CARR WILL NOT JOIN DErRoIT.

INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 2S.-Charley Carr.
manager-first baseman OF the Indianapolis
team during the last two seasons, is now
here and says he will not be a member
of the Detroit American League team next
season, and he is expected to revert to the
indianapolis club. If that Is true, he Will
again serve in the capacity OF first base
man and manager. First. however, all the
clubs in the American and National leagues
must waive claim on him, and this may
not be done, as more than one could use
him to advantage.
First Baseman Claude Rossman, Of the
Detroit Tigers, absolutely clfnched his Job
for next year by his work in the worlds
series. He led both the Detroit and Chi
cago teams in batting with a grand per-
centage of $50 and fielded brilliantly. I'm
less something occurs to put him out OF the
running. 1t is regarded as a certainty that
he will hold down the initial sack i'm

A. A. U. CHAMPIONSHIPS.
National Indoor Games at Madison
Square Garden Friday.

NEW YORK. Oct. 23.-Martin j. Sheri-
dan. of the Irish-American A. c., the all
around champion athlete, will probably
carry off the greatest number of medals at
the indoor championships of the A. A. u.
at Madison Square Garden Friday and Sat-
urday nights. Last year Sheridan was en-
tered in ten events; he got first in five OF
these and broke the record for the eight
pound shot put. This year Sheridan will
be forced harder than ever before to main
tain his supremacy. In the weight vents
he will meet Flanagan, McGrath, Horgan,
Coe. of Boston, and Mitchell, and as all
Of these men have been In training through
ont the summer and are In perfect condi-
finn. there should be some good COMPETE
tons.
In the pole vaults for height and for dis
lance. e. T.. Cooke, the Cornell boy, will
be on hand, with Claude Allen and w.
Happenny. OF Montreal. Cooke won the
national championship in this event at
jamestown In September. Allen won the
METROPOLITAN Association championship at
Travers Island in August and Happenny is
the Canadian champion. When these three
bampions meet in this event the prospects
ara that a new indoor record will be made.
In the hurdle races Harry Hillman, For
rest Smithson and J. j. Ellor will fight
for the supremacy, and the champion will
be forced to make a new record.
Con Leahy, the Olympian, Irish, English
and American champion, will try for a
new title-indoor champion. Leahy's entry
gives this event an international flavor,
and he should be able to win this event
As well as the hop, step and jump.

MONTE CROSS A MANAGER,
Athletics shortstop to. Guide Kansas
City Team Next Season.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 20. = Monte
Cross. the Athletics shortstop, who was
forced to give way to the youthful
Nichols during the last season, has &C
cepted the terms of George Tebeau to
become manager and captain and play
shortstop on the Kansas City American
Association team next year.
Cross had a number of offers for nam
agerial berths, one from New Haven.
Conn, which called for more money
thar at Kansas City. but Cross no doubt
preferred the latter because 1t is In one
of the biggest minor leagues in the
country, and success there would give
him a better reputation than in a small
league like the Connecticut. Monte
should prove successful as a manager
because he knows the game thoroughly
and has had the benefit of a number of
years coaching under the best manager
in the country.
Monte could have remained in fast
company had he cared to. At least four
clubs in the American League could
have used Cross, and on the last trip
of the Atheletics through the West a
report was sent out from Chicago hat
Monte would be found with the White
Sox next year. Washington, Boston
and Detroit would also lay been ready
to take Cross had he cared to remain
in the American League.
When Monte found that he was to be
permanently displaced by Nichols he went
to Manager Mack and asked for his re-
lease. Connie refused, and at first Monte
thought he was being treated harshly.
Mack argued that If he released Cross out
right there would be four or FIVE clubs in
either of the two big leagues who would
be ready to grab Monte.
league club / can make a deal which will
benefit the Athletics, so you pick out the
club and I will get busy on a trade" Is
what Mack told Cross.
Monte then unfolded his idea of becom-
ing a manager, and to this Mr.. Mack
agreed to help Cross in every possible way
and grant him his release, provided the
other clubs would all waive claim. A let
ter setting forth Cross's ambition went
along with the request for waivers on
Monte. and every club waiyed claim under
The condition that Cross was to go to a
minor league.
When the minor league owners found
they could get Cross without paying for
his release there was a scramble to get
him. Tebeau was in town a few weeks
ago. and after a long consultation they
came 10 an understanding, and last week
Tebeau sent Monte a contract. Monte i'm
mediately wired Tebeau that everything
was satisfactory, and that the signed con-
tract would follow some time this week.

SCHOOL
MAY QUIT LEAGUE

A meeting Of the New Jersey Inter
scholastic Athletic Association will be held
today at the Newark High School, and
an important question will be brought be-
fore the various school delegates. This
question is, whether or not the Newark
Montclair game, which Is scheduled for
Friday, shall be played at Newark or at
Montclair. This proposition would seem
to be simple, but it is said that the de-
cision of the delegates will determine
whether or not the Montclair High School
will resign from the New Jersey Inter-
scholastic Athletic Association.
The Montclair management claims that
the' Newark game should be played in
Montclair. inasInuch as they played at
Newark last year. It seems that last year
Montclair played all three league games
away from home, and 1t was decided that
their league schedule for 1907 should read
the same.
The Montclair management has rebelled.
They claim that they must have at least
two home games this year. The East
Orange. game, which was played at East
Orange last year, will be played there
this year, because during the last baseball
season East Orange went to Montclair, but
the home team did not put In its appear
anee. Montclnir has, therefore, agreed tc
play East Orange in that city in football.
The Newark management claims that
Montclair has no right to take this matter
of baseball into football matters, but say
the question should be decided during the
next baseball season.
1t is said that last year Montclair had
NJ home grounds for the season, and
when this years schedule was drawn up
they still had none. SO 1t happened that
these games were scheduled TO be played
away. Now that Montclair has secured
grounds, Manager Alderman is trying to
rearrange the games. a matter which,
Newark claims. falls only in the jurisdic-
ton of the league delegates. Newark
High, however, claims that had Manager
Alderman brought up this point earlier
in the season 1t might have been settled
satisfactorily to both arrangements. AS it
is now, Manager Franzen announces that
he has hired grounds, invited officials and
attended to all other necessary arrange
ments.
If at the league meeting today the dele
gates decide to nave the game played In
Newark, Manager Alderman claims that,
with the sanction of the athletic advisory
committee and of Coach Dixon, no game
will be played Friday, and, furthermore,
Montclair will resign from the league.

Record Pinning in N. J Ma
tional TOurney--Tuxed
A Twice Beaten

The 1904 total rolled by the Iroquois
bowlers in the New Jersey National
tournament on the Tuxedo alleys last
night is probably the highest score ever
registered in competition in this city. The
old M~ontgomerys reached a mark OF 1,132
in an attempt to beat the worlds record
> on Montgomery's alleys five years ago, but
the condition of the alleys was responsible
in a measure for that tally. Billy Noack,
who contributed the highest score to the
I~roquois 1904 total last night, rolled 299 in
that 1.132 game, getting eleven straight
strikes and '9' on his last ball.
The Iroquois score was the feature of
last nights competition, but the surprise
of the series was the double defeat Of the
Tuxedo A team, which has won the cham
pionship each year since the tournament
was organized. The champs are finding
the road this season a little harder than
in. past years. They nave now lost three
out of six games, having been defeated by
the Matinees in the opening series. Hut
tenbach's tribe, after putting up its record
score, fell down in the game with the
Enterprise team, giving the latter two
victories.

PRINCETON, Oct. 23.-An enigma is
possibly the word most fit to describe the
Princeton football team. Considering the
scores the Tiger eleven has run up this
season alone one would jump at the con-
cluslon that the team was a powerful
scoring machine that could not be stopped
short of a victory. Compare the scores
made by the Tigers with those by other
big teams against the same opponents and
the latter are indeed puny. But dissect
these same contests and total up the gains
some of the teams made against the
Tigers and the puzzling character of the
~latter's work begins to crop out.
1t is telling no secret to say that the
Princeton coaches find the matter hard to
solve to their own satisfaction. Naturally,
they are not saying just how strong or
just how weak they really believe their
1907 team to be. That would be an unfair
question to ask them. But when they do

BIG AUTO SHOW

NEW YORK, Oct. 23.-The doors of
tomorrow upon the eighth annual automo-

mobile Club of America. For the ensuing
seven week days the motor Industry in it's
1908 fashions will be under critical in
spections by thousands of visitors. Ameri-
ca Is setting its own styles and forming
its own standards In automobile excellence
this season. Plans were laid long ago for
new models, based on experiences of the
past, and radical departures will be few
and far between.
The tendency on the part of many to
build six-cylinder cars is reflected in the
fact that nineteen types of 'sixes' will be
on exhibition. On the old reliable four
cylinder the majority has pinned its faith,
however. No less than seventy distinct
types of cars will be on view in the differ
emit booths, with sufficient variety In style
to suit the most exacting.
The complete list of vehicles to be ex-
hibited is as follows:
Pleasure C~ars-Acme, A. X, American,
American Mors, American Simplex. Ander-
son Electric. Atlas, Austin. Brush, Cam
eron, Cartercar, Carter, Chadwick, Cleve-

1T is worthy of MINER that no less
than 27 individual exhibitors will show
their products In the Palace. The vast
proportions the industry has assumed NAV
be partially judged by the fact that 209
of these exhibitors are showing accessories.
While the show date is two months
ahead of N previous exhibition Of this
character, and there is diversity Of opinion
between manufacturers and agents as to
the best season of the year to bring out
new models, the early season was chosen,
due consideration. and the success OF
the venture from point of attendance and
business activity promises 10 eclipse any
