U. S. S. Kane, Newport Harbor Wl
The third race of the series for
the America's cup, scheduled for
Tuesday, was called off at 10:26 am
A pea soup fog, which had (riven
signs of lifting, settled down again
shortly after 10 o'clock and the com
mittee decided that a race was Im
possible. Neither the Eenterprlse,
American defender, nor the Sham
rock V had left port.
The fog made navigation difficult
Two large yachts identity of which
ws not learned, collided in the har
bor but with little apparent damage
to either.
Only a faint southwesterly breeze
was blowing, hardly sufficient for
racing and much too light to drive
way the fog.
The third race will be sailed Wed
nesday, weather permitting.
Tuesday's tvsnito tnav make It
necessary for the Sharkrock to ask j
a postponement of the lourtn race,
which had been considered if this
race had been sailed and the En
terprise again had won.
Monday and Saturday Enterprise
led Shamrock V over the thirty mile
open ocean course, which has its
start nine miles southeast of Bren-
ton Reef lightship.
Enterprise scored her two straight
victories in air so light mat we
theory that the British challenger
was a dangerous invader in mild
weather has been discarded by the
tew who still retain any faith In the
green sloop. The breeze Saturday
bad a maximum velocity of .about
eight miles an hour and Monday it
reached ten. In both races Kham
rock followed Enterprise over the
course.
Monday the 80-year old Irish bar
onet's fifth challenger left part of
her ballast ashore, a ton of It, in the
hope she could be got going but her
performance was even more slug-
nsh than In the opening contest.
As a result decision was reached,
after a conference of Shamrock's
afterguard, to restore the ballast to
its original content. It was a tacit
admission of the challenger's mis
take and elmultiuieously, her inten
tion to rely on better luck and sea
manshlp in whatever prospect she
may have of staging a come-back.
Enterprise now needs but two more
victories to keep the America s cup,
won In 1851. Shamrock to lift the
up would have to take four of the
possibly five remaining races.
USUAL MYSTERY
SQUAD RUMORS
HEARD AT O.A.C.
By BEN E. TITUS
Corvallls, Ore. IP) Every year
Coach Paul John Schissler of Ore
Ron Agricultural college has a "mys
tery team" coming up, and probably
nowhere on the coast does the spirit
of hope rise so highly early each
jail as on the Beaver campus here,
This year the mystery team is ex
ceptionally mysterious, but a few
things have leaked out.
One Is that Coach Paul John Is to
nave a behemoth line, a hard and
fast line. Another thing1 whispered
about Is that lie will adopt the U.
S. C. system of concentrating his at
tack in one ball carrier.
For ends, Schissler has a surplus
Of big fellows, but Art Gustafson,
170, and BUI McKalip, 175, will prob
ably be the starters. Reg Rust, a
transfer from eastern Oregon nor
mal, a big fellow scaling nearly 300,
Is one who will give them a tussle.
Red McDonald and Keith Davis,
from last year's freshman are two
big kids who will also be pounding
hard for first-string berths.
The tackles appear to be Harry
Rent, 305 and Pete Miller, 310, with
Fred Schell, 220, Curly Miller, 190,
and Wayne Heme, 202, as runners
up. Guards there are aplenty. Chief
Coquiiie Thompson the big 205-
pound Indian who was shifted to
the line from the backfield late last
year, 6eems sure of one position. The
chief, a little too heavy for a back
field man, would be a "honey" at
guard, with his speed, tremendous
strength and weight. Jack Cox and
Ed Emglestad are two other letter
men who will be back. Then there Is
Gilbert Bergeson, who weighs In ex
cess of 220. He tried out for tackle
last year, but was a little slow at
that position and was shifted to
guard In spring practice. He Is a
mountain of strength.
Buck Hammer, 195, ex -back field
man. will undoubtedly get first call.
Behind that line Schissler has five
Quarters, six fulls and 13 halfbacks.
The key ball carriers will prob
ably be Cecil Sherwood, 174, and
Rowdy Kerr, 173. In the fullback po
sition. O. A. C. has reached out to
Dillon, Mont., and usurped Prank
Little, a 190-pound Italian, whom
Bill B rower, trainer of the Aggies,
says will be the class of the confer
ence Uiis year. Little was the big
shot of the freshman balk-field, and
In one game when he was thrown
out for taking a sock at the referee I
the rooks melted quickly,
George Peterson, a transfer from
Ellensberg normal. Ineligible last
year, will probably alternate with
Uttle.
Ralph Buerke, lettennan, will un
doubtedly be started as signal caller,
but running him a hot race will be
Art Ramponi, a fiery little 160-pound
Italian from Ban Francisco. Ram
poni played one year with the Olym
pic club, and the loquacious Bill
B rower says he will make a great
quarter and Is a fighter whom his
opponents will kmg remember.
So that's Schtssler's mystery team.
BIU B rower, the optimist, says that
this team might spring as big a
surprise on the Trojans Oct. 4 as
O. A. C. did on N. Y. U. two years
ago.

ROBINS TRY TO
STOP THREAT
OF CARDINALS
By ASSOCIATED PRESS
Once more the pace Betters, the
Brooklyn Robins, Tuesday faced the
difficult task of turning back the
threatening St. Louis Cardinals, as
they did the Chicago Cubs last week,
if they are to be the first team un
der the wire In the boiling National
league pennant race.
The Robins, boasting a season's
record winning streak of eleven
games, Tuesday held a one-game
advantage over the third place Cubs. 1
While the Robins and Cardinals
are battling in a three-game series,
the Cubs will be called upon to meet
the Giants, all but eliminated from
the race but still clinging to that
mathematical possibility.
In turning back the Cincinnati
Reds, 13 to 5, Monday, the Robins
won their eleventh consecutive game,
beating the Athletics' former 1930
record of ten straight.
The Cubs lost a chance to gain
valuable ground, when they split a
doubleheader with Philadelphia, the
Phillies taking the opening slugfest
12 to 11 and Chicago accounting for
the nightcap 6 to 4 after Hack Wil
son had pounded out his fiftieth
home run Of the season.
With Fred Fltzsimmons giving out
only three hits, the Giants stayed
in the race with a o to I triumph
over the Pirates.
Washington managed to pick up
a nan-game on tne idle Atnietice
in the American league as they
trimmed Ted Lyons and the Chicago
White Sox 14 to 9. Lyons was not
hit as hard as his three successors,
but was given poor support. -If

ing Vic Sorrel would have pitched
the Tigers to a triumph over the
Yankees. As It was New York de
feated Detroit 5 to 3, scoring four of

A HOME TOWN CHAMPION
The fans nowadays who can re-
member having seen Connie Mack
in a baseball uniform, working be
hind the plate, are the gray-headed
veterans who can also reoite the
greatness of Pop Anson and Dan
Brouthers, King Kelley and Old
Hoes Rati bourne.
Fame as a manager has almost
obscured Mack's playing days and
the fact that he was a catcher of
first-rate major league calibre.
He finished his active duty in
Milwaukee, where he was player.
manager of the club representing
the Wisconsin city in the Western
League and for one year, 1900, In
the newly formed American League,
before going to Philadelphia In
1901.
From the day he put the new
Athletics on the field in the Junior
major league Mack never ' again
donned a uniform, nor has he ever
directed his team from anywhere
but one end of the bench.
Back in East Brookfield, his
home town, Mack became the
catcher of the local amateur team
because he was game and willing.
Moreover, the backstop, then as
now, was the pivotal point for stat-
egy and defense. Mack, then as
now, was quick to size up situa
tions, quick to act The quality of
quiet leadership seemed born in
him.
East Brook field's nine was the
first championship team Mack had
anything to do with. It won the
"pennant" in' the amateur league

they began to believe It themselves.
By 1883, when Mack was 21 and
able to vote the next year for Oro-
ver Cleveland, the East Brookfield
club was bold enough to challenge
Worcester, then Just taken Into the
National League fold, for an exhi
bition contest.
The big leaguers won, of course,
but the shoetown boys satisfied
themselves they could mix in this
kind of company. Accordingly, the
more ambitious spirits sought to at
tract theTamous Chicago Colts, Pop
Anson's champions, to the little
Massachusetts town for another ex
hibition. The Chlcagoans demanded
a substantial guarantee something
like $250. It looked a trifle dubi
ous, but hometown pride rose to the
emergency. The money was raised,
the Colts came and dazzled.
'I recall that event quite vivid
ly," said Mack years later. "It
was a holiday for us all. The big

were an much Impressed and very

of the game we held our own, sur

It was an important decision for
the youthful McGllllcuddy.
His father had died earlier, and
Connie was needed to help support
the family, but the financial oppor

shoewoaker that It did not take
long for the family council to de

The trade lost a good cobbler, but
baseball gained a master mind.
After finishing the 1884 season
with Merldan, Mack went to the
Hartford team in 1885 and quickly
attracted the attention of major
league scouts by his clever back-

A year later he was among five
