THERE'S NO JOSHBOUT CARPENTER FROG ALL LEAF
CALL OFF SERIES
Nativity Bridesbura Baseball Game
Ends In an Argument

It required many months to bring the
Nativity baseball team, Of Port Rich
mond, and the Bridesburg club together
on the diamond, and after arranging a
series for the championship Of the north
east they battled yesterday afternoon
for the first time at Richmond and
Orthodox streets.
A crowd estimated at about 10000
surrounded the field, and Bridesburg
was leading, after hard fight. at the
start of the ninth. In that session
Nativity opened with Lefty" Nolan
going out, and then Bill Black singled
to right. Joe Toner came through with
a long hit to center, and Black crossed
the plate with the tying run.
An argument followed, during which
the crowd swarmed over the field and
further play was impossible. Brides
burg claimed that Toner'S hit to center
was only a double on ground rules, and
hot argument between the rival man :
ayers ensued. Bridesburg then refused
to play Nativity any other games unless
on the Phillies' or Athletics field, and
after considering the matter last night
Nativity has decided to call the series
off.

still can add number Of yards to his
kicks by constant practice, so George
Brooke is trying to help out. Yester-
day, under the tutelage Of the ex Red
and Blue coach, Whitehill was averag-
ing just over 80 yards. Several of his
spirals were 55 yards plus. and he was
getting good height to all his kicks.
Coach Heisman believes there is still
room for a lot Of improvement in the
open field tackling of his men. 80 he
had them back at the tackling dummies
yesterday. He and Hunter Scarlet put
them through long siege of hurling
and the tackling in the scrimmage later
indicated that this practice in defensive
fundamentals had done much good.
Hopper Working Hard
Although Captain Bud Hopper has
been out every day this week, 1t was
not until yesterday that he took his
arm out of the sling and began to lin
Der it up. In the drilling of the ends
by DR.. Scarlet, Hopper took an
active part. He didn't do any tackling,
but he took his turn sprinting down
under the punts and driving the receiver
in. -
With the exception of his injured
arm, Bud is in good shape. He has
been doing lot of leg work during the
last three days, and when DR.. Light
says that his arm Is ready he will be
ready In every respect.
As there is no chance Of Bud Hop
per's getting into the Lafayette game,
the coaches have been working on
Grave. Crawford and Gruenawalt for
the wing positions. Calder also may be
put in again at one Of the ends. al
though he was working out in the back
field during the signal drill.
One of the varsity teams scrimmaged
against the scrubs and made couple
of touchdowns. This team had the
four famous "pony" backs, Miller.
Wray, Harvey and Straus carrying the
ball.
WOijert Is Out
Johnny Budd, the husky youth who
gained fame while performing for by"
Dickson's League Island marines. will
be in the Lafayette College lineup
when the Easton team meets Pennsyl-
vania.
This far this season Budd has been
playing as an understudy to CHUCK"
Last Saturday. however, Wolbert's arm
became infected while playing Annapolis
and he will be out of togs for at least
two weeks. Wolbert is senior at
Lafayette. This will be the first time
in four years that he has not played
against Pennsylvania.
Coach Sutherland may also make an
other change in the Lafayette forward
line. He is not satisfied with the play
ing of Mickey" Hummel and O'Con-
nell, his two wingmen.

Red and Blue Going at Top
Speed to Meet Easton's
ColIegians on Saturday
at Franklin Field
HOPPER IN TOGS
BY SPICK HALL

u,HE witches told Macbeth that he
l. would never be slain until Birnam
Wood should 90 to Dunsinane. There
was some camoufage about It, but Bir-
nam Wood went to Dunsinane just the
same and Macbeth went South. This
bit of restlessness on the part of Scot
fish geography will be paralleled, or
comes to Philadelphia. Yes, Easton is
to 20 South. The upstaters have just
ordered an additional COO tickets for the
game between Lafayette and the Uni
yersity of Pennsylvania. And they had
previously bought several thousand.
This migratory movement of the
Eastonians is due to an intense belief
that the Maroon eleven is going to take
a large fall out of Coach Heisman' s
athletes. They are coming down
loaded, not as in the old moist days,
but for bear, as Won Oil says.
Temporary Seats
In order to accommodate all Of these
Lafayette rooters and the home GUS
toners, it has been necessary, even at
this early stage of the season, to erect
a lot of temporary seats. Yesterday
squads of workmen began bringing out
the circus seats, which will be placed
over the running track in front of the
stands on the east, north and south
sides of the arena. Even then it is
doubtful IL the crowd can be accommo-
dated.
Never since Pennsylvania and Lafay-
etc have been meeting on the gridiron
has there been such a demand for seats,
which proves the popularity of football
in Philadelphia is increasing far faster
than the facilities for accommodating
the fans. The need Of big stadium is
being felt more keenly each week and 1t
is unfortunate that when the big games
come along thousands will have to be
turned away.
Those in charge of the Franklin Field
ARRANGEMENTS are doing everything they
can to have all the friends of football
get seats, but after they have put up
their temporary stands they are
through, nothing more can be done.
The early birds will get the seats.
Coaches Are Busy
Pennsylvania coaches are having
busy days these afternoons trying to
whip the team into shape for the
Lafayette struggle. Yesterday besides
Coach Heisman there were BY Dickson,
Hunter Scarlet, Carl Williams, George
Brooke, Buck Wharton and Kid Klein.

say nothing of Jack Keough, who had

Kicking in Game Against
Middies on Saturday

Lewisburg. Pa. Oct. 14.--With the
Navy game but two days off. frantic
effort Is being made to have the team
at the top of its stride for this con
test. The first forty five minutes of
yesterdays practice was spent polish
ing off individual performers.
Bowser, on kick offs and placements,
is booting the ball with an accurdcy
and distance which insure to Bucknell
the advantage in this department. Cap
tain Kostos is getting off his punts
in good form.
Mangan. Gdaniec and Dayhoff are
receiving the punts and show great
improvement in the way they are re-
turning them. The passers and the
ends are perfecting their operation OF
the aerial attack.
A short dummy scrimmage loosened
up the first and second teams. Then
they were pitted against each other in
scrimmage. The second string men
played well on the defensive, although
they could not prevent the regulars
from driving through for three tallies.

 Fathers Strange Story.
 Born in the province of Westphalia, Germany, William Koss the father, said he had spent three years in the army. The major of his battalion was~the former kaiser, then Prince William. The day following his mar riage he sailed for the United States and, in 1888, settled on the eastern shore of Green river. Eleven chil- dren were born.
 Ross said the mother was i'll, nerv- ous and irritable during the last eight or nine years of her life This caused her to pass the two small boys on to the care of the others very often. Each member of the family, he said, apparently preferred his or her own solitude, and the two boys, Herbert and Ernest, were left to the care of their deaf mute sister
