F .Walter Maranvilie, of tlie Bfavea. will have to hustle if he again Intends to lead the major league- in starting "double plays, writes Krnest -J. Lanlgan. Last season the Rabbit set a new rec ord by making the initial move in 58 duplex killings, all prior performances being knocked into infinitesimal emith .e'reens. ,. The mystic words "Maranvilie to ,'Kvers to Schmidt" hatven't appeared in .ine summaries or tne- dox .scores a3 frequently this season as last, one rea- eon, of course, being the long absence fol Trojan Johnny Kvers from the Braves lineup. Now that the K. K. a&ain is playing regularly, the prob abilities are that Springfield, JIass.'s .'notable contribution to the list of base ball heroes will get busy and go out 4Hnd overhaul the able athletes who at present stand credited with having in stituted more double plays than he has. Foar Put Quarter Mark. Said able athletes are Shortstops Hoirer Feckincaueh. of the Yankees: "John La van, of the Browns, and Charles Herzog-, of the Reds, these men uid the Rabbit being the only pastim rg who have passed the quarter cen tury mark in starting two-ply killings. The two American leaguers each have put 30 in motion, the leader of the Reds has made the first move In 28, And the private of the Braves follows along with 27, -An oddity regarding the double wlays manufactured by the World champions this year is. that up to Wednesday not one had been started ,b-y Evers. Thus far this season nine players have instituted 20 or more double slaughters, the other men being Arthur Fletcher, of the (iiants, and David 'James Bancroft, of the Phillies, short stops, and Bert Niehoff, of the Phillies, FAVORITE IN BIG s MARATHON SWIM Norman Ross, the tar Multnomah club swimmer, . who Is the fa- yvorlte for the three-mile swim- minir event in Min Willamette river next Saturday.

Larry Doyle of the Giants, and Derrill Pratt of the Browns, second basemen. Fletcher haa started 23, Niehoff 21 (a good showing for a man who has been transformed Into a second baeeman in a year's time), and Pratt, Doyle and Bancroft each 20. . At present Johnny Lavan and Derrill Pratt of the Browns, .both collegians, one from the 'University of Michigan, the other from the University of Ala bama, hold the honors that were the property of Tinker and Evers in 1910, of Fletcher and Doyle in 1911, 1912 and 1913, and of Maranvilie and Kvers in 1914. Bicker's Boys Go Well. Rickey's two high-brows have be tween them started 50 double plays. Other swift-moving combinations at I he middle of the infield are Peckin paugh and Boone of the 'Yanks and Fletcher and Doyle of tlfe Giants. They each have "pulled 43 dual slaughters on the opposition. Bancroft and Niehotf of the Phiils take credit for having started 42 double plays: Maranvilie alicl Fitzpatrick of the Braves for 37; O'Mara and Gutshaw of the Superbas for 3G; Herzog and Olson of the Reds for 36; Fisher and Zimmerman of the Cubs for 26; Weaver and Collins of th; White Sox for 24; Bush and Youns of the Tigers for 23; Wagner and Viox of the Pirates for 23; Kopf and Lajoie of the White Elephants for 22-; Butler and Huggins of the Cardinals for 18; Mc Bride and Morgan of the Senators for 17; Scott and Wagner of the Red Sox for 15. and Chapman and Hammond of the Indians for 13. Qroh and Austin at Top. Best of the third sackers at starting double plays this year are Heinle Groh of the Reds and Jimmy Austin of th? Browns. Each westerner has put 18 in motion. Zinn Beck, of the Cards, and Walter Barbare of the Indians have each made the first move in 10, and Douglass Baird of the Pirates has tak en the Initiative in nine. Beck, Baird and Barbare have not played regularly at the hot corner this season, else their Records in -double plays might be Just as good as Austin's and Groh's. Of the first basemen. Jack Miller of the Cardinals is the pace-setter In dual killings, with six to his credit. Fred Luderus of the Phils has started four and so have Arnold Gandi.l of th Washingtons and Anthony Brief, wh.i was with the White Sox, and who- now is with Salt Lake. Vic Saier of the Cubs has Instituted three two-ply re tirements, and. incidentally, in each one of these he played a lone hand. Twenty-nine unassisted double plays have cropped up thus far this year. Saier, as told, taking credit for three of these tricks. "Doc" Johnson of the Pirates and Jack Miller of the Cardi nals, first basemen, each have pulled two unassisted double plays, and so have Shortstop Herzog and Third Base man Groh of Cincinnati. Outfielders Elmer Smith of the Indians and Pete Daley of the Yanks have taken flies while on the dead run and then kept on sprinting and added to their putout records by stepping on the bag runners had vacated. This is the list of unas sisted double plays: Piret Basemen.

Some of the big league clubs, who lit in a hittine slumn. mieht are lm- jjf- itate the experiment made with wonderful results a few years ago by a minor league man- ager. Alexander Pearson Is manager under discussion. the He was handlinar the llniontnwn J (Pa.) and the team was doing everything but winning M games. Pearson shifted ball his batting order a half doien times in the hope that the change would lift the team out or a oatting slump. But afr no avail. to Whereupon. Pearson nut the names or all his players on a 3fc slip of saner and denosited them in a hat.' Then he with- drew them for batting position, the first name withdrawn to be the lead off batsman, the Jlf ond name to bat second and so on. ; The club, with its juggletl lineup, won the game that day and foUowed it with 17 more victories, all In a row.
