Several major league pilots are tagged for the ax and other big time generals will resign before another season rolls toung, if Mrs. Rumor is peddling the right dope. In view of the Chicago fans' con- clusion that "Pants" Rowland can't jin a pennant with a million-dollar |agsr gation, such as the White Sox is supposed to be, and that Joe Tink- er has failed to get anywhere with the Cubs, the chances are that both pilots will be given the gate: It is true that the Cubs have shown very little of the winning stuff under Tinker, but at-the same. time it is considered improbable that the outfit would have done any better through 'with the game, and pur- poses in future to devote his whole time to his grocery business at Lewis- ton, Me. Bill avers that his outside business interests have grown to such proportions that it will ne long- er be possible for him to remain in baseball. Should he make. good his threat to retire it will be a hard blow fon the Red Sox. They might select] a leader from among Jack Barry, | Heinie Wagner, or Patsy Donovan, the Buffalo hero, but there's a heap of difference' between trying out a new manager and having an old} hand, like dependable Bill, at the helm. Owners of the New York National leagiie club declare that McGraw will} continue to manage the team, not- | withstanding the big rumpus during | the last New York-Brooklyn sgfies, | when McGraw is said to have ac-| cused hig Giants of having a treak | of yellow in them as wide as the Yel low Sea. But despite the declaration of 'the club owners the Gotham fans have John "'parcel-posted" for parts unknown. The majority of them be- under another manager. Another angle to Joe's in-bad situation is the remembrance of his desertion of the National league for the Feds. "Tis said that more than one National league magnate is still sore at Sir Joseph for his hurdling act. If this be true, the said magnates undoubt- edly will see to it that the exit of Joe is marked in letters six feet high. In Rowland's case conditions are] different. He is blamed for the back- sliding of the White Sox after they had grapped the topmost rung of the American league pennant ladder. The | white Sox are credited with possess-| ing pastimers of as high class as any to be found on the big league map. | Yet the team has not arrived after | being picked as the right 'number tor | the past two seasons. So it seems | that Rowland's trouble lies in his] failure to make a championship team | out of championship timber. In St. Louis Fielder Jones has| been proclaimed the Moses to lead| the Browns out of the wilderness. | Unless all signs fail Fielder will di- rect the Browns again next year and will have -under his. care'a full- grown, regular big yard outfit. What's on the minds of the Cardi- nals' owners is a mystery. They're not talking. Perhaps Miller Hug-| gins May again lead the Cards and | then again perhaps he may not. In| some quarters it is whispered that the Cards are to be renovated and re- built from pilot to bat boy. Among the other major league clubs in the West there are no out- ward and visible signs at present to indicate any managerial changes. in prospect at Cleveland, Cineinnati, De- troit and Pittsburg. Among the Eastern clubs, it is re- garded as a pretty safe beWfhat new managers will take charge of the New York Giants and the Boston Red Sox. There is also believed to lieve that McGraw will never again boss the Giants. His contract ex- pires this year, and he is said to have flattering offers to pilot other teams. Then again, after that "baling out" in Brooklyn, the Giants and John would be likely to get along together about as harmoniously as a fox ter- rier and a strange cat.

Players in Trenches Are Not Included in Reservation. i din A new rule in connection with the| reservation of players in the National Hockey Association comes in force this year. All players who are in the | trenches or in training remain the property of the clubs to which they formerly belonged and their contracts are simply filed with the league presi- dent. In sending out reservation con- tracts yesterday, Business Manager Shaughnessy mailed those of Broad- bent, Graham, Wilson and Duford to the league headquarters in Montreal. The first three have been on active service for over a year, while Duford is now with a battery ready for over- seas, All players must be forwarded contracts on 'or before October 15th in order to retain them as club prop- erty. It is interesting to note the Ot- tawas forwarded Art Ross his con- tract, though Arthur has been men- tioned as a ible manager of the Wanderer team this season. It is hardly likely he would return to Ot- tawa again at war time figures. The N. H. A. meets next Saturday, when it will name its chief executive.

Although it has been de- nied by all concerned, some of the wise ones still persist that President Haughton will resign and allow Manager George Stallings to tacgle the job of president of the Braves. Should this dope run true, Fred .

When Fergus Cutling Club Was Or- ganized 82 Years Ago. Fergus boasts the oldest curling club in Ontario and the second old- est in Canada. The chub has just hell its eighty-second anmoumal election, and looks forward to another season of sport on the ice. . . Fergus was settled in 1834 by a small colony of Scottish f ers, who brought their national game with them. The earlier games were played on the Grand River. Instead of the polished curling stones of later years these hardy' pioneers used bjocks of wood cut from manie logs. / Some of these "stones" are gtill to be seen here, The only older curlog club in Canada is one form- ed at Montreal a short time before the club was organized. Seven years age Fergus Curling Club celebrated 4 its diamond jubilee with a tourna- ment which lasted three days and nights, and was attended by many of the best players in Canada. Spectacled Pitcher"s Record. Lea Meadows, the spectacled pitch- er of the St. Louis Cardinals, may not be the best heaver in the world, but he is a record breaker neverthe- less. Unofficial records show that Meadows has started something like 50 games in the 1916 season and in 30 of them he has been jerked from the mound because he was going so badly. This is no doubt a record in this respect. In spite of his disposi- tion to go badly before the end of the allotted nine innings, Meadows has secured just about an even break in the matter of games won and lost, 'and in point of effectiveness outranks -- With Joe Evans on third base, Bobby Vaughn, the former Toronto infielder, has been relegated to the bench by the Portland management. Vaughn was with the Federals. Members of the Chicago American National League clubs wil as their share of the city series receipts, The purse exceeds the amount di- vided last year by $4,000.

Jim Thorpe took the base-stealing honors. Ray Demmitt, formerly with the Leafs, was the leader in total bases with 275. - Pal- mero and Luque, the two Cubans, both former Leafs, were among the leading pitchers. Jimmy Kelly, a Baltimore semi- pro pitcher, 'will be given a trial by the Montreal Royals next spring. He has a wonderful record this season. Jimmy Middleton, now a member of the New York Giant pitching staff, but who played with Bil Clymer's champion Louisville team all season, was the leading- pitcher of the American Association Jean Dubuc, the oldest member of the Detroit pitching staff, has been sold to the Chatanooga ¢lub of the Southern League.
