In spite of the spectacular showing made Ly the Braves last fall against the Athletics, leading members of both the Tigers and Red Sox figure they would rather have a shot at Stallings' club this fall than to be- come involved with the Phillies.
 The answer is simple-the Braves have a good ball club, but they haven't an Alexander. Rudolph is fine pitcher, but he hasn't been going as well this season as last, and Ru- dolph, even at his best is hardly an- other Alexander the Great.
 One star pitcher can make terrific difference in short series If the Phillies should finish first either Red Sox Or Tigers, taking your pick, would have to meet Morans big sharpshooter in at least three games maybe four, if the series went to seven game run-and the American league winner would a good bit rather move against an even stronger club en masse than to buck up against as great slabman as Alex ander.

 Passing of Bender
 The passing of Chief Bender was another one of baseballs tragedies. Around this date last season Bender had won seventeen games and lost three, living in glory with world series entry. He was still this side Of thirty-four. in fine health, and in good shape, with one of the greatest arms and greatest baseball brains of the profession. The game has never known a pitcher who was any cooler under fire. Bender in his day was ranked by many as the greatest one game pitcher of all time; that is, the greatest man to tackle one all-impOr- tent rattle with the issue at stake.
 Ec and Mathewson were ranked as the two greatest money pitchers of their best under the final test, yet their temperaments were not alike. Both were possessed with extreme coolness, rare judgment and abiding courage. But where Matty was tense, watchful alert Bender carried 8 care jess ease that no other slabman ever had. The most momentous occasion of the season failed 10 produce any thrill in his unf1uttering breast. No one who saw the series will ever for get the manner he displayed toward the Giants back in 1911. In that first game Matty beat him in the hardest sort of battle by the mar gin of to 1. But even in that close
