EMPORIA WEAKENED.
Hinshaw and Kitchen Are Out O
Game on Account of Injuries.

Emporia, KAN, Sept. 29.-The Col
lege of Emporia has received an offer
to play a Thanksgiving football game
with Colorado college, of Colorado
Springs. The offer includes a guar
antee of $500 to the Emporia team,
and is particularly attractive to the
athletes because of the trip. The
matter has been submitted to the
athletic board.
Coach Granger, of the Emporia
team, has made a new business propo-
sition to the athletic board of the
State Normal, regarding the arrange
ments for the annual battle between
the two home schools. Heretofore,
season tickets have admitted, and
after the expenses were shared by
both schools, the Normal has i<sisted
on grab bling off SIS per cent of the
proceeds. The college wants the pro-
ceeds divided 60 and 40. with the team
entertaining to take the larger share
and pay all expenses.
The college team opens it's season
against Ottawa next Friday. The
squad is fast, but considerably light
er than last years near champions.
Injuries have cut into this weeks
conditioning, as Hinshaw, back and
the best punter on the team, has an
injured knee, and Kitchen, a veteran
end, had the muscles torn loose in
his right arm.

BOehler Was Tight i'm Pinches
Play i'm Mud.

St. Joseph, Mo-, Sept. 29.-Playing
their last game of the season in St.
Joseph, the Kaws went down to defeat
before the ST. Joseph Drummers by a
score of 4 to 1, making three victories
out of the set for the locals. With
'rRube" Boehler in top form, Topeka
never was in the hunt, although the
visitors had several excellent chances
to tie the score. The only run the Wis
itors made and which kept them from
a shutout came as result of punched
hits in the fourth inning, when it
looked like Boeh1er was going to blow,
but he soon settled down and pitched
a brand of ball that made the fans
hold their breath.
Boehler kept the invaders at a safe
distance throughout. Five hits was the
limit of his generosity. Three of these
We're made in the fourth inning when
the Kaws got their sole tally. and the
other two were widely scattered. No
one was out in the fourth after the trio
of safeties, but McAllister forced one
and Smith and Mccullough fell easy
victims to Rube's speed. He gave two
bases on balls. In four of the nine
innings only three men faced him.
Reynolds was wild as a March hare
and the Drummers had a snap pulling
down the victory. He was weak in the
tight places and walked three men,
which counted against him twice The
fielding behind him was commendable,
not an error being recorded against
Gears team.
McLarry and Koerner were shining
lights for the visitors. Each was
slugger with the willow, dividing four
of Topeka's five blows. AT the same
time. their work in the field was some
thing to feel proud of.
Polly was the one who started To-

Gear singled, scoring McLarry. Meal
lister dampened the chances of tying
the count by forcing Gear at second,
and Smith and Mccullough went out,
Boehler to Gygli.
WesterZi1s triple was big factor in
the scoring of the two runs made by
the Hollanders in the first. The hit
counted Dawson, who got on through a
single. and Tex tailed a moment on

COCREHAM SHOWS Up
Philadelphia Record Comments on His
Initial Appearance.

I Fans of Tepoke have been asking for
| information concerning the perform
ance of Pitcher Gene Cocreham in
| making his debut with the Boston club
| in the National league. Cocreham
| worked against Philadelphia, one of the
hardest clubs on the circuit. last Thurs
| day. The following is taken from the
| Philadelphia Record:
Ninth inning rallying of the most APP
proved and polished sort snatched vic
tory from the customary jaws of defeat
in the second game. The Phillies' cause
looked hopeless when they started their
uprising in the ninth, not SO much be-
cause young Giles Cocreham, who was
in the box when the Braves weren't
batting, looked particularly formula
BILE, but because misfortune and Boston
bats had chased the smile off the face
of Grover Cleveland Alexander, and
later on had chased Grover c. himself
off the mound
Before he went the Braves had made
six runs, and the Phillies a mere quar-
tet. So stood matters when young
Duncan, the Dallas Dart came to bat
in place of Ad Brennan in the ninth.
The Dallasite dropped a Texas Lacquer
in center, but the fact was not consid-
cred especially important as Otto
Knabe flied to Griffith out near the lit
erature.
Then a smash from the bat of Beals
Becker bounded freakishly and smote
Bill Sweeney in the middle of the
fourth rib, or it might have been four
and a quarter. Duncan reached second
and Beals first. Hans Lobert shot one
down the third base line, Duncan
scored, Becker assumed possession of
third base and Lobert of second. The
twilight began to get interesting
The very latest thing in strategy was
thereupon perpetrated. Magee was
purposely passed to get Cravath to the
bat. Gravy showed what he thought
of the move by smashing a terrific
grounder at Cocreham. Cochre-you
say it-knocked down the ball, which
lay dormant on the ground. while
Becker was scoring the tying run, and
everybody else was moving up one
notch. Sweeney shooed Cochre-etc.-
to the ditch in favor of Leftie Tyler. a
veteran.
illustrating the fact that all the intel
lect in America is not confined to Bos-
ton, Boss Doom became strategic and
removed Luderus, a left-handed batter
in favor of Byrne. who waves his bat
at the ball from the opposite side of
the plate Byrne didn't do any of the
things that usually entitle a man 70

him, Gowdy fumbled the ball 1t rolled
ABOUT II feet from the plate in a north
westerly direction Gowdy dashed for
it. and Cocreham and Lobert dashed
for the plate. Byrne merely stood stir
put it happened that a straight line

while straight line might have passed
