MACK CANCELS GAMES
Athletics Will Not Play Philiics in
 Spring Series.

Philadelphia, Jan. 5.-The num- Der of games to be played by the Philadelphia American league base ball team during it's Spring training trip in the South was reduced last night by the cancellation of all con- tests with the Philadelphia Nationals. Connie Mack, manager of the Ath- letics, announced that the Phillies management desired to call off cer- tain games and that he had decided not to meet the National league champions at all if the entire sched- ule could not be carried out
 The Athletics were to have opened their Spring series with the Phillies at St. Petersburg, Fla, on March 23 and were to have played seven games with them, the last at Raleigh, N. C.. on April '. The cancellation of these games, MT. Mack said, would not in terfCrc with the remainder of the Southern schedule announced yester- day.

Sinclair to Purchase Chicago Stock In-

Cincinnati, O., Jan. 5-According to both parties in the transaction, there is no hitch that appears seri- ous enough to prevent the sale of the Chicago National league club by Charles Taft, owner of a majority of the stock, to Charles H. Weeghman, former president of the Chicago Fed erals, and Harry F. Sinclair of Okla homa, Who owned the Newark Feder- al league club
 Sinclair and Taft were closeted for an hour yesterday and at the con- clusion of the conference both an- nOunced that further negotiations would take place today upon the ar rival of MT. Weeghman from Chica- go, and that, as far as either could now determine, there were no serious obstacles in the way of the cOmple- tion of the sale.

BOYS CLUB SKATERS
 10 RACE JAN. 22
Director Pilz Arranges Some Ex- Cellent Sport at White Oak Park

Physical Director Arthur A. Pilz of the Boys club has practically com pleted arrangements for a skating car nival at White Oak on Saturday. Jan uary 22, which is arousing consider able interest among Young America at the club. The preliminary program of the afternoons sport includes seV- eral races including 100 yard dash, 22O yard dash 440. yard and 1-2 mile events. As there are mum Der of athletes at the club who are pro- ficient at the art of skating some fast exhibitions of speed should be wit messed.
 There is probably no teacher of athletics more popular with a class of students than MT Pilz is at the local club. Every evening this earnest young man is at the building shortly after z o'clock, and from his arrival until his departure there is not dull moment for the boys. It is ill. deed a wonderful sight to pay a visit to the club any evening, and see the work that the young athletes arc capable of performing. Particularly good is the horizontal bar trapeze and horse gymnastics, that the little fellows perform.
 Director Pilz, is one of the best athletes that the city has ever pro- duced Starting his career at an early ago. he enrolled in the local Y. Nj. c. A., where he imm ediately show ed an interest in gym work. His abil- ity was soon recognized by the phy- sical director at that time, and he was always given place on teams competing against out-of-town as- sociations in athletic contests. AS he grew older he took up athletics out doors, and his remarkable successes are evidenced by the numerous tro phies that he annexed. He became a member of the Xavier A. c. club Of New York, and while competing un- der the clubs colors, he made an en- viable reputation for himself, also assisted in placing the club among the foremost athletic organizations ] in the Metropolis.
 He later took up the work of ath- letic instructing and held a number of important positions i'll Connecticut and New York. He later went south where his ability was soon sent broad cast through the Southern states. Flo was also prominent as an announcer ' possessing a voice. which was audible and clear and he has since offlciated 1 at a number of state field day events in the state Mr. Pilz was married 1 several years ago, and since that time he has not been seen in public very | much as. an official but his love for l the development of boy athletes has l caused him to spend his evenings in 1 the local Boys club

other season will find him unprepared. Nothing definite about the strength of the Giants will be known until the final disposition of Fed stars is made. If John J. gets Benny Kauff he should have a great outfeld in Kauff, Burns and Dave Robertson. Kauff is a whirlwind. Burns, an undoubted star, had an off year last season. And Dave Robertson has drawn enough experience with his natural ability to take his place with the elect.
 McGraw will be somewhere in the first division this summer to a cer- tainty. His one chance to finish 1-2, to have a good, clean shot at the flag, depends upon his pitching staff.
 Tesreau Only Pitcher.
 Last summer this staff curled up like a feather applied to a crimson flame. Neuritis dumped Mathewson before the first gun was fired. Tes- reau dropped well back. Marquard lost every shred of his old effective ness. Poll Perritt couldn't pitch up an alley. The youngsters McGraw had banked on proved to be jokes. He had no pitching at all. In point of pitching effectiveness McGraw had only one pitcher among the first twenty five-Jeff Tesreau, who was nowhere near the top.

In adition to the slump in his own material McGraw will find keener competition ahead, with Braves, Cubs, F'hillies and Dodgers all strengthened over past years. This goes for the Reds, who may prove to be 2 for m1dable machine. But a manager that can finish first on five starts and second on five starts out of thirteen seasons is not to be crowded out of It by any dope of the winter league. Just how far McGraw will go from last place is quite a guess. But watch him start.

To finish 500 or better any one year is considered to be a good seasons work. To finish with an average above 500 for thirteen years is the work of a superman.
 The complete cave-in of the Giants last summer was the bitterest blow McGraw has ever known. For the first time in his career the last month of the season found him utterly over whelmed by a force of circumstances he could not meet.

SPORTS TERSELY WRITTEN.

It is believed at the University ot that when the Board of Regents makes it's report on the 1n- vestigation of athletics in the uni versity it will mean the removal of G. w. Ehler, director of athletes, who seems to be unpopular with the undergraduates and alumni. The re- gents are expected to recommend some one for coach of the football team, who will be chosen sometime this month. Among those mentioned as candidates are Phil King, the cld-time Princeton man; Eddie Ma- han, Dobie. and Wilce.
 Joe Tinker who will succeed Roger Bresnahan as manager of the Cubs expects to unload a lot of surplus players on the Cincinnati Reds in order to obtain Heine Groh, the hard hitting second baseman.
 Cleveland has a one-legged athlete in Russel Kriss, who is described as "one of the athletic wonders of age,' and promises to be a star basketball player in the public schools ranks. Kriss has won seven letters in grade school sports. He is a broad and high jumper, plays a line position ill football, and an outfield in baseball. In basketball he plays guard and sticks to his opponent closely.
 Boston Athletic association has started a golf school for it's members with M. J. Brady formerly pro- fessional at the Wollaston Golf club, and George Bowden of the Tedesco Country club as instructors. St is expected that team will be develop ed to play other athletic clubs, par ticularly the New York A. C., which has several excellent golfers in it's mem bership.

McGraw's campaign this season should be one of the most spectacular ever known to baseball. Fourteen years ago, late in the season, McGraW followed George Smith and Horace Fogel, Giant pilots. He took charge of the club in last place. For the next twelve campaigns he set a mana gerial mark that no man except Con- nie Mack has ever touched. In those twelve succeeding seasons McGraw finished first on five occasions, second on five occasione, third once and fourth once And then in his thir- teenth campaign, after an unbroken record in the first division, his ma chine at last collapsed and dropped to last place.
 Remarkable Achievement.
 Look back at this record. In ten of his thirteen years as Giant man. darin McGraw has finishel 1-2. This in itself is one of the most remark able achievements off all time-and all time is quite a spell. Starting in 1903, after he had drawn a brief chance to reorganize the tail-enders of the year before, McGraw has led the Giants in 1880 games. Of this number he has won 1,165 and lost but 765, leaving him a thirteen-year average well above 500.

and'its enthusiasm was shown through
frequent outbursts Of applause and
many curtain calls. These taking part

happy In the music than in the other
parts in which she has been heard here,
particularly ROSind, she il yet afforded
by 1t opportunity 10 display somc OF
the brightest ornaments of her some

Her voice last night. as noted the first
time .she sang the part here, was light
in color. Of beauty In quality and un-
evenly produced. In the srNtet It's lack
of sufficient 'tonal power prevented the
giving Of proper balance to the whole,
Her intonation was remarkably correct.
She showed some feeling together with
much charming sentiment. and in the
mad scene her delivery gave cause for
genuine admiration
