SPORTS MERKLE MAKES STUPID PLAY Emulates John Anderson by Attempt- Ing to Steal Third Base While That Sack Occupled. Some offside information of the St. Louis Cardinals’ recent visit to New York {8 to the effect that a “Merkle” play distinctly characteristic of the man who lost the Giants a pennant helped Bill Steele get away with his victory over the Néw Yorkers, Steele was pretty freely hit in the game he pitched. He was beginning to wab- ble and totter in the seventh inning and the Giants were going after him bard. With one gone Murray = and Fred Merkle. Merkle singled, and with Murray on third Merkle stole second. Bridwell tapped to the box and Steele nailed him at first. That made two out, but with men on second and third and strong indications of one of those fa- mous Giant rallies, it still looked pret- ty uncertain for the Cardinals. Then what did Merkle do? He stole third base! And Murray holding down that cushion. Necessarily, the rules not providing for two men holding one station, the Glant rally was cracked then and there. Percentages Change Often. So many changes are being made in the percentage column these days It makes fans dizzy to keep track of them. Tex Jones Hits Stride. Tex Jones is batting .839 in the ‘Western league race.

Mathewson Sending Over Fadeaway Giants' Pitcher’s Slants Proving Just as Effective Against Heavy Batters as In Former Years Which. Is More CGapable, Bench or The_ discussion as to the relative| merits of & bench and pliying mana- for a baseball team is again un: der way, a “I believe that before long all man: agers will be bench managers,” says Hugh McBreen, treasurer of the Bos: ton Americans. “I think the game i coming to that Baseball has gone shead so much and come to be so fast, before long the manager will have all he can do to sit on the bench and 4ai- rect the play without attempting to get upon the coaching lines. Mana- gers must plan ahead, must be figur- ing out the next play, and upon the lines they are apt to lose sight of moves ahead they have in their minds In the immediate duties of coaching. “You see a manager coaching at first base one minute and then @& situ- ation arises that takes him over to third base, and it doesn’t seem to me that he can make these moves and at the same time plan as clearly as if he were on the bench Wwithout any- thing to bother him except planning. Then, agein, by sitting on the bench all the time with the players around him hé is constantly getting their |deas and finding out just what they think of what ought to be done.” Now, it just happens that the Boston Americans have a bench manager, which may or may not influence Me- Breen’s opinion; but at any rate it s probable that the officials of the New York, Cincinnati and Brooklyn clube in the National.league, and of the Athletics, Detroit, Chicago. and ‘Washington clubs, in the American league would agree with him, The secretaries of the other majar Capt. Bobby Wallace. league teams would probably declare in fator of the playing managers, who are as follows: Chance, Chicago Cubs, first base; Clarke, Pittsburg Pirates, left fleld; Dooin, Phillles, catcher; Bresnahan, st. Louls Oardinals catcher; Tenney, Boston Doves, first base; Chase, Yan- kees, first base; Wallace, St. Louis Browns, shortstop. The whole question is, of course, largely a matter of individuals and personality, and will probably be a Bource for argument as long as the game exists.

One might mention among the reinforcing con- siderations, the marked tendency to a fairer distribution of gifts to christ- ian work. We have been spending over three hundred millions to give stereopticon vividness and perative to the Gospel message as urged upon the one hundred millions born and reared in its light, while less than twelve millions in money to give just a candle light glimmer of the story of God’s love to the six hundred mil- lions born and abiding in the dark- ness of Gospel ignorance.
