Pittsburg at Brooklyn. St. Louis at Philadelphia. Boston, Mass., Sept. 27. Boston's meek and lowly tailenders rose up and smote the coming back champions hip and thigh yesterday in the opening game of the Chicago series. Score, 5 to 3. It looked like a soft game for the Cubs when they annexed two runs in the opening round" with only one man out, but they had a tough time taking one more run off Buster Brown in the rest of the game. Those inoffensive Doves did not experience half as much trouble scoring tallies. They tied up the count In the second inning and won out in the "seventh, when Overall was batted off the slab and even the summoned life saver. Brown of the tribe of Mordecai, did not stave oft defeat. The battle was lost, however, before the three fingered star butted into it under orders. If Chance's men had not been trying to win the game it would not have mat tered so much, but they were trying, every man of them, and the P. L. had two of the hurlers on the mound who are counted upon to stand off Connie Mack's champions in the world's series. These two facts in conjunction set the Cubs and their leader thinking, and their thoughts would not bear publica tion In a family newspaper. VANDERBILT CUP CARS IN MIXUP Mineola, L. I.( Sept. 27. In yesterday morning's daylight fog two Vanderbilt cup cars came together in a terrific smashup, which demolished one utterly, hurling the crew thirty feet In the air. As William Knipper piloted the Lancia, which S. C. H. Sangerman imported to carry off the honors in the Wheatley hills race, at a terrific speed south of Westbury, near the Junction of Parker and Old Country roads, he suddenly crashed into the Marquette-Buick, driven by Robert Burman. The Lancie hit the Buick on the left rear wheel, tangled itself somehow In the front wheel and rolled over ana over again. Knipper shot in one direction, August Guichard, the mechanician, in another. Knipper landed on his head, but jumped to his feet and rusned across the field, springing for Guichard. who! ran around, equally dazed, crying for. Knipper. Guichard suffered a broken wrist. Burman escaped without an upset. "The first thing I knew," said Burman, l saw a man nying over my heVl, ana ne seemea to De spilt into two pieces. I did not learn until afterward that I had seen two men in the air at once. The Lancia racer is battered, but will be repaired in time for the race. The Buick escaped with a broken hub cap. MICHIGAN SQUAD NOW NUMBERS 21 Ann Arbor, Mich., Sept. 27. The arrival of "Vic" Pattengill, end on the 1909 eleven, and Lewis, end on the sec ond eleven fM three years durlne' Michigan's earlier championship teams, swelled the list of Wolverine football candidates today to twenty-one and completed the coterie of veterans who will he on hand this year. Coach Yost said that in all probability he would use Pattengill In the same position this year. Pattengiil's arrival gives Yost six veterans. Captain Benbrook. Conklin, Edmiaiis and Wells, Magidsohn and Pattengill. Yost announced that the "eaty work" was finished. The new plays were given the first team, and in only one of which was the direct pass prominent. , , . KID M'COY IN NARROW ESCAPE FROM DEATH New York, Sept. 27.

McCoy was saved from deatn through the prowess of Frank George, who was his only companion on the little vessel, when it went down. George swam ashore from the burning boat and rowed back with a boat in time to save McCoy, who was weakening fast. ARE YOU REU)0 TUB TOOK!

Mr. McAleer and his people got in in time to play for the championship of sixth place, but were asked to wait until today, when a double header will make one club look better than the other or Just about the same. ' But Alanager McAleer and President Johnson got together and produced one of the best rainy day stories of the season. It is impossible to reproduce it chapter by chapter, and a synopsis will have to suffice. If the world's series doesn't begin before Sunday, the 16th of October, there will be another series during the preceding weok that is sure to entertain American leaguers until the big show starts. S1EFFEI SEES FIGHT FOR QUARTERBACK JOB "BBBBBBBBSBI Five Candidates Out for Po sition Promise Keen Competition. Prospects for a championship team this year at the Midway are not as bright as in former years. Although there seems to be plenty of backfield material in Captain Crawley, Sauer, Menaul, Wilson, Kuh, Davenport, Rog ers and Young, there is a dearth of good line men. At present the only experienced line candidates are Radermacker and Kassulkar. For the other five line positions Coach Stagg will be forced to develop from new and almost inexperienced material. For these re malning five positions Carpenter, Whit lng, ree-man, Payne, Sawyer of last year's freshmen and Whiteside of the scrubs have shown up best thus far. Stagg will find some difficulty in se curing a man to fin the quarter back position. There are five candidates, and Rogers, who has had some experience during the past two years, seems to have a call. Young, who played end , last year, should make a strong bid for j the position. He is a clever open field runner, and makes forward passes accurately, and if he proves himself good general should land the place. ; Wilson, Lawler and Kuh are the other j candidates, and Wilson, on account his kicking ability, seems to have call on the other two men. It will be one of the best scraps ever seen on the Midway and the rooters are pulling hard for their favorites. GARY BOXES 12 SPEEDY ROUNDS Wolgast with his staff of trainers . arrived in Fond du Lac. Wis., yesterday o finish training for his fight with Tommy Gary Thursday night. Gary who is training at a downtown gymna sium. did not take to the road this morning because of the bad weather, but boxed twelve rounds with Harry Forbes. Cess Walsh and Joe Herrick.

KAUFMAN WINS TAME FIGHT FROM KUBIAK Baltimore, M., Sept. 27. Al Kubiak, the Michigan lion, did not roar, and Al Kaufman, middleweight champion, did not increase his reputation last night in their six round bout before the Armory Athletic club. The men were hissed continually by the audience that crdwded Albaugh's theater. Kaufman easily outpointed, his man, hitting him when and where he pleased and it was the opinion that he could have put his opponent away in the first round had he so desired. While both men landed often the blows struck were weak and neither showed any marks of the so called contest when they left the ring, Kaufman appeared to be In excellent shape and easily outclassed his heavy adversary.

I take no stoek In the belief that the quarter backs will be inntsrntflcant this year. A great many of the plays will depend on the reaeral as heretofore. In other eases the quarter back will be only a half back. JIKE MURPHY, University of Penn sylvanla Xever before have I seen so
