SCHOLARSHIPS LOSE
TO The YIGILANTS
Poor Condition Of Field Handicaps
High School Boys-Score
Is 81 to o.

The VigiIants, independent champions
OF the South, had little trouble defeat
ing the scholastic aggregation yesterday
morning at Union League Park, winning
81 TO o.
The poor condition OF the field handi-
capped the high school lads TO such an
extent that fast work was impossible.
and the heavy Vigilants plowed through
their line at will. Owing to the heavy
Snowfall OF Wednesday night, and tho
report which was circulated hat the
game had been called OFF. several of the
star members of the eleven failed to
show up, with the result that the Vigil
lE nts had a walkaway.
Sunday the Engineers will tackle the
Vigilants at Union League Park. and
this game promises to be one of the
best OF the season. Manager Houston
stated last night that the entire Bridge
Builders eleven would take the field
Sunday against the Nigilants in the best
of condition, and that II his team is
defeated. il will be because the Vigilants
are better team. The officials have
been selected. and all that remains TO
settle the championship of the South is
to stage the game. Lineup and sum-

Prominent Residents of Hughes

Prominent residents of Hughesville,

young men, recently arrested by the
Washington police on the charge of run
ming down and killing Charles Satter-
field with an auto, at Pennsylvania Ave
nue. and Fifteenth Street southeast sew
eral weeks ago. are confident the &C
cused autoists will never be indicted for
the alleged killing
Each of the young men who were ar
rested is we'll known and of good fam
ily' and all bear regulations of honesty
and truthfulness They declare they
know nothing OF the running down OF
Satterteld, and their friends in Hughes
vile aver that the Washington police
have no evidence against the accused
men. The men are at liberty under
heavy bond
Although detectives are confident they
had sufficient evidence on which to ar
rest the five autoists, investigation of
the killing of Satterfield is still being
made. Officials, however, feel confident
that the grand jury will not return in
dictments on the evidence thus far un-
covered. In the lower counties of Mary
land much adverse criticism of the
Washington police has been made. but
officials say that this criticism is being
uttered by persons ignorant of the facts
in the case.

MIDDIES LEAVE
FOR ARMY GAME
Navy Men Back Strong Line and
Say that Team Will
Win.

Annapolis, Md, Nov. 2S.-When the
Navy football party left the Academy
this morning for Philadelphia it was
given a send-off calculated to inspire
every player with the most intense de-
sire to put up a winning tight against the
Army Saturday. Every midshipman in
the institution escorted the football men
to the train. The coaches were nom
committaI al to the outcome of the game
Head Coach Howard has not expressed
himself but Gates and Wheaton have
stated that the team has improved great
" of late and should give a good account
of itself.
The Navy will rely largely upon its
powerful line, much heavier than that of
the Army this year. and generally more
experienced. Back Of the line there is no
player that approaches briilisncy. Still.
there is a large number of iairly good
men, and the Navy plans to keep up a
hard pace and replace any player when
either fatigue or injury prevents him
from keeping in the stride.

DOWN THE THISTLES
Washington Association Football
Team Captures Notable Victory
by 2 to / Score.

The Washington Association football
club won a hard-fought battle from the
hitherto undefeated Thistle eleven, OF
tai City League Park, the game standing
at the end of the two forty-tive minute
halves to l.
The visitors showed strong during Ghe
first part Of the game and after ten
minutes Of play Capt. George Burgess
pa ssed the ball to Jim Hanna by clever
side kick and the latter shot the sphere
through Washington's goal post for a
tally. The locals went scOreless during
the premier half, but took a sudden
brace after the intermission and Bud
Fraser succeeded in getting the ball over
to Dick Hodge, who was playing for
ward, and Dicks anxious toe whacked
the leather through an alleyway Of This
tie players, tying the score.
The ball was then kept floating first to
one goal and then to the other for ten
minutes, Morton, McGinity, Briscoe, and
Wright featuring in clever plays for the
locals, while Burrows, Midget Cox, and
the Hanna brothers were always in evil
dence and saved several goals being
scored on the Orioles.
With only eight minutes of time left
the Washington players succeeded in
pocketing the ball near the enemys
posts, and a clever pass made by Hodge
to Cowan gave that player a chance 10
bring the ball over TO Sam Briggs, who
catapulted the oX-hide pill square be-
tween the Baltimore goal posts. Score,

Willie Ritchie Awarded
Fight in Sixteenth Round
on a Foul Blow.

San Francisco, Nov. 2-Ad wolgast is
no longer champion of the world. He
lost his title by striking Willie Richie
a foul blow in the sixteenth round OF
their battle at DAILY City this afternoon.
Whether Wolgast saw that a knockout
was inevitable and preferred to lose his
laurels the way he did Is an open ques-
ton. The majority of the spectators
believe that the champion was so dazed
that he had nothing left but his fighting
instinct and lsshing out blindly when ne
delivered the punch that cost him his
crown As far as it could be judged
Wolsast was a beaten man anyhow. He
had dropped once after taking right
hand crack on the Jaw. He was stagger-
ing around when he fell again without
being struck. Ritchie, who was plainly
ratified, kept right after Wolgast after
the first knockdown but was unable to
connect cleanly.
It was not so much that Wolgast dis
played cleverness in avoiding Ritchie'
assault as it WIS that Wolgast was
lurchinE and reeling in such manner
that Ritchie could not hit him surely.
It was like aiming at a swinging tar
get. In any case Wolgast staggered
around and Ritchie unloaded volleys OF
punches.
. wolgast's head cleared to some ex-
tent and he fought back. He swung
clumsily at the body, there being neither
direction nor force behind his punches.
He had Ritchie on the ropes once and
kept him there by leaning on him.
RItchie escaped and danced to midring
and planted himself to deliver right
handler. Wolgast reeled toward him and
after q couple of wild lunges, swung his
right into the San Franciscan's groin
This was the blow that caused Richie
10 sink to his knees.
Ritchie fell to his knees with an ex-
preston OF pain on his face; he arose
again but kept in a stopped over posi-
ton. There was no occasion for him to
appeal to Refree Grimm for a ruling. for
the refree had seen what had happened.
Grimm shouldered Wolgast away. held
Ritchie's gloves aloft and announced
that on account of Wolgast's foul tactics
Ritchie had succeeded to the title.

DOMINICAN ENVOY GOES HOME.

Minister Peynado, of the Dominican
Republic. will sail from New York to-
morrow for SantO Domingo City. Owing
to the change Of government, which, il
is believed, has been arranged for by
Congress within the last two days, the
Minister deems it advisable to return to
his country and get more closely in
touch with the situation.
Owing to the fact that the cable to the
north of Santo Domingo City it not
available, owing to the operations of the
revolutionists, messages have to be sent
south to Venezuela and Colombia, and
thence tc the United States. The average
time of transmission for a message from
Washington to Santo Domingo City Is
seventy hours.
Though the Congress was to have met
next Tuesday to accept the resignation
Of President Victoria and his administra-
ton, no actual report of the session and
It's action has yet reached the State De-
Partment.

WolgaSt Loses His Title;
Rivers OutcldSSeS Mdndot
Mexican Comes Back and
Cuts New Orleans Boy to
Pieces in 20 Rounds.

Los Angeles, Cal. Nov. &.-once again
We have the brown hand of Joe Rivers
reaching out TO grab the fellow who
owns the lightweight title.
In the same ring at Vernon wherein he
was beaten by Joe Mandot some two
months ago the Californian "came back
to-day and whipped the game New Or
leans Frenchman. cut him TO bits, as the
old followers of the game say.
There is left no room for argument as
to the question OF superiority between
the little boys. Rivers beat Mandot in
everything that goes to make up a
twenty-round contest, and Referee Ey-
toms act in raising the Mexican's hand
at the finish was unnecessary so far as
the great holiday crowd was concerned.
Every man inside the pavilion, and the
old arena was packed to every wall, had
known for at least a quarter OF an hour
what the verdict would be.
Mandot's claim to recognition as .
championship contender he left inside
the ropes, but he carried with him the
respect and admiration OF that wonder
full gatherings California fight crowd
Joe is game through and through. other
wise the contest would never have gone
into the seventeenth round. In the six
teenth round Mandot fought for the bet
ter part of two minutes In that condi-
tion which is technically described as
knocked out on his feet"
It was a perfectly trained Rivers-not
the fat and dissipated youth Of last La
Dor Day-that conquered the Southern
boxer. With his furious attack of old.
Rivers battered down Mandots defense.
and in a show of cleverness hitherto
concealed, he sidestepped and blocked
the Frenchmans blows until he had
Mandot missing like rank novice.
In the twentieth round Mandot fought
under do or die" orders, when he shook
Rivers up with many a solid punch.
while the latter retreated, stalled, and
grinned at the happy horde OF men in
his corner. realizing that he had won the
fight.
