III Big League teams are supplanting
the names of the representative
cities in the baseball universe. Perhaps it
is due to the fact that the great space
given baseball has put the fans on more
intimate terms with all Big League ball
clubs. To refer to the New York Ameri-
cans as the "Yanks" surely sounds more
familiar than to speak of them as the
"New Yorks."
Major and Minor League teams always
have had nick names, but a score of years
ago the fan seldom used them, except
when discussing his own team.
"Let's 60 out and see the Detroits play"
said the New York or Philadelphia fan of
fifteen years ago.
No one in the East ever thought of call
ing the team from Michigan "the VOL
verines," its former nickname. To be shut
out in those days was "to be Chicagoed."
With the words "Cubs' and "White Sox"
crowding Chicago into the background in
baseball journalism, the phrase "being
Chicagoed" has disappeared from the slang
of the national game.
Even the nickname of such great team
as the old Baltimore Orioles seldom was
heard much outside of the Maryland
metropolis When Hanlon, ,McGraw, Jen-
nings, Keeler, Kelly and that crew came
to town, they invariably were referred
to as "the Baltimores."
No club owner would have thought of
putting the teams nickname on the shirt
fronts of his players in preference to the
name of his city up to ten years ago. Such
a course would have been considered dis
loyalty to the city, as ball teams were sup
posed to have considerable advertising
value.
Connie Mack was the only exception.
From the time he first put ball club in
Philadelphia in 1901, the official name of
his club has been the "Athletics," the
nickname of the old Philadelphia club of
the American Association in the eighties.
Even since the American League invaded
the East twenty years ago the Athletic "A"
has been familiar sight on the American
League trail
In the last five or six years. other nick
names began to appear on baseball uni
forms. First they appeared on the coat
sweaters, but gradually the nickname
blossomed forth on the shirt fronts. Both
Chicago teams discarded the time-honored
&C" of Cook County, Illinois, and let the
world know they were Cubs and White
Sox respectively. The Red Sox, of Boston,
were one of the first teams to spell out
their team name on their manly bosoms,
while the Cardinals and other teams fol-
lowed suit.
The genesis of the various nicknames of
the Major League outfits makes an inter-
esting contribution to baseball history.
How many Pirate fans know why their
team is known as "the Pirates" or how
many Cubs know why they are "the
Cubs ?"
There is no more famous nickname in
baseball than that of the present Worlds
Champions, the New York Giants, the
crack club managed by John McGraw.

MOTOR OF THE FUTURE
By Mr.. L. B.
AA1HAT can reasonably be expected
w of the automotive engineers in the

way of improvements in the power
plants of the automobile, motor trucks and
tractors of the future, in comparison to
what has already been accomplished in
the past fifteen years?
Will the cars of the future have gaso-
line kerosene or oil engines? Will the
engines be of the explosive or expansion
type of internal combustion? Will the
power plants be steam, electric, or COM
bination of any two; such as gas-electric
or steam electric? If steam power plants
are used will the engines be reciprocating
or turbine, or in case of the internal COM
bustion engines, will they be an improve
ment on the present type of multiple cylin-
der design, or rotary or rotar or a COM
bination of the reciprocating and rotar or
rotary mechanical movements?
These are only few of the questions
that are in the minds not only of engi-
neer's and designers of motor equipment,
but, the motoring public as well. People
are asking one another what may be ex-
pected in the way of improvements? The
American is the most exacting customer
in the worlds markets today, and so is
always looking for and demanding i'm
rrovements at all times. This not only
manufacture.
Not only can great Improvements be ex-
pected in the power plants of the cars of
the future but also in the steering and
braking mechanical units. Sometime ago
subscriber to trade journal asked why
no one had developed the steering gear of
car so it could be steered by power the
same as power boats? There is a de-
mand for four-wheel brakes, which l un-
derstand are common in France, Germany
and Italy and are now being taken up by
American manufacturers, due to the de-
mand of the motoring public. There is a
car on the market now so equipped.
The development of new and improved
ideas in the motor truck and tractor lines
are going forward at all times Just of
late there has been an eight wheel truck
put on the market on the west coast, used
as motor bus, carrying twenty passengers
and able to travel at the speed of fifty
miles per hour This car has four wheel
truck at each end of the chassis and is
considered far safer than the average car
as it is claimed that there is no danger
of skidding even on wet and slippery
pavements. If such be the case, then there
is valuable point gained for the skid
ding of cars is very dangerous to every
body, not only to the people in the car
but to pedestrians as well.
May the good work of the engineers, de-
signers and inventors 60 on and make
not only better and more efficient machines,
but, safer ones for everybody concerned.
May they be Justly rewarded for their eff
forts, so that they will be encouraged to
take up other ideas that may prove of
benefit to their fellow men.

vantage of the failure of the Association
to reserve these players the Pittsburgh
Nationals signed Bierbaurer and the Bos-
tons signed Stovey.
The American Association termed this
action "piratical" and broke with the Ma
tional League, starting a new baseball
war. Persons opposed to the National Lea
que in this fight spoke of the Pittsburgh
team in derogatory sense as "the Pr
ates." 1t stuck, and today is as fixed in
baseball as Giants or Cubs.
The Phillies, of Philadelphia, always
have been called by this unique nick name.
1t is, of course, not difficult to find it deri-
walton, as it is an abbreviated form of
"Philadelphias." AT times, the Philadel-
phia Nationals have been known as the
Quakers, while during Red Dooin's regime
as manager they were called "Dooin's
Daisies" but the name Phillies always
sticks.
The Cincinnati Reds always have been
"Reds." The present day Reds of Gin
cinnati are lineal descendants of baseball's
first real professional team, the Cincinnati
Reds of 1869, which toured the country
without meeting defeat.
The Cardinals also are named after the
hue of their hosiery. The original St.
Louis team of the National League wore
red uniforms, and was known as the Car
dinals. The team soon dropped out of the
league, but later re-entered the parent Ma
jor Circuit. After the merger of the Ma
tional League, and for while the St.
Louis Nationals were the "the Browns"
) However, when Won der Abe lost control
of the club, it returned to its original nick
name "the Cardinals" and has been known
as the Cardinals ever since.
Though the Boston club is one of the
charter members of the National League,
its nick name "the Braves" is modern
title. Prior to the American Leagues in
vasion of Boston, the team was known as
the Boston Red Stockings, and the battles
of the Boston Red Stockings with the Chi
cago White Stockings of the National Lea
que were as famous as the modern contests
between the Boston Red Sox and Chicago
White Sox of the American League.
Later the Bostons took their names from
their club presidents. When Dovey was
president, they were called "the Doves"
and when Russell became the executive it
was "the Rustlers." Then when Gaffney
bought the club, it was switched to "the
Gaffers," horrible name to wish on a
ball club.
The name was very unsatisfactory even
to the new Boston owner, who gave the
Boston fans a chance to select new nick
name for the club, and BRAVES" was
selected A year later the Boston team
made the word BRAVES" the talk of the
nation when they climbed from last place
in July to a Worlds Championship in
October, winning the worlds title in four
straight games from the supposedly in
vincible Athletics.
The Brooklyn Dodgers received their
name from the complicated trolley system
in the Borough of Brooklyn. The name
originally was fastened on the club by a
New York newspaperman, who was
obliged to dodge hundreds of trolleys in
reaching the old Washington Park grounds
in Brooklyn. He dubbed the team "the
Trolley Dodgers" and it page 4, OoL y

aggregation is made up mostly of little fell
lows, Bancroft, Frisch, Burns, Rawlings,
Nehf and Young, the word "Giants"
stands for big things in baseball, and is
one of the greatest individual assests in
the game. No matter where the Giants
play on the Major League belt or on the
exhibition trail of the deep sticks the
word "Giants" acts magnet to draw the
fans within" the gates"
Jim Mutrie, recently discovered living
in poverty on Staten Island, was the man
who christened the New York Nationals
"the Giants" and gave them one of the
greatest battle cries in the country.
"We are the people," was Mutrie's
rallying call.
He~was manager of the first New York
National team that ever won a champion
ship, the team of 1888 and 1889. The
team was made up largely of strapping,
big fellows, most of them over six feet,
fellows like Tim Keefe, Mickey Welch,
Buck Ewing, Jim O'Rourke and Mike
Tiernan, so Mutre called his club "the
Giants" name which becomes more
strongly entrenched with each passing
year.
On learning of the plight of Jim Mutrie,
grand parent Of the present day Giants,
Charles Stoneham, president and leading
stakeholder of the New York Nationals,
put Mutrie on weekly pension, which
will be paid to him for the remainder of
his days.
The name of "Cubs" dates back to the
Brotherhood war of 1890, though it was
not until several years later that the Chi
cago Nationals adopted this nickname. 1t
was a name, which was born during an
hour of travail, and was given the team
by the Chicago fans themselves.
Prior to the Brotherhood fight the Chi
cago Nationals were the "White Stock
ings," one of the famous names of old
time baseball. During this fight practical
ly all the Chicago stars, Williamson,
Pfeffer, Farrell, Ryan, Duffy, Dwyer,
Gumbert and Van Haltern, jumped the
club, leaving Al Spalding with his Chica-
go franchise and his manager, Cap Anson.
Anson hastily scrambled together a
team of youngsters who became known as
Anson's Colts.
But Chicago fans going out to the West
Side grounds would remark, "That's
pretty good looking bunch of cubs that
Cap has surrounded himself with"
Gradually the name of Colts began to
disappear, and "Cubs" took the forefront
until it became the the clubs nickname
by general consent. Today the Cubs are
rather on the downgrade, but in the days
of Chance, it was the most famous name
in baseball.
Pittsburghs nickname, 'the Pirates"
also dates back to the ancient wars of the
game. 1t. too, was an offshoot of the
Players Rebellion of 1890, but more di-
rectly involved the National League and
the old American Association. Following
the collapse of the Brotherhood, its players
were ordered back to the clubs from which
they had jumped.
The Athletic Club, of Philadelphia, dis
banded during 1890, but the American
Association claimed title to its players.
Through an oversight the Association
failed to put on its reserve list the names
of Lou Bierbauer and George Stovey, two

REUNION HELD
AT SEATTLE OF
EX- -SALEM|TES

John G. Wright, purchasing
agent for the state hospital, re-
turned Tuesday night from Sc
attle where he has been visiting
with his daughter. While in the
Sound city a reunion of former
Salem residents was held in honor
Of Mr.. Wright. The party was
merely get together for the old
er settlers of Salem who have
moved to Seattle and there were
no speeches, according to Mr..
Wright. 1--WE just got together
and talked over old times" he
said.
Among the names of those pres
ent were the following: William
L. Gray, Ella Chadwick Gray, EN-
ma Plummer Chadwick, Dan
Waldo Bass, Agnes Byrne, Judge
Mitchell, Judge Gillian, Beva
Wiswell Gillian, Mae and Lottie
Byrne, Mrs, Charles Uzafovage
and Cyrus T. Yeaton. Mr.. Wright
said that until the reunion there
were many people living in Seat
tie that did not know that some
OF their previous neighbors were
residing in the same city. 1t sery-
ed to renew old friendships and a
plan is now being made to make
the reunion an annual affair.
In the course of his conyersa-
tion Mr.. Wright recalled some of
the conditions under which he
lived when he first came to the
Oregon country. He is 85 years of
age and came across the plains in
1853. Travel those days was
made chiefly by OK teams. The
party of which Uncle John was a
member left Bloomington, ILL.,, on
March II, 1853, and arrived in
the Willamette valley on Septem
Der Is Of the same year, nearly
six months after starting the long
journey. When Mr.. Wright first
came to this district there were
less than 400 people in Salem and
less than 500 in what is now
Portland. There was no Seattle
nor Tacoma. The white popuIa-
tion on Puget Sound consisted
mostly of company of soldiers
stationed there.
At the present time there are
only three people now in Salem
who were here when Mr.. Wright
arrived They are Mrs. Lincoln
Wade, Mrs. Frank Small and
Mrs. Dave Pugh. The first gro
Gerry store in Salem was owned by |
Mr.. Wright and it wasn't a brick
either, he added.
At one time four Of the judges
IN the bench of the Washington
state supreme court were old Sa-
EN- residents.

COLLINS PLANNED TO
REDRAFT CONSTITUTION

London. Aug 24.-(By Asso-
ciated Press AT the time of his
death, Michael Collins had under
consideration plans to redraft
several sections of the constitu-
tfon Of the Irish Free State so as
to placate the more radical re-
publican element. This was made
known today by Michael Francis
Doyle. Philadelphia lawyer, who
arrived from Dublin, where he
went to consult with the mem bers
Of the provisional government.
The first concerned the taking
OF the oath of allegiance to the
king of England; the second con
cerned ratification of Irish gov
ernmental acts by the British
priYy council. while the third
hinged upon the stipulation that
the powers of the Irish govern
ment shall be derived from the
treaty between the Free State.
