O'Rourke-Papks Wants Another Chance at Ketchel

on October he held the Tigers down
to four hits, Pittsburg winning by 4
runs to l. On October 10 he held the
Tigers to six hits, the Pirates taking
the game by runs to 4. In the final
game Saturday the Tigers were shut
out, Adams letting them down with
six hits.
Adams was born May is. 1883, in
Upton. Ind. He started pitching as a
professional with the Parsons team of
the Missouri Kansas league when
John McCloskey, ex-manager Of the
St. Louis Cardinals, dug Adams up
in 1865. He was drafted by st. Louis
but played only one game with the
Cardinals. He started against the Chi
cago Cubs and occupied the mound
just four innings. During that time
the Cubs found him for nine hits and
eight runs.
He was a big. good-natured boy at
the time and too green for major
league company. but he showed much
promise even then. He had a fine
swing and an easy style of delivery
and theA BAH came with a snap and
jump at times. He was called JEFF
fries by the players, as he looks
somewhat like the heavyweight cham
pion, being thickset and dark com
plexioned.
Experts predict a great season for
Adams next year. He has the phys
ique for a long career in the box. He
stands IS feet IL inches and weighs
$50 pounds.

one of the few years that West Point

There is no team in the country, ex-
capt Princeton, which has such a con-
sistent record for scoring on Yale as
has West Point. In Is games played
since the contest became an institu-
ton in 1895 Yale has BANKED the
Army but six times. one of these be-
ing 90 score. The Harvard record
for the same time, leaving out 1895
and 1896, when there were no Yale
Harvard games. is nine shutouts for
the Crimson. In fact in those years
Harvard has scored but 43 points on
Yale, these being divided among three
games. West Point has scored AZ
points OF the YaleArmy games Yale
has won ten. lost one and tied four.
She has scored in every one but the
90 tie of 1907. The record is as fol-

Outside Physicians.

The directors of the New Haven hos
pital last week passed a resolution by
which physicians not members OF the

door of the hospital to any physician
of good standing in the city. or else
