afloat along tlie Pacific coast several
of the sporting me of that section of

An International sporting club is to

proximately JIM, 000 has been guaran

Many California turfmen, are Inter

About the middle of February. But it
will take at least two months to com

and for this reason the El Tasoans who

easy stages, would consume about 20

Cubs Not For Sale.
Incidentally the Cubs are no longer

Johnny Papke and Larry Strou have
been matched for a 10 round bout to be
fought at Fort Bliss. Dec. 10. Papke had

been anxious for a return match. The
two featherweights are popular with

He was married at Crown Point, Ind. to

writers poured hot shot into one an

and the difference of opinion finally
culminated during the actual running
of the race when that brilliant chance
taker, John W. Gates, offered to bet
E. R. Thomas, owner of Herrais $100,000
as the horses were swinging into the
stretch that McChesney would win
but was not taken.
To the westerner the idea of Hermls
taking the measure of McChesney was
always a Joke. The two had met sev
eral times at Chicago tracks and while
the former was always held around the
even money mark the latter was con
sidered no better 'than 100 to 1 shot
True, Hermls Improved wonderfully as a
three-year-old, butwhen they finally met
as four-year-olds the western contin

was still the better horse, as he
eventually with 123 pounds up and Fa

Two Cars at
Piice of One
Two things are resionslble for the
ready, steady sales1 of Hupmoblles
at this season.
One. according to the Lone Star
Motor Co.. which represents the
Hupmobile In this territory, is the
increased size, and flve-passonger
room of the new model.
The othergfs the detachable sedan
top for they touring car, .and a
similar cdupo toj? for the roadster.
The Lone Star Motor Co. says thip
gives every Hup buyer the chance
of gettipg two cars at very little
more than the price of one. '
The prospect of driving all winter
in cozy comfort Is most alluring to
the majority of buyers; and the
new tops are receiving hearty
approval.
The new tops are very reasonable
in price: easily attached: look bet
ter by far than any other of the
sort we have ever seen: are well
built and beautifully finished in

America's classic race for the two-year-
old, wnuo xne numus vs. x-rocior itnou,
Morello, and Requital will be remem
bered as the names of western owned
horses, of recent years Savable, carry
ing 119 pounds and ridden by Lyne, was
the only representative to win the rich
prize for the western owner John A.
Drake. In other events the west
fared better. Four times in all the
Twin City fell to western owners. The
first time to McChesney, the next In
1907 to Barney Schreiber's Nealon who.
ridden by "Wild Bill" KnapD carried
122 pounds, in 190S to Fred Forsyth's
122 pounds, in 190S to Fred Forsyth's

Olambala with 114 and Butwell in the
saddle.
Capt S. S. Brown always cut a figure
at the Bay. His Agile captures the
Sapphire Stakes at five and one half
furlongs In 1904 with 118 up and Tommy
Burn3,in the saddle, and th6 Waldorf
stakes In' the same year with the same
weight and rider. As a three-year old
in 1905 this colt'won the Advance stakes
at one and three-eighths miles with
HI poupdsand Jack Martin In the pilot
house.' 'The Annual Champion of 1906
at two and ofle quarter miles was taken
by Accountant ana ine Tiaal or tne
same year after the captain had died,
but his horses were being run in the
name of his brother. W. H. Brown, but
still being trained by the same man, the
saturnine, sphinx-like Bob Tucker.
Previous to Nealon's victory In the
Twin City, the Schreiber horse had won
the Dophln Stakes In 1906 at one and
one-eighth miles with W.Duggan up and
the September stakes at one and 5-16
miles in the same year with E. Duggan
in the saddle. To The Picket fell the
honor of .Winning this last event for the
west for' the first time when he ac
complished the feat in 1903 carrying
126 pounds and Frankle O'Neill in the
saddle. ,
Lady Navarreforeshadowed what she
would do ih her three year old form
In 1906, namely the unprecedented fea
of winning both the Tennessee Derby
and Oakes, by annexing the Sapphire
stakes for Charley Ellison In 1905 car

Bthon, In his two-year-old form ac
counted the real western rival of Jack
Atkins, capture the Spring Stakes at
five furlongs for George C. Bennett In
1906 while W. Yanke's Round the World
took it in 1910 as she also did the
Zephyr Stakes each time carrying 117
pounds and both times ridden by
Keough.
Since Imp's great victory in 1899 the
Suburban at one and one quarter miles
has been captured but twice by the
westerners, in 1907, when Nealon took
it and In 1910 when Olambala won
Fred Cook had his full measure of suc
cess at the Bay, for his Lawrence t.
Daley took the Dash Stakes in 1307
and followed this up by taking the
Autumn Maiden stakes. To Cook also
belonged George C. Bennett who cap
tured the first part of the Double
Event in 1905 and Blake who won the

PHOENIX CLAIMS STATE
HIGH SCHOOL CHAMPIONSHIP
Phoenix, Ariz., Nov. 24 The high
school championship of the state is now
claimed by the Phoenix high school foot
ball teatn. Five high school teams
have gong down to defeat before the
husky "Coyotes." Saturday they went
to Prescott and walked over the
"Hodags" by a score of 33 to 0.
Thursday the Coyotes will play the
Phoenix Indian school team for the
absolute championship of the state in
all classes below the unlversltj-.
Though the Indians are a little heavier
than tho high school boys, local foot
ball fans believe that the palefaces
stand better than an even chance to
win.

Ni
Eff YORK, Nov. 24. Those base
ball moguls who are shrieking
about the high-cost of baseball-
ingrf-ould swat thejiforementloned high
cost a. lusty ..swat by using the paring
knife on their rosters.
It seems ta ,bV fashic-nable, but en
tirely unnecessary for major league
clubs to carry from 25 to 30 men on
their pay roll all year long. Those
same clubs could get along Just as
nicely by carrying 20 players and no
more. Such a plan would annually
save each club about J 25,000 In salaries
and about S5000 In. graveling expenses."
It seems like extravagance and folly
for a baseball club to carry more thair
20 players at the very most. The men
who own the clubs seem to think
otherwise just;, now, but some of these
days when a strict retrnchment policy
mu3t be enforced they will whittlo
their lists down to 20 men and discover
that those players they discarded aro
not missed except on pay days.
Where Poring Wonld Help.
The average major league club now
carries about 10 pitchers, four catchers,
sl outfielders, six lnfielders one or
two general utility men,! amanager, an
assistant manager or (coach) and about
two trainers.
A major league ball club could oper
ate successfully with six pitchers,
three catchers, four outfielders, five
lnfielders,1 one general utility ' man,
one manager and one tra&ier. That
would make a total of 21 men Includ
ing the manager and a trainer, '
Braves Are Good Example
The Boston Braves are a fiie ex
ample of how much can be accom
plished with few men. The Braves, it
Is true, carried as many men on their
roster last year as any other team,
but the Braves used fewer men after
Stallings had decided upon his com
bination than any other team.
. Stalllngs, over a stretch of more
than two months, used two catchers
five lnfielders and five outfielders. In
the box he used only three pitchers un
til the double header season came along
and even then he could have got
along very nicely with six pitchers.
The Athletics are another sample of
how much can be accomplished with
few players. Tire Athletics carried
about 26 players' durlnr- the year, yet
Connie Mack could have accomplished
the same thing with 16 men, for the
Seven Inning Games p Are Held Illegal
-:.:- -::- -:.,:-. -:,.:- -:l':-Dallas
Will Have Fine New Ball Park
AN ANTONIO,
Sas the smoke from the pipe of
peace of the Texas league moguls
vanished into thin air comes an echo
from Omaha which ought to forever
set at rest the question of the legality
of seven inning games, the plaj-lng of
which during the championship season
caused such a hubub in the pennant
controversy between the Houston and
Waco clubs. A letter from league
headquarters to the local boss is to
the effect that adbrevlated games cut
short through any agency than the ele
ments of nature meaning rain are
illegal under baseball law and should
not be counted as championship con
tests. Such is the ruling af base
ball's supreme court, and in this .presi
dent Davidson is sustained in his ac
tion in throwing out of the records all
seven inning games played during the
past season.
It was by the throwing out of these
games that honors In the pennant race
were even between the Navigators and
and Guffs, whereas had they been
counted Houston would have been
J awarded the flag. Now that the law

other nine men did little else man
warm the bench during the entire season-Using
the Extra Men.
"What would happen to a club car
rying only 20 men if It hit a stretch
of hard luck that laid up some of its
regulars?" is the natural question.
The answer . is simple "fill their
places with the extra men."
If the first baseman and second base
man were laid up at the same time
the utility man could play second and
the catcher could play first. If two
outfielder, two lnfielders, a catcher and
a pitcher, were rendered hors de base
ban at the same time a club- carrying
only 20 ntfen wouldn't be so badly crip
pled as It would seem upon first
thought. .. ...
The club still would have five pitch
ers. Stalllngs needed only three to
win the pennant for him. The club
would have two catchers'. Thats ail
Ccnnle Mack and Stalllngs needed.
With two of the four outfielders In
jured there would be two left If the
utility player could free the other gar-
The club carylng five lnfielders
would have three left if two were in
jured. The extra catcher could be
ni. n., fi.ot anX thp three other In-
fielders could fill the second and third
and. shortstoppfng jods.
Interchanging Jobs ,
Some criticism, 1 no doubt, will be
made concerning the suggestion of
playing the catcher at first, or playing
him In the outrield if necessary. T.ie
catcher, some may say, may be a good
catcher but poor in any other posi-
If-a club operated with 20 rhen only,
it could teach each man on the team to
become a general utility man. In the
old days pitchers used to play In the
outfield or Infield on days when they
weren't on (he mound. Why not now?
High Efficiency 3Ialntolned.
If records count for anything, the
pitchers who used to work every day
on the old days either in the box or
in. the field, lost none pf their pitching
prowess because of constant work.
And the human race was no hardier
In those days of Al. Spalding. Johnson,
Ward, Jim Whitney, Charley Rad

What the fans now want to know
is what. Is in store for them in 1915
With but little more than a month of
the present j-ear left the baseball
horizon is brightening up. Everywhere
hopes are entertained for the best
season In years, and thre Is a reason
for this.
Cutting Salary Limit.
When the magnates at Omaha de
cided to reduce the salary limit, to
$2000 they took the first step to place
the national game on a safe and sar.e
bnsls. They have come to realize that
baseball must be made attractive "as
an Investment for a man to put his
monej- into u It stands within rea
son that the game would be short
lived with a continuation of condi
tions as last season. The trouble In
the past has been that the game has
become too progressive It has kept up
with the times and even exceeded the
pace Recruits were added to the
already large army of baseball bugs
with amazing rapiditv The atten
dance figures increased and the ball
parks had to be enlarged to accom
modate the crowds New leagues were
organized and rival bodies came Into
the field. The people became in
toxicated with prosperity and salaries
were boosted.
Reaction Is Setting In.
The reaction is now setting in. The
magnates have become aroused to
'sober thought by the dwindling of their
cash pile. They have been playing
the game too strong, and they are
feeling It In their pocket books. Now
if baseball Is to continue the man be
hind the money bag must be given a
fair shot. He must be shown that he
1 n nHan,., ttr hi Investment ana
fh- Tnss-nAtes: are now headed that-
way.
Dnnn To 3Ianagc Dallas.
In the way of preparations for next
season Joe Gardner of Dallas is not
in inn in n manner to command
admiration. Besides building a ball
park which Is to be second to none in
the league, he has also landed a pos
sible manager for the coming yea,r
Rumor has it that he has practically
closed with Joe Dunn for the job on
the recommendation of manager Smith
of the Atlanta soumern league emu.
At this end, Morris Block, who Is still
in the role of Broncho boss, is in
dally correspondence with possible
Nags for 1916 and has enough under
cover to start off a team.' He has
also a manager in view, but Is keeping
his own counsel in the matter.
Baseball Colony Increases.
The local winter baseball colony Is
gradually Increasing The latest ad
dition Is umpire McCafferty, who was
in the Western league last season. He
was a. former pitcher, having been with
Fort Werth and other teams in this
league. Coming from the Western
leagne he was asked about Louie Bar
bour, a local lad. who played third
base for Denver. Barbour does not
expect to come home for the winter.
T don't think the Denver plajers
had much use for me last season," he
said. "1 chased six of the plajers off
the field In a game one afternoon and
that soured them on me. But Louie
