GAMES TODAY Peoria at Grand Rapids. Fort Wayne at Muskegon. Evansville at Springfield. By DON WARFEL There are fans, and there are knockers. Both witnessed the exhibition contest at Exhibition park Thursday afternoon between the Chicago Cubs and the Richmond Central leagaers. The fans saw the muddy field, the difference in the class of the two teams, and the fact that the Quakers knocked in six earned runs. The knockers, on the other hand, saw Crouch miss two fly balls by about a foot, saw Donica misjudge a fly after he had floundered around In the muck for some time; they saw Goldie Rapp throw a ball Into the bleachers and let In two runs, but they failed to see that Goldie make p. hard stop and that he slipped as he threw the ball. Ah, Here's Score To the fans, who took everything into consideration, it was a fair exhibition, but to the knockers, it was a iotten contest because the score was 12 to 8, Cubs. . After the entire morning had been spent in getting the diamond in condition for play, the game started with mud ankle deep every place where there was no grass, except on the batters and pitchers' box. Evers started the Cubs scoring in the second round. Joe became too anxious to show his ability before the majors and dropped an easy throw from Rellley that could have put the side out with a double play. After this one error, three singles in a row brought in three runs and in the next Inning an earned run was made on a double and a single. Quakers Have One Round The Quakers had their turn, and In one big round, in which singles and doubles were well mixed with passes and sacrifice flies, the bush leaguers scored six earned runs. The sixth round proved to be the undoing of Alnsworth and the downfall of the Quakers. Eleven men faced Alnsworth In that tig round, and nine of them hit safely before Kilduff was caught off second for the final out. After that PlUett was sent in for Richmond and the Cincinnati recruit held the visitors without a score for the remainder of the game.

Maurice Schick performed well before his big boss from Chicago in the game Thursday. Schick presented all of his wares in the hitting line. He walked the first time, hit the second, with a man on base, flew out the third, fanned the fourth, and grounded the fifth. All to the benefit of Mr. Schick, who showed that he could play ball. . A strange stunt was pulled In that game, and It's a bet that very few, if any Richmond fans ever saw it pulled before. Kilduff, in that mighty round, hit out two two-base hits in one inning. How many times have you seen it done? Doyle and Mann, two of the big men of the club, were out of the game. What would have happened in that round if they had been there to help things go! Goldie Rapp created a favorable impression in the eyes of the major leaguers by his work Thursday. Rapp made two brilliant stops of hard driven ground balls, and his two errors were partly due to the poor condition of the ground. The Central league umpire that had been hired for the game failed to show up, and Wilson, of the Cubs and Grover Young, of the Quakers, officiated. Grand Rapids is now out of danger of being overtaken, and the Black Sox are the undisputed champions of the Central league for the 1917 season. Essick's men are now nine and a half full games out in front and with only
