BOB WALLACE IS
SIMON PURE VET
Like LajoIs He Has Never Played
on Championship Team

There has been much said about
the great Larry Lajole ending his
baseball career without the satisfac-
tion and financial gain Of playing on
a championship club, but has it occur
red to you that one OF these young"
fellows has been lingering in the big
leagues longer than any OF the rest Of
them and hasn't graced pennant win
ming combination? Well, whether it
has occurred to you or not, such is the
case and Rhoddy Wallace OF the
Browns is the man.
II any one OF a hundred fans were
asked who has been longest in the big
show, playing practically all the time,
the fans would name either Lajoie or
Wagner with the chances favoring old
Honus. However Wallace cops the
honors. Here is the real line on the old
timers trio
Lajoie, born I'm WoOnsocket, Septem-
ber 8. 1875. broke into the big league
baseball with the Phillies late in 1896.
"dSilcii boiil III NdIhcRic, ~ fSb-
ruary "a, 1874, broke into the big show
with Louisville in the latter part Of
1897.
Wallace, born i'm Pittsburgh. Novem-
Der 4, 1874 had his first engagement in
the big leagues with the Cleveland Ma
tionals in 1894.
And so you see Rhoddy antedates
Wagner three years and Lajoie two
years in the big time circuit He broke
in as pitcher, but his hitting was
such that when chance was found to
move him to another position he was
moved. 1t happened that the third
basoman OF the Cleveland club was
taken sick and Wallace filed the gap.
In another year he was rated along
with Jimmy Collins as the star third
baseman of all time.
Wallace isn't i'm there every day now,
but II it came down to a case OF neccs-
sity. as il is with the runnorsup for the
long service title. Wallace would not
he found wanting. As il IL Rhoddy
breaks in every now and then, just to
let people know he's still on the job
when duty calls
Wallace is a great "old man" and
don't let anyone fool you into thinking
that the star relic-of ye olden days is
either Larruping Larry or the Flying
Dutchman.

500 COACHING
FOOTBALL men
Former Yale and Pennsy Players
In Greatest Demand

New York, Sept. 12.-Another set Of
day for the football coach is ready for
the initial mancuvers of the gridiron
campaign. In all parts OF the country
the turf is being lined with long white
marks; tackling dummies erected and
padded uniforms taken from gymna-
sium lockers and storerooms. Soon vet
eran and novice will trot out upon the
practice field and the football coach
will come into his own once again.
That he is an important factor in the
popular college sport is shown by the
fact that more than seventy per cent
OF the schools and colleges supporting
football teams employe one or more
coaches in the individual and collective
development of the players In a ma
iorty of cases the coach is n former
player who gained fame as gridiron
star at either the college where he now
coaches or at some rival university

Players from institutions that have
been represented for a period of some
years by winning elevens are most fire.
quently in demand since the belief
prevails that as coach they will incor-
porate the same system and methods
in their charges.
At the present time there are more
than five hundred former players act
ing as coaches for school and college
teams. Eliminating from this list all
but the more prominent institutions
OF the country an analysis shows that
players from Yale and Pennsylvania
are most popular as coaches. These
two universities are tied with fifteen
each. Dartmouth, Michigan, Prince
ton, Wisconsin and Chicago follow in
the order named and these are close
ly pressed for honors by Lafayette
Syracuse, Notre Dame. Vanderbilt
William, Ohio, Penn State and Mime
sofa. At the foot of the list will be
found some eighty institutions with
but one or two players who have en-
tered the coaching ranks. In this con-
nection the peculiar co-incident is
shown OF Harvard with winning
eleven for the past few years at the
very foot of the tabulation.
Yale and Harvard Rivals.
Despite the fact that Yale and Har-
ward are widely separated so far as
developing coaches for other colleges
is concerned the football follower an
ticipated a great battle between the
coaching staffs Of these two universi-
ties during the present season which
will eliminate i'm the contest at New
Haven on November 81, when the
teams meet in the new Yale
Bowl. In some respects the head
coaches of both Harvard and
Yale are alike. Both are men OF few
words. When Frank Hinkey was
playing end at Yale he was known as
the silent captain" Percy ID. Haugh-
ton who has held the coaching reins at
Harvard for the past few years Is al
mCst as chary Of speech Both how
ever, know football from every angle.
They are hard drivers as they were
players and do not fear to reprimand
candidates for breaches OF playing or
training rules. Their charges know
that every man will get fair chance
TO make the team and the final selec-
tion made in merit alone. on football
tactics however, Hinkey and Haugh-
ton differ widely but these teams late
I'm November will know and play foot
ball Of the highest calibre.

CAREER OF big
CHIEF" STALL|NGS
Man Whose Boston Braves Are
Making History Is Georgian

Boston, Mass, Sept. 12.-For some
years Tyrus Cobb and Napoleon Ruck-
er have monopollzed the spotlight
among native Georgians in the world
of aseball. Any reference to Georgia
was not complete unless Tyrus and
Napoleon were mentioned as products
OF that state. These two birds were
the last word in diamond affairs from
Catoosa County to Traders Hill, and
they certainly deserved all the praise
heaped upon them by their fellow cit
izens.
But this year the Georgia popular
ity trust has expanded. Ty and Nap
have been compelled to move over and
share the limeiight stuff with another
Cracker" known far and wide as
Big Chief" George Stalings, manager
of the Boston Braves.
Today Stallings is as well known
and equally as popular among the fans
as either Cobb or Rucker. But unlike
these two he has not gained his place
among baseball celebrities as n play
er (old- timers declare that Stallings
was only a mediocre player at his
besD. His reputation is based who'll
ly on his successful work as a manag-
or. In making over the tail-end Braves
into a pennant possibility he proved
his capability in this direction. In
addition. he piloted many minor league
champions between the years 1891 and
1909.
Born in Atlanta.
Stallings will reach his forty fifth
birthday next Thursday. Augusta, Ga,
was the place OF his birth. He grad
uated from the Virginia Military In
stitute and latter took n course i'm a
Baltimore medical college. 1t was as
member Of the medical school ball
team that he first donned the spangles.
He was an outflelder and catcher. His
work attracted the attention of the
Philadelphia Nationals and he was
signed by that club in 1887. After
mid season the Philles loaned him to
Toronto. which club won the Interna-
tional league pennant that year. So
Stallings finished his first season in

outfit.
The next year he was with the
Stockton, Cal, club and in 1889 he
played with the champion Oakland
club. He put in the season of 1890
with the Brooklyn Nationals, another
pennant winner. and in 1891 he return
ed to California as manager Of the
San Jose club. This was Stallings'
first season as manager and his team
walked away with the championship.
He remained in San Jose the next sea-
son and again his team proved n PEN

OF the Augusta, Ga, club and copped
the Southern league flag.

And she looked at him piteously.
