SANS AALAS WIN
CHAMPIONSHIP

Sam Hop was the happy kid round
the league grounds yesterday afternoon,
for his Aala babies won the champion
ship of the Riverside Junior League
yesterday morning. They beat out the
Chinese Alohas by the close score of
to 4, but miss is good as mile. and
one run is as good as a k4ndred when
1t comes to winning a game.
1t was hard fight all the way
through. Sam was working overtime
and rooted his boys along from the
coacher's box.
Young Leslie did the twirling for the
winners, and handed out fine bunch
of curves to the undoing of the dragon
let's. He allowed but five hits and four
walks and famed five of them to make
up for the bingles, which were all scat
tered
Both teams scored one in the first,
and the winners followed with one in
the third. The Alohas tied in the
fourth, but the Aalas kept ahead after
that and, with single runs in the fifth,
seventh and eighth, had no need to bat
out the ninth. 1t was a fast game
throughout, and the Aalas are to be
congratulated on very plucky vie
tory. The official score was:

SAILORS AND
KEWALOS LEAD
Standing of the Atkinson League.

There were big doings at Atkinson
Park yesterday morning when the Iro-
quois and Kewalos each battled to hold
together in the lead of the series. There
will be big excitement when these
two teams meet as they have neither
of them lost a game as yet in the sec
ond series.
The Kewalos had little trouble in
shutting out the Marines but the Ala
Moanas gave the sailors a bunch of
trouble and were only beaten finally
by the close marrying of 5 to 4. Town
send did the twirling for the victors
and pitched a good game, while Bailey
and Moone alternated for the losers.
Deponte pitched a good game for
the winning Kewalos and his team
seemed to have no trouble in bingling
off Gibson of the Marines, although the
latter famed seven of them and did
not walk player.

for Six innings.

IDENTIFY got ratified There is no get
affair was bad one Other decisions
that We're howled about were close
enough for the umpire to know best.
There was no kicking from the visitors
at any point in the game.
Burns Delivery.
During the first part OF the game
the visitors were working as hard as
they knew and didn It get ahead very
much. Bob was in great shape and
his puzzling delivery was working
great havoc Burns turned out to be
less of a terror than was expected, and
the boys met him courageously and
managed to find him for few bingles
The terrifying thing about Burns
pitching is his quasibalk In throwing
to first 1t is not really balk, but
looks like one, and is simply deadly;
so deadly, in fact, that man on first
is safe only as long as he keeps his
foot glued to the bag.
In winding, Burns does not turn to
the plate, but stands sideways, facing
first base. When he gets ready to
pitch he thrns his face to the plate
about the time his hand is opposite the
center of his body. Before he turns
his head he has perfect right to
throw to first, and he can do this with
lightning speed when it appears GER
tain that he is going to deliver. Will
Desha was caught mapping this way
first rattle out of the box; after that
the locals stayed mighty near the bag
! Early Sensation.
The sensation of the early part OF
the game came in the third, when
Harry Bruins again covered himself
with glory. Brick doubled to left
field and Delehanty came up. He hit
way out between Bruins and Kia, and
It looked like sure double, but Harry
caught on the run and sent to second
| so quickly that Hampton, with an ad
mirable catch. was able to put Graney
running for Brick, out, off his base.
The locals climbed out of a nasty
hole in the fourth. With only one
down, Nick Williams reached third
and was all ready for sprint home
Danzig was safe at first. Then Bob
famed McArdle, and Bliss skied, off a
nice slow one, clean into Kia's hands
Locals Reach Third.
In both the fourth and fifth innings
the locals had men on third, but the
much needed bingle did not come al
the right time. Again in the seventh
Bruins reached the penultimate bag or
a neat sacrifice by Leslie, but Jack
Kia could not swat hard one and wa:
out at first.
The local boys hit several hard ones
to the outfeld, but, strange as it may
seem, there was always fielder there
to catch it. The team work and indi
vidual playing of the Stars is ever
smoother and more brilliant than one
might expect. Time and again the out
felders caught long flies on the run
and the ball seemed to leave thei1
hand on the return almost as soon a!

First Game is Fast.

The first game, between the J. A.
Cs. and the Reach Juniors of the Ka-
lanianaole League, was fast and ex-
citing and was properly cheered by the
hundreds of Japs who thronged the
bleachers The final score was y TO
6 in favor of the Reach boys. These
were the Twilights, but they have
changed their name and expect by this
means to kill the hoodoo which has
been haunting them. This was not a
league fixture. nor viii the game be-
tween the G. A. Cs. and White Sox
next Sunday be one of the scheduled

Batting Worth Watching.

Nick Williams is specially solid at
center field. IF by chance a ball gets
by Delehanty or McArdle, either bat
ted or badly thrown, Nick is always
there and the ball comes back to the
base in mighty quick time. The bat
ting of the visitors is worth watching
on account of the clever placing they
do. They do not hit to the outfeld,
perhaps, much more than the local
players, but when they do the ball in
variably goes where there is nobody
TO stop it, and this IS an exhibition of
the gentle art of bingling in its high
est form.
En- Sue took Sosres' place at the
bat in the ninth and was instrumental
in scoring one of the runs. His great
speed seemed to surprise the visitors,
and Devereaux got the crowd laughing
by his comical gestures when En- Sue
sprinted from second to third.
Old Red Dog was in excellent form
all through the game. He was as
funny-well, as the Miller-Silva go
was; and was good for hearty roars
of laughter whenever he went to bat.
If only the game could have been cut
short at the sixth inning, it would
have been a grand afternoon s enter
tainment As it was, the first part of
the game made up for the disaster that
followed and is enough to give promise
of better things to come on Wednes-

BOSTON'S BEST CUBS WIN AGAIN
For Third Time the White Sox
 Are Beaten.
DOUGHERTY BENCHED

The Cubs by winning from the White Sox yesterday 2-1 made it three v:c- tories to one for the American lea guers. The game was another pitchers battle between Overall and Walsh, the former flaming nine and the latter six. Both pitchers allowed five hits. The White Sox can give the credit of their defeat to Johnny Evers. the Human Crab" whose base running was too high for the Sox Evers scored in the first session on base on balls. a stolen base and two infield outs. In the third he started with a single. went to second when Sheckard walked. to third on Schulte's short hit past Tannehill and scored on an infleld out of Steinfeldt's after Chance had fan ned. The lone Sox run happened along in the fourth. Cole started with a hit, went to second when Messenger walked, to third on PurtelPs sacrifice and scored on Parents grounder to Evers. Pat Dougherty. the pride of Bridgeport, in the first inning objected so strenuously to a strike called on him that he was sent to the bench. Messenger took his position. A crowd of 9,917 saw the contest. This was the last game in which the players share the receipts. which share is $23, ,910.65. If the Cubs win to-day's game the series is ended. The score:

The Flying Dutchman'' has made eight hits good for an average of .38O Jim Delehanty of the Tigers is his closest rival with an average of .S47. Wagner is easily the best base stealer. with eight to his credit. ny" Cobb the Tiger star who was expected to be the sensation of the series. has only swiped two bags
 Detroit expects to enter the largest baseball crowd in it's history to-mor- now when the Tigers and Pirates play the deciding game of the series. All but the general admission tickets were placed on sale to-day and the demand for seats was such as to open the eyes of the officials Of the club and the members of the National Commission. Every reserved seat probably will be goid within a few hours after the sale opens. An order for large block of seats for Pittsburg rooters was re ceived by President Navin and the roofing of the opposing factions prom ises to be one of the interesting feat ures of the contest.
 Tom Jones' the Detroit first base man. was not so seriously injured in his collision with Wilson as was at first thought. He was a bit groggy for several hours after the game but was able tosattend theatre last night. The club physician thinks possibly a rib was practured but has made no announcement to that effect.

fsnecial from United Press,


 Detroit. Oct 15.-No more convincing roof that there is nothing in the ma cure of frame-up connected with the worlds series between the Pittsburg and Detroit clubs could have been se- cured in a years diligent search than the trio of accidents which marked the closing inning of yesterdays bitterly fought contest. The Pirates had an even chance to win and played so des- perately that three of the Detroit play CTS were injured. one of them so badly that he will not be able to participate in the final game of the series to- morrow, It Is dead certainty that no ball player would run the risk of ser ious and possibly fatal injury in a framed up series.
 In the last inning with two men on bases and nobody out Wilson laid down a pretty bunt. Tom Jones was forced to take the throw over the bag and Wilson crashed into him so hard that both were stunned. Wilson re- covered shortly but Jones received an injury to his spine and was uncon- scious for some time. He was carried from the field by his playmates. Ab- stein slid into the plate and cut six inch gash in Catcher Charlie Schmidt s leg in the same half and Wilson end ed the game by spiking Moriarity at third iii the last play of the game.

HOW THEY STAND


 The post season series of ball games was continued yesterday. The Detroits vanquished the Pittsburgs in the worlds championship struggles: the New Yorks were beaten by the Bos- tons. which ended that series. and the Cubs nosed out the White Sox in the internecine strife in Chicago. All three disputes were close, with only one run between winner and loser. The De- troits and Pittsburgs are tied with three victories each and a seventh game will be necessary. This is the closest and most stubbornly fought of any of the worlds championship series. Mullin has registered his second v.c- tory over the Pirates and his work against the National League premiers has earned him a place among the baseball immortals. The results:
 Detroit (A.L), 5: Pittsburg (N.L.), 4. Boston (A.L,), 5; New York (N.L), 4.
 Chicago (N.L), 2; Chicago (A.L.), 1.
