RUN AFOUL OF THE LAW
Cincinnati Plan to Draw Lots for
World Series Tickets Will
Be Amended.

CINCINNATI, September 1.-THE
plan for distribution of the world
series base ball reserved seat tickets
in Cincinnati, if the Reds are partici-
pants. has been slightly amended.
Under the original plan of allotting
the tickets through the lottery sys-
TEN of drawing, as announced, the
Cincinnati clubs officials had come
slightly within the scope of the fed
eral law as it relates to tickets or
prizes of chance. The necessity for
the changes became known when Au-
gust Hermann, president of the Gin
cinnati club. was summoned to the
federal building by First Assistant
District United States Attorney James
Il. Clark and Post Office Inspector
Morgan Griswold, who explained to
him just what was wrong, under the
law. with the original plan.
The officials pointed out what alter
atoms would have to be made, which
Hermann announced would be at
tended to at once.
Under the change which Mr.. Herr
mann promised to make, everything
will be all right" said Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Clark. Everything
has been arranged satisfactorily
Hermann said. There is ample time
to make the changes in the club s
plans.

| ample. If he loafs and takes no heart
interest in the club the men naturally
will do the same. But if he is always
on his toes the players will be the
same, that is a combination difficult
to beat.
This spirit OF fighting for ball games
did not have to be developed or forced
into the men. 1t just came. I try to be
with my players as much as possible
and am no less a manager. Be one of
the boys, is the best way to get along
and keep their minds upon the game.
The old Cub team used to talk base
ball morning. noon and night. That is
why it was a great machine.
"As manager it is my part to give
orders. They are obeSed to the let
ter not because / am leader of the
club, but because the men realize that !
am trying to do just what they are
trying to DOWN ball games. There
is not a man on the club who would
not graciously sit on the bench If
another player was capable of doing
better in the games. The spirit of
teamwork prevails, and that is why
we are on top"
Manager Moran is modest, almost to
extremes, but his players are willing
to give him all the credit that is due
him. That they respect his judgment
and ability is needless to say. They
show it on the field and have done so
all the season. OF the field they praise
him to the skies. and say he is a Won
derful fellow. With this spirit pre-
vailing one can easily see why the
Reds hustle every minute while they
are on the field.

MORAN TELLS HOW HIS TEAMS
HAVE BEEN ABLE TO WIN OUT

When Pat Moran, manager Of the
Cincinnati Reds, was asked how he
wins pennants, he replied: There is
paying atten' ion to business at all
times. We Play to win every game;
let the next one take care of itself.
1t has always been my policy to keep
my players minds of the world
series. I do not allow them to worry
about our percentage and insist upon
their thinking of only winning the
game in which~they play. When you
win games you win the pennant."
This is the second National League
title Moran will have won since
breaking into the managerial game
with the Phillies four years ago. and
more Importance Is attached to his
success because of the fact that he
has piloted clubs that have never be-
fore won a pennant. Moran made his
debut as manager with the Phiilies
in 1915. and that year won the flag,
the first flag the Philadelphia cub
year he supplanted Christy Mathew
son as manager of the Reds and is
almost at the door Of another cham
pionship.
There must be no loafng. We
worked hard and we would not be
where we are today If we had not
Every man hustled to the limit of his
ability When they all do that team

ing about his success as a manager:

Some Remarks on Putting,

The idea seems growing among
golfers that the game would be better
II the Importance Of putting were re-
duced. At the recent Pittsburgh
tournament many views were ad-
vanced. While do not think that
any of the suggestions Of the asita-
tors will ever be adopted, their
thoughts upon the subject make in
teresting reading. Today desire to
add my mite to the ideas advanced,
for il any one has felt the inconsist-
ency OF the game in respect to put
ting more than I have / should be
glad to meet him.
One writer suggests that the cup
think that this would aid in the elm
ination of the disproportionate value
placed upon the work of the putter, I
think 1t was Travers who figured out
that putting was As per cent of the
game. think it probably is about
that proportion. but surely it was not
the idea of the old Scotch golfers that
such should be the case. Very likely,
however, larger cups would permit
occasional approach puts to be holed,
and badly hit shots would go in, and
scores in the sixties would be easily
possible.
Would Eliminate Accuracy.
1t would eliminate the accuracy of
the putting stroke, and give more
Importance to the second shots-the
real master stroke Of the game. It
would make the play Of the best
golfers and would take away the
really beautiful silence that envelops
the putting green at critical moments.
The delightful uncertainty of the
game-the gallery tension, the defeat
of the expert by the inferior player
who has developed Unexpectedly a
wonderful putting streak, and other
happenings of like nature-would all
be gone.
These things. these thrills, are all a
part of the game. and strongly as I
feel that there is too great a premium
