Though there are several players who

ages of the aNtional League, the great
veteran of the Pirates viii undoubtedly
again be the logical leader of the bat
tiers in that league.
Wagner has the distinction of having
led his league with the stick more
often than any player has ever held
this honor in the history of the game.
Wagner is now 80 years old, and yet
he appears to have gone back but lit

lutely no difference in his ability as a
batter. The time, of course, will come
when Wagner will have 10 retire. and

years Wagner has beer drawing a sal

there is not much of a chance of this
figure being increased, it is sure not
to be reduced.

BY SURE SHOT.

One of the best games of the season
is carded at Bayley Hall tonight. when
the representatives of that popular or
ganization will meet the team known
as the Mission Five, of Arlington. The
Missions have played some of the best
combinations in these parts this sea-
son and have given all a battle from
the start. On the other hand, the
Bayleys seem to have at last struck
their right gait, and figure on taking
the contest OH the line of a close
margin. The Branch Brokers re-
ceived a poor start this season, losing
their first four contests. Since then
they nave captuged three out of four,
beating such teams as the crack
Turner's, of Jersey City; Orange Five
and Hamiltons, of Union Hill. The
Bayleys viii line up as follows: Con-
lon, Tyrell and probably Hahn, for
wards; Phil Heery, centre; Gene and
Jim Heery, guards. There will be a
preliminary game.
Manager Charters National Turner's
will nave the Xavier A. A. team, of
New York, to contend with at Turn
Hall, in Bruce street, tonight. The,
Xaviers come well recommended, and
a good game can be assured. The
Turner's are confident of adding an
other win to their big list, however.

Before the big game on Saturday
Yale and Harvard will probably agree
that a fuke goal from the field such
Dartmouth will not be allowed.
Captain Howe will also ask that a
rule be agreed upon by which a cap
tain may have a new ball put into
play whenever he sees fit. There is
no rule covering this point, but Yale
men argue that the result of the
Princeton game would have been diff
ferent il Howe had a dry ball to kick
in trying for goals instead of the
muddy pigskin.
There will be no break between Mich
igan and the University of Pennsyl-
vania. A three-year agreement ex-
pired on Saturday, but there is every
indication that both sides are willing
to renew the athletic pact.
The Thanksgiving Day football game
on Franklin Field will be very inter-
esting from one standpoint. In every
game so far this season Penn has been
the under dog in that her men were
lighter than heir opponents. But it
was very seldom that two such evenly
matched teams as Penn and Cornell
will put in the field nave ever faced
each other. There win hardly be a
pound difference either in the backfeld
or in the line.
Coach Yost had three men to watch
Mercer, especially when Penn had the
ball within the 25-yard line. Cornell
will probably do the same, so it be-
hooves the Penn coaches to get some
one else in line for smashing play out
side of tackle. Kennedy is the man.
