Games To-morrow.


 White sox vs. Park Citys at Hairs Field. (Other scheduled games be- ing played to-day at Newfeld Park.
 Owing to the difficulty in securing playing fields on Sundays the direc-e tors decided to schedule two games to be played at Newfield Park to-day. The St. Mary-Brooklawn game will
 be the most interesting game of the
 two as the result of the game will de- eide as to whether or not the Hope fuls" have a look-in for the cham
 pionship. This will be the final week
 of the league season. and if the St.
 Mary's win to-day they will be tied with the Park Citys for the bunting and this will mean a series between
 both teams for the championship. The game scheduled between the
 Park Citys and the White Sox for to- morrow will never be played as man ager t'BilP Mcclure of the latter team
 absolutely refuses to go to Hairs Field.
 ble ever since he entered this league, first, he said he would not enter his club in the race because of the fact that the other teams in the league were not fast enough for his club; second he refused to play "a sched- uled game with the St. Marys last Sunday, his excuse being that his club had accepted a challenge from the
 Longfellaw A. C., and in direct viola ton of the leagues constitution he went to the west end and played the challengers. The result of the game do not know as McGuires press agent was confined to his home with
 an attack of Yellow fever" The affair will be thrashed out at the next
 meeting of the league directors and
 the game will most likely be thrown out of the league standing and the of lending magnate may also receive the same treatment. The Park Citys Marys therefore it would be only just let the championship depend upon the outcome of, to-days game at Newie1d
 park. If the tHopefuls'' are defeat | ed to-day by the Brooklawns the Park Citys are the league champions and if the St. Marys win, let the eHopefuIs''l and the "Rovers,' fight it 1 out in series of three games to de- l eide. the championship. Secretary l Charles T. Mahoney has practically arranged a series between the cham pions of this league and the Elec- tric Cable company champions of the l Factory league and if we win out l in this series he has arranged a ser l ieS with the Ade1phians who have copped the bunting in the Fraternal league and the winner of this series is to play the Warner Bros company who have landed 4he flag in the fast I Industrial league. The winner of this
 series may well be classed as the best 1 team in Bridgeport in amateur circles.

project to have the 1916 Olympic games, scheduled to be held in Ber- set on foot yesterday afternoon. It is proposed to advance to the German athletic authorities an offer to take the games off their hands and give over to Berlin the date America would get later on-probably 1920.
 Among those interested in the prop oit1on is Frederick w. Janssen, treas urer of a Sporting goods concern, who asserted yesterday that his company was ready to undertake the under suitable track for the games. It is proposed that the Amateur Athletic Union raise $1oo,ooo by stock or note issue
 It is suggested that either the Meadow Brook international polo field or the Sheepshead Bay race track would be suitable for building a cin- der path, and would accommodate about 10000 people.

GIANTS FEEL
 THEIR SLUMP
 IS OVER NOW

Chicago, Aug 29.-For the third time in the last five days the Giants yesterday were compelled to sit in their hotel watching rain drops when they would have preferred to be out on the ball field protecting their slen- der lead from the rayages Of the Braves, Cubs and Cardinals.
 Not only did the rain prevent the Giants and Cubs from getting into ac- ton. but it prevented the Braye-Card- inal scrap in St. Louis. together with the other National league games. AS a result, there was no change in the National league percentage table.
 Two Games Today
 As two games will be played today McGraw will be able ito come back with Tesreau for the fourth and last game of the series on Sunday.
 Hank O,Day will pin his hopes on Big Jim Vaughn and Larry Cheney Cheney s1um ped for a month, when he was valuelesss to the Cub cause but he is back in his stride again. and held the Braves to one hit in his last start When Cheney Is good he Is an awful hard nut for the Giants to crack
 Though the Giants have only won two straight games, th6De is a. afeehng Of optimism in the Giant camp which could not be more sincere if the Giants had won a dozen in a row On every side there are smiles, and the slogan Of the camp is: t'The slump is over

 OF RING BATTLES

1ss5-John l.. Sullivan defeated Dominick McCaffrey in rounds at Cincinnati. McCaffrey had come in to prominence a few months before by his victory over. Charlie Mitch ell, but John L., quickly reduced his swollen knob. The Mitchell-McCaffrey bout was fought in Madison Square Garden in October, 1884. George Brotherton and W. F. Corney, McCaf- frey's packers, paid the Englishman $1,200 to meet their man. Only four rounds were fought. and Mitchell had the best of it all the way, but the ref cree gave the decision to McCaffrey. It was a tribute to the fairness of New York sports that a storm of misses and ca.t-calls greeted this unfair award. Doninick basked in the sunlight of fame until he actually believed that he could whip Sullivan, but the mo- ton was quickly dissipated by the B6ston boy.

 No matter how long the game has been played there is always Something new -bobbfng up in the way of plays The Giants had one in Cincinnati It was triple play made by the Reds. it was also very much tainted, and called "force triple" play by Man ager McGraw. Jack Murray was on third base with Bescher on nrst and not a man out. Grant then sent a short fly to centre. Moran got the ball, threw home. and nailed 0Eur- ray, who tried to score after the catch In the meantime Bescher was on his way to second and had turned that station. Gonzales then threw the ball to Kellogg, the Reds nFst saolzer, thus the triple play was made While there are many who think that Moran made the right play, the general opin- lion was that Moran should have | thrown the ball to first base, which would have made it two out, as tho Reds were away ahead and Moran n1gh& have lost Murray at the hSms station.

There are three reasons why Yale desires a championship football eleven this season. Not only the wish to get revenge on Harvard but also the fact that two new fields will be opened. The Palmer stadium at Princeton will be dedicated by the Yale eleven and the Yale Bowl will be thrown open for the Harvard battle.
 It is superstition among players and coaches that if 8 team wins the first game on a new field it will have a. long career of victory on that grid iron. So Coach Frank Hinkey will get after the Yale candidates with great energy.
 John McGraw is always on deck with the airy persiflage. The Giant writer compares himself to the Kaiser and says everybody's against him. Every club in the league is sending it's men to night school in an effort to figure out ways and means to pull our men off the top perch,' says the Giant leader. Well. what do you ex- pect, Ja.wn7 Do you think the other clubs are going to curl up and let your bunch walk off with that world s series money
 There is no doubt the Giants are worried. They didn't get a chance to pick on the Cubs yesterday because 1t rained but today's double header ought to settle somebody's hash. Bos- ton and St Louis didn't nning1e, either This leaves the Giants in first place with a 13 point lead. By tonight things may be different.
