The Australian cricket eleven began a two-day match against an all-New-York eleven. yes- terday at the Staten Island Cricket Club grounds, and outplayed the local men at all points of the game. The Weather was fair but the ground be- tame crumbly after the first bour of play, and this favored the bowlers. The visitors went first to bat and ran ap. 167 runs in thelr first inn- ings against 53 for New York.

Apropos of this Charlie Querri /manager of the Tecumsehs, and one of the best known eastern men in the game, in a igned orticle here calls upon the miagnates to get to- gether and suggests the commission rule a8 the only salvation of the game. He writes: There is oply one way to put la- erosse back on fitm footing again, and that is forthe lacrosse mag- antes to take a leaf out of the base- and a lacrosse eom- can control the : club today that spends a seagon young player?

When lacrosse men of the ability and brains like Tom O'Connell, Jos Lally, R. J. Fleming, Percy Quinn, Con Jones, Jimmy Murphy and 0 ets cannot see that petty quarrels and the desire to beat the other league is only - resulting in players making a laughing stock of contracts and receiving salaries that the game cannot afford, what chance is there fora commission such as the: base- ball moguls found was the only way to govern and make a success of game? With Jimmy Murphy going to Victoria. to start a team, and Con Jones needing: players for Van- conver, the war will likely start ear ly, and players will reap all the bene- fit. Go to it, boys, get all you can, for some day the magnates of the lacrosse world tay wake up, and things will not be-so soft. * COACHES IN BASTERN RUGBY.

What part will pitehing play in the winning of the 1912 world's series? No matter what an individual may do during the world s series, is it not after all the pitching which is the deciding factor? If the twirler keeps the opponents off the base lines, how can they travel ground to the home plate? Pitching effectiveness is. the one big, asset to a team in short series as will be played by Boston and New York, Althonght, it is only conjecture, it is- pretty generally understood that Manager Stahl will depend tipon three Wood, his brilliant right hand- ick O'Brien; a spitball artist. Hall and Bedient, both twirlers who employ their right arm to baffle the opposition, may get a chance, but on- ly after the other three have been tried. Manager McGraw is counting on three men-also Mathewson, a star of many seasons and seties; Tesreau, a youth whose size, strength and spit- ter won fame for him this season; and Rube Marquard, the left-hander who made a remarkable record during the early part of the 1912 campaign, but whose work in recent games has been erratic. McGraw also has sev- eral relief-men, who may be seen in action, Crandall and Ames being the most prominent of these. An outfielder who has no Seeticniny interest in the series except to see the best team win can note little ad- vantage for elther team in the piteh- ing end of the coming games. On form, they say, Wood should be the first game, while if It so happens that the southpaws get together, Col- lins and Marquard appear well mat- ched. O'Brien and Tesreau should fight a saliva delivery battle worth the advanced world s series prices. Averages never give a good line on world s series.

We won it with the most consistent base- ball team ever seen. We won be- able of great advancement along tha) cause we had the best team that has natiofal game. it that the boys will sthe world s series. After that they will give Boston good baseball for tour or five years to come without many changes in the ranks. We have won this year, not because the other fellows have gone back, but because our boys have found them- selves. They have been coming, They became due. And now they have arrived, They will stay for a long time to come. The credit for winning this pen- nant is due to the boys themselves, and to none of the rest of us, The team is about the same ag last year s, with the exception that Jake Stahl is ack in the game and Heinle Wag- ner came back. With those two positions filled, and all the rest of the boys just reaching their stride, we simply had to win. Before 1 give you my opinion of why the Red Sox are the best base- ball team I have ever seen, I want to call your attention to two things: First The team has never been disgraced. The Sox have played con- sistently from start to finish. Once they lost four games in a row, but therwise were never beaten more we won the pennant. Second There is not a weak spot on the team: Every one of the Sox has come through. The team has been consistent All the time and all the way through. The Red Sox have beaten all com- ters alike. They defeated the Athlet-. fes just as they did the others. When the pinch came they were always there. Let's go back to the start. When I than two games in succession until teams in the league, All we needed were a first baseman and a shortstop. Yake Stahl filled the first bill. I fig- ured that only problem was Heinie Wagner if Heinie came back we couldn t finish any worse than sec- ond, And Heinle came: back, Just as we hoped he would. That completed our baseball team I want to say something about them as men. They are the cleanest, most quiet and unostentatious bunch of ball players T have ever seen, You never see them boasting about what they can do. They fight all the time, but they never, have a chip on thelr shoulders. They simply go out there like a regular ordinary baseball cracked the Athletics then and there, team.
