HOPPE MAKES RUN OF 2SS.
Is in Excellent Form in 1S.2 Ball1line
 Billiard Exhibition Match.

New York, Oct 1S.-Playing an ex- hibition match at 1S.2 balkline bill lizards at the National Recreation acad- emy in Brooklyn last night, Willie Hoppe made run of 2SS points, Win ming the bank, Hoppe launched his big drive. He soon gathered the balls al the lower end of the table and rap idly clicked off the points. His nurs- ing was little short of wonderful. Not more than three times did he drive the first object ball to the upper rail. By clever execution and a pretty dis play of dead ball English he managed to keep the balls together at the low CT end of the table almost throughout.
 When he had finished this end of the table was covered with chalk and powder marks but the cloth at the upper end was almost as clean as when the game started. He had the same delicate stroke working that has always featured his playing when at his best.
 While most of the points were made by draws and easy follows, he execut- ed several difficult masse shots that drew the applause of the big gallery that witnessed the performance ). Vargas, the South American player. was his opponent, but he really play ed the role of spectator. The final score was 400 to IS. Hoppe averaged 66 2-3

PHIL DOUGLAS NOT RESERVED BY GIANTS
Bring Pitchers Name Does Not
 Appear in 1920 List

New York, oct 1S.-John Heydler, president of the National league, yes terday gave out the full list of Ma
 tional league players who have been reserved for the season of 1920. Most of the clubs are recruited up to their full winter limit of thirty-five and the Brooklyn club actually is two over the limit The Dodgers have thirty seven men on their reserve list.
 The club with the smallest reserve
 list is the Pittsburgh aggregation, as
 Barney Dreyfuss has reserved only
 twenty three athletes for next sea
 son. Dreyfuss, however, has six men
 on his voluntary retired list and one
 man suspended.
 The most outstanding feature of
 the reserve list of the Giants is that
 the name of Phil Douglas does not
 appear anywhere, not even as a sus-
 pended player. Whether this was an
 oversight or means that McGraw has
 cut off the big pitcher entirely remains
 to be seen. Douglas names does not
 appear on the New York s.ato.
 Heinie Zimmerman, who had an indefinite suspension plastered on him
 on the last Giant Western trip, evil dently is in good standing again. lie appears on the reguar New York list. Another interesting name on the New York reerve list is Eddie Sicling, the young infielder. McGraw and William Baker, president of the Phillies, had quite spat on the Polo Grounds last summer on the subject of Sick ing. McGraW asserted he only loaned Sicking to the Phillies when Bancroft broke his leg, while Bakers argument was that he got the payer by refus- ing to waive on him and had full title to his services McGraw evidently converted Baker to his point of view. McGraw Not on Reserve List. For the first time in his long career in baseball the name of John McGraW dCeS not appear on a reserve list. In his new capacity as part owner of the Giants McGraw has not considered it 1 necessary to reserve himself. Two other manag gers, Rickey of St. Louis
 and Bezdek of Pittsburgh, also are | unreserved. Hickey is president-man- ager of the Cardinals and therefore his post is similar to that of McGraw The failure of Barney Dreyfuss to 1 reserve Hugo Bezdek is significant. It l rather makes it look as though the l corpulent Hugo is through in Pitts ] burgh. Bezdek was reserved a year l ago, hence there must be some reason ! for his name not appearing on the
 1920 roster.
 1 Rumors were rife all of last season ! that 1919 would see the end of Be- del< as a major league manager. Bar 1 ney Dreyfuss isn't the easiest man in l the world to get along with, and Bez-
 dek's football duties at Penn State re- ! Quire much of his time. Gossip l around the worlds series had Johnny l Evers succeeding Bezdek. Johnny 1 and Barney would get along for about 1 a week. But perhaps Johnny would 1 take the Fred Clarke system Of get ting along With Dreyfuss, namely, to 1 return as good as he got

elaborate service. undoubtedly will
have a payroll at least as large.
New lork's hotel population has
seldom watched the building OF "A
new hotel with the curiosity that has
been shown in the case OF the Penn
sylvania. And the reason probably
is that this hostclry represents n
comparatively new ideal OF public
service. an ideal in which mere mag
nifccnce is incidental rather than the
main thing.
There is no lack OF magnincencc
in the Pennsylvania, but the special
thing striven for In the whole chain
OF hotels under the Statler manage
ment is n superiority OF service. The
target a, which each employee Is
expected to aim is outlined for him
in a little book which says succinctly:
"a hotel has just one thing TO sell.
That one thing is service. The hotel
that sells poor service is a poor ho-
tel. The hotel that sells good service
is a good hotel"
But not all OF service Is included
in the act OF serving and that is
where thousand and one little lux
uries Of equipment, little mechanical
