Worcester, Nov. 20.—Goal Tender Sutherland of the Worcester polo team was crosseyed by the time the strug- gle between Worcester and New Brit- ain ended last night. The home team von, 7 to 6., It was “aly the great vork of Sutherland that prevented is team from being overwhelmed. In h1l he stopped the pill seventy four imes ag it went hurtling through page with the goal as its destina- ion. New Britain put up the most ag- gressive game seen on the local sur- face. Every minute, it seemed, Sutherland was being peppered by drives or hooks from some cf the visiting agsregation Quigley and Jean had their cyes sharpened and drove ‘the ball true mnearly every swing. . But for Sutherland's agility the New Britain club would have amped the home five. The Wor- ster defence was easy for New Brit- n and crumpled before the attack. When the last period arrived, New Britain went after the game with even greater speed. It was then that the Worcester defensc strengthened and Fred Lincoln was the' only man on cither team to tally.

Kid Willams scored the visitors' lone tally in the same session. In the second period the ball rolled continually with the visitors and through the clever work of the rush- ers, Harkins and Williams, managed to tie the score.

New York, Nov. 20.—How the Ger- man cruiser Karlsruhe set its traps for British merchantmen and vessels flyng the flags of other nations at war with Germany was told vesterday in detail by the passengers of the Lam- port and Holt liner Vandyck, cap- tured by the Xarlsruhe while on o ! voyage from Buenos Aires to New York., These passengers arrived here today on the steamship Sao Paulo from Para. The Karlsruhe was recently reported ‘“bottled up” in a South Atlantic inlet.

Captain Fritsch siad that the Karlsruhe was constantly accompanied by four captured mer- chantmen vessels manned by prize crews. The flotilla spread out like fan when there was reason to believe a merchantman was near. The dis- tance from one cdge of the fan to the other was generally about 150 milcs. When a vessel flying the flag of onc of the nations allied against Germanv was sighted by one of the ships in ih2 an, the wireless notified the cruiser and Karlsruhe, with superior speed, would dash in and capture the prize.

Sportography BY “GRAVY.” Birthday congratulations are due today to George Stovall, long the old standby at first base for the Cleve- lard Naps and for years a manager. George is a Show-nie stater by birth, having been born at Leeds, Mo., just thirty-three years ago today. His early ambition was to be a pitcher, and in 1902 he w given a tryvout in the box by the Seattle club of the Pacific Northwest league. He twirled in only one game, in which he strained his wing so badly that he | had to abandon his twirling aspira- tions. He then went to Pendleton, | Ore., and spent the season playing in | the Inland Empire circuit, and later with the Portland club, He covered the initial bag for Portland well that his reputation spread throughout the west, and the next season he w: signed at an increased salary to play in the Pac tional league. He s with San Francisco and Salt Lake in that circuit, and again tried but with poor suc- In 1904 Stovall accepted an of- fer to assume the management of the Burlington club in the lowa State league, but in mid-season he was bought by Cleveland, and on the | Fourth of July, 1904, made his debut under the main tent. During his long career with the Ohio metropolis, from 1904 to 1911, Stovall made a reputation as the “Ole Reliable” of the initial bag. There | was nothing spectacular about h style of play, but he was steady and | always Johnny on the spot, especially in a critical period. On several oc- casions Cleveland relegated him to | the bench and tried more sensational and showy players at first, but in the end Stovall was always recalled. George began 'nis career as a big league manager in 1911, when he was made chief.of the Naps on the resig- nation of Jim McGuire. (Ie\elaml‘ finished third that season. In 1912 | he was hired to pilot the St. Louis | Browns, and tried to put some life in that moribund outfit, but failed. The Browns finished seventh in 1912 and the next year landed in the cellar. When e was deposed as leader of the Browns, Stovall jumped to the Feds, and this yvear managed the Kansas City outlaw club. He had a good | club, but the desertion of Pitchers Kahler and Blanding put the team on | the blink, and Stovall was lucky to finish sixth. s0 | | | Frank L. Kramer, the American champion bicycle racer, will be thirty~ four years old tod He has fol- lowed the cycling game since he was a kid in his ’teens, and this vear he | won his fourteenth American cham- pionship, besides capturing the world's title. According to the figures compiled by the Cycle Racing asso- ciation, Kramer is not only the champion, but is also the pluto- crat of the pedal-pushing game. Dur- ing the past outdoor season he drew down $10,511 for his end of the money, his nearest competitor, Walter Rutt, the German rider, getting away with only $5.976. Alfred Goullet, the Australian, who gave Kramer a great tussle for the championship this year and lost to the American by four points after a season of title races ex- tending through several months, got away with 5,122. The indoor races have boosted these earnings by a nice and juicy sum. PENN TO THWART SCALPERS. University Will Buy Army-Navy Tickets From Them: Tax Students. Philadelphia, Nov. 20.—The Univer- sity of Pennsylvania authorities an- nounced yesterday that they will em- ploy drastic measures to prevent tickets for the Army-Navy game from falling into the hands of speculators. They said that they would buy every ticket possible from speculators at the advanced price and would compel the person to whom the ticket origin- ally was sold to pay the difference be- tween the face value and the price paid to the speculators. Then the original buyer’s name will be placed on the “blacklist.” Geo. E. Nitzesche, who is in charge | of the distribution of the tickets, said that every ticket sent out by the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania Monday would be recotded by the committee and the name of the purchaser placed beside the number of the ticket. Several men will be designated to go around the street and buy all tickets possible from the Pennsylvania allotment at the price asked. TODAY IN PUGILISTIC A Britt defeated Mar- tin Canole in twenty-five rounds at San Francisco. This battle was de- clared to be for the lightweight title, which was claimed by Britt because Joc Gans, who had whipped Frank Erne several months before Jimmy got him, had refused to make the weight. The Britt-Canole fight was staged at.Colma, and the native son found the Irishman a hard customer. Martin stayed the full twenty-five rounds, but lost the decision on points. Canole was a native of county Clare, ITreland, but started his pugillstic ca- reer in Fall River. Before tackling Britt he had defeated Marty McCue, Joe Handler, Kid Griffo and many other good fighters. In 19Q4 he made another trip to San Francisco to meet Battling Nelson, and the Dane hand- ed him a K.

Yesterday Cin- cinnati, signed a three years in Roger contract as manager of the Chicago The of Charles P, and Nationals. document was drawn Taft be- President at the offices Bresnahan Thomas of the club. Bresnahan’s appointment clears the National league atmosphere in several spots. It relegates once more to the common ranks the long suffering Henry O'Day. Gov. Tener of the Na- tional league has assured Hank a hearty welcome to his old berth on the umpiring staff, and it is likely that O'Day will avail himself of the position. He returned to the arbiter's Jjob once before after he had failed to lead the Cincinnati Reds out of the wilderness. Baseball men interpret Bresnahan's promotion as a further slap at Charles Weeghman and the Federal During his negotiations for the Chicago Nationals and while he held an option on Charles P. Taft's stock the backer of the Chicago Fed- crals insisted upon the privilege of placing Joe Tinker in command of the Cubs in case he was successful in purchasing that club. Bresnahan's elevation to the lead- ership of the Cubs has no doubt set- | tled all of the National league's man- agerial problems for 1915. He and Pat Moran of the Phillies will be the only new entrants next season un- less Fred Clarke severs his connec- tion with the Pirates. Clarke has threatened to retire to his ranch. Last year's failure with the Corsairs made the fans of Pitts- burg forget the accomplisiments of a dozen previous campaigns. Fred Clarke is one of the really great man- agers of the game, but apparently an unwise trade with St. Louis—one of the very few bad swaps he ever made —injured him irreparably in the Smoky City.

He gives a few names of men who have exchanged the twenty-four foot ring for a less circumscribed arena.
