GAME AT COLUMBIA
TO UPSET OTHER TEAMS

New York. Aug. 3O.-Ways and means
FOR carrying on Columbia 5 fall sports on
South Field are causing the athletic au-
thorities on Morningside Heights much
thought. because with the resumption of
football South Field will be occupied al
most exclusively by the varsity eleven,
and there will be no room for any of the
other teams which have used the field in
the fail for practice.
Fall baseball. which was devised to
make up ir a small way for the absence
of football. will be abandoned. and the
interClasS series which has been waged
each autumn will probably be transferred
to the spring. AS to socker football, Co.
lumbia is in a peculiar situation. 1t was
largely because of the insistence of the
Columbia representatives that the Inter-
collegiate Association Football League
moved its championship series from the
spring to the fall Now, with football re-
stored. Columbia finds that South Field
probably will be barred to the socker
players: except at hours which will be
inconvenient for the team
Track athletics also will be out of the
question because of football, and it is
more than probable that the cross-coun-
try team will be forced to do most of its
running over the Van Cortlandt Park
course.

JOHN J. M'DERMOTT
THROUGH With GAME
Two-time Winner of National Title
Says He viii Never Be Com
petitor Again.

Philadelphia. Pa. Aug. 3O-The one
and only Jack McDermott. twice open
golf champion of America and erstwhile
Aronimink caddie. has definitely decided
to retire from active competition.
This statement was made exclusively
to a Washington Herald representative
today
McDermott first came into prominence
in 1909. He was then caddie on the now
abandoned links of the Aronimink Cor
Club. at Forty-ninth street and Chester
avenue. In the open championship of the
Golf Association of Philadelphia that
year. played at the Country Club. Bala,
McDermott finished well up with the
leaders. The following year he tied with
Alec and Macdonald Smith for the ma
tional open title at the Philadelphia
Cricket Club. In the play-off Alec Smith
won.
McDermott first won the American
open championship AT Wheaton in 1911.
after a play-of with Michael J. Brady
and George o. Simpson. He won the
title for the second year in succession. at
Buffalo. in 1872. This was the year he
first went to the British Isles to play il
the open championship at Muirfield. but
his showing was not good.

Philadelphia, Aug. 30.-Instead of

With reference to McInnes. Mack
said: II do not know why McInnes

however. l expected to find McInnes
in Detroit and then in Cleveland and
when he didn't appear in st. Louis

telegraph he wrote me that he would
be on hand for the opening game
here. McInnes. l expect. will have
good explanation for his staying at
home.
Il cannot say much about the new
players at this time"
Mack said the release of Bender
didn't surprise him in the least. as he
understood the Federal League was
releasing all high-priced ball players
and then resigning the player for
lower figure as they did in the case of
Russell Ford some time ago.
There is a lot of good pitching in
the Chief yet" said Connie. Il would
not be surprised if Bender came back
next year and pitched sterling ball for
some club. He has the ability"

JIMMY ESCHON SENDS
HIMSELF TO MINORS

Jimmy Eschon. an outfelder. was on
the roster of the Cleveland Indians when
they were in New York recently. Eschon
looked good. and Manager Fohl had de-
cided to play him regularly after the lat
ter part OF August. But Eschon sent
himself back to the minors through
peculiar twist.
I'm kinda lonesome and homesick.
he told F'ohl. In New York. "and I'd like
to go back home for a few days
Eschons home is in Brooklyn. That's
where Fohl supposed he wanted to go.
And Fohl gave permission.
But Eschon had meant Cleveland-and
back to Cleveland he went. When he ar
rived there the club officials were bit
surprised.
What are you doin here?' they asked.
"Fohl said it was all right for me to
come" answered Eschon.
The officials assumed that because Fohl
had sent back Eschon. that it meant he
didn't need him. An outfielder was need
ed by the Cleveland American Associa-
ton Club, and Eschon was sent to that
club
Where's Eschon?" asked Fohl, when
he got back to Cleveland.
When he was told that Eschon- had
been sent to the minors he was a bit
peeved, but because he had several extra
outfielders he decided to let Eschon stay
where he was.
