follows

has caused very large proportion OF
second growth material This second
growth, however, is of such a charac-
ter usually as to cause no serious
defect in the potato as far as quality
or keeping quality is concerned, but
Will in many cases cause a serious
Wasteage in the preparation of the
material for cooking purposes If the
growers will meet this situation and
sort out the bad second growth ma
terial. there is no reason why they
could not make a satisfactory cOmbi-
nation grade under the Washington
Combination Grade title that will be
entirely satisfactory to the con-
sumers. and still make it possible for
them to market the best of their crop.
The small potatoes and those dis
tinctly Objectionable because of sec
ond growth can be used for feeding
of livestock on the farm to a very
much better advantage than they can
possibly be marketed this year.

ORIOLES AND SAINTS TO
USE SOUTHPAWS TODAY

BALTIMORE, Md. Oct. 5.-Fans
anticipated a southpaw duel in to-
days game between St. Paul and
Baltimore, the second contest of the
little world series. Jack Dunn
planned on sending Lefty Groves to
the mound and Mike Kelley had
groomed the veteran Rube Benton
for the job.
The rival baseball managers have
their fighting Irish up now. This
promises to be the hardest-fought
series since the two leagues have
been playing. Yesterdays "a vic
tory by Baltimore demonstrated that
the Orioles. when crowded, can play
ball. They loped through a poor
league this year and didn't know
what 1t was to fight until the Saints
made things interesting for them in
the first four innings yesterday.
McAvoy's home run in the bleaChers
with two men on base was really
the turning point of the game.
Bentley. who was touched rather
freely early in the contest. grew
stronger and finished up by striking
out nine men.
The teams play today, Saturday
and Sunday here. There is no game
tomorrow. Sunday night they leave
for st. Paul. where they will con.
tinue the fight next Wednesday,

5.-Virgfnia' football squads have
been making good use Of the bright
afternoons this week In their
preparations for. the Saturday game

Monday afternoon the varsity took

every opportunity which those In
control Of the game can bring about
to make 1t easier for him to attend
the championships.
The finest solution for this is
the middle. Western championship
course. IL this were somewhere In
the Mississippi or the Missouri val
ley the game would be assured OF
the greatest possible number OF
contestants at the championships
and the whole country would be
represented each year.
Such a course would be self-sup-
porting because, with the course pur-
posely designed to be the very last
word in testing courses in this coun-
try, If not in the world, there are
thousands of golf enthusiasts who
would take the same pride in play
ing it that one derives in making
the rounds of st. Andrews. Every
golfer would want to measure his
skill over the championship course.
A reasonable fee could be charged
for each day of play and the money
thus derived could be used to keep
the Iourse in tip-top condition.
Another point is that golf enthu.
siasts everywhere would come to
know the exact makeup of each of
the holes 80 that when the cham.
pionship was on the thousands Of
men and women who would follow
the fortunes of the players during
the matches would know just what
they were going through as they
progressed down the course. All
the enthusiast gets out Of 1t new is
the names of each days winners.
Championship golf, under these
one.course conditions, would develop
into something akin to the following

II such a course were created 1t

purposes and would be self.support-
ing. The National Amateur cham.
pionship could be held over II each
year, and perhaps the open cham
pionships as well. Inaddition sec
tional championships might be de.
cided over the same course, but at
least the great course would be the
home of the annual national anna
teur.
AS things are now there are many
fine young amateur golfers who can
attend the championship only every
other year. This is 80 because OF
the rule that puts the championship
in the East one year, and in the
West the next. On the face of 1t
1t looks to be the most eequable
solution OF the problem of where
to hold each years championship, as
1t distributes the meetings between
East and West. On analysis, how
ever, the theory does not hold.

The Yanks have finished in eighth
place a couple of times and three
times under other pilots than Hug
gins, they finished second.
The Yanks now have finished
their twentieth year in the Ameri-
can League, being just half the
age of the Giants, whom they meet
in the big jamboree this week. The
first Yankee manager was Clark
Griffith, who is no longer an active
manager, but is now president of
the Washington Senators.
It was in 1908 that the Ameri.
can League invaded New York,
placing q club Of stars on the
old Hilltop Grounds, at Broadway
and 168th street. Clark Griffith
was manager and the team,
picked from other clubs along the
major league trail, was highly
rated when the Yankees opened
on their grounds.
Jack Chesbro, Jesse Tannehill,
O'Connor, John Camel, Jimmy Will
liams, Wild Conroy, Herman Long.
Willie Keeler, Dave Fultz and Harry
Howell were among the stars pluck
ed to give the American League a
successful entry into the metropolis.
Griffith's Yankees finished fourth
in 1903, and the following year the
club was a pennant contender down
TO the final day of the race, when
a wild pitch in a double header with
Boston killed off New York s
chances.
The 1905 Yanks finished sixth, hut
Griffith made changes and mad the
team back in second place in 1906.
In 1907 the Yanks dropped to fifth
and in 1908 Griffith resigned in mid.
season when his club went to pieces
completely and dropped to eighth
place. Elberfeld finished the 1905
season as manager.
George Stallings became manager
OF the New York Club in 1909, in
fused a lot of new and younger
material into the combination and
brought his charges home in fifth
place.
Tn 1910 the Yankees were the
surprise of the league, being con-
tenders all the way and finishing
second. Friction between StahingS
and Hal Chase led to Stallings'
resignation in early September.
Chase succeeded him and remained
in charge in 1911. when the club
finished sixth, That ended Chase as
a manager. Harry Wolverton ruled
for the 1912 season and his aggre.
cation finished eighth.
