dan MOELLER AND
JIMMY DYGERT MAY
Be OUT FOR SEASON

ROCHESTER, N. Y, Aug. 2S-Balti-
more and Rochester both had star
players injured Saturday. Pitcher
Jimmy Dygert, of the Birds, hurt the
shoulder of his throwing arm In warm
ing up just before the second contest,
and may not be able to go on the
mound again this season.
Right Fielder Dan Moeller, of the
Hustlers. in sliding to third in the
opening inning of the first engagement,
again dislocated the same shoulder he
put out Of business sliding to second
at Oriole Park several months ago. 1t
took three surgeons to put his shoul-
der back in place and there is hardly
a chance of his donning a Rochester
uniform again this year.
Though the full extent of his injury
is not yet known Dygert was unable
to raise his arm to comb his hair last
night. Doc Adkins made an exam
ination and declared no bones are
broken or out of place. and believes
that a strained tendon may be the
cause of the trouble.

HACKENSCHM|DT
FINISHES RA|N|NG
WITH CONFIDENCE
Work Famous Russian Strong
Man Has Done With DR.. Roller
for Match With Frank G0tch
Labor Day Makes Him Sure of
Victory, He Says.

CHICAGO, Aug. 2s.-With but a few
days to wait, Chicago and the worlds
wrestling fans are impatient for the
greatest wrestling show ever staged In
any land-that between George Hack
enschmidt, the Russian physical mar
vel, and Frank Gotch, of Humboldt,
Iowa, worlds champion. The men meet
at Comiskey's ball park Labor Day,
rain or shine.
Hackenschmidt is rounding off his
training on the north shore. He has
a small camp within a few feet of
Lake Michigan. His advlser-in-chi is
DR.. b. f. Roller. of Seattle, Wash.
physician, ex-football player and a
pretty fair wrestler.
Hackenschmidt and Roller spent
three months in England, where they
trained within a stones throw of salt
water. Hackenschmidt is a waterdog
and spends considerable time in his
favorite element every day.
The theory of Jack Curly, Haeken-
schmidt's manager, In engaging Roller
as trainer is that Haos<enschmidt
would have the benefit of a practising
physician and at the same time a
wrestler, which made an ideal combi-
nation.
Roller toured the country with the
Jeffries-Gotch combination a couple of
years G and is supposed to know
more or less inside stuff of the cham
pion. which also has its advantage.
Whatever the opinion may be of
Rollers wrestling ability, no one can
deny that he is u splendid athlete.
Stripped to the buff he is the replica
of an ancient Greek, tanned to a rich
sepia from living In the open for
months, wearing nothing but q pair of
trunks.
And Roller has Hackenschmidt in
splendid condition. to all appearances.
for a gruelling battle. He has done his
work faithfully. and If appearances
count for anything, the Russian strong
man is fit to wrestle for a crown and
the smiles of his lady fair.
Confidence is the keynote of the
Hacke schmidt camp. Not a man but
believes Gotch is in for a beating, al
though Hackenschmidt admits that be-
fore he wins he will have the hard
est fight he has had in his career.
The struggle will be one of brute
strength and considerable knowledge
of the catch-as-cateh-can game pitted
against speed and science.
Hackenschmidt has the strength II
he can apply 1t. He is prepared to do
or die.
Gotch has unbelievable speed. No
one ever questioned his courage. He is
the tricliest wrestler in the world.
His knowledge of leverage is second to
no ones, and what he doesn't know
about wrestling hasn't been devised.
He is not az strong "a Hapk
Headwork will play a star hand In
the match and 1t is claimed In the
Hackenschmidt camp that Hack is
there with the think stuff all the
time"

[From a STAFF Correspondent.

TORONTO, Aug. 2S.-Petulant, per-
spring n pioued after the two tire
some and tedious nights on the road
that went for nothing because 1t rained
in Newark-the Tigers returned here
this morning to do battle with the
Kelleyites. Most of the boys, after a
light breakfast. hit the hay and batted
a big 1000 in the Morpheus Slumber
League until noon. At best, a night
on the road in a sleeper Is bad.
Young Carlo decamped bag and bag
gage for his home in Chicago yester-
day. Carlo was homesick, In spite of
his bravado, and could not walt for
train time. He hired a taxicab to
bring three of his associates to the
depot to say farewell and never
whimpered when the green-garbed
chauffeur charged him fifty cents a
head for a two-minute ride. Carlo
cannot understand how his contract
which he signed with Newark binds
him to play for Newark next season.
He thinks that because he Is a minor
his contract is not valid. Carlo has
still to learn the difference between
civil law and baseball law. Del How
ard, former Cub, paid a visit here Sat
urday to sign Carlo for the Louisville
Club, which he is managing. He was
disappointed to know hat McGinnity
would reserve the youngster. Besides
being a clever pitcher, Carlo has taken
three trophies as a roller and Ice
skater. He Is pretty much of an all
around athlete, and, above all, has lots
of grit. On Friday In Buffalo Stallings
did everything to rattle him. He jeered
him, called him names and told him
the Herd would knock him out Of the
box. They tried to bunt when they
found that 1t was impossible to hit
them out, and failed. A fan in the
grandstand yelled: Here, Carlo, come
get a bone" Carlo went over, and,
pretending he was agitated, said: 81
wish you wouldn't say that; 1t makes
me terribly nervous" The laugh was
or the fan, and the crowd was with
the Kid thereafter. After the game
~Stallings shook Carlos hand and told
the prodigy he had more grit than all
of the Buffalo pitchers put together.
The Bengals are anxious to clean up
in the two remaining games here for
two reasons. The foremost is their
desire to beat out the Skeeters for
sixth place, and, second, the Jungle
dwellers have captured only two out
of nine games from Toronto In this
city.

five out of eleven. Four out of eleven

Prick DECLARES
HE'LL Be The NEXT
HALF MILE "CHAMP''
BY THE Miller.

half mile champion" said Eddie Prick

season I hope to cop ~Sheppard's title
Frick stated he owed much of his sue
cess to Berry Wefers, the once famous
sprinter and present coach of the
New York A. C.. Prick ran at a great
speed in the recent championships at
Pittsburg, and showed true form in
the half-mlle handicap at the X. of
C. games Saturday. He finished third,
having but eight yards on Melvin Shep-
pard, the scratch man, who finished

As soon as Hal Holland came over
the tape a winner in the 100-yard dash
Saturday several notables of the ath-
letic game ran up to him and took
his hand. You'll surely make the
Olympic team, Hal" was what many
said.
Although Mike Devaney finished last
in the two-mile special invitation Sat
urday, he deserves much credit for
finishing. Devaney had been ill
TIN oughout the past week. At the end
of the race Devaney had to be carried
to dressing quarters.

runner, represented the New York A.

finished third In his heat of the 800

the final.
The crack negro sprinter, Malcolm
Smith, of the Owl F. c., looks like a
sure conner. He ran well in his heat
In the 100-yard event Saturday. He
was barely beaten out of a place in the
final.
Mel Sheppard apparently did not ex-
err himself In the half-mile handicap
Saturday. When asked what the
trouble was Me- said. Awful track"
Kiviat ran a great ace in the one
mile, however, and 1t was only
the hardest kind of running that gave
him a place at his ~favorite distance.
Kiviat wouldn't run in the same
event against his teammate, Mel Shop
pard, Saturday.
Some of the athletic sharps think
John Paul Jones can smash all records
from $50 yards to FIVE miles.

Why didn't Martin Sheridan show
such great form Saturday? Because
he needs to reduce his weight about
twenty pounds. Martin is too fat to
perform in his oldtlme style. He isn't
liable to break any Of his records in
