JAKE STAH[ PICKS
TIGERS AND REDS
Former Famous Ball Player
Likes Cincinnati and Detroit
as Pennant Winners.

ATLANTIC CITY, N, J.. August 20
"At this stage Of the race 1t looks to
be as though the Detroit Tigers in
the American League ana the Gin
cinnati Reds in the National League
have an edge on the other teams IN
their respective organisations in the
race for the championship Tag
Such was the statement at the Ho.
tel Traymore yesterday by "Jake"
Stahl. famous as a college athlete. a
catcher in the American League. first
baseman and finally as themanager Of
the Boston Red Sox, who, in 1912, de-
feated the New York Giants in the
historic series for the world cham
pionship.
Jake stahl of the big league has
now become Mr.. Garland Stahl. bank
etsi is tns seo He is panse
dent of the Washington Park Ma
tional Bank. on the South Side of
Chicago, which was "in the bushes"
when Jake became dominant in its
affairs-with deposits of about $780,
more than $5.000,OOo.
THE Cincinnati Reds have a great
leader in Pat Moran" resumed the
former boss Of the Red Sox HE seems
" nave uTe0 tHcIH Wllna the Oel1e1
that they can and WILL win. That old
confidence stuff is a great thing in
base ball. as it is. indeed, in every
walk Of life. The Reds are going
good.
However. John McGraw's New
York Giants are tough birds to beat.
McGraw is a great handler Of men
and fights to the finish. There is q
slight margin between the two teams
and the Giants may grab back the
lead. as they demonstrated in Thurs
come back strongly after unanimous
defeat.
'The Chicago White sox has been
leading the American League, but it
looks to me as though the strain on
Cicotte and Williams, the two first
string pitchers, would prove too great
and I look to see Detroit, with their
powerful hitters. overtake and pass
them.
This has been a wonderful year for
base ball. the attendance and inter-
est being enormous. The case of Carl
Mays and the legal ENHANCEMENT re-
sulting from 1t is likely to hurt the
game lot. Ban Johnson has been q
great leader, and think he is right
in imposing discipline with suspen-
sion on the big pitcher, who is a trou-
BILE man.
''It Is absolutely necessary at times
to impose rigorous regulation on ball
players for the good of the game, The
interests of the game are above the
personal whims and idiosyncrasies Of
individuals. Mays is a great pitcher
but inclined to be unruly, and unless
the rebellious spirits are curbed other
players quickly develop the temper
amentai stun and try to run things"

Several Quaker Foot Ball Candi

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, August 90
The foot ball team Of the University
of Pennsylvania. or rather the main

the coaches to whip them into shape.
During the past two weeks four or
more sure-berth men Of the Red and

Of players, with the addition Of less
promine ent candidates, have been con-
ditioning themselves for the postwar
series Of foot ball at Franklin Field,
tip top shape by the time the big
games roll around the latter part Of
October.
While at this time no predictions
are offered as to what kind of team
the Red and Blue will put on the
gridiron, and what success they will
have in the eight games to be played,
those in charge have started prepara-
tions for building winning COM
bination. No definite date has been
set by Head Coach Folwell as to when
preliminary practice will get under
way. but it will more than likely
start the first week OF September.
From the list OF $50 candidates
which has been made up 1t appears
as If Penn will have q strong team. A
majority of last years team will be
on hand when the call is given. Quite.
a few men who went to war and have
since returned and a new wealth of
material from the freshmen eleven
and other schools and colleges give
Head Coach FolweA an abundance of
material with which to build good
team. The nucleus is there. and 1t
only needs a short preliminary work
out and the team will be rounded into
shape.

AUSTRALIANS WIN
j. s. TENNIS TITLE
Defeat TiIden and Richards
in Challenge Round of
National Doubles.

NEWTON, August 20.-It is only a
short time since those who guide the
destinies of American tennis decided
not to challenge for the Davis cup,
as it probably would be unsportsman-
like to take advantage of the tennis
players of the rest of the world who
had been engaged in war work for four
years. Today America stands bereft
of her national doubles tennis cham
pionshfp, and it was carried of by
Norman E. Brookes and Gerald L.
Patterson, a couple of Australians who
were very active in the war and who
furthermore stopped off in America
only casually on their way home,
where they will defend the Davis cup
taken from America in 1914.
The Australian pair defeated Will
liam T. Tilden, I'd, of Philadelphia
and Vincent Richards of Yonkers, the
American champions, in the challenge
round for the doubles supremacy of
the United States at the Longwood
Cricket Club courts here yesterday in
five hard sets. The scores which at
tended the triumph of the visiting
antipodeans were Sc, 6-3, As,
4-6, 60. There Is little consolation
in the fact that the Yankee team put
up a hard fight, for as the holders of
the championship they were expected
to do that.

Big Gallery Present.

Long before the schedule time for
starting the match every seat and
everything that looked like a seat
was filed. Furthermore. there were
hundreds and hundreds who stood
around the courts craning their necks
to see every, stroke. Nor was 1t the
quisk-Stype of crowd that usually
watches tennis In fact. the gather
ing bore a greater resemblance to a
crowd at a base ball game. for there
was not good stroke that was not
cheered to the echo. However. the
gathering was not in the least par
tisan. Although practically every one
was anxious to see the Americans
win, the work of the Australians was
generously applauded.
Some idea of how the men shaped
up may be gained from what their
individual scores showed. Tilden was
the greatest offender in the matter of
errors. His total of misplays was
sixty. but he offset this somewhat by
earning so points. Richards had forty
four errors and % earned points in
the five. sets; Patterson. made forty
one errors and 81 earned points while
Brookes had only twenty-eight errors
and 25 earned points.
