Brooklyn's defeat, which was witnessed by nearly 30,000 fans, pulled them back to within four games of New MONROE ELEVEN iSUFFERSDEFEAT Charlotte High Takes Pigskin Honors 7-0 in First Encounter of the Season. One of the best Jiigh school football games ever witnessed in Charlotte was played by the Charlotte High School and Monroe High School elevens at Independence Park field Saturday afternoon, Charlotte winning by a score of 7-0. Nearly 1,000 persons thronged the lines surrounding the gridiron to wit ness the opening game of the season in Charlotte and the first encounter of the year for the Charlotte high school. In the absence of a stadium, the spectators good naturedly "stood for it" as there were no seats, except on the ground. If there had' been seats, it 1s doubtful 'that the spectators would have occupied them long, as the game proved a thriller from beginning to end.

The Monroe team, fresh from a vie tory over, the Charlotte University School team in Monroe last Tuesday, opened the game and all during the first quarter played on the aggressive, while the Charlotte team was largely on the defensive. A slight trepidation seemed to mark the playing of both teams in the first due, no doubt, to a general unfamiliarity be tween the opposing forces. But, at the beginning of the second period the playing took a more brisk turn, especially by the Charlotte team, who made the touchdown by a trick play, Bryan to Crayton, and which was "air to the mustard," and much to the consternation of the visiting team. The goal was then kicked by Charlotte resulting in their score of 7, which gave them the game. The game was played in two 10 and two -12-minute quarters.

There was considerable excitement in the first quarter among the spectators when Monroe had the ball near the Charlotte -line, having clipped along at a five to fifteen-yard rate, but super playing, the Charlotte eleven prevented Monroe from negotiating their much needed touchdown. Both teams appeared well groomed, but for the possible exception of lack STATE'S ELEVEN BEATDAVIDSON Red and Black Mistakes Converted Into Tallies by the Tech Warriors. West Bileish. Sept. 25.

Stat Wcked to Shepherd, who returned th ball to the 30-yard line.

On th first play, Davidson bucked the line and fumbled, State recovering. Short gains by Guryev Park and Faucette placed the oval on the two-yard Hn and Park was sent over for the first touchdown. Gur-ley failed at the try for goal. Time, 7 minutes. 4 Davidson again received and started 'an aerial attack varied by a sweeping end run, that had the Tech's defense puzzled.

Gurley intercepted one of these passes about midfield and returned to Davidson's 30-yard line before was headed. On the next play, he shot the leather squarely between the uprights for three more points. State scored again in the third priod when Faucette received a put near mid-field and. by a pretty piece of broken-field running, converted it into a touchdown. The final score came early in the last quarter.

Davidson fumbled on their own 35-yard line, and Kirkpatrick scooped up the ball and sped over the line. Davidson threatened only once, late in th last quarter when almost the entire State team was made up of substitutes.

Cleveland, Sept. 25. Thirty-two thousand fans Jammed and fought their way into the ball yard here this afternoon and vainly gave the full power of their throats in an effort to cheer the Indians to a victory that would have been big step further toward an American League pennant.

But the cunning left arm of Claude Williams, the husky bludgeon of Joe Jackson and some uncertain work by Cleveland's infield nullified their efforts and the Tribe was humbled by a score of 5 to 1. Stanley Coveleskl. an ace of Speaker's staff, was driven from the mound and Jim Bagby was forced to finish. Claude Williams went the route for the Sox and, except in the third inning when the Indians scored their lone run, he had the heavy stickers of the Speaker crew safely tamed. Coveleskie got the first two batters and Eddie Collins punched out a hit.

Joe Jackson doubled to left sending Collins to third. Felscb hit to Gardner and the third sacker threw low to Johnston while E. Collins scored. J. Collins hit a hot one to Sewell and Johnston dropped the shortstop's throw, Jackson crossing the plate.

Sewell opened the third for Cleveland with a double and O'Neill's fly to Felsch let Sewell get to third. Cove-leski sacrificed to Felsch and Sewell scored. Felsch singled in the fourth and J. Collins sacrificed. Risbers jingled, York, and they must still win two games to cinch the pennant.

The final score was 44 to 0. The defense of the valiant North Carolinians was good in the first quarter, but the Tar Heels finally gave in before the deadly plugging of the Tornadoes. The first signs of the break appeared in the last few minutes of the first quarter, and after that fact became evident, everything was over except the size of the score.

The North Carolinians failed to make first down a single time, although they were shaking on the verge several times. In the fourth quarter, a first down for the visitors appeared imminent. A forward pass, Rabenhorst to Heckman, netted nine yards on the first down, but the Tech defense asserted Itself, and the chance went away, the Tar Heels punting on the third down. Wake Forest has several good men on the and as many as three of the Tar Heels stack up as better than the ordinary Heckman, at right end, shows up well at his position, as do Walker and Rabenhorst, both backfleld men. In the last quarter, Heckman broke through the left end of Techs line and succeeded' in catching "Buck" Flowers on the opposite side of the line of scrimmage.

This isn't done once in a century, and Heckman deserves a bit of praise for his stunt. Captain "Buck" Flowers was the most consistent ground-gainer for Tech and looks to be in great shape.

Mammaux- and Mohart, who succeeded him, were bumped for four blows arid the same number of runs. Jess Barnes was in trouble several times but was saved by brilliant fielding, Frisch and Bancroft figuring in most of the flashy defensive plays.

have been an easy out at third on Myers relay via Kilduff, but th latter's throw was high and Frisch kept on going. The ball bounced off the railing in front of the boxes, however, and rolled into Miller's hands, Frisch being out at the plate. Kelly bounced a homer into the left-field bleachers. King flied out to Griffith. The Giants scored five runs later but they were superfluous.

Smith drove a ground-rule triple into the center field crowd in the sixth, scoring Doyle ahead of him but Rigler called the New York catcher out and sent Doyle back, to second because Smith had run out of the box to catch the pitch before the break.

Tex Rickard, with his ten-year lease on Madison 'Square Garden has the ace in the hole on all other American yro-moters. He has the biggest show house in the and the biggest men pugil- istlcally are with him. Rickard seems to have the confidence of the biggest men in the boxing game and has had it for years. When Jeffries and Johnson fought there was distrust everywhere. Neither of the big fellows could agree upon a referee.

They were both afraid of their own shadows. When it came to 1be last- week, both Johnson and Jeff riers decided that no man cpuli referee the bout but Tex Rickard, and he was the promoter, too. Out at Toledo Jess Willard wanted Tex to go into the moving picture business with him. Jess figured that he'd win in a round and told Tex of the millions they'd make. The night before the fight Tex and Jes sat in the big arena and talked it over.

Today Willard has asked Tex to get Dempsey for him again. Dempsey, before the fight at Toledo, thanked Rickard for giving him a chance at the title, and told that he wanted to repay him some day. Right now, Dempsey is repaying Rickard by boxing for him, tossins; other promoter sto the side. With Dempsey up his sleeve and Willard on his lap Rickard has the best cards in the country. Carpentier may also be on Rickard's kneej Rumors tell us so, but we're not sure yet.

Lost A Goat! Return to Jack Curley. Listen, mj children, and you shall hear anyway, listen. The other day Jawn Kearns, manager, of Jawn Dempsey, stated that Carpentier has been signed to meet Dempsey and would toss the Levinsky match into the ash can. Mr. J.

Curley, the Baron of Great Neck, got righ up on his hind legs and let out a good squawk. Jack says it's a lie and that he can prove it, so he wrote this note to us: "The International Sporting Club has the Carpentier-Levinsky match. There is no question about that. If any one thinks differently they can take my money at 4 to 1. As a matter of fact, anything they will put up I will cover and let them write their own ticket.

So much has been wrilten about Cochran transferring his match to this country I mean the Carpentier end of it but he has not the right to do" that, a fact which was properly announced by Mr. William A.

The game was marked by clean play ing, neither team sustaining morethan momentary injury. A controversy arose between the two teams in the first quarter, but was quickly settled, with evident satisfaction, by the officials of the game.

Grand Jury Has Additional Leads to Follow in Its Investigation. Chicago, Sept. 25. New avenues of investigation of scandal were travelled tonight by officials gathering evidence for to the Cook county grand jury prying into alleged baseball crookedness. Additional details of the alleged plot of the.

syndicate of gamblers, said to have harvested thousand of dollars by "fixing" players in the 1919 world series between the Chicago White Sox and the Cincinnati Reda and other games, will be presented'; to the jury when the inquiry is resumed Tuesday. Officials tonight had information for presentation to the jury regarding circulation of "fake" reports to influence the betting odds. Instances cited were the recent reports that Babe Ruth and several members of the New York Yankees were injured before the important series with Cleveland. The grand jury will go to the heart of the alleged scandal in the 1919 world series with several members of the White Sox team; who will testify. None of the White Sox players called in figure in the list of eight whose pay was held, up by Charles Comiskey at the close of the series.

Besides the claims that some members of the WWife Sox were in the pay of gamblers during the series, the authorities will probe reports that some Cincinnati players were also brought into the clutches of an opposing faction of gamblers, who played the Sox to win. 4 The clique betting on the Sox, however, did not try to reach the Reds through direct offers of money, these reports stated, but entertained them with "heavy" parties during the series, weakening them physically. On or two members of the Reds were said to have lost considerable money gambling on dice games and cards during the series, putting them under obligations to the winners. Ban Johnson, president Of the American League, who was accused by Comiskey of not aiding in the efforts to get to the bottom of the scandal, was in New York arid was reported to have conferred with Arnold Rothstein, millionaire track man. The grand jury next week will also hear the testimony of a woman whose name has not yet been made public, who was supposed to have been on the "inside." That evidence tending to prove the mile has ruined many a game.

It isn't beyond possibility for the Giants to win and they certainly are loaded for the Dodgers, who seem to have suffered by two-day layoff. The real tragedy of the day was the defeat of. the Cincinnati Reds, who clung to third place, by the merest whisper after fighting for the rag almost all season.

After scoring successively in the first three periods, the Furman regulars were relieved in the last period and1 nine scrubs substituted, these holding their opponents scoreless but being unable to cros sthe goal themselves.

Elon also tried straight football but was hopeless against the strong Furman line.

Rharae and Speer starred in the back-field for Furman, while Hammett, a recruit from the local high school, played well at. Rhame made three touchdowns arid charged the line repeatedly for long gains. Speer did not score but carried the ball to within a few yards of the goal several times by long end runs.
