NEWARK DEL MARS
take ON CONTINENTALS

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.
NEWARK, Sept. 22.-To settle
controversy as to the relative merits
Of the two teams a three game series
has been arranged between the New
ark club of the Del-Mar League, and
the Continental Fibre Co. team. The
first game will be played next Satur-
day afternoon. II is to be the two
best of three games the winner to get
so and the loser 40 per cent. of the
receipts. The Continental Club has
been playing a fast game all season
having defeated most Of the best in
dependent clubs Of the county.
The excellent showing made by Con
tinental during the season has won
them many friends who think with
Grow pitching they have an excellent
chance Of defeating Newark. The
games will. no doubt, attract large
crowds.
The Continental club was in the
series for the Independent cham
pionship of the county with Delaware
Hard Fibre. Wildel A. c., East End
A. c.. fremont and Chesrook but
Manager Jackson withdrew after re-
ceiving what he claims was a raw
deal on the part of the other mana
gers Continental had won two games
both OF which we're protested on
1imsy grounds. Both protests we're
upheld and the games taken from Con-
tinental II was this action that
caused Manager Jackson TO withdraw.
He claims however, that no team can
rightfully lay claim to the indepen-
dent championship until Continental
is defeated. and feels sure that no
one of the above five clubs can de-
feat his club.

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.
NEWARK, Del. Sept 22.-The return
of Captain "Vic7 Handy caused much
rejoicing in the Delaware College foot
ball camp yesterday afternoon. II had
been reported that Captain Handy would
not return TO college, and the fact that
Crawford, last years fullbac<, also left
to enter Lehigh, would make il neces-
sary for Coach AIcAvoy TO develop two
new backteld men. The return OF
Handy, however, gives him three of last
years backheld men, namely Handy,
Taylor and Fidance, quarterback IL is
likely Handy will play fullback this
year, and another halfback developed.
There are several men out for the
haltback position. In the signal prac-
tice yesterday afternoon, Weldin, for
merly with Friends High, was worked
in the baclSfeld Chester Smith. who
made such good showing at halfbacS
on the scrubs last season, is looked on
as likely prospect for the varsity
backfield. BrattOn, another of the 1914
scrubs, is thought TO be the making Of
a good halfback, but he is now being
worked on tho line.
In the signal practice Yesterday the
varsity were lined up as follows: Left
end, Croft; left tackle, Bratton; left
guard, Newton; centre. Crothers; right
guard, +. Wilson; right tackle. r.. VIII
son; right end. Smart quarterback H-
dance; halfbacSs, Taylor and Weldin,
and fullback, Handy Aker, freshman
from Delaware City, who formerly play

with Croft at end and looks fairly good

years ago, and is now back in college.

and c. Smith for the bacl, field. Grav.
who substituted in enough games last
year in both the bacllfeld and on the
line to make him "D," has not been out
so far and there is some talk of him
leaving college.
The return of Handy and the fact that
both Croft and Newton. of last wears
team. have come out despite the intima
tion that they would not play football
their last year in college. gives Coach
McAvoy all Of the 1914 varsity with the
exception of Crawford. who entered lie.
high, and Cam and Grieves. two line
men, who graduated.
Wilson O'Daniel. scrub quarterback

MACK Wants A Slant
AT MR.. HOGAN WELL !

NEWARK, Del. Sept. 22-Jake
Hogan. for three years pitcher on
the local club and who by many was
considered the best twirler in the Del
aware Maryland League this season,
has received a letter from Connie
Mack, manager Of the Philadelphia
Athletics, asking him to come to Phil
adelphia for a workout at Shibe
Park.
On the recommendation Of Bert
Everson. the local southpaw went to
Shbe Park last spring and worked
out for a short time with Thomas
catching him and Mack watching his
work. Mack seemed pleased with
what Hogan showed and also offered
some criticism about his pitching.
Since then Hogan had heard nothing
from the great manager until he re-
ceived his letter this week request
ing him to report at Shibe Park for
another workout. Hogan will go to
Philadelphia Monday, and it is pos
sible that he may be given trial in
the box.
Hogan started for the Elk Mills
club several years ago and his pitch
ing kept that club in the Tri-County
League races for two or three sea-
sons. The first of this season he
pitched some fine games including
a sixteen-inning game against Park
side at Front and Union streets. Will
mington. During the latter part Of
the season his work was not so good
but the entire team was going bad.
Hogan is a cousin of vic" Willis,
the former Boston and Pittsburg star
twirler.

Our old friend Jimmy Jackson, bet
ter known as just plain Jimmy"
had very successful season i'm the
Western League this year. After CIV
ing Wilmington its first league pen
nant, the fighting Phiiadelphian went
west to take charge of the Topeka
club Of the Western League. Jimmy
managed to bring home his first class
A team under the wire in third place.
Besides showing much knowledge
as pilot, the hustling little outfield-
er dubbed the sphere at $40 clip.
During the last home stay of his team
in Topeka, the fans of that town pre-
sented him with a gold watch and
chain. Eddie Monroe, who caught
some great ball in the Tri-State
League for Allentown, did the bulk
of the backstopping for Jackson. Mon
roe was drafted by the Brooklyn
club. One particular feat that Jimmy
pulled off during the latter weeks of
the season was to clout home run
with the bases loaded while the
score stooo to / against his club.
Delivering in the pinches is one of
Jimmy Jackson's essentials in the
grand old game. Another thing that
the local sports and admirers of our
Jimmy Jackson will be glad to know
is that his job as a leader of a class
A club is good for the 1916 season.
Allen Russell, who practically won
the pennant by his superb pitching
for the 1913 Chicks. won his first
major league game. a few days ago.
The fact that Russell won a game
in the big show is not so astonishing
to the fans who have seen Allen per
form. incidentally. his winning of
that game brought much Joy to the
heart of Manager Bill Donovan of
the Yankees. Manager Donovan was
very much impressed with the work
of his new moundsman and is already
predicting a great future for Allen.
Russell twirled some great games
for the Richmond club which finished
seventh in the International League
this year Following is his complete
record in professional ball.

son as a member Of the Hagerstown
club of the Blue Ridge League. After
playing about a month with that or
ganization, Jimmy was signed by the
Petersburg club of the Virginia Lea
que. He put up a classy article of
ball for that team. During a game
between the Portsmouth and Peters
burg teams two pitched balls spelled
defeat for the former. The score
stood / to in favor of Portsmouth
in the sixth inning Donovan the first
man up in the seventh. banged the
first ball thrown up for a homer. The
next pitched ball was lifted over the
left field fence for a circuit clout,
by our own Jimmy.
Gus Gleichman. the Irvington, N. j.
lad. who held down left field and first
base for the Chicks in 1913. and
who was developed by Jack Dunn, is
putting up his usual fiashy game for
the Vernon team of the Pacific Coast
League. Gleichman was one of the
most popular diamond stars that ever
wore a Chick suit. He recommended
Howard Morgan to the Wilmington
club Reports that come from the
coast have it that Gus will go higher
next year.
Olen Hackett, manager of the
Madeley team of the Church League,
is very much peeved over the fact
that Edge Moor refuses to play off
the first game of the series for the
championship at New Castle. II is
hardly likely that the game will be
played at Union street grounds
There will be something doing at
New Castle on Saturday when the
first New Castle-Vandever game for
the State championship will be play
ed. Both teams are on edge for a
victory. Much rivalry exists between
the clubs, inasmuch as the All-Wil-
mington League Bancroft team clean
ed up a similar series with Newark
last year. Manager Dan Farren is
confident that the Vandever boys will
come clean this time. while on the
other hand that McDevitt boy can
see nothing but victory.
Harvey Hall. Skinny Johnson, and
Grow Prowd have been allowed 10
play with Vandever. Gene Chase, the
Traction Co. star, Huston and Wallace
have been permitted TO play with N "
Castle. The playing of the new mar
was agreed upon. owing to the fac
that sometime or other, they had
