The Oak have something on the Kussians- 'Row dy" Elliott's bunch of ball toasera can't be pushed back any more. They are now resting serenely In their old home, the cellar. How long they will remain there is of course tv question, but if they like the place as well.asthey seemed to last year and the year before that, and continue to loot 4Uce-a bunch of players Instead of a-ball team, they jyill grace the bottonf of "the.

percentage column for some time. With such hitters as Jack JJess, Jimmy Johnston fend Rube Gardner, and tessera of the Kbawitter, Prough "andBoyd there, is only one, ex-planatton of their present dilemma. The Oaks are far fronVft team. NESS HAS HIT IN 36 GAMES 9 riV-- (I -V! I Seal hitting beat them yesteraay, dk when ona considers that the' trans-bay -boys made-only on hit more than did the Oaks, with the score to and that Wednesday the locals actually outhlt the Seals, it begins to 'look as if there were something besides bitting and pltcning the matter with the Oaks. That something is not fielding, for Elliott's hired man are ahead of the STeals In fielding, and during the lent two games have made less than one-third as many errors as have the Ban Francisco tossers.

Complaints that the Oaks are not getting the breaks may be in order, but It seems that two years would have worn out that excuse. Right now we can't think of any other excuse, so the best thing that can be done Is to let Manager Cook solve the problem. Milton Reed, Portland cast-off and former PhlUey, looks like a class AA fielder, but so far he hasn't hit a lick. His average In the last two games has been little over 100. Out of nine times to hat he has hit only once.

With a few days more In uniform, however may, buck up in his stick work and prove a 'solution to the shortstop problem. Reed seems natural ball player, and covers a great amount of ground. Bo far he has got by with but one error, and that was as excusable one. There are more college ball players going up to the major leagues than ever before. The Philadelphia Athletics have signed about twelve eastern college stars, while the St.

Loul Browns have signed George Slsler, the University of Michigan crack. John svlvester Kemy, tne oeni third baseman Yale ever saw (some say) is sought after for a big league job also.

In four times at bat against "Hook em" Smith, Ness made two hits. Both were of the scratch variety, and the first one even looked a little like a present. On his third time to bat, Ness hit a slow one between the pitcher and first base. It was clearly the pitcher's ball, but Hcilmann came in on it and so did Iowns. base was not covered.

The only thing the scorer could do was to give Xeas a hit, although it looked as If Hcilmann had come In on purpose to give Xess a chance. There were two Oaks out at the time.

NATIONAL A.MATEER t'YCIJNG Hans Ohrt, the local cyclist, who is riding under the OlymfMc Club colors In Newark, has made an iinriiense hit with the fans throughout the East and is a favorite to win the amateur cycling championship of America. At Newark the contest for the title has narrowed down to three lads Hans Olirt, Eddie Sullivan, a New Haven cyclist, and Freddie Taylor, a Newark crack. "Ohrt, however, is the big favorite with the fans," says the Newark Evening Star, "and all appearances the California flyer will pull through With tlb latlTClS.

JiVhy Because it's the surest way 1 know to keep a bunch of ball players on their toes." Charles Buck) Herzog, manager of the tfinetnhatl Reds, emphasized his remarks by making abort, wicked jabs At the atmopshere with his clenchod hands. His aggressive jaw shot out and the cold i blue eyes fairly seemed to strike fire with every movement. "Yes, and I fine mv plavers, toono bluff about It; when I say I'll take their money, I take It." continued Herzog.

"Makes no difference who they-are: they all look alike to me in a uniform. 1 don't play favorttes; I fine myself when 1 think I need It and donate the money to I charity." This Is Herzog's style. A hard task- master he Is beyond a doubt: a man known amoaflc ball players as a But he treats himself a-s he treats all others. He Is a driver first, last and all the time. "Buck," as he likes to be called, is like no othear manager in the big league.

He has a unique end complex personality, and he thinks along original channels. Therefore his system -of management -t all his own. There is no fine balancing of the personal equation with Herzog. He alms to carry his team to success by Instilling In his own dynamic forces and "I won't be licked" spirit In every player. To him.

a team Is not nine separate and distinct individualities; It Is "a complete unit, an unfeeling-machine, built for the purpose of turning out good baseball, and ha 1b the dynamo. HERZOG AN OPTIMIST. Herzog Is an optimist, so much of an optimist that one conversing with him Is inclined to the belief that i Is not the case. He does believe that he is as good a ball player as walks the diamond and he believes he has the best team In the country. He has supreme confidence In himself and the men around him.

He cannot see anything but the bright light of success; he refuses to even consider failure. Herein la the story of Herzog's failures (granted that there have been any failures). His weakness lies in his very strength. He attributes to every man his own bulldog courage and determination to win and is puzzle! when they bow to defeat. A team of Herzogs could never be beaten it simply couldn't be Beaten Th.r.
