Celebrities of half dozen American
League clubs were on the visiting
squad, including the redOubtable Tyrus
Cobb Of Detroit, champion batsman Of
the year.
Naturally all eyes were glued on
"Ty," especially when his turn came to
face the pitcher But the strange sur
roundings must have made Cobb just
a wee bit nervous and overanxious, for
he bit at wide and low balls every
time up and accomplished little. When
Fuller Thompson. the Giants latest
pitching recruit, made Cobb pop up an
easy fly in the first inning the general
feeling among the enthusiasts seemed
to be, "Oh, well, that was an accident
Watch him slam it over the fence next
time" But when the next time ar
rived in the third inning TyruS did
even worse. He struck out.
The fifth inning arrived and Thomp-
son got into tight fix when hit,
an error and base on balls filled the
bags, with two out. Then "Ty" Cobb
allowed two strikes to pass by him
unnoticed, swung hard as the third
ball came across. and-Struck out
again, Thereafter Cobb had to endure
a merciless panning from the small
army Of fans"
For the "All-StarS" Doc White of
the Chicago Americans. did the twirl-
ing. He was effective in all but the
eighth inning, when Barber doubled to
center and Smith followed with a
single In the sixth a combination of
errors gave Whites opponents their
other tally.
Thompson twirled winning ball all
the way. He famed nine men in all
and yielded only six scattered hits

AFTER MIDDLEWEIGHT TITLE.
Four Claimants Want Stanley
Kefchel's Crown

CHICAGO, October 1.-THE death of
Stanley ketchel, the pugilist, at Spring
field. Mo. Saturday, has precpitated
the middleweight championship situation
into more or less of a muddle.
Four claimants to the title stand out
prominently, and of these three have
faced the former champion in the ring.
while the fourth would have had the OPP
portunity before long had not ketchefs
life been ended.
This last is Eddie McGoorty Of Osh-
kosh. Wis. The others are former cham
pion Billy Papke of Kewanee, ILL.,, now
in Australia: Frank Klaus of Pittsburg
and Hugo Kelly OF Chicago.
Papke can claim distinction by the fact
that he was one of the very few that
ever beat Ketchel. Pap!le knocked him
out in the twelfth round of bout In
Los Angeles two years ago. This is the
one decisive beating the past champion
suffered in his career, although he was
downed for the count in his battle with
Jack johnson at Colma. Cal, d year ago.
One 6f these claimants for the cham
pionship will probably he eliminated
when Klaus and Mctioorty meet in their
bout at Milwaukee. which was scheduled
for last Friday night, but postponed on
account of McGoorty's condition.

each prOfessed the utmost confidence in
the result of both the opening game and
of the series. While the National League
club has the prestige of former victories
in worlds championship events, and is the
favorite a 10 to 8 in the little betting that
prevails. most of the smaller bets are at
even money, and it is probable that when
the game is begun even money will rule.
1t Is declared that the teams are about
the finest ever developed in their respec-
tive leagues. The Cubs are made up OF
practically the same players that won
the two worlds championships for mi
cago from Detroit in 1907 and 1908. The
Athletics, on the other hand. have only six
players, Pitchers Bender and Plank, First
Baseman Davis and Outfie!ders Murphy,
Hartsel and Lord, of the team which was
the worlds ssries of 1905. The other
players are Young men who joined thu
team since that time.
There was disappointment because each
team will go into the game minus one OF

Cornell had no opponent worthy of the

Dan Reed and his assistants are hopeful
this year for better results than Ithaca
has seen for many moons, and the early
season reports seemed to give reason for
their optimism. The Oberlin game show
ed that there had been a slump. but Cor
nell seems to feel that an annual slump
is a necessary luxury. and there is time

is excellent, and the coaching staff is
better than it has been in years
New York University played loose and
stupid game against Williams, and thus
lost the victory that its general superb

escape with tie score, doubly lucky. for
the accident that deprived the local team

November The last time that Yale lost
to West Point was in 1904. and in that
year the Blue beat Harvard and Prince

different A long run on a tumble and
field goal accounted for the Army s vic
tory while West Point won Saturday In
clean-cut and decisive fashion, 1t being
perfectly obvious to all who saw the
game that the better team won. Yale
met an eleven more highly developed than
its own-an eleven better coached in the
fundamentals or, at least, that had profit
ed better by its coaching-and the inevi-
table result followed
West Point is always a dangerous op-
ponent for any team, and the result sat
urday need not be taken as an ind1ca-
ton of Yale weakness. Army strength Is
probably the true explanation. 1t is not
surprising that it should be So either, for
those who saw the gradual development
of the West Point team last year realized
that Lieut.. Nelly and his assistants were
forging a foot ball machine bound to
be dangerous before the season ended.
The fourth year class had a lot of splen
