SARVIS WINS HONORS IN RUTHERFORD GUN CLUB SERIES-GOOD SCORES THRILLS FEATURE YORK FAIR TROTS ; Two Bad Spills; Good Purses Large Number of Entries York, Pa., Oct. 8.; —Two thrilling ac cidents. either of which might easily have been a tragedy, marked the opening yesterday of York's sixty fourth annual fair. Seven horses fig ured In a smash-up in the first heat of the 2.25 trot, and as a result Charles Opdyke, of Bethlehem, Pa driver of Jane Cochato, is In the York Hospital with a fractured left arm and possibly internally injured. The other thrill was contributed when an immense hot-air balloon, ■which was being tilled for an ascen sion with parachute drops, broke from the grasp of the hundred or more boys holding it. Several lads, tangled in the rigging, were borne aloft from five to twenty feet before they were able to tear themselves , free. Without ,any performer, the runaway balloon made a lofty (light and descent. The spill in the 2.25 trot resulted when Main Fern, a Freehold, N. J.. entry, stepped on a boot and tripped. Blx other sulkies piled into a heap. All of the drivers were unseated, the horses with their riderless sulkies continuing about the track. Though Jane Cochato trotted about three miles before she was caught, and was set back to twelfth place, she con tinued in the race and won it by taking the riext three heats.

ISCALPERSPLAN FOR BIG SALES Chicago Officials to Co-oper ate With Police Depart ment to Prevent It Chicago, Oct. 3. —With the arrival of the first out-of-town contingent for the world's series the prices of tickets for the three Chicago games were sent skyward by scalpers, who insist they will be able to supply pur chasers who failed to get seats through the regular channels. Although tKe reserved seat tickets and the box seats will not be dis tributed to purchasers until Thursday scalpers are accepting deposits on orders and are asking SSO for a $5 box seat for three games and $35 for stand seats which sold for $1.50 each. \A hat system the speculators are us ing In their attempts to obtain tickets is puzzling officials of the Chicago Americans, as all tickets are regis tered and numbered, and the appli cants will be obliged to call person ally for their allotment. A Chicagoan who balked at the prices demanded by scalpers inserted an advertise ment in a. newspaper yesterday, of fering S2O for two grandstand seats for the first two games. Hot After Scalpers Samuel A. Ettelson, corporation counsel. Joined the fight with Presi dent Comiskey, of the Chicago club, against scalping. Ettelson will con fer with Chief of Police Schuettler for the purpose of enlisting the aid of the police. "We are going after the scalpers hard," Ettelson said. "There will be complete co-operation between the city and the management of the series." Purchasers of the 18.000 bleacher and pavilion seats, which will be placed on sale Saturday, will be obliged to pass through a long wire cage entering the park immediately after buying tickets. There will be no turning back. The reason for this is to prevent purchasers from getting tickets and then mingling in the crowds to resell them. Formal warning has been issued of the existence of a plot to counterfeit tickets for use by the scalpers and that steps have been taken to mark the original pasteboards, so they may be identified.

GRANT NONSUIT IN OLD CASE Court Refuses Plea to Amend Damage Case; Father and Daughter Win Btcause suit had been brought in 1915 against the Middletjwn Car Works, which disorganized in 1903, instead of against the Middletown Cav Horanany, Judge McCprrcll, in courtroom No. 2 to-day granted a nonsuit in the damage action brought by William Noel. Noel asked for damages from the car works, alleging he suffered in juries on September 21, 1915, which resulted in the amputation of a thumb. Counsel for the defense brought out the fact that Noel at that time was working for the car company and not car works, at the same time moving for a nonsuit which the court granted, refusing the plaintiff's plea to amend the statement filed when the suit began. As the law requires that a dam age suit must be Hied within two years after an accident occurs it will be impossible to start a new action now as the last day for such a move was September 21, 1917. Fifteen dayr' time was given to show why the nonsuit should not become final. In courtroom No. 1 before Presi dent Judge Kunkel a jury awarded Laura Welker SI,OOO and her father George F. Welker, S3OO, in a suit against William and Joseph Lcbo because of an auto accident on the Lykens road in 1915. The suit brought by Shickley and Saunders against Anast Belehas for payment of a bill for painting was opened just before adjournment. Mt.

Last August, a towering young ster rambled into the big top from the International League. McGraw immediately put him into the Giants' line-up at first base and the scribes and fans settled back into their seats and waited. "We'll see what this bird's got," they piped. It wasn't long before they knew. For Holke began to slam the pitchers hith er and yon and to gobble up the hot shot around that first cush ion like a whirlwind. His tre mendous reach and 6 feet 2 inches of height saved many an error on wild throws for the in fielders and his batting saved many a game for the pitchers. And when the dust of the 1916 baseball season had settled, the record books disclosed a bat ting mark of .351 for this minor league recruit. Had Holke made good? Oh, boy! Ask ahy Gothamite who knows a foul tip from an um pire, from the mayor down to the Giants' bat boy. This batting average is doubt less 'way above Holke's normal gait. He looks like a good, con sistent .290 or .300 hitter. This season he has been hitting about .280 but will almost certainly improve next year. The ballyard scribes call him the Hawk, for his ability to snag wild throws and hits in all directions around that initial sack. Holke is a beautiful field er. He isn't as fast afoot as Chase was in his prime by a good deal and he won't ever be able to beat out bunts the way Daubert used to, but for all that he's the best looking first first baseman who has broken into the majors in many moons. Walt was born in St. Louis on December 25, 1592 and receiv ed his first real diamond experi ence ih his home town, playing with the Trolley League. In 1912 Peoria signed him and Holke stole 32 bases and batted .292. _ He was later shifted to Davenport, and from there went to the Western League. Spokane of the Northwestern League bought him in 1912 and the fol lowing year he attracted Mc- Graw's attention by batting .315 in 114 games. Holke was sent to Rochester for further seasoning and in 1915 and 1916 fairly burned up the International League with his great work, fielding sensa tionally and hitting .282 and .344, respectively. This long first baseman is a turnover hitter, batting equally well right or left handed. He has one bad trick at the plate, a crouch, which McGraw is try ing to cure him of. , an< ! ® andil are v ery evenly matched first basemen. They " ave TV if o u. th ® , sam ® this season and each frequently hits for extra bases. Holke is a trifle faster but G andil is much more experienced.

For the dope n.ow heaped in massive store Has put you next —I hope this doesn't bore? There's nothing left except the game itself— The minor detail of the final score. II Day after day a line of eager clients Has sought to know which had the greater science; Whereat I counter boldly with this hunch; "I rather think the Sox have —or the Giants." 111 Day after day some poor nut, standing by. Asks, "Who will win?" Until, with bloodshot eye, I seek some lonely tavern off the beat To drown my sorrow In the flowing rye. IV When. Zim, the mighty, takes a husky swing I wonder if he'll tear off See-cot's wing? Or will he lift a puny pop to third The while he growls, "That guy ain't got a thing?" For I've a hunch that Zim will somehow be The stormy petrel of the jubilee; He'll either be The-Boy-That-Busts-It-Up Or else the Goat, without a friendly plea. VI Think, in this batter's caravanserai. Whose portals are eternal fight and play, * . How Tycobb after Tycobb, with his pomp, Abode his destined hour and went his way! "The ball no question makes of eyes dnd noes. But here or there as strikes the player goes; And he that toss'd you down Into the field, He knows about It all—he knows—HE KNOWS!" ARNOLD C. GANDIL (Chicago W r hite Sox.) To paraphrase Raymond Hitchcock's old song, "Ain't it funny what a difference just a few years make?" On September 2, 1910, "Chick" Gandil bid the White Sox a sad farewell. He had been tried, found wanting in a base ball sense and was given the or der of the tin can. After trying him out in 77 games, he had hit only .193 and the management, scribes and populace of the s Windy City agreed that he wouldn't do. And now, seven years later, to the month, these same Chicago ballyard ' fanatics are hailing Gandil as the guy who made the infield, which made the club, which copped the old pennant. Excuse "Chick" for grinning, fans. He just can't help it. It took seven years for the point of the joke to arrive and Gan dil just has to smile and every thing. Gandil, who has had a varied baseball experience, is a rattling good natural ball player and never should have allowed him self to get out of the major lea gue after his first trial. He has been a trifle hard to manage and his shifting from one club to an other was probably ' his own fault. But it looks as if "Chick" is in the league to stay for a while now as he is putting every thing he has into his play and showing how good a first sacker he can be. His diamond start began away down south in Amarillo, Texas, where he played semipro ball, in 1906. Shreveport of the Texas League paid him his first real money for playing in 1908. There he had a batting average of .269 in 116 games. The St. Louis Browns then acquired him but turned him bac,k to Shreve port. "Chick" kicked over the traces and refused to report and was then sent to Sacramento. Here, in 206 games be played a nice fielding game at first base and hit .282. After the White Sox released him to Montreal, Gandil began showing his class. He hit over .300 in 1911 and 1912 and Clark Griffith bought him for Wash ington in midseason. After two great seasons with the Senators, for whom he hit .305 and .308 in 1912 and 1913, he slumped and Griffith released him to Cleve land, who later sold him to Chi cago. Gandil is a natural athlete. He is 6 feet lty inches tall, weighs 190 pounds, and is a long hitter. He has hit around .275 this sea son and pjayed a nervy, heady game at first base, rounding out the Sox infield nicely. "Chick" was born in St. Paul, Minn., January 19, 1889. SEASON HONORS FOR G.O.

In the latter affair Alexander turned in his thirtieth victory of the season and now needs another year of thirty or more wins to equal the mark held by Christy Matliewspn, who has four seasons of toll to his credit in which he won thirty or more games.
