The Reds started out like hey were going to be tough, scoring hree runs in the first inning and iriving Ray Moss from the mound, nut the Robins were out after the yame and a chance to increase their ead over the idle Cardinals. Red Lucas, ace of the Reds’ hurling taff, went the way of Moss as Brook- yn tallied six times in their half of he first session. There would have yeen one more run if Glen Wright, vho bounced a home run. into the jleachers, had not overrun Babe ierman on the base paths. As it was, Wright was declared out and got redit for only a single. After the irst inning the Brooklyn sluggers sept peppering away, rolling up a de- ded advantage while Watson Clark, Moss’ successor, was holding the Reds check. “| The Cubs lost a chance to gain taluable ground when they split a ‘toubleheader with Philadelphia, the Phillies taking the opening slugfest “\2 to 11, and Chicago accounting for he nightcap 6 to 4 after Hack Wilson . ad pounded out his fiftieth home run jpf the season. Lefty O’Doul’s home Ha with one out in the ninth and the score knotted at 11 decided the xciting opener. Guy Fush performed yrilliantly on the mound to give the tubs the second. Heathcote hit a home jun in each game for the Cubs, while Mnglish and O’Doul also connected vith homers.

Fame as & manager has almost ob- scured Mack’s playing days and the fact that he was a catcher of first- rate major league calibre. He finished his active duty in Mil- waukee, where he was player-manager of the club representing the Wiscon- sin city in the Western league and for one year, 1900, in the newly formed | the American league, before going to Phil- adelphia in 1901. From the day he put the new Ath- leties on the field in the junior major league Mack never again donned a uniform, nor has he ever directed his team from anywheré but one end of the bench. Back in East Brookfield, his home town, Mack became the catcher of the local amateur team because he ‘was game and willing. backstop, then as now, was the pivotal point for strategy and defense. Mack, then as now, was quick to size up sit- uations, quick to act. The quality of quiet leadership seemed born in him. East Brookfield’s nine was the first championship team Mack had any- thing to do with. It won the. “pel nant” in the amateur league of mill. towns in central Massachusetts. that the silver bat, emblematic of the eoroooconones Kelly, 1b Farrell* Hartnett, ¢ D. Taylor’ ll, 3b. Stephenso!

Philadelphia— ABR HPOAE eooocosHoomm eroccoumocee eooescooosco es CONNIE MACK victory, still rested in the town fire- jouse. ‘The fame of East Brookfield’s team grew. Likewise its chestiness. The boys who hung around the firehouse of an evening were told so often they ‘were good that they began to believe it themselves. By 1883, when Mack was 21 and able to vote the next year for Grover Cleveland, the East Brookfield club was bold enough to challenge Wor- cester, then just taxen into the Na- tional league fold, for an exhibition contest. The big leaguers won, of course, but shoetown boys satisfied them- selves they could mix in this kind of company. A\ ly, the more am- bitious spirits sought to attract the famous Chicago Colts, Pop Anson's champions, to the little Massachusetts town for another exhibition. The Chicagoans demanded a substantial guarantee—something like $250. It looked a trifle dubious, but hometown pride rose to the emergency. The money was raised, the Colts came and - Moreover, the | dazzled. “I recall that even quite vividly,” said Mack years later. “It was a holi- day for us all, The big leaguers Swaggered about, and we were all much impressed and very serious.

His father had died earlier, the family, but the financial oppor- tunities in_ baseball seemed so far superior to those of an ordinary shoe- worker that it did not take long for the family council to decide what was most advantageous. The trade lost @ good cobbler, but baseball gained ‘a master mind. After finishing the 1884 season with Meriden, Mack went to the Hartford team in 1885 and quickly attracted the attention of major league scouts by his clever backstopping. A year later he was among five Hartford players purchased by the Ws club, then in the Nation- al league, for $3,500, a big amount for talent at that time.

At this stage of the season, it ap- pears likely that Dale Brown, red head guard of the 1929 eleven, be Posted at center. McLeod always has liked to have one of his strongest men at the pivot, and Brown appears the lad to fill the bill. Lloyd Murphy probably has an edge on the guard candidates for one post, with John Davis and Joe Woodman- see fighting it out for the other, Gus Schlickenmeyer, who saw service often last fall, and Lester Burton also will make it tough for those who would be regulars at guard.

Wade Green, 1929 reserve end, John Allen, another newcomer, and Gilbert Benzon, dash star last spring, however, are definitely in the battle and will see plenty of service. Potter Fullback Henry Potter appears the class of the fullback candidates. He is the best line smasher on the squad and played a whale of a game last fall whenever ‘called upon. He is husky and runs interference well. He has possibilities of developing into a good kicker, though Dale Brown is the best kicker on the squad at present.
