Sullivan Made No Appointments, Says Secretary Mulvey Not Chosen as Assistant Director of Exposition Sports. Says Ferris. NEW YORK, Aug. 23.—In reply to the open letter in San Francisco yesterday by President John Elliott, of the Pacific Association of the Amateur Athletic Union, expressing resentment because of the reported appointment of Thomas Mulvey as assistant director-general of amateur athletics at.the Panama-Pacific Exposition, announcement was made to night that Muivey was not given the post, but merely had been expected to confer with James E. Sullivan, director- general, in September relative to boxing | at the exposition. The letter of Mr. Elliott announced that inasmuch as Mulvey had no stand ing in amateur sport, since he is a tight promoter, the Pacific Association would not allow coast athletes to compete at the exposition if Mulvey was assistant director-general. The announcement here that the re port or Mulvey’s appointment was incor rect was made by Daniel J. Ferris sec retary to Director Sullivan. Mr. Sulli van is abroad. % • Would Trade Stars To Strengthen Team Miller Huggins Is Trying Desperate Means to Bolster Up Lowly Cardinals. ab. 4 4 New York. Maisel, 3b . . Cook, cf . . .

Vean Gregg Proves Himself Workman Nap Twirler Does Regular Job as Plasterer After Joking With Men. NEW YORK, Aug. 23.—Sometimes you can beat a fellow at his own game. They’re finishing up a skyscraper across from the Naps’ hotel here. Plasterers are the busy parties there now. Vean Gregg and a couple of Naps went over to see the . workers toil away recently. "What do you think of their work, Vean?” asked one of Gregg’s compan ions. "Oh, pretty fair," replied Gregg. One of the plasterers immediately became grouchy and said aloud, for the ball players’ benefit, "Lot of wii • guys looking on here. If you nskel one of these ball players to do a man’s work, he'd faint.” Gregg rose to the occasion. “Lend me your tools and that long coat for a minute,” he said. The plasterer grinned and complied with Gregg’s request, fh'nking it a good joke. After Gregg had done a? pretty a job of plastering as any **f them had ever seen, at a spot selected by the workers, they were willing to concede that Vean had slipped one over on them. "You can never tell what a man may be able to do by the clothes *ie wears,” said the surprised plasteri-r. as Vean surrendered his clothes and tools. KANSAS PLAYERS GRADUATE. GREAT BEND. KAN'S., Aug. 23.— Pitcher Riley and Shortstop Smith, of the local (Kansas State League) team, were sold to-day to the Wichita (West ern League) club.

LOUIS, Aug. 23.—Manager Miller Huggins, of the St. Louis Car dinals, is having troubles of his own attempting to build' his team up. It is said he stands ready to trade prac tically any member of ids staff if It will strengthen his forces. The Cardinals were long tail- enders. At the season’s start Hug gins was reported to have said that if he did not have a fir$t divPdon team by July 15 he’d quit. His play ers failed to gain the first division, and Huggins did not resign, so it !s to be presumed that he feels he can still make good as manager and boost his team up. Ed. Konetchy, Harry Sallee. Bob Harmon and even the recruits will be swapped if there is a, chance to strengthen the club. Negotiations have been opened with the Giants. Reds and other clubs, and if the Car dinals can get the long end of the deal anybody will go, barring Hug gins himself.

By Tiek Tichenor. I N amateur golf in this country as a general rule It is the young golfer who is in the limelight, while In England old John Ball and Harold H. Hilton still hold the cen ter of the stage In almost all of the Important events, as they have done for the past twenty years. If any investigation was made of the ages of the players who qualified last in tin* amateur championship In this country I firmly believe that 1* would develop the fact that 75 pif cent of them or 24 of the 32. who successfully weathered the qualifying day, were under 30 years of age, while ti?any of them were around the 20-; f ear mark. Fhick Evans, who is the pride of the West, even though he was beat en by young Allis In the Western championship, is hardly more thin 21 and there ai a host of others about the same age around Chicago, which is the golfing center of the West, who may not shine quite so brilliantly as Chick but who are able to put any golfer to his best to have them down at the finish. In the East. Jerome Travers, the present title-holder and the only man placed at scratch on the handicap list of the U. S. G. A., is hardly more than 25 or 26. Of course there la the grand old man. Walter J. Travis, who is always dangerous In any tournament, who is the exception to all rules as he did not take up the game until he was past 35 and yet has won two, or is it three, cham pionships. As a winner of tourna ments big and little, large and small —I believe that Travis would easily head the list in the number of prizes won during the year. In the South the young playeTs do not stand out in such numbers a? they do in the East and West. This is very probably due to the fact that In the beginning of the game in the South the idea was prevalent that It was an old man's game and It was so generally laughed at by those who had never tried it, that for a 1 ?ng time it did not seem attractive enougn to draw any of the youngsters away ft cm their other games. Within the last three or four years there has been a change In the idea entertained by the boys as to the game, and they are more and more taking It up and seeking to master Its Intricacies and overcome its difficul ties. There are at this time In the South quite a number of boys who have the foundation of a good game well started and who will In the course of two or three years give any player all he. wants to defeat them. It was only last May that Rollo Steinmehl, a 15-year-old boy, upset the dope of the Birmingham Invita tion tournament by winning it when he was practically unknou-n even to the members of his own club. A few weeks later he went to the Southern at Montgomery and made a credita ble showing during the early part of the week, but the constant grind of 36 holes a day wore him out toward the end and In his match with Hardy he was not able to play his game at all. Charlie Hardy, of New Orleans, is another youngster who made his de but at Birmihgham In this, his first tournament away from home, he had a bad case of stage fright and did not make much of a showing. This tournament, however, taught him a lot of things, and he made a fins showing at the Southern a few weeks later. He qualified well up in the championship flight and won his first match, but lost his second In a close match with Jack Edrington, who was going very well that day. This put him in the second flight, where he worked his way to the final. Here he nuft W. H. Rowan, w'ho was playing par golf on nearly every round, and he went down to defeat, though he made a brilliant effort in the after noon to regain the big lead Rowan secured in the morning. D. S. Weaver, of Memphis, had his ?on, Dudley, at Montgomery last June for his first experience In a tourna ment away from home. Before the tournament this youngster did some good work, but the qualifying round got *>n his nerves and he failed to qualify. Down at Savannah they have a youngster. Fred Howden by name, whom T saw play In a learn match last, winter, and who has all of the ear marks of the making of a good play er. For a youngster, he drives an exceptionally long ball with a good carry to It, which is absolutely neces sary to clear the old fortifications, which are us*d as hazards on nearly every tee shot at Savannah. Here in Atlanta there are three boys, who, if I do not miss my guess, are going to give anybody a lot of trouble to beat them In the course of two or three years. They are Perry Adair, Bob Jones and Frank Meador. All of these boys can get around the East Lake course In less than ninety, which Is better than a large majority of the older players can do. Perry and Frank have both been around in 84. while Bob reeled off an even 80 a couple of weeks ago. This Is a good score for any player in the club, but when a 12-year-old boy, who won’t weight over 75 pound*, causes a golf ball to travel around a course 6.400 yards in length in 80 stroke®, It is remarkable, in big let ters. In doing this round little Bob was out in 38 and back in 42, which is one stroke better than bogey on each side, while his total score was only five strokes over par. Give theoe boys a few years to obtain additional weight and strength and they will be making golf history in the South or I miss my guess. Love is the big fellow at the top. Dent is shown in the lower panel. • •» -pwoTos- * * VTW'V PAOTOGKLPRCP BLACKBURN IS RECALLED.

Greatest Pitcher Ever Seen on Diamond, Says Hans Wagner of Mathewson H ANS WAGNER, of Pittsburg, In speaking of Matty, says:, “Mathew son Is the greatest pitcher ever seen on the diamond. Rome may differ with me, but I have batted against him many times, and J nut when I thought I had him, he would shoot one over, and I went to the bench. He has as much speed now as he e/er had, but as he can win game* without using It, he does not resort to trying to knock the catcher down. I remember one game he worked against us last summer In which he did not use a curve ball. He had such excellent control that day that he used nothing bu.t a fast, straight one. You can say for me that I think Mathewson is just as good to-day as he ever was.” Four Lads Destined To Play In Majors Three Sterling Performers in New York State League; Another In Canadian. NEW YORK, Aug 23. — Four yohngsters who are destined for high places in baseball are playing In the New York State League and the Canadian League. Mike McNally at short, and Joe Leary, at fir*t, for Utica are the real sensations of the New York State League. Leary, it is said, will go to Cleveland In the fall and McNally to Detroit. The playing of McNally Is described *‘as the most marvelous in the history of the league.” The boy Is playing his first year In professional ball. Leary 1» not a big man, a* first basemen go. but he is playing the best first base the league has ever seen. "Pinners” Quinlan, left fielder of the Scranton team, seems a big league sure shot In 1914. He ha* played professional ball two year* vs 1th his home team, and a losing team. In any other place, Quinlan would hit better than .280. his pres ent average. He has been looked over by scouts, and Bobby Lowe, of De troit. is impressed with him. Bill Donahue, winning pitcher of the Hamilton, Ont.. club, is the best pitcher in the Canadian League. Thi.-« is his first year as a professional. He is a right-hander and a big fellow, only twenty, and noted for his splen did control and speed. ‘THE OLD RELIABLE” -- " REM EDYrpRMEN AT DRUGS!STB.ORTRtAL BOX BY MAIL60c FROM PLANTEN 93 HENRY ST.
