THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM, RICHMOND, IND.. WEDNESDAY, OCT. 6, 1920. BROOKLYN PRESENTS NO ALIBI ON SCORE OF TUESDAY'S GAME

PAGE TEN

(By Associated Preaa) NEW YORK, Oct. 6. With one victory to their credit in the world's series of 1920, the Cleveland Indians, champions of the American League, were confident today of making it two straight over Brooklyn, standard bearers of the National League. On the other hand, Manager Robinson and his players were not the least discouraged by their defeat yesterday and were determined to reverse the result this afternoon. The Brooklyn players had no ex cuses to offer for their defeat, but many of their supporters Insisted that th "breaks of the game" favored the Indians yesterday. They pointed to the play in he second inning which resulted in the first run for Speaker's men. Burns' fly ordinarily would have been an easy out for Konetchy, but the effect of the wind on the ball in its downward flight made it impossiblo for any player to Judge accurately where the horsehide would land. Then followed Konetchy's throw to the outfield, permitting Burns to 6 core. Umpires Rotate. The assignment of umpires for today's game as well as for all succeeding games in the series has been decided upon by a plan of rotation. The officials will advance from left to right one base for each game, thus putting each umpire in a different position each day. Under his plan, Um

pire Connolly of the American League who was at first base yesterday, will

SKILL IN TACKLING

SOUGHT BY QUAKERS

FOR FRAY SATURDAY

Maroon and White pigskin chasers

were put through their paces- in the Earlham yard Tuesday evening by

Coaches Mowe and Higgins and most

or the sore places from Saturday's game were worked out. Scrimmage occupied much of the time and the

weaknesses that were exhibited in the

Hanover game were pointed out by the Quaker mentor during the play. Coach Mowe was well satisfied with the showing made by his squad last week. Many of the men showed in

work behind the plate this afternoon. an3 Jlt ... , . . . I lo nave some more fundamentals

O'Day, of the National league, will be at first base; Dineen, of the American league, at second base, and Klem, of the National league, at third base. According to reports from betting centers there is not nearly as much betting interest in the series as in former years. One firm reported that several thousand dollars had been placed in its hands as stakeholders, but the amount was far less than in previous years. Another firm which has made a study of all big betting events for many years, estimated that the amount now in the hands of the several Wall street commissioners was only about $50,000, while in previous years bets on the world's series in the financial district aggregated anywhere from $250,000 to $500,000. Cleveland continued to rule a slight favorite to win the series, the odds remaining at 6 to 5. Brooklyn, however, insisted upon 7 to 5.

park here before the booths this mom-

be able to hold their own against a faster aggregation. Tackling Weak. The big weakness that stood out in the Quaker playing last Saturday was their inability to tackle sure and hard. This is being worked on by the men. It is expected that this will be overcome before the Quakers stack up against some of the harder teams of the year, such as Rose Poly and Michigan Normal. The Wilmington game Saturday is not causing a great deal of worry around the campus. Mowe looks on this game as pretty much of a practice scrap, although in previous years the Ohio team has been able to slip over wins on the Quakers, it is not thought that they will stand much chance at this this year. A large squad of men will make the trip to Wiimington and be given a chance to get in the lineup. Mowe figures that the more men he can give experience the better team he will

have toward the end of the season. He

ins to distribute reserved seats o ! ls training two men for every position those lucky enough to receive allot- and can make several substitutions ments. There were two reasons for without weakening his lineup, the rush, it was explained. The fans

were anxious to obtain their tickets and they were anxious to get down town, to their clubrooms or to other places where the returns of the second game of the world's series between the Cleveland Indians and the Brooklyn Dodgers would be posted. Never before has the city been so wild over baseball. The enthusiasm over the Indians winning the first pennant since Cleveland has had or ganizod baseball 42 years was insignificant compared to that shown over the Tribe's victory yesterday. Confidence was expressed by the fans that their favorites would make it two straight today.

SERIES RECEIPTS MAY EXCEED 1919 RETURNS

(By Associated Press) NEW YORK, Oct. 6. It has been pointed out that because of the capacity of the parks where the world's series games are to be played, there is i ; , T 1 ; 1 . i ; u .a

record being made, but there is a possibility, if the series goes to seven or eight games, of a new mark in total gate receipts The record for receipts was established last year when nearly three-quarters of a million dollars were paid by 23C.928 fans to witness the games between Cincinnati and the Chicago White Sox. With the prevailing prices for admission tickets this season and capacity crowds for seven or eight games there is a chance that the total receipts will exceed those of last year. Sixteen Have Been Playd. The sixteen world's series that have been plnyed, including the one of 190:? not under the jurisdiction of the National Commission, have attracted a total attendance of 2.252.842. or an .tverage of 23.407 for each of the 94 ,rames that have been played. The receipts have mounted tip to a otal of $4,202,135. Of this sum $2,122.itlS represents the share of the club owners, but the owners have not iiocketcl the rntire amount. For several years the regulations have required the owners to return a percentage of their share of the receipts to their respective leaame treasuries, the portion now being at least 50 per cent. The players who have taken part In vorld's series primes since 1901 have divided Jl.fi03.1T7 and the National Commission had received from the hi? games Jtlt.ni.

dent body and faculty. The first ap-!

pearance of the high school band also

will be made at this time. Sta'"t Signal Practice. Coach Null continued the work with his team Tuesday evening by giving them a scrimmage and a short signal practice. Considerable time was spent by Mattox and Davis in kicking goals. Loehr placed his toe against the pigskin in punting practice. Loehr will have his hands full in keeping up in the exchanging of punts next Saturday, as Clark, of Shortridge, made his punts average around the 50 yard mark throughout last Saturday's game. A scrimmage probably will occupy the Red and White Wednesday evening, which may be the last befote they take the field against the visit ing team.

WAYNE CHAMPIONSHIP

DECIDED HERE SUNDAY

A nifty tussle is expected at Exhibi

tion park next Sunday afternoon

when the Eagles and Centervillo stack up in a contest which is supposed to carry with it the championship of Wayne county. One of the largest crowds of the season is expected to be on hand for the encounter. Representatives from the towns in the western part of the county are planning to be present and root for the Centerville team. The Eagle followers will be out in a body to stand by their favorites, according to Manager Williams, of the Eagles. Centerville is securing the aid of the best semi-pro players in and around Richmond. Several players that are very familiar to local fans will be in the challenger's uniform. The exact lineup for Centerville has not yet beeu announced. The Eagles will present the same men that have been playing high class ball all the summer, no stacking up will be made by them, as they beljeve they have sufficient strength to take over the presumptuous lads from down the National road. The game will be a nip and tuck affair, according to all predictions.

In the future, the state armory, . east Main street, will be headquarters for St. Clair post, American legion, the post having been made custodian of the building by the adjutant general of the state.
