be denied that
Josh almost invariably made good in
important series, especially against
the Athletics, but the form he showed
then he did not carry last year or
this.
Burns Real Star.
In Burns the Giants have one Of
the best outfielders in the country
bar none. He makes easy work ont
OF fly balls that Devore would hardly
try for, on account OF his poor judg-
ment. Burns starts after a fly much
quicker than Devore, and being, too
just as fast a runner and a sure
catcher, any ball that is hit out into
Burns field can be considered as
fielded
On ground balls Burns is nearly as
good. IL not quite So as an infielder
and as he can throw with great speed
and deadly accuracy, he will be In
every way an improvement on De.
wore
Burns. while he has not batted CON
sistently this season, still the many
batting spurts he has had gives him
more hits than any other man on the
his spurts with the bat he would
stick" with the best, but Unfor-
tunately his slumps we're almost as
frequent as his rallies. and at those
times he would fall Off most disas-
trously.
Sure TO Make Good in Series.
There is a good chance, though. that
he may accumulate another squirt
during the big series, and If he is
that fortunate, ] look for him to be
one Of the heroes of the coming con
tests. He is sure to make good in
the field, and with Snodgrass and
Murray, both OF whom have improved
in their work as outfielders, I am Of
the opinion that the Giants's outfield
has a shade on the MaCkmen.
At another point, and a most i'm
portant one. have the Giants also
shown decided Improvement - and
that is at shortstop. Arthur Fletcher
from being a rather doubtful propo-
sition In 1911 and 1912 has developed
into one of the stars in his position.
His work this season has been sen
sational. and his many startling stops
and ground covering ability have
made him famous. And IL is not in

Fletcher Much Improved Player
Better Than Wagner, Says 'Rube'

when Arthur DeVlin began to slow
up. He was put in to play third, but
McGraw quickly made up his mind
there were better third basemen in
the world than Fletcher. as he ac-
complished the deal which brought
HerZog to the Giants.
As a matter of fact, ii was generally
supposed that Herzog had been Sc
cured to play short. but McGraw had
evidently decided that Fletcher was
shortfielder, If anything, and switch
ed Herzog over to third. II was
a change that made the Giants cham
pions Of 1911, and maintained their
championship in 1912.
Fletcher has long been credited
with the best pair of baseball hands
in the game, OF at least he succeeded
to that distinction with the passing Of
the great Arthur Devlin. His field
ing during the past season has been
of an unusually high order, and he
seems to have overcome many little
weaknesses that handicapped him be-
fore.
Fletcher is a great "kidder" on the
ball field, and an aggressive fellow in
that he is always fighting for the
game. In the worlds series he stacks
up against a formidable opponent.
and while Fletcher seems to overtop
Barry on the seasons figures so far
as they pertain to hitting and base
running. the Athletic shortfielder is
a marvel in these brief encounters,
and one of the most dangerous men
of the Mack clan in pinch.
Barry Has Wicked Way.
Barry is batting about .266. but that
gives you no idea of the wicked way
he can slip over a hit when 1t is
worth something There are few bet
ter fielders in the land than Jack, and
If Connie Mack had to lose one Of
his infeIdeTs for the coming series, he
would probably hate to lose Barry
more than any other man, not barring
Eddie Collins. That's how valuable
BLACK Jack" is TO the Athletics.
However. Fletcher this year should
not be the unsteady, nervous Fletcher
of the other series. He has been
twice through the fire, and his ad-
mirers believe that he has now found
his footing.

peace for a year. An alternative OF
three months imprisonment was
given.
Mrs. Flora Drummond, another mil

tried when her case was called in
court because of illness brought on by
a hunger strike, was arraigned with
Miss Pankhurst on the charge of ma

case was put over until october 5
and she was remanded.

King George recently accepted an in

When the magistrate announced his

Jail. but would abstain from water
also. She swore she would kill herself
before she would submit TO any male
judges ruling.
