The New York Nationals' double vie- tory over the St. Louis club here this efternoon enabléd the Giants to lay claim to a new major league record,| for consecutive games won in one sea- son. At the completion of the double header the team had won twenty-one straight vietories, thus displacing the record of the famous Providence Grays Wwho Won twenty games in a row in 1884, During the 32 years since Prov- idence set the 20-game record the fig- ures have been threatened several times by big league clubs, but never equalled or surpassed until today. In 1906 the Chicago American League ¢lub won nineteen in a stretch. The New York Giants ran eighteen straight in 1904 and seventeen games earlier this season. Several minor league clubs have exceeded these figures, the best records being 27 games by the Corsicana club of the Texas League in 1902: twenty-five games by the Char- lotte club of the Carolina league in the same year and 24 games by the Jersey Clty club of the Fastern League in In winning 21 games straight the Giants actually figured in 22 games, since one contest ended in a tie and was_eliminated from consideration in computing the winning streak. In one respect, however, the record does not compare with that of the Providence elub, as Pitcher Charley Radbourne twirled the Grays to victory in 18 out of the 20 games won by his club in the 1884 stretch of conquests.

New York, Sept. 2—By winning another double from St. Louls here to- day by scores of 1 to 0 and 6 to 2, the New York Giants won their twenty- first straight victory and created a new world’s record for suecessive vie- tories, smashing the record of the Providence Nationals who won twenty straight games in 1884. Schupp and Perritt, who have both pitched great ball during the New York team's great run twirled in fine fashion and had the St. Louis batters at their mercy. Schupp, McGraw’s young left hand- er, tied the Providence record by shut- ting out St. Louis in the first game. During the winning eak Schupp has pitched two two-hit games, two three-hit games and one six-hit game,. three of them being shutouts. Meadow also pitched a strong same and was | defeated by a recruit’s error, Bohen making a pair of two-base wild throws n the fourth inning on Robertson and Fletcher, the former scoring. In the second game Perritt, a form- er St. Louis pitcher, pitched the Giants to the new record over his former mates and struck out nine men. The Giants used all their six hits in scor- ing on Lotz Zimmerman hitting a |pair of doubles which were good for three runs. The scores: St. Louls (N) New York (N) ab fipo a ab 2.

E(ONE QUALITY ONLY- THE BEST Open Game Revolutionized Football Mass Plays Eliminated When Forward Pass Was Adopted- Defense the Key to Success on the Gridiron—Carlisle Indians Made Brilliant Record With the Pass. By SOL METZGER. (Coach of Washington and Jefferson Football Team.) Intercollegiate football owes its life to the open game. During the doubt- ful days following the season of 1905 it seemed doomed because mass play and “beef’ turned the tide of victory and defeat. Up till that time roush play and unsportsmanlike conduct flourished _because the mucker could hide his dirty work in the scrimmage, and injury—not always accidental — was common. The public rightfully demanded a c¢lean game—one which put, a premium on _sportsmanship, strategy and speed. Had these quali- ties not been substituted fcr brutal play and sheer physical power foot- ball stood to be abolished. Thus was born the forward pass and thus died the old mass plays wherein the runner was pushed, pulled and which, while exacting stratesy of coachés and generaiship and individ- ual initiative of players, in no way sacrificed the splendid qualities of courage and co-operation that have always characterized this sport. Yet the change was gradual, rather than immediate, due in Dart to a. ten- dency among coaches to hoid to form- er principles. But the constructive minds of football welcomed the new scheme of things, particularly the. for- ward pass, as they saw therein op- portunity to make the results ofscon- tests a matter of skill rather than of avoirdupois. And while it must be granted that many successful teams have not used this means of atiack there is ample evidence that the for- ward pass ranks on equal terms with the most powerful running offense as a weapon of attac] Defense has ever success in football. been demonstrated that th which checks the opposition’: cannot Qe defeated. Therefore, when the forward pass was given to foot- ball the first problem of the strate- gist was to create a defense for it. In order to produce a successful defense a coach must know or sense the at- tack. As few of them adopted the forward pass as an instrument of at- tack the defense they determined up- on was based on theory and was not sound. It did not provide for practi cal contingencies; but it did prove that a running offense was possible in view of the fact that there\was a been For years the key to it has team attack Beach Clinten, Same satisfying meals, seaview room TRAVELER® DIR b\ $1.25 To New York CHELSEA LI TO NEW YORK FREIGHT AND PASSENGE SERVICE sstw:w-,fij NORWICH AND NEW YORK From Norwich Tuesdays, days, Surdays at 5.15 p. m.

Wholey & C 12 FERRY STREET greater separation than ever before between the defensiye rush line and backfield. The forward pass paved the way for stratesy and generalship. Football soon became a contest of minds, rather than of brawn. Teams iike the Carlisle Indians and the University of Idaho did the pione cer work with the forward pass. The former, taught by Glenn Warner, won overwhelming victories by this means from the standard formations. The lalter upset al tradition in the Pacific Northwest with its somewhat freak style of offense known as the “Idaho s These early attempts were successful b they Dbrought an element of surprise into the attack 0 they proved the pass had possi- bilities and directed attention to it. The development was gradual. By 1913 the pass proved to be sound strategy, capable of defeating a super- ior running attack on the part of su- perior -men physically. In that vear the “Army, coached by Charles Daly, won a most spectacular and notable victory over the Navy by means of long forward passes. The folowing season saw Washington & Jefferson coached by Bob Folwell, «rise from a middle position almost to the apex in Eastern football, when his team us- ing a short forward pass, overwhelm- ed Yale and coped on all but equal terms with ‘Harvard, a missed goal from touchdown alone causing defeat. Indeed, the most versatile running at- tack the game has ever scem Wwas no more than equal to the new scheme of offénse. One does not have to so far for eviderce to substantiate the fact -that the open game, when properly em- ployed, is a match for the running at- tack, even when the odds of weight strength and_experience are with the opposition. While this may be de- plored by some it is neverthelesg a fact. It must be taken into consider- ation in the problem of attack this season. While those elevens which have mastered the running attack are likely to continue with it just as those) teams which have employed the pass with telling results seem duty bound to stand by their methods, there is a tendency, particularly in the Middle West, to evolve an offense combini: the two, which should prove best the long run. The Bast is conserve tive even in football. Missouri may have to show the way. (Copyrighted, 1916, by in Sol Metzger.) of claims today to James Y. Gatcomb, owner of the trotter. Gatcomb had been invited to train his horses at the fair grounds under an agreement that the track would be kept clear,at certain times for his use. A contradtor in moving a building stretched across the track a cable, against which the horse ran, injuring itself and the racing sulky. Before the accident Gay Audubon had trotted a mile in 2.03 3-4 and many horsemen thought he would become one of the fastest trotters in the world. His fast- est mile after the accident and down to the time of the trial was 2.14 1-4. Jewett City Takes Series From Plain- field. The Jewett City team, accompanied by an enthusiastic body of supporters, invaded Plainfleld Sunday and took the measure of the home lads by the one- sided score of 8 to 2. It was a fitting revenge for the defeit they had suf- fered at the hands of the Plainfielders the week before. Rieger pitching for Jewett City had it all his own way. At no time during the game was he in danger. Enot for the home team had an off day, and the visitors had no trouble in reaching him. They start- ed right after him scoring two runs in the first,.and they were never headed. In' the fifth Murphy of the Jewett City nine caught one of Enot's slants on the end of his bat and sent the ball sailing far over the left field fence for a homer. It was a terrific slam, probably the longest ever made on that field. This being the final and deciding game of the series ewett Cit. emerged the victor.
