First Practice For
Tech Football Team

Tech Highs football eleven was
given its first taste of scrimmaging
yesterday afternoon when Coach
Smith pitted the reserves against the
Varsity team. While the work was
of light nature, the eleven had a
chance to try out several new for
nations, and the players were placed
in opposing positions to each other.
Heagy, Hinkle, Ferd Beck, Aldinger.
Craig, Connor, Garrett, Hoerner.
Bohlen and Boyer were on the Sec
ond team, and the regular string was
given the pigskin for offensive work.
Fat" Lauster was not on the field
nor did he report to school, follow
ing the spraining of his right ankle
on the previous evening. 1t is prac-
tically his first injury in three years
as member of the Maroon eleven.
The first contest will be played two
weeks from Saturday when Mount
Carmel will be played. Because of
the increased cost of equipment and
greater car fare to be paid to visiting
teams. it would not be surprising to
see the Tech management compelled
to add a slight increase to the ad-
mission to the contests to the Island.
Added to the high cost, is the war
tax that will have to be recFoned
with this season.

BOSTON WINS BASEBALL TECH ALUMNI BY SCI
Uncle Sam Will See That
Crippled Soldiers Have Sports

I Only recently Louis Martucci. a one.

showed what a cripple with superior
morale can accomplish. Two year:
ago Dartmouth College had a one.
armed guard who was a terror t,
opposing teams-Neeiy by name.
But perhaps the most interesting
| of disabled men in sports to-day is
Lieutenant Frank Sutton. who lost
his right arm at Gallipoli, whereby
| hangs a thrilling narrative.
During that campaign which cost
the British so many lives there wa:
hand-tossing grenade contest be-
tween the Turks and the British
These grenades have time fuses and

he hurled his grenade and the lieu
tenant missed it
Realizing that any moment it would
explode and kill a number of men
nearby be pushed il or tried to push
it into the ground with his right arm.
A moment later he knew he was out
of the trekch. but he had no idea
his right got out. He saw a Turk
coming and reached for his revolver
with his right hand and only then
was he aware that he no longer had
a right hand. But that did not stop
him and with his left hand he killed
his Turk. And he fought on till dusk
and when they got him back to the
hospital they had no anesthetics, so
three men sat on him while they re-
moved what was left of his right arm
below the elbow.
He is a big. handsome chap and ex-
tremely popular. He is an expert
,on ordnance and he has several pat
ents on large and small guns that are
being used by the Allied forces. And
what is more he is anxious to get
back into action against the Huns.
Before the big war he was a plus
. man at Walton Heath, one of the
famous courses near London. Since
he has been in this country he has
taken up the game again and, unlike
others who have lost their right hand,
he still plays the same style that he
did when he had both hands, except
that of course. the left hand only is
used. He does not u.s. any artificial
contraption for the right arm.
He has been on the green of the
eighteenth a number of times in two
shots. and that is no mean feat for
a man with two good hands. and he
has frequently made fours on that
hole. He has driven the long fifth
hole a number of times, and there the
carry is about 100 yards. And he
plays the course anywhere from 80
to 100 strokes. and he has been
around Huntingdon Valley in Sc. OF
course, his greatest difficulty is with
the bunker shots, for it is not an
easy matter to get under the ball
and through the heavy sand at Pine
Valley.

Jennings Co. to Make
Flannel Shirts For Army

The Jennings Manufacturing Com
pany which recently completed for
the government a contract for nifty
thousand bed sacks, has just been
awarded a large contract for uniform
flannel shirts for army use in France,
on which work will be started in a
few days, and which will offer en-
ployment to fifty experienced shirt
operators. The size of future con-
tracts is limited only the number of
operators obtained. The opportunity
offered to women who have at some
time or other worked on shirts pres
ents ideal working conditions, with
good pay, and the performance of a
patriotic duty that a large number
of shirts may be delivered in the
shortest possible time. Additional
machines will he set up as needed.
The work will be done in the large
new building of the Jennings Manu-
featuring Company on North Fourth
street.

Third Major League,
Predicts Bill PheIan

Instead of waning, baseball is
to develop in this country, main
tains Billy Phelan, one of the
Nestors of diamond lore. 1t is al
most certain. predicts he, that
there VIII be a third major league
and it will not be any outlaw
organization. either.
New and changed conditions
/. will force the creation of the third
major body; it will be upheld and
fostered by the magnates, and it
will take its place with the Ma
tional and American, unchal-
ienged. Such leaders as August
Hermann and Charles Comis-
key are beginning to see the hand
writing on the wall, and even
Ban Johnson has lately been con-
vinced that the third league is
bound to come.
Several conditions will con-
tribute to the rising of the new
league. The great increase in
population in some cities that
/ now have Glass AA baseball is
one thing. Another contributing
cause will be the growth in the
number of fans caused by the re-
turn of soldiers. Myriads of
young fellows, who heretofore had
not cared much for baseball, have
become devoted adherents, and
these lads will demand first class
entertainment when they come
home.
Cleveland has grown to such
size that it can easily support two
clubs. So has Detroit, while Bal
timore. Indianapolis, Minneapolis,
Kansas City and Toronto now
have the needed stock of fans.
Be it remembered, also, that there
will be large flock of star players
on hand when the boys get home.
Despite the tribulations of the
current year. the various clubs
illed their ranks and developed
many new stars. When the fel-
lows now in service return there
will be far too many players for
two leagues and a third league
7an be equipped with excellent

Being a cripple does not neces-
sar'ly mean that one cannot take part
in nearly all sorts of play. In a few
months America will TEEN with great
reconstruction hospitals and the gov
ernment announces that in addition
to teaching the victims useful trades
and occupations they will have every
opportunity to engage in lively
sports.
In these days the loss of an arm,
or even a leg, is not necessarily an
impossible handicap to a man in the
world of sport. There are armless
runners and one-legged riders and
tennis players, handless billiard play
ers, apd what not. Furthermore, the
future will likely see large increase
in the number of manned young men
on the athletic field. The same spirit
which enables the blind workers to
carry on" is in the young fellows
who go out to compete on the athletic
field in spite of handicaps supposed
ly too great to be overcome.
There are many cases of boys who
have lost an arm or a leg. but have
retained the spirit of competition
necessary to carry them along to vic
tory. Eddie Carroll, a Long Island
City schoolboy, is one. This lad lost
ah arm when he was a child, but he
can hurdle and jump with the best
of the schoolboys, and actually won
his Junior National championship in
the running broad jump. with leap
of verys close to % feet.
Out in st. Louis they have a one
legged bicycle rider who has won
several big road races. Walden Mar
tin is his name. and he was formerly
one of the best amateurs in the Mid
n ipi franl<
made one of his legs useless. instead
of sitting home and moaning at his
luck, Martin had a special wheel con-
structed, with the left pedal held sta
tionery. With his right he propels
his machine. At first his friends
though he was joking when he told
thought he was Joking when he told
but he showed them he was not by
going out and accepting limit hand
leap.
His early racing with one leg was
not very successful, but as his leg
grew stronger his speed increased.
and his friends were utterly amazed
one day when he swept over the line
a winner of a handicap race. Since
that time Martin has twice won the
Fairgrounds road race, which is the
blue ribbon cycling classic in st.
Louis
Handles" George Sutton is an
other case of an athlete doing the
impossible. This remarkable man did
not lose heart when both of his hands
were cut off at the wrist. In spite
of his affection sutton is known as
one of the greatest balkline players
in the country. He can make the
most difficult shots with precision
that is positively uncanny. 1t is
simply another case of the spirit to
do things in spite of his terrible,
handicap that has made sutton one
of the athletic wonders of the age.

Boston Wins Worlds Series
Beating Chicago Nationals 2-l

lowed a base on balls to Paskert
drove only one run over the plate in
stead of two. Neither side could
score after this inning, Mays holding
the Cubs hitless for five innings.
While the three gathered by the Red
SoX off Tyler proved nonproductive.
A crowd of about $4,000 was "in
at the death" of the great national
pastime. Heavy overcoats. and furs
were much in evidence. The strong
wind that blew off the hay sent shiv-
ers trickling down the spines of even
the warmest-hearted rooter. The strike
of the ballplayers on the previous
day had it's effect on the attendance
and Bostons baseball public failed to
turn out as 1t did on the two previous
days. During the morning the play
ers' strike committee held confer
ence with the owners of the Boston
and Chicago clubs, but If they came
to any agreement that will add to the
winners and losers share of the prize
money no official announcement was
made of it. President Weeghman
said: "The players were very fair in
their demands" The players said:
THE owners have promised to talk
things over again at the park this
afternoons" And President Frazee,
of the SoX, said later: mo agree
ment has been reached. We have
promised nothing to the players. Why
should we?" 1t was understood.

to make a present" to their players.
based on the days receipts, and de-
clined to admit this until they had
sized. up the attendance.
1t is possible the players will make
an appeal to the National Commits
sion for a readjustment of finances.
but there is little doubt that it will
result in any change. Organized
baseball is dead for the present, and
before it is given new lease of life
and a place among clean professional
sport the national agreement will
have to be rewritten and the higher
court which has made farce of the
game during the last season reor-
ganized.

Recalling the historic "muff" made

yesterday through very much the
same sort of mishap, the offender be-
ing Outfielder Max Flack: 1t was the
sixth game of the series and by WIN
ming it the Red SoX established a
record of taking i've world cham
pionships. in as many starts.
The defeat was a bitter disappoint-
ment to the Cubs and the Chicago
contingent. The Cubs were confident
of beating Mays and, after tying up
the series, could see nothing but vic
tory in the deciding game tomorrow.

rubber. But Mays proved harder for
them to-day than in the game at
Chicago, and while lucky to win.
he outpitched Tyler. Two of the
three hits made off him came in one
inning and Chicago threw away Its
own chances of at least tying the
score by careless work on the bases.
The muff that placed Max Flack
name on a par with that of Fred
Snodgrass did not affect Tyler's S
pitching. He proved a pitcher with
heart of steel. as well as puzzling
delivery and a clever head by work
ing himself out of the tightest kind
of a position in the very next inning.
and held the SoX to one single during
the rest of the time he occupied the
mound.
Flacks muff came in the third
inning with two out and runners on
second and third. 1t was line drive
from Whitemans bat straight at the
Cub outhelder and two runs trickled
over the plate when the ball theked
out of Flack's mitt and rolled yards
away Whiteman was held on first,
but in trying to take third on an in

pretty relay from Merkle.
