HERZOG MAKES RECORD.
Cubs Veteran Infielder Played 40
Straight Games Without an Error

CHICAGO. September 23.-What is
believed to be a world record for con-
sistent fielding by second basemen was
achieved Sunday afternoon in Chicago,
when Charlie Herzog of the Cubs went
through the final game of the year
there against Boston without making
an error. 1t was the fortieth game in
which he performed consecutively
without being charged with a miscue,
and it was the forty-seventh contest
without an error in fielding batted
balls or in taking throws at second
base. The two errors with which he
is charged since joining Fred Mitch
ellis forces were chalked against him
for wild throws, one to the plate and
one to first base.
Herzog has not gone through his
fotty games without making a mis-
take by not trying for every grounder
that is knocked in his territory. He
does not shirk on the hard ones, but
plays them as quickly as he does the
easy ones, and in setting what is be-
lieved to be a world record he has
made many wonderful plays back on
the grass and back of second base.
He has also made some thrilling plays
in front of the bag and on slow
grounders, proving that his exhibition
has not been a f1uke, but the result
Of natural speed and skill.

Pat Moran, the astute leader of the
Reds, was just about driven to dis
traction about a month ago over the
condition Of his outfield. He had
absolutely no kick coming on Eddie
Rousch Or Greasy Neale. but Rube
Bressler wasn't such-a-much as un-
derstudy for Sherwood Magee. OF
course, you must remember that
Bressler is a pitcher and gave his all
for the Reds cause in the outer pas
ture, but then his all didn't measure
up to the standard of a championship
team.
Then something happened.
A big "break" came the way of the
Reds.
They had been tipped off to an out
fielder in the Southern Association, a
husk of humanity who reminds you
for the world and all of Duty Lewis.
His name is Lewis Baird Duncan. bet
ter known to followers of base ball
as Pat" He hit .294 for Bfrmlng

mark with the Reds

Rutgers has one of the best coaches
OF the country. but Foster Sanford
will have to build up large gaps left

I Feltner ana Breckley are hard to re-
place. An interesting feature of the
Rutgers situation is that Sanford is
endeavorinE to build up graduate
coaching staff to insure the future
OF foot ball at the institution, and in
order to accomplish this he will do

the team and the coaches at the same
time.

while the form Of annoyance popu-
larly known as "razzing" is much de-
CRIED in professional base ball.
While unsportsmanlike attempts to
rattle players, etc, is one Of the
least desirable features of our ma
tional games, there is no fun to a
game unless one is allowed to vent
approval or disapproval. Outdoor
sports induce outdoor methods.
A person has just to attend q game
to see the amount Of enjoyment these
fans" get out of their exhortations
to their favorite players.
And the same way at the college
games. Not everybody can play. but
all OF them can yell and shrek to
their hearts content, which. after all,
is form Of recreation when we fig-
ure how little opportunity our civ
ilized life gives US to let off excess
steam.

Never before has the foot ball sea-
son started of so early or with such
great enthusiasm. Formerly very few
teams called their men together until
the middle of September. This year
many started the very first of the
month. This shows the realization of
regular scrimmage work necessitated
by game without considerable pre-
liminary practice.
Harvard and the Navy were among
the early starters. Harvard has a
coterie of coaches (which certainly
should be able to put foot ball knowl-
edge into their teams. Bob Fisher is
at the head, but he has practically a
coach for every position on the team.

 Several distinctions are uiaps, such as the statement that wool yarn $ made nom short wool fibers and the worsted is made from long wool while woolen is carded, and worsted is comhed.
 Both these distinctions are true but the real fact which makes the difference is that in woolen thread the. fibers are somewhat tangled and running in all directions, while in worsted the ffbers run exactly paral- Tel.

The following letter of commenda- tion concerning the war activities of the Knights of Columbus was written by Lieut. Kenyon, who has recently returned from duty overseas, and who takes this method of voicing his appreciation of Casey:
 Editor, Bisbee Dany Review-I re- spectiully request that you publish the following account in your publi- cation, to the end that the people of Bisbee may know just what the K of .. man has done for the soldiers over there,
 "I have just returned from over seas, where l was a member of the Tenth field artillery Before going further, I must say that the Tenth field artillery was organized at Doug las in June, 1917 I joined it in july of that year and served with it throughout the war
 'I think, therefore, that I am in a position to know just what the k, of C. man has done for the soldiers who went abroad to fight for humanity. The K. of c. man, as l have found him. was an energetic, hard-Yorking and steady fellow, who was always trying to cheer the boys and to make them happy While we were at the front, the K. O. C. man was always cn hand, speaking kind words and giving magazines and papers to the boys, Tn addition to real necessities o1 life, which he dispensed in a noble effort tc make them forget the hard ships of war.
 "I, myself, have noticed several times K. Of C. men carrying wounded men off the field under heavy fire, and taking them to first aiG stations for treatment and in many other ways they were a God-send to the boys. 1 am greatly impressed by the K. c. man and the soou work he has done for the United States sol dier in the trenches. He is. worthy of all the praise he can get, and 1t cannot be too strong.
 q can praise and thank them for the several times in which they nave lightened my burden throughout the war. The wonderful work of the Knights of Columbus n the great conflict will never be, forgotten, and the organization will always have a high place in the hearts of the boys who went across.
 "os course, there were other organ izations in the field-the Y. M. C.
