Judgments
FOOT BALL GETS AN OYATION
m m HE Boston Braves went after that
I first gama with tho same dh
5 that eent them from last to first
place In the National league.
Evidently they don't miss a
whole lot by not getting to practice in
the afternoon at the Shine park. They
may not have teen familiar with the
landscape, the color scheme or the sun
and shades, but they seem to have got
along wonderfully well In their Ignorance.
With their youth, vigor, speed, skill and
yet seasoned experience as represented
In Evers on the field and Stalling on the
bench, the Braves ought to be able to
hold their own against any team. It has
seemed to u from the first that they had
a better chance than was commonly sup
posed, or reflected In the betting. They
may lose the series, but It Is our notion
they will go down fighting hard. Or they
may win and not upset preceaent. There
stands the freak record of 19og to confute
and confound. At that, we think there Is
less disparity between Boston and the
Athletics today than there was between
the Box and Cubs then, all the odds being
in favor of the cubs who lost. But for
Walsh. Owen and White, the Sox could
not, even with luck In their favor, have
won. And If pitchers are to decide the
world's battle this year, what shall we
say? It looks as if things were almost
even, especially In view of the way Chief
Bender was treated Friday. A collateral
Interest In the present world's champion
ship centers In the Federals' persistent
challenge for consideration. Of course,
It will not b heeded, Is doubtless not In
tended to be, but refusal on the part of
Boston or Philadelphia will nevertheless
furnish the Feds' with a new hook on
whleh to hang new claims for existence
another year. Of course, the organized
champions would have all to lose and
nothing to gain In point of standing to
accept the Federal challenge.
The rambler striving for graft out of
tickets and the professional fake dopster
have come to be part and parcel of every
world's series. So far as the Injury they
do the game, the dopster seems the worse
to us. Here, for instance, la the fellow
who every year pretends to be able to
dope out the contests so scientifically as
to figure out in advance Just how many
hits, runs and errors each man will make.
And the worst of It Is that he finds fans
to fall for It. Of course, his power of
hurting the game would be nil, otherwise.
But he has his following, superficial
thinkers who never stop to reflect that
hl dope never comes within a gun-shot
of the results. If they would only take
time to hark back a year or two and
compare this rot with results they would
soon see what "fools we mortals be,"
some of us. If base ball were so trans
parent a game as to be susceptible of
aueh analyses made In advance. It
wouldn't be worth a fig as a sport and
wouldn't have lasted all these years. Of
course, the fact Is that the dopster knows
wo more about how a game Is coming out
than the most Ignorant of his credulous
followers. The only thing Is that he
finds It possible to make a good living
by, quaking his followers think he does
think t-at he Is able by some occult
science which he has stowed away In his
fertile brain to tell beforehand Just what
very man Is going to do. Bo far as
world's series contests are concerned, the
sjrise fan who keeps records In mind,
hazards little since 1906, when one team
beat another Incomparable better than
Itself.
The biggest factor In being a success
ful manager Is the ability or the ma
mma to get the players. No manager
Is apt to succeed In building up a win
ning team without these and the addi
tional element of a free hand. Connie
Mack wins pennants because he Is let
alone to exercise his own Judgment. If
he were harrassed and restricted by a
lot of fellows who, however clever at
manipulating finances, knew nothing of
base ball, he. too, would fall In time.
The history of the New York Americans
Is the best evidence of this we know of

Big and Awkward, but a Real Catcher
II r I KWK H K.l.K.Y.
Foot ball was given a rcneral Introduc
tlnn to all the local pigskin warriors last
Sunday and it received an ovation. Al- :
though It was a trifle warm, nevertheless, '
large crowds were on hand to witness i
the games. Heretofore it always has been j
a difficult matter to secure gridirons on I
which to stiigo local contests, but this 1
season it will he a cinch, mainly because
of the municipal fields, which are to be
had for tho nsklng. From present indica
tions, approximately twenty teams will
be mustered In Omaha, about three .n
Council Bluffs and a pair in Soutii Omaha,
making a total of twenty-five.
Colombians Win (tat.
The Columbians, the squad with cham
pionship aspirations, started the ball
a-rolllng last Sunday by Icing their ini
tial mix.
The Wisner, Neb., team, stale cham
pions, won the opener from the California
Athletics. According to the dope, they
were only going to utilize the services of
their coach, Kinky Wulwonh, when they
had a real tough match, but, regardless
of this, he worked against the California
Athletics.
' The Monmouth Parks, the other Omaha
squad to be feared by Wisner and others
with championship aspirations spent last
Sunday practicing. This team Is com
posed of men who think more of playing
foot ball than any other pleasure.
Combination Affair Today.
At the Ilourke ba ball park this aft
ernoon there will be a combination foot
ball and base ball affair. Last week the
Alamitos Issued a defl to any Omuha
team and it was taken up by the Ancient
Order of United Workmen team. There
will be a toO purse, lilrsch, the Omaha
wizard, will pitch for the Workmen and
SuteJ will work for the opposition.
At 4:30 the Columbian foot ball squad J
will lineup against the Fontenelles. This
will be the first Sunday foot ball game

NEW HAVEN, Conn., Oct. 1. Affairs
are progressing smoothly at Yale. With
the exception of Walter Camp, no (visit
ing coaches have yet appeared at Vale
field, and the work has been left to the
resident staff, Hlnkey, Cornish, Martlng

dle of the line, where a number of candi
dates are fighting for positions. Charles
Bheldon, who was captain of the I'A'.i
freshman eleven, and Jim Bheldon are
having a hard fight for the right guard
plaoa, but thus far the chances appear
to favor Jim. I'uinmelly, although still
on tha second squad, manages to get Into
the limelight one way op another In every
practice. Hacently he developed a sur
prising knack of throwing forward passes,
one of which resulted In a touchdown
for the scrubs against ths varsity. Otis

Heinie Zimmerman
Has Two Weaknesses
Heinle Zimmerman, the fiery third
sacker of the Cubs, has two weaknesses
umpires and neckties. Heine, however,
dislikes umpires as much as be likes red
neckties. And the sight of an umpire acts
upon Heine in much the same way as a
red necktie acts on a bull.
It has been reported, although the re
port has not been confirmed, that Heine
has more neckties than Charley Murphy,
once the bosa of Heinle. But no matter
how many ties "Chubby Charley" baa.
the fact remains that Heinle has enough
