Barragar, r., and F. Boyle; the second team Customers Stay Away Mack’s 52 years or baseball ex- {perience isn't much help when it comes to learning exactly what the Philadelphia fans want in the way of a ball team—if anything. He broke up his greatest ball clubs, his 1914 and 1929 championship teams, because the local fans were tired of seeing the club win. Last season, with a team that occupied the cellar, the clicking of the turn- stiles died down to a whisper. Hav- {ing further weakened his Athletics |by the sales to Boston, Connie may well expect to have the ball |park all to himself. At 73, Mack insists he is start- 'ing to build another pennant win- |ner. It took him 15 years to get back to the top of the pile after Ihe wrecked his 1914 champions. Add {15 onto his 73 and that would give | Connie another winner at 88! Mack 1may still be managing the club at 88 but the odds are against him. It would be interesting to know }Conme‘s thoughts as he sits back |in the shade of the dugout watch- ing teams like Boston and Detroit ;lighting it out for the pennant, |teams that have been bolstered by the very men who won champion- iships for him a few years ago. Of |course he has the money—or had lit. at least—but -he wouldn't be |human if his thoughts didn't go |back to the good old days, back in 1929 when his Athletics beat the Chicago Cubs for the world title. They're Still Around It is interesting to note that all but three of the regulars of the 1929 world champion Athletics are still starring in the big leagues. Bishop, Boley and Miller have pass- ed out of the big show as far as regular playing is concerned. But the others, Mickey Cochrane, Lefty J. Halm, R. R.

Lyons weigh- ed 170 pounds and Myers tipped the scales at 160 pounds. Lyons, who is from Tacoma, won the first fall by a combined arm- lock and headlock; Myers, formerly light-heavyweight champion of southern Washington, took the sec- cnd fall with the same hold; and Lyons captured the deciding fall in four and one-half minutes with leg split. A preliminary match between Bliss Harper and Chet Moore end- ed in a draw with one fall to the credit of each. Several youngsters, who also appeared on the program in wrestling exhibitions, were re- | warded with showers of coins. Ralph Parker, former gymnasium manager 'and wrestling referee of | Virginia, refereed all matches. e e - MUSICAL PROGRAM TG!
