Hut no one would ever aeruse Moran of calling his nen "babies." Rather his attitude Is one of "I'rn your boss fellows, but a darned good one." I got It straight, from the fans that he "made the team." "No one is excited over the big games even though we've never been In them before," Moran said. He talked of his pitchers.

"They're all in splendid form," Moran said as we sat on the bench. Slim Sallee was already on the field warming tip.

NIX REGISTERS HIGH SCORE AT RIFLE PRACTICE Totals 99 Out of a Possible 105 at St. Charles Ranges BY FORESIGHT. The weekly practice of Winnipeg riflemen and rlflewomen took place Saturday afternoon under very severe weather conditions at Ht.

Charles rifle ranges. The cold was very keen and riflemen lay on the ground with chattering teeth and trembling bodies. They stuck it for the usual three ranges, however, and a few of firm had the satisfaction of making good scores. A very tantalizing head fish-tall wind was blowing which, toward the close of the day's shooting, switched around to the lift: conditions which called into requisition tiie very be.st judgment of the riflemen- Takins Into consideration the discomfort resulting from cold and the tricky nature of the wind and light, a remarkable score was made by lt. J.

O. Nix. of the 7th Cameron. Ha made a possible at HOii yards, and altogether totalled 9lt point out a possible 103. Lieut.

Nix has been Shooting exceedingly well during the short which Is now almost at clo.e, and although he is now attached to the Camerons, it may be rioted that previous to the outbreak of war lie was a strong-going marks-man of the 90tii Klne (L.H.D.'s), in tlie ranKS of which famous Bhooting Unit he received his training. Staff-Sergeant C. A. Hawley, of the 90th unit, lias, during the season, also made some excellent scores, and Kat- urdnv would have topped the shoot- I tug for the season but for a magpie dropped in 600 yards, and two I magpies at HOO yards amongst an 'otherwise perfect array of bullseyee the two longer ranges. Tho cold must have been speeia ly trying on the ladls who shot under the auspices of the Winnipeg Women's Rifle association.

Ne.verthe.ess. some very good scores were mude. Miss W- Westsate leading with a total of 90. The geners.1 Impression at the ranges seomed to be that the season is aet- Iting too far advanced for pleasurable shootlr.g. and the wish was expressed I by more than a few of the enthusiasts that no more shooting may take Llace this season.

Moran Is Patient and Smart, Old Mate Says Finesse In Handling Hurlers Won Flag Cincinnati Reds Surprised Fans By Winning Pennant This Year BY JOHN J. EVERS IJ students of baseball, he- fore the season opened, knew I thiit Cincinnati had a irood club, but very few would have been rash enough to predict tiiat the Reds would win the National league pennant.

Cincinnati has had good baseball teams he-fore, but the flagpole at Garry Herrmann's park has not been overcrowded with championship pen-nantsThe Iteds usually have bloomed early In the race, only to wither In the heat of the Closing months. Why have they this year outraged all baseball precedent and history? The answer would appear to be l'at Moran. I do not think that there, is anyone who has more personal knowledge of Moran and his methods than I have- For seven year I playad on the same team and lived In the same house with him. In that tlnio you get to know a man pretty well. Moran Is a big, good-natured, well-met Irishman, but he is more than that.

He Is a man you are proud to know. Three of the why he Is a great manager are that ho has a wonderful disposition, he ha infinite patience and he knows baseball. As eariy as 1906. Moran's Mne hand showed itself In the work of tile pitching staff of the Chicago Cubs. That year Iteulbach was with us and Chance hud purchased Ptleter from Omana and traded Uob Wicker to Cincinnati for Overall.

Kliag was. In my opinion, the greatest catcher the game haa ever seen, but he larked the patience necessary to develop pitchers. Then Chance got Moran from Hoston. I never have seen a man who can handle pitchers the way Moran oan. Kor over two months Moran worked with I'iiester, Overall and Reulbach every morning.

He never got discouraged and he never beeamu Impatient. The rdult was that all three men developed into great twirlers. Improvement was especially noticeably In Iteulbach, who had not shown much up to that time. It was largefy the pitching slaff which carried the Cubs to so niany victories during those years, and the pitching staff was due rn Moran. Wnen J'at first worked In i'liila- uider Charley Kooip, both and Rixey owed mum to Mm, nri tt wa' ln which he handled hU icheVh he thB too recent'history to n'incrmi ls tlie In t.intliiiv twirlers which canny finesse pitching has d.v gUlf( of atar8 ln steff of 1911 Into A account ins.

I am not aki uh bu, the veterans. Hallee rUfr anJ speak.ng only of Itet ting And If I an Heuther mid KUor Sa-lons In the worW done thH tut Moran has merely develop his hl(( every man on his oe. und ving tY lant. and th. xton course1! knew all i'Vr- with th.

I $7.50 up I 291 Portage Avenue i 'STRANGE EVENTS ALMOST DAILY ON BALL FIELD Spink Tells of Peculiar Happenings In Major League Games i BY AL SPINK mllEUE; are strange happenings on tlm baseball field every day things out of the ordinary and Lt Is these strange things that make the game Interesting us much us anything else. That was a strnngo happening ut Cubs park the other day. Hai nes, who has. been doing such gilt-edged pitching for New York this year, wu in the box. and there were three on bases, with llobertson, the Giant discard, nt bat.

Itobertson had been batting very poorly for several games, making a "holy show of as he himself put It, nnd no one expected him to do anything. Hurncs. too, was of this opinion, and put a beauty' right ln the groove. Robertson slammed at It with all his might and the ball sailed out of sight and over the far field fence. Four runs came home, of course, end lt was curtains for New York for the day.

Someone said that Robertson had hit tho ball wlthvhls eyes shut, and another suggested, oiv hearing this, that Mitchell put. a pair of "horse blinders" on Robby every time he sent him to bat The greatest baseball play I ever saw occurred in the game botween the Vhlladulphia Athletics and the Detroit Tigers In Shlbe park, Philadelphia, Juno, 1812. "Ty" Cobb. hiB first time up, hit a nasty grounder toward first base. The ball had a deceptive bound, and "Stuffy" Mclnnls had some trouble reaching for It apd keeping hold of the ball when lie got lt.

Hut he managed to scramble over and touch first Just as "Ty" raced over the bag. "Connie" Mack's loyal "rooters" declared the "Georgia Peach" out by a mile, but tlie umpire had Ideas of his own, and Tysus rested safely on the Initial sack. The unexpected usually happens when thl star swatsman is running bases, and on this occnslon he did not disappoint his admirers. After the pitcher had thrown the ball, "Ty," having a fairly good lead, decided to nrnble along down to second, figuring, no doubt, that Lapp (the Athletic catcher) would be taken off his "guard and throw wild. To try for second after a catcher of Lapp's ability has the ball requires "nerve" of a high order.

He Is usually "there" with the perfect peg; but the sight of Cobb jogging along was too much for him. and he heaved the ball Into centre field. Cpbb saw Barry crouched ln front ff the base waiting as If to receive tho bnlU so. gathering speed, he made one of his famous bent-leg slides and landed behind the bag. Then, seeing the ball had gone' to centre field, he started for third base at top speed.

Someone, I think it was Collins, made a beautiful throw-to "Home-Run" Paker. who stabbed Cohb with tiie ball as that well-known gentleman was in the net of sliding head first for the third haven The crowd groaned when the umpire motioned Cobb safe at third. While admiring his nerv exhibition, the "fans" really wnnted the dangers ous fellow disposed of, and he had reached third by the closest kind of a margin. "Ty" slapped the dust from his togs and, as usual, ran several feet up the path toward home each time the pitcher started to wind up. Thu batter now had gathered two strikes, and with the next wind-up Cobb raced for the plate at full soeed sliding with great force against Lapp, who was waiting for him with tho bail.

But the throw had been a little too high and the catcher was taken off his feet before lie could touch the daring ouse runner. Cubb. therefore, stole threo bases after having reached Ilrst by a lucky scratch hit and made the Hrst run of the gume before the next batter up had hit the ball. 1 STAG TO CONDUCT BILLIARD TOURNEY Al George, of 8tag Hilllard parlors, would like to hear from six class members of the amateur bll-liurd asociatlon, who would willing to act as captain of six feur-man teams, to compete ln a Hying tournament, to bold on or about Get. 15, on the third floor of thfTStaK recreation building.
