SWITCH TO DALLAS PROVED A BLESSING TO TEXAS STAR

Dallas, Texas. UP)-Presum- ably the Chattanooga Lookouts didn't think much of Stanley Schino's prowess, either in the out field, or at the plate-sot hey sold him to the Dallas Steers for less than $2,0O0.
 Getting out of Chattanooga must have pleased Stanley. for in his first 24 appearances at bat he collected 16 clean blows for bat ting average of .667. In six games he batted in F runs.
 His mosts pectacular perform ance was in a recent game with the Houston Buffaloes. In five trips he got five hits, two for four bases. In subsequent game with the San Antonio Missions he got one .home run, two doubles and two singles in five appearances.
 Schino, 25, mammoth-shoulder- ed, dark -haired and weighing 1S0 pounds, started the 1884 season the property of Washington. He had played in the Pacific Coast league and the Western and American Associations.
 Washington farmed him to Kansas City where he warmed benches until Clark Griffith de- cided to denote him still further to the Chattanooga chain gang. There he polished a few more benches.
 Since his arrival in the Texas League Schino has improved to the point where it seems certain he will equal or surpass his best year, 1881, when he hit 1854 for Omaha and Wichita.

 WATERFOWL LOT
PrincetOns Play Whisker Boys Saturday-Girl
 Pitcher May Hurl

The anti-barbers convention will take place in Watertown Saturday afternoon when the Eastern House of David ball club will engage the Princeton All-Stars for the second time during the current season. In their first meeting the Princetons emerged on the favorable end of 5-3 score. The game of Saturday will start at 2:30 o'clock.
 The Davids have been in this To- cality several times in the past and have encountered and defeated some of the best material avail able. The hairy face boys are a good attraction in any city or town and play one of the best exhibition contests that can be seen anywhere. Their talents are not particularly strange in this locality.
 All Set
 Arrangements for the game are in charge of Charlie Bertrand, president of the Naugatuck Valley circuit and the players who are listed to enter the affair are: Mickey Fill and Milt Cooke of Ter ryville, Guy Zisner, Bill Towne and Award Kemis of Litchfield. Mort Kielty and Art Jarlett of Water town, Bill Flanagan and Sammy Fenn of Oakville and Alex Mazze- rella of Waterbury.
 The same battery that set back the bewhiskered boys on their last visit will work again. Seaman and Schuyler of the Wingdale nine will appear. Henry Golitha Brophy and Gerald Miller will handle the situ- ations.
 Arrangements are also being made to bring Jackie Mitchell, sen sational girl baseball pitcher to Watertown for the game, during which she will pitch two or three innings for the Princetons.

WILSON PROTEST WILL BE HEARD
 THIS EVENING

The protest filed by the Wilson A. C. of the Parks league against decisions in their game with St Stanislaus appears to be on the way. It seems there was some thing of a misinterpretation of the baseball rules and the ball used to tag base runner out was not legally in play. However, the protest committee will act on the matter at Hamilton park after the amateur league tussle this evening.
 The protest board consists of Harry Melvin, William Sheehy, Bob Kiersted and Tom Carney.
 How It Happened
 The ball disputed happened to be bunt along first base line that rolled out. The pill was recov- cred by Malamowski, St Stans catcher and tossed to third in the manner of throw around. Base runners were on first and second and both were returning to bags. Kulman touched second and stepped off. In so doing he was tagged and called out. The apple was in the hands of the short stop at the time and worked in as a hidden ball.
 The rules of organized baseball state that ball is dead after a foul until it is returned to the pitcher and he takes his position on the mound, and the umpire calls play.
 Possibility
 Should the game be ordered re- played following the session to- night St Stans and the Wilson's will meet at Fulton Park at 3 o'clock Sunday In the event St Stans are favoic ed they will meet the Oakland A. c. winners of 70 the initial round in the first contest of q three game series for the league championship. The latter tussle isn't very proba ble at this time, however.

Boys Club Cadets
 Meet Tomorrow

The initial season meeting of the Boys Club Cadets will be held at the club tomorrow night. The main reason for the early start is to dis cuss the destinies of the basketball team, now that it will not par ticipate in the state circuit.

The Cadets won the state title last sea- son and were the runners up in a state tournament that followed a the Central "Y."
 According to information at hand Silvo Spagnola will receive opposition for the berth as man. ager. Clarke Cooke looms as a strong candidate. The session will start at o'clock,

The reason the left heel is inn mediately replaced at the start of the downswing is to allow the left side to turn out of the way so that the hands and arm can swing freely.
 Should it be slow in turning back to the ball. it sets up re- sistance which keeps the weight on the right foot. This sets the low point of the arc back few inches and results in the ball be- ing hit on the upswing. A lofted or topped shot is the outcome.
 When the weight is shifted to it's proper place. on the left foot, a flatter arc is obtained and the ball is hit flush in the back.

In readily granting the request, Commissioners George Rocks, Rus sell Handy and Thomas F. Kane, expressed qualification that O'Hara had taken the initiative to avoid the clash. Under this present ar rangement the Rockingham fall meeting closes on Saturday, Oct. 9th, while the Narragansett fall meeting opens on Tuesday, Oct. 9th, three days respite which will permit horsemen to ship from one track to the other
 The two days clash at the end of Narragansetts present meeting and Rockingham opening, Sept list and 3rd, appears inevitable, but horsemen and the racing pub lie will benefit by the increased purses both parks are offering and which will attract the better class of thoroughbred racers. Particu- larly does this apply to the Rhode Island handicap at NaNragansett on Labor day, for which $15,000 in added money is offered and which must make sure appeal to high grade stables and owners.
 Worth Gesture
 Following the granting of his re- quest, OHara out of a clear sky, came forward with the announce ment that he would dedicate two of Narra agansett's closing days, Mo- vember 5th and 9th, to the cause of charity. Narragansett's popular president announced that all hands at the park would donate their services free Of charge so as to swell the grand total. Pari-mutuel workers will donate their services, the printers will donate the pro- grams and the caterers, Harry NJ. stevens, Inc, will donate their days receipts. These amounts, add ed to the entire gate receipts, plus pari-mutuel percentages. at the present rate of business. will amount to the very sizeable total of something like $50,0O0.
 Bencfciaries
 The amount raised will be di- Yided as follows:
 Pct. Providence Community Chest 20 Catholic Charities Appeal. 20 Pawtucket Community Chest 10 E. Providence District Nurs-
 ing Association ...... 5 Otfer East Providence Chari-

co ON WITH THE RUNNING

1t was hardly necessary for Governor Ehring-
haus to deny the charge of former State Senator
R. L. Whitmire of Polk that the governor of the
state together with the state Democratic chairman
had attempted to manipulate" the county board
fof elections to the discontinue of Mr.. Whitmire,
who appears to be opposing J. Will Pless, Jr., OF
Marion for the solicitorial nomination.
In the first place, if State Chairman Wallace
Winborne, who is neighbor of Mr.. Pless, desired
to manipulate, he could have contrived it easily
enough without calling in the assistance of the
governor to make an attempt
In the second place, and really primarily few
will suspect the governor of having heard of Mr..
Whtmre and his candidacy.
And this is not said by way of discouraging the
Polk county candidate or disparaging him. He is
well within his rights to run and no great capacity
or exceptional training is required by the cleo
torate in it's selection of solicitor
The one admonition we would offer him is to
guard against running fits, to keep his shirt on
and try to disabuse his mind of the suspicion that
the election of a solicitor in his the next fell
lows district depends entirely on the personnel OF
