Just turned a trick on Mr. Weather Man at the last minute yesterday, and shot the news over just as the press wheels began to turn. Just to keep pace with the mercury we went IS.

PROVIXG SOMETHING AND NOTHING. Dear Sir: A great deal has been written about the driving type of manager. Doesn't the fact that Pat Moran, who isn't a driver, has his team in first place while McGraw and Herzog, hard task masters, are at the foot, prove that after all men are more easily led than driven? G- L- F. Sometimes we doubt very much whether anything proves anything in sport. Or whether nothing won't prove anything, or anything will prove nothing.

Pat Moran, an easy likeable leader, hardest driver In the game, George and is Moran's hardest rival this fall is down at the foot, Connie Mack, of the opposite type, is not only at the foot, but jammed tightly into the heel within close danger of going on through. You have Moran and Mack on one side against Stallings and McGraw on the other. And Stallings and McGraw have won the last four National League pennants. While the main decorations of Mr. Mack's house are said to be gonfalons of various vintages, barring only the 1915 model.

WHICH PROVES WHAT? Some of the best managers we have ever seen In baseball were of the Moran-Mack type. And others fully as good were of the opposite mold. Which proves that there is no set recipe to travel by. The main Idea Is to get the best work out of the men to keep them on the jump and both the systems of Moran and Stallings can accomplish this when operated by a Moran or a Stallings. It Is merely a matter of managerial knack, magnetism or power which radiates from different sources.

R. Price of the Oakmont rntm finh with a. score of 88, led the field in the qualifying round of the I eighth annual Invitation tournament of the Oakmont Country Club which waa played yesterday at Hulton. The game put up by the Oakmont player yesterday was far superior to any of the others who contested. She was seven strokes better than Miss Sarah Fownes of Oakmont, who finished second.

Mrs. Price was out in 42, which is the regular bogey for men. Playing the six hole, which ia 172 yards long, she drove to the green and then holed a putt for a two. Coming In she dropped four strokes, taking 46. Her card: Her Out la 8J4S5JS4 8 IS 5 a S5 SI 4 4 5 te-S Many Starter.

There were 74 starters in esterday's play, the largest number ever entered in an Oakmont tournament, and all but four returned cards. Considering the weather conditions, the scores were exceptionally good. While 88 was the lowest. 17 6 was the highest score made. With the excessive heat there was a general opinion that many of the women would be overcome and woul have to stop, but such was not the case.

Several players when they holed out'on the eighteenth green admitted that they were almost exhausted. A lrhnutrh the Oakmont tournament is an invitation affair, it is the only open tournament for women in West- tra Pennsylvania, and is practically YES, IT'S TOUGH. Said Packey to Mike as the kale he crumpled "We've certainly earned this dough; I might have had my hair all rumpled And you might bare sprained a toe." Said Mike to Packey: "We've earned the price With a few bills over due; You nearly hit me once or twice And 1 nearly hit you, too." The Braves needed a miracle to win last season and pretty soon all they will need to win this season will be ten tons of dynamite and 14 siege guns. PUTTING IS SPLENDID GREENWICH, Sept. 14.

The new champion of the Inter-collegiate Golf Association is. Frederick R. Blossom, a Tale junior. He de feated Grant A. Peacock, of Princeton, 11 up and 9 to play in the 36-hole final match over the links of the Greenwich Country Club, here today.

It was Blossom's putting which permitted him to finish the first 18 holes, 8 up. Blossom Is a native of Chicago and is in his Junior year at Yale.

J. DUswortb, S3 108 ID 66 MS 110 E5 59 114 ii Kt If Packey and Mike can get the De lne at Wnat 8 tne answer CR.WFORD VS. CRAVATH. Those two ancient slugging rivals, Sam Crawford and Gabby Cravath, are still at it. Each is the long-distance clouter of his circuit and at the present writing Cravath leads Crawford by 98 extra bases against 85 for Wahoo Sam.

Yet Crawford's total output of bases is 258 against 221 for the hard-hitting Quaker. Cravath is a grand free-swinging hitter an eminent handler of the wooden mace. But as good as he is we doubt that he is Quite as far up the Slugging Heights as Crawford is. Cravath'8 margin of extra bases goodly portion of these four-sackers lor tne women a oi uta.in i 5 7 ricades. Crawford, with all his slugging ability, has only belted four home runs in American League parks while Cravath has piled up 21.

So there is a margin of 68 extra bases provided for Gabby by the home-run route where he had shorter fences to fire at. The extra base advantage in the National League, due to briefer pasturage in many of the parks, is shown in the fact that in addition to Cravath, Saier, Long, Doyle, Hinchman, Wagner and Cy Williams have hit the greater totals than Cobb, Jackson and Speaker. Yet no one would accuse several of these estimable athletes of being harder hitters than the A. L. three mentioned a line or two above.

THE HOME KIN OUTPUT. There Isn't probably any great difference in the smashing ability, of the two circuits. If there is the margin is hardly against such batting eyes as those possessed by Crawford, Cobb, Collins, Jackson, Speaker, Fournier, Lewis and Veach. Yet to date the National League has amassed 63 home runs against Heat Causes let Up In Work of Pitt Squad Football Men Excused After Light Drills Visitors Attend Practice Sessions. Srscui.

Tiuiaua to Thb Gazxttb Times. WINDBER, Sept 14. The Mi-tense heat kept practice at a minimum for the Pitt squad today. As usual two sessions were held but the players were excused from the drill before the weather got the better of them. Signal practice occupied most of the program in the morning, three elevens being made up and instructed in the performance of some new plays.

Forward pass formations were empha sized and some snappy work was done in the throwing game. Herron, Carlson and Mat son showed all their old- i time skill in pulling the ball out or the air, while Beatie got a good hand for an overhead catch. Ian Forbes, member of the varsity wrestling squad, came into camp to- day and will remain until the end of the week. Forbe3 wrestles at 125 pounds but is close to 150 at present, Warner has been aided in the coach ing during the past week by E. E.

(Special.) The advent of Kenneth Mc-Cuttheon in the Allegheny College football camp was pleasing to the followers of the local institution. Mc-Cutcheon will assist Director ot Athletics Hammett, taking charge of the scrub team and assisting in the development of the line material. He played a guard position on the Central High team of Pittsburgh, and later went to Cornell where he acquired more knowledge of footbalL He is also a crack field man. Coach Hammett will probably select his quarterback from Miller of Pittsburgh or Drake of Ashtabula, O. At least these two men just now seem to have the preference.
