Aug. 25. The Salt Lake Skyscrapers won a hard-fought gamo this afternoon because they played superior baseball. With Manager Blankenship back at the receiving end of the battory. the boys played ball In something like their usual home form.

Leo Dressan worked nicely until the ninth inning, but. when he found himself In 1 a bad dJlcmma. with the bases full. Bill Morgan stepped In with everything at his command and saved the day. I While the bit column should show that Hil the teams had about an equal number Hil of lifts.

Salt Lake's hits came at op- I portuuc moments. Brick Dcvcrcaux and mmL 1 Heine Spencer were the boys who hit 1 in the run at a timely double each. Hl Urcssan found himself in a number of I bad holes, but with the assistance of HI it vein I plays by Orr and gen-jl crally ond team work behind him, ho I was always able to extricate himself tin- til the ninth, when Morgan came to the 1 Bl Four limes Helena opened an Inning VI -viHi one of lis men gettlnp-a clean hit. but Dressan always lightened up and 1 oui with colors flying. Cordtz First One In.

WW Sail Lake's first run came in the scc- oud and partially as a gift. Cordtr. bit mm lo KIIHlay. who fumbled long enough for I ihc center fielder to reach first in safely. Van sacrificed Cordfz lo second.

I I'ordtz kept on going 'is bo rounded sce- ond. and Connelly's throw to third was so bad that he had ample time to I Willi two down, Abbott was given a lift at first on a hit by pitched ball. I Blankenship advanced him lo tblnl with I a. clean single, and then Brick Dcvcrcaux lilt for two tacks to the right eentcr- flelj fenc, scoring both men ahead of him. Brick was cauglit trying to stretch it into a triple.

Dressan led off. with a double. In the ninth. Heine with threo and two on him hit one on a lino over HJ i-jlvrns's head for another two-sackor and Dressan. The next three men ucnl out I Helena scored the first run in I he HI fourth.

Stevens hit lhat.Wi for a single, JH and Thompson and Murray followed with JH a safe one for one base each, scoring JH Stevens.

Tf there, is anything the Helena fans and players did not try in efforts I to rattle Morgan It would bo too Insig- nlflcant to mention. They tried evcry- thing, own to climbing tho fence on to the playing field, so that I'mplre Iawler had to call time and send them I back. Morgan held Is ground, though.

His fasL spltter has been working but about half tho lime on the trip, but It was working today, so that Blanken- ship was compelled to duck after them in nil directions. Kibble, the first man to face Morgan. popped up an easy one to Blankenship. Jj Connelly lined une down toward third that came near taking Brick's leg with It, but Orr started the fans on' their homeward Journey when he speared the Jl ball one-handed and threw Irhv out at second. KIIHlay had crossed tho but Irby was the tccond out nnd men were now occupying first and third only, Blankenship yelled to the bovs to "play It safe."

HJH Comments on Contest Telegraphed to The 1 Tribune by Staff Correspondent. eighth, batted a ball which hit the right field fence. T.ils Is an un-usual drive hero, but It went foul by MARQUIS OF QUEENSBERRY WILL REPORT FIGHTS FOR THE TRIBUNE The, sporting department of The Salt Lake Tribune bus obtained exclusive rights lo the reports of big lights written by tho marquis of Quecnsbcrry. Ferliaps no other announcement at. this time could be of morn Importance to sports readers, because tho marquis of Queensberry's coming to America marks an epoch In the pugilistic game.

At tho behest of Eugene Corrl, the "gentleman reffrec of London, tho marquis of Qiiecnsberry, writing for the leading newspapers of America, will try to rescue pugilism from tho sloughs of brutality and place It on a plane 'which will enable tho sport to command the patronage ot the bettor classes. The present marquis of Quconsbcrry Is tho son of the famous marquis who compiled the rules that bear his name, but modern light officials have deviated so far from the spirit and letter of the Oueensberry rules thai some revision Is necessary. The marquis, Eugene Corrl and two American sportsmen will probably be appointed as an International commission to formulate new rules for pugilism. It Will be seen, therefore, that moro Importance attaches to tho articles written by the marquis of Quecnsbcrry than few feet. Irby promptly Issued orders that Van be walked, as there were two men on bases.

That Heine Spencer wsitches every mo-men 1 of the game with an eagle eye was proved again today. Dressan was on second and Spencer at bat. Kibble held the hall momentarily and Bryan stepped into thf box. Quick- as a flash Spencer yelled "balk," whereupon Lawlcr sent; Dressan to third and. Spencer then cracked the next one, scoring Dressan.

Tho Helena fans gave Spencer quite a hand. Orr's arm is again right for the first time since the team left Missoula. Tho cold at Great Falls played havoc with It for a time. With Wood on third and Stovcns on first the two tried the double steal, but Blankenship shot the ball clear through to Orr catching Stevens and Orr fired the ball back to Devereaux so quickly that they nhnost nailed Wood also. Lawlcr was slightly off again today, but the boys are making all sorts of allowances because they believe that the umpire Is trying lo do what Is right at least.

Both Hummel and Morgan say they are goini: to win their next games against Helena if tho boys help them along at all. Dressan Is also good for another and Schlmpff wants to pitch tho last same Sunday. Morgan will pitch tomorrow If he looks as good as ho did when ho relieved Dressan today. The Boise and Salt Iako teams will travel In a special Pullman from Butte lo Boise. Mears will likely pitch for Helena tomorrow.

MISSOULA BEAT.S BOISE, Moxie Manuel's Pitching- Completely Baffles the Irrigators. MISSOULA, Aug. 25. The pitching of Manuel proved too much for tho BoIf team today, the decision going to Missoula, 5 to 2. The locals pulled out of several tight holes and kopt the visitors from scoring after the first inning.

Catcher Flnneil Jumped the team last nlcht and the result was a shake-up in McCafferty's lineup. Whitman, a lo-ral amateur, was used in center Held. Flnneil Is supposed to be on his way west with Walsh and Chevalier, two players recently released. Oriet is disabled. The score: BOISE.

Besides bearing a name which has unrivaled prestige in pugilism, the marquis Is highly educated and an accomplished writer. After losing most of a fortune of Inherited from his father, the marquis settled the remaining pittance on his wife and camo to America to seek his fortune. Because Eugenu Corrl had suggested to him the need of an International boxing commission, the marquis consulted with prominent American sportsmen, who realize that the fight game Is doomed unless somo reformation takes pluce. They received his suggestions with approval and advised him to offer his services to a few of tho biggest newspapers of America, including The Salt Lake Tribune.

ALTA CLUB VS. U. CLUB AT C00LEY PARK TODAY The big ball game will bo pulled off at 2:30 o'clock today at Cooley park" instead of Walkers field as originally announced.

Bettors at tho Alta club and at the University club were busy making wagors which they hoped to lose. Alta club members wore wagering 8 to 1 UirI the University club wins, and at the University club they wero wagering 10 to 1 that the Alta" club wins. The theory is that If they lose Ihcy will be only loo glad to "pay, because winning the game will be compensation enough, while If they lose they will need the money to bribe the victors from crowing too much. It will be a great game. All former announcements "concerning tho lineups arc wrong.

Neither team will reveal the Identity of the mysterious stars they have signed. The Identity of the catchers Will probably never be known until they take off their masks at midnight Some of the most accomplished umpirc-baltera In the city will bo present. Last night it was rumored that John Crltchlow had been lured away from tho University club team and would be scon in Alta. club uniform. He had abouL tho same relative yaluo lo the University club that Mathcwson bus to the" Giants.

University club members admit he may be seen In an Alta club uniform, but they strongly aver that ho will not play in it very long. This may bo a threat. TI. K. Masters, who had been considered hardly proficlont enough for the University club team, suddenly developed a wonderful upshoot yesterday.

Last night he was surrounded by an escort to prevent the Alta club from leasing the use of the marvelous shoot. About the same lime yesterday Walker Salisbury developed a new curve known as the Figure S. The aviation fadeaway, George Ames's principal curve, is calculated to all batsmen go up lii tho air. Game will be called at 2:30. A'arlous bluffs made by both sides will bo called Immediately afterward.

Obsequies- of the umpires will be the last events on the procrammo. Culture and fashion will make obeisance to athletics today. Last night many fair hands were busy stitching the colors of the Alia club or the University club to sailor hals or tennis gowns. More boxes of candy and pairs of gloves have been wagered on this game than on all Ihc other games that" have been given at Cooley park. But the most picturesque feature of the game will be the uniforms of the players.

They are fearfully and wonderfully made and they fit. All the colors of tho rainbow will bo blended artistically, and every time one of the sterling athletes makes a good play he will be rewarded with a medal. After the fourth inning fielders will be permitted lo use automobiles. Before that they will chase the ball with polo ponies. Any person commending the decision of any of the numerous umpires will be ejected.

Returns from thfi Alta. Club-University Club game will read In parks of tho Giants. Cube and In all Union league grounds. Any pari of the game that, is not finished before midnight Saturday, will be played off Sunday. Persons who know hig league players by sight arc requested to exercise discretion In revealing the identity of Mathewson, Mordecai Brown or other big leaguers imported by either side.

No auto? will be allowed at the entrances provided for the ambulances. Players arc requested to be careful not to mistake the white-coated ambulance surgeons for first Uascmcn. Any person hit by a ball may keep the balk All scorers who can keep track of tho score for one Inning will be suitably rewarded. These are only a few of the regulations which will make this game the greatest ever playod on any grounds All tho players have been captains or pitchers in their college teams All tho pitchers have entirely new styles of winding up and are guaranteed to hit more batsmen than any other pitchers known. Whenever three balls have been pitched and a baiter has been able to dodRO thm he will be given three This will be a ground rule In cfTcct at the discretion of the umpires.

In order to record all the runs the back fence will bo used as a blackboard. Tt starts at 2:30. All who are not there, players excepted, will be sorry. American League Won. Lost.

Raimey was unhurt. Half an hour later Fred Robblllards, Stavo-Chlcago, threw a tiro and tho car smashed Into a telegraph pole, which was cut in two, Elghteeii cars started in the three events. Every one of these events was a severe lest of a car, and nil but five finished. Of these three were running grandly when the winners having crossed the line, they were called off the course. Tho races were remarkable for the absence of lire trouble.

Not a pneumatic was changed at the repair pits and the number shifted at other parts of the course was negligible. The motors were exceedingly well behaved and the ordinarily busy mechanics in the pits spent an idle day. A prediction failed of fulfillment and the weather was Ideal. The crowds wero perfectly handled by the militiamen a.nd no unbidden vehicles strayed off the country roads on the speed route as was the case a year ago. Thrills at the Finishes.

The finishes were replete with thrills. Two Nationals fought it out for first and second positions to the tasr. Inch in the Illinois Cup event at 203 miles and finished nine seconds apart Two Velio cars were the only other entrants in this event. The Mercer cars in a. field of eleven finished two minutes apart for win and place in the Kane County Cut' race.

These contests kept the spectators on their feet. There wore many brushes for position among other cars which maintained a. sleady level of excitement (hroughout the races. Two Abbott-Dc-troll. cars and one Ford had tho Aurora Cup fight to themselves and ran a close race from start to finish.

Not one of the three winning machines stopped for any reason whatever throughout the day. Mrs. J. Adams of Phoenix, with a parly of women, arrived in her car from Arizona to secure parking space. Tho fastest lap, 8 miles 2494 feet, made In 7:52 last year by Al Livingston In a.

Hcjoice and be glad! Dick Cooley is home and the Skyscrapers can now win, Tho Helena hoodoo has disappeared. The Cooley park mascot "Qucenle," which has been mourning for her mistress and master, la In good spirits again, now that Mr. and Mrs. Cooley have returned. Most of the Skyscrapers' defeats could have been victories If luck had broken a little better, but the mascot wils In mournlnjj.

because sho had been left behind. "Qucenle." the mascot. Is a bulldog, and when a bullodg 1b loncsomo It Is no good as a mascot. Admirers of the Skyscrapers can rely on the mascot today and need not bo at all anxious. Helena Is doomed to defeat.

"Am I glad to be back?" repeated Dick Cooley. "Well, you never saw anybody any gladder. In Kansas City I took the coolest room I could find, but for forty-eight hours I sweltered In heat thai was terrific. My Idea of joy Is to be coming out of heat like that-Into the cool breezes of Salt Lake and environs. This weather Is something to be glad about even if the Skyscrapers have had a run of hard luck." During his trip east Cooley arranged to protect a number of his best players from being drafted and also laid wires to get some players for next year.

He believes the Union league will be better than ever next year nnd he Intends to kIvc Salt Lake Just as good a team If not better than any other In the league. Willie Cooley would not make any definite statements concerning the Great Falls team. It Is pretty well known that he will Insist on all club managers remaining within the salary limit next year. Until tho league meeting no one can say whether Great Falls's standing will be thrown out or not, but It oucht lo be. because ManagQr Reed, according to all reports, has exceeded the salarv limit insufferably.

Baseball men like Cooley. McCloskcy and Lucas will scarcely submit tamely to such Imposition. Reed's ambition to win tho pennant rests on his desire to get a good berth In somo other league next year. He himself has no money In tho Great Falls team. His salary comes regularly, no matter how much the club directors lose.

If he can win the pennant the prcstlirn will probably enable him to land a good berth In some other leagu. Other club managers have their own money Invested and have remained within the salary limit or at least have not exceeded It so flagrantly as Reed Is said to havo done. Cooley says that he Is more than satisfied with his season thus far and believes that the recent losing streak was causod by the cold weather in Montana He Is of the opinion the Skyscrapers will soon be In winning form, but he is going to strengthen -the team as much as possible, just, as soon as he can gel hold of the players.
