DON'T CRIPPLE THE PROMOTION
COMMITTEE.

=
One of the superyisors-elect, Mr.. j. c. Quinn,
is quoted as favoring a plan for municipal
economy that involves dropping the $3.50
monthly appropriation for the Promotion Com
mittee.
Ear be it from the Star Bulletin to frown ON
economy-in fact, the more real economy the
better. But it is mighty poor business to Grip
pie the Promotion Committee at the beginning
of very important year of activity.
The year 1915 should be a'year of expansion
in promotion work-of progress, not retro
gression.
The public demands good roads, as Super
yisor-elect Quinn says, but it is not necessary,
rs his statement implies, that the support Of
the Promotion Committee should be withdrawn
10 order to get good roads. There are other
means of raising the revenues means that will
hot curtail the committees operations.
The building of roads, as with every other
public activity directly or indirectly of benefit
to tourists, should 60 hand in hand with the.
cempaign Of advertising that attracts tourists
ing they are essentially cooperative.
From another standpoint 1.-THE standpoint Of

BAKER URGES PRESS AGENTS.
Hears Federal League Aims It's At
tack at National League.

PHILADELPHIA, January S-When
President Baker Of the Phillies went to
Cincinnati last Monday to attend the ma
tional commission meeting. he also went
for the purpose of urging upon the Ma
tional Leaguers the institution of a most
progressive program that includes every
thing that win push the National League
to the fore, especially the employment of
representative press agents for each club.
This move Of President Baker was de-.
cided upon after he had learned from an
authoritative source that one Of the real
objects of the Federal League magnates
is to push the National League out Of
business. or place the clubs of the Ma
tional League in such straits as either to
force it into third place or force the Ma
tional League magnates into such dire
position that they will be willing to COM
promise and give the Federal League
magnates Control Of at least four Of the
National League franchises. One Of the
officers of the Phillies acknowledged these
stories to be true.
president Baker has learned from an
authoritative source that the Federals
will confine their raids almost entirely to
National League players" said this Off
Ger. "They do not propose to attempt to
raid the American League, and will not
take an American League player unless
that player makes application for a
position. They feel that the National
League Is the weaker organization. and
they feel that with the proper show Of
money they can force q compromise and
get into regular league ball"
At the offices Of the Phillies the story
from Cincinnati announcing that Pesident
Baker had advised Knabe to jump to the
Federals was labeled as untrue.

OFF ALL OF MACKS HURLERS
Giant Catcher Finds None of Champions Mound Men
Hard to Hit Safely in the Worlds
Series Contests.

Long Larry Mclean of the Giants hit
safely against each pitcher he faced in
the worlds series between the forces of
McGraw and Mack. Larry was one OF
two athletes who accomplished this feat
feat. by the way. that ]. Franklin
Baker could not accomplish, although he
made q homo run and did other divers
things that tended to make the White
Elephants for the third time the mon
archs Of the base ball universe. ]. Franz
lin failed to bingle when facing Demaree,
and SO did Eddie Collins. whose hitting.
like Bakers, was wicked and timely.
Mclean got three hits off Plank, two
off Bender and one off Bush, his percent
age against each Mack slabman being
extremely high. 1t was .667 against the
Indian, 800 against the youngest man
who played in the series-Bush-and .42s
against the veteran Plank.
Arthur Fletcher, like Mclean, touched
each Philadelphia pitcher for one or more
safeties, but the fnfielder hit above the
800 notch against only one man-Bush.
F1etcher's average against the man who
made Brainard, Mimi, famous was 500;
against Plank and Bender it was $50.
Baker got the greatest number of his
hits off MathewSon-viz., four-but 1t was
Crandall against whom he rolled up his
highest batting average, which was .lOoo.
]. Franklin hit at 800 clip against Tes-
reau anG Mathewson, and at 400 pace
against Marquard. Eddie Collins laced
