V/ITH THREE VICTORIES SOX EXPECT TO WIN SERIES TODAY; EBNER TO RUN TECH ELEVEN ___________ Red Sox Confident of Winning From Cubs in Today's Game "Yesterday's game gave us a big edge on the series," observed Man ager Barrow, of the Red Sox this morning, according to a Boston dis patch, "and I believe we will be able to finish up things in to-day's battle. It is my intention to work Jones In the box with Mays in reserve." Manager Mitchell maintained that the Cubs have a fighting chance and it was figured that he would let Vaughn try again to-day or use Hen drix. Boston won the fourth game 3-2, in such decisive fashion that hardly a ten-cent bet could be made to-day on the Cub's chances. Curiously enough, the Cubs outbatted the Sox by nearly 5 per cent., but their mis plays more than made up for this advantage. The series to-day stood three for Boston and one for the Cubs. Chicago had changes galore to win and tossed them away through in ability to make good use of their openings. They tied the score in the eighth, only to present the Red Sox with the winning run, and were un able to hit the ball out of the infield in the ninth, when they had two men on bases and none out. There is absolutely no excuse to be made for the Cubs. They simply were unable to deliver the punch when they had Barrow's team set for the knockout. Their most grievous error was one of judgment, for which Manager Mitchell and his board of strategy are to blame. With two men on bases and two out in the fourth inning, "Lefty" Tyler tried to sneak the third strike over on "Babe" Ruth. He grooved one perfectly for the burly southpaw and "Babe" busted it far into rightfield, two runs scoring while Max Flack was chasing the sphere to the fence. Ruth landed on third on his hit and would have scored on Pick's wild relay to third only that Bill Killefer backed up the throw. Everett Scott was unable to bring Ruth across, flying out to Paskert, but the damage was done and the best Chicago could do was to tie the score in the eighth, only to present the Sox with the winning run in the same inning. The Cub leader used every bit of reserve power in the waning innings' to even up the series, but while the hitting of the Cubs was more timely than-it had been in any of the games so far, the batting was discounted by fielding blunders. A passed ball by Killerer figured in the winning run, but it was a wild throw r on an easy change by Phil Douglas that sent Wally Schang speeding across the rubber with the deciding tally. Mitchell used almost his entire re serve force in an effort to stave off defeat. He called on one substitute after another and it was his "pinch" hitters which almost proved the up doing of the Red Sox, but while Claude Hendrix and Rollie Zeider made good, Barber, the last of the reserve squad to be called upon faled hitting into a lightning double play that ended the game.

Ruth pitched mediocre ball, but brilliant support saved him several times until he helped Chicago to tie the score by emitting a wild pitch with two men on bases in the eighth. Boston took no chances of a hit go ing through and scoring two runs, but played back for Flack, and the latter's grounder to Mclnnis allowed Chicago to score its first run. Hol locher advanced the second runner with a grounder to Shean and then Mann came through with the single which tied the count. Ruth was fast Weakening and after Paskert had singled and Zeider had been given his second successive base on balls. Ruth was chased from the pitcher's box into left field and Joe Bush called in from the "bull pen." It was at this stage that "Stuffy" Mclnnis executed one of the most brilliant plays of the series and broke the Cubs' back. With runners on first and second and none out, Mclnnis ran almost to the plate and pounced upon Wortman's perfect bunt. It I would have been Impossible for j either Schang or Bush to make a play on it, but Mclnnis seemed to guess just where the ball was going to land and was right on the spot to pick it up and shoot it to Thomas for a forced out at third. It was a brilliant effort, studied out and per fectly played and it robbed the Cubs of their last chance to score. The Chicago delegation had their chance to cheer in the eighth. Ruth was wobbling badly and Carl Mays and Joe Bush were rushed Jo the "pen" as Killefer drew a pass. Claude Hendrix, one of the Cub pitchers who had been warming up, batted for Tyler and lined a clean single to left. Flack tried to bunt and then hit one to Mclnnis, advancing the runners. Hendrix had run almost to third and Mclnnis lost an easy chance for a double play which would have prevented \ Chicago's scoring at all. but he overlooked the place and Hendrix scrambled back tc second. McCabe was sent to run for Hendrix and on Hollocher's grounder to Shean. Killefer scored. Mann slammed a single to left and McCabe dashed home with the tying run. Paskert rolled to Thomas for the third out. Douglas, a spitball pitcher, faced Boston in the eighth and Schang was sent to bat for Agnew. Wally made good with a single and landed on sec ond a moment later when one of Douglas' spitters slipped through Ivillefer's mlt. Hooper laid down a perfect sacrifice bunt and Schang came in with the winning run when Douglas threw the ball against the rightfield foul fence. Hooper dashed tor second and made the bag on Flack's poor throw, but Shean and Strunk hit flies to the outfield and Deal tossed out Whiteman. Ruth attempted to finish the game but with two on bases and none out Bush replaced him on the mound, and the play of Mclnnis, followed by the double play on a grounder hit by Barber, who batted for Kil lefer, disposed of the Cubs. the bowels of the earth, cooling the water and making a seductive feeding ground, there you will find in com mand the largest fish in the lake, it being a question of "survival of the fittest." with Br'er Pike.

Nervy Knabe, of Cubs, Will Take Defeat Hard If the Chicago Cubs take the count to-day no one will feel the blow more keenly than Otto Knabe, who has been acting coachi or the team and who was an im portant factor in the develop* ment of the machinery. Knabe, in his prime, was one of the trick iest of iniielders. He possessed thei nerve of a lion and never feared to attempt anything on any ball player. The individual made no difference to him. He probably has had more fights and argu ments on the ball field than any other man in the game, and that does not bar Johnny Evers, Charlie Herzog and Miller Hug gins. Knabe loved to dispute; it was part of his aggressiveness and he could not play She game well unless he wrangled with one of his opponents. He did not lose many battles and seldom failed in any of his tricks, except once. That time he was outguessed by Joe Tinker, who then managed the Cincin nati club, in 1913, and it is an event in Knabe's life that he will remember as long as he lives. And it was being outguessed in that play that caused the mem orable fight Tinker and Knabe had at second base in Cincinnati, for which both were chased from the field and later fined by the president of the league. Knabe was always a quick thinker on the field. He was do ing things to upset the plans of the opponents. This day Tinker was perched on first base. A ball was driven to right field on a line. When it was hit, Knabfe saw that Tinker would attempt to make third on the play and it was up to him to slow Joe up and make him cover more ground. To do this he placed himself in such position that Tinker would have to go around him, thereby losing time. Tinker was on the alert and instantly saw Knabe's bit of strat egy and acted. As he approached the middle bag. Tinker, instead of running to the outside of Knabe, shortened his tride and turned to the in side. Asi he reached the inflelder, he hooked him on the jaw with his right hand, dazing him and sending him out of the way. Fbr a moment Knabe did not know what had happened, but he turn ed in time to see Tinker slide safely into third. His trick had failed. That was not the end of the combat. Two innings later Tinker was again settled on first and a long fly was driven to deep right field. Tinker, as soon as the ball was caught, broke for second. He made the base easily and Knabe knew it, but nevertheless he took the throw and to avenge himself for the punch he received he dived into Tinker, throwing ail his weight into him and punching at the same time. In a flash they were mauling around the ground. No damage was done and they were separated and banished. STAR TECH FOOTBALL TEAM TO BECAPTAINED BY GILBERT EBNER Gilbert Ebner, one of the best all around athletes ever developed at Tech, was unanimously elected cap tain of the football team at a meet ing held last evening after school by the "T" men from last season's squad. "Eb" is one of the most popular lads in the school. He is president of the seinor class, has played two previous years on the football team; he was the star forward of the basketball quintet until he was put' out of the cage game last season by an attack of diphtheria. He is also a star track man. holding the school record in the broad jump with a leap of 21 feet 3 inches. In every field of sports he has excelled, hav ing won a "T" in track, football and basketball. ' At last night's practice Ebner was placed at quarterback. Last season he played a halfback position. The prior season he held down an end position. He is undoubtedly one of the best all-around athletes in the institution. Coach Smith held his first prac tice last night on the island in prep aration for the initial contest Sep tember 2 8 with Mount Carmel. The coach put Beck and Wilsbach at punting with the rest of the squad doing the catching. Limbering up stunts were numerous with falling on the ball, and a little tackling as part of the program. Captain Ebner and Hoerner were used at quarter back,. with Wilsbach back at full, and Lingle and Beck as the half backs. "Hennie" Kohjman and "Bud" Bell were at end. Frank and Peifer played the tackle positions. Lauster and Arnold were at guard with Bihl at center. Practices will now be held daily, and prospects for a first-class team were never better at Tech. Ebner's selection was a popular one and un der his leadership, Tech should prance through its schedule in the best of shape.

Makers 11 Looking in France For 'That Dutchman's Brother' 1 It was an exciting moment at By ron Murray's electrical welding and. blacksmith shop on the Jonestown road near Cameron street when the postman at last brought a letter with, all kinds of queer foreign marks on it, for all bands knew it must bo from "Sam." The departure of Samuel T. Beard, blacksmith, now in Co. C, 316 th Ma chine Gun Brigade, A. E. F., had an uncommon significance and "kick' to it, for Sam was urged to enlist early in the fray partly because a big" German working for Murray uttered harsh things about America and was always bragging about his brother Adolph who had skinned out oc America and was soon writing to Harrisburg about his brave deeds for the fatherland. Boss Murray had set the early morning hour when ho intended to start the American part of tile war with the German black smith, but the latter was too crafty and beat it at midnight. This moved Sam Beard to immediate action and the last thing he yelled on leaving Harrisburg was: "I'll get that Dutch man's brother over there it I got to go clean to Berlin fer him." The letter, which was posted "In France" first assures the boss that his reliable helper is "still alive" and: "I received your card through father and was glad to know thnt somebody thought enough of me to hang out a service flag. I won't forget that, boss, of you. And say, keep it flying until I get back and then I will take it down. If you see Joe tell him that I am looking all the time for his brother, but if they keep going liko they have been for the past two weeks 1 don't think I will ever bo able to wing him. "I have been doing lots and see ing much that I can't write about. I guess you heard about the battle with the submarine on May 30; well, I was right in the thick of it and engaged in the fighting. Outside of that I had a very pleasant trip with no seasickness at all. Good luck to all."
