KING RETAINS — Necessaty to Play the Entire Seven Games, Final One Being Finished at One This Morning—Clark’s String of Victories Unbroken—Whitaker Leads Second Di- vision and Retains Second Van Wickle Badge—Of- ficers Elected. One of the hardest fought Van Wickel medal contests took place at | the roque grounds this wek that has ever been witnessed. It not only re- quired the entire seven games to de- cide the winner, but tne last gaine re= quired thre honrs and a_suarter and a quarter and was not finished until this morning at 1 o'clogk, when C. C: King of Chicago, the holder, won msi HAROLD BOSWORTH, National President. fourth game amidst the plaudits of the faithful who had braved the cold, damp wind and night air to see the end of the battle. King played an uphill game throughout and_ deserved the game, though Webb, had he been in his usual form, should have run it out beforehe did. Both became ex- tremely nervous as the game dragged along. Each failed time and again on easy arch shots, but would come back with some difficult long or carom shot and upset the plans of his oppo- nent. For over an hour Webb endav- ored to make the last three arches, but succeeded in getting through but one, and there he was with but two arches to go as King ran the game out. Both lost their nerve time and again, and the strain got to be tremndous for the players. Three Games Played. The attendance was fair, during the evening considering the rain late in the afternoon, and the Van Wickle games were again_the attraction. For the first medal King and Webb had each won two gams. The first game of the evening was taken by King in championship style, but Webb went after the second of the evening and he had little trouble in running it out, both games being played in such short time that it was decided to play the seventh and deciding game then, and it _was started at.9.40. Webb started off in this game, and it looked as if he would be a quick winner. At the sec- ond axch from the first he stuck in the arch, with all the balls clustered about him. Later, after he had regained the balls and had made the tenth arch, he missed.a shot with the balls not! over a foot apart, which again gove King a chance. King failed to tie him up, however, and he got a long shot and worked aronnd to the 13th arch, where he stuck for a long time. This was all underway with one rover on the part of Webb, After failing of the 13th arch twice, he made it, but his leave was bad, and he failed to hit. King advanced’ slightly and seemingly tied Webb up in the arch near the fur- ther stake. Webb made a beautiful car~ om ont of there and hit a ball near the cage, but he failed to tie up King, who made a shot the length of the fiela and hit. The balls changed hands many times, with Webb having but two arches to go. King foozled on the 10th arch, but worked around to the last two arches, with Webb having previ- ously secured a rover. Making the second from the last arch, King put his ball behind the first arch so he could not hit the other two balls, and it was up to Webb to make his last try for possession. He had a long shot, but failed to get the balls. King then got his last ball in position and sent it through the last arch with his rover and hit to cover for Webb's finai { { FRANK H. FOSS, National Secretary. shot of the contest. It availed noth- ing and King ran the game out amidst | shouts and applause just before the! struek 1 o'clock. Important Game Today. The championship is by no decided, and it will require all games scheduled today to decide it Two sames may decide it and yet these aame two, the games which | Clark must play with Webb and Wil- liams, may involve the leaders in a triple tie, requiring extra games to de- | cide the winner. Clark took two games | ‘riday, winning from Kirk and| son. clock means the Webb had the when it ball in his possession was necessary to mark the! afternoon. If Webb continues the same kind of playing he started the game with, and the Van Wickle con- test does not upset him, it is consider- ed he has a good chance against the! champion and probable new champion.

In the first division Jacobus has com- bleted his game, and ‘in the second division Adams, Crowell, Prentice,Rod- man, Thompson and Spellman are through, the last two being oblibed to forfeit some games as they were oblig- ed_to lea ‘Williams took a game from Foss on Friday, which looks like a winner for the Norwich player. Williams got the balls early in the game and went to the cageé on the return, and left Foss' with only a bapk shot on a singlé ball. This Fos masde, 4nd he ran one bah out in twi plays and took the other ball to the center with the ball in the | arch. Williams had but a quarter of it ot to shoot at, but by a rifle shot| he hit It, got the balls and ran the game out. . G Second Division Games. = In the second division Whitaker con~ tinues his wins, and now has but two more games to play, one of these be- ing with Burns, who s in second place and playing a strong game, This will come today. There are but few games remaining in this division. Second Van Wickle Medal. For the, second Van Wickle medal Whitaker hae played a great game, and -on Friday evening took ehe fourth and kinning game from Crowell in easy style. Crowell entered the con- test this yvear with no practice, but put up & good game. A new holder will come here with the medal nexs year, it is probable, as it is expected Whitaker will win first or second po- sition in the division, which will put him_into the first division next year. In that case he will probably turn the medal over to some other member of the Forest City club of Springfield to defend next vear. Whitaked playes a careful and con- sistent game. He carried his first bal\ as far as the stake in this final medal game. Crowell then made three arches and slipped up, after which Whitaker with his second ball made a home run in first division form and won the game. An Unusual Shot. In his game with Miner he made one of the cleverest shots on the grounds. He was for the last arch and in fme position, but the ball he was playing off of rolled directly in front of the arch.

Rodman of the Necrol- ogy committee, made the following re- port which was accepted: In the midst of the most active bus- iness that may occupy our thought, our time and our labors, in all the recreative features of our lives, gen- erally if not always of our own choos- ing: amid all the delights of compan- jonship and social intercourse that are like oases in the heart, we are, from time to time, in the established order of things, compelled to turn our backs upon all the things and face what some call the dread reality of death. And so we here today find two of our members, Charles Jacobus, M. Baldwin: of Danbury and . Meech of Norwich, who have 30 years been closely as- in our much loved eation: we find these absent and the committee on necrclogy recom- mend that the tribute of our high re zard for these be entered upon the minutes of this association to show cur esteem for them while living and the remembrances of them though de- parted. There followed a discussion concern- ing the making of one or more of th arches harder to make, but no acti was taken. A motion was King that the “jump” shot bz hed, which provoked considerabl discussion, but it was defeated. It was reported by Charles Jacobus of the finance committee that the d: ficit was smaller than in - previous cears and that it would be made up. It was suggested that each club should send enough money next year to ovi He started his game with|come such a deficit, one member being Webb.
