AMERICAN YOUTH NATURAL SHOOTER Age Makes No Difference in the Workmanship of
 Americans
By GEORGE PECK

There is something about the lad who is indiginous to the soil of the United States which, early in his ca reer, makes him mark almost by intuition.
 His initial weapon is the bow and arrow. slingshot, or baseball. with any one of which he must become &C., curate, not by aiming in it's accepted sense but by instantaneous calculation and judgment.
 Note the accuracy of any American boy as he pitches baseball. No boy of any other nationality, civilized or savage, could hope to compete with him.
 Undoubtedly this, in a measure, ac- counts for the fact that we are be- coming a nation of trapshots already over 500,000 strong, and constantly growing. The trapshooters of today were the boys of yesterday and the day before.
 Age makes no difference, for so long as he shoots he is still boy, using the same quick judgment and accur- ate calculation as he dir 20, 20 or 40 years ago when he could send bail hissing over the plate or put her home" from the extreme end of the field.
 By the same token, if shooter, despite his years. is still boy. para doxical as it may seem, the boy or tender years, who is permitted to take up trapshooting, in bearing, deport- ment and self-respect. becomes man.

BASEBALL SEASON
 NOTABLE FOR THE
 UNUSUAL FEATURES
Clubs in Both American and National League Partici- pate in Cluster of
 Odd Records

New York, November 5.-The baseball
 season of 1916, notable for the number of
 unusual features in major league pennant
 play, developed a number of games Tn
 which heavy hitting, run-scoring and base
 stealing were prominent features. A care
 full scrutiny of the box scores for ths
 entire period discloses a cluster of odd
 records that might also be termed freaks
 of big league baseball play. ~.
 The American league statistics show
 that during the season every club in the
 organization figured in at least one game
 in which the times at bat numbered more
 than 40; runs equaled or exceeded 10;
 hits 15- and stolen bases five. In the Ma
 tional league the highest at bats ranged
 from 49 to 62; runs 10 to 13; hits 15 to
 23 and stolen bases five to Il.
 Figures indicate that the Boston Red
 Sox led the American league with 6l
 times at bat, while Chicago was second
 with 59 and St. Louis third with 57. The
 New York Americans made the greatest
 number of runs in any one game accumu- latlng 19 while Boston and Detroit were tied Tor second place in this respect with 17. The Chicago White Sox won first place in hitting with 20, while the Detroit ana NeW 1Ork cluDS divided second nOI.- ors with 19 Boston, Cleveland, Washing ton and Philadelphia all hammered out | + hits in at least one game during the | pennant race. In stolen bases the New Y ork Americans were also leaders pifer- i ing nine in one contest while St. Louis and Detroit were tied for second place with eight each. l In the National league the Chicago | Cubs took first place in times at bat | in one game with 62. Pittsburg was sec-
 ond with 61 and Brooklyn third with 5S. l New York and Brooklyn were tied in the l greatest number of runs, each scoring I 13, and it is of interest to note that the 1 Giants record score in this respect was made against Pittsburg in the opening game of the string of r victories which | the club piled up early in the season and previous to it's record-breaking run of 2d | games. Cincinnati was next with 2 runs l In hitting, St. Louis came first with 2S l safe drives, Brooklyn second with 21. and ] New York and Cincinnti tied for thlrd with 19. St. Louis easily led the Na- i tional league in the number of stolen | bases in any one game, having collected | Il, while New York and Brooklyn quail 1 fled for second place with seven each, l Boston and Pittsburg being third with six. | The following compilations show the l greatest number of at bats, runs, hits
 and stolen bases made by each club in | the American and National leagues Tn l any one game during the play for the | pennantS:

A Visit With BelascO

From David Belasco," Joe Mitchel
 Chapple, in National Magazine.
 Up a winding stair illuminated by softly-shaded lights, found myself In the studio retreat of David Belasco, under the artistic, sloping rafters or his New York theatre. Although re- gently constructed, there is an atmos- phere of age about the place-the scenic wizardy of David Belasco is manifest even in the architecture or his playhouse As the curtains of the reception room were drawn, the light revealed trophies associated with the career of the great Napoleon, recalling the days when the Little Corporal" was the central figure of the world.
 Wearing picturesque, flowing robe of rich, dark material. David Belasco entered (without waiting for conven- tional attire as he had not desired to keep me waiting). The feeling came over me as he stood there that before me was the figure of a monk of medie- val days The prematurely gray hair, dark, heavy brows, the soft twinkling light of his eyes completed the picture.

is the only Saturday of the entire sea son on which there is not a game scheduled for Redwood. The majori- ty of the close followers will either journey to Atlanta to witness Alabama battle Tech or to Auburn to see the Plainsmen meet the University of Florida. On the next Saturday the Vandy-Auburn game will be staged at Redwood Field, while Georgia and Tech are battling in Atlanta.
 The football season has now reached it's most important stage and every game has vital bearing on the de- ciding of the championship. All of the elevens will be in their best form of the year by Saturday and some real football battles, equal to those staged to date, should be played before the curtain drops on Thanksgiving Day,

North Carolina went down to defeat before Virginia Polytechnic in- stitute, which gave indications of hav- ing one of the strongest elevens in the Virginia-North Carolina section by hold ing Yale to 19 points recently.

GENERALS VICTORY
 BIGGEST SURPRISE
 OF EASTERN GAMES
Defeat of Navy Shows That Southern Elevens Are Not Weak-Big Three Are
 Winners

New York. November 5.-Wa shington and Lees impressive victory over the Navy eleven at Annapolis Saturday was one of the big surprises of the weekend football play. and it demon- strated by reason of the fact that the Generals only last week had been held to a tie by Georgia Tech, that southern teams no longer may be held too lightly by the big eastern ma chimes.
 Had it been necessary, it is prob able Washington and Lee could have made additional touchdowns, but the winners elected to play defensive foot ball after their early scoring. In view of the wide range of the victor's play it is likely that the Navy coaches will be able to correct weaknesses not heretofore suspected in the Middies' game.
 Virginia, the only other southern team to invade the east, gave the liar ward squad little more than an aft ernoon's practice. The Crimson used many substitutes and never was in danger.
 Yale was particularly fortunate in defeating the strong college aggre- gation. The team from Hamilton out played the Blue, but the breaks of the game and a remarkable exhibition of defensive strength at a critical period swung victory to the Eli.
 The defeat of Notre Dame by the Army was extremely gratifying to the Soldiers, especially as they used al- most exclusively the overhead tactics introduced at West Point by the h. dianians so effectively three years ago. The victory demonstrated that the Sol- diers are rounding out one of the strongest teams in West Point for many years. For all round brilliance the Dartmouth Syracuse game was the feature of the day. The speed and dash of Dartmouth was the winning fs sctor but Syracuse made the game thrilling at all stages.
 Buckneu was too weak to bring out anything unusual in Princetcn's rep ertoire and Cornell and Pennsyl vania, though they came through with victories over Carnegie Tech and La- fayette, respectively, showed that they still were teams in the making. The victories of Brown and Pittsburg were in the same category but Rutgers found Holy Cross foeman worthy of her best football and only hard work brought victory.
 Ohio State and Northwestern univer- sity will fight it out for the 1916 Championship of the western "nig nine at Columbus. O.. November 24.
 These two teams have caused the two biggest upsets seen in years.
 Northwestern ' to 0 triumph over Indiana, Ohio States 14 to 13 victory over Wisconsin and the II to 9 down. fall of Minnesota at the hands of Illi- nois were the distinct surprises of Saturdays games.

This puts Auburn high in the race in the minds of most observers, supply ing one thing that has been lacking in the Plainsnens offensive. Coach Nc Gugin and Captain Rabbit" Curry of Vanderbilt watched the game, and Me Gugin afterward was credited with the statement that Auburn was 25 per cent stronger than the great team of 1915.
 Vanderbilt which has shown power ful aggregation, plays Auburn November Is, and should the Plainsmen win, the game between Auburn and Georgia Tech here Thanksgiving Day may decide the championship. Tech still leads the coun- try in points scored, with 354, and its standing was appreciably raised yester- day when Washington and Lee beat the Navy 10 to 0, in view of the fact that Washington and Lee and Tech tied, z to z. The Navy beat Georgia T to 5.
 Alabama and Tennessee still are unde- feated and technically in the race, but many believe that, barring the uneX- pected. their victorious days are about over. Alabama plays Georgia Tech here next Saturday and Tennessee plays Van- derhilt ar Knoxville.

AGITATION RENEWED

Agitation for a game here between van derbilt and Georgia Tech who are not scheduled to meet this season, for either November 25 or the week after Thanks giving, has gained considerable headway during the past week. According to re- ports here, the proposition met with the response from Captain Curry and Coach McGugin that the Vanderbilt players and coaches would welcome such an addition to their schedule provided the faculties of the two institutions agreed. They added however, that the game would have to be played after the regular sea son closed.
 What yesterdays schedule lacked in the number of important battles it made up for in the closeness of the two big con- tests decided. Both Alabama and Auburn won by the closest of margins but ac- counts agreed that they outplayed their opponents. The Auburn tackles and ends showed great ability to follow the ball by recovering most of the fumbles which marred Georgia's play. Alabama made long gains on Sewanee, but was unable to produce the final punch needed to score a touchdown until the last period.
 Auburn lost Left Tackle Wynne for the season when his left leg was broken in the second period of the Georgia game.
 GREENS WORK FEATURRES
 Outside of Ducote's place kick the in- diyidual stellar work of the day was credited to Sellars of Sewanee, Green of Alabama, Prendergast of Auburn and Donnelly and J. Reynolds of Georgia. Sellars was largely responsible for Se- wanees score against Alabama after Green had fumbled a punt and a Se- vance player recovered. Green, in turn. played prominent part in Alabamas S touchdown and starred throughout Prem dergast proved himself one of the hardest players in the south to stop, and was mixed up in practically every Auburn play, Donnelly, although failing on two trials for field goal, saved Georgia sev- eral times by his bunting. J. Reynolds was practically the only Georgia player who could gain consistently.
 Chattanooga came the nearest of any team to causing a real upset in calcula- tions, by holding Tennessee to the close score of 12 to '. Tennessee's inability to | break ur Chattanooga's forward passing and Chattanooga's inability to hold when- 1 ever their goal line was in danger kept ! the Volunteers behind for three periods ! and the greater part of the fourth.
