of baseball In order to win pennants
Is Illustrated by comparisons of the
records of 1 clubs, each a flag win

son, with an occasional cn-epnon .
will be found that the team which fin
ished first in the league rare held a
high position In batting, fielding and
baserunnlng. There is no record of any
one combination holding the leading
place In all three of these departments
of the play, but a number of the clubs
showed the way In two oi in inree
divisions.
Among the more Important leagues
the New Tork Giants, winners or tne
National league pennant, were first In
team fielding and base stealing, nut
finished second In batting. The Chi
cago White Sox. American Leacue lead
era and world champions, were first
In stolen bases, but second In team
batting and fielding. Toronto, inter-
ational League champions, beaded tne
list In batting and fielding, but nil
to second place In base stealing. In
the American Association the Indian
apolis club was first In fielding, but
seventh In batting and fifth in stolen
bases.
Taken aa a whole, the averages are
very high. The grand average of the
i pennant-winning clubs Is .1.. inir-
teen clubs show an average oi in
batting and II have a mark of .1(0
fielding. The average numner oi

Walter Honey-man. chairman of the

George Ingle's registration blank from

with the husky wallop adds in his let
ter that he will be in perfect physical
condition for his battle with Alex
Trambltas here on Wednesday. Feb
ruary 20, at the Eleventh-street Play

Trambltas stsrted active training
yesterday and after punching the bag

This boy. Stanley 'Willis, who oris-.
nally hails from Detroit, but who has

featherweight championship of that
late last year, is a regular whiz I

icts that he will be a sensation I

Willie St. Clair.
St. Clair Is no slouch In the ring an
ss a string 'of victories that is th
envy of many a mixer. Willie has
fought all kinds of boys and battle
from four to 20 rounds. He should
make Willis extend himself to beat
him.
The fans will be In for a hot session
when Joe Gorman, the doughty little
Oakland battler, tangles with Toung
Sam Lang ford, the colored buzz boy
from San Francisco. Langford is mak-
ing 130 pounds for Gorman and the
bout is sure to be a hummer.
Frankie Rogers will come over from

man. One other bout will complete the
card, making; six fights on one bill.
Here's what the "Chi-
cago Apparel Gazette,"
a leading clothing pub
lication, says:
"Indications reflect that the
lines of men's clothing for Fall,
1918, will undoubtedly show the
most pronounced price advances
of any season since the war
started in 1914. The consumer,
next Fall, will for the first time
feel the full force of the wool
shortage and higher labor
prices."

treated to a real spectacle. From the
first minute of play to the final whistle
both teams were fighting for the game.
With the score standing 12 all, with
one minute to play in tne ursi nan,
Thompson made two sensational bas
kets for Franklin, the first period end-
ng 16 to 12 in Franklin s favor.
After a few minutes or action in tne
second half Ryan, of the Christian
Brothers forwards, made the score 15
to IS by making three points on fouls
called on the Franklin team, ifrost,
the other C. B. forward, came through
with a basket, making the score 17 to
f for Christian Brothers. Another
basket by White and two more fouls
registered by Ryan put the Christian
Brothers in front wtth a 21-to-ib score.

ther basket, the game ending 24 to 21,
Franklin.
Thomas, ' Thompson and Tucker
tarred for Franklin and played a great
game, while Broet, white and Murphy
laved the best game for the losers.
esterday's game was one of the best
played this season In either Inter
scholastic league.
The only marr on the contest was
when Referee Cregg banished Amburn,
of the Franklin team, for making a
ab at Murphy, one of the Christian
Brothers' guards. Murphy bumped
Amburn harder- than seemed necessary
a collission between the two, and
the Quaker baskettosser came back
with a straight left, and although he
missed Muryhy Cregg put him out of
the game and called a foul on Murphy
for bumping him.
This young Mrphy is a real basket
ball player and is playing a great
