CITY LEAGUE
 WON'T EXTEND
 BALL SEASON
St. Joes and YOsts Refuse to Play Proposed Extra
 Games
(By Ira HaII.)

Manager Jack Halpin of the Black Rocks missed his train connections from New York early last evening and could not attend the special called meeting of the City League. Halpin was an attendant at the Chicago-NeW York game at the Polo Grounds, and pulled hard for the Giants to trim those pesky Cubs. President Veness was also among the absentees As matters to come before the gathering were too important, a postponefnent was agreed upon till Friday evening of this week.
 The three managers present repre- senting the Joes, Eagles and the Yosts held sidewalk session. Through their remarks considerable new light is thrown upon the St. Joseph contro- versy. It is learned that the league directors would have gladly granted the Joes permission to postpone their game with the Yosts for last Sunday had the Joes presented their petition to the meeting in proper spirit. The Joes did not bring in their request til two days before the scheduled con- test, while upon questioning the dlrec- tors learned that all the members Of the Joes did not intend to attend the outing of the temperance association, but that some of them were to play with an out of town club. Consider ing these conditions, the directors threw down their request and ordered the game played.
 However, this matter seems to have blown over, for last evening the Joes and Yosts representatives agreed to play their disputed contest at Yost Field, Sept. 3.
 From the spirit of the three manag- CTS it is quite probable that the league will rescind action taken at the last to extend the schedule another series So much unfavorable comment has been heard from disinterested par ties that the directors have about de- cided to change their attitude. The of the Joes that they would not consider an extension and fearing that the league might become disrupt ed also led up to the change of heart.
 The closeness of the race and the importance of winning all games can be gauged through a glance at the standing of the clubs:

Next Sundays games are of the ut most importance, the Rocks meeting the Yosts at Yost Field, and the Joes tackling the Eagles at St. Joseph Oval.
 The three leading clubs have chance for the bunting, the Eagles be- ing the only club out of it. A win will put the tail enders in the 300 class, the mark which they have been striving to reach all reason. The po- sition the Rocks are to enjoy at the end of the season depends entirely up on the Yost club. The Rocks will have to. grab a win if they want to remain in the race as loss will send them tumbling out of the race. The Joes to maintain their position will have to win their games Sunday with the Eagles, and the following Sunday with the Yosts. An even break and a win for the Rocks over the Yosts would put the two teams on an equal ity, necessitatfng a series of games to settle the championship.
 As matters now stand the three leading clubs have chance for Che gonfalon. As the Marquis of Queens bury would say if he were here, "the Rocks, the .Joes and the Yosts are bally ball tOssers.'' The clubs are primed up for the fray ready to grasp at every straw, playing the. game to win, and giving the spectators the fin est article of ball ever presented by semi-pro players in the city.

CRANE HITS COLLEGES AGAIN.

CHICAGO, Oct 2l.-Severe strict
uros by r. r. Crane directed recent
ly at universities and colleges of the
country, and particularly assailing
the technical schools of Illinois and
Michigan, have appeared in a pamph-
let published by the Chicago foe of
higher education. In the pamphlet he
declares that the alleged demand on
the part of manufacturers for techni-
cally trained young men is a gigantic
fraud.
THE demand for boys trained in
technical schools" says the writer, lis
nothing short of a gigantic fraud and
worthy of no consideration. The two
worst sinners in this matter are the
universities of Illinois and of Michi-
gan. Although Michigan is by all
odds the leading state in the manu-
facture of automobiles and there are
many large manufacturing towns in
the vicinity of Ann Arbor the list of
manufacturers employing technical
graduates furnished by that univer-
sity does not contain the name of a
single prominent concern, with the
exception of the American Radiator
Company at Detroit, This one con.
