Manager Nagel explains matters hy honin; thit many of the victories recently credlfed to Belolt and Joliet were Against outside t..ams and were not in fames on the league schedule. At the i sara time he says that the majority of ha bumps Hammond has received were at the hands of outside teams. Having discovered the tie it is necessary to lay it off.

Parduhn's Team Will Be Accompanied By a Big Band of Chesty Rooters
BT raVINd CHAYXETT.
The f.nal drive in preparation for the Rode Island game next Sunday aftertoon V&.3 started yesterday evening by the Hammond football team with a longj signal drill. Srrimmag-e workouts are scheduled for the week-end with Parduhn's stars stacking up against the ether traveling club of the city, which goes under tlie old monicker of the Clabbys. Before the practice sessions started Tuesday and Wednesday. Coach King gathered all the artists around him and explained & few mere new plays which they will probably use against the Arsenal gang. All of tho players who took the trip to Detroit are sorry the contest was not played, as they were all keyed up for a win and Sunday's game will show whether the team as a whole can duplicate past performances of the otner gridiron representatives. "Lucky" Howard and McGay were emt la their new uniforms and took part In all of the drilling. Howard spent most of his time In getting the new signals and running with passes as the Indiana star will In all probability be set for the high ones, should the passing game be resorted to. McGay. who has been laid up for a week and a half with a bad ankle is in form again, and Is expected to show some real offensive power In the gamewlth Rock Island. To start the season without scoring, with the added humiliation of traveling a few hundred miles without playing is rather a stinger to the team and their hundreds of followers, but all that Is being forgotten. A successful invasion of Rock Island will put the clan in a Very different mood, and the fans would salve all the wounds of the first performance. The Rock Island team which has played professional football for years has but four defeats checked up against it and in their first two starts this season they have been able to score a total of 64 points in the first gam. They won easily from the Springfield Giants, while last Sunday they put it over on the Cornell Hamburg of Chicago to the tune of 21 to 0. In the Rock Island line-up are several players who have made Camp's mythical eleven. Sid Henry, who was a star at
Louisiana, is the captain or the Illinois eleven and it is said that the southern select is the best open field runner that ever was developed around the MasonDixon line. Owner Tarduhn of the Hammond club is trying to charter a special car for the trip as it is expected that over 200 rooters will accompany his team, but thus fr no favorable word has been received as to getting the special.
WILDLY CONFIDENT Gleason is Absolutely Sure Now of Getting the World JSeries in Today's Game.
" J3T PRANK a. XENXE STrr CORRESPONDENT I. N. SERVICE CHICAGO. Oct. 9. A wildly Joyous ovation greeted the White Sox on their
return to the old home town today. And 1 rich do they deserve it. for their rallies! in Cincinnati have lifted the in-! habitants of tks bailiwick from the!
depths of Monday night's despair almost to the heights of baseball happiness. The Jeers of Monday night's departure have changed to frenzied cheers; the scoffing of three days ago has been twisted into laudation. And those who predicted ultimate triumph for the Sox jn the world's series, but who lost practicaly every vestige of hope after Monday's clash, now are shouting. "I told you so;" For Chicago Is Arm in Its new found conviction that the "comeback" of the men of Gleason. which started Tuesday will carry then along irresistibly and that when the titular battling of 1919 is done, it still can be said: "No white Sox team ever lost a world's championship." And as it is with the fans, so It 13 with the Sox.
"I said that if we could beat the Reds on Wednesday, we'd go right through to the championship and 'my prediction is coming through." exclaimed the Jubilant Kid GleaE?n. "When the breaks went against the Reds on Tuesday when they lost thel rmonopoly on them I had a hunch that it was going to be cuckoo for them. "They cracked Wednesday; their four errors showed that. And they couldn't do any of the hitting in pinches. They didn't show the old time spirit. Why? Oh. because we've sort of got their little goat. And we'll get them some more today. The Sox are back in their old stride again hitting like fiends ard fielding like the great ball players they are. "So. it's good night Cincinnati." Which mere'y brings a smile from Pat Moran and these words: "We've still got the Jump on those Sox and with Kiler ready to kick them into the discard. Hod stood them on their heads Monday and Hod will repeat. That'll finish things. But even we should lose, that wouldn't end the series as it would if the Sox went down. We have a one-game edge on them, and that'3 the biggest edge in the world with only two games to go. "We haven't had an awful lot of luck during the past two games either. The Goddess of fortune has been too busy passing out her smi!s to the Sox. But
she's due to glance in our direction today." Chicago's idea that the Cincinnati club has "cracked" is at variance with the opinion of the non-partisan folks. And the concensus of their opinion is that the men of Pat Moran surely will deliver to Cincinnati the world's championship banner it so covets. True, the Reds were handed a dual beating but in only one contest were they outclassed. Their folly their over-confidence their fatal carelessness lost for them on Tuesday Just at a time when they had the title apparently clinched. Only the stupidity of un
derestimating the possible rallying power of the Sox only the utter absurdity of thinking that tli.lr's was a lead far too great to 1- overcome whipped them in the sixth tombat. But though beaten hack twice in succession, the Keels haven't lost spirit nor have they been routed. They arc still full of tight ami enthusiasm sti.l figure that they will be the victors in the clash And th. y have it all fiKurid out that today with a spell of 1 k coming their way. with l'ller In themc nn l with all of their systems emptied of "boners" of h -id ami hand by Tuesday's and Wednesday's defeats, they are golns: to st'irm their way along for nine innings and reach the goal of their ambition at the end. Tickets for this afternoon's combat were placed on sal" almost immediately after the game of Wednesday endd. Karlv purchases Indicated a crowl of at least 30.(100 for the eighth affair. And it wis certain that every man, woman and child who trekked along to Vr..lskey pnrk did It n Itii but one thought In mini? : "To create a tumult and shouting designed to crack the Reds and so permit :he Sox to plunge through the gaps for ,'tnother victory."

"We have been truck owners and truck users for many years. We have in the past used many different kinds of truck tires. Our experience is that from the standpoint of economy and service Goodyears are not to be surpassed. In this business it is necessary for us to make long heavy hauls over some of the roughest roads in this section of the country. The equipment which we now have has gone about 10,500 miles and as yet we can see no sign of the necessity to get new tires. For many years past we have been satisfied users of Goodyear Tires and our reason for choosing them is based on experience." F. T. Carlson, Inlander & Steindler
THE choice of the best possible tire for their work was not left to chance or theory by Inlander & Steindler. They tried many tested them rigidly and now state that the combination -of Goodyear Truck Tires and Goodyear Service offers utmost assurance of satisfaction. Lowest tire cost per mile was the result sought and to get this required not only a superior tire but a superior service. Inlander & Steindler found both in Goodyear. Goodyear Service Station work begins with an Lake County Automobile Supply Co.

After application the purpose of the Service Station is to inspect the tires constantly to obviate conditions which may handicap them. Call us up let us analyze your hauling costs with the idea of reducing them there is no obligation. A conference will be of big interest to both of us surely profitable to you.
