McGraw Has Won Six Pennants
Won His First
Speaker Most
J - By FREDERICK G. LIEB.
r
-'AN John McGraw,
off the jinx which so relentlessly has pursued
all graduates of th3 old Baltimore school of
base ball in world's series competition? That
is the question of the hour. The defeats which
have been administered in world's series to
teams piloted by former members of the famous
Orioles have been uncanny in their regularity.
McGraw and his chief lieutenant,
Hughie Jennings, alone ' have , suf
fered seven world's series defeats.
VVilbert Robinson, the crack catcher
of the old Baltimore champions, has
lost both: ot his . world s series in
Brooklyn, while "Kid" Gleason.
pitcher and second baseman on the
Orioles, was leader of the White Sox
when they went down to their in
famous defeat in 1919. .
This will be the seventh National
league . championship 'for John Mc
Graw; a new record for big league
managers. Prior to this year, Mc
Graw , and Mack
were - tied with
six league cham
pionships.'1 How
ever, .defeat in
another world's
series would take
much of the joy
out of setting a
n e w managerial
record. '
' McGraw v won
his first world's
scries in 1905,
when the great
Mathewson shut
out the Alhletics
three times in a
week. Since then
the team, led by New York's ,little
mpolean, have been defeated by the
Athletics in 1911, by the Red Sox in
1912, again by the Athletics in 1918
and by the White Sox in 1917.
The Giant leader is known io base
ball as a snap judgment manager.
In other words, he, usually decides
plays on the spur of the moment
rather than mapping out a difficult
campaign in advance. He is a Tiard
driver of his players when thing
go bad, though he hasn't used the
whip on his present team the way
he did with, the threetime cham
pions of 1911, 1912 and 1913. There
were players on that club. who did

Graw used the whip and spur freely.
Players on Giant teams, however,
have the greatest respect for Mc
Graw's leadership and knowledge of
base ball. They may differ with his
judgment at the time, but in the end
will admit McGraw was right. ,
In Tris Speaker, the Indians have
one of the most magnetic chieftains
in base ball; a playing manager who
can make his players work ior him
like Frank Chance of old. Speaker,
however, is of a different type than
the growly old bear who used to
lead the Cubs to victory in numer
ous pennant and world's series'
wars. Personally Speaker is far
more popular with the Indians than
Chance ever was with the Chicago
olavers. The reverence and love
which the Cleveland players feel for
the great Spoke seldom has had a
counterpart in base ball.
Cleveland's great spurt after Speak
er's accident in St. Louis early in
the month showed how the spirit of
Tris could keep the Tribe in the
winnine column.
"We've got to keep winning for
Tris sake, was the battle cry ot
the Indians in the east.
Keens Team Fighting.
Speaker handled the Indians clever
ly in the 19fl) world s series with
Brooklyn, and continually kept his
fighting team on its tos. He has
met the Giants twice in pos:-s'eason
clashes. In 1909, when the Gianti
and Red Sox both finished third,
Speaker -beat New York almost
singlehanded, while Tris was a big
factor in Boston's narrow victory
over the Giants in the. world's series
of 1912. ' '
In the. event that the Yankees

Here's the World Series Dope Can
You Figure Out Who Will Be This
Year's Hero of Base Ball Diamond?
New York, Sept. 29. Billy Wambsganss, Stanley
Coveleskie were last year's, outstanding stars ; will they
repeat? Every world series produces its hero.
Some player is always greeted by Dame Opportunity
and takes advantage of the chance to make his deeds stand
out above those of his team-mates and the players of the op
posing team.
Last year Billy Wambsganss, with an unassisted triple
play to his credit, was hailed as the hero of the big series by
many critics but the most consistent outstanding star was
Stanley Coveleskie. ,
Who will be the hero of this year's classic? Will he be
a pitcher? Pitchers have monopolized the hero roles in the
past. Will he be an outfielder? Or will he be a catcher or
an infielder? The playing of the series alone can decide.
In series of the past pitchers have
hogged the limelight. Bill Dineen
started it in 1903 when his great
pitching enabled the Red Sox to
come from behind and defeat the
Pirates iii five out of eight games,
"Big Six" followed Dineen's lead in
1905 and set a world's series shutout
record when he hurled three shutout
victories for the Giants . against
Philadelphia, shutting the Mackmen
out, 3 to 0, 9 to 0 and 2 to 0.
George Rohe, third baseman of the
White Sox, was the hero in. 1906 and
Harry Stcinfeldt came along to grab
the glory iu 1907. Frank Chance,
whose all-around playing marked
him as the-hero of the 1908 series; is
the only first baseman who ever
starred in the big fall classic. Other

Sutton was a little too fast for Grand
Island, tirand Island brought practically
the same team that plsyed on Its home
grounds sereral weeks ago. but ths hits
Sutton got off of the pitcher were more,
effective In this game. Sutton played the
same team that has been performing dur
ing the past month and the teamwork was
very effective. Meihalf, whose game dur
ing the first part of the season was not
up to tbe usual standard, played a star
game. Sutton won the game by some
very effective batting. In the fourth.
I.iUtodel knocked a home run with a
man on base, making two scores. In the
eighth Lots swatted one Into the creek,
netting him three bags and bringing a
man home. It was In this play that the
Grand Island fielder got ths ball out of
the creek bed In such record time that
most of the fans flgared that there must
hare been an extra ball brought into
play. The fielder claimed the ball hit ths

Ohio Commission Is Incompetent
Charged With Many Blunders
Kilbane-Frush Fight An Example
By PRANK C. MENKE.
(OtrlM. IMI, kf KIM
LEVEL AND is famous for many things but its
boxing commission is not included in the group.
In fact, that very same boxing: commission
is doing a lot toward making: the Ohio purlieu
just exactly the opposite.
One wonders, as the array of facta are re
viewed, whether the commission has been sim
Dly seeking publicity for itself in misguided
ashion or whether it's a
n executive powers and nstic
Within a few months, that tame
commission has had charged against
its account, two of the worst liascos
in boxing history. And the com
mission, in its efforts to shroud its
stupidity, hat added to the collcc
tion of boners by attempting alibis
and pop-eyed decisions.
Johnny . Wilson meandered into
town to fight Bryan Downey. The
champion - insisted that Jimmy
Gardner, his handpicked referee,
should officiate. Gardner had no
Ohio license.. The Boxing commis
sion stated bold-like that Gardner
couldn't referee that a Cleveland
official must go into the ring. vVilson
said: "Gardner or no fight." The
Boxing' commission declared "An
Ohio referee or no fight."
Commission Backed Down.
The men fought and Gardner
was in the ring, in direct violation
of the Cleveland boxing rules. The
"brave" commission had backed
down ingloriously. The bout ended
in a near riot. Wilson apparently
was knocked out. The referee gave
him the fight on a foul.
The commission, thereupon, de
clared that Downey was champion.
It tried by that move to -make
.mends for its terrible blunder in
permitting Wilson's private referee
to officiate. But no one paid any at
tention to its decision, which was a
violation of all the rules of the
prize ring, which state emphatically:
"None but the referee or ring
judges can render decisions."
Eventually the Johnny Kilbane
Dauny Frush thing came along
The fighters, the promoter and the
public wanted Jack Dcmpsey to
referee. He was willing. But the
Boxing commission, with haughty
mein stated:

spineless outfit, lacking utterly

"Dcmpsey cannot referee. We
want a referee ior this fight; not
fighter."
Barred Dempsey.
Ey its edict the commission placed
Dcinp.-cy, veteran of a hundred
fights. Itnd referee for counties
others, in the class of J.-ieompe-tents.
What an absurdity to take
the position that the champion of
titic champions, . who must know
every twist and every angle in the
rule, was not fit to referee
pugilistic battle!
The commission then named one;.'
newspaper man to referee and two
others to act as judges. Kiluane ap- .
proved the referee, lie was opposed'V n
to the judges. The reason probably
was that these men, in stories writ
ten through the months and years,
cither had shown a dislike for him,
held him cheaply as a champion, or.
through articles' written concerning
the Frush fight already had pre
judged it. ?
Anyway, Kilbauc objected.
He was .within his rights. Cer
tainly the articles called for the nam
ing of men ."agreeable to both fight
crs." ' The two , judges original!
named were not approved by Kilbane
He -'so informed the commission
Thereupon the commission emitted ;
loud howl and added: j
"You shall have those judges and
none other." -
Displaced Judges.
"If you don't change the judges,
there'll be: no fight," retorted Kil
bane. "I'm not asking you to put
judges in 'who are going to give m
the best of it. I'm not trying to tell
you what judges should work. I'm
merely asking you to displace men
whom I, find objectionable. There'
nothing wrong, in that."
Tlie commission then issued a
flambuoyant statement. It tried to
put the blame upon Kilbane who.
wasn't to blame at all. ; But it dis
placed the original judges.
After the battle it was announced
that the Cleveland boxing commis
sion had suspended Kilbane. Why?.
Apparently because Kilbane insisted
as was his right upon the efface
ment of judges wliom he felt might -have
pre-judged his fight.
It would seem that the real move
for the boxing commission to make
would be to suspend itself by the
feet. For its actions seem to call
for the hanging of its head in shame.
