WIZARD MACK IS
MAKING REMOVER
Baseball Wonder of the Age
Continues to Develop
Strong PLAYERS.

New York, July 13.-Connie Mack
has always been a wizard in develop
ing ball players. and his many sue
cesses in the American league were
largely due to his ability to drill his
players in the fine points OF the
game, both on offence and defence.
Three vivid examples Of NIack's I'M
canny way Of handling players can be
found on his club this year.
One OF these players is George
Burns, the first baseman secured by
Mack from Detroit through a deal
with the Yankees. Under Jennings.
Burns never advanced beyond the
stage Of an average good ball player.
But this year Burns is playing the
best ball of his career as member
of the Athletics under Mack He is
fielding-in better form than ever be-
fore and his hitting has increased
until today he ranks with the slug
gers Of the American league
Clarence Walker. the Outfielder. is
a player Of nearly six years major
league experience. yet never until this
season, in three years at St Louis and
two with the Red Sox. has he shown
the class he is now showing
Scott Perry. the pitcher over whose
possession Mack and George Stallings
had such a fine little row. is another
player who developed under Mack'E
tutelage. Perry used 10 be one of the
care free sort who did not keep In
the BEST shape. and Stallings passed
up this player as poor prospect But
after Mack developed him the Boston
club wanted him badly, which only
goes to show what Mack can do with
a player.

NEW YORK. July 13.-Had anyone

 After a while the young man got up from his prostrate position. Dazedly he looked around him. Then he talked to himself: My father" he said, assert ed that that saddle took him to court mother weekly for more than four years.

Prisoners of Duty.

The Turkish government k shortly to effect an exchange of 1000 British prisoners, but there will be still many left over there, and naturally they will need doctors. Under the Berne agree nent of December Inst it is arranged that one British doctor and five of the medical personnel of the ranks should be detained for every 1000 prisoners. No Inspection of prison camps under the Berne agreement has vet been made, but il is very probable that conditions there may necessitate l-ore doctors being detained. There are some things in warfare which are harder than actual fighting. and to stay behind in Il prison camp tending wounded and nostalgia men when others ioyfully set sail for home or active service requires all the unsel- fish devotion to duty with which doe tors gre credited by the lalfy.
