Connie Mack is the oldest man ager la the younger league, and thia falls world series gsmee may present the unusual sight. Mack and Robinson ot the Brook lyn Dodgers, the two most sged pilots in 'either league, engsged in deadly combat. Uncle Robby ot the Flatbnsb aggregation Is two years older then Msc, who Is sixty-eight. Phvsically they are two entire ly different types. Mack is tall and gaunt, while Robby Is short and rotund, but mentally they are alike. Both are from the old school ot baseball, but have been mellowed by the years. Both are genial philosophers and are look ed upon by their players more like fathers than bosses.

R. I., Aug. SS. (A P) Enterprise, smellest of tour sloops built this spring as pros pective defeuders ot the America's cup, today found herself bearlug the responsibility of maintaining Columbia's rule over Britain's yachtsmen, established in 1851. In that year the yacht America whipped eighteen of Englands faatost racing yachts la a race of yachts around the Isle ot Wight and brought to these shores a 100 guinea cup of doubtful beauty, which has siuce been cherished as the greatest of all yachting tro phies the America's cup. Through her selection last uUhl by the America's Cup committee ot the New York Yacht club. En terprise, skippered by Harold 3 LhmM.ib Ci TkniH, t Inlnn, fifth challenger, and the four teenth challenger since the cup wss won by the America In 1851 Wins Two Strnlclit Enterprise's selection came af ter she had won two straight races. In races sailed over vari ous courses. In various weather conditions. In some ot which not all of the candidates took part. Enterprise took most first places. Announcement of the commit tee was accompanied by scant ex planation. Enterprise beat Weet- amoe in their two races of the of tidal trials, but Yaukee twice whipped Whirlwind, and It bad been expected the selection com mittee would send Enterprise out against Yankee before making a decision. Yankee's most recent victory, last Thursday, was in time which broke previous yacht ing records for the thirty-mile trl angnlar course. Light Air Has Bearing Possibly tha commutes was in tluenced In its choice by the pres ence of the Shamrock V In the harbor. Sir Thomas Llptoo's sleek greea sloop has been going around the harbor In Nsrragansett bay during the past few days, and making remarkably good time in air so light the committee refrain ed from starting the defender can didate. Undoubtedly the Enter prise could sail circles around any other candidate In extreme light air, and probably wonld only bow to Yankee In heavy weather. The committee, therefore, la thought to be gambling oa the likelihood of the International classic being sailed in light air. Marvin Nelson Wins World's Distance Swim TORONTO, OnU, Aug. 28.
