TENNIS LEAGUE SMOKER.
Department Racqueters to Have
Big Time Tomorrow Night.

The smoker to be given tomorrow
evening at the New Ebbitt by the De-
partmental Tennis League promises to
be one of the biggest affairs of the
kind ever held in this city. The COM
mittee having the smoker in charge
reports that more than two hundred
tennis enthusiasts will sit down to the
tables and listen to several excellent
speakers from out of town and also
from this city. E. Y. Leech will act as
POSTMASTER. and his reputation here
tofore insures that things will be kept
moving all the time. Col. Harts. super
intendent of public buildings and
grounds, is to be an honored guest.
The colonel has done everything pos
sible for the league at the public
courts during the past season, and the
organization naturally wants him to
be on hand to enjoy the fun.
The Navy team captured the cham
pionship, and the smoker" is given
as a sort Of reward to the winners
Capt. Hancock of the team has been
helping the committee along, and he as
sures the league that nothing will be left
undone to carry it through to a great
big success. The committee would like
to assure the tennis enthusiasts of the
city that they will be welcome. 1t is
no closed affair, purely informal and
an enjoyable evening with a boom for
the net game is all that is aimed at.

MUST CUT EXPENSES,
President Sexton Says Minors Are
Throwing Money Away.

SAN FRANCISCO. Cal. November TO-
The National Association of Profess

terday for its fourteenth annual ses-
sion. but the delegates only spent ten
minutes in the convention hall, put
ting over the actual business of the
year until today. An executive session
will be held, and only delegates will
be admitted.
II expect that the regulation of SAL
aries will be one of the problems to
come before us said President Sexton.
For several years ! have been con-
vinced that il would take a catastrophe
such as we have suffered to bring the
owners to their senses and make them
realize that they have thrown their
money away. Not alone in salary linn
its. but in other expense accounts. such
as the cutting down of spring training,
can we reduce"
Sexton has declared that he would
not be candidate for reelection as
president of the association, but it is
evident from the sentiment of the dele
gates that he will be forced to retain
that post.

Apparently beaten at the beginning
of the fourth quarter of yesterday
game with Central. Technical High
eleven brought forth great rally and
scored enough points to give 1t the
victory by a margin of 1. 1t was on
the slender matter of a goal kicked
that Technical won. Central went
into the fourth quarter with the count
standing 12 to in its favor ana Will
out having made either of the soais
from touchdown; Tech had not scored
but in the minute period got
across the Blue and White goal twice
and booted the ball over the cross
bar once out of the two attempts
Technical was much the heavier ana
had by far the greater power. 1T
gained many times more ground than
Central, but what it did not do was to
take advantage of it's opportunities
as did the Blue and White boys. Cen

That Tech was able to cross Centrafs
goal twice within ten minutes IS SUI
f1cient evidence Of the wonderful and
plucky manner in which Central con-
tested the right of the Manual Train
ers to victory during those first three
periods. OF course. Central got the
breaks. but it got them not because
luck favored it, and only for the rea-
son that it played more alert and spir-
tied foot ball.
Jakey Roberts played brilliantly for
Tech and little Johnny Saxon was the
particular star for Central That
youngster was on the job every min
ute. and though hardly large enough
even to put on a foot ball suit he made
his presence felt. One of the touch
downs made by Central was got by
Saxon when he picked up fumbied
ball and scooted across the goal line,
and defensvely and extensively the
youngster was there
The game still leaves Business and
Tech in a tie for first place. neither
having been defeated. If Business wins
from Western it will be certain almost
that the season ends in a tie.

Furthermore, there are reasons for
believing that the hackers of the ne"
league have not entirely given up hope
of becoming identified with organized
base ball, though. perhaps. 1t was
thought advisable to create the impress
sion that the Feds were ready to re-

The very fact that Gilmore made all

it no doubt was made plain to the dis
gruntled element that the minors posi-
