When President Farr and Man.
ager Bob Wicker of the Spokane
club dickered with Joe McGinnity
last Sunday and induced him 90
take the Tigers to Spokane for a
12-game series at price of ST.
900. they really thought that
they were buying the 1915 PEN
nant.
1t has remained for Messrs.
Farr and Wicker to receive the
one big surprise of their lives.
In five games they have seen
their estimable club drop from
first to second place and they
have the pleasing prospect of see
ing 1t drop still further.
While in Seattle the baseball
fans are chuckling up their
sleeves at the back-slap that those
Spokane gentlemen have received.
Spokane was scheduled to play
in Tacoma for this series. Farr
and Wicker figured that their In
dams would do much better on
the home lot, and they had Il
doped out that a series with Ia
coma on the Spokane Recreation
park diamond would just about
land the Inland Empire city high
and dry on the championship
shelf.
Seattle kicked, walled, shouted
and roared.
1t declared that Farr and Nc
Ginnity had jobbed the league,
and that the series would not be
official because it was not au-
thorized by the league president.
The first games, ON Labor day,
were even played in Spokane
without the presence of a league
umpire on the lot.
But instead of winning hands
down from the Tacoma team,
Spokane has received an April
fool package. The Tigers, show
ing a late-season rally, have been
trimming Spokane quite regular
ly.
On Labor day the clubs split
a double-header. On Tuesday Ia
coma won by 81 to 4. Wednes-
day 1t was to 2, and yesterday

WANTED BOOTBLACK STAND:
HOW HE'S after BANTAM TITLE

Pete Gugletta, an Italian boy,
whose ambition a few years ago
was to own a bootblack stand of
his own in New Orleans, where
he lived, is now bantamweight
scrapper of note and the lad
against whom Kid Williams will
likely have to defend his title In
a short time.
Gugletta was shining shoes In
the barber shop of New Orleans
hotel when he got the idea Of hav-
ing stand of his own. But he
needed money with which to buy
u stand. He decided to try the
ring game.
For a starter he was matched
with Eddie Coulon, who was also
starting out, and the purse
amounted to IS, winner take all.
They boxed a draw, and did so
well they were rematched. This
time Gugletta won.
Then he placed himself under
the managerial wing of Red
Walsh, who had been handling
boxers for some time. The first
thing Walsh did was to change
the lads name from Pete Gugletta
to Kid Herman, and as Kid Her.

CLUB
PLANS BUSY
SEASON =.

At well attended meeting Of
stockholders. the Lakeside Coun-
try club last night voted unanim-
ously to devote its efforts this
winter to strengthening it's fin
ancial resources, with an idea of
making big increases next spring
in the athletic features of the
cluL.
Stockholders were enthusiastic
over the past season, declaring it
to have been the most successful
in the history of the club. The
membership is practically full,
and more interest has been shown
this summer in golf, tennis and
aquatic sports than ever before.
Last nights meeting was in the
form of smoker, held at the
club house. 1t was followed by
an informal dance.

LESSONS

The announcement made this
week by Horace r. Carter, SWIM
ming instructor, is being met
with much approval by downtown
people who feared the classes at
Lincoln Park High would be elm
mated when the fall session start

Many transients, staying in the
city for short time, have taken
advantage of the instruction.

New Piano
At Stadium

Eighteen hundred dollars
worth of brand new Knabe piano
graces the stage of the Stadium
auditorium this year as evidence
OF considerable hard work on the
parts of the students interested
IN music. Supervisor Ball and the
Tacoma school board.
The old Chickering, after doing
services through nearly two high
school generations, was traded in
on the new piano.
Funds obtained from concerts
and operas given at the high
school were added to by a dona-
ton from the school board, and
the deed was done.

1t was again to 2. In, the mean
time Seattle has walked over
vancouver and by winning yester-
day slipped into the league lead
Seattle fans are now quite
happy over the turn in affairs,
and there's little cause to believe
that the Spokane series will be
protested.
However, President Farr and
Manager Wicker are wondering
why they ever guaranteed Nc
Ginnity $1,000 for bringing his
club to Spokane. It's a joke that
they can't see through. a-tali, "a

Soccer
Season
Begins

Soccer eventually will become
the universal grammar school
game, according to the opinion Of
n. P. Kelley, supervisor of ath-
letics In the city schools.
He believes 1t is the best game
for the small boy, giving him a
greater opportunity for individual
work, and allowing greater
number to obtain exercise, re-
gardless of size.
Practically every grammar
school in Tacoma is playing the
English game. There are two Or
three holdouts. Some principals
favor the American game because
of the lack of playing field ia
cilities," he said.
Tacoma, starting its third sea-
son of soccer. is farther along in
this line, of sport than Baltimore
= after six years."
The coaching will be all done
BY experts who have known the
game for years. many of them
learning the game in the old
country.
This training is the cause for
the great advancement made in
Tacoma, in Kelley's opinion.
Central Team Out.
Central school was the first IN
the city to start active soccer
practice, getting together yester-
day.
Last year Sc teams, using more
than 500 different players, con-
tested for the six championships
of the city.
It is expected the number will
reach far in advance of last years
figure.
By the end of next week near
" every school will have squads
ct work.

Trying Hard To Change
The Subject.

The following strong endorsement
of the Democratic platform and the
man who il pledged to its faithful
performance is clipped from the
Baltimore Sun Of Tuesday, Oct. 10,
and, in our opinion, is we'll worth
careful consideration by all to whom
the better interests of the State rs
of importance :
How the Republicans do dislike
that Goodnow Efficiency and Econo-
my Commission! How they do hate
to give the Democrats credit for en-
listing the services of such men as
DIR. Goodnow and his colleagues IN
the public service! How hard they
hold back from admitting that it
was Mr.. Harrington who, back in
August, first suggested and advocat-
ed the commission and that he has
put it through in fine shape. How
mad il does make them to be unable
to cavil ut or criticize that commis-
sion move and how painfully they
do labor TO take away the force of
DIR. Goodnow's acceptance by scar
ing up first one and then another
bugaboo that will have the appear
ance of nm obstacle
The truth in that the Goodnow
Commission constitutes the gilt-edge
securitv which the Democrats have
given for the faithful performance
of their splendid platform pledges,
and the strength of the appeal this
enables them to make to the people
is such rs TO take the very heart and
life cut of the Weller campaign.
Backed up as it is With Mr.. Har-
rington's personal pledge, in addi-
tiOn to the platform pledges of the
whole party, the commission stands
forth rs the real instrument by which
the State is to gain the big
things it needs, and the best way of
hampering and handicapping its
work would be to elect a Republic
can Governor, who is pledged in no
way to support its recommendation
and could ignore them without
political danger"
