Regret Misfortune.
Yale and Michigan supporters
share the Harvard regret over Brick
ley's misfortune. The Eli grads and
those of Michigan have a feeling that
their teams are able to beat Harvard
with Brickley or without him. Vic
tory for Yale or Michigan this year
over Harvard would lose half its zest
because both of Harvards rivals want
TO triumph over the best team that
Harvard ever had.
The old Yale spirit and the old Yale
power seems to be back again. The
Yale team this year looks better than
any team Yale has had since the
days of Ted Coy. 1t isn't a team of
individual stars. 1t is a team that has
team work down TO perfection And
to Frank Hinkley. head coach, be-
longs the full credit.
Coaching System.
Last year Yale suffered from an
overdose of coaching. About 40
coaches circulated among the players
and each had a different way of
teaching. one coach would tell the
players TO hit a line this way and the
next coach would come along and tell
them that such a way was wrong. He
would urge his method The third
coach would come, Overrule the or
ders of the second and issue some OF
his own BY the time the players had
rltn the gauntlet of the coaches they
were so bewildered they couldn't have
told you who was king of England
had you shot the question at them.
It's different this year. Hinkey Is
coach-the coach. No orders are is
sued unless they come from Hinkey
or have the approval of Hinkey.
There is no conflict or orders or ad-
vice. It's a one-man coaching sys-
tenn

Nothing quite as remarkable has
happened before and probably moth

tinue to come and go, but there will
probably never be another occurrence
such as baseball witnessed this sea-
son.
Champs Called Punk.
And what makes this performance
so phenomenal is the makeup of the
Boston team. The club that today has
the chamI iOnship of baseball for its
own is a team of castoff players, men
who were not considered good enough
for other clubs.
Take George T. Stallings, manager
Of this club. Detroit had him and
did not think enough of his ability
to keep him. New York Yankees
paid him a salary later on and he
was not thought Of we'll enough there
When they dropped him, not another
of the 16 major league clubs made an
attempt TO secure him. He went back

him on.
One Of the stars in the series is

gan Lacquer. He is likewise a De-
trOit castOff. Detroit gave him two
chances but he looked too awkward
and was sent to Providence No

McGraw's Boot.
McGraw tossed off Dick Rudolph

stars. The New York Yankees had

The high school football team Will

announcement was made by Coach

Pitcher Developed by Ed Smith
is Great Success in Big League

BROOKLYN, oct. %. Although
his record for the past year has been
good one. next year is going to be
a banner one for Edward J. Pfeffer,
pitcher, secured by the Dodgers from
Grand Rapids in 1913, according to
Manager Robinson.
Solidity shows in every part Of
Pfeffer's equipment. He is six feet
two and One-half inches tall and
weighs 2O2 pounds The youngster
has ended his fourth season in pro-
fessional baseball and in his home
town of Champaign, Ill, statistics
show that he is just "a years old.
Pfeffer had a brother widely known
as Jeff" who pitched and batted so
well that he held a job long after his
slabbiRg days were over. JEFF
pitched for and played in the outfield
with the Cubs and Braves before
going to Baltimore in the Interna-
tiOnal league.
Found With Smith.
Henry w. MedicuS, one of the for
mer owners Of the Dodgers. found Ed
Pfeffer pitching for the Grand Rapids
team in 1913 at a time when Mr.
Medicus was on a furniture buying
mission. The youngster was watched
in several games and finally landed
in the Dodgers net. Although prom
ising and possessing the physique for
hard work. Pfeffer did not give evil
dence OF his full strength until Rob
bic" personally directed the young
ster's workouts last spring. Before
the opening of the National league
season Robbie" confided to a New
York fan: I've got young pitcher
who ought to be another 'Matty'
Despite "Robbie's" earnestness' his
auditor grinned provOkingly. "There'H
ought to know it better than any one
else" he ventured. Well" Robbie
corrected. this Pfeffer is the best
pitching prospect I have ever seen.
He is big enough, strong enough and
game enough 10 be a winning pitcher
from the first time out"
Wastes No Motion.
Pfeffer has a natural delivery in
which no motion is wasted. Under
Robbie's coaching the big fellow has
developed rare ability as right
handler in keeping base runners close
to the sacks. He was essentially a
speed pitcher when he came to the
Dodgers late in 1913, but ne has

regularity when working at his best

More noticeable than any timer
poinr in the development the
pitcher has been his eagerness TO
learn. After watching some of the
older tvirlers Ed was seen using the
same stun with the frills he has
worked out. Robinson was recently
asked regarding Pfeffer's future.
THAT fellow hasn't begun TO show all
ne has got" said the Brooklyn man
