Special Correspondence Every Evening
Newark. Sept. 29.---For more than
an hour yesterday afternoon. Coach
Derby put the University of Delaware
Varsity and scrubs through driv-
ing scrimmage. The scrubs used
Muhlenburg plays when they had the
ball. and the Varsity was coached In
how to stop those plays
One OF the outstanding features OF
the scrim,nage was the great work
of McKelvey. freshman tackle. Nc
Keivey was in almost every play and
his tackling was deadly. From the
showing made by McKeivey he is
likely 10 make Captain Holton and
Repp, the Varsity tackles Of last year
hustle to hold their jobs before the
season is over. Repp. who has been
out of tho scrlmmages since the squad
returned from College Park, was in
the play yesterday and went through
the entire scrimmage.
Coach Derby has two sets OF back
field men who look good. Quarter
back looks to be the weakest spot in
the backfleld, but both Johnny Schaef-
fer and Magee are showing improve
ment every day. In the scrimmage
yesterday Magee. Jackson, Ivory and
Williams were used in the Varsity
backfield, and Schaeffer, Mcdonald,
Rothrock and, Naughton on the
scrubs.
| The work of Mcdonald and Jack
son stood out. II was the first time
that Mcdonald has been in a scrim-
mage and he looks even better than
he was last year. For one thing he
is in better physical shape. Jackson
drove through the scrubs in a way that
pleased Coach Derby. Joe" Rothrock
Ia another man who looks good in the
lbackfield. Until this year Rothrock
has been used at end. but the backfield

CAMBRIDGE HOPES TO
GET FRANK BAKER

Cambridge, Md. Sept. 29.-At a
meeting OF subscribers TO the fund to
put a baseball team in the field here

II is the desire of those backing the
team TO join an Eastern Shore League
and to become a part of the system
of organized ball in order to protect
this and other clubs from exorbitant
salaries or contract jumping, one
team lifting another's players and
other evils of the independent sys-
tenn.
IL Is thought that Frank Baker may
be secured TO manage the team and
play third base. a position he filed
here IA years ago. Baker could and
would continue TO live at <Trappe.
where he has many interests, but
would motor here and to other points
for the games.

CRUCIAL SERIES STARTS
IN REMNANT RACES

races for the pennants in either
the American or the National
League. for all the contenders
were idle.
Today will see the start Of

its three-ganne set with the
Athletics, while Cleveland plays
the Chicago White Sox. If New
York wins three games. they
can clinch the pennant, even if

four from the sox. Should New
York lose two and Cleveland win
four, the Indians would retain
their championship.

League, opens its final series
with the st. Louis Cards. while
the Giants are idle. New York
must win two games TO clinch
the flag, while If Pittsburg lost
one TO the Cards out Of the FIVE
