EXETER ATHLETES FOR PENN.
Surprise Is Sprung When They Do
Not Go to Harvard.

ROSTON, Mass, July pa blow fell
to Harvard and Yale here yesterday
when it became known that three of
the best schoolboys who ever wore the
Exeter colors on foot ball field had
gone to the University of Pennsylvania
and would play on the Penn freshmen
team in the fall. They are Johnny
Scott, a halfback, who is a wonderful
kicker and a line cracker of extreme
velocity. Scott had a brother. Hutchin-
son Scott, who was Penn fullback. so
there is little surprise that he followed
the footsteps of his brother, but it was
limited that Harvard had landed him.
Austin Lake was a fullback, and one
of the best that Exeter ever turned
out. He is steady player. team
player and wonder at backing up the
line He is a tireless fellow. and in
the last part Of hard game he will
shine as well as he did at the kickoff.
Bull" Lowe is the real surprise for
the Harvard contingent. as he was
slated sure for Harvard" He is an
end, and, according to the Exeter un-
dergraduates, he is the best end in
Exeter's history. He is only nineteen
years old. weighs IT'S pounds and stands
5 feet inches. Few ends in the last
two years have been able to stand his
savage attack. He can get forward
pass like an outflelder at base ball, and
he is the hardest tackler known in New
England foot ball in years.

st. Teresa in the Potomac League
and Agriculture in the Departmental
League now have strong clubs with
which to play out the remainder of the
season in their respective organiza-
tions. Both clubs have been consid-
erably strengthened of late and each
appears to have a chance to land the
title for which it is contending.
St. Teresa went along rather poorly
at the start of the season, not getting
very good pitching and playing only
mediocre ball in other departments.
Within the last few weeks there have
been added to the staff Ed Kelley, for
mer Business High School star. and
Mike Cantwell, rated as one of the
cleverest left-handers in the city.
BUS Hager is doing the catching and
it is very questionable if there is a
better man among the amateur ranks
in Washington. In addition to Bron

others of local repute, Kendall Myers.
star player at Lafayette for the last
three years has been obtained and is
holding down position in center field.
The acquisition of Reds Mccarthy
and Cusack of Georgetown and Derrick
of NJ. A. c. has made Agriculture a
partmental circuit. The Farmers look
strong enough to land the honor this
year, and it is doubtful if there is an
other team in the city with better
players; certainly, with two or three
exceptions. there are no other clubs as
capable. Larry Eidsness. captain of
the Agriculture nine, thinks his team

IL know we dropped the championship
last year after we practically had it

win out in this series and I think we
have stronger club than Interior,
which we will have to meet in the final
series for the league championship. We

CLEVELAND, July 20.-What is be-
lieved to be world record IN base
stealing in the major leagues was ac-
complished by the Nationals in the
first inning of yesterdays game, when
they pilfered eight bases. Moeller got
three of these, stealing second, third
and home. Milan got two, stealing sec
ond and third. while Ainsmith also stole
second and home. going to third. after
stealing second, on O'Neills poor
throw, while Mcbride also got one.
This is most remarkable perform
ance. and is sure to go down among
the freak accomplishments which are
recorded in the games history.
Walter Johnson, for the first time
in many weeks. had a very easy game
on his hands. Before he had pitched a
ball his teammates had gathered six
runs and. of course, under such condi-
tons Walter just goes through the
effective and was not scored on in the
Six innings he worked. This leaves
johnson available for the opening
game in Detroit. if Griffith decides to
emergency he might be called upon to-
morrow to save Jim Shaw from defeat.
but that is not likely, for Jim appears
to be in good enough form to be able
to take care of himself.
1t has been some time since the Ma
tionals have been able to win six
games in row. The team is winning
simply because it is playing ball of
superior caliber to that of it's oppo-
nents
Chick Gandil had marka BILE record
at the bat in yesterdays game. In the
opening inning he tripled and virtually
assured his team a victory and he du-
plicated this drive in the seventh and
also made a single and double
Everything the Cleveland twirlers serv-
ed seemed to be just to Gandils liking
and he did not lose any time in fat
tening his batting average.
Old Nick Altrock for the first time
this year broke into a ball game. He
was. of course, hit hard. but he had the
distinction of striking out two of the
Indians during the short period he
worked. Nick has been asking Griffith
to give him a chance and Griffith did
this after he had strangle hold on the
game.
Jim Shaw is slated to do the twirling
today. Jim spent Sunday at his home
in Pittsburgh, and is one of those tic
killed. with the good showing the Ma
tssnals have been making of late. He
hopes to add another victory to the
string and make it a clean sweep over
Cleveland.
Manager Griffith is hopeful that his
team will continue its present pace to

WINS POLO CUP.
Point Judith Team Captures the
Blizzard Trophies.

NEW YORK. July 20-By defeating
Cooperstown yesterday on the Rock
away Hunting Club field at Cedar
hurst, L. l.. IL goals to Z, the Point
Judith Freebooters became possessors
of the Blizzard polo cups. 1t was the
final match for these trophies. Each
team carried sixteen goals, SO the
game was played on the fiat. The Biz
card cups are among the oldest tro-
phies placed in competition by tire
Rockaway Hunting Club. and there is
always a large attendance of mem
bers and their friends to see these
matches. Yesterday was no exception,
the clubhouse and sideboards being
crowded with polo enthusiasts
With Devereux Milburn at back and
the two Belmont brothers at Nos. 2 and
3. the Freebooters presented a par
ticularly strong team. and their VIC
tory was fairly easy one. w. A.
Hazard, jr.. who was at No. /, was
kept well fed, and he made a number
of goals, some from. difficult angles.
The Freebooters scored twice in the
opening period, while Beadleston tai
lied for Cooperstown. Each side count
ed in the second session. but the Free
half time the score stood 6 to goals
iii their favor. Thereafter Point
Judith made runaway match of it,
The Cooperstown representatives did
their best work in the sixth period,

for the final contests and within the
next week, it is expected, a title win
ner will have been declared. The Ma
rines were victors in the first half OF
with five wins and three defeats. The
Marines will meet the winner of this
series in a final series to determine
which club will play in the post-season
games.
Only one game was played in the
amateur leagues yesterday, that taking
place in the morning circuit of the
Railroad Y. NJ. c. A. Transportation
won from Car Department in the open
ing contest of the second series. the
score being 10 to 5. The fielding of
the two clubs was of about the same
standard, but the Transportation team
did more timely and effective batting.
Trotter, McAleer and Stivers were the
stars at bat for Transportation, each
making three hits.
The Potomac Boat Club regatta has
been postponed two weeks. This has
been done in order to allow the Poto-
macs to enter crews in a meet to be
held by the Arundels of Baltimore on
the same date. The Potomacs had in
tended to hold their events July 81. but
they have been moved forward to two
weeks from that date.
The Potomacs are planning to hold
their annual excursion to Marshall Hall
August "a in order to raise funds to
defray the expenses of the trip to the
middle states regatta Labor day. The
club is to be we'll represented at Phila-
delphia in this annual event.
report is current that Claude r.
Zappone will be in charge of the Poto-
mac crews. The Potomacs had a brief
but sad experience last season with
the method of going out and hiring a
high-priced instructor for few weeks
and that policy has been abandoned. 1t
seems to be the belief that a man who
has had the wide range among oarsmen
for many years that has Mr. Zappone
will be able to get better results than
one not familiar with local conditions
and without knowledge of the indi-
viduals over whom he will be placed.
The Agriculture team is booked to ap-
pear in exhibition games at Clarendon
Saturday and Sunday. The one of Sat
urday will be for the benefit of the
Children's Home at Bancroft, and the
Sunday contest is to be for the benefit
of Outf1elder Pee, who was injured in

Then we are home for long stay,

whole lot of winning and gain on these
teams which are now leading u.s."
The Griffmen expected tough game
yesterday. Hagerman has been doing
the best work of any of the Indian
tw1rlers. and it was figured he would
be troublesome enough to make Walter
Johnson extend himself to the fullest
in order to beat him. But Hagerman
have encountered in some time. for the
game was virtually over before the
first inning had been completed.
Booth Hopper. who pitched his first
game for Minneapolis Sunday, won it
by score of 1 to 0. allowing only Ave
scattered hits. Hopper was suffering
with lame arm while with the Ma
tIonals. and he must have been greatly
benefited by the climatic change ne
encountered.
Catcher Gaharety of the Minneapolis
team undoubtedly will be added to the
Nationals staff this fall. The young
ster has proved himself a most prom
islng player, being natural hitter and
fast on his feet. Though not finished
man behind the plate, that can be
taught him in due time.
Grln1th had kahoe with the Min
neapolis club for an entire week, and
he came here yesterday morning to
make his report. Kahoe contends that
Gaharety is ripe to be developed in
fast company, and he says that Morley
Jennings, the Millers' shortstop, is by
t lar 'he pest shortstop in the associa-
tlon. He stands head and shoulders
over all his rivals. and also is hitting
exceptionally well. Jennings probably

In the way of players from the Wash
ington club. he has a winning team
now, and one which is very apt to win
the flag. Minneapolis is wild over it's
team because it is an entirely new ag-
gregation, and only Jimmy Williams
and Altizer are retained of the veter-
ans, and they are used for utility work
exclusively. The Minneapolis club is
pidyiHs 10 more people TO date than 1t
ever has in its history, and the chances
are that the Cantillons will be among
the few minor league club owners to
profit financially this season.
Harry Harper. the southpaw who has
been at Minneapolis for more than six
weeks, put in an appearance here yes
terday. Harper appears to have filled
out a good deal, and is confident he can
make good with the Nationals, now that
he has acquired control of the ball. He
says Holland and Morley Jennings are
playing by far the best ball at short
and second in the association.
