    GIANTS -STAGE
.ANOTHER 19H.
MIRACLE PLAY
New York Nationals Are
. Pulling Another George
Stallings Climb Up
The Ladder.
"Miracle men" in base ball have
about reached their peak with the
public,' it would seem, since the
marvelous recuperation of the
Giants has put 1hem in a position
where they can" almost see the 1920
pennant waving fr,om their fldg-pole.-
Jn 1914, when the Braves made
a. supreme effort and finished on
to'p after a" march from the bottom
of the ladder, the delighted base
ball world arose and hailed George
Stallings as the miracle man of base
ball. Last fait, when the Reds won
a pennant and then trampled the
' White Sox in the world's series,
' Pat Moran was crowned with
George Stallings' withering laurel.
Now, the Giants have done it, so
it may be predicted that the metro-
politan and other kind of press will
go into hysteria over John J. Mc
, Graw if the Giants capture the flag.
! Evers Wat There.
It hasn't apparently occurred to
I-' base ball followers that John J.
Evers was captain of the 1914
Braves and that when he left the
game the Braves'-. deteriorated into
an ordinary ball , club. ' It also ap
parently has been overlooked, that
John visited Pat Moran in the clos
ing throes of last year's campaign,
helped in the last gasps, and scout
' ed for the White Sox preliminary
to the world's series games. He
yas Moran's ablest lieutenant' dur
ing the series and his advice was
seriously followed. Then, only after
i scrutinizing these facts, it is only
necessarv to announce that the spurt
of the Giants dates practically from
the day when Evers began to lend
his fire-breathing apparatus to the
work of the Giants.
This is not intended as an essay
on the merits of Mr. Evers. Far
from it. The average fan thinks
of second base and John Evers at
the same,, ime so, he knows who
. the famous Trojan isl quite as well
as anyone else. The object of this
outburst is to freshen the memory
" a bit. The -fans will draw their
f own conclusions regarding who is
really entitled to the , lily wreath
that Indicates p. miracle man.

that John Evers, a John McGraiw

known Irisjiman, will , succeed

the future as might seem. McGraw
' admittedly has nung onto the job
at times when he really was grow
ing fretful tinder long years in the
-harness. He wanted to make sure
that he would' find someone who
' could handle the club, as he had
handleLit. , ."
With this view in mind, McGraw
re-engaged Christjr Mathewson after
the famous old .pitcher had made a
failure of managing. Cincinnati.
Matty was sick-and lacked energy.
Therefore he soon proved that he
would not do. f Then McGraw be
gan to look about for other timber.
He considered Larry Doyle, but
something bou"t' Larry made him
an outsider. ' Arthur Fletcher was
given consideration, but- he, too,
lacked something. Then McGraw
sent for John Evers and hired him
to coach the then faltering Giants.
The results stick out in the aver
ages. fcTow that Evers has succeeded

he refuses to go to it.
A plebiscite of birthday, surprise
and block part'es indicates that this!

convention on the 57th ballot. But
Adam wasn't absent without leave.
History says be wore at least one.
Brvan is thi stepfather of prohibi
tion, and it seems strange that he
should refuse a plum just when he
has the persimmon in his grasp.
But what . is a nomination to a
man who hops from nomination' to
nomination iikr an eggsnapca cue

Bill has his trophy room clogged
with antlers of nominations which
he gunned during the good old d&ys
when democrats roamed the onice
prairies in coualless herds and nom-
inations were passea irom mm 10

"' Why should a man who has been
voted against by the best people in
the restricted suburbs accept a nom
ination which phonetically spells

he likes it with a slow fuse.,. , .

skirts will be considerably longer in
San Francisco and New York, show

When thl Walker bill legalizing
boxing in tue state of New York
was passed there was an agonized
squawk from a certain coterie of
fighters and their managers, who at
tempted to point out to the legisla
ture that bouts to a decision would
have a bad effect on boxing because
it would keep champions from de
fending their titles in New York
despite the fact that in this city more
persons will'go to see a bont than
in any other. They complained that
states tyvhich have no-decision laws
would urofit. '
Whether, they were looking at the
matte' from the proper angle is best
judged by these facts:
The governor appointed his box
ing commission about .a month ago
and since that time Jack Dempsey,
world's heavyweight , champion, has,
signed an agreement calling for his
appearance against Bill Brennan in
a JNew York ring. ' ';
Lightweights to Mix.
Benuy Leonard, world's light
weight champion, has signed articles
with Eddie Fitzsimnions. They will
go IS rounds to a decision the night
of September 17 at Madison Square
Garden Under the chaperonage' of
Tex Rickard.
Battling Levinsky and Georges
Carpentier, light-heavyweight cham
pions', respectively, of Europe and
the United States, are matched to
box 15 rounds to a decision the aft
ernoon of October 12 before the In
ternational Sporting club at Ebbets
Field, Brooklyn.
No 'other bouts have been an
nounced. Naturally promoters were
eager to have champions appear in
action for New York's public first,
and they went after the champions.
Jack Kearns, manager of Dempsey,
Sought the match with Brennan.
Rickard had absolutely no trouble in
getting Leonard's signature to a set
of articles calling on the lightweight
king to"meet anyone Rickard should
select. And Fitzsimmons jumped at
the chance to get the match. .
Carpentier is unused to the no-decision
thing, which has been giving
boxing a black eye in this country.
ievmsKy is, dui ne reaauy agreed to
the IS rounds to a decision when the
International Sporting club bid for
the match. This match was made
while Carpentier was in the United
States on his theatrical tour. It was
held in abeyance, with Jack Curley
the matchmaker", -; while Carpentier
took his "wife home and visited his
parents.
Champs Must Fight.
Then the. howl of managers of
fighters and the fighters themselves
who really fear decisions is .turned
to milk and honey. Any boxer who
consistently ignores New York from
this time on will be known to the
boxing public as a gent who doesn't
care to risk his laurels in a decision
bout. I '.
There is only one thing regret
table about the New York law. It
does detract from New Jersey.
Twelve-round bouts are permitted in
that state, but no decisions can be
given. The poor handling of bouts
in that state by a few clubs has al
ready sickened the New York fight
loving public, so little real loss will
be felt. It will work, however, to
ward keeping champions out of New
Jersey rings. They can viake more
money in the New York rings, even
if it is certain that they must train
hard and fight hard in order Jo avoid
their just deserts. s
France, Italy and Switzerland are
producing a large number of motor
cars for exportation.

DEATH OF RAY
CHAPMAN IS TO
: BRING REFORM
Makers of Sporting Goods
r Fashionjng Head Protec
tors for Base Ball
Players.'
The death of Ray Chapman,
Cleveland shortstop, through a bjow
on the head by a pitched ball, seeffts
bound to bring about a reform, in
base ball that has been badly netd
cd for many years. Experts em
ployed by sporting goods houses
are now at work on models for head
protectors which will be offered for
general use of batters very soon.
Had Chick Fewster been wearing
a protector to pad his head ' he
would be playing as a regular with
the Yankees today. If Roy Corhan
had been using one when with the
White Sox he probably would be
in the big league, and it is more
than probable that Frank Chance
would fiaye lasted 'longer if he had
not Abandoned his plan to wear a
helmefof , his own "design.
fv'i, Chfjnce Mad One.
Chance,;;when a iipember of the
Cubs, and rilanagingthat club, , was
one of thegamest! batters base ball
ever, has known. He was knocked
cold several times when,, frit on the,
head by pitched balls, and on a few
of these occasions it vvas proble
matical whether he would recover
sufficiently to resume playing ball.
After his second connection with a
fast ball the Cub leader determined
to 1iave,made a leather helmet to
protect his head and actually took
it to the park with him for use. It
was not satisfactory, however, and
he soon discarded it.
What form the helmet will take
is a matter for considerable specu
lation. Already it has been suggest
ed that a protector something like
those 'worn by aviators might be
used. Foot ball headgear also has
been suggested. Chances-are, how
ever, that the ultimate design will
be a strip of stiff leather extending
completely around the head, reach
ing below" the temples and above
the eyes. Two straps crossing each
other at the top probably will hold
it,tovthe top of the head. These
willy form .a,, cushion on top. of the
head. Heavy felt,- with an air
cushion, probably, will form the
padding.) A chin strap would com
plete' this protective device, which
would be" light, and 'without the

helmet would give a ball player.
Serious Question.
The question is. a serious one.
Now that the emerv ball, shine ball,
and other deceptive tricks of base
ball have been ruled out of the
game batters are becoming more
bold. They crowd -the plate more
closely because they know there jfs
small chance for a swift break if
the ball is not scuffed.! Chapman
probably lost his life because the
ball Mays used was scuffed and
took the fatal hop as it neared the
batter.

guards invented by Roger Bresna
han and now used by every catch
er. Players have chuckled when it
was suggested a head protector be
used bv them, but the two recent
injuries to athletes probably will do
away with any ridicule that might
otherwise be offered.
. Chick' Fewster'4 injury was prac
tically as bad as the one received
by Chapman. . That he ij alive to
day is due only to the extraordinary
skill of the surgeons who attended
him and the fact that he was phys
ically able to withstand the very
delicate operation. ! that was per
formed immediately.
