Penn and Michigan
Play Two Years More

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 10.-Penn-
sylvania and Michigan will meet at
least two more years on the football
gridiron. The football agreement be-
tween Pennsylvania and the Wolver-
ines has two years to run, and Mich
igan will be one of the main attrac-
tons on Franklin Field next fall.
Pennsylvania one year later will play
at Ann Arbor,
This information was furnished by
Y. TruXton Hare. chairman of the
football committee of the University
Of Pennsylvania, who also stated that
he and other members Of the Penn
sylvania football committee are very
well satisfied with Michigan taking
on Harvard for october 81.

will be played in the East. Michigan
will be played on Franklin Field

ings. During his busy life as a ma
for league manager he has carried
five American League and three
worlds championship pennants to
Philadelphia. Quite pleasing record,
Is 1t not?
AS stated above, Connie has In mind
the winning of many more embems
hence the necessity of the erection of
the steel pole. Connie always believed
in playing the game safe, 80 he says
he's having the steel pole erected so
there will be no chance for a break
when the pole gets loaded down with
the additional flags captured as the
result of the Athletics superiority in
the American League.
Mack Says He'll Win Again.
Mack, just like thousands and thuu-
sands of fans throughout the coun-
try. believes that the Athletics will
repeat during the 1914 season. In a
rerent interview published In Phila-
delphia he declared he saw no reason
why the Athletics should be stopped.
We quite agree with the elongated c.
McGillicudy along that score.
According to his announcement of a
recent date the Athletics VIII open the
1914 season with the Identical team
that won the worlds championship
from McGraw's Giants in October Of
1913 Again we agree that Mr.. Mack
has the proper idea about running his
/ ball club for we fail to see how Tie
1913 lineup of the Athletic regulars
could be very greatly improved upon
The infeld, outfield. pitching and
catching departments were cared FOR
about as well as could be wished
If those same fellows play the same
kind of ball during 1914 as they
played in 1915-well. c. Mack's new
flagpole will have another ornament
after the coming baseball sea son.
Manager Mack has announced that
he will send his pitchers and catche-s
to the Jacksonvil, training camp
earlier than his regulars All of These
players will be at work not later thai
| March l, while majority Of tine
I regulars are not scheduled to reaci-
| Jacksonville before March 8. AS the
Athletics and Cubs arc due to play 4
series of games about the middle oi
, March Manager Mack will send his
| battery men to the Florida training
camp to allow them at least tvs
| weeks of hard work preparatory &c
the exhibition events with Evers
| crew.
| Few Exhibition Games.
The Athletics will play fewer eX-
| hibition games next spring than prob
| ably any other club Of the major
league. The majority of their games
will be played in the training camp
| as Mack has announced that he viii
likely remain in Jacksonville until d
few DAYS before the opening of thl
| American League season. OF course
some few games will be played er
| route North.
Mack has already booked exhibition

above mentioned clubs, as well as the

Collins Cost Mack
Small Sum of So

NEW YORK. Jan. 1o.-"Did It ever
occur to you" asked Billy Murray. for
mer manager of the Phillies and at pres
ent scout for the Pirates, that we have
never had a ball player who cost a lot
OF money to be one OF the great stars
OF the game
''Of course" Murray continued, there
are one or two cases where the clubs
got their moneys worth-Marquard, for
instance-but | think you can safely say
that all the really great stars OF the
game did not cost $4,000 put together. ;"
Then, what's the use of paying the
big prices" Murray was asked.
Just because we are afraid we might
lose star il we didn't, that's an
he said.
Murrays question brought out the
very interesting fact that Eddie Collins,
now considered the greatest ball player
living cost Connie Mack exactly So
