Judge HcCredle stated this morning tnat it would'b me policy of tha club to play off postponed or tie games upon the next visit of the elub which suffered them. There were no postponed Karnes from' the first ser ia here this year of the Venice, Bait r Lake- and Los Angeles club and . there- rare non of, theatwlli have to play a double header on their next trip north. The Oakland "club cornea next week and if there are any postponed games, they will -be played off as double bead, ess in first week of - July. - . - i "This season," said the Judge, 3we are not going to take any chances possible to avoid fn playing off games in September or October. Our club fs usually going pretty well then and we don't want to take any : chances on rain. If w parried over the postponed gem e until then, we might strike atreak of rain and not get any of them In. We bave noticed heretofore that There, is a good deal of rain in-Sep--1 ember that causes us to lose games. Walter Schmidt, the fleetf ooted young catcher of the San . Francisco Beala, who was struck' on the ankle by a foul ball Wednesday and had to re tire from the game, is still limping but Manager Wolverton does not be lieve, that he will miss more than a game or so in the five remaining to be played. The rain that caused a r postponement . of yesterday's game gave Schmldtty"s wounded member a good rest. Dave Bancroft, lead off man for the Philadelphia Nationals, cracked the Chicago pitchers yesterday for two hits, including a home run. Jt will boost Dave's figures up a bit, as.be had been batting around the .230 mark. Dave makes up in fielding for what ;h lacks In batting. Although hitting only -.280 Dave almost leads his club :tn the number of runs scored, the last averages .giving him lo tallies. Gavvy Cravath is first with 18, but Bancroft la now leading off and his total num- ber of runs has probably exceeded ; those of Cravath. . Clarence' Pants Rowland, manager of the Chicago White Sox, the only . class. B manager who ever stepped directly Into tbe majors, has a unique . answer for the players who try to get hla goat by yelling "Busher" or "Bush Leaguer" -at him. It tickles him greatly, he says. - . v t t T'Because that's when I get their . goat," says Rowland. "Let them yell ' ftusher' or anything else thejl want. It i divides their attention." ' I ' ; Here's a problem in psychology, or oma other kind of ology: Robert i Hedges of the .St. Louis Browns la ; willing to sell the club. Anybody With the price can bave it Hedges i never had a money maker but one : year, in 1908, when his club bad a thanes at the American league pen ' rant till Labor day. The only other big fcoin was when he clung to the 130,090 option money paid him by a syndicate that thought It wanted to Juy the Browns, t Now Otto Stiefel is a brewer, and jPn.ll Ball builds and Installs icemak ng plants. mostly for breweries. They own the St. Louis Federal league club, branch Rickey, manager of the St. Louis Browns, has a , contract with Hedges that runs four more years, and that goes with the franchise. Rickey Is a regular Billy Sunday ball player. He doesn't go to the ball park pn the Sabbath, doesn't use profanity, Doesn't smoke or drink. In fact, some pf the boys call him St. Rickey, and tiever Oln Rickey. The guestlon is f:ould Rickey reconcile his conscience to hi employment by a ball club that has been bought with beer money If Stiefel and Ball should take over the Browns. ... . - I I.
