to the park, put uniforms on, practiced
a few minutes and then changed uni
| forms with bunch of players gather
ed by the former. Nearly all the men
put on the field by Jennings were
amateurs, many being members OF
st. Joseph's college team. Sugden and
Mcclure, former major league catch
ers, who scout for Detroit, were
pressed into service behind the bat and
first base. Detroit's pitcher, Traverse
could do little but float the ball UP to
the plate and the home players banged
his delivery all over the field and
ran bases recklessly.
Manager Mack started with his
regular team except substitute out
fielders. He used three pitchers
Coombs. Brown and Pennock. The
crowd Of 10000 persons took the af-
fair as a joke. At the end Of the
third inning there was a rush by a
couple of thousand bleacherites who
demanded their money back When
this was refused nearly all returned to
their seats. There was much disorder
at the end of the game.

on their representative college eley-

DEEGAN'S SERVICES
Accepted Offer to Play With Nc
Creery's Clan Of Basketball Play
Grs--NOt With the Puritans,
WITH NEPTUNES TUESDAY

John Deegan, the sterling and
clever guard of the Puritan basket
ball team, has decided to accept an
offer and change his berth. Johnny
has consented to play under the
colors of the Riverside Club, the city
champions of basketball last season,
and will not be seen in var toys for
the Puritans this year.
The Puritans have made two or
more attempts to reOrganize this
month and on each occasion Jimmy
Canton, one of the star members of
the team, did not put in an appear
ance. Several other members of the
team We're also absent at the differ
ent sessions. Deegan, it appears,
did not like the way matters were
going with his former teammates
and disguised at the interest shown
by the players who did not show up,
he finally decided to accept an offer
made to him by the Riverside team
through Captain John McCreery and
Manager Dave Wilentz.
What Deegan's appearance will
mean to the Riversides is admitted
to be added strength. Since the
word Puritan first was placed on the
basketball map John has been a
faithful member and has proven of

forwards, the foundation of the
team is laid. The great question
then arises as to who would be
chosen for center. The honors lie
between Schwartz and Reynolds.
The former is no doubt a tower of
strength at the pivot position, while
Reynolds, according to many, is the
classiest basketball tosser that
Igraced local circles. 1t is probable,
however, 1t the Riversides manager
picks the team that Reynolds will
be at the throttle. For handling the
ball and cleverness on the court,
"Bill' is no doubt the best center
in this city and if he is able to keep
going every minute of the game, he
no doubt will make the best man for
the pivot position.
For guards, Bunk Allen, Johnny
Deegan and '"Scutie" Burns would
be the choice. The league meets
Monday night and the local team
will no doubt be represented, accord
ing to present plans.

Dexter Situation.

There is at present an important
topic before the members of the DeX-
ter football eleven which has
brought discussion in the ranks of
every rooter and supporter of football
in this city. The question which the
players, manager, coach and assist
ant manager, cannot seem to settle
is one which all would expect to be a
difficult problem. 1t is whether or
not the Dexter eleven should adopt
the policy, which they have hereto
fore claimed they would accept and
which is to take the best obtainable
men In these parts for the represen-
tative squad. At the time this view
was announced, no one believed any
college stars would pop" up and
offer to play. However, at present
there are two men of great expert
ence who are willing to try for the
local eleven and the question now

will be given a game.
