EASTERN EXPECTS
TO WIN TO-DAY
Business Loses Services of
Crack Linesman.

More hard luck hit the Business High
School football team yesterday when the
coach announced after a hard afternoon s
practice that Neville Black, all-high
school guard last year, would be unable
to play against Eastern this afternoon,
and another shift in the lineup was
found necessary.
1.-TWO weeks ago, during a scrimmage,
Black turned his right ankle. He has
been unable to don togs until yester-
day, and limped so badly that he was
pulled out of the line and sent back to
the dressing room. Black will not be al
lowed to play to-day. but hopes to get
into the Tech game one week from Tues
day.
Eastern had a rousing practice yester-
day, and the boys from Capitol Hill are
more confident than ever of being able
to pull down the long end of the score
against the Stenographers to-day. The
game starts promptly at o'clock, and
is sure to be hard fought and interest
ing.
There is a possibility that Central will
play the Georgetown Preps' on the Hill
toppers' field some time during the week
of the Virginia game. All interhigh
school contests are called of that week
because the GeorgetowR varsity cannot
spare the field and it is understood that
negotiations are pending for a game on
the Preps' field between Central, the
logical scholastic champions of the Dis
trict, and the strong Preps eleven.
Western was unfortunate in being
forced to play Central and Technical
two of the strongest teams, so early in
the season. Had the West End boys
stacked up against the two weaker elev-
ems instead, a much better showing
might have been made against the
leaders.
Basketball has already started at
Business. Section teams are organizing,
and several matches have been played
during the past week.

 Good Golf Match

The first round in the club cham pionship was played at Brooklawn yesterday and brought out some high class golf. The luck of the draw brought R. Abbott and S. D. Bowers together in the first round, while Messrs. c: c. Waldo and c. G. Waldo, Jr., also drew together. The Abbott Bowers match was as close a contest and as fine a match as has been seen on the ground in many a day. MT. Abbott by beating far on the second and third holes became two up, only to lose the next two holes. A long put for five on the 612 yard sixth hole again put him in the lead, which he held until the 12th hole, where after the 11th had been halved in a fine three MT. Bowers drew up even by holing a good put for a four, beating far. AS he was the next in four he was then one up. Poor putting by MT. Bowers made the 14th a half in four, which should have been a win half in five on the long hole agains, the wind, both players being on the green in three. MT. Abbott evened the match by holing good put for a three on the 18th hole, The 17th was halved after MT. Bowers had rim med the hole for a win. This made the match all square starting for the 18th hole. This hole is 32O yards from the putting green, and on the Fourth of July MT. Abbott drove the green and holed a three foot put for a two. In this he repeated his feat of driving for the green. Although MT. Bowers was only 10 yards short MT. Abbott who got his three and earned a well deserved victory by the narrow margin of one up.

Athletics Grab
 Fielder Maggar1
Former Springfield Star Pur' chased by Connie Mack From
 Oakland Club

Harl Maggert, the starry person who disports permanently in left field for the Oaks, was sold to the Philadelphia Athletics yesterday for $1.500, to be delivered at the end of the season, says an Oakland (CaI) paper. The deal has been hanging fire for some time. The outfield of the worlds champions is in need of immediate strengthening. Connie Mack, the shrewdest diamond tactician in the country, realizes his weakness and IS after players who will bolster up the team. Maggert has been recommend ed highly to the Athletic boss. Mag gert is a sterling ball player. He can hit, field and run bases with the best of them and has enough of the reck- less spirit under his belt to become star in the Illuminating society. A dash of recklessness is a necessary requisite nowadays for players aspir- ing to tickle the palate of the flckle Eastern bug. Men like Cobb and Col iins are noted for their daring; in fact MT. Cobb'S utter disregard for the rules of precaution has made him the most valued player on the payroll or Jennings and Navin. Maggert's reck- lessness on the bases last season made him the best bag purloiner on the slope. He has natural speed. Amos Strunk, who glitters in the suburban districts of the illustrious machine of c. Mack, is considered to be very fast man, but he has nothing on Mag gert.
 The fans on the coast will vouch for the. fielding ability of Maggert, who countless times has covered the verdant in remarkably fast time and shared drives that had all the ear marks of base hits. Maggert has been good hitter all his life. Connie Mack was forced to use his persuasive powers in order to land Maggert, as Wolverton was reluctant to part with his brilliant outfielder. ''Maggert has served Oakland faithfully for three seasons" said Wolverton, "and was entitled to promotion. It is wrong for club to hold players when the players are fit for better company and can better themselves financially. Maggert is entitled to go up, though I am very sorry to lose him.

Alexander Proves
 Find of Season
Philies Got Sensational Young Pitcher Fer $75O From
 Syracuse Club

Leading the National league in eff fectiveness if not in the percentages, Alexander the Great, the Phillies' mighty pitcher. has more than made good the boasts of Charley Dooin that the Quakers would uncover the find of the season.
 No pitcher in recent years, not even Russell Ford, has created a greater sensation during his first season in fast company than this Alexander person. With nothing more than the most ordinary looking curves, but with good speed and wonderful con- trol, this youngster has found every club in the league, excepting only Chicago, pretty easy picking.
 And he cost Philadelphia only $750! Several clubs had chances to pur- chase Alexander last season when he was making a record for himself as the winning pitcher of the Syracuse team Of the New York State league. He won twenty-nine games and lost fourteen, ranking seventh in the per- centages. He hit PAS in the forty seven games in which he participated, and proved as fancy a fielder as ever played in the league. He had thirty putouts, 102 assists and only one er- TOT, a remarkable fielding record for a pitcher.
 On the strength of this record the Phillies and the Detroit Tigers put in OraItS TOT n1m. Ph1la deIph1a won out on the draw and the Jungleers lost a pitcher who would probably have Kept them several games ahead of the Athletics.
 Two of the four games Alexander has lost to date were dropped to the Cubs. Boston beat him his first time out on April IS, and Brooklyn won by 3 to score last week Chicago S victories one a 6 to 2 affair and an other a to nose-out, were won on May P and June IT, respectively. Alexander has beaten Boston and Brooklyn four times each, Pittsburg twice, Cincinnati four times, St. Louis twice and New York once.
 It Is a noticeable feature of Alex anders games that most of them have been close, many of them being won by the narrowest of margins Only twice has he shut out his oppo- nents, while four, five and six runs have often been scored off him. But like Matty, he generally wins.

Aviator C0nneau Wins Big European
 Circuit F|igh1
Special from United Press.)

X Paris, July 7--Ensign Conneau, fly ing under the name of Andre Beau mont, won the great European Cir cult race, today, flying from Calais to the Vincennes Aerodrome, 156 miles in 3 hours and 25 minutes.
 The total distance of the nine stages of the race, which took in four na- tions, was nearly $50 miles and Con- neau's time was 5S hours, B minutes and 45 seconds. His actual flying time, however, was only 23 hours, 2 minutes and 39 seconds.
 Conneau's prizes will total more than $50000, chief of which is the s4o,- 900 offered by the Paris Journal un- der the auspices of which the race was held.
 Vidart won the last stage, leaving Calais at 6:o4 and alighting at the finish point at 8:35, after a brief stop at Amiens. The fastest train time between Calias and Paris is hours and 20 minutes.
 Roland Garros was second in the big race his elapsed time being 62:16:27 actual flying time 27:50:36 and Vidart third, with elapsed time of 73:40:5 :52 and actual flying time of 37:55:21.
 Pierre Vedrine. the winner of more individual stages than any other con- testant, injured his machine slightly in alighting at Amiens.
 The birdmen, who have been on a three weeks aerial cruise oyer a large part of Europe. began ascending at Calais for the final flight at 6 o'clock. At intervals of two minutes they headed for Paris, the order of the de- parture being Conneau. Garros. Ved- rine, Gilbert, Kimmerling, Renaux, Barra, Tabutau and Bobba.
 Kimmerling fell when near Calias but returned to the city afoot, got another machine and arrived at Vim cennes at 10:20. Almost every possible atmospheric condition was contended against but no hitch occurred. j. Experts declare that the event has proved that racing by easy stages is altogether practicable.
