After being “beaned ” b* Aldridge, Ossie Bluege is reported as saying, “I waited for the ball to curve, but it was one of the few 1 have looked at in this series which didn't hook.” Aldridge fed up curve after curve. Meadows stated that he had a sore arm from throwing too many hooks in the opening battle.

"We're .fines' brothers.” Again the gateman notified the Ferndaie player. “Say, I’ve got only one la-other,” exclaimed the surprised gridder. “I ll go out and see what’s going on.” As Jines came up to the gate one of the lads faded away into the nearby scenery. The one who boldly stood his ground really was the player's kin.

They were said to murder speed so Butky showed them some of the real article with Johnson serving it up. The Corsairs are supposed to dote on left-handers. Harris plans to start Ruether, the veteran southpaw in one of the games. Ruether is a “money” player, shrewd and crafty. He is reported to be in splendid shape.

SERIES TEAMS PERFORM IN CAPITAL CITY FOR THREE GAMES

Senators Glad to Get Back on Home Lot to Battle Pirates—Next Fray Saturday. Bu United Press r 1 W ASHINGTON, Oct. 9.—With the score squared at one-all, and anew chance to start all over, both Senators and Pirates are to jump iuto the third struggle of the world’s series here Saturday. Time off caused by the postponement today enabled the title pastimers to settle their strained nerves to some extent by resting at hotels and homes.

Three contests are scheduled here and if the championship isn’t decided with the playing of Monday's game the teams will return to Pittsburgh to finish out the struggle. An all-morning rain drenched the field i t Griffith stadium and prevented hostilies today. Battles will be fought Saturday, Sunday and Monday at the Senators' park. Rest for Senators The Pirates were disappointed when rain knocked out today's contest, but it is not th'ought the Senators worried about it. It means more chance to rest for Walter Johnson and Stanley Covejeskie, the stars of the Washington staff. Johnson pitched Wednesday and “Covey” Thursday, and there is a chance that Johnson will be “in there” again Saturday, although Ruether, Southpaw and Ferguson, right hander, are due and eager for the chance. Krenier, right hander, and Yde, southpaw, are ready to respond to the next mound call for the Pirates. After winning a game each lr. Pittsburgh, tile two major league champions were back to an oven choice In the betting with just. t> slight leaning toward the Senators merely because of the home town angle. The Washington players let it be known emphatically that they did not like the Pittsburgh ball park and several of the Pirate stars said they were thrown off their game by ihe new pine bleachers that the owners of the team erected in center field. Coming in from Pittsburgh, where the natives acted like a lot of college freshmen, a neutral observei could notice that Washington was a bit blase about the series. Last year the capital was in a fever, hut there is not the same novelty now to the big classic of baseball and many fans are peeved because they can not get tickets. Coveleskie Loses The home town fans, of course, figure Buck Harris and his veterans are sure to win another world’s championship even if the plans were upset Thursday when Stanley Coveleskie, one of the three aces of the Washington pitching staff, was knocked off by the Pirates. Coveleskie pitched a fine game of ball, but he lost all the breaks. The winning run was put on base by a slip in the defense when Roger Peckinpaugh, one of an Infield that was Big Series Figures STANDING Won. Lost. SENATORS I 1 PIRATES 1 1 FIRST GAME Washington, 4.

Saturday (today's game poutponed by rain). supposed to be invincible, tried tc i throw the ball before he got it and allowed Eddie Moore, the young Pittsburgh second baseman, to reach first. The hall was wet and hard to handle, but Peck was too anxious for the out and let it get away from him “Kiki” Cuyler’s homer, which hopped into the stands past Joe Harris, then followed and the ball game was over. Many baseball men thought that Coveleskie, who had been a seveninning pitcher in most of his late season games, would be rep'aced by Marberry after he had held the Pirates for seven innings, but Buck Harris let him stay. The veteran Pole wasn’t in any great danger, however, up to the time that he threw one down Cuyler's "alley.” Vic Show’s Gameness Pitcher Vic Aldridge won the Thursday game more through a stout heart than any great game in his arm. He filled the bases twice with none out and escaped with only one run chiefly because he was willing to put the work up to his defense, and the inflelders came through for him. Buck Harris said this morning that Bluege, who was hit on the head Thursday by a pitched ball, was not badly hurt, but was still a little dizzy. He may be able to play Saturday, but it is thought Harris will start Buddy Myer at third. INDEPENDENT FOOTBALL Tho Tuxedo Maroons will piay the Mapieton Juniors next Sunday at Jamison Park, at 3:30.

Notes of Title Play

Bu Times Special t PITTSBURGH, Oct. 9.—Players paid tribute to the late Christy Matthewson before Thursday's game. With each man wearing the black arm band of mourning, the players lined in single file and marched to the flag pole where they stood uncovered as the colors were hoisted to half mast and the band played the National anthem. Vic Aldridge, in warming up, threw nothing but slow curves and then went out and used them successfully against the world champions. Lee Meadows said before the game Thursday that he didn’t think he would be able to pitch another game in the series, because of a sore arm developed from throwing so many curves Wednesday. Vic Aldridge, Thurday’s winning pitcher, is a former Iloosier school teacher. His home is at Indian Springs, Ind. He went from Central Normal College, Danville, Ind., to the Indianapolis A. A. team about ten years ago and gT .dnated from the Hoosiers to the Chicago Nationals. Later he pitched in the Coast league and then was in ought back by the Cubs and later traded to Pittsburgh. Washington boasts the two leading hitters of the series. Joe Harris leads with an average of .364 and Sam Rice, who drove in the winning runs Wednesdaj when he singled with the bases loaded, with an average of .300. Nick Altrock and A1 Schacht worked overtime Thursday. Besides entertaining the bleacher customers in the morning they put on their acts just before the game. Tlie count against Joe Judge was two balls and two strikes when lie liit the first homer of the game. Peck never has favored the ankle he sprained some time ago in the two games of the series. His misplays, though, may be the result of inactivity. He isn’t himself afield. The Pirates displayed a brainy attack, probably profiting from their experience in the opening game against Johnson when they were pressing at bat. They mixed up their style of offensive, Thursday, using first the hit-and-run and then the sacrifice game.

OHIO AT CHICAGO, FEATURE Real Battle in Opening of Big Ten Card —All Teams in Action. By Edward C. Derr ( tilted Pri gs ,S tats Corn snnndent CHICAGO, Oct. 9. —The champion ship season of the Big Ten of the middlewest will be opened Saturday Coach Stager's Chicago Maroons defending their 1924 title against the onslaught of Ohio State and Michigan taking on Indiana at Ann Arbor. Chicago uncovered none of its strength in defeating Kentucky over last week end and is expected to show plenty of new plays against the Buckeyes. Ohio is viewed as a possible title contender, however, and should force the Maroons about to tho limit. Indiana showed strength last Saturday in running up a 31 to 0 score against the State Normal and maycause some trouble for “Hurry Up" Yost's Wolverines. Michigan, however. is the favorite. While tho other six members of tho Big Ten will he engaged in games, none cf them will have anyhearing on the championship.

Minnesota meets Orlnnel at Minneapolis; Northwestern will stand off tho Invasion of Carleton; Purdue's Boilermakers clash with Do Pauw and Wisconsin’s fast improving Badgers take on Franklin at Madison.

On three occasions, Thursday, George Grantham, who is playing the game of his life on first base for the Pirates, turned in great stops of bad throws. Washington lacked the punch Thursday. Buck Harris resorted to the safely attack all through the combat. In the second inning he tried the hit-and-run play with J. Harris on first but Aldridge crossed that by making Bluege miss a wide curve. $27,500 Paid for the Senator The Senator, 5-year-old stallion trotter, was purchased by S. F. Palin, well-known trainer of this city, at the sale of Thom;is D. Taggart horses at Lexington for a reported price of $27,500. It is fir id Palin was acting for Fred E. Sehr idt of Chicago.

FRIDAY, OCX. 9, Mzo

BM PROVE AT LOCAL SCHOOL Shortridge Athletics Pick Up Within Last Year —Grid Team Winning. Shortridge athletics have shown pronounced improvement in the past year. The football squad Is ready to add another victory to Its list. Escaping the Westfield, Crawfordsville and Kirklin games with very few injuries, the same line-up was to start against Elwood today at Washington Park. The team ns a whole is showing no lack of enthuslasium. Tho backfield is in first-class condition. Kilgore has been punting well through out the season. * Tho Shortridge squad has scored an average of twenty-five points over Westfield, Crawfordsville and Kirklin. The student body is supporting the squad well. Tennis Meet Tennis, a big factor in Shortridge athletics, also is in full sway, but on account of wet courts the tennis tournament is being delayed. On next Monday llio folio wing boy* urn I matched in tho school toume.v: Ed Terry vn. Batting, L. Brown vs. winner of Tracy-Morrigon match. N. Ferguson vs. I* Hanull, E. Cohn vs, J. Scluyler.

Coach Enoch Burton’s first call for basketball tryouts was answered by sixty volunteers. Coach Burton, for the last few nights, has been giving the boys a good workout In under* the basket shooting and passing. Although only three letter men are left from last year’s victorious quintet several other promising men are demonstrating their ability. More boys are expected to turn out, after football practice and the tennis tournament. Basket Tournament Last year’s squad was victorious through out the season. The predominant question in the mind of every Shortridge student is, “Will this year's team be as successful as the team of 1924-25?” Only losing one game during the entire season and going to the regional tourney is a reoord that will be hard to equal. The lower classmen are being urged to try out for the team, because the success of last year's team largely was due to the fact that the same players were on the squad the preceding year. Team work is an essential part of the game and Coach Burton is anxious to get tho players started early In their high school career. AT lOWA | lOWA CITY. lowa.
