money is theirs to do as they will
with it. Last season the Boston and
New York players were handsomely
rewarded. The attendance at the 1912
world series was greater than any be-
fore and of course the gate receipts
greatly exceeded all previous So
that every player last year received i
sum falling not very short of a kings
ransom in the matter of enormity. AT
the close of the world series each
player who finds he has grown agree
ably plump in the region of the wallet,
reposes for the nOnce in the lap of
luxury, as set forth in the accompany

for few days Of healthfui outdoor
exercise is very nice wages.
The Giants and the Athletics have
met before on the baseball battlefield.
1t will be remembered that in 1911
they had a little argument about this
world championship thing and at that
time the Athletics managed 20 put the
Giants against the ropes. With the
memory of the sad affair still poig-
nant, old Muggsy McGraw comes forth
to say that Connie Mack's crew is not
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1913-08-30

by any means the class it was two sea-
sons ago. They've gone back, says
Muggsy.
After porting over the dope while
and poking in among dusty batting
averages and games won and lost we
emerge with the impression that the
Athletics have just about as good q
chance as they had in 1911. McGraw's
statement seems to be, in a sense, re,
moved from fact Or at least if the
Athletics have gone back the Giants
have too, and their relative strength
remains the same. In 1911 Connie
had it on Muggsy in the matter of hit,
ting strength. and while the Athletics
may seem 10 have slipped a little they
still lead the Giants. In the pitching
department the Giants seem to have
the shade, although the Athletics have
some young material-Houck, Brown
Bush and Shawkey-that will nc
doubt strengthen them wonderfully
Viewing the thing as whole, it is
hard 10 see where the Mackmen have
gone back very much. Maybe Muggsy
was right-but then again, maybe he
wasn't.

According to all the dope of our
best dopesters and the prognostica-
tons Of OUT most prominent prognos-
ticators, there are two ball teams in
the public eye at present who may
look forward joyously to the approach
of the worlds series. Everybody
seems willing TO admit that the Giants
and the Athletics have got the bulge
on all their competitors and have
their respective remnants sewed up
and chucked away on ice. Unless We
introduce a degree Of highly imprOb-
able conjecture into the argument we
will have to confess that it looks like
the Athletics and the Giants will be
the principal participatOrs in the
worlds series, scheduled for early
October.
Bail players like TO play in the
world series Not alone for the reason
that they are thus made the center of
public notice and also have flattering
pieces put in the paper about them,
but they are also made the recipients
of large pieces Of change as their
share OF the gate receipts. This

BERGER IS SENSATION
IN AMERICAN LEAGUE

son the former Frisco fence buster
Geems twice as fast in the field as on
the bases. He has a native gift of go
ing after the ball instantly after the
crack OF the wood on the Ieathered
sphere.
Players Who follow the ball are in
2 position to cover more ground than
others who lack this gift, but who are
much faster. There are many cut
feeders faster than Bodie who are not
up to his standard as a sure fielder,
and there are many infelders who
could give Berger an allowance and
heat him out in a hundred yard dash,
bat whom he could show aces and
spades when II comes to covering
ground around second. Berger has
formed a habit of following the ball,
while these lielders have failed to
learn this trick or forgot their lines
under the strain of excitement.
The catcher gives the signs showing
what sort of bail the pitcher is going
10 deliver and il is the duty Of the in
fielders to watch for these signs and
anticipate where the ball will be bat
ted. This was Herman Longs long
suit. II was a characteristic that made
him 4 top liner and no infieIder in the
history of the game pulled of more
thrilling plays in crises than this won
dcrful shortstop. Berger seems to
have formed this habit of being so bal
arced that he goes after the ball in
stantly after it is hit. Berger is slow
by comparison to other infelders who
could be mentioned, but this habit of
following the ball makes him seeEi
faster when in the field than on the
bases.
In recent game at the White Sox
park thousands of fans were startled
and agrsesbly surprised when an op-
posing batsman hit sharply TO Chase
and the ball, taking a bad bound,
! bounded through the first sacker's
hands, to see Berger directly back of
Chase. Berger retrieved the ball in a
fash and tossed it to Chase for a put
out. That batted ball would have gone

BALL PLAYER GETS
REVENGE ON JUMPS

When it comes to getting fiendish
revenge on an umpire, OrviIle Wolfe of
the Rockford, WI" team leads the
field. He has opened the eyes of the
baseball world to new and up-to-date
method, which far surpasses the stere-
otyped usuages, such as expectorating
in the arbiter's left eye, gently tweak-
ing his nose, pushing him in the face,
trampiing on his tender corns and
throwing a quantity of real estate
down the back of his neck. Wolfe,
who is recognized as the best catcher
in the WI league, pulled a new one
the other day. While playing at Mad
ison the backstop Intentionally got out
of the way of a wild pitch, allowing
the speeding agate to collide with the
umpire. Wolfe was fined SIS by Jumps
Fitzpatrick. He refused to pay the
fine and last night quit the team and
left for his home in Ohio.
