CATERPILLAR Ears

Caterpillars have shown the abil-
ity TO hear. Certain sounds result
in sudden movements of the body.
But where are their ears? Doctor
Allard's experiment showed that
the caterpillar's sense of hearing is
aided by hairs that absorb sound.
To prove this, experimenters
coated the hairs with shellac or
weighted them with water or flour
or even singed them off. Then,
when noises were made, the cater
pillar did not respond. The fact
that its hairs had been deadened
made 1t deaf.

Mack, Through With Extras,
Will Stand Pat on Lineup
To Series End, Says Collins

he load for that seventh and deciding
Aame.
We are not beaten yet. and the Cards
ere going to find it out before it's all
over.
When some of our men did not look
so good at the plate today, Manager
Mack decided to switch and give our
extra men a chance. Their efforts
were not any batter. and he told me
that from now on we will win or lose
with our regulars In there. We don't
expect to make any further SubStitu-
tions unless an accident makes 1t
necessary. Consequently our lineup
will be the same from now on. If the
Cards can beat us again, we will take
our hats of to them.
1t seems to be just a natural thing
to hand it to this Pepper Martin. He's
been in there so strong in every single
game 1 can't think of anything else
good enough to say about him. He
sure is a ball player.
Grimes may face us in the next
game at st. Louis. Well, If he does
he won't get away after the manner
he did at Shibe Park. He had en-
joyed good rest previous to this game,
but now he will be called upon to
pitch with only an interval Of three
days, and this may not be enough for
fellow who has been tossing them up
for as many years as Burleigh has.

SUN BEAU CLOSES
HIS CAREER TODAY
Coin Winning Turf Champion
Seeking Third Straight
Hawthorne Gold Cup.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
OHICAGO, October S.-Sun Beau,
the money-winning champion
~ thoroughbred Of all time, faced
the final race of his long career
today in the $25, 900 added Hawthorne
gold cup, and sought to say adieu with
a third straight victory In the rich
event.
For one of the few times since he
became the country's greatest handicap
performer, however, the son Of Sun
Briar- beautiful Lady, was not the over
night favorite.
The Handicappers figured A. C.
Bostwick's Mate, the technical 3-year-
old champion of the season, as better
bet over the mile and quarter journey.
Mate was quoted at 6 to 5, while the
figure on Sun Beau was 8 to 5.
Four other horses we're in the pros
pective field. Plucky Play. victor over
Sun Beau in the Stars and Stripes
handicap at Arlington Park, was out
for another attempt to beat the great
6-year-old, along with Jim Dandy, the
surprise winner over Whichone and
Gallant Fox in the Travers Midsummer
derby at Saratoga last year, and the
Reichert Brothers entry OF MY Dandy

| tainly should break 1t In the next game.
Besides Martins hitting, another
thing that hurt the Philadelphia team
was Hallahan's calm spirit. He was
unmovable, no matter what happened
You remember when Simmons hit that
terrific drive that struck Hallahan on
the leg. That was a hard blow, and
1t hurt, too, but Hallahan did not bat
an eyelash. He would not let the
Athletics know he had been hurt He
just stood there until the ball was re-
turned to him from left field.
Another play like 1t came up In the
seventh. This time Foxx's burning drive
! hit Hallahan on the shoulder and rolled
past me out to right field Again Bill
refused to rub the hurt. He Just took
it and went about his business. Now
that had its effect on the Athletics.
I'm sorry Bill could not pitch an
other shutout. High might have thrown
Simmons out at the plate in the sew
enth but Andy was trying his best to
pull Hallahan out of bad spot on one
play. One was out at the time, with
Simmons on third and Foxx on first.
and High figured he could stop the AS
right on a double play. He missed.

ton about Martins home run with one
man on base at the time, and, as it
turned out, those were enough scores to
win for them.
We simply were helpless before Hal

Suddenly, as something clicked in his
fertile noodle, he turned and said, How
do you think a junior District league
would go over?"
He received an Affirmative answer.
But how such thought struck him
while he apparently was intently watch
ing a girls pin match was something
that was wondered about.
A NYWAY, here's the idea as outlined
IA by Bill. The Meyer Davis impress
Sario plans to form bowling league
for boys under 16 years of age The
league Is to conform with all the regu-
lations OF the Mems District League,
possibly the clasSiest of the East, even
to the point of operating on circuit of
alleys. The matches will be held on
Saturday afternoons, the kids 10y
DAY, what with the doors of the school
houses being bolted.
Bill figures that such a league will
be success, and to virtually assure
that he proposes charging the young
sters In the league only 10 cents a
game, Of which S cents will be taken in
by the alley to pay the pin boy. The
other nickel will be put into the prize
fund. which, Bill calculates, will be
around $201.50 in the event 10 teams
compete and the schedule runs ~
weeks.
~ A KIDS league like this ought to
"A be an incentive for youngsters"
allowed Bill. It'll provide some
good competition, and we might find
some future big-league timber among
the boys.
Il guess we could get six or eight
teams without any trouble. Maybe, ten.
John Blick, know, will put in an Ar
cadia and Convention Hall team. I'll
have one for the Lucky Strike. Tad
Howard is sure to enter a team for
Rendezvous, and so are Proctor and
Carl at Silver Spring and Takoma Park.
And then Henry Hiser might put a
