    BOSTON WINS BASEBALL CHAMPIONSHIP; TECH ALUMNI BY SCORES OFF TO STATE COLLEGE
Uncle Sam Will See That
Crippled Soldiers Have Sports
Being a cripple does not neces
sar'ly mean that one cannot take part
in nearly all sorts of play. In a few
months America will teem with great
reconstruction hospitals and the gov
ernment announces that in addition
to teaching the victims -useful trades
and occupations they will have every
opportunity to engage in lively
sports.
In these days the loss of an arm,
or even a leg, is not necessarily an
impossible handicap to a man in the
world of sport. There are armless
runners and one-legged riders and
tennis players, handless billiard play
, era. apd what not. Furthermore, the
future will likely see a large increase
in the number of maimed young men
on the athletic field. The same spirit
which enables the blind workers to
"carry on" is in the young fellows
who go out to compete on the athletic
. field in spite of handicaps supposed
ly too great to be overcome.
There are many cases of boys who
have lost an arm or a leg. but have
■retained' the spirit of competition
necessary to carry them along to vic
tory. Eddie Carroll, a Long Island
CJty isehoolboy, is one. This lad lost
ah arm when he was a child, but he
can hurdle and jump with the best
'of the schoolboys, and actually won
his junior National championship in
the running broad jump, with a leap
of veryj close to 23 feet.
Out in St. Louis they have a one
legged bicycle rider who has won
several big road races. Walden Mar
tin is his name, and he was formerly
one of the best amateurs in the Mid
dle West. An injury on the track
made one of his legs useless, instead
of sitting home and moaning at his
luck, Martin had a special wheel con
structed, with the left pedal held sta
• tionery. With his right he propels
his machine. At first his friends j
though he was joking when he told j
thought he was joking when he told'
but he showed them he was not by
going out and accepting a limit hand
icap.
His early racing with one leg was
not very successful, but as his leg
grew stronger his speed increased. j
and his friends were utterly amazed |
one day when he swept over the line
a winner of a handicap race. Since
that time Martin has twice won the
Fairgrounds road race, which is the
blue ribbon cycling classic in St
Louis
"Handless" George Sutton is an
other case of an athlete doing the
impossible. This remarkable man did
not lose heart when both of his hands
were cut off at the" wrist. 'ln spite j
of his affliction Sutton is known as
one of the greatest balkline players |
in the country. He can make the j
most difficult shots with a precision I
that is positively uncanny. It is
simply another case of the spirit to
do things in spite of his terrible ■
handicap that has made Sutton one j
of the athletic wonders t of the age. J
Co. to Make
Flannel Shirts For Army
The Jennings Manufacturing Com- j
pany which recently completed for i
the government a contract for fifty !
thousand bed sacks, has Jujst been
awarded a large contract for uniform j
flannel shirts for army use in France, j
on which work will be started in a '
few days, and which will offer em- |
ployment to fifty experienced shirt
operators. The size of future con- j
tracts is limited only the number of ;
operators obtained. The opportunity
offered to women who have fit some
time or other worked on shirts pres- |
ents ideal working, conditions, with;
good pay, and the performance of a j
patriotic duty that a large number j
of shirts may be delivered in the !
shortest possible time. Additional j
machines will be set up as needed.
The work will be done in the large
new building of the Jennings Manu
facturing Company on North Fourth
street.
FOOTBALL AT STATE TODAY
State College, Pa., Sept. 12.
Hugo Bezdek, Pennsylvania State's
new director of physical education
and athletics, has summoned all can- |
didates for the Blue and White's foot
ball eleven for preliminary practice;
to-day. Although the college
will not reopen until September 25,;
State's players were notified to re-;
port early in order to get into con
dition for the opening game with
Muhlenburg College here on Sep
tember 28. Word has come that
Captain-elect Robb, the brilliant'
baekfield player, will not return this!
season. He has been at the students'
military training camp at Platstburg
this summer and expects to enter an
officers' camp.
Third Major League,
Predicts Bill Phelan
Instead of waning, baseball is
to develop in this country, main
tains Billy Phelan. one of the
Xestors of diamond lore. It is al
.niost certain, predicts he, that
there will be a third major league
and it will not be any out-law
organization, either.
"New and changed conditions
.will force the creation of the third
major body; it will be upheld and
fostered by the magnates, and it
will take its place with the Na
tional and American, unchal
lenged. Such leaders as August
Herrmann and Charles Comis
key are beginning to see the hand
writing on the wall, and even
Ban Johnson has lately been con
vinced that the third league is
bound to come.
"Several conditions will con
tribute to the rising of the new
league. The great increase in
. population in some cities that
* now have Class AA baseball is
one thing. Another contributing
cause will be the growth in the
number of fans caused by the re
turn of soldiers. Alyriaids of
young fellows, who heretofore had
not cared much for baseball, have
become devoted adherents, and
these lads will demand first class
entertainment when fhey come
home.
"Cleveland has grown to such
size that it can easily support two
cjubs. So has Detroit, while Bal
timore, Indianapolis, Minneapolis,
Kansas City and Toronto now
have the needed slock of fans.
Be it remembered, also, that there
will be a large flock of star players
on hand when the boys get home.
Despite the tribulations of the
current year, the various clubs
filled their ranks and developed
many new stars. When the fel_
lows now In service return there
will he far too many players for
two leagues and a third league
'an be equipped with excellent
r-.rltericl.
THURSDAx EVENING, aammburg SEPTEMBER 12, 19i8'.
Only recently Louis Martucci, a one
armed golfer, gave exhibitions that
showed what a cripple with superior
morale can accomplish. Two years
ago Dartmouth College had a one
armed guard who was a terror to
opposing teams—Neely by name.
But perhaps the most interesting
of disabled men in sports to-day is
Lieutenant Frank Sutton, ' who lost
his right arm at Gallipoii, whereby
hangs a thrilling narrative.
During that campaign which cost
the British so many lives there was
a hand-tossing grenade contest be
tween the Turks and the British.
These grenades have time fuses and
time after time th* Turks, would
hurl the grenades only to have Lieu
tenant Sutton and the men in his
company catch them and hurl them
back where they did terrific damage
to the Turks. Finnally one Turk
caught on, so he counted four before
he hurled his grenade and the lieu
tenant missed it.
Realizing that any moment it would
j explode and kill a number of men
nearby be pushed it or tried to push
It into the ground with his right arm.
A moment later he knew he was out
of the trelch, but he had no Idea
his right got out. He saw a Turk |
coming and reached for his revolver
with his right hand and ohly then
was he aware that he no longer had
a right hand. But that did not stop
him and with his left hand he killed
his Turk. And he fought on till dusk
and when they got him back to the
hospital they had no anesthetics, so
three men sat on him while they re
moved what was left of his right arm
below the elbotv.
He Is a big, handsome chap and ex
tremely popular. He is an expert
,on ordnance and he has several pat
ents on large'and small guns that are
j being used by the Allied forces. And
i what is more, he is anxious to get
I back into action against the Huns.
Before the big war he was a plus
2 man at Walton Heath, one of the
famous courses near London. Since
he has been in this country he has
taken up the game again and. unlike
I others who have lost their ri#ht hand,
| he still plays the same style that he
did when he had both hands, except
that, of course, the left hand only is
used. He does not usAany artificial
contraption for the right arm.
He has been on the green of the
eighteenth a number of times in two
shots, and that is no mean feat for
a man with two good hands, and he
has frequently made fours on that
hole. He has driven the long fifth
hole a number of times, and there the.
| carry is about 190 yards. And he
j plays the course anywhere from 92
Ito 100 strokes, and he has been
around Huntingdon Valley in 86. Of
! course, his greatest difficulty is with
the bunker shots, for it is not an
! easy matter to get tinder the ball
] and through the heavy sand at Pine
| Valley.

Boston Wins World's Series
Beating Chicago National? 2-1
Recalling the historic "muff" made
by Snodgrass in 1912, the world ser
ies was won by the Boston Red SoX
yesterday through very much the
same sort of mishap, the offender be
ing Outfielder Max Flack.* It was the
sixth game of the series and by win
ning it the Red Sox established a
record of taking rive world cham
pionships in as many starts.
The defeat was a bitter disappoint
ment to the Cubs and the Chicago
contingent. The Cubs were confident
of beating Mays And. after tying up
the series, could see nothing but vic
tory in the deciding game to-morrow,
with big Jim Vaughn back on the
rubber. But Mays proved harder for
them to-day than in the game at
Chicago, aPd while lucky to win,
he outpitched Tyler. Two of the
three hits made oft him came in one
inning and Chicago threw away its
own chances of at least tying the
score by careless work on the bases.
The muff that placed Max Flack's
name on a par with that of Fred
Snodgrass did not affect Tyler's
pitching. He proved a pitcher with
a heart of steel, as well as a puzzling
delivery and a clever head by work
ing himself out of the tightest kind
of a position in the very next inning,
and held the Sox to one single during
the rest of the time he occupied the
mound.
Flack's muff came in the third
inning with two out and runners on
second and third. It was a line drive
from Whiteman's bat straight at the
Cub outfielder and two runs trickled
over the plate when the ball fficked
out of Flack's mitt and rolled yards
away. Whiteman was held on first,
but in trying to take third on an in
field hit by Mclnnis, was nipped on a
pretty relay from Merkle.
Chicago had a golden opportunity
to tie the count in their fourth in
ning, hut Schang and Mclnnis caught
Leslie Mann, the "Sam Gompers" of
the baseball strike, napping oft first
base and Merkle's single which fol
Tech Alumni, With Many Athletes,
Flocking Now to State College
War-time conditions do not pre
vent Technical High school gradu
ates from pursuing learning in high
er courses. More alumni will go out
from Tech's halls to colleges and
universities this fall than ever be
fore. Twenty-five graduates have al
ready had their certificates of en
trance filled out, and another dozen
have made application for admit
tance to college. Penn State is the
favorite this year, possibly because
of the well-established military drill
that has featured the work of that
institution during many years. Fif
teen more Maroon lads will go to
State in addition to those who en
tered from the class at the middle of
last year, through a special ruling of
the college faculty.
Among the students to enter col
lege are some of Tech's best athletes.
Rees Lloyd, captain of last season's
team entered in February. Fred
Huston, basketball captain, has cast
his fortune at State. Glenn Beard,
manager and captain of the tennis
squad will also go to the Center
county institution. ,So that three of
last vear's athletic captains will go
from Tech to State. Just what it
means to be a captain at Tech, is
better understood when it is taken
into consideration that Tech was the
acknowledged champion of Pennsyl
vania in the high school rank, in
football, basketball and track. In all
three sports the Maroon was without
a peer. , , ~ _
Other athletes include. Jerry
Frock, football center, and ylrough, a
tackle. Koons and Minick took a
prominent part in Tech track sports.
"Luch" Miller, a basketball forward,
will attend the University of Michi
gan "Cliff" Wingard was a star
Maroon outfielder, and has matri
culated at Penn. The Sourbier broth
ers should also make good basketball
material for a State College quintet.
Going to Penn State are: Samuel
Arch, Frederick Beecher, George
Fisher Jerry Frock, Frederick Hus

James Minick, Glenwood Beard, Jo-

Billiard Champ Hoppe
Wins Draft Appeal
The appeal of Willie Hoppe,
world's billiard champion, against
being placed in Class 1 A of the
ijraft under the "work-or-fight"
rule was upheld by the district
board of New York, it was an
' nounced to-day. Hoppe's local
board had placed him in Class 4 A
oecause of dependants, but recent
ly placed him in the top class, de
claring that billiard playijig as an
occupation was nonessential. The
district board, however, gave him
his original classicatlon. Hoppe
will soon start on an exhibition
:our for the benefit of the Red
Cross.
lowed a base on balls to Paskert
drove only one run over the plate in
stead of two. Neither side could
score after this inning. Mays holding
the Cubs hitless for five innings.
While the three gathered by the Red
Sox off Tyler proved nonproductive.
A crowd of about 15,000 was "in
at the death" of the great national
pastime. Heavy overcoats*and furs
were much in evidence. The strong
wind that blew off the bay sent shiv
ers trickling down the spines of even
the warmest-hearted rooter. The strike
of the ballplayers on the previous
' day had its effect on the attendance
; and Boston's baseball public failed to
| turn out as it did on the two previous
days. During the morning the play
ers' strike committee held a confer
ence with the owners of the Boston
and Chicago clubs, but if they came
to any agreement that will add to the
winners' and losers' share of the prize
money no official announcement was
I made of it. President Weeghman
i said: "The players were very fair in
, their demands." The players said:
i "The owners Have promised to talk
; things over again at the park this
■ afternoon/' And President Frazee,
!of the So.\ said latfr: "No agree
! ment has been reached. We have
| promised nothing to the players. Why
should we?" It was understood,
however, thfct the owners had agreed
to "make a present" to their players,
based on the day's receipts, and de
clined to admit this until they had
j sized, up the attendance,
! It is possible the players will make
i an appeal to tlie National Commis
! sion for a readjustment of finances,
! but there is little doubt that it will
i result in any change. Organized
j baseball is dead for the present, and
before it is given a new lease of life
j and a place among clean professional
| sport the national agreement will
| have to be rewritten artd the higher
| court which has made a farce of the
, game during the last season reor

Tech students by the score are ex
pected to respond to the call that
has gone out over the state for apple
pickers in the Adams county fruit
belt. Boys who are 16 and 17 years of
age are wanted—are needed —to har
vest the crop of apples in the great
est apple belt in the world, during
the last week of September and all
of the month of October. The stu
dents will live in camps with 34 boys
in each camp. For the first week
they will receive $9, and for each of
the subsequent weeks they will be
given $l2.
Should any of the pickers become
experts, they will be given a higher
rate of pay. Only $4 a week will be
charged fbr boarding, the state pay
ing the loss, as well as furnishing the
bungalows, cots, tents and other
equipment. The boys will furnish
their own blankets. Those who return
to school will be given the oppor
tunity at the end of the six weeks to
make up their back work. A canvass
of the school is being made at the
present time, and many of the boys
are expected to answer this patriotic
call.
Prof. Russell C. Hertzler was elect
ed head of the history department
yesterday afternoon at a meeting of
the teachers of that subject. Out
lines for the year were prepared at
Uie meeting.
An important faculty meeting was
held yesterday afternoon at which
time committees were appointed to
look after several departments of the
school. Seating of the pupils in the
study hall and other important mat
ters were discussed.
First Practice For
Tech Football Team
Tech High's football eleven was
given its first taste of scrimmaging
yesterday afternoon when Coach
Smith pitted the reserves against the
Varsity team. While the work was
of a light nature, the eleven had a
chance to try out several new for
mations, and the players were placed
in opposing positions to each other.
Heagy, Hinkle, Ferd Beck, Aldinger,
Craig, Connor, Garrett, Hoerner,
Bohlen and Boyer were on the sec
ond team, and the regular string was
given the pigskin for offensive work.
"Fat" Lausttfr was not on the field'
nor did he report to school, follow
ing the spraining of his right ankle
on the previous evening. It is prac
tically his first injury in three years
as a member of the Maroon eleven.
The first contest will be played two
weeks from Saturday when Mount
Carmel will be played. Because of
the increased cost of equipment and |
greater car fare to be paid to visiting i
teams, it would not be surprising to
see the Tech management compelled
to add a slight increase to the ad
mission to the contests to the Island.
Added to the high cost, is the war
tax that will have to be reckoned
with this season.
