The lighting plant is cost-! ing the local high school in the neighborhood of $1,700. It consists of five lamp posts on either side of the field, each with two bulbs. Some of the lights are directed on the field, the others up into the air. A white football, more easily discernable in the lights, will be used. fia Booster tickets, entitling the holders to seats at all high school football, basketball, and track and field contests this season, are being sold to help pay for the lighting sys- tem. Increased crowds are expected be- cause many fans who were unable to attend afternoon games because of Bese duties will have their avenings free. Athletic Director Roy D, McLeod is expected to start practically the same lineup that opened the season against Linton, barring injury in this afternoon’s light workout. This will find Captain Wally Hult- serg and John Spriggs at ends; Har- vey Erlenmeyer and Paul Gorman at tackles; John Davis, Lloyd Mur- ohy at guards; Dale Brown at cen- ver; Lester Dohn and Leo Benser at nalfbacks; Henry Potter at fullback; ind either Bob Stackhouse or Eddie Agre at quarterback. ~ Interest Is Slight In Fight Between Sharkey, Campolo Gate Receipts Will Barely Cover Sharkey's Purse in To- New York, Sept. 25.—(P)—If the yawning gaps in the huge ball when the two heavyweights step the ring between 8:30 and 9 p. m.

Many years later, Mack told me he did this, not because the team had become so monotonously good as to lose in drawing power; not because of any suspicion of crookedness or gambling, such as was gossiped about, but solely because of the fresh up- heaval in Organized Baseball caused by the launching of the outlaw Fed- eral League, and in order to help “save the game.” When the famous “Black Sox” scandal of 1919 revived rumors about the 1914 series, Mack declared him- self plainly: “I almost wish that team. never had been broken up.
