X i 7v Athletic Leader Is Considered Best Baseball Tactician. . MANY CHAMPIONSHIPS WON Rising From Place on Team of Shoe Factory Employes, Pnlladelphlan Is Now Half-Owner of Best Playing Team In World. Cornelius Mcailllcuddy, half owner of the World's championi and the man who made the team, is now in his fifty-first year. All but 16 of those years have been passed in Inti mate association with baseball. Cornelius McGllUcuddy, whose name has been changed by kindly custom to "Connie Mack," was born In East Brookfleld, Mass., where his father was a wheelwright. When IT years old Connie went to work In a shoe factory. Mack began playing with the factory team and was catcher on the nine when It won the championship of Mas sachusetts. This taste of victory was too much for Mack. He already had a strong liking for the game and quit his Job to take up baseball as a profession. He applied to Merlden, but just a lit tle bit too late. Connie tried several other teams but had to go back to the job In the factory as baseball mate rial seemed too prolific One day Mack received a hurry call that Merlden was crippled and that he was to Join the team at once. He did not finish his day's work as a cutter. . He caught William Hogan on the day of his arrival and went on the payroll at $30 a month. In 1885 Connie signed with Hartford as there was no reserve clause and Merlden was slow In deciding whether or not It could support a team. Later It decided and won first In the league while Hartford took second. In those days Connie was not a great clean-up hitter. He was usual ly steady and a great catcher. In September 1886 Mack was sold to Washington, where he worked three years. Then came the brotherhood war and he took a chance with Buf falo. In 1891 he signed with Pitts burg and served six seasons, acting as manager the last two. In 1897 Mack became manager of the Milwaukee team of the old West ern League. He became part owner of the Athletics in 1901. He has since Increased his holdings until, he now owns half the club. He won league pennants in 1902, 1905, 1910, 1911 and 1913. He won the world's series In 1910, 1911 and 1913. Mack Is considered the greatest baseball tactician of his time. He sits quietly on the bench and directs the game. His players rarely quarrel with umpires. Mack never does. He does not overlook any of the legiti mate tricks of baseball, but he Is a good sportsman. THREE HUNTERS ARRESTED Deputy Wardens Charge Violations of Game Laws, Deputy Game Wardens Irwin and Truesdale yesterday arrested William Gray and George Detrie on the Colum bia boulevard on charges of shooting birds protected by law.

And then the Athletics came along and overthrew the entire flimsy struc ture. They proved in this- series, as In former world's baseball tilts, that the team with the good old ash wagon tongue behind it has two chances to the weak hitters' one. As Ty Cobb pointed out prior to the series: "It Is not hard to see that the Mack pitchers, weak as they have appeared at times, will have an easier time hold ing the weak appearing hitters of the Giants than the New York crack twirl ers will have against the slugging Mackmen." While the receipts of the series fell far below those of the two preceding world's titular clashes, that was be cause only five games were played as against eight for 1912 and six for 191L The 1913 receipts of $326,980 far ex ceeded the moneys that accrued from the 1910 series between the Athletlca and the Chicago Cubs. Five games were played that Fall and the receipts were only $174,000. Last season's $490,833 looms up like a battleship alongside the $325,980 taken in during the 1913 series, but. an attendance average discloses that there was little falling off In the crowd. The average attendance In 1912 was 31,504 and in 1913 30,200. Of the ten world's championship bat tles the American League has won six. the Nationals four. The total attend ance for the ten years has been 1,281, 901; the total receipts, $2,048,470. The records of all past world's series are appended, as follows: Year . Att'd'ee. Receipts.

Under the itinerary arranged the Giants and the White Sox leave Chicago October 18 and sail from Van couver, B. C, November 19. In the Interim the two major clubs will stage exhibitions along the route, but Portland, unfortunately. Is to be passed up. Comlskey wanted a guar antee of $1000 and the lion's share of the receipts and W. W. McCredle couldn't see him for haze. Only two games will be played In the Northwest, under present schedule. Tacoraa gets a morning matinee for November 18 and Seattle an afternoon exhibition the same day. The scientist who originally drafted the schedule must have learned his geograpny in a boiler shon for he had the two clubs playing in Oakland on November 16 and In Tacoma the next afternoon. The railroad people likely called Co mlskey's attention to the fact that these two cities are two days apart, ror tne rearrangement calls for the Tacoma game a day later. After visiting japan, cnina, Aus tralia. Egypt,' Italy. France, Germany, Holland, England, Scotland and Ireland the big leaguers are booKea to arrive back in New York March 6. Sporting Sparks THE city cnampionsnip series Be tween the Cubs and the White Sox was almost as much of a bonanza as thA middle ring of the circus. The biggest attendance was on Wednesday, when 29,360 persons bought tickets. Rnh McAllltser. the ex-Olympic Club star, and his manager, Al McAllister, think there Is more money In brain work than fighting. Their stock in trade at present Is an Invention which they will market in tne iast. u ne two passed through Portland Saturday on their way to New York. Bob Is not expected to do any fighting while away from home. Notre Dame University is feeling the effects of a football strike. Several nlavers participated In a football dem onstration and were ejected from school with the result that tne omer piayers refused to play any more games In the schedule. The faculty and the students are still at loggerheads. The sale of the Indianapolis ball team to Denver magnates fell through. The ter of deferred payments. Buck O'Brien. ex-Red Sox pitcher now with Oakland. Is seriously consid ering quitting baseball. He has for some time been tempted with an offer to go on the stage which would almost treble his baseball Income. He admits that he is considering the offer seri ously. Chriaty Mathewson Is a great checker player. In fact, there are few wizards of the game who can outguess him on the tile board. At the hotels where Matty stops he invariably Inveigles someone Into a game and shows them Just how little they know about it. Just as Fall comes around once a year, so does the world's series ticket scandal, and this year's promises to furnish newspaepr copy for several weeks. The first step was the arrest of John B. Foster, secretary of the New York Giants. Others are to follow, ac cording to District Attorney Whitman, of New York. Billy Papke Is making "a grand re turn to the game. He has three credit able matches scheduled, and his brother Ed Is looking for more. . Tuesday of the past week diplomats and others alleged to be such waited outside the President's rooms at the White House in vain. They were told that he was too busy to see them. The business has been discovered. Mr. Wil son was doing what everyone else was doing getting returns from the ball game.
