S. A. L ENDS SEPTEMBER 11 RAIN OR SHINE Managers Oppose Playing Championship Game on Sunday and Charging Admission to Supporters. A meeting of the S. A. L. was held last night at the Y. M. C. A. with President George Brehm in the chair. There was considerable discussion as to whether a Sunday game should be played and admission charged in case the Vigrans and Natcos tie for the championship, and it was decided that, as the league is a Saturday afternoon league and had been supported by the public as such, that it would not be fair to the public to deprive them of seeing the big game of the season without compelling them to pay their way. It was also decided that the season would be closed on September 11, whether it rains or not every Saturday between now and then. The banquet will be held some" time in Octobei-at the Y. M. C. A. A committee to look after the affair was appointed. President Brehm selected Sam Vigran, H. H. Puckett and Ray Stevens.

SPORTS OF ALL SORTS

BY THE OLD SPORT

Two months ago the Chicago fans!

were sure that they'd have the both entries in the world series battles. A month ago they decided they'd be satisfied with one. But now well, a sudden depression has settled upon Chicago's fandom.

From out. of the graveyard of pugilism, emerges one Abe Attell. who throws off his shroud, announces to the world that he's as good as 'any featherweight in the game today, and now spends his days hobbling from one promoter to another in quest of bouts.

Joe McCahey is 27 years old, he's been a jockey for 10 years, and yet he seems to be a more wonderful rider than earlier in his youth. And he weighs only 95 pounds. McCahey is the Honus Wagner of the turf game. The average life of a jockey ranges from 5 to 10 years, yet here is McCahey, after ten years of service, performing in better style than at any time in his career. If he maintains until the end of the season the winning average so far established, he will bring home for his employers more than he did in 1914 when his 824 mouths won $121,845. The Golfers Magazine informs its readers that "it is reported" that a chap named Ernest Williams, of the Sale Club, playing over that course,

did these wondrous things: On October 17th. 1914, he did the 1st hole (200 yards) In one. On February 7th, 1915, he did the same at the 17th hole (140 yards), and "one April loth he only took one stroke for the 6th 171 yards. Bat Nelson wishes to inform all friends and otherwise that this month marks his 19th anniversary as a pugilist and that he has a message for Freddie Welsh which reads as follows: "If you'll give me a fight. Freddie. I'll guarantee to beat you over a 20. 23, 40 or 45 round route or I won't take a dollar for my work." Ever since the Dodgers moved up into the select circles of the National League the denizens of Brooklyn have become so proud and haughty that they utterly ignore the existence of the poor humans who live on Manhattan Island which is represented or supposed to be by a squad of unskilled workmen known as the Giants.
