ACQUISITION OF BREWER
GIVES WESTERN CHANCE
Red and White Is Now a Real Contender
for Scholastic Honors?Piays Well
in Defeating Eastern.
BY H. C. BYRD.
The acquisition of Brewer to. the back
field of the Western High eleven lias un
doubtedl> made that school a strong
cont'-nder for tin- championship. Just
what was predicted some time ago?if
Western heat '"entra! and then got Brew
er < ligible it \\?-?i!'I have an excellent
Chance for tin- title- has come t<> pass.
The ){?'<! and White, with a capable
gi ound-gaim ?? of the t> pe ('if the young
ster who starred against Eastern yester
da . is in the running for the honor, and
is the strongest opponent Teeh will have
to meet
Western played a much improved of
f, nsiv. game against Eastern, as com
pared with what it evidenced against I'en
trai some time ago, and wit'i a greatly
strengthened backlield there is no reason
to ti'ink oti'"i than th.it it will be even
niun >tti*mid:ib!e when it meets Technical,
of eoir.se. the 'lech -ame is not going to
be as < iisy for Western to win as that
with iViitral, and ;t was hard enough.
Teeh lui.-> a biu lin< , one that will he
difficult to pii ree. It has two >oungsters
playing the end positions who are abovt
tin average in inte iligeiice and mechan
ical p!ay: the nvc cviitir men are as
heavy .'.s tin average line in the smaller

The gan>" ln-1 >\ < ??(! Tech and Western
wiil we worth seeing It will he a
? a-- <?r .hi agcr es.-i\ <? lighter team against
urn w hi' h lias in it much power. Tech
will play a better game than it showed
against Central by tar, because the play
ers themselves realize that tliey will lie
in tor a drubbing unless they git out of
that kind ol more or less indifferent play.
Teeh w'li In harrier for Western than it
was f<.,- Central. because it will be much
inor? aggressive, and Tech in ati ag
gr? ssive. lighting mood is far different
from Teeh as it played last Tuesday in
the contest with the Blue and White.
The eiuimpionship lies between Tech
and Western, and it will be a question
of the victor in that contest getting the
highest honors to be given in scholastic
foot ball.
Th* West Virginia Wesleyan University
el' vfn conies to Washington today to
meet Georgetown with a record above
the average behind it. It has won all the
game: it has played with two exceptions
?those with Buchteil College and the
Indians. One was lost. 7 to l?. while the
other?the Indian game -was dropped by
25 to o. Of course, it is thought George
town will win by a fair margin, but it
may be that the West Virginia bunch will
give it more of a battle than has been
anticipated. West Virginia may be
stronger this season than it usually it,
but unless it is Georgetown need look for
nothing other than a victory.
Unless the Maryland Aggies win from j
tin- yt. John's College eleven today there

FLITTERGOLD FLIES
Belmont's Horse Equals Track
Record at Old Pimlico.
BEATS BESOM BY A NECK
Bod and Gun and Semi-Quaver
Finally Go Over at Good
Prices.
BALTIMORE, Md.. November S.?
Sweeping down tne homestretch like a
refreshing rain bringing 1o life a devas
tated country, Belmont's Flittergold
rushed on to victory in the five-and-a
half furlong handicap for all ages yes
terday at Pimlico.
The son of Hastings and Fairy Gold
ran o:u of the tamest races ever wit
nof'd at the old hilltop course. After
coining from behind the youngster locked
horns with Besom, a nifty sprinter, at
the furlong pole, and in the drive to the
wire out gained iiim bv a neck.
Flittergold's performance was all the
more remarkable because he equaled the
track record. The mark of 1.06 2-5 was
trade b_\ Hallenback's Adams Express
October 13, llilO.
The second feature of the card was
.luv? fenci 's easy victory in the Patapsco
steeplechase, at two and a-lialf miles. It
was tlf s cond victory i?i tvo days for
Gwynii Tompkins, who saddled the win

too v.:i ami approaching the far turn
v ;:s i mming third.
Entering the homestretch Flittergold
was gaining rapidly on Besom and by the
time the furlong pole was reached they
?were iin even terms, in a duel to the
wire Besom weakened under the weight
n'id Flittergold earned u popular victory.
? 'harlestonian ran a winning race and
was only a length away to show. Sir
John Johnson was shuffled back at ihe
st.irt and wa nowhere.
Easy for Juvsrence.
Kermatb held Juverence st-iut
pull the fit st turn of the lieUT^ Parr's
Shannon liiver and J. C. Ewa!t setting
the pace. The last time circling the
course Kermatb sent Juverence to the
front and fated him along several
lengths in front during the rest of the
Journ<*>. Three lengths separated the
winner ai d J c. Ewalt. with Foxcraft
stalling off Shannon Kiver long enough
to sl ow.
Miss M. Oliver's Kewessa showed that

ter parties fur the students for quite
awhile. They have gathered about every
cent they could rake and scrape, which
amounts to uulte a big pool, ami are go
ing to place it on their team. They have
i t!ie Idea ut College Park, despite Uie de
j i'?-at by the Navy, that there is no eleven
in the class which can beat the team
I which will go against St. John's today,
'? and they are going to back that opinion
I to the extent of their pocket books.
Catholic I'idvtnitv is not expected to
accomplish much today i;i its game with
Villanova. The Brooklanders. in their
'weakened condition, cannot hope fop
much success against a big. powerful
aggregation such as the Pennsylvania
college generally lias. C. U. started late
to get into good condition, and its ranks
have lately been depleted by the leaving
of several of the best men. However,
tlier< Is one thitig that followers of the
Brookland school can look for, and that
is the men to give the best that is in
them.
Callaudet is In Italeigh today to meet
: the Wake Forrest eleven. It will be
against ;i more powerful aggregation,
physhall.v. but this is expected to be
evem d to a large extent by greater
speed and trick plays.
Brewer did some mighty tine work for
Western yesterday in the game against
Kastern. He proved himself to be one
? it the best ground-gaining backs in the
M-r es. and it will 1* a hard job for any
oi t'? other elevens to stop him. The
youngster is fast, probably faster than
an> other back <?n any of the teams,
and is shifty enough to handle himself
well in cariying the ball and on the de
fensive.
Thornett seems to he above the aver
age of the hacks. The Eastern quarter
displays better judgment on the aver
age than the others, and seems to have
a faculty of getting the best out of his
team. That is the one quality on which
a quarter should be judged, and it is the
main one on which he is likely to re
ceive a great deal of consideration for
the all-high position.
The two big games in the east tod?v are
those between Harvard arid Princeton and
Pennsylvania and Dartri.oulh. Both con
tests will have an important bearing on
the intercollegiate championship. While
that between Harvard and Princeton is
generally regarded as the more valuable
as far as giving a line on the probable
intercollegiate title winner is concerned,
the other will be doubly considered if
Dartmouth is the victor.
Today's game between the North Caro
lina Agricultural and Mechanical eleven
and Virginia Military Institute will give
something of a. comparison between
Georgetown and Virginia. Virginia beat
the institute team by a decisive score
and the A. and M. aggregation will have
to get an even bigger tally to show the
Blue and Gray the equal of Virginia.
' and showed. Kighteasy, the heavily play
I ed favorite, was left at the post, but cov
| ered a lot of ground.
Another of Bedwell's horses, Jacquelina,
ran out of the money in the sixth race,
which was at a mile and a sixteenth.
She was the choice. After being crowded
back at the iirst turn Dangerous March
trailed pace closely on the far side and in
the homestretch moved up strongly and
won going away by two lengths from
Cliff Stream. Colonel Ashmeade tired in
the last seventy yards and was third.
Another favorite went down to defeat
in the seventh contest, which was at six
furlongs, when Semi-Quaver beat Towton
Field by a length. Silas Grump. the early
pacemaker, tired in the last furlong and
was third. The winner worked his way
up front a slow beginning and under the
light weight of ninety-four pounds ran all
over his field at the finish.

IN Fill NIGHT'S PLAY
L_
Cleverly Dsfeais Carney for
Three-Cushion Title by
150 to 143.
NEW YORK, Xovemoer 8.?Alfredo De
Oro, the 'champion, successfully defend
ed his title to t!ie tiree cushion crown by
defeating Joseph Carney of fc-uii Fran
cisco. challeuger, last night in their
match at Doyle's billiard room. The
I islander outplayed the westerner through
out the night's play, scoring tit to 4", in
the final block of tiie setto. The total
score for the three nights' play was loO
to 1?J.
From the very outset the champion
showed remarkable strength, and opened
the eyes of those who. after the second
night, were prone to suggest that Father
Time had commenced to put a kinK in
the old master's skill. Carney started
j the ivories rolling in an unfinished m
j ning. but failed to count on a conipara
I lively easy s::ot. For eight more round j
' the challenger, through his inaccuracy,
was forced to return to his seat without
clicking olt a point.
De Cro Keen of Eye.
De Oro. on the contrary, was keen of
eye and steady of touch, and during the
iirst nine rounds gathered in a total of
five. The Cuban showed remarkably
good control over the balls, whether ho
played for points or for safety. Carney
was not so sure and iie missed shots by
much wider margins t;;an his adversary,
and iie seemed unable to play the title
hoider sate.
Beginning with the tenth inning the
man from ihe coast broke into tiie scor
. iiiK column for tli ? lirst time, and run
jr.iug ui> to the tweiity-seveytn he showed
I some oi Hit: toim that iiclpeu to push lii.n
j into tiie lead Thursday night. .tithougn
in this section of the contest Carney s
best run was three, lie grabbed oit' ones
fairly ofti n, while De mo went scoreless,
and at the twenty-seventh was only two
points benlmi the Cuban for the nighl,
the score being, Carney, 1U; D oro, 1-.
In the twtmy-nj^|fiili, from a bad
W ... V? IV
leave, De O.oljtae a beautiful shot
and followed lf^fp with eight more,
each one surpassing'its predecessor in
brilliancy. The run of nine is only two
behind the 'match record o'f eleven,
which is credited to the Cuban. Carney
had a string of ten goose eggs, start
ing from tne same round, while the
champion foiged steadily ahead until
lie evened the match in the thirty
fourth.
De Oro Takes the Lead.
A run of five put the islander in the
lead .in the thirty-eighth inning. Car
[ ney squared things in the iorty-rirst,
j but De Oro cane- right back in his turn
? at the table and collected two iilol'e,
which put him in front again. From
that time on ihe Cuban puued away
from the challenger steadily, a run of
seven in the nity-third helping him
materially, until dt the sixty-sixth in
ning he led in the match at 1-J2 to 128
and on the block at 66 to -8.
Carney rallied at this point, and
playing more steadily than he had in
the early rounds pulled up to 1 tu in
ihe eightieth inning, when lie nursed
the ivories for a run of seven. in
fifteen rounds, from the sixty-seventh
to the eighty-first, the Cuban made
only one point, and the score stood at
14:; to 14U, be Oro leading.
Carney continued ? to show grand
, form and brought the spectators to
-their feet wllell lie tied lib- .score in
the eighiy-second by running three.
L>.- oro tailteu one in his halt" and took
the lead, never to be headed. The
champion made four in ihe eighty
fourth and finished with two in the
eighty-seventh, his la?st two caroms
being on a par with other brilliant
shots that he had made earlier.
Sherwood Magee said last night that he
wouldn't become manager of* a Federal
League team for a million. The star left
fielder wants to stick witn the I'hils. in
cidentally. Mr. Magee declared that the
report that Billy Murray wanted to trade
him to New York several years a^o was
untrue. As a matter of fact, it was Mur
ray who blocked the deal. A buttinsky
obtained an option on tlx I'hils and at
tempted to dismiss Murray and trade Ma
gee to New York. Murray flashed his
contract and slaved. So did Magee.?

Special Dispatch to The Slur.
PHILADELPHIA, November s.?Several
of the major league clubs are worry
ing these days over their training
plans for next season, while others have

Braves and Naps in Mix-Up.
Quite a mix-up has occurred between
the Boston Nationals and the Cleveland
Americans, both of which have selected
Macon, Ga., for next spring. Vice
President Barnard of Cleveland went to
Macon and made an agreement for the
use of the Lall park there for the Naps
next spring. After he returned home
Barnard received a telegram from Man
ager Stallings of Boston stating that the
Braves had first claim to the park at
Macon.
Investigation disclosed the fact that
Stalling had secured his lease from the
icily fathers of Macon, without consult
ing the ball club. Barnard made his deal
with the Macon club, it turns out that
the city fathers have the say, but the
Macon club's officials claim that the
Braves' agreement will not hold, as the
present city fathers had been swept out

HARRY SMITH SIGNS AGAIN.
I Will Manage Champion Newarks
Nest Year.
NLWAllK, X. J.. November 8.?Harry
Smith signed a contract yesterday to
manage the champion Newarks next seu
j son. Last summer it was reported that
' Smith might be engaged as manager of
j the Dodgers, but this was impossible
j because of the attitude of Newark fans
after the Brooklyns had taken Aitchi
son, Collins and McCarty away from the
Indians.
The Newark club's annua! election of
officers will take place November 17. The
sale of the club seems highly improbable
just now.
For.bringing the pennant to Newark
last season Smith has been rewarded with
a substantial raise in salary. He re
ceives <t boost of s*l..r>00, and next year
will draw down
s"iith has full power over the players
and v us told that he could siyn whom
he pleased. This enlarges his latitude
over la&t .reason.
Smith expressed .himself us perfectly
in Macon, and there are threats that un
less the city officially invites "?lhe Cleve
land club to train there the Macon club
will lose its franchise In the "Sally"
League.
Andrews Has Big- Scheme.
One of the biggest plans for the
locating of a permanent training camp
for ball teams is now being engineered
by George ii. Andrews, the former out
fielder of the Phillies.
After lealing the Phillies, Andrews
went to Florida, where he has spent sev
eral years raising pineapples. Seeing the
need of the clubs for a permanent train
ing camp, Andrews has started out to
interest the magnates in a scheme which
he has evolved. The location selected by
Andrews is about eight miles from Palm
Beach.- In a communication Andrews
writes: I
"I have watched the growing necessity ,
for a perfect training plan for base ball I
players and believe that 1 have hit upon |
the rigiit plan, and one which will prove j
very popular.
"We ill tend to ejuip the place with per- j
feet pla> ing fields as t;ood as any in the j
World, a running track for straightaway ;
work, hand ball, tenuis and squash
courts, plunges, rubbing tables and steam
facilities, and then one of the best ap
pointed hotels situated on the ocean. I
am an old successful league player. I
know the game and what is needed to
get in shape.
"It is the purpose to lay out as many
fine playing fields as necessary, inclose]
one of the central ones for use when de
sirable to charge admission, to design
and construct training quarters for the
players, each team having ita own outfit,
with every known practical feature in
stalled for proper training, for care while
training, for recreafion while off duty
and relaxing.
"It is intended to interest as many of j
the major league ball clubs as possible.!
No other place has the climate, the tre

INVENTS NOVEL GOLF BALL.
London Physician Claims Greater
Resiliency for His Invention.
Foreign Correspondi'iico of The Star.
LONDON, October .**.0, 1U13.
L>r. Dimmock, a practicing physician in
Hatronate. has invented a novel golf ball.
He has introduced even small balls in
side an ordinary size golf ball.
The small balls are wound round with
rubber in the ordinary way. and the space
between them is tilled with rubber. It is
claimed that this method adds to the
resiliency of the ball and improves the
llight. When using a driver or an iron
club from the green the impact passes
through three of the small bails, and lias
the effect of lengthening the drive.
On the, other hand, when it conies lo
putting, the ball i* less affected by the
putter than the ordinary rubber-core ball,
insuring steadiness on the green. The core
remains perfectly central, and It Is Im
possible to knock the ball out of shape.

CONNIE MACK
John J. Has Produced More
Managers Than
Rival.
STAR PLAYERS OFTEN
FAIL AS TEAM LEADERS
Outcome of Mackmen School
Shows a Number of
Failures.
NEW y)P,K, November 8.?With all iiis
wonderful skill in managing ball clubs
and developing players. Connie Mack,
however, has so far been unable to im
part to his lieutenants that same knowl
edge which has made himself one of the
greatest leaders base ball has ever seen.
?aek has developed some wonderful ball
players, yet there is not a single graduate
of his school who has made a success as
manager. A number have tried but
failed. From the Mcbraw school a num
ber of players have been graduated to
higher levels, and while none of them
has achieved half the fame of their tutor,
yet quite a few have been successful
financially.
McGinnity Most Successful.
Of all the former Giant players who
have become managers after they quit
the New York club Iron Man Joe Mc
Ginnity has made the most money out
of base ball. Not many years ago Mc
Ginnity got his chance in Newark. A
few years ago Joe got himself In bad
with the Newark fans and disposed of
his stock. There was an opening out on
the Pacific coast and there McGinnity
went. He holds interest in a club out
there and is said to be making money
out of his investment.
Roger Bresnahan also has made
enough out of the game to protect him
self after his base ball career is over.
McGra'.v let Bresnahan go to St. I.ouis
to better himself, even though Roger
was one of the best catchers in the
game. Bresnahan, however, never made
a name for himself as a leader. But at
times when he had his Cardinal team
running well It made money for the club's
stockholders.
Many Called, But
Frank Bowerman, who was a team
mate with Bresnahan. also branched out
as a manager. But he didn't last long.
For several seasons he led the Indian
apolis club of the American Association;
but In the last few years has dropped
out of 3i%kt. Fred Tenney. one of the
best liked players on the diamond in
his day, also had a short try out as
manager of the Boston Nationals- But
he didn't stick long. The former Brown
collegian lasted one season, then, like
many others, was forced ^out. Bill
Dahlen, a ^reat shortstop In his palmy
day*, has stuck in the big league longer
than the others. Trouble is looming up
on his horizon, however, and before
spring Bad Bill may be forced to look
for another berth.
Later Day Products.
Since near the close of the last season
two more Giants branched out as man
agers. Arthur Devlin passed out of*the
big leagues when StallingJ released him.
But Arthur wasn't out of a job long, for
it was no time at all until he had been
, offered a job on the coast. Devlin, while
! he was in the bis league, v.us a scrappy
player. He fousht to win. it will be in
teresting to watch to see what success he
will enjoy in lus new role. The other
embryo leader it no other than Handsome
Harry McCormick, the W. lv. pinch hit
ter. If McCormick makes as good a man
ager as he did a batter In pinches Chat
tanooga fans will have no cause to cen
sure him.
Stars Not Always Leaders.
As brainy players as they were it is
rather an odd fact that none of the for
mer Athletic stars ever made good as a
manager. The lirst to break into the
managerial raJiksMvas Dave Cross, cap
tain of the Mackmen a few years a^o.
From the Quaker city he went to Wash
ington. Failure was his lot. His career
as a minor league manager, too. met
with Indifferent success. Monte Cross
wasn't with Kansas City a year before he
was turned adrift. Socks Seybold and
Topsy Hartsel. the latter at one time a
member of Mack's board of strategy,
were tried out at Toledo. Harry Davis,
the only one to succeed a major league
manager, was of little serviec to Cleve
land. Bris Lord of Boston, once an Ath
letic. will manage Mobile of the South
ern league next year. What he will ac
complish remains to be seen. Bill Bern
hard, a pitcher, had the unique distinction
of whining a Southern l-eague pennant
his first year out as a manager.
Pecause the national commission sus
tained his protest and awarded him the
sum of ?H)U. Pitcher Cooper has been re
leased by Barney Dreyfuss. Small-time
stuff. *
