The signing of Bill Donovan to con-
tinue as manager of the Yankees dur
ing the season of 1917 sets at rest the
oft-repeated rumor that John McGraw
of the Giants was slated for the Dono-
van job.
Incidentally, it is a certainty that
McGraw will be in charge of the Giants
next season. He has contract for
next season with the New York club
and it is matter of fact that he is
the highest paid manager the game
has ever had. Those in the know in
sist that McGraw draws more than
$4,000 per year, and he could hardly
expect to better Himself by going to
some other club next season.
One of the stories persistently
printed last season was that McGraw
was slated to have full charge of the
Chicago White Sox. acting as president
and manager. The story was started
by some one who has not got correc1
line on Charles Comiskey,. the owner
of the Sox, for the day is not near
when he will retire from his present
position with the club.
Comiskey has spent more than forty
years in base ball, and he has no m
tention of quitting the sport with
which he has been connected in every
possible capacity and which has made
him immensely wealthy.
Donovan made decidedly good
showing with the Yankees, finishing in
fourth place. No team ever had worse
luck in the matter of having its players
incapacitated. At one time Donovan
was minus the services of ten players
nine of them being injured and his best
pitcher, Ray Caldwell, missing.
Had his team been intact all season
it would have stood a good chance OF
winning the pennant. He may have
better luck in 1917, for the Yankees are
a nifty lot.
Just what disposition, if any. will be
made of Caldwell has not been an
nounced. but Donovan intimated one
day last season when here that he
would never allow Caldwell to return
to the game; that he should be ostra-
cised, for he is unable to keep himself

AMERICAN LEAGUE ON TOP
World and City Series Won by Ban
Johnson's Boys-Other
Pennant Winners.

NEW YORK, October 20.-The close of
the base ball season of 1915 found the
American League pre-eminent, due to its
victories in the world series and the two
city series which composed the post-sea-
son schedule of the base ball year. OF
the six teams which figured in these con-
tests the Junior league trio won twelve OF
the fourteen games played
The Boston Americans defeated the
Brooklyn Nationals four out Of five
games; the st. Louis Americans won in a
similar manner from their National rivals
and the Chicago Americans took fouI
straight from the Chicago Nationals
This playing form was a sharp reversal
from the result of the spring series. wher
the National League clubs won twenty
four games out of the thirty-nine inter-
league contests played just previous tc
the opening of the two major league
pennant races
In the minor leagues the majority Of
the f1aE struggles were reasonably close
ana there were less financial difficulties
and disrupting Of leagues than was the
case year ago. Among the circuits thai
confined their schedules to one season
the winning club of the Eastern League
showed the highest percentage. wher

The high school foot ball game sched-

According to past performances OF
the teams to be met by Harvard, Cor
nell, Princeton and Yale, neither of this
quartet should have anything more
than a good practice scrimmage. The
Massachusetts, Aggies. beaten last week
by Dartmouth by 81 to 0. ought not to
afford Harvard much opposition. Buck
nell is getting whipped generally and
Cornell ought to be able to turn the
trick, too. The Virginia Polytechnic
Institute against Yale and Lafayette
against Princeton are the way the
others of the big four lineup.

there may be some little question in

The Army and Navy are against two
teams of more than the average sec
ondary strength. West Virginia Uni
versity has a powerful physical COM
bination to place against the Navy, and
it may spring something of surprise.
The Sailors are much encouraged by
their game with Pittsburgh, and think
they can win. West Virginia may not
be so easy to defeat, though. Trinity
should not prove strong enough to
have much chance of beating the Army.

SO well as against Brooklyn. His field

"I consider it not only timely, but

national commission prohibiting any
player or players on your club from
engaging in exhibition games before or
after the playing season. unless such

Clause 8 of the uniform major

commencement or after the close
thereof, participate in any exhibition
base ball game. indoor base ball, bas-
ket ball or foot ball. unless the writ

given to him.

Why should not the United States

The Japanese are willing and eager

tai, If America is willing to give just
rewards for their labor. China would
welcome American capital, for she
knows that there is no string of terri
torial consideration tied to it. Chinese
coolies would be delighted to find
work in mines and factories The
hardest work has no terror for them
1t is empty stomachs. and the appall-

And America,-why should she OBJ

vestment, to the increase of China's
purchasing power. to the expansion OF
American trade with the Far East, to
