Leaves New York on Long Auto
Trip to Home in Glen
dora, California.

New York, Sept. EI.-Frank Chance
is through with New York. Accom-
panied by his wife and some friends
he started on his long automobile trip
to Glendora, Cal, his home, today. he
expects the journey TO consume about
five weeks time, and on the way he
viii stop at Chicago for a few days
to visit with friends and take on a
new set OF supplies for the journey
west. He will go away from here de-
termined to give up baseball for the
rest of his days.
II the spring weather and the warm
sunshine gives him the fever mex.
year, he declares there is a remote
chance of his returning to the national
pastime, but it will be with one of the
Chicago teams, If either one desires
him. But if he finds the ranch life
at Glendora too fascinating he will
forget all about what the major
leagues are doing and devote his time
to improving the orange trees that
are to furnish him his livelihood. If
he is wanted by either Chicago club,
he said he would prefer to go back TO
the Cubs and that he would give them
the preference.

Philadelphia. Pa, Sept. 21.-At the
close of the worlds series last fall when
the Athletics beat the Giants in four
games out OF five played. Connie Mack
said OF the young man who caught
the series for him:
81 think SchanE is the greatest
young catcher that ever broke into
the major leagues"
Connie was not gushing when he
said that. Schang caught every one
Of the four wins that made the Ath-
letics the worlds champs again and
he batted. 357. OF his teammates
only Eddy Collins and Home-run
Baker were able to do better. He
got a homer and q triple among other
hits, and his timely bingles were the
big items in at least two of the games.
His performance on the whole was
scintillating. And IL was his first year
in fast company.
In 1911 Schang was working for the
Pullman company at Buffalo, lacking
upholstery on the seats in the sleep
ers and chair cars. He also played
on the Pullman ball team, and in fact
this was the biggest part of his job.
He had TO learn how 10 put the velvet
on the chairs, but he already knew a
bit about ball playing when he went to
the Pullman shops.

Old Centrals, Former County

The 1910 county champions are nc

and thirty minutes the gladiaJors bat
tied at Reservoir park, the game bS
ing called in the eighth inning on &C
count of darkness, with the count IL
TO 10 in favor OF the 1000 boys. The

and chills, and at times resembied a
farce-comedy.
Eagle Beak' Collins, who covered
the initial bag for the losers, was
popped on the beak with high ny

BIG Nine TEAMS
START PRACTICE
Indiana Starts Season This
Week With Depauw School
at Bloomington.
ALL TEAMS PLAY OCT. 8
Real Season Will start One Week
From saturday--Many Old Vets
at IIIinols-Maroons Strong.

Chicago. Ill, Sept. 21.-Football has
come back into It's own. Preparation
for the annual gridiron campaign of
ficially opens in all universities making
up the western conference, and from
now until Thanksgiving day. moleskin
clad warriors will hold the center OF
the stage.
Northwestern was the only big g.
school to beat the barrier in starting
practice. The Purple athletes lined VI
under the direction OF Coach Murphy
for the first time, Saturday afternoon
and got in some good work, while the
other conference squads were resting
on their arms" Practice was supposed
to officially commence Sept. 20. but as
the date fell upon a Sunday, North
western figured that Saturday was the
logical day to begin work.
Hcorlers Play ThIs Week.
Indiana Is the first conference
school 10 get started on its fall SEIZED
ule. The Hoosiers have a game carded
with Depauw at Bloomington Saturday
of this week. Consequently some stiff
preliminary practice is in store for the
squad. Nearly 100 candidates for the
team, including nine veterans of last
year, are expected to report to Coach
c. c. Chllds.
All of the big nine elevens have
games scheduled for q week from Sat
urday, although most OF them are OF a
preliminary nature and are regarded
by the conference teams as already
slowed away. The only interconfer-
ence game for that date is that between
Indiana and Chicago, which will give
the Maroon supporters their first op-
portunity to see their favorites in &C
ton on Stage field.
A team far above the average in
beef is expected at the Midway this
fall. All of the veterans left over from
last years championship team have
taken on weight, while the large bunch
of recruits is unusually husky. Captain
Des Jardien, with his 200 pounds. in
the center of the line will be thanked
by guards and tackles of almost the
same poundage. The replacing OF
Norgren in the back field is Stagg's
biggest problem.
Many Illinois Veterans.
Coach Bob Zuppke will be uncertain
as to the makeup of his Illinois varsity
squad for several days, as several hold
overs from last season must remove
conditions in their studies before be-
coming eligible. Fourteen letter men
give the Him mentor q good start to-
ward q well-seasoned eleven for the
