''Beck's" Amen Corner
BY ~BECK."

NRIDIRON plans for Rio Grande
N park have been so arranged that
the fans in the grandstand can watch
all play IN the football games. The
field is ideal for football and recrea-
ton supervisor J. H. Slime promises
a better brand Of football than has
ever before been seen in FL Paso.
The high school team is the real FL
Paso eleven and It is up to the fans
to give the boys proper support at
the first game on Saturday after
noon.
DEMING is said to have an unusu-
= ally strong football team this
season while the FL Paso "HT'
showed its caliber on Saturday at
Las Cruces, so the meeting between
these two teams at Rio Grande park
next Saturday afternoon should be a
sport event of real Importance.

w logical contender" for the heavy

New Orleans next March. Now,
don't overlook the fact that Tommy
Burns Is the matchmaker Of the New
Orleans club and that Tommy has
bunch that he is "some trainer" when
It comes to putting out new heavy
weight stars. Just remember Lester,
McCarty, Pelkey, ct al True,
Tommy didn't have much to do with
McCarty but he gave the big fellow
his first lessons in the game. 1t
may be that Tommy will get busy
this winter and develop that illogical
contender" But for the fact that
Arthur PeIkey lost heart after his
fatal bout with McCarty, the writer
has little doubt that the big French
Canuck would be the "logical con-
tender" and a good one at that.

BOSTON CATCHER
LEADS PHILLIES
For Worth in World Series,
However, Phillies Make
Better Showing

is the ideal man to catch speed pitch
ing his chief reputation as a catcher
has been due to the fact that he has
caught smoky Joe" Wood, which is one
of the hardest tasks in the business,
especially when Wood is a bit wild.
Cady handles Wood to perfection and
he and Wood have become baseball al
finities, and since Wood certainly VIII
work in two games, Cady becomes cor
respondingly important as factor IN
this series.
Thomas Handles Left Handlers.
Thomas has been doing more catching
this season than either Cady or Carrl-
gan. and his handling OF the left hand
ers has been excellent. He has enabled
CarriEan TO stay closer to the bench
and devote more time to running the
team He is not a great catcher. al
though he is faster than either Cady
or Carrigan and throws very we'll even
If erratically.
II is we'll for Boston that the Phil
lies are not a base running ball CLUB
4 team of speed boys might upset tnat
catching staff which has not had
much practice in throwing this season
chiefly because their pitchers did not
allow opposing runners TO reach first
1t is a rule of baseball that player
must reach first before he steals second
and that kept Deroit from beating the
Red SON out OF the pennant because
two Of the Red SoN pitchers do not
hold runners close to the bases.
KiIIifer Holds Balance.
In OffenCive strength we find the
Boston catchers leading the Phillies by
a comfortable margin, and they also
are ahead bit in defenclVe operations
and on the seasons worth For worth
in the coming series Philadelphia
makes a better showing This is be-
cause of Killifer-always provided he
is in playing condition.
r.a-
If he were at the top Of his form Just
now. il would be a question as to
whether or not he would not reverse
the figures. OF course, killifer lost
caste when he jumped TO the Federal
league and then jumped back. 1t hurt
him. He has not received the press
agenting or the admiration since then
that was lavished upon him before You
don't read so much about killifer, but
the fact that his name is not so promi-
nent in the papers does not detract
from his worth out there in that white
washed angle
quick as Flash.
Killifer is one OF these hustling.
agile, cat-lize moving catchers that
have become so popular in modern
baseball He is quick, flash thrower,
making quick and unexpected pegs
around the bases. and he backstops
we'll He handles Alexander's speed and
Rixey's uncertain shoots with equal IA
cility, and he catches all styles Of pitch
ing. which, oddly enough, the Boston
catchers prefer not 10 do. KiNifer has
more speed than any Of the catchers
Of either team and is likely to take
chance on the bases. He hits normally
about $50 and hits well at any kind
Of pitching.

"KID" GEORGE has won a fine
- reputation among the fight
fans of New Mexico and now he is to
have his chance in a long bout across
the river Jack HerTick, may be a
long way from a champion but he Is
a tough trial horse and his caliber is
known to the matehmakers all over
the country. A decisive victory for
George next Sunday night at JuaTez
will mean that the Silver City
favorite will stand in line for more
bouts across the river and for bouts
, in the eastern cities.
ONE good rule has been adopted IN
connection with the present city
baseball championship series. The
managers agreed before the series
opened that the pitchers must re-
main on OF near the slab when
batter is in the box and not make
trips TO the plate for conferences
with the catcher. This cuts out de-
lays and speeds up the game.
COMMERCIAL league had very
successful season, despite the
fact that this was a hard year for
baseball and the success of the ANA
teur circuit is due largely to the
good work of president BILL" Pei
phrey and secretary L. NJ. Coyne.
Both Pelphrey and COyne worked
hard for the success of the league.
They extended many more than the
usual cOurtesies TO the press and the
scTibes extend their heartfelt thanks.
SUMMED up, FulleTton's dope on

out, would indicate that the Red Sox

While other youths in other lands. were blaming corkscreW night and day, Jess held d pitehfork in his hands, and tinkered with luscious hay. He worked till his suspenders burst, and honest sweat bedewed his brow, and when he entertained d thirst. he went and milked the nearest COW.

NEGLECT OF THE BOY.

Do not neglect your boy. Do not lose his confidence. Make him your friend Become his eonfidant. Let him come u you With 1tt fear in his Il aart, and confess h!s i.di cretio1s and weaknesses. Let him tell you of his troubles, and. as man to man. ad- wise him what is best This is the way to rear useful and helpful ezti- zens
 More than ore boy who sir aeere'y desired to confide in his father has refrained from doing this because Of a fear of reproof or punishment which might follow.
 Any father would be. surprised at the suggestion that he is running his boy by neglect; that his absorption in busin ss will result in the easiest thin" in the world to forfeit a boys confidence It will take only itt,e snubbng, little seeming. a little in- difference, a little ridicule, a little unkind criticism, little nagging an a little unreasonableness cn the fathers part. to shut off forever any intimacy and real understanding be tween himself and his son.
 One of the bitterest things in many d mans life has been the discovery after he has made his money, that he has 3ost him#hi h9ld en lis boy. Ie VOL q give large pert Of his for tdne to re.establish the confidential relationship that existed befoze te began to neglect his boy for busi- ness.
 IL is an unfortunate thing for d boz U look upon his f taer asa task mas- ter instead of d compea=or, al 1 70 dread 10 meet him because he always expects criticism or sco ding. Some fathers are constant y .iadti fault with their sons. never praisin4 t4em when they are really de efsine If praise and eacoufaeemeft. This is the sarast way to de. troy confidence and breed indifference
 Boys are needless and misehieYous Taey must be punished. Who eyef heard of the perfect boy2 He would not be ereditable representative of his sex if he did not do things fer which he must be punished But the byo is not necessarily bad. Punish him when he deserves t, but praise him when he has performed any task we'll This is the ton'c Of youth. Boys thrive on praise. That is wh most boys think more oftheir mother than they do Of their fathers. Moth CTS are more considerate and more sympathetic and likewise more affee- tiOnate

What a difference in their views have the two ex-presidents, Roose- velt and Taft, of President Wilson S attitude, with respect to the LtIsi- tania affair. The former wants war forthwith, the latter wants modera- tion and confidence in the president It is a good thing the former isn't president, for if he was there would be thosuands of brave boys go to their death and millions of treasrue wasted purely for revenge Thank heaven, our presdenit is not that sort of American citizen.
