FRESHMEN DOWN
MAROON VARSITY
Yearlings Spurred On BY Pat Page
Spring Big Surprise at Midway
BY Defeating Stages Eleven.

Chicago, Sept 2S.-"Stagg fears
Purdue" was once Midway cry.
But the new slogan is "Stagg fears
his freshmen"
Yesterday the yearIing crowd gave
the veterans a z to beating and might
have rolled the score up higher if the
arc lights had been installed. The
varsity had put over one touchdown,
Marum going over for a score on a
one yard buck after the regulars had
carried the ball down the field, but
Pershing missed the attempt at goal.
A second time the varsity rushed the
ball down to the goal line, but Ref
cree Stage called a 15-yard penalty
and set the first team back.
From that point the freshman team
started to advance, and, spurred by the
fierce pleadings of Pat Page, literally
tore through the much heavier varsity
wall for a 70-yard march to a touch
down. Rouse and Meyers carried the
ball on a series of short gains and the
former crossed the goal line Then a
former University High lad named
Reber, who is a carbon copy of Craig
Redmon, ex-Maroon lineman, kicked
the goal which gave the freshmen a z
to victory. Hutchinson and Elton
also showed well in the scrimmage for
the 1917 M6H.
All the crippIes of Tuesday were
back in uniform except Hans Norgren,
and he will be on the field by Monday,
Agar, Gordon, Knipschild, Schafer,
and Graham took part in the scrim-
mage. Every man on the varsity squad
was used in the fray, leaving the fans
still uncertain as to the lineup of
Stages eleven.
Fluegal was placed at end the first
day and is about the only man on the
squad who has not been shifted, al
though his experience has been at
center and tackle. Higgins looks like
a coming star at one tackle, and as
Captain Jackson holds the other tackle
position and Fishers seems a fixture at
center, the two guard positions and
one end are the only vacant spots Bre-
los, in spite of his weight, probably
will play the end position. which he
filled in most of the games last year.
Gorgas, Bondzinski, and
Parker are fighting for the two guard
berths.

Columbus. Ohio, Sept. 28.-Out of

moons Columbus grand circuit races,
during which his Napoleon Direct

Perfection taking the fifth heat from
other four with bennington.
Five of the pacing miles OF the af-
ternoon, during which a heavy wind
hindered the horses going away and
also all the way through the last quar-
ter, were in better than 2:02.
The last mile of the free-for-all was
the fastest of the lot, 2.011a. With
Hal Boy beside him, Napoleon Direct

quarters in 1:29A. The winner was
favorite at 500 to $40 over TIE entire

Roam Hal was the first choice Of the
Board of Trade starters, but Miss
Harris M. did not go unbacked. The
Mcdonald mare made the pace in the
first heat, Roam Hal using her as
shield until near the end of the mile.
In each of the next two heats Goldie c.
did the leading until half way through
the home stretch. The finish of the
middle heat was close, Goldie c. being
a neck behind Roam Hal. with her nose

Jim Pitches Winning Ball. But Again

Stopping for the Giants.

New York, Sept IS. - Once more
good pitching was offered up on the
sacrifcial altar of inability TO hit
when the dodgers took the final game
OF the series and season against the
Cubs here yesterday afternoon. This
time the score was TO 0, with Sher-
rod Smith handling the whitewash
brush. although several times it ap-
neared the instrument was going to
slip from his hands.
Jim Vaughn was the hurler whose
swell pitching went for naught. The
Dodgers scored twice upon James, and
when the second run crossed the pan
It was the fourth time in 36 innings in
which Vaughn has OBLIGATED that his
opponents have scored against him.
Vaughn gave five hits, two Of which
were triples, coming in sequence in the
first inning, the big southpaw passed
two, but none OF these figured in the
scoring. On the other hand, the Cubs
made five hits off Smith and the Dodg-
er box man walked three. However,
with all these the Cubs could not score,
simply because on two distinct occas-
ions a base hit wasn't forthcoming.
The first real chance Chicago had to
acquire a run came in the first inning,
when Flack pasted a single to left and
continued to second while Wheat was
trying to get a half-Nelson on the ball
Mann flied to Hi Myers and Safer
drove deep to Stengel, Flack taking
third after the catch Kelly, however,
skied to Myers. Score:
