by trolling. by still fishing and, best of
all, by sklttering. The outfit necessary
for skittering is a flexible rod from 12
feet to 10 feet long, 60 to 100 feet of small,
easy running line and free running
reel of average size. No leaders are
necessary. Take a double smell cast on
a hook ranging from a nalf to three
quarters Of an inch.
To the upper end of the smell tie two
plain smells, which at the junction with
the line are to be wound for two inches
with a strip of lead about four inches
long and about the thickness of the back

The best bats to use are chugs, shin
ers and the belly taken from a perch
or small pickerel. The skitterinE is done
by sharp movement OF the wrist, NOV

From the Brooklyn Citizen.


Although Brooklyn fans regret the in
ability of the Robins to overhaul the
Phillies, the Phils will go into the worlds
series with Brooklyn fandom roofing for
them to whip the Red Sox. The PhiIIies
have not only won the championship, but
they have also proved that the feat can
be done without team Iesorting to row
dyism.
A quieter and better behaved ball cIuh
than the Philadelphias of this year never
paraded under the big tent. The victory
of the Braves last year was ascribed 10
their fighting spirit and there never was
any question about the Braves having the
fighting spirit. 1t was again in evidence
this year. But the Phillies have proven
that a team can win pennant by stick
ing closely to the business of playinR
baseball, leaving umpire batting and
other forms Of rowdyism to the other
team.
