BALTIMORE. Nd, Sept 2.-Balti-
more Federal League fans are on the
anxious bench due to the rumor that
there would be no Fed team here next
season. The rumor was given more
than the ordinary passing notice. due
to the fact that the directing board of
the club met in secret session this
afternoon and went deeply into the
affairs of the club. Just as soon as
the meeting was over reports were
rampant that Baltimore would not be
in the Federal League next year
When the officials were sounded on
the subject they had nothing to say.
other than to remark that they would
like to find out where the leak was
among the directors. They did not
even want it known that a meeting
had been on and even withheld the
news of the sale of Shortstop Mike
Doolan to the Chicago Feds. The sale
was known to be true. however. and
when told that the fact would be
printed an official said that Manage;
Knabe. who is in Brooklyn. would
give out the details.
The deal for Doolan had been on
! for some time and just as soon as the
proper sum was offered for his ser
vices he was allowed to go and will
join the Whales in a day or two.

Will JOE WOOD face
The Great ALEXANDER ?

Are Alexander. the great Philadel-
phia pitcher and Joe Wood, the SEN
sational Red Star slabster to be the
pitchers who will meet in the first
game of the worlds series?
The Phillies and the Red Sox are
leading their respective leagues, and
certainly. if they finish in front. Mo
ran and Carrigan will send their best
pitchers into the opening game
Wood is leading the American Lea
gue's regular pitchers, with thirteen
games won and four lost. He has
come back and is pitching nearly as
good baseball as he did in 1912. when
his great work carried the Boston
Red sox to a world series champion
ship.
Alexander has held the Phillies at
the front through the hard summer
campaign. but seems to be wavering
a bit under the heavy pressure. He
has won twenty-four games and lost
nine. This season Alexander has
pitched three one-hit games and two
two-hit games. Four times the enemy
has made only four hits while he
was in the box.

WANT TO Abolish
base line coaches
Are Unnecessary TO Game,
at This Time, Says
BreSnahan
MANAGERS DON'T
AGREE ON POINT

Manager Roger Bresnahan. of the
Chicago Cubs. has taken an unusual
view Of third and first base coachers.
He favors the abolition Of the coach
ers and would approve Of a rule to
keep the players off the side lines
while the game is in progress. Coach
ers are unnecessary, he declares, and
The game without them can be played
as Interestingly as if they were on
the field
There are many managers who do
not agree with Bresnahan in his idea.
Hugh Jennings. Of the Detroit Tigers
does not think contest complete un-
less he is allowed to place himself in
The boxes at first and third, tear up
ihe grass and give his famous "E-yah"
veil. John McGraw is another who
would not favor the rule eliminating
the coachers. as il would stop him
from signaling 10 his men at the plate
and on the bases. lt also would pre-
vent his running up to argue with the
umpire and stop him from Joshing the
1hird baseman. These are his favor
dte tactics.
Other managers are Of the opinion
that coachers are essential most par
ficularly at third. because they help
the runners in their journey around
the bases. Many players can circle
the sacks without paying any atten-
sion to signals of the men on the side
lines. because they have learned to
use their own Judgment and know
when and when not to advance on a
ball. But there are many players
who need the advice of the coaches
whether to come ahead or remain at
a base. Leaders believe that coach
es have saved many a contest just
through their judgment in advising a
man to attempt TO score on a hit or
TO stop at third base.
MANY ball games are won and lost
during the course of playing season
through the actions of a coacher al
first and third base. The men gener-
ally selected TO go to the boxes are
plavers who have had experience ant
are supposed TO have superior ludg
ment In plays
