GIANTS WITHOUT PLAYER ON STELLAR AGGREGATION Vance Again Is Almost Unanimous Choice as Pitcher. Traynor, Wright and Cuyler Are Pirates Chosen—Carey Most Dreaded on Bases. Editor's Note: This is the second of a series of articles giving the results of a vote by the players of the two big leagues Yo pick all-league teams. The American team was published yesterday. The selections made show: many surprises in this sccond annual poll taken among the players. Thic vote was taken for The Star and its associated mewspapers of the Nofs American Newspaper Alliance. In daily articles on this page the vote will be anaiyzed. ( :().\(}"IL.\TI()X of the vote of National League players for the all- National League team shows that in the older major circuit only two changes were made from those of the poll taken last year. Long George Kelly, first-sacker of the Giants, is dropped to the second team by the players, while Bottomley of St. Louis is elevated to the all- ond demotion by this jury is that of Young, er, the brilliant Pittsburgh star aggregation.

Ross Younz ot the Giants can find some consolation for his drop from the premier selec- tfons, as he was rated the best man to cover the right field sector on both | cond and third team «Hartnett of the Chi o Cubs was not: only the miajority choice of the plavers for the receiving end of the battery, but many ranked him for the gecond ‘and third teams, so that he led on all three selecti . H Rogers Hornsby of the.C: was an easy ch for the key location, with his teammate Bottom- ley also making the all-star grade. the outfleld Zack Wheat of Brooklyn afid Roush of Cincinnati were award- ed the star roles for the second suc- cessive year without question. "Looking at the result of the vote by | teams, it shows Pittsburgh increasing | its quota with three all-stars as against two last year. St. Louls gains a'berth by the players’ choice of Bot- tomley. Brooklyn retains her hold with Vance and Wheat, while Chicago and Cincinnati keep a foothold on the all-star stage with one each. The Giants are entirely out of the spotlight of the first pickings. Hornsby Most Dreaded. ZIn a pinch, when a timely tap is reeded to put a game on the_ sheif, it is Rogers Hornsby of the Cardinals hom the majority of the National Teague players dread the most, ac- cording to the separate ballots cast in answer to this question. Not all the players were agreed in this, as Bot- thmley also received a large number of votes as evidence of his ability to wield a wicked “ash” in a pinch Max Carey of the Plrates was voted the most dangerous man on the bases, and very little difference of opinion existed among the large majority of the voters. Cuyler and Roush drew a few votes each for this honor. Only ofie player regarded Frankie Frisch a8 the most dangerous man on the sacks. *Taken from all angles, the all-Na- tional League team is a formidable dpe. How would it make out in a stiff serles with the all-American team? With the alrtight pitching of Wance backed by flawless fielding and & hammering offense it should offer the fans a history-making battle if pitted against the all-American gue stars. ¢ (Tomosrow—The detailed vote for the e ‘selections on the All-American and with two mati dnd Only five Louf su- I-National teams and an analysis of the voting.)

The scene was Hollywood, Fla season. The occasion was a best ball — 4CO YARDS T was Hagen and Kirkwood against Sarazen and Diegel, and “The great Australian trick-shot artist to , the time mid-Winter of the 1924-25 foursome of the Florida Golf League. Sarazen and Diegel had been showing their heels to all their rivals and the gaily garbed gallery seeing them trailing thus sadly, couldn’t under stand it at all. Then, quite suddenly; the struggle assumed an entirely different aspect. Gene and Leo. streaked brilliantly forward with a_serles of plays that brought them' abreast of Walter. and Joe. What had caused this sudden re- versal? This was the question I put to Leo Diegel. “Well, it's this way,” he replied. “In many a golf match the result is determined long before the finish, even when it is necessary to play to the final green to find it out. “You might call it the turning point, it you wish. But somewhere along the line one of the contestants knows the odds to be faced are too | great, or else that victory is possible. One play alone may alter the entire psychology of the situation. “Take this match with Hagen and Kirkwood. 3 Were Two Down. “We had played only four holes when it scemed as if Gene and would be completely snowed unde Coming to the fifth tee we were down - “Now if Walter and Joe won the pext hole, putting us 3 fhey would have an edge that we would have a terrible time overcom- ing. “At the start of play on the fifth | hole, which measures 400 yasds, we played worse golf than we had shown on the previous holes. * “Hagen hit a whale of a tee shot. Sarazen and Kirkwood drove far be- hind him. As for me, I pushed my ball away off to the right, behind a big tree. “To make matters worse, Sarazen hooked his second shot at a time when it appeared that it would be up to him to hold our opponents even. His ball went into rough off to the left of the green, so that only a mir- acle would permit him to.get par 4. “Hagen and Kirkwood each made Tt the green in two, 20 feet from the cup. - ‘Well, my ball lay a full 220 yards from the flag, and after I had looked over the tree that stymied me I real- ized ‘there was no possible chance for me to play my second within speak- ing distance of the green. The tree was tall and wide, with branches that swept the ground. L could neither figok nor slice around it, nor shoot over or under. To play into the fair- | way to its left would net almost no | distance. . | Noticed Low Shed. “At this point I took note of a low shed extending a bit beyond the tree and 15 yards to the right. Per- haps it was because 1 was playing with a trick-shot artist like Joe Kirk- ‘wood. Anyhow the thought came to me that if 1 could shoot my ball off | the side of that shed I might be able |to billiard it past the tree and get |into a good position well up the fair- | | way. | "It was my only chance and 1 took Using on iron, I played a low shot that glanced off the wall per- | fectly and came back to the fairw: ¢ ball was still 125 yards from but I was filled with confi- ! ter my successful billiarding. | Using full mashie I laid my ball stone “dead to the cup. In fact, I | nearly holed it. It grazed the cup as it passed to stop two feet beyond. | “Hagen and Kirkwood were each down in four and I holed my short one for a half. Gene took a five. “It, was wonderfully heartening not to have lost that hole. Instead of being 3 down we were only 2 down. Filled with new pep, we { salled in and won two of the next | three holes with a birdie and an eagle, halving the other one. That squared the match. After that there was no stopping us. - We finally won out, 5 and 4. Making the proper lay lat a crucial moment was largely re- | sponsible.” ’ (Copyright, 1925.) | the I denc ROD AND STREAM BY PERRY MILLER. HE latest announcement irom placing fish racks in the Tidal T the Bureau of Fisheries in regard to Basin to prevent the escape of game fish is to the effect that no work will be done this Fall, but that in February or March of next year, after the ice has disappeared and the vegetation has been killed by cold weather and ice the racks will be in- stalled and the water then seined to get rid of all fish classed as “undesir- ables” by the bureau officials, who will detail several of its best men to superintend this work. Then will come the biggest and most particular part of the project, stocking the basin with large and small mouth bass, rock bass, crappie and sunfish. Glen C. Leach, head of fish culture of the bureau, told the writer that he intends to plant a certain number of small mouth bass in the basin and that he thinks they will be just about as much at home as the large mouth bass, as certain places of the basin’s bottom are covered with rocks. 400 Subscribers Needed. According to cold figures there are hundreds of anglers in the District of Columbia possessed of the desire to fish and elaborate equipment with which to fish who won't risk one dol- lar on a surefire proposition spon- sored by the best experts that this country can produce. Unless about 400 more fishermen are willing to peel one “ome” off their rolls they will be putting the burden where it does not belong, on shoulders that have already done more than their share, and, if their consclences are thelr guldes, can hereafter only call themselves “fishermen” and “anglers” but not “sportsmen.” An amount of $542.75 was turned over to Col. Clarence O. Sherrill last week, being the sum subscribed by local anglers after a six months’ cam- paign to raise $1,000 through public subscription. If it had not been for the assistance of Col. Sherrill in get- ting the Joint Welfare Service to con- tribute $1,000 toward this project, the undertaking would perhaps have been a dismal faflure. But, thanks to the anglers who have sent in their dona- tions and to the Joint Welfare Service, the project will go through. Whether or not the anglers donate the balance due of $460 the project will be success- ful, but. after consulting with many of the local anglers and getting their opinion that the $1,000 asked for could and would be raised through public subscriptien, it is very embarrassing, 1o say the least, to have to admit that after six months only a little over half of #t is in hand and to continue to beg for the rest. ‘The salt-water anglers after a more or less successful three months of fishing seem to have just commenced to really have what might be called “real fishing.” Catches of 100 fish are constantly reported from various fishing grounds on the bay and in the Potomac River. The best and most consistent catches are reported made on the bay between Herring Bay and ‘Thomas Point Light, where the rock fish, weighing from one to four pounds, have been furnishing the ex- citement to a host of local anglers. ‘Thursday of last week John F. Mactarlane of Cumberland, Md., and R. J. Moore and John W. Hurley went to West River and caught so many fish that they returned again on Fri- day. Their catch consisted of hard- heads, trout and rock. Not to be outdone by their salt- v;ngr r):huvan. the big-mouth bass of the lower Pom:u: in the Virginia and Maryland creeks have been fur- nishing excellent sport for anglers. There must be something doing in the fishing line off Hains Point, be- cause on lagt Thursday the writer saw seven or éight boats lying off the polat h all hands on board fishing. In past’seasons this fishing ground off the point has been a mighty good place for the late seasonm rockfishing. Despite the th: weather of last Sunday the National Military and Sport Shop on its annual excursion to esapeake Beach took down about 100 anglers, and all were rewarded with fairly good catches of hard- heads, rock and trout, The prizes were awarded as follow Largest trout, 3 pounds, landed by C. O. Shepard of 5510 Wisconsin ave- nue, who won a complete salt-water outfit. Largest hardhead, 2% pounds, was won by Bill Bailey of Soldiers’ Home, who was presented with a Mohawk reel. The largest rockfish, weighing only one-lalf pound, was landed by D. R. Hansley, 603 1 street northwest, who took for his prize a landing net. The women's prize, a hardhead weighing 11z pounds, was won by Mrs. J. L. Dickerson, who was presented with 100 yards of Ilinen line for her efforts. Mrs. Dickerson carried off two of the prizes offered by the Poto- mac Anglers’ Association at the same place on the previous Sunday. Although no prize was offered for the greatest number of fish caught by any one member on the outing, Bill Balley proved himself to be the best fisherman of the day with a catch of 60 pounds of big hardheads. 16. DRIVERS T0 RACE IN GRIND AT LAUREL For the second time within a few months, a motor race classic of na- tional importance, in which America's leading speed demons will participate, will be staged next Saturday at the Baltimore-Washington speedway, near Laurel. Sixteen daredevil drivers will vie for points toward the 1926 cham- plonship and for a $25,000 purse. Included in the line-up of speedway stars will be Peter De Paolo; leading claimant for this year's title and win- ner of the first Laurel race; Bob Mc- Donough, Harry Hartz, third place winner in the {inaugural event at Laurel; Tommy Milton, 1921 champion; Fred Comer, Earl Cooper, Bennie Hill, Leon Duray, Jerry Wonderlich, Dr. ‘Willlam Shattuc and others who have made motor racing history. The drivers and their cars will begin arriving tomorrow from Salem, N. H., where they competed yesterday on the new Rockingham board speedway. Qualifying runs for the forthcoming event will be held Thursday and Fri- day, when every driver will be re- quired to circle the glant bowl four consecutive times at 110 miles an hour. The 110-mile minimum is re- quired in order to give assurance that the car can stick to the almost per- pendicularly inclined banks. The place winners, in addition to championship points, will receive the following prizes: First, $9,000; second, $5.500; -third, $3,000; fourth, $2,00 fitth, $1,350; sixth, $1,000; seventh, 900; eighth, $800; ninth, $750, and tenth; $750. Every driver who ¥nters the race, whether he qualifies or not, will receive a guarantee of $500. Preparations are being made by the speedway officials to handle a crowd of 60,000 spectators. The arena within the track has been leveled and graded since the last race to accommodate approximately 10,000 automobiles from which their occupants may view the race. A new roadway is being constructed from the speedway prop- erty to the Baltimore-Washington boulevard to expedite the flow of traf- fic to ana from the track. Followers of the sport will have an- other opportunity to see Fred Wag- ner, who will be official starter. Rob- ert B, Gable of Altoona will be referee. The event is scheduled for 2 p.m. Special trains will run ‘wnhmstcn. SIX OF LEADING PLAYERS FROM WESTERN STATES American Champion Ranks With Joyce Wethered as World’s Best Fair Sex Shot on Links—Mrs. Fraser in Second Place. i BY RAY McCARTHY. EW YORK, October 17.—Chiefly significant in the writer’s survey of women’s national golf in 1925 stands the fact of the extraord- inary development of outstanding abilify in the Middle West. Only a few years ago most of the excellent woman golfers were to be found along the Atlantic seaboard, principally in the vicinity of New York, Boston and Philadelphia. _ So marked has been the recent change in this situation that a selec- tion of the first 10 woman golfers of the United States, based by the writer upon a combination of\ the records and performances in various tournaments throughout the entire season, includes only two Eastern women—unless Mrs. Alexa Stirling Fraser, a Southern product, now a resident of Toronto, Canada, be regarded as a representative of this sec- tion.

Transvaal won the Grand Prix de Paris at Paris in 1924 at the unpre- cedented odds of 125 to 1. Forest, a French bred gelding, won the Cesarewitch Stakes, and Trans- vaal was nowhere.

SUITS and O’COATS “Tailored to Order $35 to 50 Quality, Workmanship and Fit Guaranteed Leading Woman Golfers. The 10 leading women golfers for 1925, as selected by this writer, are as follows: Glenna Collett, Providence. Mrs. Alexa Stirling Fraser, Toronto. Edith Cummings, Chicago. Louise Fordyce, Youngstown. Mrs. Dorothy Campbell Hurd, adelphia. Brown: EE SR Phil- [ Los Angeles. Sterrett, Hutchimson, Kans. Dorothy Klotz, Chicago. Bernice Wall, Oshkosh, Wi Mrs. F. C. Letts, Chicago. There is ljttle difficulty in deter mining the first four in this group, as they arc the outstanding woman golfers of America, but those selected in the next cluster are nearly on a par, and the order of their ranking is not so {mportant as the fact that they are in the “first 10." Four Newcomers. these players found their the writer's ranking last newcomers being Mrs Fraser, Mrs. Sterrett, Miss Klotz and Mrs. Letts. Those who dropped out to make way for them were Marion Hollins, Mirfam Burns (now Mrs. George Horn), Mrs. Clarence Vander- beck and Audrey Faust. There is no dispute of the award of first place to Miss Collett. She again proved herself the premier woman golfer in America. Her per- formance in Florida, in England, in France and in America during the year were remarkable, and her amaz ing display in the final of the national champlonship placed her even with Joyce Wethered for the right to be | called the greatest woman golfer in | the world. | In that final match against Mrs. | Fraser, Glenna shot a game that would have defeated many masculine amateurs and a large number of the leading professionals. Miss Collett fairly cleaned up in the Southern tournaments, went into the final for the British title, and carried back to the United States the French championship. On her return she re- gained the American queenship, play- ing better than at any time during the entire year. Mrs. Fraser’s Merit. Mrs. Fraser is entitled to second place on her showing in the national championship. She was the medal winner, and came through several hard matches to reach-the final. Con- sidering that she was playing com- petitive golf for the first time in two years, Mrs. Fraser really made an astonishing “comeback.” ~Miss Cum-| mings must be placed third on her fighting qualities and her consistently good game. The most improved woman golfer of the vear is Miss Fordyce, who jump- ed from ninth place in the 1924 rat- ing to fourth position this year. She | was one of the few of her sex to score in_the low 70s during the yeas. Mrs. Hurd is awarded fifth place because of her exceptional work in the early tournaraents of the year in the South, and in the minor tournaments during the rest of the season. Miss Brown, pecullarly, Is again placed sixth. Her game is still good, but shows little improvement. The remaining four play almost an even game and during the year returned star performances on occasion.

In order to stimulate interest in a membership drive the Members’' All- Age Stake has been given the prefer ence in this meet. This stake is open only to members of the local club, and the fact that the more experi- enced dogs in this stake will have a chance at the quail before they have been scattered by the younger Derby dogs should have its effect in boost ing the club membership. The Derby and Open All-Age Stakes will be run | in their usual order.
