Not a chance There is player except that he is troubled a lit- no question of his value There was tie bit with deafness At times he was some of Hobby's" And he has the deafer than others when with the

playing a grand game ever pitching He is one of those stand-up since he got his chance and it is not hitters that takes a wallop at the ball fleets "Hobby" may have a little the i bination I also

result of Thursday's play in the second round of the Star-Telegram Spizzerinktum All City golf tournament only one match in the second flight remains to be played to complete the round Three matches were played Thursday two in the first flight and one in the second flight In the first flight Hollender eliminated Purdy 1 up and Reynolds beat Wasson 4 up 3 The second flight match saw the elimination of Dr Williams by Stripling 5 up 4 The victory of Ho was a big surprise as Purdy has been talked of as the "dark horse" of the tournament Purdy was decidedly off his game in the match and went down in defeat at the last hole by failing to sink a short putt Reynolds' driving was the feature of his victory over Wasson Wasscen played a strong approach and putting game but was unable to get the force behind his drives that the River Crest man did Stripling further showed his class by outplaying Dr Williams in the only second flight match Stripling took the lead going out and was never headed The Van Zandt-Thompson match in the second flight will be played today or tomorrow completing the second round The third round will begin at River Crest Sur epecial to The TriFfPrani AUSTIN Oct the first time since Nov 17 of last year the Longhorn team was scored upon yesterday afternoon The scrubs turned the trick in a practice game which offered the best football which has been seen on Clark Field this season Hedick the crack second team fullback made a beautiful pass of thirty yards to Dolan who went over the first goal that has been registered against the Longhorns in Pearly one year During last season the Texas team was scored on three times First by Oklahoma at Dallas when a touchdown from kick-off was made again by the Haskell Indian team and last by Mississippi The first team scored three times on the scrubs but it was perceptibly more difficult than it was the day before Both teams worked decidedly better but the difference came in the fact that the plays used by the first team were not entire surprises in yesterday's game as they were the day before Light scrimmage only is expected today as the men will be saved for the game with Daniel Baker on Saturday This is the second time Texas has played Daniel Baker winning the last time 1906 by the score of 40 to The BaptLts are said to have a much better team this year and Saturday's contest should be better than the one with 14 to tell from the knowledge I can gather would give it to Boston since I think through talking to American League from whait I can gather that Carrigan's players and

outfield against the Bosson ton outfield but closer analysis leaves some room for comparison The Red Sox have a combination that is rated to be the greatest trio in the country "Tris" Speaker is a whole outfield In himself and should save his pticher one or two hits a game by his prenomenal ability to play close behind second base and go back under long hit balls There is no man who can cover the ground he does He is the next thing to a circus tent He makes putouts right along on hits that would net two or three bases with any other man in the country playing the position Speaker is also the best day in and day out hitter of any of the outfielders on either club He is fast on the bases and liable to worhe ry Moran's pitchers and catchers once he gets aboard the bags Speaker gives Cat
