GOLFING HINTS,
BY "STRAIGHT DRIyE.-

REGARDING BALLS.-Aside
from the qualities of the various
balls. experience seems to Indicate
that the livelier ball the more
tricky 1t Is for use in the short
game and on the putting green.
The best players rather incline
toward a heavy ball with rather
thick guilty skin
When the lively rubber-cored
ball first made its appearance,
about twelve years ago. the ex-
perts of that time were reluctant
to use it because they had to re-
model their games. They felt that
they were playing with a ball
that required the touch of
magician.
After a seasons play the old
timers found themselves materi-
ally handicapped by the added
distance obtainable by the use of
the new ball, and they gradually
swung into line. but they contin-
ued to lament the absence of the
old guilty ball. which could be
pitched right up to the pin.
Many players use heavy
thick-skinned ball for short
holes and thin-skinned lively
ones of varying weight on long
holes. Hard hitters do not seem
to get as good results with soft
lively balls as with thicker-skin-
ned heavy ones. They seem to
lose distance by knocking the
softer balls out of shape.

twenty-three batters in Hackensack.
1t was in the semi-pro. class, it is
true. but a pitcher who gives such a
performance is showing something
out of the ordinary.
Harper should be of some value to
The easy victory of the Braves in
the world series was as much Of a
surprise to McGraw and his players
as to any one else. Neither McGraw
nor any of the Giants believed there
was chance for the Bostons to beat
the Athletics, and information comes
from reliable source that all of the
players lost considerable of a sum on
the Mackmen. Mike Donlin fell for
more than any of his teammates, he
backing the Athletics to the extent
of $500.
The Giants, it was thought, would
have better line on the strength of
the Braves than any outsider. for they
were beaten repeatedly by them. But
they did not seem to have been con-
vinced by their own defeats, and bet
their money on the Athletics because
of the several defeats they had suf-
fered at the hands of the Mackmen.
According to advices from Cleveland
Larry Lajoie has played his last game
at second base for the Maps. II, in fact,
he is used at all in the lineup next
season. young inf1elder named
Rogers, who halls from the Portland
position. and if he comes up to the
good things that are being said about
him by those who have seen him in
action the Maps will be better forti-
fed at second than they have been in
many day.

Feds Raise $4,000
Fund for Emergencies

CHICAGO, October ga fund
of about 100000 was raised at
the New York meeting of the
Federal League clubowners for
emergency" purposes. President
Gilmore announced on his return
today, and it is believed the
money will be used in Efforts to
persuade players now with teams
in organized ball to join the new
league.
Roger Bresnahan, the Chicago
Nationals catcher, returned with
the Federal LeaSuers from New
York today, and was in confer
ence with 6. b. Ward of the
Brooklyn club. 1t was announced
that he expected to sign as man.

made as to a change in the cir
cult, but President Gilmore ad-
mitted having talked with well
known theatrical man who Is
said to want to take the proposed
New York club. An adjourned
meeting of the league will be
held here November %.

Club owners of the Three-I League
met in Chicago October and Z. but did
little besides promise President Al
Tearney that they would pass the hat
to make up the debt owing him. Tear
ney kept the league going out Of his
own pocket. and at the end of the sea-
about $500. All franchises expired
with the close of the 1914 season, and
a meeting will be held October 20 to
reorganize. One thing determined on
was that all clubs receiving franchises
should put up a guarantee of $500 each
to insure finishing the season. which
seems little enough in a league pro-
Tossing to rank as class B. The impress
sion seemed to be that the present

TIGERS ESCAPED INJURY.
Trenkmann Only Princeton Player
Hurt in Dartmouth Game.

PRINCETON. N. J., October 26.-With
one exception. the Princeton varsity came
through the contest Saturday with prac-
tically no man on the injured list. in
spite of the grueing nature of the battle.
Eddie" Trenkmann. the .big right
guard. was this enc exception. He
sprained his instep badly and will be out
of the game for few days. The injury
is not expected to prove permanent, how
ever. and although he may not appear in
Princeton's lineup against Williams
Saturday. he will be nursed along SO that
he will be fit to play against both Har-
ward and Yale.
Today the team will be given only light
practice, but tomorrow the regular work
and daily scrimmage will be taken up
again.

The success of the American Indian in
the big leagues is highly pleasing to
the members of that race. and as re-

Report has it that at the coming
meeting of the National Association
at Omaha an effort will be made to
put through a resolution inviting"
major league club owners to sell their
stock in minor league clubs. The plea
will be made that the talk of syndi-
catism hurts the game. On the finan-
cial showing of their farms" the past
season, the ma ior magnates who dabble
in minor league clubs may not have to
be urged to get out from under,
provided they can find purchasers
among local patriots.

]. w. Norton. who holds an option
on the st. Paul club, is now working
on a plan to form a stock COMPANY to
take over the Lennon interests in the
team and franchise. When Norton first
took over the option he thought he
could interest some st. Paul capitalist
in the team. but under existing con
ditions in the base ball world no one
has been anxious to assume sinele-
handed the cares of the club. Norton
has now turned his attention toward
organizing stock company and is
meeting with good success In his pre-

Twenty-one. Year-old Horse Wins.

One of the most remarkable perform
ances of the year by a trotter was that
of the mare Gertrude. owned by John
Heffner of Berea. Ohio. In a free-for-
all matinee race at the recent county
fair at Berea the mare won the neces-
sary two heats in her race, her bes,
time being 2.27. She was never raced
until a year ago, when she won a heat
at driving meeting in 2.28k, that be-
ing her maiden performances. Her age
is a matter of record. she having been
owned in the Heffner family since she
was foaled.

But the chances are that all this talk

everything is lovely with the Feds
Even if both sides of the controversy
could agree to have peace, it would
be an intricate proposition to handle,
for there SO many angles to be
looked after. The Feds are more
anxious for peace than organized base
ball. provided their league can be
taken care of in it's entirety, but or
ganized base ball has it's own ideas as
to what it is willing to do, and that
probably is where the hitch will come
There has been no confirmation of the
! rumor that Roger Bresnahan of the
Cubs intends to jump to the Federal
League and become the manager of the
Brooklyn team. yet that is more than
probable. Bresnahan is about through
as a catcher. and as he proved himself
failure as a manager when he had
charge of the st. Louis Cardinals
there is little hope of his getting that
sort of position in either OF the
| major leagues of organized base ball.
and he probably would jump at the

handled the Ward team last season.
but Bill was too lenient with his play
ers, and did not get the results that
were expected. SO the chapces are he
will be turned loose.
Just why Jess Willard should be
picked as the most suitable of the
heavyweights to fight Jack Johnson is
not clear. Willard has the size. to be
sure. but he lacks experience. and has
never shown in the few battles he has
had that he stands Il chance just yet
to become a champion.
A glance over the long list of near
eligibles probably would prove that
there is but one heavyweight in the
game today who is entitled to the first
| chance to meet Johnson. and that Is
| none other than Sam Langford The
Boston Tar Baby by reason of his

must be conceded to have a chance

so-called white hopes appears to
have.
I Perhaps the most promising of Grif-

The National League clubs to which
Gilmore referred probably are st. Louis

of Wingo and Perritt would seriously
affect the Cardinals. Bresnahan, who

behind the bat last year. 1t is said
further that Vic Safer is wavering to-
ward the outlaw cause. The American

Neither is signed for 1915. The Fed
