MANY MEN TOR BACK FIELD
NOW that President Pulltam has
finally derided that disputed game,
between New York anil Chicago
tie. It la uaeleea to dilate on the
mvnii ana aemerua 01 ui mri
set, except to ajr 1n passing that young
Mr. Alarkla probably learned a lesson from
hla etupldtty and decided that next time
ha la on flrat base and a man la on third
whan tha beJI la bU to the field the thing
for him to do la to run for aecond and not
for tha club house. But here l a point
In that disgraceful episode at New York
which ahould net be overlooked in the ex
citement of tha moment of spasmodic trib
ute to Pulllam or O'Day for refusing to
give the came to the Olanta. The umpire,
Hank O'Day, inatead of allowing: the game
to end In a row and a tle ahould have
cleared the field and ordered another In
ning; played there, and then. That would
hava disposed of all further controversy.
And why didn't Hank O'Day puraue that
couree? la Hank O'Day a coward7 Is he
unfair Neither. Hank O'Day Is one of the
nerviest men hat aver worked an Indi
cator and ho la also one of the squarest.
Nobody doubts that. And this brings us
up to the kerne) of the question. It would
hava been flying; In the face of mortal dls
aater for any umpire at that time to have
attempted auch a filing" aa forcing; the
Giants to fA.y another Inning;. The mob
had a urged down upon tha field and, led
by the McOraw rlotera In uniform, this
mob would have ruined O'Day had ho
sought to do what he knew ahould have
been done. It waa not cowardice on the
umpire' part, but It would have been
foolhardineaa on hla part had he pursued
a different course. The fact Is almply this:
In New York neither umpire nor vlrttlng
team haa police protection. That means
that there is no baso ball law In Gotham
and that the home team and Its cohorts of
outlaws In tha grandstands and bleachers
re at liberty to steal games they cannot
win and do with the umpire what they see
fit any time ha attempts to prevent a
case of grand larceny. New York haa be
come a law unto Ueelf. n& who Is to
blame? Muggsy McGraw, Brush and
Freedman would be Just oa tame as any
body else If the. magnatea of the National
leaicue would simply stand up for their
Individual and collective rights, put the
damper on this combine of outlawry and
bulldoitng and make New York subject to
precisely the same law that applies to and
governe other Individuals and cluba of the
league. Unless thla la done and done
speedily the National league la going to
suffer. The old league cannot quite af
ford to Invite any matching of swords
with lla robust young rival Just now.
There are more waya than one . by which
the American league could derive advantage
from n. break In the National. But over
and above the intercata of the National
league or any other league are the lntereste
of the game, tha Interests of base ball aa
a great -American Inetltutlou Into which the
public pays annually the mm of $17.000,(KK).
Those Intereata ahould not, but they are,
being subordinated Just now In n blind
cowardice to those of one club, one city
and a handful of unscrupulous persona,
Sunnoee such a direful tfate ahould come
unon the American nation as that It would
ba deorived of New York's membership
and aupport of the National league? Tho
Lnlted States has survived other calami
ties Look at the civil war. But there Is
no need of this. It the owners and man
agers of other National leuguo teams unite
in a solemn determination to subject New
York, the most provincial town on the
man, to the came law that governs other
clubs and tho matter will bo settled.

Crelsnton, Bellevue and high school foot
ball teame are going through a better
course of training this year than they have
for some time, and each tinm ought to be
able to get away with the majority of its
schedule. Crelgliton's acquisition ot two
expert coaches and several new players
should give that team a vantage ground
In the west which it has not held for some
seasons. It haa some hard games ahead,
but as the eeueon progressea and tho men
become more familiar with each other and
the tnlnutla of the system they are fol
lowing, their strength should steadily In
crease. It Is to be hoped the university
boya can hand It back to St. Louis this
year. Bellevue won the state championship
last year and aspires to the same distinc
tion thla fall. The chances of the high
school outstripping its 1907 record look
. like a foregone conclusion.
Diet park will ba fitted up for the Corn-huskets-Ames
game ao that foot ball fans
will be comfortably cared for. Omaha
hopes and believes this gams will estab
lish an annual function for thla city; that
each fall the metropolla will have the
pleasure of at least one big game on the
University of Nebraska schedule. It seems
scarcely necessary to suggest that one
good, way to bring about this desired end
Is for Omaha fan to turn out to the ra
pacity of the park this fall. I.et'a make
the University of Nebraska feel that it
cannot afford not to glva Omaha a game.
That la the best way to gee at this mat
ter. The business men of Omaha have
assured Manager Eager of their anxiety to
lend him whatever assistance they can.
This Is a substantial atep In the right di
rection. ' v
Doea tha fact that Manager Billy Fox
ha been re-engaged by Owner Green sig
nify that soma of those recalcitrants will
not be on the Uncoln team next year? It
was gratifying, anyway, to find that Mr.
Green was able to check up properly on
the friction that existed between Fox and
certain player and greatly weakened Lin
coln this eaaon.
Out here In thla western country, whet
the wind blow free and the square deal
reign, there 1 a persistent feeling thut
New York would have a tough time win
ning the world's aeries with Mathewson,
Bresnahan, Tenney and Donlln, no mat
ter which American league team wins.
Suppose tha Giant win the National
league pennant and the Box the American
league. Can anybody Imagine what would
' happen to M. McOraw et al. put In that
packing house district for attempting any
Merkle acts?
George echoenleln ("Amerlcua ", the Bal
timore wrestler who threw Fred Berll
want to ba world' champion and thinks
he can get It away from Gotch. Tha Idea!
Wonder what became of that Bostoniun
who wrote a whole side of a newspaper to
prove that base ball waa stupid and un
popular?
It's about 1 1ms to begin aaylng, "Yes. but
wait till next season." That's the deuce
of it; w hava to wait.
Keally, tha outlook for base ball In 190
look bright. Hal Chase still Insists he
will remain with tha outlaws.
Anyhow. Ih fan has had hla moaey's
worth this season.
KerUle" Moll in Poor (oadlllnn-
ptl Itodaere Does Boot
W nrk Mlrhni Oat of
name.
M.WilSu.V. Wl.., Oct. 2.-' Special.) Out
of what appeared at fint to be dismal
prripects it now appears as If the Wiscon
sin varsity team would be as strong as
last year's aggregation. The coaches are
making no predictions, but from the tone
of certainly which pervadea tho foot tall
room in the gymnasium It seems aa though
thry ore more than satisfied with the
chances so far.
The things that were bothering Conch
Barry were, first, the condition hanging
over four of tho old stars, and1, second, the
absence of material for the line. During
the last week, however, the feeling that
the men would be able to pasa their exami
nations tomorrow has grown and tha men
themselves hnva appeared confident of be
ing able to work off the bans. Soma heavy
line material alxuit which nothing was
known has also appeared on the field and
It looks as thotigh the line would be fairly
heavy after all.
There Is now a wealth of material for
tho ba'k Held and, according to tho conches,
there will be two sets of backs for tha hlg
games this year. Harry haa been woiklng
two set every day. with Bunker, Muclclo
ston. Culver and Cunningham working on
one, and Richardn. Wllce, Dean and Mull
n the other. Harry has been working
some of tha men in both the lino and the
back fieht, playing Wltca at center part
of the time and then bringing him bark
to tha fullback position. The same is done
In the case of Osthoff. the big fellow who
caused such a flurry last season while he
was In condition. Osthoff was played in
the back field altogether last season, but
I arry thinks that he will be a very val
uable man to have cither In the back field
or line this year.
.Moll In Poor Condition. ,
One thing that Is worrying both the fol
lowers of the team and the players them
selves Is the slowness with which "Keckle"
Moll Is getting into condition. Moll was
111 most of the Rummer with rheumatism
and he has not yet fully recovered. It has
raised particular havoc with the little fel
low's kicking. He has attempted puting,
but stems unable to gt the ball away with
hla former speed, nor does he get the dis
tance Into hi kicks. He has not tried drop
kicking at all this year and It will be prob
ably two weeka before he will be worked
at all. In the meantime, Captain Rogers
la attending to tho puting department of
the team. Rogers has been In good form
this season and has averaged about forty
yards consistently all week. 1
In the line there are a number of men
above 175 pounds In weight. Messmer and
Boyle, the two tackles last season, have
not been out for work yet, but will be out
on Monday. For the guard positions there
Is Frehn, a former Iawrence university
star; Currle, who achieved a name for
himself nt Klpon college; Bell, a Toinah
player; Dreutzcr, a crew man; Faulus, who
starred on last year's freshman eleven,
and several others are fighting for the
place. Osthoff and Arpin are being worked
at tackle, while Wiles and Iaklsch are
working at center on the ' two squads.
Bpringer. who earned his "W" two year
ago; Cunningham and Moll will fight it
out for quarterback.
Stlpbm Out of It.
After a long deliberation, the law faculty
of the University of Wisconsin has de
cided that it would not grant Stletim an
examination on the subject in which he
received a condition during th summer
session. Ibis decision knocks out all
chances of his holding down tho crntiT of
the line for the Badgers this year unles
another appeal, which ulll lw made ot the
regents. Is successful. I; means that Wis
consin will bo without tho services of one
of its star players, one that vied with
"Oermany" Bchultt for the honors of all
western renter last full. The center of
the line will now bo filled by cither Wihe
or Iaklsrh, according to the llne-ops which
have been used by Coach Barry so far.
Cunningham, last year's quarter, received
a painful, but not sirious. Injury while
diving for the ball last wk, lie foil on
hi shoulder and wrenched It. An exami
nation of the Injury proved that It waa
not serious, although be would bo kept
out of the game for a week and a half.
Aa Moll is In bad physical shape at pres
ent, tho team will bo In bad shape unless
"Krnle" Bpringer removes his con.
Two more candidates for positions In the
line appesred last night Bell, a big 173
pounder from Tomah, and Dicutser, the
crew man. Both are heavy and gave
Coach Barry much encouragement by their
work last night.
The line-up in the practice has been:
Ieft end. Captain Rogers; left center,
Ko'b; left guard. Frehn; center. Wllce;
right guard, Drrutzer; right tackle. Osthoff:
right end. Dean; quarterback, Dewey; left
half back, Bunker; right half back,
Muckloston; full back. Culver.
Coach Ten Kyck expect to get the crew
candidates out on the water next week,
The roachlng launch will be put into tho
water Monday and the coach expects to
have two men out In the water each after
noon, getting Into shape for the annual
regatta wihlch will take place in the
morning of October II.

DRIVERS DO NOT TAKE CHANCES
Champion Strang Talks of the Ways
Chauffeur.
NEW YORK, Oct. 3-Louls Strang,
champion auto driver of America, says:
"Drivers of auto racing cars gnt a lot
mora credit for being 'dare devils' than
they deserve. As n. matter ot fact, a
driver takes very little cliance for an ac
cldent which may put 1:1s car out of a
race and himself In a hospital, If nothing
wore. Human instinct, which guided the
cyclists, asserts Itself to the earn or
greater degree with the chauffeur. A won
derful good pair of eyes have helped In
my success as a driver. Judge of speed
and tha marvelous accuracy In estimating
the comparative width of tha opening and
relative width of tho car he is driving will
enable tho driver to pass through safely
when the wheels may graze. Every driver
knows almost positively Just what his
car can safely do on a dangeroua turn
Having acquired that knowledge, a careful
driver will Just hold his car to the mini
mum. for in case of a bursting tire he
would be able to retain control of the
machine.
"Strength counts for very little In
driver, but rather nerves, quickness and
endurance. Speed In a car- frequently may
avert an accident, as tho driver, having
J his car at ita highest speed, aeems to be
almost able to lift the front of the machine
and place It away from danger. To heel
tate even for the fraction of a second at
such a crisis might mean death.
"Fool friends In my car have often asked
mo to let out a few links right here on
Broadway, which would be the height of
foolishness on the part of any sane driver.
The violation of the speed ordinance is
tho loHSt reanon for a refusal to grant the
request to ride fast, for human lives are
Intensely sacred to the drivers of racing
autos who know what danger means.
"Ever since I first grasped a steering
wheel and knew how to drivo an auto, my
main Idea waa to learn how to drive my

TRAVERS' NERVE WINS HONOR
Daring hnt at Critical Time l.aatfa
Championship.
NEW YORK, Oct. ".-Marvellous accuracy
in the shot to the pin marks tho difference
between the play of Jerome D. Travel and
oilier gollera. The manner in which he
couiagenusly played a full brassy for 130
yards right up to tha hole on tho seven
teenth hole at Garden City won the cham
pionship for him. It wa a phenomenal
stroke of brilliancy at a moment when the
shot was called for, similar to that of a
Varden or a Braid. Travers thought that
Travis was practically sure of a 5, so, ap
parently, he had to get a 4 to win. Ho
tried for the 4 and got It. The brassy
atroke wa played with a slight hook, and
was so nicely calculated that when it came
to rest on the green It was only about fif
teen feet short of tho cup. It was a shot

Only, a shade less sensational, but Jusl
as brilliant, waa hla grand midlron ap
proach to within one foot of the thirteenth
hole In the morning round of the same
match. Here he had gained about 400 yards
In two shots, and waa about 110 feet from
the pin. Ho elected to run up with his
iron. He played a beautiful shot, allowing
for the side roll, and his ball atopped Just
short of the pin. Travia on the Ilka mude
a beauty, but It left him a long butt,
which he could not hole. Analysis of
TarveTs' play as compared with other
players Indicate that he la one of the few
that possess a long game well under control.
CASSASA SHINES AS A SPRINTER
Fordham College Boy Shaai Merit ns
a. Foot Racer.
NKW YORK, Oct. 3. The performance
of Charles 8. Cassasa, the young Fordham
college and Irish-American Athetotic Club
aprinter who won the Junior National quarter-mile
championship, and then on the next
day forced Harry Hlllman to do 4H aeconds
to beat him by a scant five yarda for the
senior title, la a good Illustration of what
can be accomplished by amateurs.
For the last couple of years Cassasa haa
been running sprint races. He haa shown
undeniable class, unlimited gameness, and
perseverance. There haa been something
lacking In the Fordham collegian' work,
however, that haa always kept him out of
the champion class. He could hold his
own in the handicap dashes, yet when It
came to the big scratch races CasB&sa
has always been a few yards short at the
finish, and. like every good amateur, the
Fordham youth haa aspired all along to
shine in the championship class.
Early this summer something induced
Cassasa to try a quarter-mile race Instead
of his usual sprint. HI first attempt was
at tho Firemen' Memorial games, and the
handicapper thought so lightly of Cassasa's
chancre that he put tho erstwhile sprinter
out on the limit 15 yards. And at the
crack of the gun Cassasa waa away like
a flash, and at. the end of the furlong was
leading the field and going like the wind.
Right here Cassasa showed a quality that
he never before knew he had strength of
curling up In tho last 200 yarda. as the
average dasher does In trying the "400,''
Casassa came tearing up the stretch, run
ning straight and true, with his legs moving
like well oiled pistons, and finished an easy
winner In 4&4 seconds.
It did not tako Kmie Hjertbetg many
minutes to reason out that in young Cas.

How Much does it Cost to
Keep a Ramber?
This question was put to two hundred Rambler own
ers. Each had driven over twelve thousand miles. The aver
age, we found, was less than two cents a mile.
There are good reasons for this. This two-cylinder
is the product of years of experience in automobile building. The exper
ience of over fourteen thousand owners is embodied in its design.
Notice its unusual features unit power plant with small fuel con
sumption. Enclosed parts to exclude dirt which causes wear. Immediate
access to all working parts. Tilting body. Adjustments can be made with
ease. Simply constructed, with few parts. Dirt, mud, water and oil tight.
Long wheel base full elliptic springs no vibration to jar
things loose. Quiet and easy riding. With tonneau, carries five
passengers; remove the tonneau and it becomes a two-passenger
roadster. Will you let us call at your home and
take you to your place of business in a Rambler?
