High and Lebourveau Are in Tight

CHICAGO, September 1870 close Ii
the race for the American Association
batting championship that the result
may not be definitely known until off,
cial averages are released, some time
next Winter.
With but four games to go, Charlie
High of Minneapolis held a 3-point
margin over his closest rival, "Bevo'
Lebourveau of Toledo, in the unofficial
averages, while Mel Simons Of the
Louisville Colonies ranked third, only
digits away.
High, member of the celebrated
High base ball family, skidded point
to 1892 average during the next to
last week of play, but held his margin
when Lebourveau's mark slumped from
1871 to .379. Simons' average stood fast
20 1878.
Play Too Few Games.
Two other players had better averages
than High, but were not considered in
the running for the championship as
neither can play the required 100 games.
Fenner of st. Paul, playing in "a games,
had a 1898 average, while his teammate
Haas had mark of 1886. Other lead
ers in more than 100 games were G..

CullOp a Leader.
For all-around batting, Nick Cullop
ranked as the king of the circuit this

with $50; in hits for most total bases
with 1893, in home runs with "a and IN
runs batted in with a fancy collection
of 152. Simons of Louisville had the
most hits, PAS, and the most doubles

and stolen bases. He had 10 three-base
blows and 80 pilfered bags to his credit

batting during the week, the unofficial

average dropped a point, the Saints

Associated Press Sports writer.

TINE second division clubs of tl1s
National League, three of which
have no hopes Of improving
their present positions. have
some fine opportunities ahead for up
setting the apple carts of the threa
contenders for the championship.
The Phnlies, doomed 10 finish in the
cellar, already have caused a lot 0f
trouble for Chicago's Cubs and yester-
day they gave the league-leading st.
Louis Cardinals a great run for their
money before going down, to 8. They
meet the Cards four more times In the
next few days, then have one crack at
Brooklyn.
Pittsburgh's Pirates, who only lost
their mathematical chance of finishing
first as the Cards won yesterday, start
today in a two-game series with the
Robins and finish their season with
four games in st. Louis.
The Chicago Cubs, who gained tie
with Brooklyn for second place yester-
day as they took g. close decision from
Boston, 5 to 4. find themselves involved
with the Braves and Cincinnati for the
rest of the season. A sudden squirt on
the part of any one of these four TRAIL
ers could cause serious damage to the
hopes of its rivals.
How Leaders Stand.
But that squirt failed to materialize
yesterday and this is how the three
leaders stand

A five-run rally in the seventh inning
won for the league leaders yesterday
and enabled them to gain half game
on the idle Robins, but it did not appear
until Chuck Klein had given them a
scare by his thirty-s6venth and thirty
eighth home runs of the year to send
the Phillies off ahead. Fidgety Phil
Collins held the Cards under control
until the seventh, when two doubles, two
singles and two hit batsmen brought
them five runs and settled the game.
The Cubs had an even closer can

HIS so YEARS IN BASE BALL

, I'D bv a Supreme Court ruling depriving
| the club of the players who had jumped
| from the National League, but Mack
| plugged the holes and won his f1rst
pennant nevertheless, beating out st.
Louis and Boston. Waddell, Danny
Murphy and Socks Seybold were among
the requirements and the team put on
a sensational squirt, coming up from
last place to win the pennant. Seybold
| led the home run sluggers with Is, a
tremendous total in those days.
TN Waddell, the great southpaw, and
i Ossie Schreck, the AS of 1902 put
together one of the most colorful
batteries Of all time. Both were eccen-
trio, often comic, yet among the most
brilliant performers the game has ever
had.
Mack had handled the erratic Wad-
dell while at Milwaukee. He knew how
| to get the most out of the Rube's
undoubted talent.
'sIe was a big fellow with tremendous
speed" Mack said. But, unfortunately,
he had the brain of child. When he
was right he was as nearly unbeatable
as any pitcher I have ever SEEN"
There have been many legends about
Waddell, chief among them the notion
that he had habit of calling in his
outfielders, then striking out the side.
It is, however, a pleasant fiction de-
veloped solely from the fact that the
Rube did this stunt several times in
exhibition games, but never in actual
league competition.
I Schreck had the eccentric habit of
doing as much of his backstopping as
possible with his gloved hand only. This
worried Mack, who considered 1t care
less workmanship until Schreck finally
convinced his manager he could do q
better job one-handed than with two.
Once when Waddel1, In an exhibition
stunt, called in the infield as well as
outfield and struck out the side, Schreck
added to the novelty by catching every
pitch one-handed from a sitting posi-
ton.
ONE day, at st. Louis in 1908, Schreck
~ smashed thumb as the climax to
accidents putting all of Mack's
backstoppers on the casualty list.
IF you are worrying about who's
going to catch, quit it, Schreck told
Mack I'm going to do it. Put the
RUDE in, that's all I ask"
Schreck caught every pitch with his
gloved hand and threw out every St.
Louis runner who tried to steal despite
the bandaged thumb. And the
Athletics won.

Sectional Strength.
TN the coming championship at Nj


i sectional strength will be almost
evenly split The East will have
such stars as George Voigt, Ouimet,
Perkins, Findlay (Harvard), Romans,
Moffett and Guilford.
The Middle West will have Johnston
Goodman, Won Elm, Lehman, George
Dawson and Knepper. The Far West
will present Moe, Willing, Lawson
Little. Fay Coleman, Brown, McHugh,
Bon Stein and Seaver. The Southern
forces will be led again by Bobby Jones.
The strength of the Pacific Coast will
be especially notable. In this connec-
ton the Far West can claim half of
Won Elm, who divides much of his time
between Detroit and Los Angeles. Don
Moe will be one of the best men in the
field. Doc Willing Is always dangerous.
Lawson Little, the young golfer who
beat Goodman last Fall and carried
Ouimet to the final green, will bear a
lot of watching. He has more expert
ence now and can't be overlooked.
Charley Seaver is another long hitter
and low scorer from the other coast.
AS an average proposition the Far
West may take the lead in the way of
sectional strength. There are eight or
nine entries from this section who can
play a lot of golf, players who have
been improving steadily.
AS there will be only 80 to qualify,
the scramble here will be one of the
hardest ever known in a championship.
There are more good golfers now who
are able to break rs than the game
has ever known. Out of the field there
must be so or 60 headed for Merton
who ordinarily can count upon a IA
or rs, with possibilities of lower figures
But the strain of qualifying usually
tells another story.
