By HENRY L. FARRELL (United Press Staff Correspondent.) NEW YORK, Sept. 12.— Arrangements for the 1925 world’s series were made to- day in Philadelphia, the classic to start October 7. No names were mentioned, but it was understood from a source close to the commissioner's white house of baseball that Pittsbursh and Washington were the parties named in the star chamber session, h That mu to be desired mathe- matical oc nty has not been reached but the betting brokers in Wall Street are offering odds that Pittsburgh will win or (for instance) that Pittsburgh will lose, the world series, and when major league pen- nant race reaches that certainty in the financial market, it is time for the fans from the remote dis- tricts to go to work on time tables.

The Pitts- sh club will not take a check or look at it for world’s series tickets ntil it can be shown by @ professor 1etry that the Pirates cannot lose. As the American league pennant race now stands, the Senators must win 13% of their remaining games ‘and the Athletics would have to win all of their next 20 games to the pennant away from them, In the national, the Pittsburgh Pirates can make a Dreyfuss cinch take out of thelr victory by winning twelve out of their 18 remaining games. If they do that well—and they have been doing as well all season— the Giants couldn't overtake them ff they won all of their 16 remaining games. MACK BLAMED. Gautreau Would Have Made Athletics, Is Claim of Some. BY JOHN B. FOSTER (Copyright 1925 Casper Baseball 1anagers are saying that if Connie Mack had retained Gautreau nd bas man whom he took from Holy Cross and passed along to the Boston Na- the tionals, the Athletics would have won the pennant. That's second guess, of course, and baseball is full of it. But they say Gautreau has made the Boston team what {t is and the Boston folks are so full of what he has done for the Infield that there {s little doubt of his re- tention n season.

BROWN Will the nearing world’s series of this year equal that heart-stopping, nerve-wracking, breath-taking series of last? Fans are asking this as the big league race narrows down to the Inst few games. What a whiz that inter-league melee last year proved to be. First of all nothing could have up- Set the baseball world just before the big series more than the O’Con- nel! scandal, One result of this was that the Giants went into the series red with the desire to leave no doubt in the minds of the fans as to-their desires to win legitimately. And the Senators, smarting under the sting of talk that they would meet a taint- ed team, went in with blood in their eyes—anxious to make the victory cisive as possible—to leave no doubt to their elass a champton- ship team under any conditions Then there was the u battle of wits between the managers to chews over. McGraw was given credit for being the king of the master minds, Harris was a new- comer in the school of baseball tech- nique, psychology and whatnot.

Then Roger Peckinpaugh came up, with one out and Joe Judge on second, crashed another double and the game was “in” for Washington, 4 That two-game lead gave Wash- ington what seemed to be a big edge.

According to this wrl- ter Mack hag used interesting means on at least two occasions to check prolonged. slumps. of the team and shape up his team without the usual criticisms such ‘shakeups draw. Two years ago, it {s said, Connie Was drawing frequent pannings for the way his team was skidding when it looked, on paper, to be a good ball club,. Some of this criticlsm, Connie felt, came from members of the team. So he promptly gathered his players together, explained to them that there, had been several hints that he was making egregious errors in handling them and sug: gested that the team run itself for a few day The players agreed to the experiment, but were mighty glad to return the reins to Connie. They lost something lke eleven games in a row. Connie resumed the “management” and proceeded to can the players he belleved had not only played poor ball but had aided the {Ml feeling, There was no comeback whatever fro mthe players involved.
