M'GINNITY'S SERVICES
Joe, However, Is Said to Be Trying to Buy
Control of Terre Haute Club of Cen
trail League Barrow's Big League Bee.

@Ex-Manager Joe McGinnity. late of
the Newark club, is considering sew
eral offers he has received from big
league managers, but to date has
made no arrangements for his future
in baseball.
-0ne offer. which Joe has given more
than usual attention, comes from
Frank J. Navin, president of the De-
troit club. and owner of the Provi-
dence club, of the International
League.
Navin has made McGinnity a
tempting proposition, as the Detroit
team was sadly in need of pitching
material last season. Navin probably
VENTS Joe to pitch now and then
against certain clubs, and perhaps to
coach the young Fingers on Hughey
Jennings's staff.
= Those who are close to McGinnlty
say that the Iron Man. may accept
this proposition, unless he a BUY
into the Terre Haute club, of the
Central League, a club controlled by
a close friend of H. Clay Smith.
Among other big league offers Jpe
has received is one that m from
Clark Griffith, of the Washington
club. The big league managers think
that McGinnity will not only win
many games in the big leagues, but
his coaching of youngsters would be
Invaluable.
President Sam Lichtenhein. of the
Montreal club, made an offer to Joe
McGinnity at the International
League ~conclave two weeks ago.
Joe's terms did not quite satisfy
L~Iehtenhein. however, as Joe wanted
@ bonus for signing. Joe is privi-
legged to sign wherever he wants TO,
and International League managers
have no claim whatever on MIN. II
he does sign with a club in the Inter
national League. any money ne re-
celves for a%ppending his signature
will be his own, and the Newark club
will have no claim on the waiver
basis.

The main wrestling bout of the eve

night win bring together Jack Niiot,
instructor of wrestling at the City
Athletic Club. of New York, also at
the Columbia University, and Ed
Sweeney, of Montreal. Nifot is one OF

game, and Sweeney Games from
Canada with a reputation.
George Mehnert, of the National
Turn Verein, who is a great favorits
with the wrestling fans, will meet
Joe Mahoney, of Staten Island. in
the preliminary bout. 1t is hard te
get a man at Mehnert's weight, but
in this case George Bothner, who acts
in the capacity of matchmaker, has
succeeded. The bout is expected to
be a good one, with the odds favoring
the local boy. Both contests will &c

rules, with the ~strangle hold barred

Barrow's Big League Bee.
President Ed Barrow sure enough
has the big league bee in his bonnet.
One has to admire Ed for his persist
ence and determination. A New York
writer in referring to jeff Tesreau in
a pre-world's series article said:
'Tesreau's advance into big league
society from an obscure bush league
into a star of the first magnitude in
one year is remarkable"
Ed called the beknighted scribe over
the telephone, and some of the things
he said melted the wire and caused
a general commotion at the central
office of the telephone company. II
want them to understand said Ed,
that the International is right on the
heels of the American and National
leagues, and our first division team
are just as fast as Tom Lynch's of
Ban Johnson's."

Sam Lichtenhein in discussing the
salary limit which will be adopted by
the league this winter as a part of
the agreement whereby the Interna-

fication, says: 81 have argued all
along that as long as we have sala-
ries bigger than most of the big
league clubs the four second division
clubs will lose money. ! know that
we will adopt both a salary limit

VARSITY GOES
DOWN TO FIRST DEFEAT
Picked Team from Heffs and Herring's Scrubs Accomplish
What No Other Team Has Done This Year by Putting Ball
Over Line Once.

PRINCETON, Oct. 23.-The Prince
ton varsity tasted defeat in practise
yesterday afternoon for the first
time this year. A picked team from
Heff's and Herring scrubs and a few
of the graduate coaches proved
strong enough TO do what no other
eleven seen nere this season has been
able to even approximate and scored
one tally without allowing the varsity
to score,
For some time the coaches have
longed to see their charges given a
thorough beating, just to convince
them that it can be done, for past
records show that almost as many
big games have been lost by Prince
ton on account of overconfidence as
of weakness. Failing TO find this sat-
isfaction from desired sources, some
of them determined to have it done
il they had to do it themselves. y
So Yesterday four of the most ia
nous 'old" stars Joined the scrub.
"Tom'' Wilson, one of the mainstays
of last years championship line,
went in as tackle, and his teammate,
Joe Duff, an All-American guard,
thought it would be fun to show the
boys how IL used to be done, n the
varsity guards were kept on the run
most of the time. Coach Cunning

PLAYED fullback, and halfback was
taken by Thompson, a former All
Western backfelder, and champion
all-round athlete of the country. The
scrimmage lasted for an hour and a
quarter, with frequent interruptions
for individual instruction. The var
sity was kept on the defense most
of the time and an unlimited number
of downs was allowed the scrubs, whC
were rarely compelled to accept this
handicap.
Captain Pendleton and Eddie
Trenkman were kept on the side llpeS
throughout the scrimmase, but ran
through the signals with the team. II
Waller and Wight took the wing pc
sitions, giving Andrews and F
.Trenkman a rest. A punting practise
kept the men on the field until after
dark.

Milton McNamee, Of the Tuxedo

of the fact that each was charged

better. under these conditions, marks
a creditable performance.
There were not a few TALES in the

several bowlers, who were close to the
