THEY'RE OFF in THE NEWARK LEAGUE!
M'lNTYRE MAY PLAY
WITH N. Y. AMERICANS.

Matty Mcintyre. the great outfielder of
the Detroit club, professional rival and
personal enemy of Ty Cobb, may wear a
New York uniform next spring If the leg
which he injured early last season shows
that 1t is as strong as ever.
Mcintyre, one of the greatest outfielders
and hest hitters in the business, dropped
out of sight temporarily last season when
he played In only thirty games. He was
injured early, and by the time he was
ready to don his uniform once more, Jen-
nings's trio of Jones, Crawford and Cobb
was working so well that he did not make
any change.
1t is almost a certainty that Mcintyre
will not be with the Tigers next spring, as
he and Cobb are bitter personal enemies,
and Jennings undoubtedly feels that II
would be good for the morals of the team
If one of them were used in a profitable
trade. As ii is a cinch that Cobb will be
retained, this points to Mcintyre.
Mcintyre would like to play in New
York, as his home is on Staten Island,
where be has lived all his life. In thu
Yankee outfield he would improve the
playing strength of the team Immensely,
and, added to this. be is a smart hitter ana
a cool, skillful and daring base runner. He
would be invaluable in steadying Griffs
youngsters on the bases.
MyIntyre is now on his way TO Cub,
with a transforming club. One of Griff's
scouts will watch his work on the island.
and If the leg does not look troublesome a
deal for his services will probably g.
through.

WANT JEFF

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 5.-If Jim JEFF
fries ever intends to enter the ring again
he certainly will not likely sidestep the
proposition the fight promoters are going
to offer him to meet Jack johnson. John
sons easy victory. although over a COM
paratively unknown and novice fighter, has
stirred up the fighting fans of Frisco, and
they all hum for a bout between the big
heavyweight champion and the negro
Jimmy Coffroth has announced that he will
leave today or tomorrow for Los Angeles,
where he will see Jeffrjes and put the
proposition up to the champion In such a
straight manner that he will either have
10 emerge from retirement or pass up the
fighting game forever.
Coffroth is prepared to meet any demand
the big fellow makes as to the purse for
the bout, and on his part Johnson stands
ready to fight winner take all or to divide
the money In any manner that Is wanted
by J~effries. In addition to the. purse
money. Coffroth is. willing to oYer Jeffries
other inducements that will net the chani-
pion a fair-sized fortune for1the one fight.
Among the other tempting bats that will
be dangled before the eyes Of JEFF will be
a lions share Of the money made through
the receipts of the moving pictures Of the
fight.
While Coffroth has not said what he is
willing to offer in the way of a purse, it is
understood that he can go as far as 50,000
and this with other coin that Jeffries would
be able to gather would bring his earnings
up to more than 500, 900 should he succeed
In beating the husky colored man.
So well satisfied Is Coffroth that he will
be able to get Jeffries to Renter the ring
that he is already planning what he viii
do to make the holding of the battle 4

his signature to the articles Coffrothss

so as to provide seats for twice as many
people as 1t holds now. The Colma arena
Is but twenty minutes ride from this city.
Racing will be in full blast at Oakland
and Los Angeles at the time the light will
be held, and the contest will draw thou
sands of the race track people, as well as
the usual crowd that this city supplies to
all big fights. In addition. a fight of this
Importance will draw hundreds from far
away places that would not turn out for
any contest of less Importance.
johnson made a great showing in his
fight with Flynn, a fshowing that boosted
his stock a lot, and that proved to coast
experts that he is really in line for a
chance at the top honors of the heavy
weight division. johnson knocked Flynn
out in the eleventh round and did the job
In A thoroughly workmanlike manner.
That he could have put the Pueblo fighter
out sooner is sure. but there was no oc-
easlon for hurry, as he had forty-ive
rounds in which TO do the trick.
Flynn, although outweighed by johnson.
tried to carry the fight to the colored man
and made a fair showing. Still. at no
time did he have any advantage over his
opponent.

BASEBALL FATALITIES.
Newark Boy Among Victims This Year
Fewer Number of Accidents.

There We're four deaths the past season
directly traceable to the national game
though accidents were more numerous. In
both killed and injured the season of 1867
had far less of both than the year pre-

race in the American League and the in

weeks of the season, there is no record of
a partisan of any of the contending teams
s%uccumbing to the excitement Of the game.
1t will be noticed that not one of the
deaths was that of a professional player.

NEW YORK, Nov. DULLES Ravuillier,

calls a 'canot yoiture," at the Madison
Square Garden automobile exhibition and
ut Washington. The machine, which is
practically an auto for land and water
travel. has the appearance Of a lifeboat OIL
wheels, and can go, it is said, at a speed
of forty miles an hour on land and nine
teen knots an hour on water.
Mr.. Ravuillier has succeeded in bringing
his invention before the French naval au-
thorities, which resulted in an order for
sixty machines, khich will be placed at
different life saving stations along the
coast of France. 1t is covered like a canoe,
with al opening in the centre, to contain
the operators, and the wheels are rubber
tired like a motor car. In speaking of the
merits of his machine Mr.. Ravuillier said
that 1t would ride out the heaviest seas,
could not capsize. and would AXE the
water like a duck when launched from the
beach.

WILLIAMS COLLEGE TO
HAVE FIELD BUILDING.
No Action Against Professional Ball
Players-H, S. Dodd, of Glen Ridge,
One of Tennis Managers.

Especial TO the Evening Start
WILLIAMSToWN, Mass, Nov. Sat
the last meeting of the athletic council Of
Williams College plans for building a field
athletic house were formally adopted. The
council voted to set aside the sum of 50. 500.
which will be used to form the nucleus of
a fund TO be officially known as 1.-THE
Weston Field building fund" the object
of which is to provide a suitable field house
on Weston Field. Such a building as is
contemplated will cost about 5000, and the
fund will have to be Increased to the re-
quired amount by annual additions by the
council and alumni subscriptions before
work on the house will be begun. 1t will
probably be located on the north side Of
tine field to the east of the main entrance.
The athletic council passed the following
resolutions unanimously. In regard 10 the
charges of professional ball playing made
against several Williams players:
Definite charges having been mnde
through the public press against several
members of the Williams's ball team Tia
they had violated the eligibility rule in
having played for MONEY during the past
summer
THE Williams College athletic council
on investigating those charges and upon
receiving the word of honor of each of the
men charged that he had not received n
remuneration direct or Indirect for SO
doing. decided to take no further action
In the matter beyond publishing this state
ment.'
The Williams athletic council has thus
shown hat it does not intend TO take
such stringent action as taken at Dart
mouth earlier in the year.
The athletic council made the following
appointments: Assistant tennis manager.
il. S. Dodd, 1909, of Glen Ridge; assistant
swimming manager, II. H, Pike, 1909, OF

Roseville and Park BOwlers
Score Clean Sweeps in
Opening Matches.
"a HEYRE off in the Newark League,

@R HEY'RE off in the Newark League,
The starting gun in this veteran
bowling organization was fired last
night and four of the twelve teams toed
the mark. Roseville, the runner-up in last
seasons championship race, opened on Its
home alleys with a triple victory over the
Kruger Association, a new conner In the
league, while the Park A. A. bowlers
managed to score a clean sweep on the
alleys of the Forest Hill Field Club.
1t was a fine match that was bowled on
the Roseville alleys. There was a goodly
turnout and the enthusiasm continued
throughout. The first game was the most
exciting. The visitors showed the way by
a fairly good margin until the ninth
frame, when the Rosevilles got to the
front. Brundage had helped his team
along materially by getting in six strikes
in a row for a starter, but a miss and a
split kept him back a bit, though he final
ly got 20S. Coming into the tenth frame
of the first game It was about even. For
the Roseyilles Luff, with a strike in the
ninth, got another in the tenth, and both
Boice and Reiss got in strikes. Schott
doubled in the tenth for the Kruegers
and Dennebaum was there with a spare.
st. John, however, ran into a split and
the visitors about gave up hope. Erler
made his spare for Roseville and Leick
also got a credit for the visitors. When
Brundage ran into a split Coghlan had "a
chance to win by doubling. He secured
only q spare and filed in twenty and the
home team annexed the game. The next
games were easier for the Rosevilles.
Erler was in fine form last night, getting
in marks of 232 and 212, and averaging 20S.
Boice also had a pair of double-century
counts and Brundage and Erler each had

BROOKLYN BOWLERS
WIN 13 OUT OF Ia.

Brooklyn's bowlers made big headway
in the Eastern League competition yester-
day, winning thirteen out of fourteen
games on their home alleys from the Tfen-
ton pin knights. The only game that
went Trenton's way, was the second in
the individual, In which McCrossen beat
out VOORHEES,.
The success was largely due, especially at
night. when the worst work ever done by
Eastern League bowlers in Brooklyn was
exhibited, to the fact that the visitors
rolled even worse than the home pin
knights did. The only bowler really on the
job was Johnny VOORHEES,, and 1t was only
because he got 243 In the first game of the
ive-man match. giving the Brooklyn team
a total of sol, that they won, because the
visitors were only nine pins to the ba6.
Then the Trenton five went to the bad and
totaled but us, and got but S26 in the last
anne. 1t was, Of course, easy enough for
the home five to win under such circum-
stances.
