Louis i Detn.it IA .57 Washington 7 7'', Boston 23 .312 to this city at a big cash guarantee upon the' part of the Wichita management, will start today and end Saturday. The other three games will be played wltb Oklahoma City September 21, 22 and 23. The game with Oklahoma City September 23 will be on Sunday and will also be the last championship game of the season. After closing with Webb City here Saturday the Hollandites go to Springfield fvr three games and from there to Oklahoma City for three more. "After that they visit Jopiin and Topeka.

coming home from Topeka to close the season here. Naturally there is a great amount of speculation as to the chances of Wichita winning the pennant. Rght here is the place to say that with the present team and with the addition of Gehring the chances are good. Topeka has taken a slight slump and before that team re-covers Wichita will be tagging them too close for the comfort of the scrappy aggregation. thirteen games have been played and in twelve days.

Al lthirteen games were won. This is a record that is hard to beat among minor league teams. Out of the last twenty-five games Wichita has won twenty-two. If the team wins thirteen more straight games it wiil be so close to Topeka in the percentage column that a sheet of tissue paper couldn be clipped between. Wichita should win fifteen out of the tighten games, that is if the tam continues to play as it has.durinx the pa fifteen days.

If Topeka takes ten out of the eighteen games the two teams will be tied. On the other hand. other team, Jopiin most likely, might take a inning streak and show both Topeka and Wichita how to capture the rag. Topeka has charged the other teams with sluffing games to Wichita. Concerning this Manager Breese said that Topeka will have a chance to charge its own team with siufing games to Wichita after the Champions get htrough with the Cooleycrows.

Manager Holland is In the gest of spirits and is confident fhat the team will make a great fight for the silk stringer. He said that the hoodo had been slipped up on. "It true we have won thirteent gme straight, which sounds unlucky but we did it in twelve days and on the thirteenth we rested. That's the new bible for you. So you we are on the blind side of bi luck and It will have to move faster than the other teams of the league are doing when playing us.

to get turned around." It is up to the people cf Wichita to shc-y thir apreciation of the ball team that is now representing the city. It has -ft the management a big cash guarantee to get Webb City to transfer Its games here and this was Sr.e fnr the benefit cf the Wichita fans.

Maid to a reporter for the Eagle last nights 'Heine Gearing will probably join the team Sunday and play the ret of the season vJth oh. With him on the pitching Mtnff, vre will hp able to repent the performance of the pant two weeks." It has fallen to Wichita to furnish the first man to break into major league company from the Western Asosciation and make good. In a game at Detroit yesterday Edgar Willett, pitching for Detroit, held the Chicago White Sox down to five hits and no earned runs. Teh big fellow pitched a remarkable game and would have won had his team played the game as well as did Willett. He was pitted against White, who is considered to be the best wirier in the American League and coupled with the fact that Willett was opposed by a team that has been heading the league, he did nre than his most ardent admirers expected of him on the tryout.

Willett joined the Wichita team last year during the latter part of the baseball season and was instrumental in bringing the pennant to this city. He ritched fine ball, a shutou game at first appearance. His average for the season was .677, being tied for second place among the pitchers in the league who worked in more than ten games. His work this year was gd. although luck was against him in nearly every contest.

In nearly all his games this season he held the opposing batmen down to from one to five hits. As will be noticed his bad luck is still with him as Chicago won on account of what is known as baseball luck. Following is the report of the game as sent out by the Associated Press: Detroit. Sept S. Detroit tried a recruit named Wllletts from Wichita and he pitched a splesdid game, though beaten to Baseball luck helped in the makir.g of both Chicago tallies.

Detroit could do absolutely nothing with White and p2T i but two men on second base. Score: ft Detroit 0 00000000 Chicago 90000910-! 2 Batteries: Willetts and Schmidt; White and Towne.
