FULL OF TRICKS
111 TIIEOLD DAYS
He Met His Match One Time,
However, When He Tried to
Pull Somthing on Joe -Tinker.
Otto Knabe, now coach of the Chi
cago Cubs, was one of the trickiest
(layers on the infield in the National
itagtie When activity engaged in the
game. He possessed the nerve of a
lion and never feared to attempt any
thing on any bait player. The indi
vidual made no difference to him. He
probably has had more fights and
arguments on the ball field than any
other man in the game and that docs
not bar Johnny Evers, Charlie Herzog
and Miller Huggfns. Knabe loved fo
dispute; it was part of his aggressive-
lies, and he could not play the game
well unless he wrangled with one of
his oppents. . . , . , ,
He did not lose many battles and
seldom failed in any of his tricks, ex
cept one, ; That time he" was out
guessed by Joe Tinker, who then
managed the Citicl.tyati club in 1913,
end it in event injKnabe's life that
tyTT alL,feCl,er d Jong, as " lives.
tSiV-" being outguessed in that
jiUy uat cVsd hc t iorable fight
i SVtt and Knabtf . econd base
in Cincinnati To' whiver both were
chased from the RelrJ and later, fihfjd
by the president of the league'. ;
Knabe was nlwavs a quick thinker
on the field. He was doing things to
upset the plans of the opponents. This
day Tinker was perched on first base.
A ball was driven to right field on
a line. ''When it was hit Knabe saw
that Tinker would attempt to make
third on the play and it was " vp
to him to slow Joe up and make him
cover more ground. To do this he
placed himself in such position that
Tinker would have to go around him,
thereby losing time. Tinker was on
tire alert, and instantly saw Knabe s
bit of strategy and acted.
As' he approached the middle bag'
Tinker, instead of running to the out
side ot Knabe, shortened his stride
tnd 'turned to the inside. As he
reached the inficlder he hooked him
on the jaw with his right hand, dazing
him and sending him out of the way.
For a moment Knabe did not know
what happened, but he turned in time
to see Tinker slide safely into third.
His trick had failed.
That was not the end of the com-!
bat. i Two inings later Tinker was
again settled on first and a long fly
was driven to deep right field. Tinker,
as soon as the ball was caught, broke
ior second. He made the base easily
and Knabe knew it, but nevertheless
he took the throw and to avenge him
self for the punch he .received he
dived into Tinker, throwing all his
weight into him and punching at the
same time. In a -flash they were
mauling around the ground. No dam
age was done and they were sepa
tated and banished.
"As soon as that old ball game
begins they are all my enemies," said
Knabe, "but off the field they are my
friends. I bear anioiosityagainst no
ball player regardless of what he has
done to me on the field. If he can
get away with anything he is entitled
to do it. ' I have the same privilege
fnd if I do not reciprocate it is my
fault."
Knabe came within arf ace of clash
ing with Tinker and Les Matut'.in
Pittsburgh two years ago. He was
then, with the Pirates. Mann was on
second base and set himself to dash
for third on a fly to right field. Knabe
had his trick figured out as soon as
the ball sailed into the air. As the
ball started down he edged toward
Mann and stepped on the foot that
was on the bag as the right fielder
made the catch. Mann, of course,
broke with the catch, but finding
Knabc's foot on his, stumbled before
he got started, but did reach third.
Mann flew into a rage as he landed
fori the bag. ' He told Tinker what
pal happened and then Joe got on
Krabe and for an inning or two it
kvoked as if the scrappy second sacker
was due, for a lacing, but he only
laughed at the two, ridiculing them
because he was able to get away with

Weather Fine and Amateur
kase Bail Players Put Up
Good Article of National
Game.
By Frank Quigley.
Under blue sky Sunday afternoon
the local ball tossers dished up in
most cases a very desirable brand of
base ball, which was apparently well
enjoyed by the large crowds that or
namented the various municipal parks.
Even during these panicky war-time
days enthusiastic devotees of the
Class A amateurs can locate a slip
pery dime or two to toss the usher at
the enclosed parks, namely, Holmes
and Luxus. The largest crowd of the
season was on hand to greet the Kra
jiceks and Armours at Luxus park.
Beselins Down a Peg.
In the Greater Omaha, the Beselins
dropped from the floor next to the
roof to the main floor, leaving the cel
lar open for the Holmes White Sox.
Said drop shifted the Metcalfs to roost
two and the Longeways still-have an
ice mau's grip on first place. . The
Murphy Did Its took the count in
their . first debate with the Holmes
White Sox, but came back in Frank
Gotch style and took a toe hold on
duel number two. During the first
argument three smashes for the limit
were delivered, one . by Rushenberg,
one by Baldwin and another by Lacey.
Peanuts Mason roasted 'em over too
hot for the Axmours in their first tan
gle with, the Krajiceks, consequently
the Krajiceks copped the long end of
a 9 to 1 score. Only' two hits were
collected off of Mason's shoots, one
of which was a home run by Cor
coran. The Krajiceks got careless
during the second battle and the Ar
mours picked the flowers.
These Steal a Place. .
Those Central Furniture boys stole
up the ladder to second place by
trouncing the Stags, but the National
Cash Registers held the crown by
defeating the Woodmen of the World
children. At the present writing the
Woodmen of the World team is in a
sadly depleted condition. It is in
need of a catcher, pitcher and in
ficlder. For further information com
municate with Robert Elliott at Web

the Harley-Davidsons, who have
failed to date to snag a game, scored
the J. B. Roots for a few chapters,
but the Roots rooted up three more
runs than the Harleys before the fire
works terminated.
It looks like some team in the Inter-City
league will have to dig up
some dynamite to jar the Daily News
crew out of 'first place. They are still
leading the parade, with the Dreshers
on their trail. Yesterday the Dresh
ers and Krajiceks put on the best
show of the afternoon, it being full
of thrills for 10 acts and terminating
with the score knotted, 4 to 4. i
