Mack became reminiscent one day
on the subject of the decline and fall
Of championship ball clubs. The old
Baltimore Orioles, champions In the
COS, he recalled, went to pieces be-
cause most all Of that famous team
came to believe they knew as much
as Manager Hanlon and that they
had made him." Connie continued:
They also seemed to think that
they were ready for managerial posi-
lions. AS it happened, some of them
(ike McGraw, Jennings, RobinSon)
were qualified. but that feeling broke
up the team.
"The Cubs went the same road a
the Orioles. It was a veteran team
and many Of the men began to be-
lieve Chance did not know any more
about the game than they did. The
men gradually drifted away from
their leader. The break naturally
had to come when that team spirit
disappeared.
"Where these teams disintegrate6

No. 10-Startinx Over Again

No. 1O-StarttnG Over Again
To almost everyone, apparently,
except Connie Mack, there always
has seemed something darby mys-
FERROUS about the drastic smash : up
of the club that captured four pen
nants and three worlds champion
ships.
After the 1914 season and the
teams debacle in the worlds series
with the Braves, Mack suddenly
asked waivers on his three pitching
aces, Bender, Plank and Coombs, be-
sides subsequently selling. Collins
Baker, Barry and other stars.
Many years later, Mack told me hi

become so monotonously good as tt
lose in drawing power; not because o.
any suspicion of crookedness o.
gambling, such as was goSsiped about
but solely because of the fresh up.
heaval in Organized Baseball caused
by the launching Of the outlaw Fed
eral League. and in order to hell
save the game"
When the famous BLACK Sox'
scandal of 1919 revived rumors abou'
the 1914 series, Mack declared him
self plainly:
Il almost wish that team neve
had been broken up. Every time
gambling scandal, league Of nation
or poor wheat crop is mentioned, sur
enough they asked me whether tina
was not the reason I broke up tn
1914 team.

Outcome Of Battle With West
virginians Will Indicate
JFlickers' Power

Grand Forks, N. D., Sept. 25.-(H)-
Their first game OF the season out Of
the way, North Dakota's Flickertails
this week turn their attention toward
preparations for the second contest
to be played against Superior Normal
at Superior, Wis, next Saturday and
also have their eyes on Davis Elkins,
colorful Senators from E1kins, w. Va,
who come to Memorial stadium Oct.
3, for the first big home game Of the
season.
While the two practice brushes viii
give some idea Of what the Nodak's
strength will be, the real test Of the
early season will be made by the
powerful Scarlet Hurricane from the
Allegheny mountains. What happens
at Memorial Stadium that day will
indicate, to q large extent. how the
Flickertails fare In the remainder Of
their schedule against such oppo-
| sition as Army and Duquesne and
| what conference opponents will do
against the determined effort to
| check them In their bid for a third
| straight North Central title.
That the Senators viii be q real
test goes without saying. If North
Dakota can beat the southerners
/ there Is no telling how far the Flick
| ertails win 60 in their bid for ma
\ tional recognition. As q matter Of
fact, in face Of Davis Elkins' record
for the past three years. those who
think they know their football will
be satisfied with q close score either
way.

In breaking up his club. Mack sold
Eddie Collins to the Chicago White
Sox for a record price Of $4,000. Jack
Lapp and Eddie Murphy, outfielder,
went along in the same deal fol-
S 1000. Frank Baker retired to his
farm in 1915 but was reinstated and
sold to the New York Yankees In
1915 for approximately $4,000. Barry

Yet If st. Louis wins the best they

need but two victories in four games
to clinch the title, no matter what
the Cubs do.
