SEVEN GAME LEAD WOW LS
 MARGIN LW THE NATIONAL
TAD JONES MAKES
 REPLY 10 CRITICS
Denies It Costs S20,0OO to Put
 Player on Field

New Haven, Sept, 8 RS-T, A, D, Jones. head football coach at Yale university, yesterday took occasion to answer some of the attacks made recently on football" when address ing a meeting of the Lions club here,
 Defending football from the charges made by an unknown grad uate football manager in articles ap- bearing in newspapers throughout the country, he said that the claim that 1t costs S20,O0O to put a foot ball player on the field is without foundation. He added, however, that even if 1t were true. 1t would be worth that price to get young man who had the fundamentals of true sportsmanship in him,
 Tn my opinion football is the fin est game, in sports, bar none," Coach Jones said. No other sport draws on the finest qualities man pos scsses as does football, no other game calls forth and indicates his sense of fairness and sportsman ship"
 After saying that any abuses in the game were of such a minor and unimportant nature that we forget them" He denied that i've go out after players"
 Recently I received a telegram from New York upstate city ask ing what can you do for 19C pound tackle? ?'" he continued. Now that boy had the wrong idea and he was soon given to understand that Yale is not doing anything to get football players"
 Touching on the changes in the rules he said that under the modern game, the officials are selected in 3 short time, while in olden times long drawn out conferences were necessary to name them.
 As far as I am concerned" he said Bill Roper and Bob Fisher can pick the officials for our games and am sure that they feel the same about me"

CUTLER OF PIRATES
 IS OUT FOR H0NORS
Youthful Pirate Is Bear At Scor- ing Runs and Hitting
 Triples

Pittsburgh, Sept 15, - Hagen "Kiki' Cuyler, youthful sensation Of the Pirates. may not top the old cir cult in clouting this season but he st least seems certain of winning several other individual honors.
 One of these is in scoring runs. another in garnering triples and still another in stealing bases At thls writing he's quite a bit out in front in run-scoring, having crossed the ran 10 more times than has Horns hy, his closest competitor. Hes got an average of better than one run 10 the fracas.
 In crashing out triples, Cuyler IS showing his heels 10 the rest or the field by q wide margin. He tops both major leagues in this respect heinz some half a dozen in the lead of the best three-bagger sWafsnen in the big show.
 Tn swiping hassocks, Cuyler IS finding q bunch of competition from lis teammate. Carey, generally ac- knovledged the base stealing king in the old circuit. Cuyler stands an even chance to win, however.
 The Pirate 10. is also right heat the top in another department o' rlav---nitting two-ply smashes. Tru2' Rottomlev of tho Cards IS at present slowing the WY, but Cuyler is nl : , flaw behind and may yet overh7u the nr sent leader.
 All in all Cuyler Is having quite a .nccessful year, 1+eritc the fact thH' il is only his second as z regn'al in the main tent.

St. Louis, Sept 1S.-One of the sensations of the 1925 major league season.
 That's Harry Rice, star outflelder of the St. Louis Browns.
 In his first campaign as a regular Rice has made good with ven- geance. His batting has been one of the bright spots of the Sislerites' play and afeld he's performed like a veteran.
 Rice came up during the 1924 season. He came as an infelder and during the flag end of the chase saw 3. bit of service for the Browns at third base.
 Replaced Veteran Johnny Tobin This year however, he's been used pretty exclusively in- the pas lures working in lieu of the veteran Tobin In right field. After break ing into the garden combination l Rice virtually put Tobin on the bench for the remainder of the chase.
 Rice can hit, He's only a little fellow, though stockily built. but he sure takes healthy cut at the old horsehide. He's fast. plays heads up ball and covers plenty of territory in the outpost area.
 An unfortunate injury in a game at Detroit recently rendered Rice unfit for service for the rest of the season, At the time of the accident

was well up with the batting lead CTS, boastins a mark around .3s0. Not bad for ones initial year in the main circle,
 Rice Is extremely versatile. For besides being a good infelder and outflelder, he can also do a capable turn behind the bat when occasion arises
 In game at Cleveland a few months ago. Rice was called in from the outfield to catch the final in ming Manager Sisler had used up all his catchers endeayoring to put over a batting rally in the ninth, Said rally went across but when the Browns took their turn in the field they found they were all out of re- ceiyers. So Harry Rice was called upon and delivered nicely, though g bit accustomed to the position. Looks Ligc Future Great
 With another years experience behind him, Rice should take rank with the games premier stars. That is, of course, if he lives up to the reputation he established this season. And, frankly, he doesn't t stack up as any flash in the pan.
 He's only youngster. But he learns fast and is one of the most industrious and hardest -toiing players on the Browns payroll.
 Keep your optics on Harry Rice of the St. Louis Browns promieing diamond performer. indeed,

TITLE GAME SET
 FOR TOMORROW
KensiDston and Red Soy Clash
 in NeighborinS Town

Tomorrow afternoon at S;15 o'clock the Kensington baseball team and the Red Sox of New Britain clash in title match at the Ken sington grounds.
 The championship of New Britain is at stake,
 Each team has won one game of | the three game series and in their victories each team deserved to win, thus making it obvious that this de- ciding match will be one that no dyed in the wool fan can afford to pass up.
 There seems to be little to choose between in the two teams. Both are made up of poppy young play CTS with sprinkling of veterans to steady them down, Both are strong in the battery department and also have good batsmen. having strong offensives, It is finely that the usual breaks in a game will play big part in deciding the issue.
 It seems likely now that Manager Tobin will send in Buckland in an effort to stem the tide from the south, while 1t Is not unlikely that Manager Buckley will use the bril- liant Litke in his efforts to turn back the invaders from the north

 Season
(BY BILLY ETANSl

When "Dazzy" Vance, Brooklyn s great pitcher, set down the Phillies without solitary cafe swat the other day he turned in a rather un- usual piece of work,
 For only five days before, the strikeout king had set the same Phils back with but one hit, thus making IS innings of hurling in less than week and allowing just a single safety.
 On both occasions Vance was just about as near to a perfect game as he perhaps ever will be. In the first one, a single by "Chicken" Hawks robbed him of g place in haseball's hall of fame alongside of Addie Joss, Cy Young and Charley Robertson. Hawks wal the only foe to reach first base, ant as he was later caught stealing, onl! 27 batters faced Vance.

 On top of Vance's two remarkable pitching exhibitions came a two-hit contest by Sad Sam" Jones of the Yankees. Jones held the heavy hitting Athletics to pair of blows, one a scratch by Cochrane, Jones failing to cover first on the Mack catcher's intield tap,
 A perusal of the box scores reveals that more games are being played under the double figure hits than above the single mark these days.
