An. unusual coincidence occurred in
the National League yesterday. New
York and Brooklyn lost their games
10 In ten innings and captured thsir
second contests of double headers by
2-1 and 20 scores. In addition, the
star pitchers of both teams-Mathew-
son and Reulbach, were beaten in the
opening matches, while two south
paws, Marquard and Rucker, won the
second battles.
As though that were not enough,
Rucker and Marquard each had one
hit in three attempts.
Sherwood Magee, of the Quakers,
stole home while Hendrix was wind
ing UP at Pittsburgh yesterday. The
run gave the Phillies a lead in the
tenth round, but Pittsburgh came
back with two tallies and won the
game.
Luderus and Hendrix INDUCED in a
fist fight and were chased of the
field at Pittsburgh.
Hans Wagner managed to get in a
hit in each OF the games with the
Phillies. He batted ESQ for the day.
Merkle has been dropped down in
the Giants batting order. He had
two hits In one of the games.
Jimmy Johnston, who will Join the
Cubs soon, has reached the century
mark in the stolen bases. The Frisco
fielder is said to be the fastest man
on the bases in any league.

1--WE HAVE The PENNANT,"
SAYS JAWN, THEN HE LOSES
Cancels Prediction Turned Topsy-turvy by Toronto
. When John Starts Boosting Tigers Can't Lose
Flag if Rain Prevents Remaining Games.
ONE MORE NEWARK VICTORY WILL CINCH II

If the Tigers lose all three games
and the Hustlers win two games the
championship would go to Rochester
by a viewpoint margin.
Rochester was able to get only one
game of a double-header with To-
ronto yesterday, while the Tigers were
idle. Newark gained another infin-
itesimal fraction of a point by the
process, even though the balance
stayed at one and half games-the
margin between the two teams.
For a short time yesterday between
the first and second games at Roch-
ester John Cancels men were just
one full game behind the Tigers. 1t
was the closest Rochester has been
to Newark in the league standing
this season. Cancels head promptly
started to swim around, and with his
usual braggadocio he shouted to the
fans in the stand: I'VE will win the
pennant. We will take every one of
our remaining games. while Newark
will lose to Jersey City"
Fate promptly turned around and
handed John an awful Jolt right In
the solar plexus. His team was shut
out, to 0, IN the second game, and
the Flower City athletes were lucky
to escape a worse beating.
In the event that rain prevents
game here today and Rochester wins
twice, a double-header will be sched-
uled here tomorrow. In that event the
Tigers will have to win one game to
clinch the victory. If the Tigers,
under those circumstances, were to
drop two games tomorrow the Hust-
lers would be champions by mar
gin of one point. That Is why the
Tigers are eager to play today and
get that one victory and have it over.

lowing day Central High Schools

Even If the Tigers are prevented
from playing another game this sea-
son and Rochester wins two games
today the International League PEN
nant for the season of 1918 will fly
in Newark.
Now all that some enterprising
young Newarker has to do to add
to the fame of the Tigers and his own
name will be to write a ragtime mel
ody, something like THAT Newark
Rag" It's Newark's rag, not just yet
technically, but there is every indi-
cation that the race will be decided
today.
To insure the title of champions
the Tigers need only win one more
game, regardless of what the Roch-
ester HVstlers do in their final
double-header Of the season with
Toronto today. In the event that
Rochester is defeated in one Of those
games the Tigers can afford to drop
all three Of their remaining contests
with Jersey City and still come out
on top.
Wet grounds prevented yesterdays
game between Newark and Jersey
City, and the outlook early today
was again dismal, but an effort will
he made to play today unless 1t pours
"pitchforks," according to the New
ark management. In the event that
the Tigers are prevented from play
ing today or tomorrow Rochester
could not overtake the Bengals, even
IL the Hustlers won two straight
games. Newark would still have a
half game lead and then the final
standing would be-:
Newark .617, Rochester $40.

INCREASE PRIZES
IN STAR TOURNEY
Annual Bowling Competition
Has Many New and At
fractive Features.
SOUVENIRS OPENING NIGHT

Bowlers will soon have chance to
again shoot in the Star headpin tour
nament. The sixth annual renewal
of the classic competition will be in
augurated on the Iroquois alleys
Monday night. October IS.
In addition to the usual liberal
team and individual prizes the Star
has arranged this season to award
additional trophies opening night.
There will be first. second and third
high-score prize given to the men,
bers of the opening night squad, and,
in addition. souvenirs are to be hand
ed out to all who bowl that night.
The first team prize this season
will consist of 500. There will also
be a prize of $25 to the second team
and $15 to the team making the third
high score.
All bowlers who succeed in making
a score of ITO or better will receive
gold watchfobs. while those who
have marks between 100 and ITO will
be rewarded by silver watchfobs. The
bowler who makes the highest score
during the season will receive a gold
watchfob in which will be inserted
diamond.
Entries for this tournament will be
received by the sporting editor OF
the Star and by F. w. Huttenbach.
at the Iroduois Academy in WASH
ington street. Any five-man team
may enter. and there is no entrance
fee and no charge for bowling. The
only restriction is that no five-man
team and no individual is eligible TO
bowl more than once.
The tournament is to close April
10. 1914. 1t has been found that to
continue it longer encroaches ser1-
ously on the season for outdoor
sports. The big tournament Is so
popular that it would be found pos
sible. so it seems. to continue it dur
ing the entire twelve-month. Last
season 1900 bowlers took part. This
season entries will be received until
all available dates are filled, and
then the books will have to be
closed.
Bowling is to be done each night in
the week except Saturday and SUM-
day nights. If bowling teams ask for
the special privilege, they will be as
signed any afternoon. This ruling is
made so as to allow bowlers who
may be employed at night chance
to bowl.
Special nights are to be featured as
usual this season. IhlS Will give
organizations chance to have the
alleys all to themselves. This style
has been decidedly popular in past
seasons and there will doubtless
be rush to fill dates.
In sending in entries captains of
teams should give their addresses,
so that they may be notified when
they are booked. Dates to be avoided
should also be mentioned. AS long
as dates are open organizations VIII
be booked for whatever time that
they ask. Those who enter early Will
have the first chance.

In Our League

The class AA clubs will have a
chance to put in drafts for minor
league players early next week. The
Newark Club could use a few young
sters. and it is possible that two or
three men will be drafted. The Jer-
sey City Club will also put in drafts
for some players.
Joe Agler writes that he has lame
leg, and will not get here to help the
shelters, which is welcome news. De-
troit drafted Agler, but Jersey City
had him covered up.
The Toronto team has been train
ing at Macon, but George Stallings
wants Macon for the Boston Ma
tionals next season, as 1t Is near his
home in Milledgeville, Ga.
While the Tigers and Hustlers are
struggling for first place, Baltimore
and Buffalo will probably end their
tussle for the third rung by nightfall.
Baltimore has the advantage of a
half game over the Bisons, and, in
addition, the Birds play tomorrow,
while the Herd winds up today.
Catcher Harry Bemis, of the To-
ronto Club, has been sold to the
Memphis Club of the Southern
League. Joe Kelley's champions are
pretty well broken up.
Jimmy Hanford. who was loaned to
the Buffalo team when Heininger
went to Montreal, will become the
property of the Bisons, in exchange
for Outfielder George Jackson, who Is
to join the Royals.
Montreal will have new first
sacker next season. and he is to come
from the Philadelphia Nationals in
exchange for Catcher Burns, along
with other players and cash.
Dave Roth, of the Orioles, is to join
the Chicago White SoX through draft.
This is the second Oriole to be draft
ed by Chicago Americans. Maurice
Rath, an infielder, was taken two
years ago.
The Toronto team will probably
train with the New York Giants at
Marlin Springs, Tex, next season. Joe
Kelley and John McGraw are close
friends, and John invited Joe to share
his camp.

The second of a series of games be-
tween the Ironsides and the Forest
Hill A. c. will be staged at Columbia
Oval, Forest Hill, tomorrow after
noon at $3.50 o'clock. The Killers took
the first contest by the close score of
5 to 4, and Manager Bill Francis
hopes to win another. The Killers
since the latter game have been
strengthened considerably by the ad-
dition Of new men. On the other hand
the Ironsides have been playing in
consistent fashion and victory for
the West Siders will even up the
series. George Hughes, who pitched
for the Ironsiders in the first game
will probably toe the rubber again,
while Whelan will work for the For
est Hill nine.

ing. 1t will be the initial meeting

erty will umpire.
Manager George Bloom, of the La
fayette A. c., says that his team will
play the Bloomfield F. c. in the third
of a three-g game series in Bloomfield
tomorrow afternoon. Each team has
won a game, so the rubber ought to
be a corker. Dillon, Kinsey and
Adams will work for the Boomers.
while the visiting team will use Ret
tigand Schuster.
The Lafayette A. c. will go to
Bloomfield tomorrow afternoon to
play the Bloomfield F. C. In the third
and deciding game of a series. Retrig
and Schuster will form the battery
for the Lafayettes. The remainder of

Who will be the pitcher to clinch
the championship for the Tigers? VIII
1t be Curtis, Enzmann or Lee? All
three are ready to work If a game
is possible with the Jersey City Skeet-
ers today. Probably all three' will
warm up for the Bengals before the
game.
Had game been played yesterday
Curtis would probably have worked
and he is the logical choice for the
first battle of ,today's double header.
Enzmann, who won his game Tues
day, 10 from Providence. says he
feels At to come back, but it Is prob
able that he will be saved until the
second or perhaps the third game
tomorrow. Lee has had o rest of
two full days since beating Provi-
dence Wednesday. With these three
| pitchers in shape for battle and six
other fingers to call on it does not
seem SO hard for the Tigers to win
at least one of their games with
Jersey City.

GOSSIP OF THE Big LEAGUE PLAYERS

Nap Rucker has shown improved
form since the Dodgers went West.
He did not have many strike-outs
yesterday. but he pitched cleverly.
Heinie Zimmerman went through a
game for Chicago without getting
chased by an umpire. His double
and home run drove in four runs.
Detroit had enough hits to win from
Washington. but Jennings's men
could not bunch them.
The muddy fields were probably
the cause of the close scores in the
National and American League games
yesterday. Every game played was
a pitchers battle.
