The Seventh Ward Chicks, under
the management of Herb Ferguson
copped the second half honors in the
City League and will begin the series
with Krebs, winners of the first half,
for the seasons championship at
Pennsy Field tomorrow afternoon.
Manager Ferguson has a fast
bunch of ball tossers and expects to
grab the pennant. Here are some
thumb nail sketches of those COM
prising Seventh Ward;
Manager Ferguson has been con-
nected with local baseball for the
past Is years and was one of the or
ganizers of the original City League
which later became the All-Wil-
mington League. He managed and
caught for the Rockford team when
they won the first pennant of the
City League and were never below
third place while they were repre-
sented in league baseball. He caught
and captained for the Pioneer team
when they were recognized as one
of the best teams in the State. Man
ager Ferguson organized the Sew
erth Ward Club one year ago and is
president of the association which
is recognized as one of the lead
ing athletic organizations in the city.
Captain Candy 1ke) Smith. has
been connected with some of the
leading teams in the State. namely
Parkside, of the All-Wiimington
League, and Harlan, of the Steel
League. Smith has been one of the
of the Chicks considered
ono of the best outfielders in the
league and also a reliable man with
The stick.
The Chicks catching department
has been ably taken care of by two
youngsters. Daniel Casey and Ber-
nard Ward. These boys have the
earmarks of coming catchers. Both
possess wonderful throwing arms and
are considered dangerous with the
willow, as both have broken up some
tight games with their heavy club
bing. Seventh Ward lost a good
catcher to the army in the person of
DOC" Cobb. who no doubt is the
best catcher in the State.

is composed of Paul Ward and Ir-
win Whiteman. Ward is a local boy,
who got his start with Parkside. He
possesses a wonderful pitching arm
and is also a handy man in pinches.
He ranks among the average pitch
ers in hitting. Whiteman halls
from Newark. He has come into the
as a pitcher for having
won all the games he has pitched
with the exception of two. He also
is there with the stick.
Paul McCullion, who covers the
short garden for the Chicks. has
been a reliable man at that position,
getting everything that came his
way. He also carries a whip that
seldom fails. He has been one of
the mainstays in the hitting depart
ment and ranks among the leaders

SCIENTISTS STATE
ENTOMBED MINERS
MAY STILL BE ALIVE

Jackson, Cal. Sept. 9.-Science to-
day turned despair into hope when
crews of workers resumed their task
of digging their way into the Argo
naut gold mine here, where forty
seven miners have been imprisoned
for twelve days.
1t seemed yesterday the rescuers
would release only corpses. Late last
night, however. came the astonishing
announcement that chemical tests
had demonstrated that all the men
were alive. Argonaut officials said
they were preparing formal state
ment declaring it their opinion that
none of the miners had perished
These officials backed up their asser
ton with the offer of a reward OF
$4,000 to the first crew reaching the
miners.
A delicate instrument it was ex
planned was lowered into the fiery and
gaseus shaft. 1t had recorded nc
gases indicating the presence of q
single dead body. Moreover it was
reported to show that noxious gases
had not penetrated to the regior
where the men were entombed ant
that the air in the lower levels was
pure enough to sustain life. Al
analysis of air currents in the shat
indicated that there was no carbon
monoxide below the $500 foot level
Previously it had been believed tina
, poisonous gases had permeated leveli
far below that.
