WORLD'S CHAMPIONS
 BEST RUN CRITTERS
Besides Winning Title and Crab
 ping Bale Of Coin, That's All

The records of the sixteen major league clubs during the past baseball season present some unusual and in- teresting features. While these sta tfstics are not based upon the official league averages. they conform close ly to the authentic percentages and for the purposes of comparison are thoroughly reliable, being compiled, in many cases. from the official box scores.
 The records show that the Chicago American league club, winner of the Worlds Championship series led the junior organization in both the num- Der of games won and the total num- Der of runs scored. In no other de- partm did the White Sox hold the premier position although the aver age of the team was very high. Bos- ton played the greatest number of games during the season due to five tie contests. Detroit, which finished Fourth, led in hitting while the Boston Red Sox held the opposing teams to the lowest number of runs The figures also give a clear in sight into the loose play of the Phil adelphia Athletics. who finished in last place. The Mackmen scored next to the largest total of runs being but 33 behind the Chicago club in this l respect and but 23 hits short of the Detroit record which enabled the 1 Tigers to win first place in this de- l partment of the game As an onset to this excellent offense. however, the l Athletics showed the poorest defen- sive play of any club in the American 1 league. The Philadelphia team made the largest number of errors; had the l greatest number of runners left on 1 the bases and their opponents scored
 more runs against the team than against any other club on the circuit
 In the National league the New
 York Giants. winners of the pennant
 and losers of the Worlds Series
 played the most games, completing
 their full schedule of 154 games wtf
 four tie contests bringing the tota
 up to 158. As was the case with the Chicago White Sox, the pennant win
 ming bination in the senior organ
 ization also scored the most runs, thu Giants record in this respect being I136. Cincinnati, however, piled LII the largest total of hits while thu l Chicago Nationals perpetrated thu greatest number of errors. The Bos i ton Braves had the most runners stranded on the bases during the sea
 son of 1917 and Cincinnati proved thu easiest to score runs against, as thu other seven clubs collected tota [ of ell runs from the Reds in thu
 157 games played.

MAY BE NEW LEAGUE.
But Will Be Treated Solely As War
 Measure, Johnson Ayers

Chicago Oct. 30.-The question of shorter playing schedule for the ma- jor leagues and the possibility of a third major league as a war meas ure was revived today with the re- turn of B. B. Johnson. president of the American league.
 There will, however, be opposition to the proposed 140 game schedule. as Charles A. Comiskey, owner of the White Sox. has already expressed his disapproval of any shorter schedule than 154 games. It is said that two other club owners in the American league will oppose a short schedule
 "A new league might benefit the game during the war and 1t should be considered war measure ex- clusively," said MT. Johnson. Tt is certainty that the minor leagues will have to make some adjustments next season in order to get by. They cannot go on as they have in the past.''
 He did not indicate what cities might be grouped into a new league.

Army to Bolster Its Line.

West Point, N. Y., Oct. 3o.-The big drive for the Notre Dame game was set in motion yesterday when the coaches took the Army football team into the gymnasium for chalk talk. Dissa tisfaction with the showing made by the soldiers in their game Satur- day against Villanova was manifested in the grilling the men got yesterday. The skull practice was followed by light signal drill designed principally to take out the kinks and bruises which resulted from Saturdays bat tie.
 Vandegraff is expected back next Saturday. His presence along with Luce and Adams, 200 pound for wards is expected to bolster up the frontal wall. There is hardly pos sibiIity of Gene Vidal getting out for the Armys biggest battle of the sea- son.
 If the Navy game does not mate realize the Notre Dame contest will be the chief attraction on the Army's- schedule this year.

PRO GOLFERS BEATEN

Evans and Maxwell Victorious in Red
 Cross Benefit Game Over Barnes
 aud Loos.
 Philadelphia. Oct. 3O-In one of the most remarkable matches ever wit messed on a Philadelphia links Chick Evans of Chicago, national amatehr ana open champion, and Norman H. Maxwell of Aroniminl<, North and South champion, defeated James M Barnes, Western open champion and open champion of Philadelphia, and Eddie Loos, professional at the Phila delphia Cricket club, in best ball tour ball match at the White marsh Valley Country club yesterday on the thirty eight hole.
 The match was for the benefit of the Tobacco Fund for Soldiers, and more than $40O was collected from the gallery.
 The morning round was all in favor of the professionals, and at the end of eighteen holes they had the seeming ly overwhelming lead of six holes, but Evans and Maxwell rallied in the afternoon and gradually whittled the lead of their opponents until they squared the match on the thirty-sixth hole and emerged with a remarkable victory on the thirty-eighth.
 In the morning round Evans was way off his game, but this was ex- cusable since he had never seen the course before, and in addition he had motored down from Bethlehem, and for the first nine holes at least he had not got the stiffness out of his joints.
 Tn the afternoon Evans revealed his true form and he was ably assisted by his partner. Going out Evans took 38 strokes, but coming in he required only 33, for score of Fl. Of the holes won by his side he was respon- sible for four, while Maxwell won two and they halved three holes for a, win.

Cambridge, Mass, Oct. 30.-The Harvard athletic authorities have sent out a second appeal to thousands of the universitys graduates asking con- tributions to purchase rugby and soc cer footballs for American soldiers abroad.

Providence, R. l., Oct. 30.-With Colgate's scalp snugly tucked away, Browns football eleven is now out to beat Syracuse in the game sched uIed here on Saturday next. Tester day afternoon began the hard grind for this event The practice on An drews Field began principally in sig nals Seven of the men who helped put Colgate out of the running re- ported, but received a comparatively easy afternoon.
 Rube Sinclair and Shaw are the only two badly injured men on the list now, but Sinclair probably will be able to play in the Syracuse game Shaw probably will remain on the bench. It is believed that next Sat urday will find Albright ready to meet the Syracuse eleven.

POOR GENERALSH|P
 COSTLY 10 COLGATE
McBride's Running of Team and HubbelPS Puntin6 Disappointing

Hamilton, N. Y, Oct 30.-Neutral followers of football who saw Brown defeat Colgate by to last Satur- day give the Bears full credit for their remarkable victory, but hold that poor generalship lost for the Maroon. If Anderson's generalship, not to speak of his individual excel lence in the running game had been behind Colgate it would, according to expert judgment, have won easily. Mcbride, the Colgate quarter, was guilty of poor judgm ent in his plays. However, excuses count for naught. The fact remains that if Colgate did not have Anderson, Brown did not have Pollard, and there you are.
 The statistics of the game favor Colgate. The latter gained PA yards by rushing, as against only 130 for Brown. Colgate got 13 first downs to for the Bears. Where Colgate fell down was in the forward passing game, in which it was so expert un- der Anderson. Seven Colgate for ward passes were tried and not one was completed. Brown tried three passes and completed one for six yards.
 Another department in which Col gate collapsed was bunting. Hubbell averaged only thirty-six and three- quarter yards in his kicks for Colgate. Last year, in a driving rain and with a mud caked ball, Hubbell did much better. His failure in that depart ment in itself was enough to account for Colgate's defeat.
