A Backward Glance.

IT is impossible for even the middle
aged followers of the game to take
in the full sweep of Comics remarka-
Bile service record. But for an ap-
Proclamation of it. let them look back
to the era Of Rube Waddell, Ossie
Schreck, Lave Cross, Eddie Plank and
Danny Murphy and the other heroes
OF the era just after the turn of the
century, when ball players had COL
lars on their shirts and wore those
funny round caps
Seems a long while ago. doesn't it?
And the heroes of that era are just
misty figures against retreating
horizon, eh? Well. when they were
young and in their prime Connie
already was a veteran He had put
away his catcher's mitt and was sit
ting in the dugout. They looked up
to him and respected him, and, be-
cause all the experiences that were
new to them were old TO him, they
accepted his judgment without ques-
ton. Proba bly,, behind his back, they
called him the old man.
All OF them long since left the sport
ing scene. Many Of them are dead
After them came Jack Coombs and
Chief Bender and Eddie Collins and
Jack Barry and Stuffy McInnis. Then
Lefty Grove and Rube Walberg and
Mickey Cochrane and Jimmy Foxx.
Now even Grove and Walberg and
Cochrane and Foxx are veterans
and Connie still runs the ball club
and tells the young fellows what to
do. Waves Of ball players have come
to him and been developed by him
and passed on. Managers with whom
he matched wits are gone with the
wind.

Of Babe Ruth from an Industrial

Of James J. Braddock-the defeat Of
Joe Louis by Max Schmeling-the
winning OF a Kentucky Derby by Bold
Venture. 25-to-1 shot, ridden by
Hanford, an apprentice jockey-the
amazing career OF Jerome Hanna
Dean-these are some Of the story
book tales that have come true on
the field of sport. And quite as un-
believable as any OF these Is the story
OF Connie Mack.
Active in base ball for more than
half century, Connie turned "a re-
cently-and even more recently he
took upon himself, in addition to
his other duties. those OF president
Of the Philadelphia club. 1t Is obvious
that. to say the least, Connie is
far from the pipe and slipper stage.
A half century Of playing and manag-
ing apparently has done no more than
to whet his appetite for the half
century that lies just ahead of him.
Certainly none of the younger men
in base ball has shown any more
initiative or any more vigor.
