MORE ALUMNI
 F0R PRACTICE
Nearly Enough for Two Teams Now Preparing for Saturdays Game Against CoyOtes-Some More of Geary's Shifts
BY ALBERT PENNEY

The Alumni footballists are gather ing fast like crows over cornfieId, or buzzards over a dead one. Do they reckon we art defunct, do you SUD- pose? I wot not
 Almost enough old boys got out last night to make two teams. This is classy and shows that the grads expect to cop the bacon Saturday.
 It ought to be an evenly matched game. Figures were available yes terday, and from them we learn the Alumni will weigh about 150 as oP- posed to our own 145 pounds per man.
 The Alumni backfield keeps moving us to words. There is Boots Harri- son, the old reliable quarterback, who played fine ball with the Coyotes two seasons ago. Boots is heady and plays the tricky game. There is also George Peters, who won fame at Oc- cidental last year and was rated as one of the star half backs of the coast. He is captain, and is insisting on real work by his team.
 Jake Thoman, who plays the other half was one of the Coyote main stays, although it never would have done to have called him that in those days. Headgears were too eXpen- sive.
 Big Irion at fullback is enough said. He is the passer de luxe, the yooman battering ram, the fost interfering big gink on the squad.
 Marian Demands Strong Line
 TOmmie Marian in conversation with Coach Geary is demanding that a good deal of attention be given to making the line an iron one. He de- sires a backfield with a flat trajec tory. as our guner cousins say, but please put the line in black face capitals.
 The Coyotes will not have so much opposition from the other high schools this year, but it's the class of the upper strata of schools that we must prepare for. For instance, Flagstaff, and Tempe Normal, Indians. Uni versity of Arizona second eleven and let us not forget the big-a da brud- ders-the Alumni.
 Luke will probably stick in the quarter Walters and Norton now ap- pear to be first choice or halves, and Westfall has been doing some full backing. It's a shame to bust up the tackle duo this way, but the coach knows his biznai.
 Maxwell will run a lot of buSSeS rom Central and Washington to the seat of the war, and with the aid of few jitneys, the transportation on a three minute basis is assured. The game will be called at 3:3O ex- actly.

UNIQUE BET ON
 VOLLEYBALL GAME

The Russians defeated the Neu- trals last night at the Y. M. c. A. at volleyball. The Neutrals had not played together before and lacked experience. The Russians are the best balanced team and had team work all through the game.
 Next Friday evening the Kaisers play the Johnie Bulls. Dick Erd- mans and Roger Laveen made a novel bet that if the Johnie Bulls lose Laveen will let his whiskers grow month. If the Kaisers lose Erdmans will start a real Kaiser mustache.

NORMAL PLAYS
 THE UNIVERSITY
Schaeffer Grows More Op- timistic as First Game Approaches = Peda- gogles Buck Hard Opener at Tucson Saturday
Special to The Republican,


 TEMPE, Oct. 6.-A game next Satur+ day at Tucson with the University of Arizona opens the football season for the Tempe Normal squad and following on the heels of that contest is a string of games that will keep the Pedagogues regularly occupied each Saturday up to Thanksgiving. Glendale, Phoenix, the Indian school, Flagstaff Normal and possibly Prescott or Clifton high schools will be met on the gTidiron by the local squad this season according to the schedule now doped out.
 Coach George H. Schaeffer is in creasingly optimistic, Tempe Normal won five out of the eight games played last year. and with the added material that has come in this season, Schaef- fer is whipping an eleven into shape that he believes will put up a good scrap and win over the majority of the teams in the state.
 There is little dope for the Saturday game. Schaeffer scheduled it with the idea of putting his men up against the best there is, right at the start and thereby he expects his men to gain some valuable experience. What the university boys have in the way of a football eleven and what they have done so far this season is not known locally. The Normal will send fourteen men down, taking the SEQ train out of here Saturday morning and returning either that night or the following day.
 Out on the Normal field two full squads, most of the men as husky and ironmade as football players are in their normal days, are going through hard and consistent practice each night. No first team has been selected vet nor is a selection likely until after the final practice Friday evening. Among the fellows now trying out are: Coffin and Enterton for center; Ivy, Maier, Berry. Heffelman and Cauthen for guards; Turner, Howe and Ivy for tackle; McLennan, Harris, Foster, Reeves and Romo for ends; Scanlon, Brown and Laney for quarter; Adams. Buck and Griffin, for half back and Moeur and Finch for full back
 Schaeffer's schedule for other games this season looks something like this: Glendale high, in Tempe on October r; Phoenix high, in Tempe on Oct 23: Indian school, in Tempe on Oct 30; Flagstaff Normal, in Tempe on Nov. 8; Phoenix Indian school, at Phoenix on Nov. 13, and probably Prescott or Cliff ton here on Thanksgiving day.
 Tempe and Mesa high schools are passing up the football season this year and during their spare moments the athletes are working into shape in anticipation of basketball season which follows after Thanksgiving.

PETER V0LO |S
 EASY WINNER
Queer Twists of Track Luck Explained by For mer Speed Superintend- ent Wood-Horses That
 Appear on Phoenix Track

sIts queer, said Postmaster Wood yesterday. in what different form horses appear to be at different times and on different tracks. Last year at the Arizona. state fair Lon McDonald's crack mare. the Duchess, lost out in the 2:16 trot, although apparently she was in the best of condition and In perfect form. This year she goes to Lexington and wins the 2:10 trot in straight heats.
 May Mack, who set world record at Phoenix last fall for the fastest three heats ever trotted by mare, was out classed at Lexington by Peter Nolo, the wonderful five-year-old stallion trot- ter. That is not so. much to be surprised at though as Peter VOlo has been a champion ,two-year-Old, champion three year old, d champion fOur-year- old and is now not only a champion five-year old but a champion trotter for any age It is no wonder he beat May Mack and Margaret Druien at LeXing- ton, but he had to go in 2:022 and 2:O2% to do it.
 Mr. Thomas w. Murphy, the trainer and driver of Peter VolO, has offered to bring this wonderful five-year-old to the Arizona state fair this fall and Sec retary Shaughnessy is now negotiating with MT. Murphy for his appearance.
 All this simply shows that the fast est ones come to Phoenix and that to see the fastest horses in the world and the best racing staged on any track. all you have to do is to simply stay at home and attend the Arizona state fair

Hale and Miss Merta Work entertained a large number of their friends at an informal reception and musicale at their studio in the cham Der of commerce building last evening The guests included nearly all prom inent musicians of the city together with a number of their friends. Among the interesting features of the evening was a new song, Blue But terflies, written by MT. Hale which was rendered as a solo number by MT. Mills, the selection being most heartily received by those assembled. Mrs w. H. Sargent gave several vocal solos, and piano solos were ren- dered by Miss Work and MT. Hale.

PILLS TAKE TWO FROM BROOKLYN;
 TAPER|NG OFF !!
ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH ig This is Resting, What' Moranmen Do To Boston,. Braves
 Cinch Second Place

PHILADELPHIA, oct 6.-The Phil adelphia Nationals had a good prac- tice today in preparation for the worlds series which begins here Fri day. Alexander, who is expected to carry the pitchers burden for the Phillies, is in as good d condition as he has been at any time this year. Tomorrow and Friday morning will be devoted to keeping men in condition.
 Alexander has done comparatively little twirling in the last two weeks. Manager Pat Moran preferring that the Nebraskan conserve his strength for heavy work to come. Pitcher Mayer. who with Chalmers is eX- pected to help Alexander bring the worlds title to Philadelphia, also took things easy.
 All the players are already tuned up and ready for the fray, but light work will be done tomorrow and Friday.
 The fact Nhitted played both games today was encouraging to fans. Whitted injured his side in the final drive for the pennant and it was belived for a time he had either broken or dislOcated a rib.
 Niehoff, whose legs were none too good. also reported ready to play.
 One great mystery that remains to be solved is the condition of Bill Killifer's arm. Tie big catchers throwing arm went dead" several weeks ago, and while he has ap- peared in uniform he has not at tempted to catch in any regular games Killifer says his arm lis coming around all right" but skep- tics would feel much better if they could see him in action. Burns. who has been doing most of the catching in Killifer's absence, has been given a good rest, and is again in trim as was shown in his work in the first game of today's double header.
 Alexander will pitch the first game. and with him in good form Philadelphia players do not see now they can lose. What little betting :as been done on the series so far shows that odds that prevailed in Boston's favor are gradually short ening. some betters want even money.
 The weather man predicts cloudy skies, and possibly rain Friday.

Glendale team, who wanted a game with Phoenix for Saturday. But MT. Taylor said it was too late. The Alumni were out practicing a hund- red strong.
 Why is it that after the class games the foot ball players begin to thin out Is it because the ones who drop out, think they won't have another chance to show off, by mak- ing the famous grand stand plays?
 Owing to the fact that Louie Hart has so much to do in Politics after school, Mgr. Taylor appointed a new water boy who has proved satis- factory so far. He says Gall me AT boys. if you want a sponge"
 Riverside park ball field has been all cleaned up and made into a mighty fast gridiron, at which the battle of "shoot the ball to Brown, and he'll make a touchdown will take place Saturday.
 Fellow members of the scrub team, let not the new Jerseys, pants nor stockings change your mind, nor let the first team affect your playing, but stick out and practice with the scrubs. All you need is what you've got and that is the spunk to get in and dig. A foot ball player is never made by putting aim in new Jersey. There is a mighty good chance for promotion, so don't get discouraged, but stick and receive your reward later. Signed, "Exper- ience."

Little To Choose Between
 Champion Catching Corps
ASSOCIATED PRESS p1spArcH1

NEW YORK, Oct. 6.-Offensively and defensively there appears to be little advantage for either the Bos- ton Americans or the Philadelphia Nationals, in the catching depart ments, in the coming worlds series. Both the Red SoX and the Phillies have trio of backstops who are far above the ordinary in ability in this particular feature of the game. The American League champions in Man ager Carrigan, Cady and Thomas have three experienced catchers who are thoroughly at home behind the plate and familiar with every detail of the position. Killifer is the vet eran of the Phillies catching force but Burns has shown, during the past season, that he is not far be- hind his chief in all-round ability While Adams the third string catcher is yOungster who, in his few try outs, has given promise of measur- ing up to the standards set by his two superiors in the near future.
 While experience counts for much in the work behind the plate, it is not always the veterans who shine in the big baseball series If this was
 
 wide margin of reserve strength since Carrigan and Cady both fig ured prominently in the famous eight-game struggle between the Gi- ants and the Red Sox in 1912. where as none of the Phillies' catchers has figured in fight for the premier pennant of the diamond game Thus it can be seen that so far as expcr- IG Carrigan and Cady to the Phillies killifer, Burns and Thomas, are about equal in this respect while Moran's third eligible is an unknown quantity.
 So far as the figures for the sea sons work can be used for a basis or comparison, however, there is nothing to indicate that much diff ference of ability exists in the actual work of the players under consid eratlon Kiilifer has caught a ma 1orlty of the games played by the Phlllles this year with Burns filling in as emergency and relief catcher. The former has a fielding average or .973 and batted PAT while Burns fas batted one point above KilIifer's average and fielded four points bc low. Adams record fails to show participation in play for the pen nant.
 For Boston, Cady and Thomas have done the major part of the backstop ping although Manager Carrisan has handled the delivery of the left handlers, from time to time. CaGv Is the best of the trio if judgment can be figured on the seasons un- official averages. In something over seventy games he has batted PIT and fielded .967 Thomas, in about an equal number of games has field ed .971 and batted 239. Carrigan mas received credit for playing in q little more than half the number of games that Cady and Thomas baye officiated in and his averages arc. fielding, .967; batting, POT.
 The individual averages and the averages of the rival catching do partments. considered as units ara as follows.
