Stevens Coaches Look to
Freshman Class for Players

HOBOKEN, Sept. 16.-Twenty can
didates for the Stevens football team
reported to Coaches Ayres and Beav-
ers at Castle Point Field yesterday
afternoon. Hard work will have ia
be started soon as the opening game
with the army comes on October 3.
Both Ayres and Beavers were one
time West Point football stars and
they are anxious to make a good
showing against the army.
Among the players lost by gradua-
ton are Siler and Seagraves, backs,
and the coaches will have a hard
time developing men to fill their
places. There is hope that the fresh
man class which is one of the big
gest in the history of the institute,
will furnish a number of flrst-class
men. The schedule is one of the most
difficult arranged for Stevens team.

East Orange Minus oonch.

East Orange High School may lose
the services of Charles Grosenbaugh,
its football coach. this year. Grosen-
baugh is at odds. at the present time,
with the faculty advisers of tho
school athletic association over the
question of salary, and unless the
matter is settled very soon a new
drill master may be seen at AshlapH
Field. The absence of Grosenbaugh
is causing much worry among the
football candidates, who are of the
opinion that he is one of the best
coaches in schoolboy ranks.

Frank Chance is out as manager of
the New York Americans and Roger
Peckinpaugh is acting as the leader
of the Yanks. Chance came to an
amicable settlement yesterday with
Frank Farrell and the manager will
leave for his home by automobile in
"a day or so. In an interview Chance
says he is through with baseball
which is evidence that he knows he is
passe. He was a great leader when
in charge of the Chicago Cubs but
he was a dismal failure as leader Of
the Yanks. He had two years to make
good, but he couldn't do it, and when
the time came for him to give up his
job he blamed a scout for his inability
to produce a winner. By that method
of calculation, then, it is the scout,
not the manager. who is the important
fellow in baseball these days. But 1t
is no fault of any scout that Chance
failed. He failed because he was not
up-to- date and his methods were not
abreast of the times.
@
A successor to Chance will not be
appointed this season, and it is not
known who the man for the job will
be. Jack Dunn is being touted as the
best available man for the position
and he is deserving of all the nice
things that are being said about him.
He, has been a wonder in the minors
and he has been a success both as a
leader and as a developer of players
Frank Farrell could not give bet
ter man the job, but he hasn't decided
OH Dunn as yet by any means.

eral League and the International
League comes about Dunn, who
owns the. Orioles, will be out of a

eddy want to take care of him, for

The reason? Because when we were

Georgia, who had become man Of
political influence.
The gentleman took offense at
some remarks of the Georgian and
sent him a challenge. The powerful
blacksmith was nonplussed.

will not fight
You must urged his friend. No
gentleman can refuse
Il am not gentleman replied the
honest citizen Of Georgia. I'm only

But you will be ruined If you do
not fight continued his friends. You
will have the choice of weapons, and
you can choose so as to give youTSelL
an equal chance with your adver-

to consider the matter, and ended by
accepting. He sent the following re-
ply to the Louisiana gentleman:
