of Sports I The Besse-Leland team has two battles booked for the week-énd. The club will go to Norwich Saturday and play the ‘state hospital team. Billy Dudack will spin them over, Besse- Leland will play the second game of a series with the Meriden Cutlery team Sunday at St. Mary’s field. The first contest resulted in a victory for New Britain team, 5 to 4. The Mériden team has shaken up its line- up with the hope of taking the second game, 1 Nothing has been heard from the pelice and firemen about a diamond meeting suggested in this column a short time ago. It is said that the firemen would welcome an engage- ment but the police seem loath to get on their ball togs and into action against the smoke eaters, The pub- lic would take a deep interest in a game between the two departments and beaucoup shekels would be re- turned to the coffers of the relief and pension funds. Jesse Burkett's Worcestermen hop- ped into third place in the Eastern league yesterday, pushing the Spring- fild team down into fourth. The “Coal Heavers" are too far behind to tkreaten Hartford or New Haven for the pennant but their uphill ight since Burkett took the helm will be regarded as one of the classics of baseball in this section.

Possessor of a heantiful throwing arm he has{; made many plays that a man without this asset would have been entirely unable to negotiate. The following figures will give a very good idea of just.what his work |t has been this year. In 19 games he has heen charged with 82 times at bat, has scored 17 runs and has hit the ball for a total of 26 hits, 5 two- baggers, 3 tha¥ fook him to the dizzy corner and 2 that entitled him to a round-trip ticket. His work with the bat has enabled him to score 16 of his teammates and he has free-ticket- €d to first on four different occasions. He is sporting an average of .317 at the present time. His work in the fielding department has progreéssed rapidly and his record shows 35 out- puts, 45 assists and 10 errors, for an average of .889. This average is not as large as many infielders but when the fact is taken into consideration that all of his 19 games have been played on strange diamonds where he must accustom himself to the lay of | F ers, it is “Chuc H Southworth; home run, Miller; Miller base on balls, passed ball, limgim; umpires Klem and Wilson; time of game 1 York wag unable Louis won 5 to 3. first victory of pitched against the league champions this season. were made on home runs.

The university, which is one of the oldest educational institutions in the country, wiil be called the National university. The purchase price was announced as $850,000, which represents an amount about equal to the indebted- ness of the institution. Five hundred thousand dollars will be spent imme- diately for improvement of the uni- versity buildings and in addition an endowment of another half million dollars will be established, according to Mr. Elrod, who added the school would be strictly non-sectarian. Saved From Collapse. Announcement of the taking over of the university, which recently was reported on the verge of financial col- lapse, came after a series of confer- ences between officials of the Klan, which lasted more than two weeks. | " 'Mr. Eirod and C. C. Watkins of | Columbus, Ohio, an official of a junijor organization of the Klan, will leave today for Valparaiso, where | final articles of the agreement will be signed with trustees of the university. The present trustees of the school will submit thelr resignations imme- diately, according to Mr. Eirod, and five new, trustees from the Indiana | realm of the Klan will be selected to ,lnke their places. These five will | constitute a quorum until other realms of the Klan throughout the | country can be called on for represen- tatives among the directors of the in- stitution. Course Continues. The summer school course now in progress at the university will be con- tinued, according to Mr. Elrod, and notice will be sent out to all last year students that the regular fall opening will take place. The institution will | be run along the same lines as here- tofore and will be open to all persons meeting the educational requirements, regardless of race, color or religion, it was said. It was announced last July that the Ku Klux Klan was preparing to take over Valparaiso university and make it the Klan university. Valparaiso off of membership and lack of funds to continue it and Klan officials an- nounced that if a fair offer were made the Indiana knights would take over The Klan announced was in straits because of the falling, an eleven Fraternities in 1920, Valparaiso sent east to meet Harvard. were introduced. These and other departures caused fractional clashes and the university found itself head- ed toward speedy dissolution. The present year rounded out a half century of Valparaiso's existence. It was founded in 1873 by two young teachers—H. P. Brown and O. P. Kiu- sey. The will of one of its founders probably is one of the reasons for the cownfall of the school. H.P. Brown ieft his possessions to the school, but apparently with some flaw or cordi- tion to the title, because Henry Kin- sey Brown, former president of the school and son of the founder, has recently started an action to regain control of buildings valued at $1,000,000. 15 Navy Fliers to Sail Saturday For England Washington, Aug. 16.—The navy team of four pilots which will repre- sent the United States in the forth- coming Schneider cup seaplane race off the English coast will sail Satur- day from New York on the Leviathan.

R. Goodman in West Side court on a charge of peddling chewing gum ana candy in the Broadway theater dis- trict in spite of warnings to keep away. ‘When Mrs. Marie Antoinette Van Wyck, 49, she said was the wife of George Mitchell Van Wyck, a cousin of the late Robert A, Van Wyck, one- time mayor of New York, and of Au- gustus Van Wyck, who used to be on the supreme court hench in Brooklyn, when she told how their small for- tune had vanished in investments; how her husband was now a para- lyitic, earning sometimes $18 as a watchman, and how she was tryving to help ny selling candy in order that they might move out of their one- room shack and into a flat for the winter, the court was impressed and ordered a suspended sentence. Then a reporter sought the Van Wycks for an interview. In a littered trucking yard at 190th streét and Broadway, with a rickety ane-room shack in 6ne corner, the un- tidy woman who had told such a pa- thetic story of her #truggles shouted with a shrill foreign accent her opinions of the organizations which had interfered with her gum-selling. There was nobody that wouid help honest people earn their own living. Welfare society were all fakers. The Van Wycks? Would millionaires help them? One eye she kept on the bleary- eyed, shambling figure that was her husband, shouting impatiently at his slow replies. Neighbors who had once given the couple temporary shelter when they first wandered into the distriet cor- roborated the story of the family con- nection, saying they had been in touch with the Van Wycks now living in Colonia, N. J. But the help, they said they understood had been given once, had not satisfied George Van Wyck's German-French wife, He could go back alone, they thought. Different ones, they said, had tried many different times to help, Mrs. Van Wyek hysterically sobbed the story of a court experience to & (truck driver for whom she the gates—the service that them to occupy the shack, opened | entities ENDORSES McADOO Helena, Mont., Aug. 16.—U. 8.
