v CINCINNATI, O., April 16. The fsildness of Vaughn, and ragged fielding by the Cubs, presented the Cincy Sleds with the second game of the

fceries, 4 to 3, at Redland Field Thurs-) day attemoon. The Red sluggers could not do much with the, curves of Vaughn, but most any clutf can win when the other makes six errors. The Reds started out to a three-run ; lead, making one in the first on the ; double steal and two In the Becond on ; two hits and two errors. A base on balls and two hits gave the Cubs two runs in the third. They evened the count in the fifth on two hits and a ' sacrifice. Two errors and a walk gave the Reds the winning tally in the eighth. Providing the weatherman does not object, Aldofo Luque will hurl for the Reds in Friday's game and Tyler for the Cubs.

Mowe is athletic director at Earlham, but his authority is disputed by the weatherman. Mowe announces that the inter-class track meet is to be held Friday afternoon, but the weatherman is doing his best to cloud up and rain. Fifty-one candidates have been entered in the meet, and providing Mowe whips the weatherman a fairly accurate line upon Quaker track team members may be gained. Each class has its own particular star, but the Freshies and Juniors seem to have the edge. Carey, Lawler and Tomlinson are counted as sure point-getters. Ray Johnson also is among the list, although the injured knee may prevent him winning. Freshies Have Star The Freshmen have such stars as Dalton, winner of the Indiana high school mile event last, year; Carter, holder of the quarter-mile high school record of New Yt)rk state; Delph, who has been racing Carter in the quarter; Chick Graffis, of pole vault fame; and Thornburg, of the hurdles. The complete entries are: Freshmen Carter, Davis, Hollingson, Dale, Delph, Bobenstein, G. Davis, Goar, Dalton, Higgins. Lemon. Hinshaw, Thornburg, Graffis, E. Baker, L. Davis, Hutchins and Sellers. The Juniors line up as follows: Johnson, Carey, Lawler, Tomlinson, Chambers, Jordan, Elder, Jones Clemons. Coffin. Tietz, Hall, Kamp, Webb and W. Pitts. The Senior team will be: Glass, captain; Collins, Pitts, Hoerner, Whitley. Raiford, Wildman, Kellum, Edwards, Mills, Harris and Webb. The following men will make up the Sophomore team: Ivey, captain; Farquer, Russell, Robinson, Yarnell, Teale, Icemen, Harshbarger, L. Nicholson, Taylor, Stanley and Peasley. TO PLAY BASEBALL Announcement that ' Newcastle and Spiceland are included on the Shortridge baseball schedule, was received from Indianapolis, Friday. Efforts are being made to schedule baseball scraps for Richmond with all three of the above schools.

BASEBALL PROSPECT DAZZLING; MEETING GALLED IN DAYTON After Sunday, league baseball in Richmond may be a reality instead of a very bright prospect. Officials of the Richmond Exhibition company are in receipt of a letter from Joe Carr, organizer of the proposed tri-state league, announcing a meeting in the Phillips Hotel at Dayton Sunday afternoon. Carr explains plans for the organization and is so confident that he suggests that Richmond officials bring along a certified forfeit check. When organized, the league will be the result of work by Richmond men, Joe Carr, president of the proposed I-O league, and Elmer Dickerson, president of the Central league. Both these latter men realized that to insure success, Richmond should be included. As Carr had the best proposition, Dickerson announced his willingness to enter the four bes baseball towns of the Michigan circuit, Muskegon, Grand Rapids, Ludington and Kalamazoo. Eight Clubs, Tentative Plan Present plans provide for the organization of an eight-club league, with Grand Rapids, Muskegon and Kalamazoo of Michigan; Ft. Wayne and Richmond of Indiana; and Dayton, Springfield and Lima of Ohio. This forms a compact organization, with Dayton the only city hesitating. The mileage of this league will be considerably less than the old Central. Each of the eight cities is baseball mad, and officials predict the organization will be one of the most successful minor league circuits. Classy Playera Included The league probably will be entered in baseball rule books as a Class B organization, but the calibre of playera tentatively lined up indicate it will be near Class A. A large number of these have been south in spring training with big league cir cuits and association clubs. Reports from Fort Wayne are to the effect that the American Legion of that city is planning to take over the baseball franchise and back the team. Representatives of the organization will attend Sunday's meeting at Dayton. Bowling With the grand finale but two weeks off, city league bowlers have started a last minute attack on the high scores set up early In the season. The Cokes upset the high team score on Tuesday night when 3,205 pins for three games were upset. The record did not last long, however, as the Cleaners cleaned the Kayseo Number Ones in three games and also hung up a new three game record with 3,241. Kelly, anchor man of the Knights, broke season average for three games with his 222 score. Karl Meyers had held the lead with 219. He also took high score for the evenins with 246. The Number Two Kaysees took the measure of Hill's laddies in the second performance of the evening. Andy Maag, the boy wonder, regained old form and captured high score for the set with 212. He fell down in average, however. The scores: Wil6on Cleaners. Plaver 1st 2nd 3rd To. Av.

High Average Runge. 19. High Score Maag, 212. Junior High Sports V . 1 Garfield indoor baseball artists won a 2 to 10 scrap from representatives of Starr school at the Garfield diamonds Thursday afternoon. This game is the first of a series to be played by Garfield with representative teams from other schools of the city. The hitting and pitching of Earl Thomas featured the Garfield play, while Lacey performed best for the Starrs.

Stuffy Mclnnis Stuffy Mclnnis, veteran first sack er, is one of the few stars of baseball who have gone through season after season without being asked by the umpire to rest a while because of too much harsh language or a hasty punch. Stuffy never has been ordered from a game. This doesn't mean that he has lacked pep, ginger, spirit or whatever you want to call it. It means, instead, that he has devoted his energy to playing the game battling for his team. He has appreciated the fact that he isn't hired to criticize the umps, try to run that bird's business or chastise him for mistakes. When it is considered that Stuffy has been in the big show eleven years this will be his twelfth this is some record. Mclnnis is one of Connie Mack's famous kindergarten finds. He was playing with the Gloucester, Mass., high school when Connie first looked him over. He left there in 1907 and got what little minor league training he needed with New Bedford and Haverhill in the New England league in 1908, going to the Athletics in 1909. Stuffy broke into nineteen games that season and played short in thirty-eight games the following year. In 1911 he took his place at first In Connie Mack's great infield which came to be known as the $100,000 quartet that was in the days when S100.000 meant quite a few steaks or eggs. Mclnnis took his place among the .300 hitters early, batting .301 the year he played short. He stuck in the charmed circle six years and then, after dropping to .295 in 1916, climed back to .303 his last year at the Quaker City. He was one of the last mem bers of the famous pennant-winning outfit to be turned loose by Connie. The tall leader practically gave Mclnnis to the Red Sox January 10, 1918 just in time to let Mac step into another flag-copping combination. He played an important part in the winning of the league race and world's series by the Sox. He had broken into four series with Mack, those of 1910-11-13-14. League Standing v NATIONAL LEAGUE.

Suburban League To Be Discussed at Meeting Representatives from nearby towns will gather in George Brehni's store Sunday afternoon to discuss a suburban baseball league. Each of the surrounding towns has already organized baseball teams and whether or not they will be banded into a league will be decided at Sunday's meeting. Last winter all were enthusiastically in favor, but later developments have caused dissension. The league, if formed, probably will include eight or 10 teams. Games are to be played only on Sunday and each team is limited to players. The clubs will be on a semi-pro basis. Both Liberty and Boston have signified intention of becoming affiliated. These teams will tear the cover from the baseball season when they clash at Liberty Sunday afternoon, if April showers do not interfere. '

NEW GUB STORTSTOP LOOKS PROMISING Manager Mitchell of the Chicago Cubs has uncovered a fine young shortstop named Pearce. When Charley Hollocher .recently developed a stone bruise on his right hand and had to go to the bench Pearce jumped into his position and played brilliantly. Pearce was a member of the Philiies two years ago, but was turned adrift because he could not hit Under Mitchell he is coming fast and will be retained on the Cubs' payroll all season. Phil Douglas, the only certified spitball pitcher on the staff of the Giants, will use the damp delivery this season, but being wiser than he is sometimes credited with being, he is preparing for another year, when the dispensation he and other spitball artists now enjoy shall have expired. Phil, though he favors the saliva ball, is not solely dependent upon it to carry him through. He has a good fast ball and a very fair sort of a curve, and this year he will use these deliveries more than in previous seasons, so that the loss of the 6pltter will not be such a severe blow to him. Douglas blew Into San Antonio in good shape some weeks ago and proceeded to speed up. He was among the first of the Giant pitchers to show signs of approaching championship season form, and his work in the games with the Red Sox has been up to par. If Phil keeps his mind on the game this year he should be a great help to the club, for at his best he i3 one of the most capable box artists in the game. The chances are he will stick to the straight and narrow, for it would seem that he should have learned his lesson. The National league umpires are going to enforce the new pitching rules to the letter. The use of rosin will not be permitted. Boxmen cannot thrust their fingers into hip pockets where this foreign substance formerly was concealed. Having been made to understand that the rules must be obeyed, the pitchers, with few exceptions, now are forgetting freak deliveries and are getting results. Doctoring the ball is a lost art. It never belonged in the game, and first class pitchers can get along without resorting to such tactics. S. A. L. Men to Lay Final Plans; Meet Next Week Saturday afternoon baseball league plans will be decided upon at a meeting next Thursday. The resignation of Mace Byers has made necessary the election of another president. The Starr Piano nine will be the first S. A. L. outfit to swing into action. A squad of at least 20 players will be on hand for the game to be played against Earlham, Saturday fternoon, and Manager Al Meyers announces that all will be given a chance at the Quakers. Prospects are that the Natco aggregation will swing into action against Wayne Works representatives in a practice scrap next week. The Jenkins-Vulcans may take on the Starr Piano. Pre-season dope favors the Starrs as having the best line-up. However, both the Natcos and Jenkins-Vulcans are well supplied with top-notch play-; ers. Both Emmett and Everett Haas, : Byrkett and others work at the spring j works. The Natcos have Johnny and Herbie Logan to build a team around.
