If the Indians show their usual re-
versal of form, the Kansas City Blues
will be in danger of losing a ball
game when they tackle the redmen at
Hubinger lot tomorrow, Weak teams
can beat the life out of the Indians
with ease. but strong club finds it
mighty hard job to win from them.
At last the Indians have a game
from Monmouth to their credit and
are considerably puffed UP over the
fact. Out of twelve games played
V 18th the Browns, eleven of. them have
been defeats and this has ranked in
the hearts of all the men. They say
that with the game won from the

Darwin describes a trick played on
a monkey to show its intelligence.
Lumps of sugar wrapped in paper were
first given to him. Then for sugar a
live wasp was substituted, but after
meeting with an unpleasant experience
from the wasp the monkey put the
next package to his ear to learn II 1t

showed that the monkey had memory
and considerable wisdom and had dis
covered that a wasp buzzes when

Charley Stengel Recruit Who
Has Made Good in Big League

The Kankakee manager did not
appreciate the youngsters worth,
and later in 1910 he was shifted to
Shelbyville. He was with the Au-
rora club in 1911, and it was then
that he first attracted the atten-
ton of one of President Fbbets'
scouts, and the latter drafted him
Tor the Brooklyn club But Stem
gel was not fixed even then. Eb-
bets could find no opening for him
in the Superba outfield and re-
leased him to the Toronto club.
Manager Joe Kelley passed the
youngster along to the Montgomery
club, of the Southern league. It
'was in the Alabama capital that
the much shifted youth first began
to shine, and then he forced his
ability to be recognized.
StengeI Attracted Scouts.
His heavy batting and good all
around play attracted the atten-
ton of many scouts of big league
clubs and he was in demand for the
first time in his career. But the
Brooklyn club, by reason of the in
tricacies that surrounded baseball
and minor league players at the
time, still held claim to his sery-
ices, and when the Montgomery
club paid off at the close of the
Southern league season President
Ebbets recalled the youngster and
ne reported at Washington park
September H. giving him the OPP
portunity of making his sensa-
tional debut
1t appears now as if he was at last
firmly fixed as a regular on the
Brooklyn team.
He was played in center field by
Manager Dahlen and Immediately
showed his worth. His fielding was
up to high class right from the
start. He made an excellent side
partner to the speedy Zach Wheat,
who had long needed an associate
fielder who could cover as much
ground as he can.
1t was in batting, though. that
Stengel flashed. He surely had the
punch. He made three home runs
that were sandwiched in among
the eighteen safe hits he gathered
in the sixteen games He also
made nine runs. His batting av-
erage was 1888 His record with
the Superbas at bat was:
Games played, Is; at bat. "a runs.
3; base hits, is; home runs 3: av-
erage, 1913.
Stengel is a left-handed batter
and thrower. He has a good arm
and is fairly fast on the bases.
He will All in with the Superoas
next year in great shape. The play
er with the punch is always Il val
liable man to any club and Stengel
has demonstrated that he can sting
the ball.

MOTOR RACES At

TIME Atlanta Motorcycle club
will hold its second race
meet of the season Saturday
afternoon at Piedmont park. Every
good amateur and professional
rider in this neck of the woods will
ride and the event is sure to sur
pass the corlling program of sports
that the club gave about five weeks
ago.
The best thing about the Motor
cycle club is that they run their
races for the pleasure they get out
of it. They don't charge the spec
tator blooming cent. At the last
meet over 5000 persons saw the
races, and it is expected that twice
that number will be ON hand Sat

The track has been rolled this
time and will be as hard as the
proverbial rock At the last meet,
on a track that was knee deep in
dust. Harry Glenn rode the track in
half a second slower than the

Worked Hard TO Succeed.
Stengel was obliged to take mis-
lime and to go through many dis
couraging experiences before he
reached the goal of his ambition
and became a regular player on a
big league team. The first record
obtainable Of him is when he went
on trial with the Kansas City club
in the spring of 1910. He did not
make a very good impression with
owner Tebeau and he was released
10 the Kankakee club in April of
that year. 1t was evident by his
early release that he was not given
a fair chance to demonstrate his
ability.
