LAST GAME IN OLD PARK
PROVES tn re finest BATTLE
EVER STAGED IN SEATTLE

Seattles ball park on Yesler Way "Dug,s band

for. Yesterdays game betwixt the Bengals and the
Tilikums within it's bounds marked the end for the
microscopic lot.
It is probably not without tears that Dug closes
up that park. Many a time has little pop fly won
a game for him-yes, even yesterday--but of that

with it, and we sincerely hope nobody is sorry.
In company with number of other Tacomans,

and did it, although with its last dying breath it
yielded the game to Seattle.

; Coaches. Make Many Shifts

Strongest Combination.
TRYING THREE GENERALS
Foley, Murray, and Costello Be-
ing Used at Quarterback in
Practice Scrimmages.
TRYING THREE GENERALS

There will be a whole lot of expert
menting with the Georgetown varsity
candidates until the correct combina-
ton is gotten. according to the Hilltop
coaches, who believe that they have
enough men to try out everything in
preparation for the Virginia game Sat
urday week.
Foley, Murray, and Costello will again
be given a crack at the quarterback
job, and the shifts in the line are ex-
pected to become features now that
Bryant. the All-South Atlantic guard
of two years ago is out for the eleven.
Heisken and Joe Lawler. with Dough-
erty, are showing up well enough to
warrant a trial on the varsity, and the
coaches feel that they have the men
scrapping hard for the positions. The
game Saturday with the west Virginia
wesleyan University is expected to
thoroughly try out the varsity candi-
dates for the varsity.
Tug Fury and Jim Dunn are round
ing into shape for the big game, and
will be used in the contest Saturday.
Neither Of the men has played in a
contest before this season, and their
appearance will be a signal for a gen.
eral rejoicing on Saturday.
Just before the virginia contest Sc
cret practice viii be inaugurated, at
which time several plays left by Exen-
dine the Carlisle assistant coach, will
be tried out.

Requests for Tickets
Pouring in for Game

NEW YORK, Nov. 6.-Requests for
tickets to the Army-Navy game con-
tinue to pour in at the New York Club
office. and there will be little chance of
eleventh-hour applications being con-
supply of tickets for the general pub
lie will not fill the big demand.
Secretary John B. Foster went to An
napolis Monday and delivered to the
football management there the full
Navy quota of 1850 tickets. The orig
inal request from Annapolis called for
I2,500 seats and a -p4esision was later
sired. The Annapolis Management
asked for the additional allotment.
These seats are on the north side of
the field. comprising a section of the
stands behind third base and a big part
of the left fled bleachers.
The West Point allotment, numbering
ESQ tickets, was sent to the Army
management yesterday. West Point
had the same privilege as Annapolis
in regard to 1900 extra seats, but did
not ask for them. The cadets will oc-
cupv the south stands, taking in part
of the grandstand as well as the bleach
ers. the same as the Navy on the other
side.
Holders of tickets secured through
the New York Club will occupy that
section of the grandstand directly be-
hind the plate, and part Of the center
fled bleachers. Polo Grounds box
holders will be able to purchase boxes
for the game and a few will be sold
to persons who are not season box
numbered and each ticket will call for
a certain seat. The New York Club
will not send out the tickets until the
Monday before the game.

SUBSTITUTES HAVE
CHANCE TO LEARN
Navy Is Planning for Next Sea-
son, When Veterans Leave
the Academy.

ANNAPOLIS. Md, Nov. 6.-One very
important effect of the policy at the
Naval Academy of developing as many
substitutes as possible for each position
and giving them experience in actual
matches is to bring out to take the
places Of those who graduate each year.
This is a particularly necessary policy
this season, as the team loses SO many
of its strongest players when the pres
ent class graduates. In fact, many Of
the naval people were inclined to be
very pessimistic about the prospects for
next year, but the situation has i'm
proved greatly, as number of new
men and players who have been on the
squad but never made the first team
have developed greatly this year
through the opportunities that have
been given them.
Six of the regular players from the
line will graduate this year, leaving
Cniy Perry at center as a nucleus. Back
of the line two of the regulars will go,
leaving only Fullback Harrison and
ouarrerback Mitchell with such a
wholesale loss, the friends and ad-
yisers of the Academy team might Well
be dismayed, and there was a good deal
of that feeling at the beginning of the
season.
However. the new fourth class was
unusually rich in material, while sew
eral who have been on the regular
squad for some time have developed
notably this season.
The proposition of filling the two
halfbacks' positions is not a serious
one with such players as Failing. Alex
ander, Blodgett, Miles, Bates, Vain,
Austin, Jones, Jackson, and Dashiels
avail able, but there is no question that
it will take hard work to secure line
of anywhere near the capacity of the
one made up of such powerful and
clever players as Brown and Howe at
the guards; Ralston and Redman. tack
les, and Gilchrist and Ingram, ENDS.
However, the situation is not hopeless.
The new class produced two powerful
fellows, S:zer and Ward, both of whom
show football ability. There is one
first class end in Oyeresch, and Kennedy
and Dercode. tackles, and Emerson,
center, have shown much strength. The
system AZ the Naval Academy has
proved effective in producing players
for the next season as well as develop
ing a strong aggregation for the present.

National Commission
Will Receive Demands

NEW YORK, Nov. 6.-According to
David L. Fultz, president Of the Base
bali Players Fraternity, the demands OF
the organization will be presented to
the National Commission, not to the
big leagues.
1T was never the intent of the fra
ternity TO take UP the question with the
American League or the National
League separately" said Fultz. 1T is
a question between the players and or
ganiZed baseball, and as such only can
be considered by the National Commits
sion and the National Beard of the Ma
tiopaI Association of Professional Base
bah Leagues. The players suggestions
will be given to August Hermann,
chairman of the National Commission,
and John H. Farrell, secretary of the
National Board"
'.Are you or a committee from the
Fraternity going to appear before the
National Comm m-ssion and the National
Board to tender the suggestions" Fultz
was asked
''Why I can see not need of any such
procedure said the players leader.
''The suggestions will be mailed or sent
By messenger. Then il Is up to the Ma
;ional Commission and the National
Board to make the next move.

SOUTH BETHLEHEM. Pa. Nov. G.
-Lehigh's warriors, still considerably
crippled as a result of the Navy's bat
tering, had a scrimmage practice yes
terday in preparation for next Satur-
DAYS game with Swarthmore.
Last year Lehigh was the only team TO
Gefeat the Garnet eleven, victory then
coming otly because of the prowess
of the Brown and White captain, Paz-
zetti, the all-American quarterback,
who kicked a field goal. Swarthmore
is eager to maSe up for this defeat.
While Lehigh will make every effort

SCHOOL TEAMS GET
IN ACTION TOMORROW

Eastern and Western are picked for a

line up in the fifth of the high school
championship series. Both teams are
reported in prime condition, and the
dopesters have 1t that the teams are
evenly matched in weight and speed.
with the series practically half over,
there Is no way OF picking the winner,
and the contest tomorrow is expected
to show whether Tech or Eastern or
western has the call for the title.
Eastern displayed varied attack
against Business, and won aand!ly
against the heavier Business eleven.
Western showed better football than
Central in the engagement that went
Westerns way. At the same time the
Red and White was slow in comparison
to Eastern.
Western must make Greer the object
