Kid Williams' Protege to
Meet Young Fulton Next
"LITTLE JEFF"
Fight fans who had purchased
tickets for the Barrett show on
Wednesday night are having them
exchanged for admission to the big
show next Wednesday. All tickets
will hold good for this exhibition. Of
course the big drawing card is "Kid"
Williams, who is to meet Terry
Brookes in a ten-round battle.
"Little Jeff," another Baltimorean,
rated as the best flyweight in Amer
ica, the same distinction that Jimmy
I Wilde holds in all Europe, will
meet Young Fulton in a special
bout next Wednesday. Jeff is a star
card in Baltimore in all his bouts,
which distinction he holds in every
city. His victory over Joe Dillon,
J last season, at Madison Square Gar
| den, in New York, stamped him as
the'" leader in his class. That he is
in the same stable as Williams, and
| the two are inseparable, is the rea
j son that he is on Barrett's card next
week against the best bantam that
has ever shown in this section. Two
| other bouts will complete the bill,
I Billy Attic'ts and Jack Cleaver, of
j Allentown, meeting in one, and Hal
! Shay and Harry Tronic, of York,
I meeting in the other.

Chicago, Oct. 3.—Oscar "Happy"
Felsch, who plays center field for
the White Sox against the Cincin
nati Reds, is the holder of a new
record for major league center field
ers. On June 20. 1919, while the
White Sox were playing Cleveland,
"Happy" accepted twelve chances
without a slip. Eleven of his chances
were Hies and one an assist.
Jimmy Slagle, while playing right
field for the Chicago Nationals in
1897, made twelve putouts, and this
is the record for all outfielders, as
What Other Leaders Say
Regarding World's Series
Manager McGraw of the Giants be
lieves the Reds will win the world's
series, while Miller Huggins of the
Yankees pins his faith in the White
Sox. Their views are as follows.
By Jolfn McGraw
Manager of the New York Giants:
"Quite naturally I sympathize with
the National League entrants — the
Reds —but my sympathies do not
sway my judgment when I say that
I believe the Cincinnati team has a
shade on the White Sox. That shade
id almost imperceptible, however, and
the series ought to be a finish fight.
"The Reds enjoy a marked advant
age in opening on their own field.
They have many players who never
went through a world's series before,
and these men are less apt to lose
their heads before a friendly crowd.
By the time the teams open in Chica
go the younger Reds will have be
come accustomed to the series.
"These games will be decided on
the ball field and not in newspaper
columns. I shall be pulling heartily
for Rat Moran."
By Miller Muggins
Manager of the New lork Yankees:
"1 can't see anything but the White
Sox. Gleason has a mighty strong
club and the Reds have a tough time
ahead of them in the series. No mat
ter how many games are played, the
Sox ought to win. Cicotte and Wil
liams ought to be good enough to
work in four of the games. Then
Gleason has Kerr, Faber, James and
Lowdermilk to pick from and none of
them is easy to beat, especially when
surrounded by such an infield and
outfield, and when fighting for big
money. X like the Sox and think they
will continue American League su
periority."
Camp Curtin Juniors to
Play at Hershey Tomorrow
Hershey High School will open
the season to-morrow at Hershey
with the Camp Curtin Junior High
School eleven of Harrisburg. Coach
Horace Gelsel has not picked his

captain of the Hershey eleven, will
play quarterback. There will be sev
eral new men in the lineup. Seltzer,
Shay and Bolton will be in the back
fiehl. Hershey has seven games.
Three other games have been ar
ranged for the Camp Curtin boys for
the season. The second will be on
October 11 with the Academy Re
serves. on the Academy gridiron.
On October 17 the Hershey High
School eleven will play a return
game here and on November 8 a
game hus been arranged with the
Technical High School scrubs.
HABBIBBURG td&S&CL TELEGRAPH
far as putouts are concerned.
In 1877, Sehafer, who played right
field for the Braves, had seven put
outs and four assists and Hornung,
left fielder for the same club, gath
ered ten putouts and one assist in
1881. O'Brien, of the old Metro
politan, had eleven putouts in 1887,
but made an error. Dick Harley, of
the Cardinals, in 1918, had eleven
putouts and Topsy Hartsel, while

HIGH COST HITS
WORLD'S BATTLES
Baseballs Arc Many in Each
Game; Fans Keep Them
as Souvenirs
Chicago, Oct. 3.—Eighty dollars for
each game played in the world series.
That sounds big. but nevertheless,
that Is approximately what it will
cost to furnish the principal item for
the baseball classic this year.
As in other things, the high cost
has hit baseballs, which now bring
S2O a dozen. It is estimated four doz
en balls will be used in each game.
On this basis, if it is decided to play
nine games in the series, and it be
comes necessary to nun the entire
string, before the winner is decided
it will cost close to SI,OOO for balls
alone.
Fans Keep Iliisebnll
The reason that so many are used
is because balls fouled into the stands
or crowd are seldom returned. Dur
ing an ordinary game, however, most
of the balls whicli leave the playing
field, find their way back. Manufac
turers blame the increased prices paid
for materials and the high cost of
labor for the present price.
Horsehide used in covering the
baseballs has increased in cost during
the past three years about/250 per
cent. The wool yarn has jumped 20"
per cent, in three years. The official
hall of the National league, is made
with a cork center. The price of this
l cork has doubled and a special thread
used has increased almost three
times. The cork center ball was pat
ented August 31, 1909. It weighs Ave
ounces and is 9 inches in circumfer- :
ence. This ball will be used in all j
games played in the National League!
hall park during the series. Another!
ball, similarly made, and adopted by
the American League, will be used in l
all contests in the junior league park. I
I.F.WISTOWN PI,AYS TO-MORROW
l.ewliitown, Pa., Oct. 3.—The strong
football team of this place have
leased the Boy Scout Field for the
football season. Albert Pauly, man
ager of the Lewistown team has made
arrangements with the strong Acade
my team of New Bloomfield. for a
Igame to be played here on Saturday
afternoon. New Bloomfield has a fast
team.

Williams' Wildness Was

Cincinnati, Oct. 3.—A resume of I
the pitchers' records yesterday j
shows that lack of control by
"Lefty" Williams, White Sox pitch- •
er, plus the home team's snappy
flelding, gave the Reds the second
game of the world's series. Wednes
day it was Cincinnati's ability to
smash the ball that gave them the
first victory in the baseball classic.
Williams yesterday handed out six
