NOT TO ANSWER
OWLS CHALLENGE

No attention will be paid by the
Richmond Senators to the challenge of
the Owls for a series of games to be
played between the two teams for the
championship of the city. The Sena-
tors assert that the def of the Owls is
an annual outbreak and means moth
ing.
The management of the Senators as
serts that while that team was defeat
ed by the Centerville team. which fell
a victim to the Owls, it was through
the absence of all the members of the
pitching staff and the team went into
the game without a HEAVIER
The Senators point out that while
the Senators walked all over Lynn in
a very one sided contest, the Owls had
to travel through II innings in order
to turn the trick.

CHIEF OF POLICE
HAD LITTLE SLEEP
GOrmOn Rests Twenty Hours
in Five Days, During
Festival.

Twenty hours of sleep in five days"
This was the record of Chief of Po-
lice Gormon during the days of the
Fall Festival, Tuesday, Wednesday,
Thursday, Friday and Saturday. The
chief, backed by a force of dozen ex-
ira police and as many or more plain
clothes men, worked almost constantly
during the time when Richmopd's lar
gest crowds were in the city and law
less conditions were expected.
However, not one dip" crook, pick
pocket, rowdy, robber, burglar, nor any
other form of lawbreakers operated in
the city. They might have been here
but they did not ply their trades" a
fact that speaks we'll for the reputa-
ton of the city in the future, because
according to Chief Gormon, almost ev-
cry town in the country of any conse-
quence is listed among crooks and
con" men.
''In the future we shall take the
same precautions for the safety of the
citizens and their property when large
crowds are in the city" said the chief.
But | do not believe that we will ex-
perience any trouble unless it is from
young and inexperienced men who are
not on to the ropes and are not in
with others. l believe that Richmond
is now marked in flaring letters in the
minds of confidence men, pickpockets
and crooks of all descriptions, Keep
out"
In connection with his duties at
headquarters Chief Gormon was on
the streets in watch for any dishonest
men of whom he might have had a
record or previous acquaintanceship

PLAY SENATORS SOON

The last game of baseball will be
seen this season at Athletic park on
Sunday, October II. Negotiations are
under way between the Richmond
Senators and the fast Spartansburg
team for a game on that date. These
teams have met twice this summer
and each won one game. Richmond
wond the first contest 7 to 5, and the
Randolph county bunch took the sec
on to /. Although the arrangements
for the game have not been COM
pleted, both arrangements favor the
idea of playing off the time, and there
is little doubt that the game will be
scheduled for October II at Athletic
park.
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1913-10-07

An important change in the sched-
ule arrangements has been made. In
case of a legal tie, the teams will not
play the game over again the next
day in the same city. as was done last
year in Boston. Instead, the teams
will move to the next town and play
out the rest of the schedule. If the
question of supremacy depends on the
tie game; it will be replayed in the
city where it was played the first
time. In case of a game stopped by
rain before the legal number of in
nings has been completed, the game
will be played in the same city on the
following day.
