BAsE BALL GAMBLERS PAROLED
Pittsburgh Court Fines Only Two Of
Seven Convicted.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
PITTSBURGH, Pa, September 30
The vigorous campaign which was in
stituted by Gov. John X. Tener and
Barney Dreyfus. president of the Pitts
burgh base ball club, working in con-
junction to suppress pool selling on the
results of the national pastime. was
given something Of setback Saturday In
criminal court. when Judges Evans and
Ford. both base ball enthusiasts. paroled
seven men who had been convicted of
pool selling, and fined two others 500
each. Both judges are rabid fans. and
considerable surprise was created when
the seven men were allowed to go on
parole for year.
Assistant District Attorney Rowand in
formed the court that the vigorous cam
paign which has been waged all summer
against base ball pools was begun at the
instance of Gov. John K. Tener and
President Barney Dreyfus of the local
National League team. Rowand declared
that the machinery Of the district attor-
ney's Office had been at work all summer
trying to break up the practice Of selling
pools on the base ball games.
John Yost, Louis Kahn. j. ]. Augustine
George Yinger. d. L. Small and John
Sauer, who were arrested in, various Sec
tons of the county. were all paroled for
one year.
Frank Kessler of Duquesne and Harry
c. Colgan Of Homestead were charged
with selling pools after tAey had been

thrown into Virginia camps by the an
nouncement that Detroit has weakened
! on the draft of Bert Gardin, the south
paw, who pitched good ball for Roanoke
| for two years. OF course, the reason for
| this is not known, but 1t is certain that
Gardin Is ripe for faster company. Some
class IA or A team would find very
clever twirler in this South Carolina lad.
and it Is not at all improbable that Roa-
noke will yet get piece of money for
| his draft.
The talk coming from Newport News of
an effort to be made by Jack Grim, who
managed the Newport News team last
season up to the time the players struck
for their back pay allowing game to be
forfeited to Petersburg before the trou-
BILE was patched up, to transfer that
franchise to Lynchburg is all buncombe
of the worst sort. Newport News seems to
have nothing to fear from the report for
two reasons. First. Lynchburg would
hardly put up enough money to buy uni
forms for a Virginia league tear and,
second, because Jack Grim appears to
have just about as much right to transfer
that franchise as he would to transfer
Portsmouth here.
Although Grim appeared in the role Of
manager for the Shipbuilders. and he
may have been given to understand that
the franchise was his, as far as is known
such transfer was never made. and the
franchise stood through the season In the
name of Abe Horwitz, who made such a
spectacular fight last winter for ball for
the Shipbuilding city
If Newport News fans never lose h =ir
franchise until Grim takes 1t away from
them, under present conditions, they will
never be without ball. Indeed. the whole
thing looks like a frame-up to get the
Shipbuilding city fans to come across
with bit of coin to cover up the losses
of the team during the Fast season. No
other sensible view can be taken of it.
for it Is probable that Jack Grim never
thought of it. Certainly. Lynchburg
would be the last place for him to ex-
pect to locate, for he was in charge
Of the Lynchburg team two seasons and
a half, and the fans bought him out to
get change in management
Something of a surprise was thrown
into the Virginia League camps by the
drafts Of the teams in the IA circuits.
for one lone player goes by the first selec-
tons to those teams. and he takes long
Jump to the Pacific coast. The player due
for a nice ride across the continent next
spring is Becker. the old Southern Lacquer
who played in the Portsmouth out
field this year. While the higher minors
found only one man in the Virginia
League who looked good to them. they
managed to see five in the Appalachian
circuit which is one notch lower in CLASH
fication than the Virginia circuit.

the game against Randolph Macon Satur-
day. The team in some places did not ap-
pear tobe strong looking a combina-
ton as that Of last season. but on the
whole it is composed of nearly as power
full men. The backs will certainly have
| improved since 1911 and the other men
will more than likely do superior work.
Besides that, there are positions in the
center OF the line which will be held down
by better men this season than played
them last year.
The Blue and Gray team will be much
stronger In a little while than it was
Saturday. AS soon as White and Dunn
get back in the game much power will

tense. and with the right breaks in the
luck should prove Of much value.
Gallaudet opens it's season this year
later than in long while. The first
game scheduled for the Kendall Green
eleven will take place october IL in Lex
ington against the Virginia Military In
stitute.
Catholic University will also not play
until October IL.
Under the four-down rule Costello and
Fury OF Georgetown are apt to prove ex-
ceptionally capable men. 1t will have to
be pretty strong defense that will keep
one or that pair from getting away for

With heavy. punging fullback the
Georgetown eleven will be equipped with
about the best ground gaining material
in the south. There will not be another
eleven which will have as effective a set
of backs as will the Blue and Gray.
Just what Foley will be at quarterback
Is hard to say. Almost anything he
might have tried would gain against an
eleven like RandOiph-Macon. and 1t will

against another aggregation just as
strong as are the men whom he directs.

CHAPMAN ELECTED.
Will Captain Georgetown Track
Team This Year.

The election of Eddie Chapman as cap
tain of the track team at Georgetown
yesterday was received with much en-
!! thusiasm by the student body on the
hilltop. Chapman was considered for this
position all during the past year, but not
until the election of yesterday was it as
sured that he would be honored by the
captaincy of the team for the coming
year.
Chapman entered Georgetown from
Fordham University last fall and came
out for the track team, making good In
the quarter mile and half mile. running

previously arrested on similar charge.
They were reprimanded by the court and
let of with fine of 800. Kessler is said
to have cleared $4,000 on his games since
the base ball season opened.
Since early In the summer both the
police and the detectives from the dis
trict attorneys Office of Allegheny county
have been rounding up the pool sellers.
There are large number awaiting trial,
and the outlook for convictions In view
of the sentences imposed today, is not
encouraging to the officials, who are
working in the interest of the governor
and the local magnate.
