I TTfF ATi,A\TA CKOKHTAN AM) NKWS. 10 TC 10 FIGHT IN inmnTcrm [S Rv Allen Sangree. N EW'YORK. Sppt. 2.—"This will ' be the hardest fought world’s series that the country has ever seen,” observed the long-legged, silent Cornelius MacGilllcuddy, the other night at the hotel where his club puts up In New York. Mack Is as talkative ns a crutch. The only way Friend Writer could get him started was by remarking that the Giants will cop this 1913 pennant through superior pitching. “I have some young pitchers who will give the Giants a tussle,” broke open the silent Irishman, 'and they are Brown, Shawkey, Houck and Bush. Now, mind you, I am going to have In this world’s series two old- timers. Plank and the Indian, Bender These veterans took part in the first battle that I had with McGraw, aleo the second, and they are going to he features In this series, providing Mc Graw and I win out in our respective leagues.” “I realize that McGrow’s club is stronger than it was in 1911.” con tinued the Philadelphia strategist, "and I can see that my men have a battle ahead of them Depends on “Break of Luck.” “No, I won’t say that the Athletics will outhlt New York. I suppose a good deal will depend upon the break of luck. Now, I want to tell you about the first time my club bumped up against New York. You can draw your own conclusions. No manager Is going to knock an opposing club in a world’s series, nor Is he going to alibi. But here were the facts in 1905; “I had Topsy Hartsel, Lord and ’Socks’ Seyboki in the outfield and the Cross brothers, Danny Murphy and Harry I>avua in the infield. I will say that all those boys were worn out when we tackled the Giants. Why, Just imagine, we won the cham pionship of the American league on y one day before the soawn closed. "Of course, I figured on pitching Rube Waddell in the game and that erratic southpaw threw me down. The ball players were all bustng up one another’s straw hats. Rube, who could outbcx anybody on the club, broke half a dozen hats and then a certain member of the club soaked Rube with h uniform bag. It injured the southpaw’s arm. That is the truth, so far as Waddell’s failure to appear in the 1905 series is concerned. 'Mathewnon shut us out throe games in that herles and McGinnity did it once. Render also shut out the Giants, and 1 don’t mind predicting that he Is Just as good now at* he was then. Plank's games were 1-0 and 3-0. I had great pitching in that 1905 series, but Waddell’s absence handi capped me. Outplayed Giants in 1911. •Well, you want to hear something about the contest in 1911? Say, 1 don’t see what the American public cares to know about the inside •‘■'tuff on that. We outplayed the Giants in every department. “The experts thought my club would fall down in the catching end. Say, Thomas and Lapp both caught excellent ball, and I have a youngster now, this Schang. who will deliver the goods, no worry. “No, neither Danny Murphy nor Harry Davis will get into this corn ing series, but they will be there with some timely advice. My club fought the Giants in u disabled con dition in their flrwt battles. They were right in 1911, and, although it is doubtful whether Coombs can come back, 1 will have a well-conditioned club to fight this yeai “McGraw's club looks so much bet ter than it did in 1911. that if I were a betting man 1 would say that it if an even wager between these two clubs, always supposing that each cops the pennant.” ENTRIES Any Way You Look at It, Mutt Shows Rare Judgment at Times n f) By “Bud” Fisher —■—— * Bill Smith, Joe Agler and Other Experts Will Cover Big Series for Georgian To-day the Crackers battle the Gulls at Poncy Park.

And it was with two gone in the last of the ninth, the bases full, and the f«core a tie that Friend Peddy of the Pels touched off a roaring crowd of ten thousand persons with the Pinch Hit that gave the Crackers the game, and the right to win the 1913 pennant—if they could lick the Gulls four games in a row. Mr. Peddy was the pinch hitter, as remarked above. Mr. Wally Smith was the pinch hlttee. And the Pinch Hit landed on the hittee a few de grees below where he would have buttoned his mispenders, if he had been \v earing suspenders. Ordinarily, that kind of a Pinch Hit does not arouse any violent enthu siasm. But at this particular Junc ture a home run over the whisky sign wouldn’t have caused any more of an explosion—and wouldn't have won the game a bit more effectually. Wherefore, if Mr. Smith finds him self more comfortable standing, Mr. Smith has the balm of heroism to apply to his personal feelings. And as to his anatomy—well, that prob ably will recover, all by Itself. • • • T HE morning game having gone the way of all good ball games - i. e., to the home team—and Mobile having duly lost, ten thousand fans shoe-horned themselves into Ponca DeLeon Park for the matinee encoun ter.

But right there something hap pened.

T HE motordrome track record for two miles was broken twice last night by the terrific rid ing of “Tex’’ Richards and Morty Graves, who circled the saucer at the fearful clip of 88 miles an hour. "Tex” was the first to smash the mark, when he won the final heat of the Southern championship race in 1:23. Then a few minutes later, Graves, riding the second heat of the special match race with Richards, spun off the eight laps in If22. Both races were wildly received by the big crowd that marked the Labor Day attendance, and, in fact, all the races were excellent and marked by fast time and hard rid ing. Renel, the French rider, scored 22 points in the Labor Day sweepstakes and was awarded the race, the scor ing being under the French system. Richards won the Australian pursuit race, which was an exciting affair. Following is a summary of the events: Southern Championship. HEATS 1 MILE, FINAL 2 MILES.

Cross w-ent Into the ring for the twelve-round bout expecting to have an easy time of it. Barrieau showed un expected form and during the early rounds literally swept the New Yorker off his feet. Cross came back when Bar rieau had grown a bit tired, and did some fighting that earned him a draw, although the newspapers thought the decision should have gone to Barrieau.

P AUL HUNTER, as every one knows, gladdened the hearts ol his friends by winning the Lake Geneva tournament and many of the adjuncts thereto. We were not pleased because he defeated some of our othei friends, but because he plays such de serving golf and has had *o much undesierved bad luck. It seemed high time that such good playing should meet its just deserts. Paul Hunter comes of a strona golfing family. His mother la much interested in his game. His father, C L. Hunter, is a very good player him self, and his cousdn, Robert Hunter is a player of the highest class, who unfortunately, has not been seen or local links this year. It appears thai a certain facility in golf playing rum Jfi families, most notable examples, ir addition to the Hunters, being tht Gardners and the Edwards. Paul, who is almost exactly my age has played golf since his earliest childhood, and for years has been con sidered one of our very best players Long before I began to play In public I saw pictures of Paul Hunter, a vert small lad, with a golf club in his hand in newspapers and golf magazines He did marvelous things in those day. and is still doing them. He plays ir perfect form, a fine, free, wide open easy style, and commands one of th longest iron shots I ever saw played He is a strong, big fellow as golfer 1 go. and gets his strength into the bal to the fullest advantage.
