The Athletics and Cubs met in the world series of 1910, the American Leaguers, then as now managed by Connie Mach, winning four games to one. The Cubs were commanded by the late Frank Chance. Only Eddie Collins of the present day Athletic roster was with the White Elephants in 1910, and since that time he has been West with Chicago and returned to his first base ball love. Of the stars under Chance’s wing, only one, Johnny Evers, remains in base ball, Connic then had Chief Bender. Jack Coombs and Edide Plank as his pitching aces although Plank did not | appear in the series. Coombs won | in even a minor game, but at least the | three games. The Cubs had some | mreat pitchers, too, including Morde- cai Brown, Orvoll Overall and Ed Reulbach. The Athletics and Cubs have some able moundsmen. If he so wishes Manager Mack can so juggle Grove, Walberg and Earnshaw that they can start all the games between them. Manager Joe McCarthy can counter with Bush, Root and Malone if he feels so inclined, and has the op- portunity.
