blue And White
TO CLASH WITH
COYOTE eleven
University of South Dakota to
Present Strongest Team
Creighton Has Ever
Opened With.

When the University of South Da-
kota foot ball eleven faces Tommy
Mills Creighton squad on Creigh-
ton field at 5 o'clock Saturday after
noon the Blue and White team will
meet the strongest aggregation it
has ever opened a season with.
The Coyote squad has always been
Tartar for Creighton, but in re-
cent years the locals have conquered
persistently by narrow margins.
The 1919 representatives of the
South Dakota school are heralded
as the fastest team gathered under
the red and white colors in the last
six years.
Stories of their prowess have long
since reached Creighton ears. Every
man on the team blames those sto-
ries for the strenuous drilling Mills
has subjected his team to this week.
The personnel of the Blue and
White squad that will open the game
Saturday is still in doubt.
Only a few on the team are GER
tain of their positions. Creighton
followers point to Eddie Mullhol-
land, the brilliant halfback of former
seasons as the left halfback without
doubt.
Gene Leahy will take his place
at fullback when the whistle blows
to set off the season. The other
halfback position is mooted. Tank"
Manley, Roy Moonan, Frank Lucas,
Cliff Long or any one of half
dozen other backfield men may be
seen at right half for the initial con-
test.
Either Mickey" Harmon, Cliff
Long or Mike Driscoll will take
the pilot position.
No one, not even Mills, knows
whether Broz or Bentlage will play
at center or who of a dozen ends
will win the two end positions. Ole
Paulsen and Bill Nemzek are both
sure of tackle positions. Cavanaugh
and Healy will probably play guards.
Creighton fans are confident that
Mills has the greatest team the
Catholics have had in years, but they
also feel that to lock horns with a
team like the Coyotes without even
the semblance of practice game to
expose their weaknesses is taking on
a real task.

Jack Lewis, promoter of the

which will be held at the Auditorium

Jacks wrestlers threaten to 60 on a
strike. .-
Ernie Holmes, we'll known local

For two weeks Londos and Mark

a referee for the match. Then Lewis
stepped in, took the bull by the
horns and announced that Ernie
Holmes would be the referee by his
own appointment. He informed the
wrestlers they could take il or leave
it and that no matter how much they
roared Holmes was going to be the
third man in the ring.
But Londos and Slattery took
Lewis by surprise; each agreed to
Holmes and complimented Lewis
for his selection.
Then Ernie threw a monkey
wrench into the machinery by re-
fusing to accept the job. Ernie ex-
planned that he was taking three

So long as the blood re-

SIDELIGHTS ON
GAME.

Cincinnati, O., Oct. S.-The Sox
and Reds returned to Chicago,
where the eighth game of the series
is scheduled for Thursday. The
ninth game, if necessary, will be
played in Cincinnati Friday.
Catcher Wingo of the Reds had a
batting average of 1000. He walked
three times and in the ninth poled
single to right.
Loyal supporters OF the Reds
thought Manager Moran made a
mistake in not starting Luque, the
Cuban pitcher, instead of Sallee. The
Cuban pitched the last three innings
and held the SoxI to one hit. He
famed FIVE.
Groh's double in the sixth ordi-
narily would have gone for home
run, but ground rules limited him to
two bases. The ball sailed over
Jackson's head and landed under the
left field bleachers. Groh scored a
minute later with the Reds only run
when Duncan singled to center.
There was an appalling falling off
in attendance as compared with the
crowd of $4,000 that witnessed Tues
days game. The S. box seats were
not third filled. There were gap
ping holes in the grandstand section,
and the left field bleachers did not
contain more than 200 spectators.
The right field bleachers, however,
were nearly filled.
Scalpers who bought tickets ex-
pecting there would be good de-
mand for them lost heavily.
Manager Moran of the Reds
switched to the third base coaching
line at the start of the eighth, hoping
that his change from first base
would bring change of luck to the
Reds.

ulated patches even in the grand
stands. Usually the official attend
ance figures are ready during the
game, but half hour after the last
out today none was at hand and il
was announced they would not be
ready for an hour. Just what went
wrong was not stated, but it was
not because the crowd came too fast
to be counted.
A stiff wind was blowing from
center across the plate during the
struggle. When the Sox came on
the field the band, which on the Red
grounds always has some little MT
steal sarcasm at hand, played "She
May Have Seen Better Days" and
Please Go Way and Let Me
Sleep"
Retaliate Without Delay.
This did not impair the buoyancy
OF the slandered athletes, who re-
taliated without delay by putting a
run over in the first inning. 1t was
John Collins, first batter up, who
made the count. He singled to CEN
d ter and went to second on a sacri-
fee by Ed. Collins. Weaver slammed
the ball against the wind for an out
to center, but Joe Jackson, who was
desperate at having found no new
lucky omens in the way of hairpins,
singled to left, scoring ]. Collins.
Happy Felsch also delivered a
single, on which Jackson took sec
ond, but Felsch was forced at sec
ond by Gandil's bounder. ending the
assault for the moment.
In their half the home team took
heart when Ed. Collins juggled
Rath's sizzling grounder. The
crowd, which was less vociferous
than usual, yelled for the aviator
to come and meet the Sox going
up, but it was vain prayer, for
Collins redeemed himself by going
way back and taking Daubert's fly.
The mighty Groh struck out, and
Roush hit to Collins, who threw to
Weaver, forcing Rath.
Soon Bowled Over.
In the second the Sox were
bowled over in short order, without
getting a man to first. The Reds
did a little better, for after Dun.
can had flied out to center, Kopf
singled, but was caught stealing on
Schalk's perfect throw. Neale fouled
out to Weaver. 1t was not until
the fifth inning that Cincinnati, by
virtue of a single and base on
balls, got a man safely to second.
The Sox, however. got another run

making the count.

that which followed by Rath were
costly. Jackson drove bounder
to the Red second baseman, who
made a straight tumble of it and
the bases were filled. In this excit.
ing crisis Felsch, who is frequently
called upon to sacrifice, was or
dered to hit. He singled to center
and Ed Collins and Weaver scored.
Gandil relieved the strain on the
Reds by going out, Fisher to Dau-
bert.
In their half of this round Gin
cinnati contrived to get man on
second for the first time. Kopf
the first man at the plate, flied out
to Jackson. Neale singled and
walked to second when Wingo was
given walk. Wingo became quite
a pedestrian during the contest, as
he was given free passage three
times and he attained Batting av-
erage of 1000 by delivering a hit
in the ninth. Confronted for the
first time with men on first and sec
ond, Cicotte frightened. Ruether
made a brief appearance as a pinch
hitter for Fisher and fouled out to
Weaver. Rath shot a grounder al
Weaver. and with Brown out at first.
One Tally in Sixth.
The sixth inning produced the one
lone tally accumulated by the Reds.
Daubert struck out, but Groh, smart
ing in self accusation because of his
recent record of error, whaled the
bali over the temporary fence in
left, but because of ground rules,
what would have been a triple or a
homer went for double. Cicotte
threw Roush out at first. Groh 60
ing to third. Duncan singled to
center and Groh scored. Duncan
was forced at second by Kopf's
grounder.
In their half of this round ]. Col
Inns doubled after two were down,
but the Cuban Luque, now pitching
for Cincinnati, struck out Captain
Collins and the chance went glim-
mering. The Cuban in the seventh
famed Weaver and Felsch, while
Jackson died on an infeld smash.
In the eighth and ninth the Cuban
pitched splendid ball, striking out
Cicotte and retiring the batsmen,
one-two-three, with little apparent
effort.
Cicotte was not menaced again
until the ninth. Kopf and Neale had
been retired on flies, when Wingo
singled to right. Sherwood Magee
batted for Luque and also singled.
If Rath, the next batter, could have
poled out home run, it would have
tied the score, but his attempt in
this line went no farther than
Fe1sch's mitt.
1t was not until the crowd had
worked its way from the grounds
back to town that it learned how
small the attendance really was,
namely 1882, which is less than
half the average attendance at pre-
vious games here, and 10000 under
the Chicago average.
Filler Likely to Pitch.
"Hod" Filler, who held the White
Sox to three hits in the fifth game OF
the world series at Chicago Monday,
establishing series strike-out rec
ord of six in a row, probably will
face the Sox in the eighth game of
the series scheduled for Chicago to-
morrow.
Lefty Williams, although twice
beaten by the Reds, is expected to
be Manager Gleason's choice.
