CONNIE MACK BONED FOUR TIMES IN A
ROW AND THE WONDERFUL BRAVES
TOOK ADVANTAGE OF CHANCES
New York.—Connie Mack went Into
the IRI4 world'* eertes with fandom
hailing him as the craftiest, brainiest
man In baseball lie emerged with
the fans wondering If the halls wore
tost if ted, for Connie, In the four bat
tles against the ftraveM, made four
bones that hurt Ills team's chances—
probably killed the chance*.
In the opinion of the fans who saw
tho third game. In lloaton, Connie's
worst l>on«v was made In the tenth in
ning of that game when he permitted
Jo# Hush to remain tn the bo* after
the Athletto* In their half of that tu
ning had broken the deadlock by acor
tng two runs
Connie certainly most have known
that the crowd would get after Hueh
aa no crowd ever got after a pitcher.
And the crowd did get after the Ath
letic pitcher. More than thirty-four
thousand fans hooted and yelled and
howled In chorus at Hush as he took
his place In the ho*—and they kept it
up throughout the inning The band
tu the left field bleachers opened up
with most horrible discords ever heard
anywhere
That Awful Bedlam.
The bedlam was of a kind that beg
gar* real description. It was tremen
dous. horrible, nerve-wrecking, even
for tbe spectators themselves What
must It have been for poor Bush, the
target of It all; the boy who was en
trusted with the burden of thwarting
nine determined baseball warrtors and
38,000 fanatics.
ltuah tried to Ignore the hoots and
howls. Hush, steady and sure up to
that moment, crumbled and tha
Brave* tied the score and eventually
won a game that seemed hopelessly
lost when they went to bat in the
tenth.
Had Connie Mack taken out Bush
and put In Chief ltender the chance*
are 10 to t that tbe Indian would
have held the Hrsvea tu check and
saved the game for the Athletic*
Times without number tn bis big
league career Bender ha* lived
through situations similar to that
| which Hush faced In the last half of
ithe tenth, and Render, obi In pitching
; experience, old In standing up under
|the most terrific bombardment of hoa-
Itlle fans would have faced the enemy's
fire and withstood It.
Solid "Ivory."
Connie probably figured that the
! Hraves couldn't tie up th* score—
, figured that Hush would stand up un
det the strain. And In figuring so
Connie made a hone that cost ht*
team a game and made’the count S
to 0 against them. Instead of S to t. a*
It should have been.
Those who saw the four games can
not understand why Connie sent his
men to the plate with order* to "kill
the ball." These older* more than
anything else **nt the Mackinrn to
their world* series death Instead of
waiting out the Boston pitcher* they
swung at nearly everything that was
offered. Result Instead of getting
free walk* to first or s chance to hit
it,- good ones, they fanned or got
themselves Into holes from which
they couldn't emerge
With the count 3 to 0 against him
Connie sent Shawkey to the bo* in the
final game— Shawkey. who never be
fore bad pitched In a world scile*
battle He staked the Athletics'
chalices on a Kid - and the Kid loat.
A Toiist-md! Ids Esulfen&is!
Why didn't Connie use Bender in
that final game? Bender was the
logicnl selection. He was ready and
he was wild for another chance at the
Bruves True, the Braves hammered
him out of the hox in the opening
game, but the chances of their repeat
ing were remote.
Another "Billiard Ball."
Another prize bone of Connie’s was
to leave Behans behind the hat.
Sohangs work at bat and In the field
was miserable. His throwing was off
color from the start The slow footed
Braves stole eight bases on him and
Schang caught only one man pilfer
ing, Schang made only two hits dur
ing the four guinea, when a hit meant
much for the Athletics' chances, he
fanned/ Jack I-&pp la one of the best
catchers In the game. And he'a a
hitter Lapp, blindfolded, couldn't
have done much worse than Schang
The Braves beat the Athletics be
cause (hey ontduaaed them in every
way They won because they played
against the greatest world series
baseball ever seen. But (hey ought
to thank Connie Mack, and his blun
ders. for the fact that they won with
euch speed But for Connie's bone
in the tenth Inning the eeriee would
have gone to five games at least.
Were It not for his other bones the
series might have been longer.
But Connie hlundered. Connie boned
four time* in a row and the wonder
ful Braves took advantage of each of
them and dashed on to victory in rec
ord lime.
THE THEORY OF MR.
CON. MAC. EXPLODED
Then' » in n until In our town
And he w»* wondrous wtw,
He went to see the Athletics play,
And even he was much surprised.
They raced around the diamond with
The speed of lightning flash;
They fielded fine and slammed the pill
With all their old-time dash
As this was the only time our man
Had seen the Mackmen play.
It thrilled him with the vreatest pride
As they put the Yanks aw at
"No hunch on earth can heat that team
That represents Quaker Town,"
Our hero said. In a sonorous voice.
When the home hoys fathered round,
"Just bet your all and then some more
That the l*hll> team can't lose
Wiiger homestead, wife and girls and
hoys
To gst hets use any ruse"
So the home crowd followed hla advice,
Itet their all on the baseball lames.
And now In winter, they're without
any coats
Ami umtavllaieoa when !( rains.
The name of this man I will not live.
Kill will take at.other tack.
And will live you a pointer and you
may guess
It sounds like Outline Mack.

The swine exhibit of R. L. McKie &

pronounced one of the best at the 1914

In viewing the many beautiful animals
to be seen in the live stock building,
to admire the fine specimen of swine
entered by Dr. McKie. The breed is

were entered on Monday, thus making
an unusually fine showing. No finer

tract attention anywhere—at any live
stock exhibit—is one of Mr. Crawford's
brag milch cows. She is the great
granddaughter of champion Flying
Fox, out of a noted St. Lambert's cow.
She has many dams in her pedigree
testing more than 20 pounds of butter
in a single week, while one testing as
high as 26 pounds and 5 ounces.
Next in order might be mentioned
“Maggie's Eminent Boy,” No. 109910,
a grandson of the famous SIO,OOO bull,
Eminent 11. There are others in tha
herd that are perfect specimens of fine
breeding—cows, heifers and calves.
Mr. Crawford is also showing his
pride three-year-old stallion, grandson
of the famous futurity winning sire,
Moko, out of a producing daughter of
Wilkes Boy. This stallion is black
and Is a coit of lots of substance, fin
ish and style and will be hard to beat
in any company. He was greatly ad
mired by the crowd who saw him,
each visitor bestowing only the high
est praise on him. Among the horses
is a yearling, granddaughter of the
same sire and out of a producing
daughter of “Prodigal,” whose pedi
gree traces back into her fifth gene
ration to the sire of “Maude S” and
“Jay-Eye-See." These two individu
als are fully up to their magnificent
breeding, and are the cynosure of all
eyes upon entering the live stock build
ings, Another entry that Mr. Crawford
is not at all ashamed of when it comes
to good looks and that is a 5-year-old
Jack, color, black with white points.
He measures nearly sixteen hands high
and is receiving many compliments
from those who know something about
animals in his class. With him are
two of his gets that are beauties, arid
a 14^4-hand high four-year-old jennett.
She also is black with marking of
white points.
Mr. Crawford has always taken a de
light in live stock raising, and he gives
this branch of his business his person
al attention, seeing to it that nothing
but the best bred animals are ever al
lowed on his farm, and the result is
that his entries are always regarded
as the best at fairs or horse and cattle
shows.
Mr. Crawford's postoffice address is
Greensboro, Ga.; shipping point,
Thurston, Ga.
