We refer in particular to a certain citizen who wagered rather heavily that the St. Louis Browns wouldn't finish in the first division. For 1917. Captain T. L. Huston and Colonel Jacob Ruppert, of the New York Yankees, are drafting a rccommenda- tion for the American league, to be- gin in 1917. Their scheme is to raise the player limit from 25 men to 62. At the 25 limit they ran out of talent before August. With the list lifted to 65 they can flgure on at least nine survivors for the September dash. Another Tip. We suggest another scheme for | 1917. Unless Connie Mack changes his line-up, why not make Connie di- vide his 154 games equally among the other seven clubs, giving each team 22 victories to start with? Then, in place of wasting useful afternoons on the date each club was booked to meet the Athleti the players could take three or four days off for golf or the movies. That American League Stampede. You can pick up all the opinions two or three strong men can carry about the final outcome of the Amer- fcan league jamboree. What next week may other matter, but today the White Sox and the Red Sox are the two favored clubs and the championship !is likely to be settled in their own personal conflicts. | The White Sox have the better of the schedule, with a long home finish ahead, but even this will not be suf- hold is an- ficient unless Commy's team can hold the world champs well scotched at this week's meeting. Having tested the succulent dict of world series kale in 1912 and 1915, the Red Sox have no present desire to pass up the dish. If they can overthrow their main ri- vals this coming weelk will not be any harder to catch with a home series at hand than two or three lank coyote: who have just decided to run. The New Diet.

Wagner's Successor. Since Hans Wagner reached the age of sedateness the next best bats- man in the National league for a ten-year stretch has been Larry Doyle, with a mark of .297. Jake Daubert has been the leading factor for a five-year average, but the Wagnerian successor now looks to be Dave Robertson. Dave today is the premier swatsmith of his cir- cuit, and as he is young, fast and powerful, with a natural wallop and a steady eye, it begins to appear that the National league at last has found a Ty Cobb of its own. Robertson certainly is the closest thing to Cobb that the old circuit has produced barring, of course, the immortal Honus, who was a Ty Cobb to no league, but a Hans Wagner to the world.
