CHANCES DAYS END
AS YANKEE MANAGER
Owner Farrell Pays Him Off in Full
and Frank Tears Up
His Contract.

NEW YORK, September 16.-Frank
Leroy Chance, one of base balls most
famous characters, is out of job. He
severed his connections with the Yam
KEGS yesterday at noon following a
friendly meeting with Frank Farrell.
in which the owner of the Yankees
paid Chance $4,000 as salary covering
the balance of this year and Chance
tore up his contract binding the Yam
KEGS and himself for next year as well
as this.
AS to Chances future, he refused TO
offer any advice. He would not deny
that there was possibility OF ms GO
ing to Chicago again, but not as ma IL :
aver of the Cubs, the old machine that
he piloted to four pennants and Two
worlds championships.
1t was asked Chance If he had any
idea of accepting the management OF
the White Soxs in Chicago. but ne
eyaded the question. 1t is known that
Charles Comiskey, owner of the White
Sox, has long been personal admlrer
of Chance, and that two years ago,
when Chance had his troubles with
Charles Murphy, then owner OF the
Cubs, Comiskey tried to pull the rope
that would land Chance on the White
Sox. but other owners in the American
League thought he would be worth
more to the league in New York and
the wires were pulleQ III tudl uAie
Comiskey Wants a Winner.
Whether or not Chance will be with
the White Sox is only matter of con-
lecture at present. but those close to
Chance and Comiskey are sure that
such a thing is possible. James j.
Callahan, present manager of the
White Sox, has been on the verge of
wants a winner and is about convinced
1t is said that Callahan Will be made
vice president of the club should
Chance succeed him as manager.
Roger Peckinpaugh was called into
conference with Farrell at ABOUT the
same time Chance was talking to the
PLAYERS and Peck" was placed in
charge of the team for the baIance OF
the season.
AS to who will be the next manager
of the Yankees, Farrell refuses to say.
Some of the men close to Farrell 10

manager of the Baltimore orioles, VIII
step into the berth left vacant by
Chance. 1t is almost certain, however,
that no manager will be appointed De-
fore the end of the season.
The trouble that finally eliminated
in Chances leaving tine cluo began
early in the year, when he objected
to many decisions of policy passed over
his head. he was DISSATISFIED with the
players obtained by Arthur Irwin. the
scout, and recommended the dlsmissaf
of Irwin, but Farrell objected to tnis.

fifth corrals two or three phenomenai
performers. Right now it is apparent
that Mack's team is one of the greatest
ever gotten together. and there Is no
indication of slump on the part OF
any of the players. Every member OF
the club is comparatively young. and
they are playing as good Dali TINS year
as ever. A man who has been follow
ing base ball in an active capacity FOR
years commented in this manner on
the Athletics:
THE Athletics are undoubtedly one
of the greatest ball clubs that ever ex-
listed, There was one team that was vas
probably superior to them--the old
Baltimore club-but the margin OF Its
superiority was small. indeed. Unless
something happens to put some of

other team in the American League
for Two or three years. AS the Attn
letiCS stand they simply outclass the
other organizations, and they Will con-
tinue to do SO unless something hap
pens to cause a more even adjustment
of play ing Strengt tn
The most encouraging feature of the
Nationals work during the last month
has been the form shown by two OF the
Young pitchers-Shaw and Bentley.
Both these boys have evidenced capa-
biIities which. if continued, will I'M
doubleday place them on the list of
regular hurlers next spring. For awhile
this son il appeared that Griffith's
recruit pitchers We're not going to come
through in the manner that mad been
expected but recently Bentley and
Shaw have shown surprising form, to
say the least. Shaw still ls bothered
somewhat by lack of control. but he
has improved so much in this respect
that there is great hope he will, by be
ing worked regularly, continue to do
better work. Bentley did SO Well
against the Athletics and New York
that II is hard to believe that his per-
formanceS are not indications of per-
manent success.
If Bentley and Shaw continue to pitch
as capably as in the last month they
Will be wo' ked regularly during the re-
mainder of the season. and that is GER
tain TO give them q lot of experience
for another year. II Griffith could start
his 1915 campaign with Bentley, Shaw,
johnson and Ayers, and possibly Boeh-
ling pitching dependably he would have
little else TO ask for in the way of
staff of hurlerS. especially when 1T is,
considered that one or more OF the
other men may develop well enough TO
be used considerably.
Doc Ayers will probably pitch one of
the games in ST. Louis tomorrow ii a
double-header is played: if the Mound
city club decides to sta e only one con-
test Ayers is the probable choice for
that. Doc" has not worked this week,
and he ought to be in good enough
shape to give the Browns all and more
than they are looking for.

Good progress was made yesterday in
the running off of matches at the fall
tournament of the Bachelors Tennis
Club Ter the championship of the Dis,
trict of Columbia. The weather con-
tinues almost perfect for fast play, am
the contestants enter into the sport
with a vim that makes it ENJOYABLE
from a spectators viewpoint as we'll as
the players. The gallery was large
last evening, and it was furnished
splendid entertainment.
Some disappointment was felt over
the outcome of the Ballard Moore-Paul
Treanor match, as it was thought the
latter would make a better showing,
but the former is at the top of his
game, and simply swept the younSster
aside, winning in two sets, 81, 10.
Treanor has played much better tennis
than In yesterdays contest, but he
would have had to put up wonderful
attack to outpoint Moore.
The real battle of the day developed
when Dudley Morgan and John Graves
came together, and the pair was so
we'll matched as to require three sets
before victory was reached by the for
mer. the score being 10, % and CT.
Both players worked like Trojans, and
at the finish were almost exhausted.
Gordon Plays Well.
Spencer Gordon placed two matches
to his credit and will go into the semi
finals. He defeated Buckingham rather
handily, 60, GO, but found the task
of eliminating Burton somewhat more
difficult, especially in the first set,
which was finally won Is, while the
second was easy, GO. Many of the
wise men pick Gordon to battle with
Connie Doyle for the title, although
Moore may upset calculations.
The committee having the tournament
in charge has been running off the
different events with clocklike regu-
larity and everything should be cleared
up by Saturday night.

CLUB JUDGMENT. - Various
players have widely different
views regarding which club to use
on the next shot through the
green. I have noticed that the man
who, when he gets up to his ball,
obviously hesitates as to which
club to use. fails in his effort
more often than the one VINO
quickly makes up his mind ana
goes to the shot.
Good players have often advised
US not to make up our minus @.
to which club to use until we get
up to the ball and see what Kind
Of lie we have to play from:
This may or may not be good
general advice, but l have seen
nearly all of them select the club
from the bag before they set up
to the ball.
AS you walk up to the ball you
cannot help mentally figuring
that you will need mid-iron or
mashie for the next shot. 1t will
do no harm to take the club in
hand as you get up to the ball.
Nine times in ten your judgment
will be correct and you will have
saved yourself the bother of
worrying about club selection as
you prepare to take your stance.

BY J. ED GRILLO.

The Nationals lost the final game of
their home series to the Red Sox yes
terday by a score of to .. The visitors
were the first to score, getting a run
across in the fourth. The Nationals
evened things up in the sixth, but the
Sox got the counter across in their
half of the ninth inning which gave
them the decision.
a double along the left field foul line
by Speaker, an infield hit by Lewis,
which moved him up to third, and
single through short by Hoblitzell. The
Nationals tied the score in the sixth,
when Milan walked and stole second
and Gandil clouted grounder by
Gardner so fast the red-hosed third
baseman was unable to stoop before
the ball went by him.
Decisive Run in Ninth.
Shaw started Boston's half Of the
ninth by walking Hoblitzell. Janvrin
tried to sacrifice the former Cincinnati
player to second. but dumped an easy
grounder to Shaw. who threw WIG.
Hoblitzell was making an attempt to
reach third, and Foster lost sight OF
the ball on Milan's effort to stop him.
The heave went to the visitors bench,
and under the rules Hoblitzell was al
lowed to score and Janvrin to take
third. The side was retired in order
after that. Janvrin being caught at
the plate on an attempted squeeze play.
Shaw and Wood pitched so well that
the game was little other than a
mound duel. Shaw was in more tight
places than the Red Sox hurler, and
was wilder, but he was effective when
men were on. In the sixth the Red
Sox filled the bases on walks. but did
not score. Wood did not seem to be
working hard, nor did he appear to
hut he evidenced considerable reserve
strength whenever there was real
danger.
