REDS DOWN PHILLIES

BY RIXEY'S HURLING; CLIMBING HIGHER UP PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 26. Second place loomed Into the distance for the Cincinnati Redlegs as they went along for another victory over the Phillies, 10 to 3, behind the superb hurling of Eppa Rixey, supported by the slugging of Jake Daubert. The Clnci club Is now tied with St. ! Louis for third place, by virtue of the defeat of the Cardinals and the win by the Reds. Sixteen hits for a total of 22 bases was the record of the Moran outfit in the matinee performance. Although the Phillies scored one tally in each of the first three rounds, they -were soon quelled by Rixey, who put up a remarkable exhibition for the remaining seven innings. . Daubert Drives Hard. Jake Daubert started the lively fireworks in the first .inning with a home run over the right center field fence, putting Burns in ahead of him. Sam Bohne sent the Phillies to the front in the third inning, after the Phillies had scored two in the first two rounds. Bohne fumbled Parkinson's groundeij which should have gone for a double play. He then threw wild to second base, allowing Walker to reach third. Lee grounded to Fonseca, forcing Parkinson at second, but Sammy's relay to first was too wide for a double , play, and Walker scored from third. 1 Rixey Hurls Superbly. From then on, Rixey held the Quakl ers and the Red3 went to the front in the fourth with four runs and one more in the seventh for their total of 10. Their final game of the eastern invasion was scheduled for Tuesday with the Phillies, then they were to move on to Pittsburgh to try for second place in their two-game series with the , Pirates. The score: Cincinnati.

FRANCE BIDDING FOR NEXT OLYMPIC MEET France apparently has a sneaking notion that she has a good chance to win the Olympic championship in 1924 Homer Baker, one of America's best runners, who is now director of atli letics in the Canal Zone, was in Paris recently and he applied for the posi tion of coach of the French Olympic team. He was told politely that France was Koine to have a Frenchman in charga of her team, so that Americans could not take the credit away from ti French victory with a comeback that an American- coached them. Baker says that France has a coupls of good young runners coming up and one good hurdler. Sweden, according to reports, has been working a year with the Olympics in mind and after the present summer season will be ready to put a great loam in the field, with two more years for further improvement. Sweden on the showing made at Antwerp will be America's most dangerous rival and a very formidable opponent. General Tangle Improvement shown in field athletics in the Scandanavian countries was shw -eceatly when Huff, a Norweg ian, cK'xed 13 feet 6 inches in the pol vault and established a ' mew world's record. The pole vault has always been considered Uncle Sam's pet little event. While all of the European nations are actively at work on the development of a 1924 Olympic team, the United States is all tangled up in a petty political fight over the manage ment and selection of the team. Down at the bottom of the fight is a contriversy between the Y. M. C. A. which seeks world-wide control of all sports, and the Amateur Athletic Uuion, which has made some mistakes in the past, but which has been generally successful on a very difficult job. The opinion seems to prevail that all required is to get heads together about March 1. 1924. pick a team off the record books and hunt for a boat. Unless something is done, Uncle Sam is in for a bad disappointment at Paris in 1924. Albert Hill, the veteran British middle distance runner, who was a double winner at the last Olympic games, i reported to have changed his mind about coming over ior tne Dig Amer ican indoor meet this winter. He says he would have accepted an invitation last year, but he has definitely anl i finally retired. A. E. Edwards, the colored sprinter. who chased the American sprinters to the wire in Antwerp, i3 planning to come over, however, and Ed Mountain, the oresent British half-mile champion and the world's record holder for 50'J

metrer, may come with him.

THE

Chips and Slips A patient, escaped from an insane asylum, was at last discovered in earnest conversation with a colored guard at a military encampment. By means of signs behind the maniac's back, the attendants were at last able to capture him. Then one of them happened to glance toward the guard and demanded in astonishment: "Why, man, what's the matter with you? You're trembling and the sweat is pouring off your face." "Yassir," gulped the negro. "Boss, after dat feller been talkin to me five minutes I knowed one of us" was crazy, and now I've found out it's him, I'se so relieved so relieved!"

Ty Cobb's Detroit Tigers showed that they are a slugging bunch of baM players when they dropped Pittsburgh in an exhibition game at the Smokycity Monday, 5 to 1. Oldham went the entire distance for the Tigers, allowing but two hits. Battling Siki, that "liquor training had man," who handed the K. O. to Georges Carpentier Sunday, now gains the attention of the ladies of Paris As he strutted down the boulevards, flocks of women struggle to kiss him biki, whose real name is Louis Fall, states that he will challenge Dempsey. HORNSBY MAY GRAB ADDITIONAL LAURELS (By Associated Press) NEW YORK, Sept. 26. Besides the probability that he will succeed Babe Ruth as this year's home run king, Rogers Hornsby, brilliant second sacker of the St Louis Cardinals, has an excellent chance of grabbing additional laurels by being the first National league batsman in 23 years to finish the season with an average of .400 or better. Hornsby's unofficial mark today was .401 and at the clip he has been hit ting ot late the Cardinal star should have little difficulty in maintaining or improving this mark in the few re maining games on the schedule. His log today showed 138 runs and 242 hits for 149 games. . Ld Delehanty of the old Philadel phia club was the last National leaguer 10 wina up trie season with an average over .4U0. His figure was .408 in 1899 Frior to. that the select circle of .400 hitters included Willie Keeler, Adrain u (Fop) Anson, Jesse Burkett, Hugh uuiiy ana Koss Barnes. Americans Three. Since its start in 1900. the American league has produced three .400 hitters Nap Lajoie, Ty Cobb arid George Sis ler. Cobb reached the coveted mark in J911, and 1916 while Sisler is likely to improve by a considerable margin this year, his figure of .407 made in 1920. In the race for circuit clouting hon ors, Hornsby with 42 to his credit, has a lead of three over his nearest rival Kenneth Williams, of the St. Louis Browns, while Ruth, unable to over come the handicap of a delayed start. has 34, with but four more games in wmcn to boost his total.

RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND

Mcintosh Starts Things Going by Signing With J ohnny Barns

Editor's Xotei Thin Is the second of pries of six articles by Frank G. Menke detailing how the fltrht same was revived in Australia and including the sensational Incidents leading; up to and embracing? the Johnson-Burns fight for the world's championship. . Br FRANK G. MEKE . SYDNEY, Australia. Sept. 26. The fistic game was profoundly dead In Australia in 1908 until Hugh D. Mc intosh revived it with a daring plunge into the promotional end of the sport. The game earlier had flourished here but only in a small way. Along in 1900 it started to decay-and within few years was little more than a memory. But in 1908 Mcintosh conceived the idea of putting on a big bout here with Tommy Burns, then technical and certainly the active champion of the world, as a stellar feature of the card for "American Fleet Day." It then was June, 1908, the fleet was to arrive in mid-August, Burns was in Europe, six weeks' travel from Australia and there wasn't an arena of any sort within the city. Mcintosh Goes Ahead But Mcintosh, "undaunted, went ahead with his program, hoping some way, somehow, to win in the race against time. "I cabled Percy Hunter, a friend of mine, who was in London, to get Tom my Burns' terms," related Mcintosh. A day later Burns cabled he would fight three fights in Sydney for a total of $20,000 an average of about $6,1,57 per fight. I accepted immedi ately and told Burns to sail at once knowing if he missed the next boat he wouldn't be here in time. Bui Squires, then regarded as Australia's heavyweigth champion, was in France at the time. I decided that he'd be the drawing card against Burns and cabled him an offer of $4,000. He accepted and caught the boat. Then began the hunt for an arena site. Everywhere I went I found prices for suitable plots had gone sky high. Eventually I found a place in the Rushcutters Bay district, just be yond the boundary line of the city of Sydney, yet a part of the city it self. Rents Land I rented the land for $10 a week and then gave rush orders for build ing of the arena. The land was swampy and it was necessary to drain it before building work could be started. The day they started to drain, it began to rain. It rained every day for three weks. No work could be done, the fighters were nearing Sydneyand so was the fleet and things didn't look very rosy. But eventually the rain stopped Then the building work started and was rushed day and night. Never in all history had any arena been built so hurriedly. "The fighters arrived and went into short training. The fleet arrived and fight day was only 72 hours away. The arena was almost completed when the iirst mow mi me. "A board of city architects con demned the arena said that the seats were too frail to hold any weight and the structure so freakish that to stage a fight and draw a crowd into it would only invite disaster. I pleaded with the board so did the builder. But its members stood pat on their declara tion that the arena could not be used Structure Completed "At about 3 a. m. on the day the fight was to be held, the last nail was driven into the structure the last board put in place. The builders left and a squad of policemen took up their stations outside the gates to keep out the fight crowds under orders from the city government. "At 4:30 a. m. I aroused from bed Colonel Vernon, the government architect. I explained the whole situation to him. I knew if I could get him tc O. K. the arena the fight could be put on because his word was the last law. "I drove Col. Vernon to the arena as dawn was breaking and the unre Claim Motion Pictures Indicate Battling Siki Tripped Carp In Bout (By Associated Press) PARIS, Sept. 26 The controversy over the dramatic finish of the Georges Carpentier-Battling Siki fight continues, and the former's manager, Descamps, persists in his appeals to the judges decision awarding the chamboxing federation for a reversal of the pionship to Siki. Many of those who have ' seen the motion picture films of the contest, maintain that Carpentier was clearly trionted bv his opponent. Victor Breyer, one of the judges is one of those taking this view, but he expressed the hiiPf that, such a foul by Siki could not have affected the outcome, as Carpentier was already a beaten man. May Reverse Ruling. Some of the newspaper experts say it is possible the federation may yet award the bout to Carpentier. In any case Descamps is set upon having another meeting between his protege and Siki as soon as possible. Georee3 now bears few marks ot tne beating he suffered, but his physicians are keeping him in bed because of his sprained ankle and fractured right hand. He broke the hand on Siki's skull. "He has a hard head, that negro, says Georges. "I was wrong in trying to get him by those nooKs to tne jaw. The majority of French sportsmen say Carpentier should retire, but only after, a final match in which to re-establish his reputation as a brilliant fighter. Not To Retire. Georges, is not considering retiring and scoffs at statements that ne is planning a stage career. He is a box er, he says and intenas to remain one "as long as I have the strength to put up my fiwts." Meanwhile the victorious Siki is lookine for new heights to conquer, and although he Is a light heavyweight has his eyes on Jack Dempsey's crown. Hia manager realizes tlrat, in order tn a chance at Dempsey, Siki must prove his mettle against one of the leadine men in his class in America. He has, however, refused an offer of $20,000 to meet Harry Wills, counterins with a demand for a 1,100,000 francs guarantee. BOXING RESULTS (By Associated Press) PHILADELPHIA.

served ticket people already were forming a line. He spent an hour in specting it Then he shook his head, sadly: ' " T can't but feel as the other archi tects do that the arena is faulty in construction and that it may collapse. Yet I'm going to let my faith in you as a man my judgment of you and your honesty sway me into approv ing this structure. If anything goes wrong, God have 'mercy upon my sou1.'

The New York Giants today are champions of the National League for the tenth time in their career. Eight of these triumps have occurred since 1904 under the indomitable leadership of John Joseph McGraw and this year's vctory came after a typcal McGraw finish a battling drive in which the club landed on top despite the loss of its star twirler, Phil Douglas, the collapse of the rest of its mound staff, and in the face of an eleventh hour menace in the form of the Pittsburgh Pirates. Long George Kelly lashed out the hit that scored Frank with the winning run in the tenth inning of a tense struggle with the St. Louis Cardinals and removed all trace of mathematical uncertainty in the pennant chase. The final score was five to four and Bill Ryan, who relieved Quillan in the tenth received credit for the victory. Yanks Play Thursday The Yankees leading the St. Louis Browns by three and a half games and needing but one more victory to cinch the American League title cannot settle the issue before Thursday when they open a three game series in Boston. They have one more game after that with Washington The Browns will complete their season with a three game series with the Chicago White Sox beginning Friday. The best the Browns could obtain is a tie, which should result only if they win all of their remaining games while the Yankees drop all of theirs." With the world's series thus a practical certainty as an all New York af fair, plans for the annual classic call for its opening on Wednesday, Oct. 4. with the Giants as the "home club." Games will be played on successive days unless a seventh game is neces sary to decide the championship. In that event, a lapse of a day would occur between the 6th and 7th contests. In the only other major league came played yesterday, Cincinnati trounced Philadelphia 10 to 3, and climbed to within a fraction of a percentage of the Cardinals in the battle for third place.

BATTLING SIKI GETS OFFERS FOR MATCHES WITH U,S, OPPONENTS NEW YORK, Sept. 26. Battling Siki, the Senegalese boxer, who has risen to sudden pugilistic fame by his knockout of Georges Carpentier, was besieged today by offers from New York fight promoters for bouts with American opponents here. His manager, M. Hellers, has at least three propositions under consideration. Tex Rickard after receiving a cable gram from Hellers expressing Willing ness to bring Siki to this eountry after January 1, cabled an offer to match the Senegalese with any prominent light heavyweight, including Harry Greb, the American title-holder; Gene Tunney, former champion, or Tom Gib bons, St. Paul boxer. Rickard, how ever, said he had made no financial proposition to Siki and would rot do so pending a reply. Additional Offer In addition Dave Driscoll, match maker for Ebbets field, has cabled an offer of $100,000 for Siki to box Harry Wills, negro challenger for Jack Dempsey's heavyweight title, on October 12 and Thomas F. O'Rourke, matchmaker for the Republic A. C. has put in n bid of $25,000 for a contest with either. Wills or Greb, preferably the latter, some time In October at the Polo grounds. Meanwhile the only indication of Siki's attitude toward any of these offers was contained in cable dis patches quoting his manager as re jecting O'Rourke's terms and demanding 1,000,000 francs, or $83,000 at the current rate of exchange, for the African's end of the purse. The agreed opinion In boxing circles was that if the Senegalese agrees to box in this country, it will be against an opponent in the lightweight heavy class. Wills, weighing around 210 pounds, it was pointed out, would have an unusual advantage over the 174 pound Siki should they be matched U, ENTHUSIASTS RELY ON PAT HERRON (Special to The Palladium) BLOOMINGTON, Ind., Sept 26. Will Pat Herron, new head coach at Indiana university taking the place this season of Jumbo Stiehm, make his mark in the Big Ten western conference? Football fans not only in Indiana but from east to west will turr their eyes on Indianapolis, October 14, when Indiana meets Minnesota, for the answer to this question. In this game Herron will make his debut as a Big Ten coach and that he will make an aggressive . entry is indicated from the hard licks he is putting in daily on the Indiana eleven; He4has had four squads working out on Jordan field during the past week, blocking, tackling, punting, falling on the ball, charging, flying at the dummies, and racing up and down the field in signal drill. Among them are twelve veterans from last season, twenty-odd promising candidates from last year's freshman team, and about thirty other candidates of varying degrees of experience. Herron is watching every man on the field for evidence of ability. Has to Build Eleven "I come to you with my mind a blank as to your individual playing qualities," he told his candidates on the opening day of practice. "The team will have to be built from the material I see on the field and not from what I hear of this man or that man. The thing that will secure a player's position will be the work he does. I have always found hard work and willingness to work the secret of the suc cess of any player." Herron is young and enthusiastic and never -wastes a moment on the field. He has made a wonderful impression not only on the Indiana team but with- the student body and alumni who have watched his work. Football spirit has never been better at Indiana and followers 'of the cream and crimson are looking forward with confidence to the Minnesota game at Indianapolis, when Herron will get his baptism of fire. WOMEN'S ATHLETICS BOOM AT EARLHAM Enthusiasm is running high and va riety of program is offered in women's athletics at Earlham this year.

Duel Of Second Basemen '

In World Series When Yankees, Giants Clash One of the merriest little due)3 which will be staged if the New York Giants and the New York Yankees clash in the coming world's series will be that between Aaron Ward sfthe Yankees (in thi9 corner) and Frank Frisch of the Giants. (Hurrah!) These two lads, holdin down the second basing positions on their clubs, will try to settle the friendly feud that started last fall. ' - - On the season's work, Frisch seems to have an edge on Ward; Aaron b playing has been o. k., but his hitting which figures in a man's general worth to his club has fallen off this season. Last year he hit .300. -This year his average is nearer the -.250 mark. . . Ward Hit Timely. Ward hit fairly timely in the series last fall, however, collecting six hits This leads his friends to believe he can be counted on this fall. Ward has been with the Yanks since ne was canea up irom uie Charleston club in 1917. He took time out to help slap the kaiser in 1918. and it was not until 1920 that he got back into the game as a regular. He rapidly made a name for himself as a speedy, clean fielder. His worth to his club is increased by the fact that he can play third as efficiently as he can hold down second. His home is at Fort Smith, Ark. . PURDUE COACH AND ATHLETIC DIRECTOR PRESCRIBE TACTICS LAFAYETTE, Ind., Sept. 26. Two booklets, one called "Qualifications Of An Athlete," written by Football Coach James Phelan, and the other, issued by Director of Athletics N. A. Kel logg, containing matter of general in formation regarding the Purdue University athletic department and also Big Ten athletics, have been given out to all members of the varsity and freshmen football squads here this season, and are to be presented to every man trying out for any Purdue athletic team. ' In his booklet, Phelan, in three or four pages, sets out his idea of what an athlete should be, off and on the field. The new Purdue coach stresses the fact that to be a good college athlete one must first be a good student, and then lays out four of the prime essentials for the successful athlete, particularly the football player, brains, grit, speed and weight. The first two only are regarded as absolutely essential by Phelan, while it is usually the star athlete who possesses all four characteristics. Booklet Proves Popular Then, in short paragraphs,, the coach takes up aggressiveness, obedience, concentration of mind, determination, co-optTation and sportsman ship, setting out in a concise and clear manner his ideas on each one of these subjects. The little booklet has proved extremely popular with the grid candidates, -and many of them have gained a great deal of helpful information from it. This is the first time anything of this nature has been published here, and it has undoubtedly been more than worth the effort of its compilation and publication. Kellogg's Booklet Helpful Kellogg's booklet, somewhat larger than Phelan's, contains a short history of the Purdue athletic associa tion, the range of its activities, the constitution of the Purdue Athletic association, an outline of the method of procedure in the Big Ten, and also the rules of the Western conference This book has proved very interesting and" helpful to both athletes and fol lowers of athletics, containing as it does much information not usually at the command of the average fan or player. Richmond Ramblers Downed By Abington Club Sunday ABINGTON, Sept. 26 Abington de feated the Richmond RanibleTs here Sunday afternoon by the score of 13 to 9.
