Connie Mack Holds
Hopeful View of Future

CHICAGO, Aug. 16.-While baseball
magnates contemplate sorrowfully
their dwindling Golfers, and with the
first Of September ever in mind, look
with apprehension toward the future
Of the national pastime, Connie Mack,
the "Old Fox" of baseball, sees no
cause for alarm.
Neither, according to his views, will
the recent embroglio at Cleveland. In
which both National and American
league magnates participated in swat
ting" Ban Johnson, endanger the po-
oisitn the American league president
occupies with regard to the sport in
general.
Mack's conclusions may be summed
up as follows:
l. Unless the war continues two
years or longer baseball will feel no
permanent i'll effects.
2. There will be no break n the re-
lations between the American and the
National leagues.
8. The seeming unpleasantness de-
veloped at Cleveland will b forgottn
and Ban Johnson's prstige unimpaired.
4. No reorganization of the National
Commission with a view to the elm
nation of Garry Hermann Is contem'
plated.
5. American soldiers and sailors Will
not permit baseball to die out.

LEAGUE LEADERS TO
GET GOOD FIGHT

Saturday afternoon at Exhibition
Park the Natco and Malleable teams
OF the s. A. L. will play the opening
game OF the double header. In the
second game the Simplexers will at.
tempt to show the Jenkins-Vulcan
crew q few fine points Of our national
sport.
In the middle of June these two
teams met and the Natco and Simplex
teams came out on top. The Natcos
won by the score Of IL but the SIM
plexers had q hard time getting away
with their victory, FL. Sturm allowed
the Simplexers but two hits.
In the first game Of the s. A. l..
season the Natco team won from the
Malleable squad in q runaway, 81,
and the Simplexers defeated the Jen'
kins crew, so, the same afternoon.
So according to dope the League
leaders have the games Saturday
"clinched." but a few weeks ago the
Malleable and Jenkins-Vulcan teams
won from the Simplex and Natco
teams In one OF their unexpected re-
turn to form.
Last Saturday the Malleables won
from the Jenkins-Vulcan crew and the
Simplex team won from the Natco,
Those games put the Simplex and
Natco aggregations on tie for first
position and this tie may last all the
rest of the season. Next Saturday II
the Natcos and Simplexers both win
or both lose, they will be still tied but
II one loses and the other wins that
may clinch the pennant for that team
as the two leaders only meet twice
again this season.

Why doesn't the government han
die the world series?
Big league moguls have decided to
stage the big show after Sept. 2. the
date named by Secretary Baker on
which the magnates are to wind up
their season and release all players
Of draft age SO they may work or
fight. So far the government has not
intimated that it will prevent the SER
les.
In the past the players have shared
the receipts Of the first four games
of each series, and the moguls and the
national commission have gobbled up
the rest Of the coin.
Now why not
Pay the players participating at
their regular salary, pay the nee
essary expenses Of the series and
then turn over all the rest OF the
proceeds to some worthy war
fund or use it for purchasing atf-
letic equipment for the soldiers?
1t would mean many thousands or
dollars more for war purposes. The
series would be helping to raise war
funds instead of helping to increase
the riches Of the magnates.
Baseball has been classed as non
essential sport The government Is
simply suffering the players to con
tinue the game. Other men with their
wealth and ruggedness are in wal
service. The players might well be
contented with their regular salary
| for the series.
And the fans would turn out IN
greater numbers than ever before II
, they knew their money was going to
help beat the Huns. Why let the mag
mates get fat on the flood of coin that
will be poured into the box office fol
these games?
OF course the sad part Of 1t is thai
! the big league magnates haven't hae
patriotism enough to suggest this
plan themselves.
