MURRAY GOES TO RESCUE Drives in Three Runs and So Neutralizes Some Glaring Mis plays. "Red" Murray drove in throe rufcs for the ; Giants at the Polo Grounds yesterday. ' !ri •■ -was ■well I ■»• had hi* rye on the ball, as Dtherwiss the ?cor<" •would have b€«B 4 to 2 In favor of Cincinnati, instead of 5 la 4 in favor of New York. Amos pitched fairly ! »-eil. although lie rut the game in jeopardy with three bases on balls in the ninth in iiin?, but errors behind him, of which he ■was guilty of one, opened the way for the Iteds to score three of their four runs. Murray came to the rescue, however, with • three-baKgor hi the fifth inning which sent two men over the plate, and a timely tingle in the seventh, which scored Devore, »ho had beaten out an infield hit. with the winning run Be* cher. the clever left fielder of the Cin cinnati team, was badly injured when he ran into the corner of the boxes with a CT»»-Eh in making: a desperate try for a foul off Mcrkle's bat in the fifth Inning. His left hand was lacerated across the palm, tearing the tendon, while his chest was bruised and possibly a rib broken. Doctors "were called for and Bescher was hurried to *th» clubhouse and later to the Post-Gradu ate Hospital to have lois wound dressed. FaFkert moved over to left field, while Mil ler went to centre. Tt was ■ ■•.-crappy" me and long drawn out. - Clark Griffith, once of the Yankees, •worried Johnson, one of the umpires, to •uch an extent That he was ordered to the bench and finally off the field. Griffith took es much time as possible to make his exit, tnarchinc down the third base foul line as far as it went and then across the field. Paskert also was disciplined. and for this •nd other cause.- the Cincinnati line-up was liard to recognize before the struggle was over, to the despair of the scorers. Suggs began pitching for the visitors, but Gaspar took up the job after Clarke had hatted for the former in the seventh, in nine. Suggs had one bad frame when the Giants ecored four runs on three hits and a base on balls In the fifth. Gaspar al lowed only two safeties, but they came to ' gether with a hit batsman and accounted ' for the run that was New York's margin ; Of victory. Wilson was behind the. bat for the Giants [ and cut loose with a three-baso hit in the ■ Flxth inning, which, however, was wasted, i as Ames struck out and left him stranded. An error by 'Merkle in the way of a wild I throw made it possible for the R"ds to j score their first run in the secoad inning. ! Mitchell led off with a clean single to cen 1 ire field, and went all the way home on ; Paskert's infield hit to Fletcher. It was a ; slow roller, which Devlin tried to scoop up. | Fletcher fielded the ball cleanly, but in i making a snap throw to first in a vain ; effort to beat the runner got it too low, and i Mitchell kept (1:1 to third. Then Merkle. to , ' head him off, threw the ball tat over ; Devlin's head, and Mitchell jogged across j the plate. There was only one out. but \ Corcoran fie.i to Snodgrass and Egan re ; tired on strikes. One more was added in the third on a base on balls, ■:. hits and an out. Suggs, i I the first man up, walked, and after Bescher j fann<-d Uaatft singled over second and \ Hcblitzcll <irove a fast on© to right, filling : the bases. Doyle made a wonderful one ' handed stop of what looked like a sure hit • off Mitchell's bat, and being- on the run i toward first stepped on the bag, retiring 1 the runner, not having a chance to force ' • Suggs at the plate. The brilliant play cut ! off one run and possibly more, as if the ball » li*'i pot away Lobert could have scored ; and there would have been only one out. Fletcher took caro of Taskort, also making IW pretty etop. UJ Two hits were wasted by th' Giants in W' fourth Inning, but they took the load • by piling »P four runs in the lifth. After ; the excitrment over Beseher's injury was { over Mcrklc beat out an infield hit to -; tea:: and took Focond when 'Wilson's slow • rolier along tho third Has** line ctuck on j fair ground. Both advanced a base on ■ ! neat rarrlfic* by Ames, and Merkle slid 1 tinder l.*an when Corcoran tried to get ! Tilm at th* jiiat« on Devon's grounder. - Doyle walked, filling the bases, and Wilson '■ i^ored a moment later on a passed ball. ) Knodgrass^ struck out. but "Red" Murray \ elamrifd out a threo-baßcer to the far ' corner of the ficl<i.

Tlie decision at first I ivas so close that Fask«*rt "kiciird 1 himself ' out of the game. The Giants scored their winning run in the seventh, as told, but Ames almost I "rpillPd the beans" with three free passes Jin the ninth. The bases were full, with UN) lout, when Bttodsfaa iiuiled down Lobert'a ■Dy «nd ended the agony. \ Fred Knowles, the genial secretary of the . r Giants, who J.as boen resting up out West, 1 returned yesterday morning; locking: quite ' r«ady to take up his work once more. j The Giants will he almost as I. idly oft • for catchers as the Yankees in the • ■ sea ! con serifts.

The Superbas used three pitchers in an effort to make it five straight with Pitts burg at "Washington Park, Brooklyn, yester day, but the Pirates woke up and won by a score of 7 to 2. Burkes wildness in the third inning, when he gave three passes to first, forcing in a run and was found for two hits, which added a couple more tallies, gave the vis itors a good lead. The sixth inning also was fruitful for the Pirates when six hits and a base on balls off Dessau's delivery accounted for four runs. "Babe" Adams was in the box for Pitts burg and held the Superbaa to four hits. Wagner played first base Instead of short stop, and played it well, also making three hits.

AUTO COURSE IS WORN Big Gang of Men Will Spend Ail To-day Mending Surface. BELCHER DOES FAST LAPS To-night Is "Night Before," with Supper Parties and Ride to the Course. W}ifn the practice for the Vanderbilt Cup race, which takes place to-morrow. Is over at 8 o'clock this morning, there will be nothinp for the drivers to do but sit In Btelr camps, groom their cars and flg ur* out how they may win. The Motor Parkway will be closed to day and not a car allowed on It after the practice hours. A large gang of men will be turned out to mend the bad places, and some of them are very bad, and they will work all night. t The merry-makins is the "night before." The cars will begin to gather uptown in the middle of the evening, and the hotels in the theatre district will keep open their restaurants as late as may be necessary to serve the parties who are planning to go down to the ' race. About 2 o'clock the automobiles will begin to start toward the course, and from then on till dawn the bridges and ferries w'll be crowded with cars. There is everyindication that the attend ance this year will far outnumber anything ever seen at the Vanderbilt Cup race. Yes terday parking spaces were at a premium, and there remain only a few seats in the stands and boxes available. The practice work yesterday morning nearly put one of the favorites out of the race. This was Jack Fleming, of the Pope- Hartford team. His car threw a tire ap proaching the "vv'estbury turn. He was driv ing the big white car at fujl speed and had begun what he believed to be his fastest lap yet recorded. The car slipped into a rut on the curve and when he snapped It back into the roadway the tire turned off. For about one hundred yards the car and the tire raced, the tire beating the car. After following the track for some dis tance the tire shot into the air and nar rowly missed striking some of the women spectators who had gathered there. Fleming brought the car to a standstill after several plunges which threatened to unseat him. Then he went back, put the tire on and finished the lap in about twenty minutes. Ho was much amused when he reported his race with the tire at the grandstand. The AVcHtbury turn contains several holes and is not in good condition. It will doubt less bo mended before the race starts at dawn to-morrow morning. Thn drivers felt the cool weather yes terday and drove In sweaters and warm clothing. A crowd of about five hundred persons watched the practice from the stands. About twenty-five cars were on the course. The Buick team did not ap pear. Louis Chevrolet says they will not appear again till the starter Is ready to send them off. He explains that they know the .course, and that ho wishes to pave his cars a3 much as possible. Fred Belcher and his brown Knox made the best time yesterday morning. He turned two laps in 10 minutes 24 seconds each. The Benz trio, Hearne. Bruce- Brown and the new man, Heim, made good time. Starter Fred "Wagner has laid down one rule which will tend to prevent accidents. If the driver of a car approaches a car in front and has the ability to pass, the car in front must allow him to pass. The mechanic must watch the cars coming and judge the ability of the car behind to pass and so tell his own driver. In other years It has been the tendency of the drivers to keep in the middle of the road and thus pocket a speedier car. With so many cars on the road this would be a dangerous practice this year.

Bomeisler replacing him. Bomeis ler made the prettiest play of the day when he intercepted a forward pass and ran through the scrub team for the sec ond touchdown. The 'varsity made the first score by tak ing the ball from midtleld without losing possession of It. The touchdown was made by Bernie Tommers. the baseball pitcher. Captain I>aly tried two field goals Just a3 practice closed, kicking one. The line-up follows: I^eft end. Bomeisler; left tackle, Francis; left guaid. Fuller; centre, Morris; right guard. Paul; right tackle, Tomlingon; right end. Brooks; quarterback, Stroud; left hnir back. Philbin; right halfback, Daly, and fullback, Tommers. [By Telegraph to The Tribunr.J Princeton, X. J., Sept. 2).— The football practice of the Princeton 'varsity was a tlight Improvement over that of yester day, but the regulars still failed to phow the ofehsive strength exnected. Twice throuc h brilliant runs by Pendleton the •varsity carried the ball within \en yards of the scrub goal line, only to lose it on downs. The 'varsity's attack was good in spots, but it lacked the ability to gain ground consistently and to afivance the ball when most needed. For the most part line plays have been a failure. "While Hart hits the line hard he does not pick his holes and consequent ly fails* to gain consistently. "When he does strike a hoi© In the line he shoots through like a flash. In one of his line plunges he was tackled and bis momentum carried him over the tacklers, and he fell with a crash. He managed to fal!. how ever, with the ball beneath him. Not used to such sudden strain, the pigskin gave way and the ball burst, much to the amusement of the spectators. Hart's defensive playing was one of the features of the practice. The 'varsity scored the only touchdown iate In the tinal period of play, on a tackle play by McCor mick. Bredemua played an excellent game at end and Wilson also played well at guard. Riggs, who was at tackle on the scruL, also played a go^-d game. The 'var sity lined up as follows: Leit end. Bredemus; left tackle, Bissell and Klls worth; left guard. Wilson; centre, Bluthenthal; right guard, Duff; right tackle, McCormick; right end. Brown; Quarterback. Ballou and Bard; left half back, Pendleton; right halfback, Sparks and Sawyer; fullback. Hart. [By Telegraph to Th« Tribune.] Cambridge, Mass., Sept. 29.— Harvard" 3 'varsity squad looked awfully good to-day. Bob McKay, last year's left tackle, and "Dono" Minot. the stalwart fullback, both were in the "varsity line-up, and made Haughton's regulars look formidable In deed. McKay was back at -his old place, while Mlnofc was stationed at left guard. Miner never has played in the line, but doubtless hs will be utilized there this year. The college administration board has de cide<i that Minot's standing is all right, and while his case still has to come before the athletic committee there seems no reason ■why this committee should interfere with his playing, now that the. f*r»!ty is satis fied to have him represent ifip arnversity in sport. The return of McKay and Minot. of course, shifted the line-up. F"it.,n, who had been at left tarkle, was moved out to end. for he appears to be 'varsity material. Huntington, who had been playing left guard, was tried at centre, substituting for Perry Smith. With Minot out of the back field, the attention of the coaches has been turned to Tryon. who played well against Bates. Tryon is not so heavy as Minot. but Is built on the same Hnea, and is. power ful. But Harvard will be fortunate Indeed if Tryon proves as good a defensive back at Minot was in 1909. The first team had a long game with the second, but did little scoring. Frothingham and Corbett continued to play spectacular football in the open field. The work was entirely on a running game, the 'varsity using no forward passes at all. Haughton already has turned his attention to develop ing a drop kicker. O'Flaherty, Frothing ham, Leslie and Pierce, all spent an hour dropping goals, and there surely will be at least one man that can do some execution when the team gets within striking distance of tho goal posts. The line-up and th» weights of the men follow: Left end, Felton, ISS pounds: left tackle. McKay, SOO; left guard, Minot, 192; centre, P. Smith. 1S1; right guard. Fisher. I*s; ritrht tackle, "Withington, lf>2: right end, L. Smith, 175: quarterback. Wigglesworth, I,'*); left halfback. Corbett, 170; right halfba -k, T. Frothingham, ISO; fullback, Leslie. n;,">. The average weight of the rush line was IP7 pounds; tha average of the back field. 161 pounds, and of the team. 177 pounds. fPv TV-lepraph tr. Tl,« Tribune.] Philadelphia, Sept. 29. -The University of Pennsylvania football squad devoted most AUTOMOBILES. of its practice/ to-day to mastering somo new formations. Th« preliminary practice was long and unusually excltfpgr. Tna coache3 are trying to perfect some new plays in which a running kick \n used, to be operated by either of two backs. Ilutchinson and Scott were used to do the kicking, and both got the ball away quickly and for good distance. Smith, the head coach. hope 3 that he has solved the 'nd problem. In to-day's signal drill he used Mercer and Marks on th* wing;--. The former weighs 175 pounds and th» latter IS3. Both men are fast and clever In receiving the forward pass. Marks was not allowed to take- part In the scrimmasc* because of his bad eh<*alder. Mercer had his first real work of th« sea son, and th« coaches hope to give him a trial in the Gettysburg same on Saturday. In the scrimmage between the "varsity and scrub, each side scored a touchdown. The scrub got it* score on a long run from a fumble, while Hutchiiwon made th* •varsity's tally by sprinting half the length of the field on a line play. Vincent Stevenson, the famous quarter back of the W I and 1505 teams, was on the field in a suit and did some active coaching. [By Telegraph to The Trlf>un» 1 Ithaca. X. V.. Sept: Z>.— After exercising for a few minutes with the weights, the Cornell football candidates held a light practice on Percy Field this afternoon which started with tho entire squad kick ing the ball about the field. The day •was exceedingly warm ;»nd most of the players discarded their sweaters. With the exception of the two first teams, the squad retired to the clubhouse for a blackboard talk and lecture by Newhali and O'Rourke. during which, time the r« mainlne players went through a cale»thenlc drill, under the direction of Reed. Printed lists cor talnln* more than one hundred Questions on the theory of the PDort have been given to all members of the ?ouad. The answers to these questiflfis, which will be rrrurnfd at an early date, •will form a basis for future individual coaching. Annapolis. Sept. 23-Hard, straight foot ball was played at the Naval Academy for a half hour this afternoon, with frequent ( changes In the line-up of both the first and second teams. The players showed that hey had quickly grasped the change in the rules which forbids the helping of the runner, and there was little or no infrac tion of this rule. The practice was directed chiefly toward building up the offence, and the first team was allowed to carry the ball without re gard to downi Tho heavy second team put up a great defence and would have re ceived the ball on downs frequently. The continuous battering by the regular backs finally had its effect, and Clay and Carey carried the bal'. over for touchdowns. Syracuse. S*pt. ».— The Syracuse Uni versity football team left to-night for Xew Haven, wh«re on Saturday I*. tvi'l meet Yale. The team got a rousing send off by fifteen hundred students. A likely lot of new .candidates for the New York University eleven was out yes terday working m snappy fashion under Captain Wheeler, of last year's 'varsity team. In the work .that was run through, the back field displayed speed, despite in dividual heaxiness. Vandewater, one of tha freshman candidates on trial, played full back and made a favorable Impression. Coleman. another of the '11 class, played end. Although he lacks in size- and weight, his quickness and familiarity with the game more than made up for it. Murphy passed off his conditions and Is to re appear at right halfback. Coach Olcott tried many new plays and formations and seemed well satisfied with the way the team mastered them. BASEBALL DATES STAND So Says Stanley Robinson, of the St. Louis Club. Cleveland. Sept. 29.— The series of pames between the Chicago National League base ball team and the Philadelphia Americans for the world's championship, will not begin on October 15. according to a state ment made here to-day by Stanley Robin son, of the St. Louis team of the National League. The situation is in th© hands of Mr. Robinson, as October 1". is th« schr<l uled date for a game between his team and the Chicago club. Mr. Robinson stated that he had no in tention of changing the date. He- added, however, that it might be possible to ar range a compromise, but that at present he knew of nothing which would cause the regular schedule to be changed. AUTOMOBILES.
