OLD ORIOLES IN
SPLENDID FORM

BALTIMORE, Md. October 19-With
Hugh Jennings at second base, the. old
pennant-winning Orioles went after the
Eastern Leaguers yesterday like a lot of
Apaches on the war path and beat them,
y to 4. or the three games Of the series,
it was the king pin for the veterans of
bleachers and grand stand. for the old
Oriole spirit that will not be denied was
spread all over the field, and Harry
Hardy, whom Manager Dunn put in to
pitch. had an awful time. The old champs
went at him with fire in their eyes and
Harry could not Withstand the assault
Two-baggers and triples rained all over
the field, and from the start there was no
doubt as to the result.
Wizard Hoffer was on the mound FOR
the first day Of the series, improved as
the game progressed, until toward the end
he was unhittable.
With Hughey Jennings and his whistle
on third base coaching line and Bill Clarke
and his fog horn voice on first they kept
the crowd happy and their teammates
busy dashing around the bases.
Pep ReitZ started out to play third with
Clarke catching, but it was early seen
that Pep was a bit slow, and Bill Clarke
to catch. and, with Doyle at his old place
on first base and Gleason eating them up
at shortstop, the old birds set a pace that
made the youngsters dizzy.
At the take off the old Orioles began
to bat. In the first inning they made
three runs and three hits. Keller started
it with double and Jennings, after dof-
fling his hat to fiattering reception. re-
piled with singing triple. 1t was great
day for the old Oriole batters. Keller and
Jennings each got away with two. while
Joe Kelley led the team with three.
After Hardy had been well trounced for
six innings, Fred Burchell was sent in to
stop the slaughter and he did in a meas
ure, although the old sluggers batted out
a run with two hits in the ninth inning.
The splendid support r. ceived by Hotter
and the fighting spirit back of him
brought the victory. 1t was an old style
victory won in the true old Oriole way,
and the six thousand people were de-
lighted with their afternoons amusement.
The score.

EVANGELICAL LUTHERANS.
Synod of Maryland Convened at
Emmitsburg-Oficers Elected.

EMMITSBURG, Md. October 19.-The
eighty-eighth convention of the Evangeli
cal Lutheran Synod Of Maryland met in
Elias Lut' eran Church here Thursday
evening. By invitation of the president
the synodical sermon was preached by
Rev. DR.. Charles Albert of Philadelphia.
This was followed by q celebration Of the
Holy Communion. The president of the
synod, Rev. Charles Reinewald, welcomed
the synod, and Rev. Or. Owens, for thirty
five years a member of it, responded. This
the previous years being 1887, 1916, 1858,
1870, and 1882
The synod was formally opened yester
day morning. President Reinewald pre-
scented his annual report, which was re-
ferred to a committee.
The election of Officers resulted as fol-
lows: President. Rev. Charles Reinewald
of Emmitsburg; secretary. Rev. j. c.
Bowers Of Baltimore; treasurer, Cornelius
Eckhardt of Washington.
Two churches applied for membership
Zion of Cordova, Nd. and Concordia of
Baltimore. The latter congregation was
formerly connected with the joint synod
of Ohio, but it was recently expelled be-
cause of Its position on the question of
membership in secret societies. 1t has
adopted a new constitution and now seeks
membership in this body. This congrega
ton has had its pulpit supplied by Rev.
Dr. george school Tor the past TWO
months.
Treasurer Eckhardt's report showed re-
ceipts of $50, 7O6.S7, and disbursements of
1921, 1887. leaving a total balance of S5,-
34I.10, distributed among various funds
This report started a protracted discussion
OF the apportionment question, but no de-
cision was reached. and the whole matter
will have consideration at a later session.
One party in the synod favors the per
capita system while another would use
the local expenses of a congregation as
the basis.
Rev. NJ. S. Poulson Of Baltimore pre-
scented the work of the Anti-Saloon
League, asking for access to the pulpits
of the clergy and urging their cooper
alton in what he called 1.-The church in
action against the saloons"
Just before adjournment the Concordia
Church of Baltimore was unanimously
received. At the evening session Rev. +.
r. Wagner of Frostburg spoke on minis
terial education. and Rev. Dr. L. NJ Zim-
norman Of Baltimore on deaconess' work.

on Girl.

CHICAGO, ILL.,. October ia verdict
unique In the annals of the criminal court
was returned yesterday. and a man adj
Judged guilty of an atrocious crime was
given 1.-THE limit of the law" in penalty
Michael Maher was found guilty of mis-
treatment of Jose phine McGuckins, an
eleven-year-old South Chicago girl, and
sentenced to Imprisonment In the Joliet

life verdict for that crime is so rare in
this country that they could remember
no previous one. Following the action of
the jury, Judge Barnes. in whose court the
case was tried. overruled a motion for
ne W trial and one for arrest of judgment
He then sentenced him to the peniten-
tiary. Josephine McGuckns, the victim,
was the daughter of a widowed mother,
in whose home Maher was a boarder.

hustlers of the Eastern High School are
now leading in the championship race Of
the local high schools, having won two
ga mes. The contest, which took place at
the American League Park, brought out
d lalge crowd and was hard-fought, the
wrners scoring but ore touchdown, which
made the final score. to 0.
The game was scheduled to be played at
3 80 o'clock, but it was not started until
n early an hour later, because of protest
entered by the BUSINESS manager against
the p aging of Capt Farmer of Eastern,
whom, it Is alleg I'd, is over the age limit
Ter a player IN the local high school
athletics. Eastern, thereupon, protested
against Dodd. formerly of that school,
who, it is stated. has condition against

Stated with Dodd out OF the game and
Eastern playing under protest.
This sort of work has been INDUCED In
by the local high schools on several oc-
Caslons and has always caused consider
abe trouble and loss OF time. Instead Of
h; wing a rule enacted whereby each team
WOULD be compelled to submit to the OPP
posing manager several days before a list
of the men he intends to play In the
same. and then allowing the other team
until the day before to enter any protest,
they wait until the teams are upon the
fie d, which hurts the sport considerably,
as the spectators have to stand around in
the wintery blasts waiting until some
agreement is arranged.
The Eastern High School eleven, which
has been coached by Kerr. the ALI
Southern" half-back of last years George
oTn team, outplayed the Business boys
N the first half. but weakened in the
secono half. The forward pass and onside
OK was worked successfully by the Cap
it'll Hill team for long gains. Martin,
who did the punting for the Eastern team,
vas easily outkicked by Welcker of the
Business, the latter averaging forty yards
on eact punt.
McG:ffin played fine game for the

halls back, played well for Eastern Park
HIS tackling was the best seen IN the
high school series this season. Time and
tire again he broke through the Eastern
interference and dowIied the runner for a
loss. On the kicks he was always first
down the field and tackled the runner al
most before he could move.
With Business in possession of the ball
near the center of the field Welcker tried
an onside kick. Little McG:ff1n was right
on The job and caught 1t. and with a
su iden turn, dashed around the Business
end for run of forty yards and touch
down. On the kickout, McGffin made
bad punt and Eastern could not try for

ROSSMAN HAS
CINCHED HIS JOB

DETROIT, Mich, October 19.-One of
the most pleasing results of the worlds
series and the race as a whole is that the
first base proposition on the Detroit club
is in all probability settled for several
years, barring accident. Rossman led the
hitters Of the series with eight clean drives
and was the only Tiger able to hit con-
secutively. He ielded his position beauti-
fully. even brilliantly, and the strain
which undid the Tigers seemed to affect
him least OF all of them

some sensational golf in the intercollegi-
ate tournament yesterday at Nassau
Knowles and Peters came through to
the final, and 1t will be Princeton against
Yale today in the thirty-six- hole match
play, with the chances favoring the Blue
Peters survived two remarkable matches
by a plucky uphill fight. Rowland and
Morgan both had opportunities to put
him out. and seemed to have him beaten
when he won by sensational rallies.
Knowles defeated Abbott to win his
place in the semi-final. and had no trou-
BILE with his college mate W. H. LYON.
to get into the final.
In disposing of Abbott Knowles played
some very good golf and won at the fin-
ish. The two, having met in the cham
pionship round two years ago. were ex-
pected to furnish a fine contest. They
turned square and were still even at the
twelfth hole. When Abbott took the thir-
teenth In and halved the next two he
was thought to have won, but Knowles

surprisingly. Knowles had the match

Peters victory over Rowland was as
remarkably won as 1t was surprising.
Rowland went out in AZ and was 8 up
at the turn, when Peters, by a phenom-
email streak came home In IS. He won
five of the next six holes after the turn
and was up at the fifteenth, but How

seventeenth, but he lost the chance to
bring the match square at the home hole
by topping his second shot and was
beaten down.
Morgan, meantime, had no difficulty
winning from Van Week, and met Peters
in the semi-final. Morgan was up at
the turn and took the tenth in 8, but

him there. Jerry Downs did not grow

ball players in the business. Jennings was
disguised with Downs when Jerry sprained

have told Downs on the bench.
