Harry Sage was today engaged for
manager of the Rock Island baseball
team, succeeding Harry Tate, who
will continue as left fielder.
Tate, since his connection with the
local club. has proven himself most
excellent ball player, but has not met
expectations in q managerial capac-
ity. he has been free to confess that
his plans with reference to the affairs
of the team have miscarried. Over a
week ago he suggested to the direc-
tors of the ASSOCIATION that a change
in the management would, in his
opinion, bring better results, and
rendered his resignation.
A conference was held with Sage
and he consented to take the position
on condition that he could return to
his place at Rock leland arsenal at the
close of the baseball season. Salts
factory arrangements in this regard
were made with CommandRnt Blunt
aud today Sage assumed direction of
the team. He will act as manager
and change catcher. He will have
absolute direction of the club.
Bobby Rothermel, who was signed
Saturday. is expected to arrive to-
night from Little Rock, Ark, and
Frank WollIver, another player. who
comes from Parsons, Kas., will be

Series of Errors and Failure TO Hit Bal
Costs Rock Island n Game.
Bloomington captured the third be-
cause Rock Island could neither field
nor hit the ball. The locals seemed
in trance when it was put up to
them to accomplish results. They
could not play the game.
It was bad day for baseball. how
ever. The wind blew hard at times
and harder at others, scooping up
cloud after cloud of dust from the
diamond and twisting popuPs and
high flies into veritable corkscrews.
Not that all of Rock Islands errors
can be excused on this account nor
that it did not affect both sides alike,
but it removes part of the blame
for some of the ragged outfelding, at
least one error at short and one of
Hoy's bad throws across to link in
the teeth of the gale. 1t is at least
charitable to assume that the reason
the visitors did not mako more errors
in the field was that they did not
have so many chances forced upon
them.
Miller threw a steady game aud al
though he was hit freely there would
have been little made off him if the,
support had been good. McCafferty
was very speedy and he proved little
too abstruse for the locals to loosen
things up successfully with the bat.
ALI but one of the wild pitches
charged up to Miller were made when
no one was on base and nothing was
lost by them. Voris umpired fairly,
although he failed to please some OF
the audience. The roofing, next to
the wind, was the feature Of the game.
When there seemed a chance of win
ming in the eighth the noise broke
loose and in the ninth crowd of boys
from the bleachers started into the
field. President Sexton, however.
drilled down the line and by his magic
presence restrained the turbulent
spirits.
How the Locals Scored
This Is the way Rock Islands runs
came in: In the third, after Miller
had died on a dusty one to Brown,
Poor and Hoy were accorded transpor-
tation to first and helped themselves
TO another on a wild pitch. Tate
few. but Poor drilled in and Hoy went
to third. link ended the turn with a
grounder. Arthur scored in the
fourth after Hughes was out, and
had followed his base on
balls with a 2-base hit. Smith sacri-
feed and Miller grounded. link led
off in the sixth with slam that en-
titled him to second. Hughes helped
him on with a sacrifice and Arthur
brought him home with Q hit. Mid
ileton grounded ont to Elsey. who de-
Iiberately passed W. nance to double.
