HIGH FACES

STRENUOUS

Manager Hylton Arranges Gridiron Tussles With Leading Teams of Western Indiana.

By Henry J. West.

Should Garfield high weather the present gridiron season without a single set-back the eleven will have established a record that will be hard to beat. In glancing over the chart arranged by Manager Hylton it looks as if the north-end warriors have the most strenuous schedule of games ahead of them in the history of the school.

The nrst game will be played at Jasonville October 9, an,d the season will be brought to a close with the contest with Wiley on Thanksgiving day. This year the purple and white gladiators will play half of their games at home and the other half abroad. It was hoped to book four games at home, but owing to conflicts with the schedules of Rose Poly and "Wiley only three home games could be arranged.

All of the elevens booked have good reputations with the possible exception of Ja3onville. Garfield ran away with the fracas with the miners' last year, t-ut a tough contest is expected this year, as all available dope points to a fast and strong team at the down state burg. Every one of the other schools are expected to make the north-enders

No, You Alphonso Garfield I

"Mv dear Gaston Wiley, woulds't Indulge in football on the Rose campus Thanksgiving?" "Yes, my dear Alphonso Garfield, I woulds't."

And then the etiquette of the football lot is disdainfully cast away. Tt's -not football, the old grads would shout.

But it's humane, those who saw the last bloody struggle would reply. And so it seems that the combination of both would please each. So, let's have human football.

Wiley high school, if tradition can t'e counted for anything, can £lay as clean and progressive a gjame of football as anv high school In tne country. Garfield high school can do the same. Both schools are fighters it must be admitted and applauded. For that Is the kind a spirit that deserves credit. But it is onlv the clean fighting spirit that should get this credit.

Since the announcement of the probability that these two high school I teams will be matched again on the

gridiron the students of both schools have taken the right attitude. They know that no matter who loses a Terre Haute team will win.

That Is the spirit that 1s commendable. And Wiley and Garfield will banish all ill feeling this year and Wiley will be for Garfield and Garfield will be for Wiley. And they both will be for Terre Haute, where clean sports are liked and clean athletes encouraged.

How about it, Alphonso and Gaston?

JASONVTLLE IN ROMP.

JASONVILLE, Ind., Oct. 2.—Jasonvllle high defeated Worthington here this afternoon in a one-sided game by the score of 44 to 0. The visitors were never dangerous, the locals gaining ground at will. Priest, Barnhlll and Campbell were the stars for Jasonvllle, although every player put up a dandy game.

By virtue of Its victory, Jasonvllle dlalms a tight grip on the Tribune Wabash valley trophy, to be given to the high school team making the best showing for the season.

PHILLIES WIN FIRST FUG IN 30 SEASONS

Moran First Quaker City Pilot to Cop In Years—Turned Trick With 23 Men.

The Philadelphia Nationals, coming champions of the National league, are a club formed of cast-offs from other clubs. Two-thirds of their number are men other managers had given up as big league possibilities.

Tho 1915 pennant Is the first flag for the Philadelphia National league club in 30 years of striving. 'Moran is dealing the theory that a whole army of athletes is necessary to win a pennant an awful jolt. The Quaker chieftain has used only 23 players this year and he has had his team out in front almost all season long.

One of the 23—Joe Oeschger—was farmed to Providence. No major league leader has done less experimenting this season than Charlie Dooln's successor.

He got a good line on his men at the training camp and retained only one "rookie." Additions to the club since the season started have teen the two pitching Georges—Chalmers and McQuillan.

In 1906 the Cubs won the National league banner with 23 players in 1907. they had 24 and in 1908 they had 26. The Pirates of 1909 numbered 29. The Cubn ca,me to the top, in. 1910 with 27 pastlrfters.

The number of men John McGraw used when he was winning the flags ot 1911, 1912 and 191S was, respectively. 28, 28 and 32. George Stalllngs employed 34 athletes while he was winning in 1914.

Moran hasn't shifted his material around mueh either. Paskert has played four positions, Whitted three. Stock, Weiser, Becker and Adams, two, and the rest of the men only one.

Shortstop Jimmy Bancroft has been on the shortstopping job in every game the Quakers have played this year but not in every inning of every game.

Kannie spoke rudely to Ernest Oesophagus Quigley In the second game of the double-header with the Pirates on Julv 12 and was banished.

This is the Fhil roster of 1916 and the way Moran has used his men: Paskert—First base, left field, center flold and right field.

Whitted—First base, left field and center field. Stock—Third base and shortstop.

Weiser—Left field and center field. Becker—'Left field and right field. Adams—Catcher and first base. All the other players have performed in their regular positions without a single switch.

Baseball fans, by following this dope closely, will be able to win every bet on the world series, or at least by following my dope thoy cannot possibly lose only what they bet.

Behind the bat the Phillies have Eddie Burns, while Boston will use two German soldiers, Carrigan and Cady. The latter two' have been picked by all of the baseball experts as the greatest in the business, so the most effective work in the world series can be expected iom Burns.

As to the pitching department, the matter can be dismissed with a line or two. The Phillies have Alexander, but the Braves have Nehf. and unless the Terre Haute find has a stroke of paralysis or loses his left arm before next Frldav the ultimate outcome will be one, two, three, four for Boston. The other Boston pitchers have joined the

added seven more and Buck followed with a forty-yard dash for a touchdown. Carter kicked goal, Rose, 14: Normal, 0.

Poly kicked off to Newlln, who fumbled, Yatsko recovering the ball. Carter dodged his way for a twenty-five yard gain, but on the next play Rose was penalized fifteen yards. Carter and Trimble, with the latter pf the receiving end, then negotiated a forward pass for a touchdown. Carter's pass was a beauty and Trimble completed a forty-five yard gain when he dashed over the goal line. The Poly captain again kicked goal and the Engineers were leading, 21 to 0.

Following the next kick off, Poly secured the ball on a fumble and started a procession down the field, which ended on the twenty-yard line when a Rose warrior fumbled. Normal was penalized five yards for off-siae play and Poly held, securing the ball on downs. Carter then plowed through for twenty yards and Yatsko took the

Orr Intercepts PM*.

The next touchdown was of the hurry-up variety. Yatsko kicked off to Newlin and on the first play attempted Orr intercepted a forward pass and romped forty-five yards for a marker. Carter failed to kick goal, the ball hitting the upright, and what proved to be the final counter had been registered, making the total Rose, 34 Normal, 0.

The half ended shortly after that and at the start of the third period Coach Gilbert called on his substitutes to show their wares. The next to last quarter saw the ball see-saw up and down the field, but with no result. A spurt was touched off in the last quarter, but time was called with the ball in Normal's possession with the losers eighty-five yards from home. Line-up and summary: NORMAL (0) POS.

One on Cy Pieh,

Former Vet Hurler

Cy Pieh, the gaunt Yankee pitcher, formerly with the Dayton Central league club, is slowly, but surely coming to know the various American league club owners by- sight. We are told by a New York scribe that Pieh comes from a email town, but Is becoming familiar with city life.

On the second trip of the Yankees to St. Louis this season Pieh was practicing on the side lines with his mates. It had rallied hard the night before and the base lines were soaking wet. Various ground keepers were trying to put them in playing shape by means of dry earth, sawdust and gasoline.

An elderly man, wearing a sweater coat and a pair of long rubber boots, came striding along and issued some brief orders to the laborers.

As he passed Pieh the latter stopped him. "Look as if he wo'll play today, George?" inquired Pieh. "Hie stranger grinned. "Oh, I guess so." Then he passed on, and Pieh thought no more about it.

Last week New York was playing again at &'t. Louis. The Yankees had, on their squad, a recruit catcher named Alexander. A couple of years ago Alexander had been tried out by the Browns and then sent to the minors, winding up this spring at Oakland.

Alexander sat on the bench with Pieh and the same elderly man came along. He chatted a mlnuie with Alexander, asking him hoW he liked New York and how he was getting along.

When he left Pieh turned to the catcher and said, "Who was that guy, Alex?" "Whv, that's Mr. Hedges, the owner of the St. Louis club." "Oh," replied Pieh, "I thought it was the groundkeeiper."

However, Lewis plays any position. .One time he played the bloodhound in "Uncle Tom's Cabin" and he lias showed no let down. He batted .402 on the Hymera team, where he pulled off the greatest play In baseball. He was new to the game and knocked a home run.
