sheep raising in Jackson county pays
because local sheep are the most pro-

THINK WAR
 MAY INJURE YALE FOOTBALL

Fear that the European war may give football financial setback through 1essened interest is felt in some quarters at Yale. The theory will net have 8 flair trial in the open ing games at either Yale or Harvard, however, as neither university will be- gin recitations till next week Wednes- day, their opening gridiron engage mente taking place four days before I the opening faculty engagement. The attendance at the opening games to- morrow promises, therefore, to be light and undergraduates will be rare among the spectators. Neither the Yale nor the Harvard faculty has ever before played four days before the opening of college.
 ] Whether the faculty and undergrad uate members of the university can be. tempted out by football during the depressing news announcements from Europe will be a matter for va rtous opinions till the schedule is well advanced. The football officials hold the opinion that a, crowd big enough to fill the new ffboWF' can be collected for the Ya1e-Harvard game and the construction work is being rushed to comp mpletion. although wooden seats 'n- stead of the concrete will be used above the first five rows.
 Two of the most promising nnemen, who have Joined the Yale squad since It began Work, are now available in the persons Of Herman von Holt and Jim Sheldon. Von Holt is a tackle and was well headed toward the goal of 8 permanent position last year whe1, he was compelled to retire because of an injury.
 He played brllant football two years ago as a freshman. Sheldon was tslightly injured last week at Madison and the coaches are delighted at his quick recovery He and Won Holt will be given first string places for the present and will be used in part o1 the opening game. tomorrow against Maine.

HANK CONVOY BEGAN CAREER
 AS BAT BOY

When the history Of Hank Qowdy. the ginger haired child Of fate. is written. it is more than likely that thethe title will be From Bat to Back stop.
 For to be sure Hennery clanbered up to the proud en1inence of every ready backstop of those toplo6ty 17.,-avsesz from various perchea, the bot tom one being the one in the fore front of the title nominated.
 Hennery was bat boy for the Co., 1,,1,or,11s team of the American Asso- citation in the days Of his early youth Being one of those earnest little work serH with only the disa'dyaItase or 100 1rrnch youth to put the hopples on his advance to @. steady berth. Hank caus- ed several caucuses of scouts to as- senfble while he was getting off to a fiyttrx start in his career.
 No less a parsonage than John Mo Graw had the happy child brought to his attention at this interesting point. m ttre far away confines of Dallas, rex. in that wild and cottony Texas league. Hank was going quite well. SO well in fact that he was gathered in by the Giant commander in 1910 and remained in the city of Gotham a very short time.
 HexxoEs departure from Boston prov ed the opening for Gowdy's coming to Fsoeton along with Bridwen in the Hrade that rfpened at the time But Hank was not destined to stick with Rosfon. Hank was not taking base bali wzfh full seriousness in 1911. a1- 4f1ouzh having the earmarks Of a conner, and was turned loose for 1ur- tl,ea- seasOrang in the min ors.
 There at Buffalo. in the Information al League. Hank made the big hit, and when Sta1hngs put in call for Iris return to Boston Hank was rather 1naf1l to leave. The parting of Hank and the city of Buffalo is still marked as an epoch. as the shaking of every fndfvfdual citizeu's hand by Hennery consuuaed days and days.
 So Hank came back to Boston and he is still there a genuine catcher of khe G. T. Stallings school, than which there is none better.

KOHLEMAINEN BACK FROM FOREIGN TRIP

Flames Kohlemainen, the Flying Finn, whose cinder path performances have gained him the title of the Dis tance King, was around in New York athletic circles yesterday, telling the track and field fans how glad he was to be back in the land of the free and the home of the brave. flames ar rived on the Olympic on Wednesday.
 Flames 1t will be remembered, left in June to visit his home near Hell singfors, Finland, and to. take part in several races in Europe.

Five of them were on the track The other was getting from, Finland to Sweden and thence to England, where he secured passage on the Olympic for this country.

BRAVES NOW LEAD RACE BY
 SEVEN GAMES

Boston, Sept. 25-Boston's lead in the National league race was increased to seven full games yesterday, when the Braves whitewashed the Reds in the first game of a double-header, to 0, and held them to a, 2-to-2 tie in the second game. As New York lost again, the Braves gained 8 full game.
 The first game was won by timely hitting, coupled with Rudolph's great pitching, the local star holding the Cincinnati crew to five scattered bin gles.
 The Reds fought back hard in the second game, which was called on ac- count of darkness in the eighth inn ing. The game was played off today, when the two clubs met in their third straight doub1e4header.
 Crutcher and Schneider were the ri- val boxmen in the second game and both twir1ers were effective in the pin ches. Moran, an old. teammate of Schneider's showed his new compan- ions how to hit him, cracking out 8 triple and two singles, but they could not find the combination

JENNINGS THINKS BRAVES MAY SURPRISE
 ATHLETICS IN SERIES

The splendid work of the Boston
 Braves during the past few weeks has won the admiration of fans and
 baseball men generally The Braves hurling trio-RIIdolph, James and Ty- ller-have come in for lot of praise
 as well as Gowdy behind the bat, Ev-
 CTS and Maranvi11e. In recent sn- lterv1eW, Hughey Jennings. thrice man ager of an American league penuaut
 winner. prophsied that the AthleEdcs would have no wa1kaway when they
 tackle the Braves in the worlds ser
 ies.
 "A month ago." said the Detroit leader. T would have been willing to
 wager that the Athletics stood a good
 chance of winning four straight, pr at
 least capturing the series inside of i've
 games, but have changed my mind to certain extent. During the last
 month the Braves have won so many
 games in the ninth or extra innings that we must admit they have real class, for one of. the best indications of teams strength is it's ability to win the alright games that are not decided until the finish.
 They say the Braves have only
 one 300 hitter. What of. that? Didn't the White Sox win the American league pennaut in 1908 without a 300 hitter and then go in and win the
 worlds championship? Perhaps Con-
 molly Is the only 300 hitter, but new ertheless Stallings has a dangerous bunch Of batters, men who are there in the p1nches. In winning baseball games the batter who can hit with a
 man on el1frd Is of far more value than
 the man who will get two or three hits with no one on and pop up a little fly when the bases are occupied
 "A club could not show the game ness of the Braves without having players of class, players who have a
 right to be considered with the real
 heroes of the game

 In the west they claim players are so sore on the Athletics that they have been laying down in order to RIachmen. It is alleged that in the Detroit series the Detroit players made little effort to win from Boston.
 American league players are said to feel aggrieved at the Athletics because the worlds champions have not iden- tiled themselves with the Players fra terntty. The Athletics are over five games ahead of Boston. though, and 1t looks as if the Mackmen would win the flag in spite of all opposition.
 The Remington-Yost football fol- lowers are enthusiastic because Eddie Reilly has been induced to play half back this season. Eddie originally gained fame in that position but has preferred to play quarterback In re- cent years. He Is a. fleet runner and ought to make many gains for the 1o- cal eleven.
