START WITH VICTORY Western Reserve Opens Up After Toledo Scores First, Cleveland, Sept. 25 Western Reserve opened the 1920 football season with a victory pver Toledo university by a score of 18 to 7 here this afternoon. Toledo opened with some rapid fire plays that had Reserve mystified for a time.

A poor punt put the ball in Toledo's hands on the 25-yard line and they pushed it over on straight bucks. Toledo kicked goal and the score was 7-0. Reserve kicked off again, but soon recovered the ball and by consistent line plunging carried the ball to the line, there Cathcart took it over. The half ended 7-6, Toledo leading. Reserve took the ball to midfield after the kick-off and was held.

Kurts intercepted a Toledo forward pass and ran 45 yards to the 8-vard line. The quarter ended with the ball in Reserve's possession on the 15-yard line. Thorpe pf Reserve took a pass, that was fumbled by Toledo, and ran twelve yards for a touch down. Goal falled. The score 12-7.

The final touch down was made by consistent bucking and end-running, Felterman taking the ball over. The game ended with the on Toledo's 20-yard line in their possession. Kurts, Thorpe and Cathcart were Reserve: stars, while Simpson, Rousch and: Wuhtol did: the been work for Toledo. le 15-YEAR-OLD GIRL WINS GOLDEN GATE SWIM Miss Olga Chapita1 high school student of San Franannual Golden Gate swimming race, Mildred Pollack, covered the mile and the youngest entrant in the race, OHIO WESLEYAN WINS. Delaware, Sept.

25-The 1920 season opened today on Edwarde field in a sweltering sun, when Ohio Wesleyan defeated Otterbein college decisively, Socre 8-0, Wesleyan's goal was never in danger, Numerous substitutes were used by the victors, Straight football was played throughout the game, Wesleyan expects to give Ohio State a stiff battle next Saturday, SCHOLASTIC ELEVEN LOSES FIRST GAME Had Mansfield high school's foot- el score, ball eleven played as strong a game during the first half as it did during the second half of the game with Lo- rain high at Lorain Saturday after- noon, there would have been a much closer score. As it was, Mansfield went down in defeat by a 21-0 Three times did Lorain eross the Mansfield goal line during the first half, but sterling defense put up the second half prevented Lorain from again accomplishing the trick. The game was played on Lorain's new athletic field, and this proved a decided handicap to Mansfield. It was also played with the temperature close to the ninty mark and entirely unfavorable to football. Lorain broke through the Mansfield line, the backs plunging through for repeated gains of from five to 20 yards.

The Lorain backs also skirted the Mansfield ends for big gains. This was due in a measure to the fact that Mansfield has a pair of inexperienced wing men, who will profit by their play in this game. Ross, the colored halfback of Lorain, was the star in carrying the ball, Few forward passes were attempted by the elevens. Mansfield tried several of them, but only one proved A success. It was for the most part, old-fashioned football.

Due to being offside on the kickoff, Mansfield was set back five yards right off the reel. A fumble on the third down gave Lorain the ball and It did not take long to shove it over. This was repeated in the quarter, Again in the second quarter did Lorain score a touchdown, Coming back strong in the second half, defense atiffened and Lorain failed to score, During the last few minutes of play, Lorain got the ball within the 'Mansfield fiveyard line, but was held for downs. Next Saturday, Mansfield plays Shelby at Shelby and a closer score antietpated, Hirsh Wickwire Clothes Give You Good Presence The Men's Shop in 2, TWO BIG INNINGS ARE ENOUGH TO WI Six of Eight Hits Secured Off Lingrel Bunched in Fifth and Sixth Innings. Resuming the battle for the Richland county championship, Mansfield Steels scored al victory over the Shelby Blues in the game at Davey field and now have the advantage.

In the two previous gan.es, each team won a game. The second game of that series went 14 innings before the Steels won and both games were se and hard fought. This first game was somewhat different than the others in that the Steels romped away with the victory. John Miller again picked a good one to stop the Steels. Lingrel, former Philadelphia National leaguer but with the Charleston, S.

C. team in the Southern association, was secured for the occasion. He was holding the Steels in check and only two hits were secured off him in the first four innings. It looked rather bad until the bombardment started in the fifth inning. A concerted attack, both in this and the following inning gave the Steels six runs on as many hits.

That decided the game. To oppose the former big leaguer, Manager Flood sent in Lefty Kahoun, who is to be given a tryout by the Cleveland Indians next spring. He allowed seven hits, but he kept them pretty well scattered and tightened up for the most part when there were anen on bases. Only in the two inninga, in which the Blues scored their rune, did Kahoun allow more than one hit. He struck out seven batters.

Not only did Kahoun pitch A strong game, but he also was there with the stick. His two singles drove in just half of the runs scored by the Steels. For this afternoon's game, Barrett will pitch for Mansfield, while Miller will send Lefty McKee, who worked against the Steels in that 14-Inning game, SISLER LOOKS LIKE SURE LEADER NOW St. Louis Star Has Batting Average of ,404, 13 Points Better Than Speaker.
