OLD MAN DEFEAT IS FAITHFUL FOLLOWER OF CINCINNATI, 1-0

' "REV? YORK, Sept, 21, 31nelnnat4 closed its Eastern trip, tne most disastrous that they had ever undertaken, with a defeat at the hands of the Giants on the Polo Grounds, Tuesday by the smallest possible score, 1 to 0. The game, was a superb pitching duel between Toney and Napier with the former having a slight shade. It was the shortest and one of the best played games of the season, only 1 hour and 16 minutes being consumed in playing. A walk to Pep Young In the seventh frame with no one out resulted in the only tally of the game. It was a tough game for Napier to lose, he having won his three previous starts In the Nation' al League. He allowed six hits but not a New Yorker got past first base except in the inping the score was made. It was his only slip and it would not have been costly if the Reds had been hitting behind him, but they coujd secure only three bingles and those failed to net runs. Rooseh made it ?T eonseeutlve games in which he has hit safely, by getting a single the first time up. Yesterday's victory by the Giants puts the Reds absolutely out of the race for the pennant, if Brooklyn should- lose all of their remaining games and Cincinnati win all, the Dodx gers would still finish a game ahead. , The Scare.

The first week of football pratice at Miami university has closed with fine results, and to the entire satisfaction of Coach George E. Little and his assistants. From 35 to 40 men were out each evening, and notwithstanding the fact that three good men who nd been counted on failed to show up at scheol. the work of the squad has been ol

excellent character. Brower. Lingrei and L. Davis are the three who are not in college this term. Coach Little has been giving bis men moderate work in all branches ot the game, but no scrimmages have been held thus far. The first of these will come the latter part of the week. Miami's line will not be as heavy this season as in previous years, but there promises to be more speed, ire and Work are looked upon as the most promising material for the ends; Mc Nelly Predmore and Orth are doing fine at guard; Crouse. Angle, Hawk and Ewing are rapidly developing into good tackles, and Captain Hale is at C6ntcr. In the back field Mike Essig is doing fine work at fullback; Davis and Fox can be used either at quarter or halfback; Munns is playing a consistent quarterback, while Wolf. MeGinnis, McDiarmid, Blum. Lohmann, Siminsen and Kramer are valuable men in more than one position. Others who are working hard and may be heard from are Stueve, Regan, Holzmueller, Vance, Springer. Pohlman, Laub. Baker, Wright and Hoffman. George F. Munns, former star halfback, and Karl Houser, of the Dayton Triangles, have been assisting Coach Little in the preliminary field work. No one is willing to make any predictions, but it is the general impression here that Miami will have a fast and strong team with which to open the season with St. Xavier college of Cincinnati, Oct. 2.

A SNAPPY SCRIMMAGE IS HELD BY QUAKERS Continuing the hard workouts that have characterised the Quaker grid practices thus far this year, Coaches Mowe and Higgins put their men through a short and snappy scrimmage Tuesday on Reid Field. The remainder of the time was spent in perfecting the system of signals that is being doped out for the teams. The grid season has about settled

into the grind for the year and barring accidents a good line on the makeup ; of the team can be had in the daily

practice. Many of the new men are rounding into shape to give battle toj the veterans for their positions in the lineup, but thus far it seems likely that most of he old men will hold their jobs. This, however, does not bar the new men from putting up a pretty battle for the openings In the I backfield and around the center of the j

line. Of the new men trying out four seem to stand out as the most promising. Girtin, of Camden, O., has 220 pounds of beef to back up considerable speed and when he tears into a line a considerable gain is generally made. He is exceptionally fast for his size and makes a very creditable showjng in the fullback job. Wenbin, of Cincinnati, also looks good in the backfield. He has had considerable experience which shows in his playing. Sage, a newcomer who attended Purdue, Beck and Bowles will all bear watching. About 35 men are still out and these are divided into tlree teams. Cy Pitts, fullback last year, who is teaching vocal music at the college is assisting Coach Mowe with his grid warriors. Pitts played four years football while in college.
