cause of Infantile Quarantine;
Team in Good Shape
Annville, Pa., Sept. 29. Coach
Guyer left this morning for West
Point with a squad of nineteen men. l
Final practice was held last night In J
the form of a long signal drill after i
Which the men were named who
would make the trip. Great en- j
thusiasm was shown by the student
body when a mass meeting was held
In the chapel to give the team a send r
off. Many had planned to accom- 1
pany the team but a telegram was re- \
ceived by Manager Wagner to the ef- 1
feet that no spectators would be al
lowed. This is due to the strict in
fantile paralysis quarantine in the (
State of New York.

Trap and Field Notes
About Women Shooters
Peter P. Carney
! It is the ambition of Mrs. L. C. Vo
gel, of Detroit, Mich., to win one of
the "big" shoots, and it wouldn't sur
j prise many of the shooters if she did
1 come through some time. She is al
ways up with the leaders,
i Mrs. Harry L. Potter is not only the
champion woman trapshot of Wiscon
sin, but she is the best field shot as
; well.
Annapolis, Mil, has discovered an
; eight-year-old trapshooting marvel.
The name of the young lady is Ellza
i beth Anderson.
j There are more women trapshots In
| Chicago, 111., than in any other city in
America.
Mrs. Harold Almert, of Chicago, 111.,
made the best showing of any woman
shot at Pinehurst, won the Illinois
! championship for women shooters and
j then failed in the Grand American.
| Mrs. A. I. Brown, of Cleveland. 0.,
wife of a former Ohio State cham-
I pion, has taken up trapshooting, and
i her first tournament was the Ameri-
I can Indians.
j One of the best women trap and field
phots on the Pacific coast Is Mrs. Gus
| Peret. of Oregon.
Cleveland, 0., boasts of sisters who '
are eperts with the rlfie and shotgun. ]
They are Miss Alice Goertz and Mrs.
Fernpage.
A 16-year-old girl did the best shoot- I
ing in the Beginners' Day event for j
women in Philadelphia. "Phe young l
i lady is Miss Leaphy C. Gough. She j
accompanies her father to the shoots j
every Saturday, and with a 20-gauge
sun averages better than 70.

, season, but it has been learned that
Manager Callahan favors passing up
i Hot Springs for a trip to the Coast,
j Callahan has trained there before,
j going there with the Chicago White
Sox. It is thought with Wagner in
! the line-up the Pirates would attract
big crowds in the California cities
i 1 enroute.
i Here is a good boost for "Red"
| Calhoun: "Fred Walker, who several
! years ago was a sensation in baseball
as Mysterious Mitchell in the Pacific
| Coast League and later pitched In the
j National League will be with Cin
cinnati next season. He worked for
the Albany and Utica clubs of the
I New York State League the season
j that just closed and he made a rec
ord, pitching in 45 games from May
4 to September 9. He won 23 games
lost 16, tied two and finished out four,
i being in 346 1-3 Innings. In his last
three games he permitted but three
hits in each and Utica finished in
sixth place. Walker has a high re
gard of "Red" Calhoun's ability in!
managing. 'Ball players who have
been in the majors and were in the
State League last year say Calhoun
I was the best in the circuit,' says
I Walker. Continuing he stated that
[ "Red" knows more baseball than
! some of the managers he played for
in the majors."—Pittsburgh Commer

SOME EASY MOSTEY
A one dollar parlay on the Giants to
i win 20 straight games would give the
; winner odds of 2,037,151 to 1.
I In other words, if a better put up
| one dollar at even money on the game
played September 7 and ho continued
| to follow the fortune of the Giants
in each game, betting the entire amount
each day, he would now have a bank
roll of $2,097,152, provided, of course,
, that he would have placed his bet each

Reading Players For Giants;
Buy Pitcher Bill Donohue
Three Reading New York State
League players are likely to be seen
with the New York Giants next sea
son. Pitcher Bill Donohue, the lead
ing pitcher of the Reading team/ this
sensor., is McGraw's latest acquisition.
Donohue was sent to the New York
State League team from Detroit last
seascn. He was not recalled or draft
ed, but after the season closed here
Dr. F. N. Tate sold him to the Giants
on the optional agreement. Dr. Tate
will, therefore, get a stipulated amount
for Donohue if he makes good. The
!>iteher's home is at Scranton.
In an exhibition game at New Ha
ven, Conn., last Sunday, Donahue, who
is now with the Giants, did some of
the pitching. The New Yorkers siet
a club composed of former Federal
Leagye players and won by a score of
8-5. Donahue pitched the last two
innings, after five runs had been made
on Pie Way, the Yale star. Bill did
not allow a batter to got as far as first
base in the two rounds that he served.
Bill Scheppner, third baseman, and
Babington, outfielder, who were with
the Reading team, are members of
the Giants.
In addition to the sale of Donohue
by the optional agreement, Dr. Tate
gets $750 for "Lefty" Gerner, who was
drafted by Cincinnati.
New York Wins Two More;
Eliminate Boston Red Sox
New York, Sept. 29. Boston was
virtually eliminated from the Na
tional League pennant race here yes
terday, when New York twice defeated
the visitors, 2 to 0 and 6 to 0. The
victories boosted the New York's
winning streak of twenty-five straight
games.
Schupp gave another finished per
formance in the second game. Not
a man reached base against him until
the sixth inning, when Blackburn
walked. Konetchy got the only hit,
a single in the seventh. These two
were the only players to reach first
base. Benny Kauff hit a home run
in the third inning of the second con
test with the bases full. In this in
ning Gowdy was banished from the
game for disputing a decision by Um
pire Rigler.
In the first game Tesreau and
Rudolph engaged in a pitching duel,
and the Giant hurler had the better
of his rival. Robertson virtually de
cided this game by lifting the ball
into the upper tier of the grandstand
in the fourth inning for a home run.

Baseball Situation
in National League
Less than two points behind
Brooklyn with two more games to
play than the Dodgers and with
still two more games to play at
Brooklyn, the Phillies are now
right in a position to put over the
finish punch, it is quite possible
that rain may figure in deciding
.he winner of the race. The wea
ther man last night said there
were grave fears of there being a
storm both in this city and at
Brooklyn to-day. He is no more
certain of it, however, than the
Dodgers are that they will win
from the Phillies.
W. L. Pot.
Brooklyn ... 90 58 .60811
Phillies 88 57 .60689
Boston .... 84 60 .58333
.New York . . 84 62 .57534
Rain to-day at Brooklyn would
cause a double-header to be played
Saturday, which would not benefit
the Phillies, who have double-head
ers at home on' Monday and Tues
day with Boston. It would place
an additional strain upon the pitch
ing , department
As the race stands now Brooklyn-'
has 6 games to play to the Phillies'
8. If both clubs win all those
games, which is impossible, the
Phillies would • win" the pennant.
If Brooklyn wins one game from
the Phils and all four from the
Giants the Phillies would have to
win all six remaining games from
the Braves to win the pennant.
So, weather conditions may figure
decidedly In the final reckoning.
Boston lost half a game in the
American League race yesterday
and leaves Chicago and Detroit still
| In the hunt. Chicago Is two and
a half gamos behind and Detroit
four.
