Hunt Matthews, If rf. Hill Jones, cf c. Gray Anderson, rf cf. Cooney Diffendafer, ss ss. Fitzgibbons Sturm; Elliott," p 3b. Reddinghaus Sullivan, c p. Roop, Mtnner As was expected, Centerville has loaded up in. preparation for Sunday's game with the Quakers. Maxwell and Elliott, two players from CoonersvIIIo, are listed on their line-up. Maxwell is considered one of the best ball players in this section of the country and has played second base for the ConnerBville Reserves all season. He will hold down first base for Centerville, however. Elliott Is the pitcher of the Connenvville Grays, the team beaten by the locals, 2' to 1. and either he or Sturm will hurl for the visitors. Winters and Dlffendaffer are also well known to local fans. Roop will pitch for the Quakers. Hunt, who will be on first has been put in third place of the batting order, and Hill, the. slugger from "Moranville" will occupy the clean-up position. The fans will be kept informed on the Red's two games at St. Louis. STAR-HAGERSTOWN SCRAP SUNDAY WILL INTEREST RICHMOND GAMES SUNDAY. Richmond All-Stars at Hagerstown. Richmond Senators at Greensfork. New Madison at EJdorado: Of the games-to be played near Richmond Sunday, the scrop between the fast Richmond All-Stars and the Hagerstown nine, will have the most interest for local fans. The All-Stars are reputed to be fast, and the showing Hagerstown makes against them will have much to do with HaEerstown securing a game with the Richmond Quakers for the championship of Wayne county. The All-Stars were defeated by Centerville last week, but they expect to beat Hagerstown. Over at Greensfork. a good scrap is promised when the Richmond Senators, with Madge doing the hurling, will clash for the second time this year with the fast Greensfork team. In their last encounter the Senators were victorious, it being the first game Greensfork had lost, but Greensfork hopes Sunday, with Nicholson pitching, for vengeance. For the third time this season, New Madison will play at Eldorado. This game will decide the season for the two teams, as each of them has handed the other a trimming, and Sunday the tie will be played off. THREE LEAGUES, IS PLAN FOR BOWLERS Final arrangements for the coming bowling season will be made at a meeting of the city's bowlers to be held at Twigg's alleys next Wednesday evening, said Phil Twigg, Saturday morning. Two leagues have already asked for reservations for their games, and a third league may be formed. The City league, which will include some of the best in town, has been put under way, and details of the organization will be made next Wednesday. The only other league that has been organized is the K. of C. Each league will have six teams, although there is some chance that an eight team league may start the City season. y. M. C. A. to Enter State 1920 Athletic Events No complete outline for the athletic activities of the Y. M. C. A. has been formed as yet, but plans are under way. As soon as a conference is held with the physical director of the high school, the outline will be given out, K. W. Harding physical director of the "Y", said Saturday morning. Although the "Y" will have no basket ball team playing out of town, there will be several track, swimming and general gymnastic meets held throughout the state, at which the local "Y" will be represented.

JIMMIE RING HAS HARD LUCK AGAIN; LOSES IN 1-0 GAME ST. LOUNS, Sept. 6 Jimmle Ring was given another hard luck defeat in the opening contest of the series between the. Reds and the Cards here yesterday afternoon. After he had held the Cardinals scoreless for seven Innings, a muff by Wingo allowed one a victory, 1 to 0. DOak, the St. Louis hurler, had a run to cross the pan, giving the Cards big day. He failed to strike out a single Red, but all of the latter's efforts were wasted on slow infield I grounders. He worked well in the 1 pinches, and cut off any attempt made by Moran s men to rally. The Reds' defeat did not make any difference In their relative standing in the league, however, as the Giants also lost and the lea.d of seven and a half games enjoyed by Moran's athletes is still good. Brooklyn handed the Giants a 2 to 1 wallop. With eighteen more games to play, the Reds can lose four and win fourteen and clinch the pennant regardless of what the Giants might do. Groh Back in Game Heinie Groh returned to the contest after a week's layoff, and started yesterday's game with a hit. Groh's finger is still causing him considerable trouble. Hank Schreiber, who held down the hot coiner during Groh's absence, was sent back to the bench, after successfully filling Heinie's place last week. Schreiber showed real major league style, both in fielding and hitting, and proved himself to be a valuable addition to the Reds' infield. The Reds play the second game of the series with the Cards this afternoon, and it is probable that two southpaws will do the mound work. Ferdinand Schupp is scheduled to pitch for the Cards, and Slim Sallee is due to work for Moran. The score of Friday's contest: Cincinnati 000 000 000 0 5 2 St. Louis 000 000 Olx 1 7 0 Ring and Wingo; Doak and demons. GROH'S GREAT WORK FEATURE OF RED'S EASTERN BATTLES The showing made by the Cincinnati Reds in the course of their invasion of the east, which ended in Philadelphia recently, commands the respect of even those who were pulling hardest for them to "crack." The test imposed upon them was a severe one, yet they met it in admirable style and registered fifteen victories in eighteen starts. Their eastern campaign was inaugurated in three successive double headers in New York, and as fans know, they copped four of the six games. Moving over to Brooklyn, they took three out of four from the Robins. They then went to Boston and humbled the Braves three times in a row, and going to Philadelphia, made a clean sweep of a series of five games. One of the features of this invasion was the ail around play of Heinie Groh. He didn't do a great deal of hitting against the Giants, but he guarded the far corner in his usual excellent style, and he swatted the ball hard in Brooklyn, Boston and Philadelphia. His most deadly execution was accomplished in the face of the offerings of the Phillies pitchers. In that series he delivered twelve hits, including a home run and two doubles, for a total of seventeen bases in twenty-four trips to the plate.

Mayor Favors Richmond
As Second-Class City, With Reservations "It it will be an economic movement I am for it and for it strong," said Mayor W. W. Zimmerman, when asked for his opinion as to whether Richmond should become a city of the second class. According to the law, a city with a taxable valuation of over $20,000,000 is entitled to become a second class city, and Richmond's val uation for 1920 is approximately $36,000,000. "However, if it is just to create positions for more city officials I am against it. We have to many city officials now. That would mean a higher rate of taxation, which, with the present high cost of living, would be too big a burden to put on the shoulders of the taxpayers." concluded the mayor. GOLD SHIPMENTS LOWER (By Associated Preis) DAWSON, Y. T., Sept. 6. Placer gold shipments from Alaska and Yukon territory camps this year probably will total $6,225,000, according to estimates made by Volney Richmond of Dawson, superintendent of the Northern Commercial company. The figures are lower than the 1918 total. TRAP, GUN AND ROD BY TOM MARSHALL. A constellation of shooting stars! The thirtieth Grand American Handl-

Never was such shooting enthusiasm eviaced -or such galleries in attendance. The spirit of patjjloiiam was injected Into the system Vof every contestant and every spectator. When the-accuracy of i the conteststatement, claiming thatshooting accuracy is 70 per cent sipldier efficiency, to thinking people, reasoning from cause to effect, trapshootlng as a sport, should be encoutraged and substantially endorsed by the general public in America, as is riow being done by our "Canuck" jieighbors, across the boundary, where cities are building shooting lodges 1 - public parks, encouraging the sporfjtfatriotic by very liberal municipal appropriations. ' The Grand American Handicap is the premier shooting event -of the world. A shoot for hooters. Where all local and state "cracker-jack shots" meet each year to try conclusions on elusive "tar-hawks." The finaleof the shooting world, where "survival pf the fittest'.' is the last word in the trap arena. Trapshootlng Is so varied in its different combinations, championships are many, yet all are distinctive to those versed in the art. Wheln a line of sports attracts 846 entries actual contestants, (not chair warmers) hailing from every state in the Union, Canada and foreign countries, this tentry is general endorsement of America's major sport trapshootlng.
