(By the Associated Press)
JUAREZ, Mexico, Sept, 27. — Can
nons boomed and the bells In the old
mission church clanged at daybreak
on September 1G to usher in Mexico's
anniversary of her independence from
Spain.
Diez sets de Septembre (Soptcmbei
16) is know'n throughout northern
Mexico and the border as the Mexi
can Fourth of July. It Is celebratee
in much the same manner that the
American Independence day Is ob
served and for the same reason.
September 16, 1917, was planned as
i friendly demonstration and "friend
ship fiesta” for the American people
living on the border. The mayor and
ity officials of El Paso. Texas, op
posite here, as well as other civil and
military officials- were invited to at
end the exercises incident to the In
lependcnce Day celebration, and a
lumber of parades of workmen from
he American side of the border took
dace through ihe streets of this his
oric old Mexican town.
The celebration included the firing
>f salutes in honor of the president
,nd other national heroes, the parade
md review of Mexican troops, exer
cises by school children in Liberty
aps and costumes, athletic sports at
he hoppodromos and a bull fight'in
the Plaza de Toros. In the evening
the military band played a concert in
the Plaza of Peace, while the maidens
walked around the park in one direc
tion and the Mexican gallants In the
opposite direction. A big dance at the
theatre or custom house followed, with
the military band furnishing the mu
sic and all of the society of both the
American and Mexican border present.
The celebration is always preceded
by a midnight meeting in the plaza,
when the “grito" or cry of liberty is
given.

VETERANS STILL
NEW YORK. Sept. 27—Old veter
ans, tried In their places—-men who
have learned the game and haven't
forgotten it—are the reasons for Pat
Moran's success year after year with
the Phillies. Starting each season
with a team that scarcely figures as
strong as the others, Moran is always
able to give the best of the League a
stiff fight. This year, while he has
not been close enough to seriously
worry the Giants, he has been pound
ing along behind, ready at any time to
spring out and tear down the McGraw
predominance.
But Pat is the kind of a manager
who would rather have the tried vet
erans than the flashy, chance-taking
youngsters. Nearly every man on the
Philadelphia club is a man who has
played the game for years. Starting
in with first base, there is found a
man who got his first crack at the
National League when Frank Chance
was guiding the cubs, and that was
several seasons ago. John Evers has
been doing most of the second basing
Tor Moran, and the world knows he is
an old timer. Bert Nieoff has done
the rest of it, and the pin feathers
long ago left Bert. Milton Stock was
a member of the Giants when they
won their last pennant. The pitch
ing staff is the newest part of the
whole club, and no one ever has been
heard to accuse Grover Alexander of
being a youngster—that is, not in re
cent years. Oeschger and^Rixey are
competitively new, but both have been
up there several years. Mayer and
lavender are two of the League's old
est fighters.
Bill Killefer was rated a star and
and a veteran when he pulled his
famous double leap to the Feds and
back again. Eddie Burns is a new
comer, but gets little to do. and Adams
is mainly a bullpen workman. In
the outfield George Whitted, a mem
ber of I he braves when they won their
world's championship; Gray Cravath,
who is growing old fast, and Dode
Paskort, a relic of baseball.
And those old boys can hit the ball,
they can think fast and straight and
they can field well enough to makb
the youthfull ones step lively. Ban
croft is the only noticeable young
ster on the team and he fits in mighty
well.
