]. EVERS BREAKS INTO
FIELD OF JOURNALISM

CHICAGO, Nov. 5.-Not satisfied with
a fat job as keystone sacker for the
worlds champion baseball team and the
proprietor of Troy shoe store, John j.
Evers is casting an anchor to windward
by breaking into the newspaper game. In
letter to President Murphy yesterday
Evers announced he had listened to the
tempter and was writing a story to be
published tomorrow by an eastern paper.
If John of Troy can write as fast as he
thinks. and in the same dry, Celtic vein,
he will find plenty of opportunities.
President Murphy also received the
drawing for the worlds medal design,
there being slight changes from the orig
inal sketch. 1t was found difficult to re-
tain the idea of a cub bears head in
the middle of the design without obscur-
ing other features, consequently the cub
is elevated nearly to the top of the de-
sign and the diamond will be set in the
center of the raised portion, representing
the earth instead of the cubs mouth.
Both the Cub owner and Secretary
Thomas are rushing the work Of closing
up the years business in order to take
short vacations beginning next week.
President Murphy plans to spend his va
cation in and near his former home in
Ohio, and Secretary Thomas will make
an auto trip to Dayton and return If the
weather remains good.
A letter from Jimmy Sebring informed
President Murphy he had made applica-
tion again to the national commission
for reinstatement in the hope that time
had softened the hearts of the commits
sioners. Sebring informed the Cub exec
utive his wife was entirely recovered from
the sickness which caused all his trou-
BILE, and that he was anxious to play
ball with the worlds champions. The
Chicago club has retained claim to
Sebring's service in case he ever is de-
clared eligible to play with any other
league than the Tri-State, to which he
was relegated on the charge of contract
inmning

sHERWlN's KICKING MAY
WIN FOR DARTMOUTH

HANOVER, N. H., Nov. 5-Dartmouth's 3
practice today showed every available man on
the field, the work being made stiffer because
of the past two days rest account of
weather conditions. 5herwin in today's prao-
tice played left tackle on the varsity and made
a pretty drop kick for goal from the 4o-yard
line. Sherwin will probably get daily practice
should Glaze be injured In any way Sherwin
will do the goal kicking in the Harvard con-
test. Just now Ingersoll and Rich are alter
mating in the punting. The development of
Sherwin is part OF the plan OF the coaches to
have a good man ready to substitute In any
situation.
r. Bankart, who was injured IN the Maine
game, was In uniform today for the first time
and played against Brisse. Bankart had ex-
perience In playing this position at Pennsylva-
MIA two years ago. and, IN fact, can play any
OF the line positions

POLICE CLOSE DOORS OF
ROCHESTER, FIGHT CLUB

Chief of Police Hayden of Rochester, N.
Y, has stopped several fights in that city
recently, and now he says that the club
doors can never be opened for fistic en-
counters as long as he is in office.
The refusal of the police to permit
bouts in that city is jolt not only to
fans of Rochester but Of Buffalo as well,
as many sports from the latter city have
been going to Rochester for the fun.
