Strategist of the Athletics Will Soon Be Back for 1911 Campaign. Connle Mack's start from Europe for his home grounds and another season with the world’s champions is booked for next Saturday. Mack signed some of his stars before going away. He got Eddie Collins’ signature to three ¥year contract and landed some of his other props, savs a Philadelphia ex- change. It is the intention of the Athletics to move to Savannah about March 1. In addition to Bender, Coombs, Morgan, Plank, Krause, Dygert, Russell, Atkins, | Davis, Houser, Collins, Barry, Baker, Mclnnes, Derrick, Oldring, Murph: Hartsel,” Lord, Strunk, Thomas, Liv- ingston, Lapp and Donohue, Mack will carry a number of callow youths with him. Besides being a championship mana- ger, Mack is a bascball broker and always carries a carload of youngsters with him for purposes of specul: even if he doesn’'t want them. Some Promising Fledglings. But even a world’s championship outfit can strengthen, and Mack is cer- tain to give sincere trials to a number of the bushers. In the list the most | promising fledgkings are Hogan, the California wonder, who can play any position in the infleld and outfield, and | O'Neill, the 18 year old catcher of the Elmira’ team of the New York State league, who is rated as a comer. ‘The Athletics obtained O'Neill by draft and the Elmira club attempted to forestail Mack’s draft by releasing him. outright and then expecting to sizn him agaln, Mack saw through the trick and appealed to the nationel commis sion, which promptly awarded the youthful receiver to the world's cham- plons. John Shibe, the Athletics’ paymaster, declared yesferday that Lefty Russell who shut out the common enemy in| the only game he pitched for M. | Mack last season, was mot & malcon- | tent. Lefty lives on the eastern sh of Maryland and will send his contract to Philadelphia as soon as Connie re- turns.

There is a possibility that Mack may decide to bolster his outfield in hitting by switching~ Baker to the subi and using the useful McInnes at thi but it is only a possibility. It is a fact that McInnes is too good a ball player to wear out his lifeson the bench, but it must be. remembered that he is a young chap and will get his chance to shine or polish sooner or later. No Problem in Outfield. The outfleld doesn’t offer much of a problem after all. It must be remem- bered that the Athletics entered the world’s ‘series minus the services of dependable cleanup hitters, and with Strunk playing center, although he had not fully recovered from injuries that kept him out of the game for the greater part of the season. Both Oldring and Strunk are now sound of limb and will be in perfect condition for the opening game in April. Murphy Has Right Field Cinched. ~ Dan Murphy will not be disturbed in right fleld. Murphy hasn't a_single weakness, vet he does not receive the press notices that inferior players in other cities g Dan js a heavy hitter and his swats generally come Wwith brother Mackmen on the paths, while he is a wonderful ground coverer and a lightning thrower: More than that, he is-a natural ball player and always does the correct thing at the right time. For good work, day-in and day out, there is no right fielder in the two leagues who surpasses the neglected Dan. After Detroit_ewlitched Ty Cobb to center and put Crawford "in right, Connie Mack declared that he wouldn't trade Murphy for any two right fielders in the country. Then there is Topsy Hartsel, who scored two runs, stole two bases and stole a liner out of the crowd in the only game in which he took part in the world’s series, and Bris Lord. Both are men of experience and must be considered. With this wealth of ma- terial, Connle is not worrying about the makeup of his outfield. REVISE WRESTLING RULES. Bar Dangerous Holds and Cut Out Unnecessary Roughness. Dire need of a revisfonr of the wrest- ling rules and the issuing of a new code for the grappling game is the argument put up by a Chicago writer, who condemns much of the hippo droming methods which he says have brought the game into disfavor in | America. He makes some suggestions Both contestants should be stripped soled gymnasium_ shoes. There are a few grappers in this country who wear trunks and absolutely nothing else. Their legs, pefspiring nearly as much as the rest of their body, are hard to work on, whereas, if the other man wears tights, it is easier to get a grip | on_his propellers. The men should have their finger nails trimmed close enough to prevent even accidental ratching, because any mat is simply a breeding ground of germs and numerous cases of blood poisoning have followed injuries that b ted In an aprasion of thel Should Bar Dangerous Holds. A strangle lock should be defined a any hold that brings pressure directly on the neck where both arnis are ! used, whether the hands happen to be lockéd or not. This would preclude not only all. forms of strangles, but many forms of the &hancery hold. The barred G toe hold should b the possible injury to knees and thighs. Any hold should be ruled out that Seels to bend a joint against it- | self. This is where most of the injur- | es of the mat come in. Any hold or lock should he barred that is used,| purely to torture an oppoment, ai though any hold that has as its object | the legitimate weakening of the other man should be aligwed. In this latter case many of the leg holds, body holds and bar-nelsons would be included. One man should be permitted, pro- vided he is able, to pick another one off-the mat and slam him down, if he doesn’t throw him off the mat or over the ropes. Tt is true that in some | of the rushes one of the wrestiers wi %o through the ropes and that some of these aceidents are unavoidable. Brutality is Unnecessary. Al unfair tactics should never be entitled to more than one warning for the entire match. The referee should never be called upon to repeatediy caution a grappler for the methods he is employing. If a wrestler bites, stiikes, gouges or fouls in any other way the referee should have full pow- er "to disqualify him and give not the other man. This would not onlv top to the actual and uncalled | sometimes mani- | fest. but it would also make very dif- ficult the operations of the four-flush grappler. Wrestelrs should not be permitted to wear any apparatus on their arms, wriste or fingers. If a contesant is in such shape that he needs a brace on’ any part of his body he should not be permitted to go on. Pin Falls 8hould Count. It is impossible to regulate matches ! according to the weight of the oppos- | ing forces. A little man might be more than e match for a big man, and the . | discretion of the matchmakers them- | selves is the only criterion to be fol- | lowed. Falls should all be of the pin | with both shoulders heid to multaneously for a sufficient | the mat | length of time for the referee to ab- | solutely decide that the fall has been | fairly gained. This he can only do by feeling under thie down man with one of his bands. The duration of this process of pinning the shoulders to the mat need not continue for more than a second.

One Was to the cftect that Lynch inte to his “indicator ha different National league teams on spring ining - trips =o, that they might have a chance to get into con- dition for the.coming season. “I think our umpires get all thel preliminary practice they need,” said Lynch, “In officiating at college games and at local series, for instance, like that between the Philadelphia, National and American league clubs.
