7. -Last week's football games, the first for many of the teams, were productive of many upsets, as well as some agreeable surprises. The principal upset, 38 far as New Yorkers are concerned, was the showing of the Columbia eleven. Their work against Union was poor. It was the first game of the season, and certain amount of raggedness was to be expected, but the utter lack of football familiarity by some of the men in the blue and white line up was deplorable.

Princeton and Philadelphia both demonstrated that they are already in Thanksgiving day condition, a circumstance that does not warrant too much confidence in their ultimate success. It's the hardest job in the world to keep a bunch of football players keyed up once you get them in tip top shape. Pennsylvania's play against Lehigh wits and encouraging. The Red and Blue smooth twenty-four points in the first half, and ran up added two more touchdowns with a substitute the second period. Lehigh was helpless.

team in Princeton kept her record clean played a and against Washington and Jefferconsistent game soft. O'Brien did some good playing at right showed up well at the other end and Brasher wing. E. Dillon and Tenney, quarter backs, were good in running back punts. Harvard's score against Williams Saturday small, but the work of the Crimson was was fairly satisfying to the coaches.

The played Ball, line low and its charging was good. Hanley, O'Brien and Pierce all did effective Wendell, work. Cornell was scored on and escaped a tie score only one point at the hands of Colgate, owing to the fact that a substitute eleven by was in the field in the second half. West Point put opened her season well against Tufts. This week has been one of hard work rearand weeding out for all the teams, and ranging the games played during the week showed improvement all along the line.

The great son of Joe Patchen-Zellika appeared for his trial at 4 o'clock. The track was lightning fast and there was no wind and the weather conditions were ideal. Scott Hudson was behind the pacemaker.

A strip of cloth between the wheels of the forward sulky to prevent dirt being thrown behind was the only suggestion of 3 wind shield. Hersey was behind Dan Patch. The books offered 4 to 5 either way on the result of the effort. There were cheers when was hung out for the first quarter.

Hope was stimulated when was posted for the half. Excitement became intense when the three-quarters was passed in and the spectators began shouting encouragement to the drivers, Into the stretch the great pacer still keeping his even seemingly effortless stride, the runner at his sulky wheel began to crawl up, Hudson gave a little more rein, but Hersey sat like statue, not urging his charge with whip or word. Dat Patch made no last supreme effort. He just finished the mile as he had begun it. He had scarcely broken into a sweat when led back to receive the plaudits of the crowd.

Not If William knows it. Marvelous Marvin, in "mellerdrammer," is the latest addition to the Thespian list. Of course, it is Marvin Hart, the scrapper. He is to ap: pear in "The Plump Plummer," a tale of the ditch and connecting pipes. Jockey Hildebrand was ruled off the turf for rough riding, but that isn't what some of the New York papers called it.

Billy Madden says ho expects to see the day when Gus Rublin is a champion. Gus must be learning golf or tennis. Frank Gotch has thrown his reverse clutch and he is now backing as fast as he can to the rear of the pugilistic ruad. He can wrestle, but as a boxer be isn't in Jack Munroe's class. Frisco sports must be jubilant over the fact that Gotch was not inflicted on them in his first and probably last appearance as a glove thruster.

It is said that "Buddy" Ryan has lost his right eye as a result of the fight with his manager, Johnny Reid. The moral is a paradox. Prize fighters should always refrain from fightthey're inside the ropes. That the Eastern Jockey club has been particularly active the past summer is evident from the fact that they have placed five popular riders under the ban. Early in the summer Jockey Baird, who rode his first winner at tonia last fall, and later developed into one of the best riders in the country, fell into bad grace for being beaten on several heavily played vorites.

The climax came when he was left at the post with a well played first choice. Kelly was next to receive notice that his services were no longer required. Hildebrand was ruled off the turf but a few days ago, and Digging "got his" Thursday, Hildebrand has been under surveillance of the stewards for some time, and because he was under contract to a bookmaker. owner and plunger, Joe Yeager by name, he was not popular with the officials. Hildebrand was warned during the early summer meeting at Sheepshead and was set down temporarily, but the warning was not heeded.

offense was for being beaten on Toots, Monk and Hippocrates. Now comes Shaw, who is accused of applying the "brakes" on favorites. Everybody Works but Reuben.

Montgomery Park Officials Will Make No Further Attempt to Race, MEMPHIS, Oct. -There will be no fall running meeting held by the officials of the New Memphis Jockey club.

Neither will an independent running meeting be held at Billings park, the so-called track, as has been reported in various turf circles. Official announcement is made that the dates granted by the Western Jockey club for a meeting at Montgomery park during the latter part of November will not be utilized and all other rumors of an independent meeting at the trotting track are ignored here inasmuch as the jockey club joys a five-year lease on the Billings plant for all races other than pacing and trotting events. As the officials of the Memphis Trotting association have recently abandoned their advertised Grand Circuit meeting owing to the quarantine tions, which vould have militated greatly against the out or town visitors, it is likely that local racing patrons of both the running and harness branch of the horse game will have to await another season before opportunity is given to watch the sport. John W. Schorr, stockholder in the New Memphis Jockey cluh, member of the executive committee and at one time one of the prominent owners of the Western turf, has just returned from an all summer's campaign on Eastern tracks, The season was noteworthy for Schorr, AS being the first in many years that witnessed total absence of his colors from the many prominent classics.

Instead of making an effort to send another Endurance By Right, Lady Schorr, a Silverdale or a Lieber Karl to the races this year, Mr. Schorr was contented with playing from the grandstand and clubhouse, with occasional visits to the paddock--a system which he admits was not ag beneficial to him financially 18 was the former method of campaigning a stable. Speaking of his season in the East Mr. Schorr said that he was loser. Of racing in the in the future he had nothing to say except that the new law that goes into effect on December 1, was in his opinion, not a drastic one, and that it was his belief that an effort was to be made by friends of the breeding interests of the state and by friends of racing in general to test the constitutionality of the statute on grounds which had been thoroughly gone over by law.

yers who had been employed for that purpose. It is thought that the test will be made on the Cumberland Park track at Nashville. The meeting there under American Turf association jurisdiction is scheduled to run close to December 1. A continuation of 2 few days would be an easy matter for the managers to arrange and racing on the day the law becomes effective would enable the breeders and others to play the first card in a legal game which may end in the highest tribune in the state.

Home, 5876 Main THE BIG "HIT" OF THE MEGAPHONE SHOW WAS' "I Don't Know Where I'm Going But I'm On My Way" -Joe Bren's Latest Composition: Hear It Played At all Music Dealers AMATEUR BOUTS IN BIG HALL THE MISSOURI ATHLETIC CLUB TO HOLD TOURNAMENTS. Show Will Open November 0 and Last Three Nights--Fifty Boxing Bouts Will Probably Be Staged--J.

H. Herman Is Here to Manage the Affair. The Missouri Athletic club, which 1 has been organization for nearly year, will break into the limelight November 6, 7 and 8 in Convention hall with a national tournament for amateur boxers and wrestlers. J. H.

Herthe New York promoter and manager of man, championship tournaments, arrived here amateur Thursday to take charge of the show. Herman has had a great deal of experience in promoting amateur tournaments and he says he is confident that he will be able to secure at least one hundred entries for the boxing bouts alone. He also expects to land quite a number of wrestling bouts. All amateurs in the United States and Canada are eligible to compete for the trophies which will be awarded to the winners of the first and second prizes in every class. The weights for both boxing and wrestling have been divided into Seven classes.

They are 38 follows: 105 pounds, 115 pounds, 125 pounds, 185 pounds, 145 pounds, 158 pounds and the heavy weights. Amateur Athletic rules will govern both boxing and wrestling bouts. The boxing bouts will be limited to three rounds each, with the referee being vested with the authority to send the men on one additional round if be and the two judges are unable to select the winner at the end of three rounds. The wrestling bouts will be limited to fifteen minutes each. Manager Herman expects to stage about ty bouts on the opening and second night.

Tha finals will be decided on the third night, seven of the events which will be boxing and four wrestling. The decisions will be rendered by two judges and referee Dave Porteus. The last national tournament was held at St. Louis last year and over 100 amateur boxers competed for the prizes. Manager Herman will leave next week for St.

Louis, Chicago, Cincinnati and the Eastern cities to secure entries for the tournament. "Although I have only been been here few days 1 can see nothing but success for the show." said Herman last night. "There are a number of good men here and I expect to secure fully forty entries in the boxing class in this vicinity. However, it will be, strictly an amateur tournament and none but amateurs need apply. Two years ago I managed a national tournament at Buffalo and staged sixty-one bouts during the three nights.

I had a lot of trouble, too, I can tell you. Hardly a day would pass without some professional would make an entry, but none of them succeeded in getting in the ring. I have ordered all of the medals and trophies and they will not be of the 'Portland' variety. "The bouts, which will be limited to three rounds each, should bring forth much good boxing. Amateurs are always in good shape and they will all be in condition to travel three rounds at hurricane speed.

I expect to secure entries from New York and all of the Eastern cities and would not be surprised to see quite a number come from California. However, I expect to land the bulk of the boxers from this neighborhood. Every small town has its own champion and this will give them a chance to show what they can Any amateur boxer or wrestler desiring to enter this tournament can secure entry blanks, which will give him all the necessary informa.
