zie set the pace last year when he
discarded the old sheds on the alley
back of his office and erected brick
warehouse. This year he extended
on the alley line the full width of his
three lots, replacing with another
brick warehouse, and just the past
few days he has cleaned out all of
the wood structures in the rear of his
office on Willard street and will re-
place a portion of the space with
brick, thus extending his original
brick warehouse 27 feet south. 1t is
understood that Mike Mckinley is to
clean away the wood portions of the

INDIANS NOT so POWERFUL
 ON GRlDIR0N

New York, Sept. 28.-Whats the mat ter with the Carlisle Indians? Follow CTS, of football who asked that ques- ton last season are reiterating it with greater emphasis this year, for the once proud redskins seem~to- be hit ting the downward trail with added velocity. At least, that's the impress sion they have given within the last ten days, during which they had all they could do to beat Albright, and were held to a scoreless tie by little Lebanon Valley.
 It certainly is a great comedown for the Indian school, which in days past humble Harvard and other members of the select intercollegiate football coterie. There must be some reason not on the surface for this remarkable downfall in gridiron prestige. Evident | ly the same Indians who came to Car 1 lis1e in the past are. not attending the Government school now. Or perhaps 1 the% Indian is too busy making money l to develop any more Jim Thorpes, 1 Frank Mount Peasants, Hudsons, Ec- 1 Iendines, Nand Gardners-
 i Glenn Warner must have seen the handwriting on the wall last year when he decided to quit Carlisle and
 accept an offer from the University of
 Pittsburgh, where he is at present
 coaching. Offers fully as fIattering
 came to Warner every year in the l past, but he always refused to listen l to them.
 With Warner gone, Carlisle was this I year handicapped from the start, de spite of the fact that it has two sucf table coahes as George Kelley and Gus We1ch. Kelley, who was practicing law
 when Carlisle called him back, has in dian blood in him, and when at the : Government school played a brilliant fgame. Weleh will be remembered as the brilliant quarterback of 1913 Sand late last season.
 Just where Carlisle really stands wiI be demonstrated when it meets I4e- high next Saturday.

INGRAM CAN'T DO so WELL WITHOUT
 ROBlNSON'S HELP

When Robinson was with the Giants McGraw was accustomed to leading his men to a pennant. And McGraw took all the glory and strut ted about with that pompous great I azn'' attitude, but all the while Wilbur Robinson was working away with the pitchers under the command of Mo Graw, and keeping them in shape, tu- toring them on the weak points of opposing hitters, writes C.. A. Barrett in the Boston Record.
 If you fans will stop to consider it at alIg McGraw has not been able to do so very well ever since Robinson was given "a managerial berth. Last year, Of course, McGraw and his men gave the Braves a right merry battle for first honors at this time last sea son, thefwo teams being in the throes Of a great fight for the leadership of the league.
 IBut last year there were not many changes in the lineup of the Giants, and the men were putting by the tu- torihg that Robinson had given them in years gone by.
 Now the Giants have many new 7 faces in the lineup and the Giants are not in the race for two very good req 4 sons, the first and foremost being that Robinson has not been on deck to whip the youngsters into smooth working big 1eaguers and Manager McGraw has not(b been lucky enough T toA find another Robinson to do part of the managers work for him.

GRANT SEVERELY
 HURT AS RACING AUTOMOBILE BURNS

New York, Sept. 28.-Harry Grant,
 one of the racing automobile drivers,
 while practicing for the Astor Cup
 Bay Speedway yesterday afternoon, was badly burned when the Maxwell car which, he was driving caught fire.
 Grant, pinned in behind the steering wheel, was soon enveloped in flames,
 and both legs were severely burned to the hips before workmen atTthes side of | the track pulled him out of the car. Grant was removed to the Coney Is- land hospital. He will be unable to
 drive in Saturdays race, and the Max we'll racer, while the hood and other metal parts were melted, may be re- paired in time for the contest
 Just before the car caught fire,
 Grant was racing around the course with one of the Stutz cars, driven by Tom Rooney. After a few turns of the track at a clip of 100 miles an hour, the rStutz car went far into the lead
 and Grant dropped back. As he was mounting the high bank at the Sheeps- head Bay end, fro started to shoot from the back of the machine Red Stafford, the mechanician, looked be- hind and saw the trouble, but by this 1 time the racer was shooting up the in cline, and it was impossible. to stop. Stafford applied the emergency brakes and Grant steered the down the ernbankment just sin time to pre- vent it's overturning. Stafford jumped ] from the buring car, but Grant was
 unable to get out. The car was on fire
 in a few seconds, the flames 1eaping
 several feet in the air.
 l The floor of the car was burning
 through and Grant was unable to ex- l tricate his legs from the blaze. As the
 car plunged down to the foot of the embankInent: a dozen workrnen went l to his aid and after getting Grant out of the burning car they put the fire out with sand Eddie Rickenbacher Grants teammate, and Earl CnopeT 1 raced to his aid and he was carried to the hospital in Cooper's Stutz racer. i Grant was the winner of the Wander bilt Cup race in 1919 and 1910. driving

MATTY BALDWIN MEETS CHARLEY WHITE OCT 5.
 BEFORE BOSTON CLUB

Boston, Sept. 2s-Matty Baldwin and Charley White have been match ed to box at the Atlas A. A. October 5.
 Consensus of opinion is that it is a poor match for the faithful and pop uIar New England lightweight cham pion. but Matty himself thinks differ ent.
 In his last contest with William Saylor Matty was either away off form or unable to cope with the awkward but sterling ability of the Hoosier star. Quite a. licking was handed out to him. At that time the fans were glad that it, wasn't White Matty was up against.
 When Say1or held White to a draw decision by beating him here not long ago, many thought that Matty could have done the same had he been given the chance. But Whites decis- | i've defeat of Gilbert Gallant once more brought out his terrible hitting ability and again the fans fear for Matty. Matty has never been laid low for 10 counts by a punch If he should be at this late time of his career, even 1 by such a star as White, it will posi- : lively be the Beginning of the end, if not the end of him. If he has got to step down and out Boston boxing en-
 thusiasts would much rather he. could do so and be able to boast of that
 never knocked out record.

ANNIVERSARIES
 OF RING BATTLES

1811-Tom -Cribb defeated Tom Mo1ineaux in Ii rounds at Thise1ton Gap, England. The victory of Cribb over Molineaux created great sensation as that of Willard over Johnson, for Mo1ineaux was an Amer ican negro, and the first black man to try for the championship. In 8 pre- vious battle the black man had rekally defeated Cribb, although robbed of his victory, and his second try for the title aroused fears in the hearts of the sportsTnen of England that the title would pass to an American and a black man. The stage was pitchedi in a stubbIe field, and 10000 specta- tors, including half the peerage and hundreds of the foremost men of England, gathered to witness the his toric encounter. Mo1ineaux had not trained and was fat and out of condi- ton, while Cribb was in 'in the pink" The negro proved his superiority in the first few rounds, but his lack of condition soon told on him. In the tenth round Cribb landed a blow that broke the blacks jaw, but the plucky negro staggered up again, only to be knocked, out. |. 1901-Matty Matthew defeated Ed Kennedy in, 8 rounds at Toronto.
 1906-Dick Hyland Knocked out Eddie Han1ons fn 18th Sround at San Francisco.

Tn spite of the prevalent honesty of the game, there have been sean daIs in baseball, and it has not a, few skeletons in it's closet. Today marks the semi centenary of the first base ball scandal, for it was on Sept. -28, 1865, that the New York Nfutuals got into the hall of baseball shame. On that day the Mutua1s playedethe Eek lords. The former club was consid- cred the stronger, but greatly to the surprise of> the fans, the Eckfords won by a, score of 29 to Il. There was great rivalry between the teams, and large sume were wagered. Ger tain suspicious circumstances led to an investigation, and it was found that three of the leading players of the Mutuals had sold the game to the gamblers.
 That incident left a bad taste in the mouths of the supporters of the game, and when baseball became a professional institution it vas viewed with great suspicion by many people. The National Association, the parent baseball league, was almost wrecked

Semi Centenary of the
 First Baseball Scandal

The allegations that baseball is crooked which is a favorite conten- tfon of the chronic knockers of the American pastime, has little to SUD- port 1t, despite the utterance attrf- buted to prominent National League player not long ago. The s'root of all eviF' has affected baseball, in. com mon with all human institutions but as a general proposition it may safely be said that no other profession o1, trade is in a position to throw rocks at the players and magnates of the diamond. The attempt to fasten the vice of gambling on baseball, which persists today in the baseball pools nearly wrecked the game in it's in fancy, but the leaders in the pastime have always been wise enough to realize that they must fight this ten dency toothland toenail.

CENTER WHITE IS
 BACK AT YALE TO CONTEST FOR PLACE

New Haven. Conn. Sept. 2s.-The Yale football squad had a snappy practice yesterday. The coaches lined up the varsity men as they started the Maine game and sent them down the field in a fast signal drill. The line men were drilled individually and col 1ectively, the line coaches, Talbot and Osborne, laying considerable emphasis on the mistakes against Maine. -
 The opinion of the coaches was that the showing against Maine was as good as could be expected. but not as good as was indicated by the size of the score, for Maine was weak.
 Carl White, the centre rush of last year, returned yesterday. He will be pited against .'Pie' Way, a guard of two years ago and the veteran base ball pitcher, in the fight for the cen tre position
 The second and>third teams scrim- maged,i ,i-the third team being victori- ous, making two touchdowns and a safety against their opponents, who were held scoreless. Legore played on the second team but failed to star.

 IN FIRST IS
 AT GREEN ICH

New York, Sept 2S.-Although Fran cis Ouimet, former holder of the na- tiona1 amateur and open titles, won the medal in the qualifying round of the annual invitation tournament at the Greenwich Country club yesterday, it was not without a struggle. He tied with Philip V. G. Carter of Nassau, the metropolitan junior champion, with 153, and won the nine hole ptay-om only because Carter missed a putt of less than a, yard.
 Maxwell R. Marston of Baltusrol. the New Jersey champion, led the field at the end of the first IS holes with 76. Oulinet, Garter, Gardiner w. White and Dudley H. Nudge. the last named the winner of the medal in the na- tionaI amateur championship at De- troit,- each had 78.

 by the gamblers, and when the Ma tiona1 League was formed in 1876 the promoters decided to wage con- stant warfare on the gambling eIe- ment. In the second year of the leagues existence, however, scan day developed which, but for the prompt aand drastic action of the magnates, might have been the death of the game.
 The ''crfme of TT" easily takes du- Abious precedence over all other base
 ball scandals. The Louisville club had a good lead, and was considered | a certain winner, when it left on it's last trip to the East toward the close of the 1877 season. The Co1oneIs were in such position that they could, lose half of their remaining games and still cop the flag. The Louisville team began it's eastern in Yasion against Hartford, although the games were played on the Mutual grounds in Brooklyn. Errors of Cra- vers, Ha1I and Nichols caused the Co1oneIs to lose the first contest with l the weak -Hartfords. On the follow
