GREAT SCORE IS

New Football Stars of

Into Limelight.

Lander's high school elev-
en- was stampeded up and
down the local gridiron yes
terday afternoon when Cas-
per's moleskin lads made a
fiasco out of the seasons
football opener. The game ended
with a score of 81 perched on the
local goal posts and a weary zero
disconsolately limping off the field
behind OF the defeated Landerites.
Stanton broke away on the initial
KICKOFF from Lander with an s0-yard
run for a touchdown that netted
Casper seven points. Twice ore
during the game he scored. AT
quarterback Davis plunged through
the Blue from western Wyoming
once. McKelvey ripped across the
chalk lines in every quarter. adding
dozens OF yards at n time to Casper's
gains. He clipped across the out
siders' goal line once. Archambault
jammed his way over the tell-tale
mark twice before the final whistle
blew.
The ball was kept in Lander terri
tory practically all of the time with
tho Fremont county team scrapping
and slipping back under every Of
fensive play. No impression was
made by them when on the aggres-
sive against the beef hurled in their
way by the local squad.
No especial credit is due the
orange and black squads for their
practice fracas yesterday. In the
third quarter Casper's second team
played n ive-minute take-on against
the boys from the end of the rail
road" The second team was then
replaced by the third which finished
the quarter and managed to more
than hold its own.
Though 1t was reported prior 20

Increased girth of chest undoubt-

BY HENRY l..

United Press Sports Editor)
NEW YORK, Omitted PresseOct
6-Figures show and tho fans know
that John ]. McGraw is the greatest
manager that ever handled n major
league baseball club. No other
manager in the past has done what
the fiery leader OF the Giants has
accomplished and It is doubtful If
the record that he Is adding to year
by year ever will be equalled or sur
passed.
Since he assumed the manage
ment of the New York Giants. Nc
Graw has won nine National
league pennants and he has carried
three teams through to the cham
plonshlp in the worlds series.
No manager OF his day. with the
exception of Connie Mack. can ap'
proach his record and McGraw's rec
ord over a period OF years shades
that of the slim leader of the Phila-
delphia Athletics almost into insig-
nificance.
Mack has three worlds champion
ships to his credit and six American
league pennants, but In adversely he
has been as consistent a. he was in
prosperity, and his record is clouded
by seven years in the cellar, while
McGraw only once in his career has
failed to get the Giants above the
last place.
A Wonderful Record.
Nine firsts, eight seconds. one
third. two fourths and only n in
last place gives McGraw n record for
C in his line that has not been
equalled in any line of sport.
McGraw has been successful be.
cause he knows baseball from its
very foundation: because he has the
quality of leadership. the tendency
toward strict discipline. keen judg-
ment of players and the resources
to obtain promising material and de-
velop It.
McGraw's teams are always smart
ball clubs, because he knows base
ball, because he has the ability TO
teach It and because he Will have in
his club only those players who are
capable of thinking baseball as well
as playing the mechanics Of the
game.
1t has been pointed out IN the past
that McGraw lacks the ability to
Judge young ball players because so
many of them have developed into
stars after they had been turned
away from the Giants The peculiar
disposition of the Giant leader to be
only an opportunist has caused him
to part company with many ball
players when he knew better than
anyone else that they were going
to develop into great players He
acts on tho theory that he has to
build teams for today and II he needs
something else tomorrow he will
have to take his chances on getting
1t.
Right now the Giants have in
jackson and Mcguire two of the fin
est young infielders in baseball, but
he does not need them. If he felt
the necessity of strengthening his
outfield or his pitching staff and
could orange a deal he would let
either one or both of them go, al.
though he is aware of their ability.
Must Play McGraw's Way
McGraw knows ball players and
he know what they can do for him.
It isn't every good ball player who
can play for McGraw. however. and
the player, no matter how good he
is, who will not play McGraw's kind
OF baseball will not be tolerated on
the club,
The Giant leader has done a lot for
