It was Mack's greatest pride, though he enjoyed more personal satisfac- tion in piloting another world’s cham- pionship club 15 years later. It was the foremost example of his organiz- ing genius, though its break-up in 1914 was @ bitter blow to him. “It may sound egotistical, but the Athletics were the greatest team of all time, because they had longer to go than any of the other famous ma- chines in baseball,” Mack wrote in 1915. “When the team was broken up it could have gone along winning pen- nants for about five more years had not a combination of circumstances compelled me to tear apart a team that it took much effort to put to- gether.” The nucleus of this world-beating Keep Pace With Cards, Who/Standing P=FEE Be combination was a pitching trio fa- mous for all time—Colby Jack Coombs, Crossfire Eddie Plank and Chief Charles Albert Bender, the In- dian of whom Mack once told me: “He was the greatest ‘one-game’ pitcher I ever knew. I used to tell the Chief to get ready to pitch on a certain date. He grunted assent. I might not see him for days, but on the appointed date he would appear, ready and fit, usually unbeatable. “Bender's only bad habit on the mound was @ tendency to relax when he felt he had the opposition under control. At such moments Harry Davis used to walk over from first- base, berate the Chief in good, old- fashioned language. Thus admon- ished, the Indian would bear down again,” ‘The forthcoming champions gave a Campolo Hopes to | Get Recognition | In Sharkey F ight Giant Argentine Is Underdog, | However; Not as Good a Man as Firpo Was New York, Sept, 23—()—Victorio |} Campolo, whose attempts to emulate the spectacular feats of his compa- | triot, Luis Angel Firpo, have met with failure so far, gets his big chance to crash his way into the list of out- contenders Sharkey et the Yankee stadium, but experts are predicting he will muff it.

Before-hand, Mack's team was considered a joke, and a contemporary scribe wrote: “For catchers he (Mack) had only material that other managers had turned down. Death robbed him of his star backstop, ‘Doc’ Powers, at the opening of the struggle, and he had to depend on Ira Thomas, whom Hugh Jennings (Manager of Detroit) had discarded. His infield boasted one veteran, Harry Davis at first. Baker at third, Nicholas at short and Collins at second all were practically novices. In the outfield his two vet-. erans, Hartsel and Danny Murphy, were reputed to be ‘going back.’ “The wise ones called it ‘baseball luck’ when the team started smoothly and predicted they would blow. But somehow they didn’t. “Nichols, the shortstop, was re- Placed at the end of the college sea- son by Barry, just out of Holy Cross, who immediately made good. Baker, the tyro at third, was breaking up games with his trusty bat. Collins, the guardian of second, was the admiration of opponents by his brilliant work in every department. He was even threatening to wrest the batting honors from the mighty Cobb. “How do they do it? There is but one answer—the baseball brains of Connie Mack?” With no vital alterations, the Ath- letics rose to the top in 1910 with an irresistible display of power, featured by the work of the pitching Three” and the sensational quartet that later became famous as the $100,000 infield.

These Athletics were the first to adapt the deaf-mute finger language for rapid transmission of signals. They practiced in the dining room, carrying on elaborate conversations in sign language, to the complete amazement of onlookers. “Stealing” enemy signals was an- other habit of these wily Mackmen.
