Sept. 24.—There are at least two Feds who regret their jumping from the major ranks, Vtn Campbell and Bill Rariden, outfielder and catcher, now playing' with the In dianapolis team of the Federal League. These players, according to friends, are kicking themselves all over the baseball field. Those two, both stars, last year were the property of the Boston National League club. Campbell didn't play in 1913, having quit the national meeting in a huff the previous season. At the beginning of this season, he was im portuned by George Stallings. the Braves' manager, to join the club. Kariden. though, caught the majority of Boston's games last year and was ranked as one of the best receivers in the National League. During last winter Federal League agents whispered offers into the ears of both Campbell and Rariden. They listened and began to fall, as the Fed agent named sums much in excess of the salaries they were receiving at Boston. Boston last year was a down and outer with no show of getting into the world's series money. And the prospects for 1914 were not much brighter at the time the new league's agents were after Rariden and Camp bell. And so it was not strange that Rariden and Campbell should jump to the outlaw circuit with a chance to make more money. But now, with the Boston Braves knocking the props from under the Giants and being picked by many to win the National League flag, it's a different thing—much different. Kari den and Campbell groan every time they pick up a paper and read that Boston has won another game. vV Comfort, MEN" who desire the most in comfort, fit, style and lasting satisfaction in shoes should wear a pair of our high grade shoes.

Boston Braves Strong in National Race Special to The Telegraph Boston, Mass.. Sept. 24.—The law of averages gives the Boston Nationals a decisive advantage over the New York Giants, and a repetition of the past two weeks' happenings will make the Braves prohibitive favorites over the three-time champions of the Na tional League. By virtue of their vic tory over the Pittsburgh team, the Braves gained bne full game on the New York team, for the latter was un able to score on Vaughn, and conse quently went down to defeat before Chicago. Four games now separate the teams and only nineteen games remain un played by the Braves with one less for New York. Assuming that the Giants win all of their remaining games—a decidedly improbable happening the Braves would win the pennant by capturing fifteen. Since returning from the West Stalling's men have travelled at a fast gait and there seems no reason why the team should not advance into the world's series. HETTY GREEN DENIES SHE WILL Bl Y THE CI US Special to The Telegraph New York. Sept. 23. —Another bub ble burst yesterday with a loud pop. But while the bubble was in the pro eass of growing the Chicago Cubs got as much publicity out of its as they ever did in the noisy days of Charles Webb Murphy. Here's the yarn: Some one spread the report that Hetty Green was to huv the Cubs. Sporting writers were tickled silly. It gave them one of the mighty few chances they've had of late to break into print on the first pages. And then Colonel Edward Green. Mrs. Hetty Green's son, fiatly denied the story. "My mother is not a fan." chu.ckled Colonel Green, "and wouldn't think, of buying the Chicago baseball club." Reporters to whom Colonel Green said this, think there was a slight em phasis on the "Chicago." CARLISLE INDIANS IRE GIVEN SURPRISE Lebanon Valley College Eleven Held Glenn Warner's Crowd to a Small Score Carlisle, Pa„ Sept. 24.—Glenn War ner and his Indians were given one big surprise by the Lebanon Valley College eleven yesterday. Carlisle won, score 7 to 0, but had to go some. It was the strongest eleven Lebanon Valley has ever had in the field, and last season's successes will more than be repeated, in the opinion of those who saw Lebanon Valley play yes terday. No points were scored un til the final period of the game. The vftitors outweighted Carlisle by 15 pounds per man. The swelter ing heat made the day unfit for foot ball, and the eight-minute periods did not give the Indians time to accom plish anything especially when prog ress was delayed by fumbles. For Carlisle. Calac was easily the star. For the visitors, Wheelock, the Indian from Carlisle, was a big factor in tackling and carrying the ball. Carlisle. Positions. Lebanon.

An other defeat for Francis Ouimet, of Brookline, Mass., the national golf champion, was the feature of the final rounds of play in the invitation golf tournament at the Greenwich Country Club to-day. In the semifinal round for the beaten eight of the leading division, Ouimet gave a splendid exhibition when he won from R. H. White, of Oakland, L. 1., by 6 and 4. In the af ternoon. however, when he met Gard ner W. White, of Flushing, L. 1., the champion was never better than even at any stage, and was beaten 3 up and 2. The winner was in great form, barring the missing of a very short putt on the twelfth green, and the clinching shot of the match was his sinking of a 25-foot putt on the fif teenth for a half in three, which made him dormie. The next hole was halv ed in fives and the match ended right there. Ouimet got good direction from the tees during the round, but he was weak on the greens. CORNELL TRIMS VRSINCS; EASY TIME WINNING Ithaca. N. Y.. Sept. 24.—Cornell waded right into Crsinus yesterday and when time was called had scored 2" points to her opponents' nothing. The Cornell first tee-a had little trou ble bowling over lighter oppon ents, whom they outclassed in every department. In the third and part of the last period with a number of subs sent in th* attack of the Ithacans halted, bu the regulars had an easy time. Cornell scored one minute after play when a blocked punt which bounded well towards the goal line was picked up by O'Hearn and taken over for a score. The Ithacans soon scored again in this period, following a 30-yard series of straight football rushes, and got another tally in the third period following three good gains by Mueller from the 30-yard line. Mueller also made the touchdown. "NORMAN" Th. NEWEST Cluett, Faibody St Co., Inc. Mik<r» HEADQUARTERS FOR SHIRTS SIDES & SIDES "Buck" Boyle Quits; Treatment Was Cool Special to The Telegraph Philadelphia. Sept. 2*.— Men back of the Philadelphia National League baseball team have overlooked anoth er good bet. George Buck Boyle, the best first baseman the Tri-State League has had in years, left for his home in Al lentown, disgusted at the shabby treatment accorded him by the Phil lies during his trial here this week. In an effort to strengthen the Phil lies. the Allentown club turned Boyle over to them under unusually gener ous conditions. Boyle was to show his skill in morning pratice here at no cost to the Phillies. In case he caught the fancy of the Phillies chief. Allen town agreed to sell him to President Baker for the waiver price of $1,200, but if he didn't come up to the latter's standard, the Phillies would not be out a nickle. Boyle came here Tuesday morning and said he received a cool reception. He did a little light drill, but nobody asked hiin to go to first and see how he could cover the bag. He was surprised at the lack of in terest. as he believed the club wanted to look him over. The same condi tions prevailed yesterday. Other play ers and officials brushed by Boyle as if he was a bat boy and made no at tempt to see what he could do. This was too much for Boyle, who quickly changed his clothes and It ft for Allentown without saying good by to anybody at Broad and hunting don. Boyle is a youth, but fans who have watched him play in the Tri-State League declare hini to be the, most wonderful first baseman the circuit has ever had. He is a lightning field er and his stops and brainy plays have electrified fans. Boyle is also a good hitter. Experts say that a good man ager could make a second Stuffy Mc lnnis out of him. Boyle is lost to the Phils now, but he probably will shortly land with a major league club that is not afraid to give a youth a trial. Kavanaugh and Burns are two oth er players that obtained berths else where because of the inattention the local clubs give to local and nearby players.

Sept. 24. —Three min utes after Ed. Hussell kicked off in yesterday's scrimmage at Franklin Field, Ted Merrell caught one of "Nig" Berry's long spirals under his own goal posts and dodged through the en tire scrub team for a touchdown in the first long spectacular run of the sea son. This proved to be the only score in the most spirited scrimmage held thus far. Practice yesterday was heated in more ways than one. With the Gettys burg game only three days off. Coach Brooke was forced to drive his men hard. He finished the day by sending the men through a 40-tninute scrim mage in which both teams showed midseason form. The varsity in particular played real football from the time Berry carried the kickoff back fifteen yards until time was called.
