Before Stallings left town for his home at Haddock, he announced that only three men of the entire staff had not come to terms with the club for One is Bill James and the other two are Outfielders Whitted and Moran. There is little doubt but that the trio of hold-outs will fall into line, for hardly a player who belongs to a world's championship outfit can afford to throw awav a chance to share in another melon such as the Braves sliced earlier in the week for a jump to the Federals. President Gatfney has been kind and generous to the team, and the three unsigned men are reasonably sure to fall in line before the National League meeting in December. Before departing for his heme in the South Stallings wished to make it plain to all the scriln-s of Boston and other towns on the baseball compass not to stint Fred Mitchell when picking out one of the reasons why the Braves won the world's title. He gives Mitchell all the credit for keeping the Boston pitchers iii condition during the season and for the wonderful development of Jame3 from an obscure second-rate pitcher to a headliner in less than four months of work.

Mitchell's duties with the club were to coach the pitchers during the morning practice and to hold down the third coaching line during the game. Mitchell is well known to Philadelphia fans, for he was a pitcher with the Phillies under Hughey Duffy and later was a member of the Athletics. He then drifted into the lOastern (now International! League and developed into a backstop, sticking in the minor show until Stallings brought him into the American League, when he took command of the Yankees in PHO. When Stallings was by the New Yorks Mitchell went with him to Buffalo, then came back to the big ring again when the Miracle Man assumed the management of the Braves.

ARE Baseball Makes Exit After a Season of Sensational Events Among Leagues. 1914 PENNANT WINNERS Veteran Player Tells of First Finger Mit Used on Diamond. Ppfelnl Associated Press.

New York, Oct. 17. With the world's baseball championship and almost all tho pennant races in the major and minor leagues decided, the baseball peason of HJU has passed into history. Many of the events which occurred during th? playing peason, as well as those which immediately precc-dod tho departure of the various teams to their training camps, were of a pensational character. The invasion of the major league circuit, by a new organization, its stubborn fight, for recognition, the enforced extraordinary advance in the salaries of prominent player, tho legal battles fought for the retention or subjugation of several alleged contract breakers kept the baseball world in a ferment -for months.

The round-the-world trip of the foremost diamond stars, which was, both financially and instructively, a huge success, was a big Ftcp toward making the great American game universally understood. Taken altogether the reason just finished has marked an epoch in baseball and furnished probably the most interesting chapters in the long and varied records of events on the diamond. In "addition to the National, American nnd Federal leagues, there were nearly i') organizations of professional baseball clubs in operation in the f'nited States and Canada during the past year, and the appended list shows the pennant winners for 1011: World's championship, Boston.

The reported acquisitions by the University uf Wisconsin football team of Halfback Guyon, formerly of the Carlisle Indian School eleven, should greatly strengthen the Badger backiieki. Guyon as a feniarkable player at Carlisle his record being almost equal to that of Jim Thorpe. Last fall he scored 20 touchdowns for the Indians; kicked mii- goals and one field goal, giving him a total of 132 points.

This record grows in importance when the Carlisle 1913 echttkile is considered containing as it did games against Cornell Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, Dartmouth, Syracuse, Brown, Georgetown and other strong college teams. If Guyon plays in the Conference, games, Chicago, Minnesota, Illinois and other middle Western university coaches will have something to worry alnuit "Dad" Phillips, who is employed as binder by the Leland-Stanford I'uivcrsity Press, claims to have seen the first linger mitt ever used in a baseball game. Over forty years ago "Dad'' says ho plaved on the saint! team with A. G. Spalding at Rockton .111., ami of the origin the mitt as follows: "In one of the games that our Rockton squad played we were attracted bv the sound of tho ball as it clapped into the hands of the man on first base for our opponents.

Of course, none of 'us were mitts in those days, and we never thought such a thing would be practical. But this man on first base always caught the ball with a loud pop, and several of us noticed it, though we could see nothing unusual about his hands. "How ever, alter he caught the ball each time, he pressed something into his left hand. After the game Spalding and I went over to see what he had in his hand. After some protest he showed is.

It was nothing but a piece of bent metal around which he had sewe I some leather. It ined hh hail injured his hand, and lid not want to be kept out of the game, which was for the championship of the State. So he had made this mitt." Bunting ought to be tabooed, according to He says that the team on which he played originated the bunting stunt, but he docs not think that it is legitimate baseball. In his early days a bunt was called a "fair foul," and was not 6) USHER This is an opportunity that calls for the quickest of quick action, if you want the greatest automobile bargain ever offered.
