NIGHTS FORM -DK7LH6 CLUBS FOR THIS YEAR Well, boys, It's just about the proper time to get your arms la shape for , the bowling contests that will be pulled oft here this autumn and winter, tor the bowling alley keepers are applying the scrapers and sandpaper and there is talk of forming two leagues. Tonight the Knights of Columbus will meet and captains will be ap- ' pointed for six teams that will play at the City bowling alleys on Monday, Wednesday and Friday nights. The meeting will be held at the K. of C. club rooms. . , The formation of the City league is also underway and the men interested In this league are requested to report at the City alleys as soon as possible. With the Kaysees bowling three nights a week, it will leave but two nights for the Commercial league, and

it is necessary that they get busy immediately if they are going to play this year, for there are others negotiating for the use of the alleys. -' Arrangements have been made by The - Palladium to get the scores of every game rolled and the averages of every player will be published. TEAMS STAGE FIGHT FOR THIRD POSITION This afternoon the Kaysees . . and Kremos will meet at Athletic park and: a battle for third place in the Commercial league will be .staged. Last night the Bankers and Press were to have played oft a postponed game, but the Bankers were too busy to get oif, so the game was postponed to a later date. The game this afternoon will mean much-to both teams,, so far as their standing in the league is concerned, and the boys will exert themselves. All players are urged to report at the ground promptly at 5 o'clock as it is the desire of the managers to play as many innings as possible. There has been a good deal of kicking about the short number of innings played and many managers claim that their teams w6uld have won had the games gone the full nine innings. GAME CANCELLED. The Oxfords of Dayton -have cancelled ' the game scheduled for next Sunday with the Richmond team, but Manager Vigran will probably book the Dayton Independents in their place. The Independents have beaten the Oxfords once this season and -are carded as a strong aggregation. RUN SPECIAL CARS. The Carl Hagenbeck-Wallace circus is billed to be here Sept. 16, and the railroads will run special trains from adjacent towns. If

GIANT MACHINE WON PENNANTS UNDER TRAINER

NEW YORK, Sept 1. Has It ever occurred ' to you that Wilbert Robin son was one of the main reasons for the pennant winning accomplishments of the Giants machines in 1911, 1912 and 1913? Here are a few young facts .that you can absorb, if you wish: Somewhere along in 1909 Komn-1 son began to coach the Giant twirlers in his odd moments, in 1910 he went to the training camp with the New York outfit but didn't do any regular coaching during the season.- - The Giants played fine baseball in . 1909 and 1910 but the pitchers didn't go strong enough to win a pennant. In 1911, however, Robinson became the regular coach of the Giant pitchers. He worked day after day with the youngsters. And in 1911 . the Giants won a pennant. In 1912 with Robinson holding down the coaching job they won another and in 1913 they won the third pennant in a row. The reason for the victorious.. battling of the Giants was that the pitchers showed up in grand form. It was in 1911 that Marquard once as wild as a cannibal island chieftain, pitched throughout the season for an average of .774. In Marquard, coaches by Robinson, won 19 straight. In 1913 Tesreau joined the Giants.He too was wild, but Robinson tamed him and developed him into one of the greatest pitchers in the league. And Robinson kept Marquard in line for a pitching average around .700. "Al" Demaree joined the Giants in 1913, was turned over to Robinson for training and quickly burst forth as the pitching sensation of the National League, finishing the season with an average of .786. Robinson quit the Giants in the fall of 1913 and became manager of the Dodgers when the 1914 season opened. What happened? The Giant pitching Btaff, in 1914, without Robinson's coaching went to pieces in mid-season. Marquard who had pitched for a grand average of .771 during the three, years that Robinson coached him, cracked in 22 distinct places and finished the 1914 season with an average of .353. winning only 12 games out of 34. Demaree, the 1913 sensation, flivered, winning only 10 Of the 27 games in which he worked and finally was traded to the Phillies. The 1915 season finds the Robinsonless Giant pitchers still floundering and worse than ever. : Tesreau is erratic, Marquard is pitching weird base ball and none of the Giant youngsters although they show a lot of natural stuff, have been able- to deliver. The Giant pitching staff's wobbliness has been the prime cause of the downfall of the one time peerless outfit. Remakes Pitchers. Robinson took charge of the Dodgers when it had a pitching staff that hanked as one of the punkiest in any league. That was in the . springtime of 1914. And right now the Dodger pitching staff ranks as one of the best in any league. What's the answer? "Hassen" Pfeffer was wild and erratic when Robinson took him in' tow.

BY THE OLD SPORT

Folks, fans and others interested, gather Around and lets have a little chat today. Its a clack that when we get together the subject 16 bound to be sports of one kind or another, so today well take up a large part of the field and have one that might be called a really trully, confidential heart to heart talk. Let'ss ebatter a moment or. so about the Saturday Afternoon league as a starter and we'll take up the other matters in a short time. With the Vlgrans and Natcoa tied for first place it looks like a battle royal and may the spoils go to the winner whoever it may be. - Season Ends Sept. 11. The magnates have positively declared that the season will close on September 11 and they mean what they say. This leaves but six games to be played and the winner of the pennant deserves the honors for it has been a hard fought struggle all the way and you can take your choice. - There is quite an interesting battle in this same league for third place but either the A. S. M. or the Ad -Hill's have a chance, there being but one game separating them and again there is no choice. Tailenders Fight. - - For the honor of finishing last in the league there is no particular serious engagement for the position although . neither " Eaathaven . or Den Worths are anxious to wind up the season in so Inglorious a manner,, so It would appear that they will fight just as hard as any of the leaders to get out of the rut. This is sure to make the few games yet to be played inter esting and it appears from present in dlcations as though some good base ball will be furnished the fans. There is another Interesting sStto going on in the Commercial league and there will'be some interesting doings in that quarter if present plans do not miscarry. Every manager is making an effort to strengthen his team and as there are still a number of games to be played it is . hard to pick the winner. Either Penney or the Bankers - have the pennant won. Again it is a matter of choice which you like best. - . Keep Plana Hid. Plans for basketball and football are underway but both seasons are some ways off and the managers hesitate about divulging their plans. . - Of more interest at this time is the proposal of C. O. Parker to bold an acquatic meet at Hawkins lake, this AMERICAN ASSOCIATION Won. Lost. Pet.
