BASEBALL GOSSIP.

The 1910 season in the western
League is over. The 1853 games sche-
dule was the longest ever played in
the circuit and President Tip O'Neill
says it is an unqualified success. Sioux
City takes the pennant by a rs point
lead. Up until the last few weeks,
however, no one could say but what
Denver would edge out ahead. In mid
season nearly everyone picked the Gr1z-
lilies to win. Just as hard a tight was
on at the other end of the column to
keep out of the cellar. There is some
surprise that Wichita finished above
Omaha and then some that ST. Joseph,
the last addition, should finish ahead
of the former Champions. About To-
peka there has been no doubt where
it would flnis.. The club probably will
be in other hands next season. Nothing
definite has been done as yet by the
committee appointed by the CONNER

Owing to the fact that no Sunday
trains run into Baldwin, the Wash

for Saturday will be played on Fri
day in order that the team may re-
turn to their college town before the
railroad takes its day of rest.
Baker is in its second year of re
established football and is fast build

conference rules. But if it is their in

game Coach Stewart rounded up his
bunch last night at 4 o'clock and I'M

Stewart is still working on his sys-

giving them anything fancy and as

HAS HAD ENOUGH.
Meyer of Guthrie Club Indicated
as ShaW's Successor.
Now Is Assistant Secretary OF
State of Oklahoma.
AROUND THE CIRCUIT.
Parsons, Kan., Among Other
Towns, Wants a Franchise.
Pitcher EARNED to C. H. League
Expected to Be Star.

Guthrie, Ok, Oct. 4.-Since President
]. H. Shaw of the Western Association
has announced that he will retire from
further connection with the affairs of
the association at the coming meeting
at Tulsa, the indications are that Leo
Meyer. president of the Guthrie club
will be selected as his successor.
Meyer is now assistant secretary of
state of Oklahoma, and is the Demo-
cratic nominee for state auditor at the
coming election. He was also selected
as one of the grand trustees of the
Eagles lodge at the recent meeting in
st. Louis.
1t is now assured that Meyer will
again be in control of the Guthrie fran
chise next year, with Howard Price,
manager of the 1909 and 1910 teams, as
manager Both Meyer and Price will
attend the Tulsa meeting to look after
the interests of the Guthrie team. Both
have had wide experience in baseball
affairs.
Umpired in Texas League.
Meyer gained his first baseball ex-
perience on the streets of New YORK
city, but came to Oklahoma by way OF
Texas. He was an umpire in the Texas
League and the owner of the Houston
franchise in the league for three years.
Houston had its first real baseball
under Meyers direction. Price has play
ed and managed teams in the old Mis-
souri, Valley League, KIT. League,
Cotton States League, Southwestern
League, South Central League and
Western Association.
No predictions can be made in re-
gard to the circuit for next year All
of the teams which started the 1910
season will be given a chance to re-
tain their franchises, but there proba-
bly, will be changes. Bernie Garrett,
a Western Association umpire this year
wants to put a team in Springfield
again, while Coffeyville and Parsons
Kan, and Shawnee, LaWton and Chick
asha, Ok, will probably also be appli-
cants for places.
Getting Ready for 1911.
Meyer and Price have begun to line
up their team for next year and have
signed Trad Ferguson of Watonga, son
of Ex-Governor Tom Ferguson, who
was a noted ball player himself in his
younger years.
The ex-governor has an especially
good eye for promising young players
and has boosted several of them into
faster company. Pitcher Roy Davis of
Watonga, who was signed by Guthrie
last year on his recommendation but
farmed to the Central Kansas League
for further seasoning, made a record
there as a no-hit pitcher, and is eX-
pected to be a star in the western AS
sociation next year.
shorty De Witt another Guthrie
pitcher, was also one of the eX-gover-
nor's finds. Young Ferguson will be
tried out either at shortstop or in the
outfield.

club made its famous September squirt.

ing up six successive shutouts, the hit
and-run system was an important fac
tor in the plan of attack. Rival teams
had been seeing the local team bunt
all summer and when the Antelopes
switched to the hit-and-run style it
brought immediate results. Mixing
them up is the only right system. When
the defense is kept guessing, the ball
game is half won. -. Pitcher John
Fox will be Juggling his broken finger

Des Moines News: George Davis
Will be manager of the Des Moines
baseball team in 1911 if he cares to
take the job. President Higgins made
the announcement this morning posi-
tive that if the former White Sox star
would come back next season that he
would be the man to pilot the local
team. I'VE have had hard luck all
season. said the local magnate, ''but
that was not the fault of Manager Da-
Wis, and with an even break of luck
another year 1 haven't the slightest
doubt but that we will lead the way.
However, I consider Davis one of the
greatest baseball men in the game and
If he is given opportunity to better
himself I will not stand in his way"
That Davis is one of the greatest gem
erals ir4 baseball is without question.
Without Davis and his master hand
ling of the infield in 1906 the White
Sox would never have won a pennant
or been given an opportunity at the
worlds championship. Comiskey ac-
corded him equal credit with Fielder
Jones in that great accomplishment of
bringing team that ranked seventh
in midseason to a pennant winner at
the close. That Des Moines dropped
from pennant winner to a seventh
position team was through no fault of
the manager. Conditions existed at
the opening of the season of which the
public had no knowledge. These had
to be overcome. Two great pitchers
who contributed more to last season
success than any. other factor were lost
to the new manager. His infield and
outfield were crippled by sickness and
injuries and the pitching staff proved
complete disappointment. Davis la
bored patiently and built up his team

pletely disorganized again by misfor-
tunes. He never complained, how
ever, but plugged on with persistent
efforts until now, at the very close.

gone for this year Davis built for the
succeeding season and he has a team

of Des Moines will be glad to see him

Thumb District Fair.

All indications are that the Thumb
District Fair to be held in Port Huron
Sept. 13-14-15 and 18th will be a real
hummer. Those at the head of the ven
ture have been devoting their time
thereto unselfshly and are leaving moth
ing undone which would insure the
success of this exposition, the first ever
held solely representative of the varied
resources of the Thumb District.
The District can pride itself on its
stock raising, on its agricultural pro
gress and its manufactures. and this
opportunity to gather into one exposi-
tion these industries giving an educa.
tional lesson of what the Thumb Dis
trict can really do, should induce every
resident who takes pride in his home
district to aid in making this opening
fair success. They should do this
not onlyby their attendance during one
or more of the four days, but also, and
by any means not least, by sending for
exhibition whatever they may bave
the product of their industry, that is
worthy of showing to the outside world,
BY doing this the district will receive
the credit that is its due.

which $4,000 in premiums has been
set aside, $1,000, is to be spent for free
attractions and 5000 hung up in purses
