Fig Leaguers Win 7 to "Vhile Locals Cannot Hit Ball. DA13SS SHOWS SPEED Visitors Give the Richmond Team Two Runs in the Ninth Inning. In an exhibition rather than a ball game, the Indianapolis All-Professionals defeated the Richmond team here yesterday by a score of 7 to 2. The big leaguers held the Richmond bunch runless and almost hitiess until the last half of the ninth, when Dauss, the Detroit American pitcher, handed them up in an indifferent manner, and tne remainder of the team, eemingly impressed with the desirability of letting the locals make a showing in print, went after the resultant hits in an aimless manner, giving Richmond two runs. Stupp and Clark singled through Dolan, who was playing first. Dolan let the hits bound out to center Held instead of going after them. Stupp scored on a short throw to second to catch Clark, who stole. Bush dropping the ball. Dahl got his second hit of the day, scoring Clark. The Richmond infield pulled off two doubles, one of them a particularly pretty one. With Dauss on third and Dush on second, Bauman laid down a nice one to Stupp, who whipped the ball to Clark, heading off Dauss, who had led off third, and getting Bush between second and third. Visitors Score Early. The visitors started the scoring in the first. Bush, first man up, was given a liberal sprinkling of applause from admirers, who remembered him when he played on local diamonds. Bush led off with a hit which was too hot for Stupp to handle. Bauman hit to Stupp, who caught Bush at second, but not in time to complete a double. Dolan drove out a long fly, which Cates falling down, was not able to reach in time to prevent his stretching the hit into a triple, Bauman scoring. In the second inning Pierce reached first on an error, took third on a single by Massing, and scored on a hit by Dauss to center field, Massing taking second. Bush struck out. Bauman hit to center field, Dauss going to second and Massing to third. Dolan hit to left field, scoring both. Hits a Homer. Quissler took a healthy wallop at the ball in the ninth and before it had been relayed back to the catcher he had circled the bases for a home run. Dauss pitched excellent ball when he extended himself and his speed was a revelation to Richmond fans.. Massing at times had his hands full catching him. Utrecht pitched a very good game and was given fairly good support. The Richmond batters were powerless before the swift pitching of Dauss and for the greater portion or the game went out in one, two, three order. The high wind mace the. work of the fielders difficult. Allison, playing in the left garden, took three high one without an error. INDIANAPOLIS.

E HOME IH Local Baseball Club to Open Negotiations With Manager Kenney. Richmond will be represented next year by one of the best baseball teams in her history, if the present plans of the Richmond baseball club materialize. The local management intends to open negotiations in a short time with R. L. Kenney, manager of the West Covington (Ky. ) team to bring his entire team to Richmond for next season. The local baseball club has been handicapped all summer through its inability to secure first-class players. When a man was needed to complete the line-up, one of the players was usually called upon to get one of his friends to fill out the vacancy, and in many cases the manager knew little or nothing about the playing ability of the new man. For this reason it has been decided to hire a manager for next season and let him manage tne team on a percentage basis, having first put up a cash guarantee that he will furnish a high-class team. Several mangers are desirous of bringing teams to Richmond next season, but Kenney sems to be the choice of the majority of the members of the Richmond baseball club. He alway has ben successful in holding together a winning team since 1910. Other managers who would like to locate here, have the reputation of treating their players in an unfair manner, which would promise well for the permanency of any team. The West Covington team is one of the fastest teams in the Blue Grass state, and has won more than 75 per cent of the games it has played this season, defeating the Louisville White Sox, the Madison (Ind.) team and a number of other top-notchers. Should this team be brought to Richmond, it will mean that games will be booked with higher class teams than have usually played here. While Mr. Kenney has not been formally approached with the proposition, it is known that in the two visits the West Covington team has made to Richmond, Manager Kenney has been favorably impressed by the city as a baseball town. The West Covington team in the two games played here this summer, made an excellent showing, defeating fae Richmond team 7 to 1 and 5 to 1. MOTORCYCLE NOTES ! Another item has been added to the long list of uses made of the motorcycle in police work this time the two-wheeler being used to capture violaters of the law on the water. Up on Lake Minnetonka. Minn., operators of motorboats have had no fear of beinfi arrested for violating the laws governing the use of lights, as the officers had no boat swift enough to overtake them. Deputy Sheriff Archie Buck now follows along the lake road on his motorcycle until the boat makes a landing. Then he makes the arrest. C. W. Waughop, of St. Louis, one of the newly elected directors of the Federation of American Motorcyclists and also director of the South Central district of the Federation, is making an extensive motorcycle tour of the country. Already he has traveled 11,000 miles, visiting practically ail of the important cities east of the Rockies. Mr. Waughop is at present in Florida but will ride his two-wheeler back to Chicago in time for the motorcycle show in November, anc will then continue on to New York. A four months' motorcycle trip, on which he expects to visit Colorado, Idaho, Wyoming, Yellowstone National Park and parts of Oregon, is being taken by J. M. Karns, of Bartlesville, Okla. Pennsylvania has between 10,000 and 11,000 registered motorcycles. The Birmingham, Ala., Ledger employs a motorcyclist whose business it is to deliver papers to people "who, by any chance, may have been missed by the regular carrier. Fletcher Sliding

OFFICIALS UNAWARE OF RULES OF GAME
Umpire and Referee Give St. Marys' Victory Over Earlham. BOGUE MAKES SCORE Yellow and White Superior to the Visitors in Line Plunges. BY HERBERT EILER. St. Marys, 7; Earlham 6. Evidently the lack of knowledge of the new football playing rules on the part of Referee C. Tranchasst and Umpire C. McCray lost for Earlham the initial contest of the season to the St. Mary's Academy squad by a score of 7 to 6, at Reid Field, Saturday afternoon. The game was a fair demonstration of the college sport. About five hundred students crowded the stands to witness the opening game. Coach Reagan is highly indignant over the treatment rendered by the officials in calling the plays. One miscalled play gave the visitors their only touchdown in the first five minutes of the final quarter. The visitors were defending the goal and were on the twenty-five yard line when Moehring, the big St. Marys punter dropped back for that signal. He hoisted one twenty yards and the ball lit with a heavy thud. Knowing that the play was incomplete, when it was untouched by either an Earlham player or one of the opponents, Capt. Bogue, who was standing ten feet back of the ball, did not take steps to catch the punt. Deaveraux, the visiting end, caught the ball on. the bounce and sprinted twenty yards to the Earlham goal. He kicked goal. Protest Decisions. The decisions of the referee in permitting the ball to be played by St. Mary's end were protested by both Coach Reagan and Capt. Bogue, but the officials would not change the decision. When asked regarding the play the referee declared it was up to the umpire and in turn the umpire shifted the responsibility on the referee. The Yellow and White squad scored their touchdown in the last seconds of the first quarter. Capt. Bogue at quarter went over the line on a skin tackle play to the left after the Earlham backs had advanced the ball half way down the field by a series of brilliant line plunges and cross bucks. Bogue failed to kick goal at the difficult angle. The quarters were marked by many unsuccessful attempts at forward passing by both teams. Repeated fumbling of the ball by the Earlham tackles and ends wrought havoc in the attempts to tear off large gains. Makes Good Run. In the final moments of the first quarter Capt. Bogue caught a punt on tha thirty-five yard line and with a brilliant run around right end placed the pigskin near the ten-yard line. A few line plunges by Trueblood and Bowen placed the ball one yard from the line and then the next play put the Earlham quarterback over the line for the first score. During the next two quarters the two teams sparred with the ball in the St. Marys territory a large part of the time. Once th3 Earlhamites had the ball on the visitors three yard line but an unsuccessful forward pass and a decision from the officials gave the "reds" a touchback. Throughout the four intervals of play the locals had the St. Mary's boys outclassed and five times in the first quarter the Ohio eleven was forced to kick, twice on their own five-yard line. In line plunging the Yellow and White backs were far superior to the onslaught of the St. Marys back field, which used many irregular formations.

This photograph was made in grounds, and shows Oldring sliding on Collins' long single to center. Bogue attempted to place a kick over the north goal but owing to the muddy condition of the field the attempts were unsuccessful. The play ended with the ball on the visitors' twentythird yard line in possession of the Earlham squad. The Quaker boys were penalized many times for offside lines and the visitors received the penalty of being too eager. The game fully showed to Coach Reagan how his men lined up in action. In the early part of the second quarter, Hobbs relieved Calvert at right end but the plucky youngster was not in the game long until he was knocked out. He was relieved by Leonard, who finished the game at that position. In the last moments of the first half Bales, the big guard went in for Fowler. Back Field Excellent. The back field did excellent work and both, Bowen and Trueblood tore big gaps in the visitors' line for large gains in off tackle plays. Williams, the husky fullback was always good for the expected distance. The shifting of the backfield by putting Bogue at quarterback crippled the runners of the Earlham squad. Bogue's ability as a ground gainer is not exceeded in the entire squad. Several times his long quarterback sprints brought the ball out of dangerous territory. The two teams lined up as follows: St. Marys-Broadstone and Hill, left end; Baczenias, left tackle; Moehring, left guard; McMann, center; Kirven, right guard; Knectez, right tackle; Deveraux, right end, captain; Sherry, quarterback; Mahoney, left half; Sacksteder, right half, and Miller, fullback. Earlham Stanley, left end; Semler, left tackle; Lamb, left guard; Lewis, center; Fowler and Bales, right guard; Thistlethwaite, right tackle; Calvert, Hobbs and Leonard, right end; Bogue, quarterback, captain; Trueblood, left half; Bowen, right half and Williams, fullback.
