FROn SENIORS, 90

The three points Tailed in the
second quarter seemed to give the
third-year men new life, and they
plunged through the upperclass
defense time after time, carrying
the ball within striking distance
of their opponents line. Hunt
was sent over for a touchdown.
The seniors braced in the last
quarter and held the winners for
the remaining part of the game.
Hunt, Parker, Todd and Eisen-
berk played a great game.
The juniors will play the So
phomores Friday for the school
championship.

TEACHERS DINE
AND TALK SHOP

Members of the High School
Manual Teachers club met Tues
day evening at the Hotel Bonnie
Vile for their first meeting. The
club elected Charles Colais presi-
dent and decided to hold monthly
meetings.
Ten members. including, the
manual training staffs of both the
Stadium and Lincoln park high
schools, sat down to an elaborate
banquet, after which they dis
cussed matters pertaining to man
ual training work.
Those who attended the meet

yelled my head off at umpires and
I've umpired amateur games
where l nearly had my head
taken off.
| consider myself lucky to have
met several big league umpires.
/ found them a fine set of men.
l found they are just like other
human beings. They eat, sleep,
talk and do everything just like
a regular person.
l have always found the UNI
pire willing to treat the fan cor
daily. He doesn't care much
about talking baseball, but he will
answer any reasonable question a
fan puts to him.
The umpires who will work in
the world series are bound to be
fair. They hold their jobs be-
cause of their ability. A single
decision may throw the world Sc
ries to one side or the other, but
I'll bet the umpire who makes
the decision will call the play
just as 1t looks to him, without
any thought of which player,
which team or which league it
hits.
l believe fans should make il
a point to get acquainted with an
umpire once in awhile, just to see
the kind of fellow he Is, Don't
quit roasting him when you get

PHILLIES
WIN THE
REMNANT

BOSTON, Sept. 30.-Philadel-
phia's National league team will
have a chance this year for
worlds championship baseball
honors.
By defeating the Boston Braves
in a SO, one-hit cvontest yester-
day afternoon the Philadelphia
team won the National penpant.
The esason is not over yet, but
Philadelphia has such a lead that
1t can lose every succeeding game
without being dislodged.
Alexander was responsible for
the victory. He pitched superb
ball. The Boston players did
their best to hit the ball, bat
Magee was the only Brave to get
even a single.
Three of the Phillies' runs
came in the first. Bancroft sin
gled. Cravath walked. And
Paskert, the home run wonder,
slammed out his 23rd homer of
the season, for three TALES.

jump for the teams visiting that
city. With two other cities In
the league up here, the Portland
expenses would be made much
lighter.
Powers, as well as other mag
mates in the Coast league, will
make fight at the coming direc-
tors meeting. for an expansion of
the circuit. 1t is believed that
Tacoma, with Coast league team
and new management here could
easily support a good ball club.
The personality of the Tiger man
agement during the 1915 season
mas caused lack of patronage at
Athletic park more than any 9TH
er single feature.
Tacoma fans want good ball.
but above all things they want it
handled in sportsmanlike and
not brazenly monetary spirit.

TACOMA SCHOOLS
CLUBS WILL HELP
STUDENTS CHOOSE
FUTURE VOCATIONS

Three student clubs for the
purpose Of investigating the pro-
fessional. commercial and indus
trial fields with q view towards
= future livelihood have been
started at Stadium high school.
This plan was launched last
Thursday when Principal Hunt
suggested the plans of organizing
the clubs to the boys In a mass
meeting In the auditorium.
He said the purpose of these
organizations was to open the
boys eyes to the future; to make
them realize that they were In
school for a purpose and to help
them find their calling, rather
than to have them continue in
high school blindly.
Many boys go through high
school and college without an idea
OF what they are doing II for. he
said. These clubs will start them
thinking.

Yellow slips we're sent to every
roll room Tuesday and 219 boys
bignified their intentions of join

many of them selecting two.

Commercial club with q member

mercial businesses will aid the
boys in cleaning an insight into
the pitfalls and successes of this
field of activity.
Only expert speakers will be
called upon to address the diffe"-
ent clubs. Each club will have
its own committee composed of
two boys who will be elected at
the next meeting and the faculty
advisor. This committee will APP
point boys to carry on different

II begins to look as though Ia
coma might get into the Coast
league next year.
Practically all the owners Of
teams now In the Coast organiza-
tion have recently expressed pref
erence for an eight-team league.
and have suggested Tacoma and
Seattle as the newcomers.
John Y. Powers, president of
the Los Angeles club, yesterday
afternoon announced that he ia
vored an expansion in the Coast
league. and offered Tacoma and
Seattle as two cities to be taken
in. He suggested that Portland
drop out Of the league, but 1t is
not probable that Portland would
leave the Coast bunch if Tacoma
and Seattle entered the circuit.

PHILADELPHIA
is BALL CRAZY

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 80. -
Philadelphia, the most. staid and
dignified city in America, is once
more baseball crazy. When the
news was flashed over the city
last night that the Phillies had
finally won a pennant, the fans
lost control of themselves. A
crowd of thousands of fans had
gathered in City Hall plaza to see
the electric scoreboard report the
game, and when the contest was
over, and Philadelphia had been
proclaimed winner of the pen
nant, bedlam broke loose.

AROUND THE CITY.
THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT.

In this weeks issue Of the Pro-
gressive, will be found the financial
statement of the City of Belington,
for the years 1914 and 1915, as pre-
pared by the officials of our city
and certified to by the finance com
mittee. The statement should be
perused by the taxpayers Of our city
as everyone should take an interest
in the receipts and disbursements of
our city. The statement shows that
the old council last night turned over
to the newly qualified officials the
sum Of $1577.45. They received last
year from the outgoing council the
sum Of $2765.17 One Thousand dol
lars was added this year to the sink
ing fund. Taken altogether the re-
port shows that the outgoing council
has been very economical in the dis
bursement of the city's funds.
