QUAKER SQUAD IS THE LIGHTEST INTESTATE Coach Lewis' Bantamweights

Average Less Than Lightest in I. C .A. L.

160;

"With only two men on the squad that will tip the scales for more than 170 pounds, Earlham college is supporting one of the lightest football team, if not the lightest team in the I. C. A. L. The average -weight of the entire squad for this season is 155 pounds, or a fraction under. The weights of the men were taken by Coach Lewis before the practice session Friday night, and of the entire squad, Gordon and Osborne were the only men that weighed above 170 pounds. Gordon weighed in at 174 pounds and Osborn took the heaviest figure, at 1S6 pounds. Both of these men are on the line. Hadiey and Bookout weighed under 145 pounds, and H. Mills was the lightest man on the line, with 142 pounds. The average weight of the line is 139 pounds. The back field of the Quaker- squad averages 150 pounds. Pitts, who is now working at halfback, is the heaviest man on the squad, weighing 168 pounds. Clark Js the lightest, tipping the beam at 134 pounds. The varsity backfield weighs more than the 150 mark, but with injuries to several of the players, Coach Lewis may be forced to use some of the scrubs in the remaining games this season. Following are the weights of the arsity squad as given out by the coach: H. Mills. 142; Calvert, 160; Johnson, 165; Osborne, 186; Bookout, 145; Gordon, 147; Hadiey, 145; Snyder 145; Jessup, 159; Titsworth, 152; Pitts 168; Brown, 162; Hoerner, 144; Clark, 134.

New Boss of Yankees

No Chance For Yale Varsity This Season

NEW HAVEX, Conn., Oct. 27. A formal statement by Dr. A. E. Brides, coach of the Yale freshman football team, made it definitely known today that all idea of a Yale informal eleven and of games with Harvard or Princeton had been abandoned. "There will be no games, informal or otherwise, between Harvard and Yale or Princeton and Yale this year," said Dr. Brides' statement. The reason given is that the chief attention of the men is being given to military work, so there is no time to develop a team. This situation will not affect the games between the freshmen elevens of the universities.

Paltry $10,000 is a Refused by Hug gins

ST. LOUIS, Mo. Oct. 27. President Branch Rickey of the St. Louis Nationals said he offered Miller Huggins, who yesterday signed a contract to manage the New York Americans, a salary of $10,000 a year and 10 per cent of all profits over $25,000, if he would remain with St. Louis next season. "I assume that Huggins is getting something better that this from New York," President Rickey said. "We have expected this move, but we have not signed any one to take Huggins' place as manager. - I do not expect to make any announcement for some time."

Rain Causes Delay in Uniontown Races

UNIONTOWN, Pa., Oct. 27. Automobile races, including the annual autumn classic of 150 miles, scheduled to be held on the Uniontown speedway today have again been postponed and will be held next Monday. Unsuitable weather conditions are responsible for the change in date.

QUIT MEAT IF YOUR KIDNEYS ACT BADLY

Take tablespoonful of Salts If back

hurts or Bladder both

Drink lots of water

We are a nation of meat eaters and our blood is filled with uric acid, says a well-known authority, who warns us to be constantly on guard against kidney trouble. The kidneys do their utmost to free the blood of this irritating acid, but become weak from the overwork; they get sluggish; the eliminative tissues clog and thus the waste is retained in the blood to poison the entire system. When j-our kidneys ache and feel like lumps of lead, and you have stinging pains in the back or the urine is cloudy, full of sediment, or the bladder is irritable, obliging you to seek relief during the night ; when you have severe headaches, nervous and dizzy spells, sleeplessness, acid stomach or rheumatism in bad weather, get from your pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast each morning and in a few days your kidneys will act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush

and stimulate clogged kidneys, to neu-; tralize the acids in urme so it is no i longer a source of irritation, thus end- j ing urinary and bladder disorders. I Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot injure ; makes a delightful eff ervescent lithia-water drink, and nobody can make a mistake by taking a little !

occasionally to keep the kidneys clean end active.

NEW YORK, Oct. 27. Miller Huggins, for some seasons manager of the St. Louis Cardinals, has been signed to manage the New York Yanks next season. Huggins will take the place of Wild Bill Donovan, whose dismissal had been forecasted hereabouts for some while and who is likely to manage a minor league crew next year. Just what price the little St. Louis boss has agreed to work for has not been announced, but a reasonable rumor is about that says he will get nothing less than $12,000 per season. Huggins has made a large hit in building up a real ball team in St. Louis out of the most ordinary material. He has worked for club owners who refused to cdme across with the price for real big league players and the result was that Huggins had to drill big league ball into the men he had. When Branch Rickey with some associates bought out the Cardinals and gave Huggins a little change to sDend it made a great difference and the team hopped right up to the front of the race. The Cardinals looked like pennant winners in the middle of the season and landed in third place at the close, which was more than had ever happened to them before. Going over to the American league will make things seem a bit strange to Huggins, who has spent his whole big league life 1n the National. He joined the Cincinnati Reds in 1903 and played there till 1910, when he went to the Cardinals. He was appointed manager of the Cardinals in 1912, but continued in the line-up till last season. Huggins has said thr.t he has no particular plans just now as to how he will reconstruct the Yanks, though it's probable that he will do guite a bit in that way. Bill Donovan will leave some excellent material for Huggins to work with, but it's to be hoped that he doesen't leave the traditional jinx that has hovered over the Yanks for some while. In parting with Donovan, President Ruppert has said that it has caused him more distress than anything in his baseball exneriencp. onBM.iw a

Donovan and Ruppert were the best

Us - 'i!M5'

sort of friends. Moreover there's no denying that Donovan played in hard luck' right along and his dismissal is no discredit to his baseball brains. Things had reached the point where Yank fans demainded some sort of a change and everyone hopes they will now be satisfied.

' Huggins is the ninth boss the Yanks have had since the club was organized. The others were Griffith, Elberfield, Stallings, Chase, Wolverton, Chance, Peckinpaugh and Dovonvan. 1

HAGERSTOWN: IS-.' QUAKER VICTIM

HAGERSTOWN, Ind., Oct 27. Guy Pontius and his Earlham Freshmen proved too strong for the Hagerstown Independent basketball team in the game here Friday night,' and the Freshmen won, 47 to 17.

Duffy Lewis Is one ball player who was surprised that Swede Risberg was not in the thick of the fight for tho White Sox. "Swede certainly played wonderful ball all season against us," says the Red Sox star outfielder. "In every series that we stacked up against him he would turn in fielding plays that were wonderful. ' He was hitting the ball hard, but many times it was on a line into someone's hands. "This boy Fred McMullin must not be overlooked, however. He gave a good account of himself in the series, and it is a matter or record that the fellows who get in the game at the last minute always pull off some sensational stuff. Risbergs admirers should not feel discouraged over the fact that fce played the bench, for he made good this year beyond a;shodow of doubt, and there would not be a chance of getting him out ot the American league. " William H. H. Titus of the Philadelphia Swimming club has won the handsome mileage cup annually offered by the organization to its members who enter the competition during the six months' outdoor racing in the Schuyklll river at Lafayette, a few mjlcs above Philadelphia, Titus covered over 100, miles, earning in addition to the cup a gold medal. He finished fourth in the club's five-mile marathon swim. He is thirty-six years of age. Football is likely to flourish at all the cantonments of the national army this fall. In each of the big training camps over the country the call has gone out for gridiron equipment and the men are putting time in on learning to play together. All the liberty army divisions contain many former gridiron players.

It doesn't seem long since Charley "Red" Dooin was one of big league baseball's most popular figures and one of its best players as well, but

time passes on and now Dooin Is unable to hold a fair job in semi-pro baseball. He was released recently by a semi-pro team playing around Philadelphia for his inability to hit In 1911 Charley hit.328 for. the Phillies but his hitting thereafter was never any too heavy though he was one of the best backstops in fast company. If worse comes to worst "Red" can always earn a living singing as he has the easiest voice to listen to of any ball player you could mention and made a fair hit in vaudeville some se asons ago. Harry Pollok, who managed Freddy Welsh while Freddy was a figure in the fight game, declares that the oxchamp has few worries even though he Isn't taking In the big purses any more. Freddy has saved up quite a pile, says Pollok, and is making a nice income from his health farm down in New Jersey. In addition to this ho is reported to have oil interests in Kentucky that bring in quite a pretty penny. Welsh reports a boom In Kentucky oil and in fact is real pleased with his circumstances. The national commission has warned the American and National league players not to play in any post-season games, reminding them that this sort of thing 13 prohibited and that it says so in their contracts. Any players who have been guilty this fall will be stung harder than those of last season, because they have had proper warning. Last season they were warned and fined, but many of the fines were later lifted. It is considered that they should all know better by this time and so there'll be no such liberality. Two veterans of the big show are stepping out and, as Jack Coombs

Earlham Net Doubles on College Courts Three teams were eliminated in the mixed doubles tennis tournament at Earlham college on the college courts Thursday evening. Although this Is the first time in the history of the college that both the men and girls have participated in one tournament much interest Is being shown among the students as to the outcome of the tourney and there is much speculation as to who will be the probable winners. ' In Thursday's play, Furnas and Haworth showed the best form, beating their opponents, Horner and Smith, 6-0 and 6-1. None of the matches required more than two games to determine the winner, although deuce sets were played in two of the series. Bacon and Bradley were unable to complete their set with Clark and Hoerner, although they won the first set 6-1. Glass and Brown won from Winslow and Carter, 6-4 and 8-6 and

says, "Into the dark they all go." The Brooklyn Dodgers have given an unconditional release to both Jack Meyers and Mike Mowrey, who have served in the fast show for many years. The Chief came into the big league ball with the Giants in 1909 and a fair price was reported to have been paid for him. Mowrey began with the Cincinnati Reds in 1906 and Is one of the rare ones who have managed to keep active in big league ball for more than ten years. It is probable that Indian Meyers will be with the St Louis Browns next season, though he will not be used much in the regular line-up.
