School Series to Open.
Interest in scholastic foot ball here
will receive an impetus this week with
the opening Of the high school series
The first game is to be played tomor-
row, with Central and Eastern being
the opposing elevens. Friday one of
the big contests of the year is to take
place. when Business meets Tech. Not
much has been made known of the
Eastern eleven this season. the Capitol
Hill aggregation not having played
many practice games and little having
appeared concerning its real strength.
Central has done exceptionally well,
though, notwithstanding that 1t has
lost games. and the odds favor 1t to
win. Central ought to start the year
with victory, and then watch the game
of Friday between Technical and Bust
ness with the greatest of interest to
know which is going to prove its
strongest opponent for the title. With
Eastern an unknown Quantity and
Western, Business. Technical and Gen.
trail seemingly on par, one OF the
greatest series in the history Of high
school foot ball in Washington may be
looked for.

BASE BALL BRIEFS.

c. H. Mosely, former manager Of the
Fort Smith team in the Western Associa-
ton, is acting with Mike Balenti az
coach for the Baylor University foot ball
team. Between the two the Waco school
should be able to put out q winning
eleven.
The veteran player, Billy Lush, who
coached the base ball and basket ball
teams at Yale after retiring from the
diamond, has been named director OF
athletics at Fordham University. He
will coach all the Fordham teams except
varsity foot ball.
Though the Columbus team Of the
American Association looks like It could
stand rebuilding from A to 2. 1t did not
funds Is said to have been one SUFFICIENT
reason. Columbus fans got tired OF
promises and quit patronizing the team
long before the season ended.
The International League pennant race
between Buffalo and Providence was
tight one. but Toronto base ball MIS-
torian recalls an even more notaDie
one-that of 1902. when the race was
decided on the last day between Tor
onto and Buffalo. Toronto winning out
by beating Providence two games.
while Buffalo split even with Jersey
City. Jimmy Gardner pitched botn
games for Toronto that day.
An Oregon court has upheld g. law
pa ssed somewhere back in the sixties
which prevents doing anything much
on Sunday except breathing and going
to church. The authorities say they
will not enforce ii against base ball
unless compelled to by the preachers.
and even then there may be relief. Tor
oregon has a referendum plan by
which even a preacher may be circum-
vented in his efforts to stop the pro-
gress Of the world.

The other club owners in the league
do not hesitate to take a stand against
Comiskey receiving any further help
In the matter of players. The Chicago
magnate has been quoted as saying
that he would continue to spend money
for seasoned stars. and this has aroused
the other club owners, who think the
league would be benefited If some OF
the weaker clubs were helped. II ii
were left to the other club owners. they
would be unanimous for Mack to sell
Baker to the New York Yankees. That
team needs help in the way of players
and to have a winner there would be
of great benefit to all the other clubs in
the league. because New York will turn
out the crowds for a winner.
There was a lot of transformation
handed out just before the world series
as to the ability of various players.
For instance, it was pointed out that
Duffy Lewis, while touring last winter
with the all-stars, who wound up their
trip at Honolulu, found Alexander a
most troublesome pitcher; that in all
the games he faced him he did not bat
over 100.
Lewis faced Alexander eight times
in the recent world series. In the first
game he was up four times. and made
two hits, and in the second game which
Alexander pitched he got three hits In
four trips to the plate. winding up his
work against the Phillies' star with
batting average of .625.
Professional base ball is far behind the
amateur game in the matter of attend
ance at single contest.
In Cleveland the other day it is es-
timated that 100000 people witnessed an
amateur game, and a photograph printed
in the papers of that city seems to verify
the statement
The game was played in great natural
amphitheater at Cleveland. Arrangements
have been made for the construction of
a mammoth concrete stadium on the site.
Then if Cleveland ever wins a pennant
and gets into a world series there will
be ample room to accommodate all the
fans who want to see the games.
The game in question was the first
game Of the National Amateur League
series, with the White Autos and Omaha
Luxus as the contending teams. There
was no admission charged.
Jess Willard, the conqueror of Jack
johnson, will have to make his appear
ance in the ring this winter if he expects
to retain any popularity.
A new champion, whose prowess still
is generally doubted, cannot afford to re-
main idle more than q year Wizards
friends undoubtedly realize this fact, and
will urge him to meet the best Of the
present crop Of heavies some time during
the winter. Such a battle could be pulled

him, and If he is real champion he
should not have much trouble cleaning
them up. 90
Even during the off season Walter
Johnson's luck in pitching for team
which seldom gets him any runs, seems
to hang on to him. Yesterday ne
pitched a game against Earl Hamilton
at Springfield. Mo, and he was beaten,
to 0. Though he allowed but two hits
against five made of off Hamilton he
nevertheless lost his game. fni
/ Johnson picks up quite a bunch OF
money every fall pitching exhibition
games in the section of the country
where he winters. He is naturally a
big attrac tion in the small towns where
they have heard much of him, and it
is possible for the promoters of these
games to pay him a handsome sum to
pitch. a8
Though there has been some criticism
of Sam Crawford's playing during the
past season. the report that he will be
let out probably is not based on facts
Crawford still is one of the best hitters
in the game. and the most popular of
the Tigers in Detroit. He has an ideal
disposition and has been in the game
for Detroit for SO many years that he
is idolized there and the club would
not think of letting him go to some
other club u
Crawford, in fact, would not tolerate
of a saving disposition and is well sup
piled with this worlds goods. He is
one of the few players who can retire
and live easy for the rest of his days

Only Penalty World Series

NEW YORK, October 1S.-
When Joe Wood of the Red Sox
collected his share of the world
series spOils he discovered that
$25 had been deducted by the ma
tiOnal commission. 1t seems that
when Erskine Mayer began pitch
ing for the Phillies In the last
game of the series Wednesday,
Wood, on the bench, lost his head
and tried to rattle Moran's box
man. Umpire KLEIN, who was be-
hind the bat, quickly warned
Wood, and the latter kept his
mouth closed until Mayer start
ed the second inning. Then the
Boston pitcher resumed his verbal
attack, which WAS cut short when
KLEIN plastered him With q SIS
fine. Wood did not believe that
Klein would report the penalty.
and was disagreeably surprised
when he counted his money. This
was the only fine imposed in the
series.
