The veteran players Of the local club
are disguised with the climate conditions
of Charlottesville for training purposes
and to a man are in favor of the change,

would not be at all surprising to see

CHANCE MAY AGAIN
COMMAND THE CUBS

New York, Oct. 15.-According to a
friend who lives in New York, it has been
practically decided that Frank Chance
will manage the Chicago National League
club next season. The former leader OF
the Cubs who gained the sobriquet OF
Peerless Leader with the famous Windy
City aggregation and who later was in
command of the New York Yankees for
two years, has been active this season.
Last spring he purchased an interest
In the Los Angeles Club Of the Pacific
Coast League. Chance showed such fine
reconstructive ability with this Glass IA
club that his team soon became the
sensation of the circuit
Charles Weeghman. president Of the
Cubs, has chosen Pasadena, Cal, as a
training camp for 1917. 1t is said that
the former idol OF the West Side Park,
Chicago, will be in command when the
club reports there. Joe Tinker's contract
expires January l. 1917.

for the only score of the game, from a
team that defeated Harvard a week pre-

VIGILANTS DEFEATED
BY MOHAWK ELEVEN
Costly Fumbles and Forward Heave
Paves Way for South
east Team.

Costly fumbles and inability to halt the
fast charging Mohawk A. c. line paced
the way for the Southeast clubmen hand
ing the worst setback ever administered
locally, to the champion Vigilant Athletic
Club football team. yesterday at Union
League Park, when the Indians landed
a hard-fought battle from the big VS.
by 12-to-0 score.
Coach Bumps" Turner's plucky Indian
eleven out-fought the champions all the
way, although the breaks of the game IN
both penalties and fumbles all went the
Mohawk way.
Inability of the vigilant's backs to
hold on to the pigskin burt their chance
of scoring while the lighter Mowhawk
forwards out-played the Vigilant line
on the defensive and time and again
broke through and nailed the runner for
a loss.
The Indians light back-field were able
to gather but three first downs during
the forty minutes OF play, while the Vigi-
lants were credited with seven.
After kicking to the Vigilants the
Indians held for downs and Blttenbender
kicked to Boyer. who ran back the punt
fifty yards through the entire Vigilant
team for a touchdown. Just before the
end Of the second period the Mohawks
recovered a fumbled ball on the Vigi-
lant's 1S-yard line, and after failing at
line attacks, the ariel route from Scho-
field to McGann tailed the second touch
down.
Twice the Mohawks picked up fumbled
balls and crossed the goal line, but the
tallies were not allowed to count, be-
cause of penalties being called. Not
satisfied with registering their first tally.
the Indians held the Vigilants for downs
F1Ira rkz Q
running with the ball fumbled, and Co.
hill recovered 1t and ran twenty yards for
tally. The ball was brought back be-
cause of the Vigilants not having seven
men on the line of scrimmage.
, In the final period Cohill recovered the
Mohawk's kick. but was brought back
because the ball first touched one his
teammates. The Vigilants only threat
ened the Indians goal line on two oc-
casions. In the third period. with the
help of Palmer. Derby and Mcbride, the
Vigilants marched the ball to the Mo
hawks 4-yard line. where they were pen
allied Is yards for unnecessary rough
ness and held for downs.
Just before time was called. with the
ball on the 12-yard line and yards to go
on the fourth down. the Vigilants tried
the aerial heave, from Oliveri to Koogle,
but the fast little end dropped the ball
just as he crossed the line.
Although Bittenbender. who did the
punting for the Vigilant team, outbooted
Schofield, of the Mohawks, the Indian
ends showed great speed in getting down
under tine ball, and regularly held the
Vigilants' backs to no gains.
This is the first defeat handed the Wig
liant team since the Engineer eleven won
the championship in that memorial mud
battle in 1914. The work OF Burns, Bit
tenbender. DeMarr, Koogle and Mcbride
