STUPP GIVES GAME

TO STARS IN FIRST Shortstop Fails to Retire Fed Runners, Smashing Richmond's Chances. COBLENTZ SCORES RUN Utrecht Pitches Clean Consistent Contest and Old Eli Behaves Well. BY CHALMER MUTCHNER. Indianapolis, 5; Richmond, 1. Failure on the part of Stupp to handle the ball, in the style necessary in a real ball game when there la a double play to be pulled off, gave yesterday's contest to Indianapolis in the first Inning and sadly marred what otherviso would have been one of the most interesting exhibitions the fans of this city have had an opportunity to see for a long time. This failure to retire two Indianapolis runners, with one man already out, was followed by a smashing triple by Tiemeyer, the All-Star Ked .360 slugger, scoring two runs. Tiemeyer scored a moment later on a single by Rohe. Richmond marked her only run in the third inning, when Coblentz was hit by the pitcher, and Utrecht walked. Coblentz scored on a Texas leaguer, and Utrecht was out on the next play, being tagged at the plate in endeavoring to score from second on Clarke's single to right. Make Earned Run. The Feds got their only earned run in the sixth, when Jones hit safely, was advanced to second and scored on e long hit by Derringer. Indianapolis scored again in the ninth. Kunkle, the first man up, walked, was advanced to second by Moore, and scored on Cate's single to right. Kaiser was out on a foul tip, and Cates was thrown out on a fielder's choice. Richmond lost a chance to mark up another one in the fourth inning when with two men out and a man on second and third, Utrecht contented himself with a pop-up fly, retiring the side. Again in the eighth with men on the third and second cushions and two out, Dahl was out on a called third strike, which looked to many in the grandstand like a ball. In the last half of the ninth the locals were able to do little toward pulling the game out of the ire. Slarp flew out, Coblentz reached first on an error, stole second, and then by clever base running, reached the third sack, where he roosted while Utrecht struck out. Meyers made the last out of the game by hitting an easy roller to Rohe. Feds Better Hitters. The visitors slightly outhit the locals, getting seven hits while Richmond was only able to dish up a even half-dozen. Richmond was extremely unlucking in scoring men on bases, the elusive Eli sewing them up in pinches, and sever runners perished miserably, while only five Feds suffered similar neglect. Utrecht pitched a clean, consistent Came throughout, and with proper support in the first, inning would have pitched Cates a tight race throught the nine Innings. Eli was compelled to extend himself in only a few instances, taking things easily the greater portion of the trip. Utrecht held base runners well up, when they were running wild with Cates in the box. The Richmond moundman will be seen next season in the uniform of the Chicago Cubs, hav ing signed a contract a few weeks j Hgo. He pitched an unusual season for Champaign this year, winning 11 out of 10 games started in the Illinois league. Rohe Plays Well. Rohe, whose bright star scintillated for a few brief days in the world's championship series betwen the Cubs and the White Sox, and then dimmed almost as suddenly as it flamed forth, tilaved an.excellent game at first, ac cepting 12 chances without an error, j and getting two clean hits, one of j them netting a run. j Ideal weather, the prospects of a good game, and an increased interest in baseball, due to the approach of the world's series, brought out a very good crowd, 1,100 fans turning out. CLnlMlSlPIONSHIP Owls Want Series of PostSeason Games. On the grounds that they have won eighteen out of twenty games played this season, the Richmond Owls, j through their manager, Orello Clapp, j claim the amateur championship of j Wayne county. 1 The Richmond Senators nave also claimed the title, and it is probable that some post-season games may be played in this city to decide where the honor belongs. The Owls have challenged the Senators, and a series of games may be arranged at once. Hawekotte, the star flinger of the Owls, has hurled eighteen victories this season, allowing a total of "2 bits. FIELD GOALS The H. Northwest has come to the rescue of Yale. Tom Shevlin's new formation play, which was tried for the first time yesterday in secret practice, was pronounced by the coaches to be a great success. They are lustily guarding the make-up. - Guernsey will be continued at halfback on the Blue team until the return of Pumpelly. r So fast Is the scrub eleven at Cornell becoming that the suggestion has been made that it take the place of the varsity squad. Fullback Shelton of the first team is doing star work In the scrimmage with his dodging and long runs.

BACK FIELD STRONG Quakers Elated Over Wa bash's Poor Showing. Earlham football practice probably will take on added impetus this week not only on account of the game with St. Mary's next Saturday, but also be cause of learning of the defeat of Wa bash by Purdue last Saturday by the one-sided score of 25 to 0. The Earlham players also are de veloping better confidence in themselves and are showing good results from the assistance given them by Mr. Bruner, Friday and Saturday. The practice Saturday consisted mainly in running down punts and making line formations. Coach Reagan is giving a great deal of attention to line formations and he hopes to develop a machine little short of a battering ram. ' July" Bogue is showing up with his usual "pep." Mr. Bogue made the statement Sat urday night that the back field proba bly will be one of the strongest Earl ham has had for several years. It probably will be made up of Bowen, Thornton, Williams and Bogue, although no definite lineup has been announced yet. The various positions as they have been trying out have been mainly the following: Lewis. Center; Lamb, right guard; Hill, left guard; Thistlethwaite, right tackle; Semler, left tackle; J. Stanley, right end; Woodgate, left end. OWLS DEFEAT LYNN Locals Get Big End of 7 to 2 Score. LYNN, Ind., Oct. 6. The local constellation of baseball stars sunk to mere asteroids in the eleventh inning of yesterday's game with - the Richmond Owls, when Oler, the local hurler, lost his grip, permitting the balloon to soar skyward. When the as cent was over, the Owls had hammer-1 ed in five runs, winning the game, by the score of 7 to 2. The locals scored their runs in the seventh inning, when Ryan missed a long fly.

E PREDICTS ANOTHER VICTORY Says That Athletics Will Once More Take the Championship. PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 6. "I fully expect to win the big series " said Connie Mack, breaking a silence of weeks and making his first definite prediction about the results of the games. "New York is credited with having a better pitching staff, but I cannot see the logic of that argument. I have two first class veterans in Bender and Plank. I don't want a better pitcher than Bender. There may be some who can stand harder work during the season, but there is none who can do better work. "I only use Bender in important games, games that I must win, and he wins those kind of games for me. Ben der was thirty years old last March, which means he is still in his prime. "Plank may be older in years, but he hasn't pitched as many seasons as Mathewson. Mathewson is a grand pitcher, but we took his measure In 1911, and also Marquaru's measure. It is said that we can't hit Tesreau or Demaree, but that is a matter of spec ulation. Tesrau did not help the Giants much last fall in the games with the Red Sox. Demaree is an unknown quantity in a big series. We might reply by saying that the Giants will not be able to hit Shawkey, Bush, Houck and Brown. "Of my youths Shawkey and Bush will very likely see service in the big games. Considering the whole situation, I do not see where the Giants have any more strength in the box than we have. "The speed, dash, brains and bat ting and fielding skil lof the Athletics can't be denied. They are serene in mind and think no more of the coming series than they do of one of the championship season. I never mingled with cooler propositions. Not a one is worrying. "Every man is physically fit. If we lose the series we can't offer any alibis. But I don't think we will lose. We have too much strength to be beaten by the Giants, good as the latter are. EXCHANGE BLOWS Willie Ritchie, lightweight champion who squirmed out of his bout with Freddie Welsh, the British champion scheduled for September 20 in Vancouver, B. C, declares he was willing to meet Welsh any time and at any place, provided it is before a reputable club. Have Been Signed. Articles for a ten-round bout on Thursday nigut between Gunboat Smith, "white hope destroyer" and Carl Morris, the Mastodon heavyweight, who is trying to do a "come back" as a "hope" after suffering a large number of defeats in the last two years. Chicago Knockout Brown has signed articles to battle Marty Rowan in St. Ixiuis, ten rounds on October 14. The victor is to get Billy Papke. Joe Rivers, western lightweight, is matched to box ten rounds with Frankie Russell in New Orleans on the night of October 28. , GERSEL M UMPIRE Central League Man Probably Will Be Here. Feeling the need of an experienced man to officiate as umpire when the home team is playing high calibre opponents who would not hesitate to deceive an unsophisticated "umps" by yanking a ball around so that it has all the ear marks of a strike save the essential requirements of location, the local management will have an experienced man to call them out next Sunday when the All Star Professionals come here for the last game of the local season. Harry Gersel, who umpired this season in the Central league will probably officiate next Sunday. The All Stars defeated the Kokomo Red Sox yesterday by a score of 4 to 2. Ownie Bush was the star of the game, getting four hits out of five times at bat. PA ATD ATI O rrTT7'Cl West. Chicago, 21; Indiana, 7. Purdue 25; Wabash, 0. Olivett, O; Michigan Aggies, 26.

Another bet of $300 even that the combined score of the first day's game would be odd was made.

In the middle ages people recognized witches and possessed persons by seeking on their bodies for what was called the claw of the devil. It was a more or less extensive part of the skin In which the subject was insensible to any touch or prick. The expert intrusted with this work would close the eye of the subject and. armed with a sharp needle, prick here and there the different parts of the body. The sufferer was to answer with a cry to each prick, and the claw of the devil on a certain spot wa recognized from the fact that he did not cry when this spot was examined.
