CLEVELAND PENNANT
CONTENDER THIS YEAR
His Presence Changes COMPLEXION Of
the Whole American League Race
Loss Heavy to Red Sox.

Chicago. May S.-Tris Speaker has
always been a great drawing ca rd
mere. but he Is much more Of an at
Sracuon this year than he has ever
oeen before. While it has always
Deen claimed for Speaker that he was
mas never had chance to be demon-
strated, as obviously as it is this year.
His presence on the Cleveland team
mas changed the complexion of the
whole American league race. His ab-
sence from the Red Sox lineup means
tnat Bill Carrigan and his team have
Deen brought down to the level of
several other teams in the race and
the presence Of the great player on
the Indians the equal Of any Of the
leaders in the race.
There probably never was a. deal
IN the history Of baseball that hos
mad such influence on the game as the
Speaker deal. The fans OF the whole
country are beginning to realize that
the Boston club made the greatest
mistake OF history in letting a player
OF speakers ability go. The new
owners or the Cleveland team are be-
ing congratulated on their luck in
getting hold Of such a man at the
very outset Of their administration,
The acquisition of Speaker is worth
as much to the owners of the Cleye-
land club as the rest of the goods and
chattels that were secured in the
purchase. The town has been changed
from one with only half-hearted In
terest in the club into a mob Of Wild
ly enthusiastic rooters, who sec a
pennant before their very eyes.
The deal is one Of the best things
that. could happen to the American
league. Last fall the Cleveland club
was a proposition that did not appeal
IN any way to capital. It required
persuasian Of unusual order to get
any one interested at all. When J. C.
Dunn and his associates took over the
club 1t was regarded as venturesome
speculation. Instead of being a spec
ulation, however, the venture has
turned out to be one Of the wisest
investments ever made in baseball
The liberal expenditure Of money in
building up the team has proved that
real business men are in control.

VARSITY OPENS
SEASON.; wins
FROM SCIENCE
Takes Opening Game s to 2
Gill Has Excellent
Team.

baseball team Saturday opened its
season by defeating the Wahpeton
science nine, 8 to 2.
Coach Gill has q bunch Of players
that promise to develop into a fast
team.
Frank Talcott. who pitched his first
varsity game, easily outshown any at
tempts at stellar work by his team
during the time struck out 10 men
and allowed but three hits. Two Of
the hits were Texas leaguers sent over
third base, while the other was q lin
er put to the pitcher which could not
be fielded fast enough for an out.
Moore, who pitched the last three
innings, did not allow anything that
looked like hit until two men were
out in the ninth, but he retired the
side without q score.
Two home runs and one two-bag-
ger were made by the university boys
Campbell and Holt made the circuit
drives ana Captain Mckay landed on
ono for a two bases.
University Scores First.
Tho university scored in the Sec
ond inning, when LAWN hit for sin
gle and Campbell drove one over the
center field fence for trip around
the bases.
Another was counted in the third
when Burton walked and Mckay put
out a two-bagger.
In the fifth two more were made
by the university. Butte, at third for
the scientists. played with one long
enough to let McClintock reach first.
With two men down Holt tore the
cover of the ball for another home
run.
The sixth inning was the only bad
one for the university ball tossers L..
Butte drew a walk, which was follow
ed by three singles, which brought
two runs across the plate.
Errors were chalked up against the
Wahpeton science in an unsightly
manner in the eighth, when. on three
errors, three scores were brought in.
The Wahpeton science team was not
In as good condition as the local play
ers. They put up scrappy game,
however, and their first baseman, Nc
lnere, a redskin. played exceptional
ball.
Following is the detailed score:
