HIGH SCHOOLS ABE VICIOBIOTJS. 5 AN UAL' football team playei I lt3 first 'imptrtaIlt eame of the season yesterday and defeated the eleven from University School by the score of 19 to 0. The result wa3 a big- surprise to the members of both teams and their foHowers, because It was expected that the University School would produce an eleven hard to beat.

The game was played at the Manual Park, Brook and Woodbine streets, and a largo crowd saw the contest. The Manual players showed surprising form for thi3 early in the season, and "while the university boys displayed much sameness, they seemed to bo outclassed. They were accorded much praise, however, for the plucky manner in which they held their ground agrainst the stronger eleven. Several players stood out prominently on account of their spectacular work during, the afternoon. Kinkead scored two drop kicks from the field, which created lniensc enthusiasm among the spectators.

The work of H. McCann and O. McCanri was also sensational, while Hughes, of Manual, played a star all around game. From the first kick-off. University School's men were unable to return the ball the required ten yards, and were forced to punt.

This was returned by Manual io the twenty-yard line, when in live downs, the ball -was placed behind the Thorpe's goal posts, and Manual had scored a touchdown. The hall was carried over by Manual's fullback, McCann, after live minutes of play. H. McCann failed to kick goal. The second touchdown was scored within thy.

next live minutes. Manual kicked off to University School, but soon regain-eu the hall. By successive line plunges, and runs and tackle nlavs. Manual srnn put the ball over the line. Capt McCann liiu uiiii.

opran KicKeu goal. After this, University School's defense took a brace, but could not stop the ter-rliic plunges of O. McCann and Ben Davis irom the back field. These men, together with H. McCann, repeatedly made large gains, seldom requiring more than three downs to gain the required distance.

Manual managed to keep the ball In University School's territory nearly ail the time, but were unable to, make another touchdown on account ot some bad fumbling, and University School's plucky stand at critical stages. Rogers and Arthur were the nhipf ground gainers for Thorpe, Arthur using the quarterback run several times for uuiibiueiiiuie guiiits. The Crimson team cave Pom fin hlbitiona open play, ICinkeud making iiiiuseii. u. jiui uy trcurinij eignt points of the nineteen by two successful drop kicks from field.

The first was made from the twenty-five-yard line in the first half, the second from the thlrty-iive-ard line toward the close of the secoiSd half. Hughes played a star game at quarter, directing his men with tact and skill. He attempted the quarterback run several times, and succeeded In gaining: ground, but was each time unfortunate in losing: the ball when tackled. At one exciting time there were at least three fumbles by each team in succession, the University School netting the biggest gain from lt all. K.

Surman and Kinkead, Manual's ends, did great work in getting down the field after a forced kick, at no time permitting the University School men to return the ball but a short distance. In harmony with the new rules, Surman even beat the opponents to the ball, and so kept the ball for Manual on the fifteen-yard line, when it had just been kicked by J. Surman from the fifty-yard line diagonally across the field. The line-up and summary follow: Manual. Positions.

High School 16, Georgetown College 0 Yesterday afternoon one of the biggest football surprises of the year occurred when High School defeated the strong Georgetown College eleven to the tune of 16 to 0. Even the most ardent of the High School sympathizers were in doubt as to the result of the game when the High School team left yesterday morning for Georgetown.

However, High School's goal was never in danger, and the ball was nearly always In Georgetown's territory. Duffy won the toss and chose the east goal. High School kicked off to Georgetown and held the collegians for downs. Wiling punted and High School after a few downs tiled a place kick which narrowly missed the goal. Whins kicked out and the ball was forced back down the field for a touchdown.

Fox carrying the ball. High School's punting was good and the ends, Duffy and Robinson always got down the field in time to drop the man in his tracks. The game was remarkable for the lack of penalizing. High School seems to have learned its lesson last Saturday and was only penalized twice. Duffy and Lelb made-the only two fumbles of the game, which, however, did not cause any trouble for High School.

Every man played his position much better than at any previous time this season. Duffy was the bright particular star of the game, being, as usual, in everv play and having one fifty-five-yard run for a touchdown to his credit. Coach Smith thinks he has at last found a reliable quarter in Frank, who, having only played the position a week, handled his team very ably. High School's advantage over Georgetown lay in Us speed and several of the new plays under this season's rules were tried succesfully. Norman played In fine form at left tackle and Dale, who was at center last year, made a very creditable showing at right tackle.

Whayne and Leib, two of last year's subs, played falrlv well in the back field for new men, and Fox was on hand with his usual line of brilliant playing. Two more of last year's subs, Finnegan and Walker, held down the guards, while MacDonald gave his 200-pound opponent a tough proposition at center. In the second half Fox and Duffy each secured a touchdown, and Fox kicked one of the goals. The team was accompanied by Dr. Meyers, trainer; Coach Smith, Prof.

R. E. Hill, manager, and Clarence Vogt. Both teams showed, up In good condition and time was taken out only once, no substitutes were used and no one was hurt. Coach Smith was much pleased with his team's showing in all but the handling of punts and in goal kicking, and the corning week will be devoted to some hard work on these points.

The High School's next game Is with the Shortridge High School, of Indianapolis. The game will be played at High School Park next Satnrdav. The High School team lined up as follows: Right end, Capt. Duffy; right tackle. Dale: right guard, Walker; center, MacDonald: left guard, Finnegan; left tackle.

Norman; left end, Robinson; quarter, Frank: right half, Leib; fullback, Whayne; left half, -Fox; substitutes. WALSH WEAKENS Twenty-five Thousand People Witness the Exciting Struggle. LUCK SHIFTS THROUGHOUT. IT WHITE SOX TAKE TO-DAY'S GAME THEY WILL BE THE WORLD'S CHAMPIONS. ISBELL'S GREAT BATTING.

HICAGO, Oct. 13. Out of a bedlam pitchers and the vociferations of half-frenzied spectators the Chi cago American League team emerged victorious over the Nationals to-day, to 6. The Americans won in spite of five ghastly errors, which were accountable for nearly all the runs made by the Nationals. The Nationals lost because they could not hit Walsh's "spit ball' delivery.

The Americans fielded like amateurs, and the Nationals, fielding perfectly, batted very much in the negative. Time after time when a hit meant runs the batters with the Impressive averages fail, ed to live up to their reputations. The day was warm the first real baseball weather of the series. Twenty-five thousand peuple wormed their way into the National League grounds, and at I'M "o'clock, fifty minutes before the timo set for play to begin, the selling of tickets ceased. The noise makers were out in full force and the sky was full of kites, as usual recommending that votes be cast in various directions at the coming local election.

With all these regulation baseball conditions existing the Americans began business with vigor. Halm, the nest man up, touched Reulbacirs delivery for a single over second. Jones sacrificed and Halm scored on Isbell's double to right. Davis hit weakly, but was safe, while Isbell was tagged out between second and third. Ilohe promptly followed with a double to left.

Reulbach was apparently nervous, and allowed Donohue to walk, filling the bases. Dougherty, however, went out by the narrowest possible margin, and two runs were kept from counting. Thus two doubles, a single and a base on ball counied for but one run. Nationals Pile Up Kuns. The Nationals in their half piled up three runs, without much credit to themselves however.

Hot man singled and went to second on Sheckard's sacrifice. Schulte hi; safely, but Hofman was held at second. Chance was hit by the ball and the bases thus were filled. Steinfeldt forced Chance, at second and HoXnian scored, but Isbell, attempting to make a double, threw the ball into the crowd back of first base and Schulte also scored, Steinfeldt reaching third. Tinker knocked an easy one to Walsh, who threw low to Donohue, and Steinfeldt scored.

Tinker went out stealing. The Americans even up matters In the third. Isbell again hit for two bases, this time to left field, and Davis followed with another, scoring Isbell. At this point Ca.pt. Chance removed Reulbach ana substituted Pfiester in thepitcher's box.

He began by striking out Rohe. Donohue walked on a dead ball. Dougherty forced Donoiiue, and Davis reached third, and scored on a neat double steal. It was a clever piece of work which the partisans of both teams joined in cheering. Sullivan ended the trouble by striking out.

It was anybody's game. From tiia way botii sides were playing nobody would venture to predict which side would come out on top. In the fourth inning the Americans clinched the game with four runs, and incidentally sent Pfiester to join Reulbach on the bench. Pfiester allowed Walsh to walk, Hahn forced Walsh at second. Jones hit safely over third.

Isbell sent a l.ng double to right center, and Hahn scored. Isbell and Jones scored a moment later when Davis hit the ball to left for two bases. At this point Pfiester went out and Overall took his place. He Inaugurated his return by allowing Kobe to walk, following which Donohue doubled to left and Davis scored. The American League partisans at this stage of the game were fairly wild with delight.

The so-called "Hltless Wonders" had driven two pitchers to the and seemed acout to treat the ti.irrt one likewise. The scoring, however, for this inning was ended for Corniskey's team. Schulte captured Dougherty's fly off his shoe string and caught Rohe at tbe plate when the latter tried to score. In their half the Nationals tallied one run on the misplays of their opponents. Tinker was safe when Rohe threw into the crowd, and reached second on the error.

Evera walked and Kling struck out. third and scored on a wild pitch. May Win Championship To-day. la the sixth Isbell scored on his own double and Rohe's single. In their half the Nationals made two runs.

After Evers and RUne had faded away Overall and Hofman passed, and when Sheckard reached first on Rohe's fumble the bases wer full. Schulte doubled to left center arid Overall and Hofman scored. Had it not been for the ground rules Schulte's hit would have been a home run, and the score, would' have been even. With men on second and third Chance hit an eaey one to Isbell" and was out at first. Thereafter neither side wis able to score, although the Nationals looked dangerous In the seventh.

Steinfeldt doubled to left along the foul line. It was apparent that Walsh, who had also pitched on Thursday, was and Capt. Jones very promptly took biro. out. White The normal young man from the age of 14 to 20 demands a garment that strikes a high note for individuality.

REAL WORTH OF NEW FOOTBALL RULES. ITII the first serious attempts of the football years to develop a new game to meet the requirements of new rules widely different opinions have been expressed. Among- players and coaches more unfavorable criticism than praise Is heard. The public itself has had small chance to judge. Xone can say what the ultimate effect will be, because nothing less than a season's test and experiment can.

bring out the good or bad points of the rules, while a number 'of years may be required to develop a new game. The college football game of the last few years -was developed in a week. So far the greater part of the criticisms heard redounds to the credit of the reformers. The loudest complaints seem to be based on the fact that the rules will produce the changes in the game fur which they were framed. It is asserted that no ground can be gained in the old way, but an open game must be adopted, which is far more tiring on vne players and will cause more Injuries.

Football will become nothing but basketball, it is said. Exaggerations. These are exaggerated forecasts, of course. It has yet to be proved the open game will be productive of more injuries. It probably is the more tiring on players still green and out of training than the old game was at the start of the season.

That is no reason why a team cannot be trained to endure the greater amount of running entailed. Basketball by skilled players has some features the adoption of which would not hurt football in the least. If the new football demands a great deal more running, punting and passing than the old the public will not object. The chief objectors will be the coaches, who have to evolve new plays to meet new conditions, discarding the old, and the heavyweight players, who will find their usefulness to their teams greatly lessened by their inability to hold up their end in an open game with the lighter man, to whom sprinting is not so arduous. New Code's Possibilities.

If the new game compels coaches to discard weight in favor of speed, it wlil broaden the Held from which material can be picked, removing one of the greatest of former evils held out to star players by different institu tions. If the forward pass is hazardous and too likely to miscarry to suit the coaches, It will enhance the element of uncertainty to the game. By givir.g brains, alertness and speed a chance to compete on even terms with mere beef ana strength no injury is Gone to foot-ball as a sport. Lat-t year an eleven which was outweighed ten pounds to a man by its opponents could win nothing uui L-puiuuuu ior gmneness. It was one of the objects of the reformers to obviate this, and If the new rules make It possible for a lighter team to run rings around the old-style bruising machine, take off your hats to the Kules Committee.

It would be marvelous If the new rules proved perfect in detail. Many real faults probably will crop out, calling for much more revision. Some of the changes made may not do at all. but In general they seem to have accomplished their main objects, and it will be recalled, perhaps, that the code of rules under which the former game developed was not beyond improvement; Horses Sold At New York.

13. Princeton to-day managed-to score one touch down against the much lighter but plucky football eleven of the Naval Academy and to keep their own goal line from being crossed. From the very start Princeton played hard, line bucking football, and the manner in which they hammered the line promised fear for the Navy defeat. This continued through the half with neither side able to score. From right under the goal pests, where Dillon received the kick off in the second half, Princeton began again to hammer the midshipmen's line, playing straight football.

Twice they literally bucked their way UJ tne fieId to witfiin reaching distance of the navy Boal. but the mid shipmen saved themselves once bv hreak- up a trick formation and onco by holding the Princeton line. After eight minutes of play Spencer received Dillon's punt on Navy's five- yard line. Spencer kicked the ball out of danger to Dillon, who heeled tor a free kick on the Navy's forty-flve-yard line. Norton fumbled Cooney'a kick and downed the ball for a touchback.

On tho punt from the twenty-five-yard line Spencer's kick was received by McCormick in midiield. Fromhere Princeton began to buck her way toward a score. McCormick started off' wtth twelve yards, and Stoever and E. S. Dillon alternated with him in 6afe line gains, which placed the ball on the Navy's three-yard line, where two rushes by McCormick put it over for a touchdown.

Dillon failed to kick a diflicult goal. Time was called shortly after. Stafie College 48, Eminence 0. Lexint.on, Oct. 13.

EtTBT lAGEY'S EASY WIST. LEXINGTON. Oct. thirty-fourth annual meeting of the Kentucky Trotting Horse Breed-era Association was brought to a close this afternoon with the. Stoll Stake, the feature of the programme.

Talpa, a representative of the Oakland Farm, of Wellsvllle, Y-, iron the race, and besides winning the lion's share of the $2,000 puree was covered with a saddle of roses and carnations. This floral saddle was presented the winner by R. C. Stoll and John I. Stoll, sons of the late B- H.

Stoll. for whom the stake was named, and who was serving aa president of the association when he died, three years ago. Talpa had no trouble in winning the race, after losing the first heat to Dr. Chase. In the three other heats she took the lead at the start and was never headed.

The 2:20 class for pacers went to Ruby J-acy In a featureless race, as the mare outclassed the field and won easily. On account of the scratches in the 2:25 class trot, the race was declared off. Although the association has had to contend with the most disagreeable weather In years, the meeting did not ffnd with a financial loss to the association. It is a peculiar fact that accidents marred the first and last races of the meeting this year. In the Stoll Stake, the last race on the programme, David driving Sister Coiiette, collided with Charles Jamison, driving Kapolna.

The collision occurred at the three-quar ters and was caused by a break made by Bister Coliette. Both drivers were thrown out, but neither seriously injured. The summaries are as follows: The Stoll Stake: 2:19 class trotting; value 3 in 5: Talpa. ch. by Macaroon.
