WASHINGTON, Aug. 30.-The heads

The secretary of the navy and the
acting secretary of war yesterday had
a conference, which resulted in de-
cision to summon to Washington the
officers In charge of the football
schedules at West Point and at An
napols. The navy man will confer
with Secretary Daniels and the army
officers with Acting Secretary of War

Secretary of War Garrison, now on
an inspection tour in the West. has
shown interest in the matter and has
telegraphed Mr.. Daniels approving
the idea of having a Joint conference
Mr.. Breckenridge Is keenly DESTROYS
of having the game played, and he
thinks that the logical place for the
great contest is Washington. The
West Pointers want the game played
in New York, while the navy insists
that 1t should be played at Franklin
Field, philadelphia. as in the past.
Mr.. Breckenridge believes that ar

1t will be possible to make some sat-

make II possible to play the game.
ANNAPOLIS, Aug. 30.-A statement
regarding the Cancellation of the an

have been played between the army

issued yesterday afternoon by the ex-
ecutive committee Of the Navy Ath-
letic Association.
The navy's attitude throughout"
according to the statement, has been
q willingness to play the game at any
point approximately midway between
Annapolis and West Point, where a
reasonable number of seats could be
provided. Franklin Field came near
est to fulfilling these needs, and had
the additional advantage of placing
the game under college, instead of
commercial auspices. a desirable
point for academies representing the

CLIFF CURTIS IS The HERO OF
TIGER CAMP AFTER VICTORY
Bengals Look on New Pitcher as "White Hope"
Following Good Showing on His First
Appearance on Mound for Newark.
GET AN EVEN BREAK WITH THE BISoNs

BUFFALO, N. Y, Aug. sO.-Cnn
Curtis is the hero of the Tiger camp
today. There is no use denying that
the regulars, those who have been
with the Tigers all season, are some
what worried over the slump of the
Bengal twirlers and now that Cur
tbs has shown that he can deliver
the goods the boys are breathing
easier. The Bengal players are not
anxious TO have it narrow down 10
the last week of the season before
they can oinch tis9 flag. They want
to get 1t over with, and the sooner
the better.
The Newark lead is now 81 games
Lots of things can happen in three
weeks, and so there is a little more
tension than usual in the Newark
camp today. The Bengals are set on
capturing a double-header today II
It can be accomplished, but this does
not seem possible with the pitchers
Smith has to call on. Barger was n
disappointment in the second game
yesterday. If Holmes warns up all
right this afternoon he will be used
in one of the games, which may put
1t up to Barger to try his hand again
tomorrow at Newark. 1t is more
likely now that Lee will be saved for
Providence and Barger for Balti-
more.
Curtis twirled mastery game in
his first appearance in Newark toys.
His teammates gave him only two
runs, and these were not earned.
Harry Smith went behind the plate in
both games. He guided Curtis so skill
fully in the opening game that Cliff
acted as though be had been in the
league all season and knew the likes
and dislikes of every batsman.
In the second game anger did not
have his usual good control, and
Furthermore, he did not have as much
stuff as usual. He got by for the first
couple rounds by using his head. They
got to him for three runs in the
fourth inning, but the Tigers came
right back and tied it up, and Harry
Smith had hopes that Cy would i'm
prove as he usually does. Ba"ger
however, was worse in the fifth inn
ing and before the round ended Buff
falo had nicked off four more runs.
Shacht came in and was wobbly but
managed to get along without any
more wholesale scoring. Beebe was
hit hard enough to win an ordinary
game. the Tigers taking ten safeties
as their share of the clouting. In
the last two innings Newark made
determined rallies but could get only
one tally in each inning.
Cliff Curtis had Myles Main as an
opponent In the opening game. Main
was in better form than usual, and
after the first inning had the Tigers
at his mercy. Five hits were regis
tered off his serving. Curtis allowed
Newark evening star and Newark advertiser. [volume] (Newark, N.J.) 1909-1916, 1913-08-30

only four bingles and made one hit
himself.
Three Bison errors in the first in
ming and a timely wallop by Swacina
gave the Bengals a victory-or the
runs which brought about the victory.
With one out Gagnier was safe when
Roach slipped UP on his bounder. w.
Zimmerman tapped to Truesdale, who
got in another misplay. Then Main
made a wild throw that enabled both
runners to advance q base and Swa-
Gina singled, sending in his colleagues.
A remarkable feature of Curtis's
work was that only two flies were hit
to the Newark outf1elders. Billy Zim-
norman caught one and muffed the
other. For the most part Curtis had
the enemy popping up or hitting
them TO his infelders. Sixteen assists
were gathered In by the Newarkers.
He gave four passes, but was In dan
ger only once, and then q Bison was
cut down at the plate On Getz's
clever return on double steal.
In the second affair the Herd fell
on Barger for three runs and three
hits. The Tigers tied 1t up in the
fifth inning by clouting Beebe. N.Y.
ers had single, Smith a double and
Barger and Dalton made one-base
hits, accounting for three runs. 1t
was all off in the fifth, however, for
three more Bisons singled and dou-
BILE by Hanford upset the game. New
ark had opportunities in the eighth
and ninth innings, but one run was
the best the Tigers could produce in
each instance. The scores:

GRAYS HERE FOR

Tigers to Jump Home for One
Game, Then Go to
Baltimore.
LEE &c IKEI To DITCH
flee is LIKELY TO PITCH

Following a double header today
with Buffalo the Tigers will jump TO
Newark tomorrow for one game with
the Providence Grays. The recent
slump shown by the Tigers on this
road trip can be traced chiefly to the
pitching department. Since leaving
home a fortnight ago the Tigers have
dropped six games and won four
contests. In order to get an even
break on the two weeks trip the
Tigers need both games today.
The Bengal regulars have been hit
ting hard enough to win most games,
as can be seen from the box score Of
the second contest yesterday, and
two of the games at Rochester which
We're lost. Wyatt Lee, who has been
