CONNIE MACK HIS 50 YEARS IN BASEBALL By ALAS GOL'LD Sports Editor The Associated Press TRYING TIMES Lean years -for the lean leader of the Athletics followed the break up of this famous 1910-14 cham- pioas. Thev took a heavy toll in money and prestige. The Philadelphia jlub, stripped of its stars, dropped from the top in 1914 to tlie bottom of the American league in 1915 for the first time In its history of 15 years under Mack's management, It not only sank to the depths. but stayed tfv.e. The Athletics. once a nam to strike apprenen fion among opponents, became the joke of the league. The team oc cupied the cellar for seven suc cessive years and rimainid in the second clivb.ion for ten seasons. It looked as though Mack, with ths advancing years and keener com petition for promising young Mars, had lost the masters touch. It was a period filled with bit terness and Disappointment for the veteran. He was able to take brighter view of it after he had at last driven another team to the top in 1929. Looking backward he told me: "I made a mistake in under-esti mating the ability of the game to come back after the war. I was caught napping. As a consequence it took us longer than I expected to develop another winning elub. "The three main reasons for the long period of depression in the fortunes of the Athletics were: "First, the Federal League and ACORNS BEATEN BY MISSIONS; SACS .DEFEATED By UNITED PRESS While autumnal rains postponed the northern games, the league leading Hollywood elub was busy beating Sacramento 5 to 3 and the Missions took Oakland 8-5 Thurs day.

It was the young right hander'6 19th victory for Hollywood and in creased the Stars' lead oyer the idle Angels to six games. Tony Freitas, Solon southpaw, was charged with the defeat, although lifted for a pinch hitter in the sixth. Biggs, rookie hurler of the Mis sions, tamed Oakland In a free hitting contest. Howard Craghead, the Oaks' star righthander, took tlie defeat. Uhalt, Acorn center fielder, was the batting star with four hits out of five. President Turner of Portland an nounced that Friday night's Portland-San Francisco game w ill be the final night contest of the year. Twin bills Saturday and Sun tiny after noons and a game Monday after noon will make tip fr the two post ponements. The Seattle-Los Angclte game also was rained out. 25 ASPIRANTS FOR ALBANY GRID TEAM Albany Coach Lloyd Balcom of the Albany coHege was greeted by 25 .gridiron teyirants Wednesday for the first call for football prac tice with more promised for Thurs day evening. As a nucleus for this year's team Coach Balcom has the following lettermen: A. Cochran, William Shearer, A. Kamphfer, Matheaney, J. Buchanan, It. Buch anan, Johnston and Laird.

SIX FOOTBALL GAMES ON RED AND BLACK SKED With six games scheduled for the season, Salem high school's football players will next week settle down to a steady grind which is not ex pected to lessen in any considerable degree until the wind-up of the season which Is SL'netluled Thanks giving day with the annual content with Chemawa. While a large majority of the squads of the state, favored by an early beginning of school, have been playing a number of "pre-season" contests, the locate, meeting for the first time last Monday will be forced to plunge into the toughest of the conference battles with but one or two "Harming up' engage ments. And these give promise of being anything but setups. The schools which started along about the first of September have been able to secure gainrs with Portland teams, but the fact that the latter outfits will be starting their own private war within a short time pre cludes any engagemens between tlwm and Salem high. Silverton, for the first time In a number of years will engage the lo cals. This contffct is scheduled for Silvertons field, October 10. Follow ing this encounter. Columbia uni versity hig' will come here for a tilt on Saturday, Oct. 18.

Corvallis, always a strong conten der for ,V!"amette valley honors is slated for October 24. On November 1, Salem will renew its fued with Medford after a lupse of a year, the red and black making the trip south.

Mil! sU'mr the upheaval It caused In Organ ized Baseball's ranks, forcing me to break up a championship team. ."Second, the World war, taking so many of the best players and retarding the production of young er ones for several years. "Third, the reconstruction and re adjustment period immediately fol lowing the war, when boom days in industry kept many young players from sticking to the sport. "Meanwhile, new interests en tered baseball. The Yankees, under the ownership of Colonel Jacob Rup prt and the able management of Miller Huggins, produced a marvel ous combination that dominated the American League, winning six pen nants in eight years. McGraw formed another wonderful eiub and won four National league pennants in a row. "Babe Ruth helped to revolution ize long-distance hitting, setting an example that the younger players quickly began to follow. Rogers Hosrisby created new batting rec ords in me national league. As I say, I was a little behind this parade. In 1925, however, the Athletics were strong contenders, leading the league until the middle of August. Inexperience and succession of injuries cost us the pennant that year, when Washing ton won, but I felt then it was a question of a short time only be fore we would win." When Mack first undertook the task of rebuilding virtually an . en tire new team in 1915 and for the succeeding few years he felt con vinced he could develop raw mate rial once more. He said at the time: 1 made up my mind to build from the ground up. I seldom go alter a minor league star, not be cause of Uie ridiculous price asked for his release but because I find he Is harder to develop to my style of play than the inexperienced youtn. "I have tried my hand at nan dling these hich oriced minor league stars and find that they are too set in their ways and invariably cannot be broken of faults which I will not tolerate In a ball-player. NoDoay knows better than I that the fans will not patronize a los ing ball team. I don't ask them All I want Is a fair chance. I prom ised a powerful team in 1917 and I will have It. The As of 1917 were last and so were those of the next four years. Mack not only found his theories or development shot to pieces by the changes in the times and in player conditions, but he finally was forced to enter the bidding for nigniy-touted minor leaguers. Before he turned out another win ner. Mack and his partners, the Shibes, pent more than a half mil lion dollars for talent. They reached the climax when $106,500 was paid to Jack Dunn of Baltimore for Robert Moses Grove, the southpaw pitching star, in 1924. As it turned out, this Investment paid big dividends. After a wild season or two. Grove struck his stride and established himself as one of the greatest left-handers of all time, the equal if not the supe rior of those other two great south paws that Mack handled Rube Wacldell and Eddie Plank. All told, a half dozen stars that shone in the pennant victory of the Athletics in 1929 cost the club ap proximately $330,000. Besides Grove, they inclluded George Earnshaw, Al Simmons, Mickey Cochrane, Max Bishop and Joe Boley.

Downie states he .has a bunch of willing workers on hand and be lieves he should develop a team that will be a real threat to outfits of Its class before the season is many weeks old.

The fact that he is good sized, a fast and accurate passer and all that could be asked as a kicker, makes it certain he will di rect the team this year. "He may make a few mistakes In calling his signals," Downle con tinued, "but he will learn and de velop fast. I had planned to U6e Wilder as a half but he was called home on account of Illness in the family and may not return. In his place I expect to use Elmer Kala ma, who, although he lacks exper ience, Is fast and shifty and good on offense."
