FREDERICKSBURG OUT
OF SOUTHWEST TEXAS
RACE AFTER DEFEATS.
Alamo-Pecks Win Both
Games From Fighting
Giants Sunday.

After duly warning the Alamo Peck
Indians that they needed ONLY one
of the two games Sunday at Schwab
Field in order to get a strangle-hold
on the Southwest Texas semi-pro base
ball title and that they were coming
with blood in their eyes, the Freder-
icksburg Giants saw their pennant
hopes flicker out when, the Indians
took both games.
The Giants were about to make good
on their threat in the morning game
in which they were leading, 3 to >,
until Joe Strauss blasted their hopes
by hitting a honey with the bases
full, two out and two strikes on
him.
The steadiness of Morrison in the
pinches featured the, box work in the
morning game, while Strauss, Dwyer,
Whitney and Morrison did good field
ing. Bobby Cannon appeared in the
Indian lineup after season in the
Texas Association, and lived up to his
reputation, as fast base-runner. The
Giant stars were U. Henke, Rcichc-
nan and 1sangerhans. .e
In the crucial game in the after
noon, the Indians met the crisis by
runaway methods, trampling the al
ready dwarfed Giants, s 10 G. Two
home runs on successfully pitched
balls was the way Conrad and Schraub
started off the fourth inning in the
afternoon game. Allen also made n
homer in this game for the Indians
Schraub worked well until the sew
enth. He was replaced by Lefty Stair
in the eighth. Stair faced Brown in
the last inning, after two runs had
been made and with the bases full, and
struck him out.
Sundays double win for the In

Leaflets From World Series History

make comfort greater for huge baseball!
crowds.
"Babe" Adams saved the series for
Pittsburg when it became ev MT that
the veteran pitchers of the team were
not TO be relied upon. Mullin Won two
games in three starts for Detroit, one
shutout,and Donovan pitched and
won a splendid game for the Tigers.
This was the first series in which
Cobb and Wagner had ever played
against each other and there was ire
mendous interest to see what the rival
stars of the two leagues might do.
Wagner played to form. He batted
well and fielded we'll and stole as many
bases as the entire Detroit team. Cobb,
as usual, fell down in the wo..d series
after burning w the league in the reg
ular season. But he made n clean
steal of home in the second game and
helped his record some.
Delehanty Hitting Star.
Jim Delehanty Of Detro was the
best batter of the series with a per-
centage of SIG, even leading Wagner,
who hit 1873. Detroit batted slightly
better than Pittsburg but the latter
fie!ded better and stole bases with
ease. Gibson of Pittsburg was much
stronger back of the bat than his rival
and Cobb had little chance to run
wild on the paths.
In the first game Tommy Leach
made wonderful catch in center off
Cobb at time when home run. as it
was labelled. would have tied the
score. Fred Clarke tied the score
in the fourth with a home run. the
first ever made in world series.
Camnitz lasted but three innings for
Pittsburg in the third game and Willis,
who succeeded him was little better.
Schmidt and Delehanty between them
drove home six runs for D5troit.
Pittsburg started the third game
with five runs in the first inning.
Clarke hit a home run again in the
fifth game, putting his team in the
lead, where it remained.

STONER vs.. WHITAKER
Former Cat Likely to

The Cats Monday were prepared to
face the shoots of one of their old
mates in Tuesdays opener. Manager
Larry Gilbert of the visitors indicated
that he would send "Buzzer Bill"

staff, to the hill, unless he decided to
use Jose Martina, another former
Texas Lacquer and also veteran.
Whitaker and Martina virtually
twirled New Orleans to champion
ship between them this summer.
St0ner Looks Likely.
Manager Atz of the locals declined
to name his pitcher in advance, but it
is the general belief that his ace, Lii
Stoner, will be PACED for duty. AtZ,
however, used Stoner, Pate and Wach-
tel in three-inning shifts here Sunday
when his team took the last game of
the preparation" series from Texas
League all-star club managed by Jim
Galloway of San Antonio.
The Cats flashed their old-time form
in winning Sunday by score of z

GAME FOR EACH MAN
Problem of Recreation at Vets School
Amounts Almost to That.

Medical examination of 100 or more
students in the Vetrans' Bureau Vo-
,Sa6tonal Framing School in San An.
Tonic has been completed. according TO
Homer Baker, physical director of the
school. This examination was made
for medical records but personal ex-
animation will be started this week
by Mr.. Baker in order TO determine
the physical needs of the students.
The veterans there suffer under vari
Gus disabilities, such as shrapnel
wounds. bullet wounds and the eff
fects of gassing and other injuries
which deprive them Of the use of Ger
tain muscles. Each case needs indi-
vidual attention in order to determine
what sort of exercise is best SUITED
TO il. Collective training can be given
to some extent but there are never
many more than five in one grouT
which can take the same sort of exer-
else.
At present the men are engaging in
games of euoits. indoor baseball, play
ground bail and volley ball. Some o.
them. are able to kick rugby foot
ball around but it is doubtful wheth-
err an eleven will be put in the field
by the school. In the. opinion of Mr..
Baker. there will be sufficient ma
terial for n good basket ball team.
The greatest need of the school II
athletic equipment and grounds equip
ped for playing the different games.
Profits from the official organ of the
Bureau. the "Vetsnuse. will be used
in establishing basket ball courts. Ten
mis- courts will be established later in
the season If sufficient money is raised
