Durst, alternating in center ficld with Paschal in place of the injured Earle Combs, has had a little taste of acclaim and criticism. Facing lAlexander in the sccond game, Durst aingled twice and boasted a 1,000 per ‘ent batting average when he was frelieved Ly Paschal after Mitchell, a Bouthpaw, replaced Alexander.

Forebodings ’ York, Oct. 9.—UP—There's a New decided southern tinge in the East's | football schedule this week and that | may be reason enough for extensive | mourning on the Atlantic scaboard next Saturday night.

Colonel Ruppert's payroll for his hired hands is saild to average around a quarter of a million dollars a year. The total paid this year to the Cardinals performers will not be half that sum and probably not much maore, than one-third. The Yankee prima donna, Babe Ruth, is on & three year contract paying him $70,000 a year. Top man on the Cardinal club is Captain Frank Frisch, who probably re- ceives little more than $15,000 an- nually. Lou Gehrig in pluying under him $20,000 in the year just ended, will pay him $25,000 nest year and $30.000 the third year. Waite Hoyt s said to receive around $17,600 and $2,000 for winning 22 games. Herb | nnock probubly gets better than | ed with almost that amount and After J1°risch, Grover Cleveland Alcxander is the highest paid em- ploye in the Card lineup and it is Thus there are at least flve Yankees who receive bigger pay en- velopes than the second highest paid man among the National league leaders.

This announcement was made here last night by Dr. S8ummer Har- dy, president of the organization. He sald it would be taken up as a routine matter but that he doubted it any action would be taken as the “adverse publicity received by Mi Wills would be punishment enough.” Miss Wills was charged by officials of the Los Angeles tennis club with playing on her home club courts at the time when she telegraphed the lecal officials saying she was unable to cepear here because of blistered feet.

TEAMS MAY PLAY DOUBLE HEADER Keasington and Falcons Anxious 10 Cloan Jp Their Series There is & probability that the All- Kensington and Falcon baseball teams will play two games over the coming week-end in an effort to clear up the present series for the baseball championship of the city. The sea- son is getting late and the rain of a week ago Sunday has placed the schedule a full week ahead of time, The managers of the two teams are scheduled to meet in confab to- night to decide on the best course of action. It is reported that both favor a game on Saturday and an- other on Sunday. If the fourth one is necessary. A proposal to play a double-header Bunday afternoon was nullified last week and whether this will be brought up at onight's meet. ing, remains a question. Kensington has a big advantage over the Falcons at the present time. The team won out in the first game and it came through victorious last Sunday, shelling “Lefty” Atwood from the box. These two victories make it possible for the Kensingto team to end the series in the next game, A The Falcons are desperate with their backs to the wall. Evidently there is something wrong with the team but just what it is, is a ques- tion. Regardinz the protested deci- sion rendered by Umpire “Rip” Mc- Keon last Bunday at third base, Manager John Cabay is of the opin- fon that it would be useless to pro- test the outcome of the contest. He figures that his team is good to come through with two victories in a row. The decision last Sunday stopped dead a Falcon rally that bade fair to even up the score or put the Falcons ahead. A report on tonight's conference will be had tomorrow morning. The feeling of the managers is that the series should be closed out as soon as possible because the baseball sea- son is about finished when the world series ends. The weather also may play against the teams and make it impossible to play ‘the remaining games. Many of the club members on both sides feel that twe gam this week-end would decisively end the contest. DRIVES SQUAD HARD Middletown, Oct. 3 (UP) — With the Columbia game only five days away, Coach Bill Wood began today to drive his football squad hard.

The two battlers are scheduled to meet in the main bout of six rounds of the first indoor card of the season to be conducted by the Hardware A, C. «t the Stanley Arena.. Both have been following meteoric careers in the past six months and their records compare very favore ably. Both have achieved reputa. tions as boxers possessed of a punch that can rock an opponent to slesp, Clinch has had the more experience, but Zotter is more the boxer than Jimmy. Clinch has adopted many of the tactics of Louls (Kid) Kaplen in his recent bouts while Zotter is following his natural style. New Britain fans who followed Zotter's career in his appearances in Harttord, are the sources from which many have gained confidence that he will beat. Clinch tonight. Clinch’s camp s supremely confident that Jimmy will emerge the winner, The bout will go for six rounds. ® In another six-rounder, one of the star clashes on the card, Frank Por. tell of Hartford will battle Ray Rogan of Terryville. Portell s known as a clever boxer while Hogan is a slashing fighter and the g0 is being widely bheralded as a “natural.” The third star bout brings to- gether Vic Morley of Hartford and Earl Coleman of Waterbury. Tne three main goes are for six rounds, Five other bouts are carded for tonight, all of four rounds. In them will be seen in action most of the favorites of the former amateur ranks. Ray Taylor of Terryville, Herman Fink of Hartford, Chapde- laine of Spriggfield and others. Fink meets “Kid” Thomas in what should develop into & real slugging match. The first bout tonight will start promptly at 8:15 o'clock. |Joie Ray Is Working For His First Pro Race Ne# York, Oct. 9 (UP)—Jole Ray is working for his first professional race.
