of the players:
II recognize the superstitions of bail
players. For example. back in 1904.
when Bowerman was with the team,
he came TO me one day and said:
LAS | came in today ! saw team
of white horses driving past the Polo
grounds That's good sign. Watch
me kill the ball this afternoon
He did. The belief in his supersti-
ton had given him confidence. Bow
erman spread the tidings OF the white
horses around the clubhouse. The next
day somebody else saw the white
horses. so the day after. By the end
of the week the entire team was hit
ting like II house on fire. They all be-
neved in the superstition. and it gave
Them confidence. One day my short
stop. Dahen. remarked:
Funny those white horses always
happen to drive past the ball park
Just when we are coming into the
clubhouse. It's certainly lucky.
IL heard him and couldn't keep back
smile. On the day Bowerman fold
ne he had seen the horses ] made up
my mind that everybody else would
see them as long as II helped their
batting So | engaged man to drive
past the Polo grounds every day. That
Is Il fact. and II shows the lengths to
which Il manager will go to cater to
ball players supcrstitions.'

MACK IS PAYING
 HEAVY PENALTY
Sale of Famous Star Affects Golfers of Owners of Athlefics-Team Is
 Now Transforming.

Philadelphia, Sept. 16.--What a downfall for the former mighty Worlds champions! The Athletics who still are champions of the Amer ican League, have had such small crowds that the mana cement has been compelled to resort to bush league tactics to collect a few stray jitneys.
 There was no American League game here yesterday, neither will here be today. Yesterdays schedul- ed game with St. Louis was played in ! forced double head last Saturday, while another artificial double-head- r vii be created next Saturday, when oday's scheduled game with Cleve- nd will be played.
 In the meantime the Athletics are
 a short transforming trip, pick
 , up jitneys from the yokels in
 e.aware and Maryland. These are he Athletics who in their fifteen fear career in Philadelphia have won ;ix league pennants, three Worlds Championships, and until this year have only finished twice in the sec end division.
 Philadelphia is making Mack pay dearly for the sale of Collins, Barry, Murphy and Shawkey, the release of Plank, Bender and Coombs and the enforced vacation of Baker.

Smearing an Old Gag.

It has been an ancient custom to josh Boston for her innate culture and Philadelphia for her alleged somnolence. But the fact remains that in the realm of red-blooded affairs where sport runs riot, or in the realm of sportive affairs where red blood runs riot, Boston and Philadelphia take the lead.
 Where does Philadelphia enter :? Well, she has had her share of world championships. For 1915 she may soon have another shot at the same. And there is now practical certainty that either the amateur lawn tennis championship or the golf champion ship will be awarded for 1916 to the Merton Cricket club. n
 It is in this latter respect that Philadelphia is in what a number of more learned folks than we call a quandary. She would like to have the lawn tennis championship. Possibly she can get it. She would like to have the amateur golf championship. Almost to a certainty she can get it..

But it isn't likely she can have both unless the dates are changed from the arrangements of the present year.
 Which calls to mind the suggestion that for 1916 those in charge see that the lawn tennis and golf champion ships be billed for separate dates. Both for 1916 will be held in the East, and there are any number of sport loving citizens who would like to see 10th. Tn addition to which each sport would get better play and at- tract keener interest if separate dates were arranged.
 Don't you think" writes Sideliner, "that despite the fact Johnston beat both Williams and Mclaughlin the latter two are the better players 2" Johnston is amateur lawn tennis champion of America. That alone ranges beyond any opinion of any argument.

Credit. for Moran,


 Sir: Don't you figure that if Moran wins the National league pen Dant this season. he will deserve even more credit than stallings got last year? Remember that from the Phillies of 1913, Moran lost Seaton, Lobert, Magec, Doolan, Knabe, Brennan and one or two others. He lost most of his stars-yet put his team on top. Isn't this about the leading baseball achievement of the last ten years? w. H: G.
 Moran deserves all the credit there is, but the only chance Philadelphia ever had to win a National league rennant was in dispersing about two- thirds of that colony you speak of. The bunch could play baseball, but the only drawback was that it wouldn't. It was the hardest bunch to handle in the game. We doubt very much whether Napoleon, Joffre, Von FIindenburg and McGraw could have driven that 1913 Philly clan be- ycnd a sluggish canter. Moran 8 present lineup hasn't as much ability, but far more ambition. His present clan has refused to quit under fire, where the old Philly delegation went around with a searchlight and a pair of field glasses looking for a chance to blow.

There is no blighting that fails to leave it's balm. If baseball interest should sag we will have no more ticket speculating and no 1usty roar from around the land to secure from fcur to. eleven tickets each for the next world series.
