LEE MAGEE NOW A TIP TOP?

NEW YORK, November 24.-From
reliable source 1t was learned yesterday
that the Ward brothers Of Brooklyn have

Weeghman's rundown by Charles +.
Taft. Lee Magee Of the Cardinals II
is said, has given the Brooklyn pro-
moters every assurance that ne VIII sign

The Wards, it is said. are out Tor even

York attraction and have set their net
for no less q parsonage than the tenn

Graw a wear ago. The work Of landing
Shafer has been left to George Stovall,
who winters in California and who is
in constant touch with the former third
baseman of the Giants. Gilmore has IN
structed StoyaI to learn at once Shafers
terms.
Shafer, who was popular at the Polo
Grounds, evidenced desire to return to
the big show toward the close OF the last
season and McGraw was hopeful that he
would do SO. Critics attributed the loss
Of the 1914 pennant by the Giants to
the fact that Shafer ran out at a time
when Charlie Herzog was traded. Owing
to the manner of Titles desertion NC
Graw was in no position to make over
lures. President Hampstead made every
effort to induce his star to return be-
fore the championship race began.
In Chicago yesterday Weeghman an
nounced that he had signed three big
league PLAYERS. He refused, however, to
name the deserters. The announcement.
therefore, created little excitement or

Foot Ball Teams.

AGAINST ARMY SATURDAY
Dick Jones, Former Western Boy, Is
at Right Guard for
Navy.
BY a. G. BYRD.

Dartmouth, while 1t will not be given
tho foot ball championship this
year. undoubtedly has made one Of the
most wonderful records established
during a season Of unprecedented sur
prises. Harvard 10 certain to be given
the title unquestioned, but 1t is diff
ficult to see how Dartmouth can be
awarded a lower rating than second;
and that Notwithstanding the defeat
at Princeton.
Dartmouth has proved itself one Of
tho greatest offensive foot ball
machines OF the year. It has scored
moro points than any other eleven
and has only one break to mar a truly
great record-the defeat by Prince
ton. Had not Dartmouth lost to the
Tigers. 1t undoubtedly could vie with
the Crimson for first honors. Even
Haughton's great combination has not
made the record all through the sea-
son that has Dartmouth, and has only
the crowning climax of the Yale game
the big Green eleven. Just how pow
erful Dartmouth has been as an ofren-
sive factor Is shown by the 359 points
1t has scored against Its opponents,
ana there have been no weak clubs
against which the majority of those
were gotten.
When IT Is stated that eighty. one were
made against Pennsylvania and Syra-
cuse, the latter a victor over Michigan
decislveiy; it may be well known that
probably was the greatest team In its
history and certainly one Of the best
Of the year.
Hero are some comparative scores,
which. while they do not prove much.
FORM the only basis by which the rela-
tive strength Of teams may be Judged:
Harvard had hard time defeating
Michigan Z to o; Syracuse won from
Michigan 20 to s. and Dartmouth de-
feated the aforementioned by 40 to 0.
Harvard won from Tufts by only 13 to
Ia. yet Dartmouth defeated the same
eleven by 6S to Q. Pennsylvania is not
figuring much this year. but that it
was beaten Il to by Dartmouth is
not poor showing for the latter by
any means.
OF course. this Is in no measure deny
ing that Harvard is not entitled to the
| championship. as 1t is known it made
no attempt to reach the zenith of its
strength until the game with Yale. but
| the comparisons do show that Dart
| mouth should not be rated far behind
the Crimson. Had the big green ag-
eregation played Harvard at any time
| during the season. it would have been
q game in which the latter would have
been compelled to put forth all its en-
ergies to finish in the lead. Certainly,
one lesson that may well be drawn
from the results Of the season Is that
Dartmouth is entitled to q closer union

Western in 1909, and did some splendid

the line.
The general aspect of the preliminary
season for the Army and Navy seems
to be that the former Is represented by
the stronger eleven, but whether 1t will
win is questionable. The Navy has not
been developing its eleven especially
this year, but there has been a tend

that there was no occasion to worry
ahout the Federal League in spite OF
the failure of the Herrmann-Weegh-
man program and that the apparent re-
turn Of c. w. Murphy to the helm OF
the Cubs was altogether a National
League affair. President Johnson of the
American League returned from the
east yesterday and engaged in
lengthy conference with President Co
miskey of the White Sox, ostensibly
for the purpose of planning winter
fishing trip on the south Atlantic.
Concerning the affairs of the New
York American League club, which
were supposed to be the real reason
for his visit to the east, Mr.. Johnson
was uncommunicative. In fact, he de-
clined to discuss the proposition at all.
although admitting New York was one
of the places at which he stopped last
week. He also spent some time In
Philadelphia, he said, and while there
conferred with President Tener of the
National League and with President
Shibe and Manager Mack of the
Athletics.
Peace Collapse No Surprise.
THE collapse of the peace movement
occurred while I was away, but did not
surprise me in the least" said the
American League executive. IF they
were unable to get together on COM
paratively simple proposition like the
sale of the Chicago National League
club, they would have had trouble
reaching a solution of some of the
more intricate problems that would
have confronted them.
"The Federal League has done us all
the harm II can. and ] do not think any
one in base ball need worry about that
organization - except the men who
backed it last season. Even il they
