Spalla is now in training at Streha. “I am _ready to go to America im- mediately to meet Dempsey at any time and at any place set by the champion,” said Spalla to the Asso- clated Press. “I am in fine condition and will be able to give the cham- pion the biggest run for his money he has ever had. 409 1215 FOR BIG RACE IN U. S. - NEWMARKET, September 21— Papyrus, the English derby winner, began his long journey to the United States at daybreak today. He was accompanied by Bar Gold, his stable mate, which will keep him company across the Atlantic. On the way from the Green Lodge stables to the raii- road station Bar Gold shied at on€| of the many camera.men, but Papy- tus, docile and imperturbable as ever, fook no notice of the incident. Papyrus was quickly boxed and placed on board the special train with Bar Gold by his side. At Clap- ham Junction the two horses were transferred to another special train which conveyed them to Southamp- ton, where they were taken on board the iiner Aquitania, The derby winner appeared in thor- ough racing fettle, having fully re- covered from the effects of the three cuts he received In the running of the St. Leger. Basil Jarvis, the colt's trainer, said he was uncertain how the ~ocean voyage would affect Papyrus, but he was confident the English horse's American opponent would not have things all his own way. Veterinary Surgeon Jones of New- market will go with Papyrus as medical adviser. English betting men are already of- fering odds of 4 to 1 that Papyrus will not gefeat the American cham- plon.

WORLD RIFLE MARK BROKEN BY MARINE CAMP PERRY, Ohio, September 21 —The national - individual rifle matches, postponed because of rain, were fired at the National Rifle A sociation tournament here today. The national individual pistol match also was on the program. Another world rifle record was broken here when Corporal James R. Tucker, United States Marine Corps, won the individual Palma match. His | practice of the squad is the bid for score of 224 out of a possible. 225, | was one point better than the former record established by Corporal N. C. Reeves, also the Marine Corps, at Sea- girt, N. J., In 1914 Capt. James T. Campbell of the coast artillery, finished second with 223, which equals the former record.

The Devil Dogs have been practicing since the middle of August and the Cadets since the last day of that month, so both teams are likely to be well grounded in whatever kinds of offense they will use this year. If the day is not too hot, foot ball about as good as any of the season may be seen. And no matter what the weather conditions, foot ball far in advance of what usually is looked for in an opening game should be m evidence froni the first blast of the whistle until the wind-up.

But tomorrow is the opening and carries all the importance which a taches to an inauguration of any- thing. It will be foot ball, and a great many persons will make sp cial efforts to see one of these con- tests just because they desire to see a gridiron game, In lieu of regular games George- town, George Washington and Uni- versity of Maryland probably will put their “squads " through long scrim- mages—probably between two teams playing as nearly under the condi- tions of a regular game as possible. All three of these squads have reached the stage where they may easily up under some rough work. all three already have had lively sessions at scrmmaging, but most all the scrimmaging so far has been g an effort to develop accuracy in thfee or four plays with few at- tempts to simulate actual game con- ditions. A dozen candidates for Catholic | University's foot ball team reported to Coach Tom Gormley and his as- sistant, Jack Hegarty, vesterday on Killion Field, at Brookland, for initial practice. Among the veterans at hand were Tobin, guard; Kerrigan, end; Brennan, quarterback; Moore, end, and Breslin, substitute baci. Of the 1922 freshmen eleven Northrup, tackle, and Donoghue, quarterback, were present. Lawler, guard, and Marshall and Garvan, backs of the 1921 seasdh, again joined the squad. Newcomers were Ryan and Woods. The squad {s expected to grow con- siderably Monday and reach its full strength numerically by' Wednesday, when the university classes begin. Head Coach Jackle Georgetown Maloney of University’s gridiron squad will view with interest the Virginia Military Institute-Marine battle at Lexington tomorrow, for his charges are to tackle the Quan- tico aggregation at American League | Park two weeks later. Georgetown | is more than anxious to turn the| tables on the Marines for the defeat | suffered last season. The Hilltoppers | were given a good drill yesterday but more serious work will be their| portion next week, when the tenta- tive regular eleven will be sent against a team equipped with Marine formations. One of the sensations of the early Al leathers — individual styles in this Sale. the center berth made by Jerry Mini- han, a 150-pounder. Despite his lack of avoirdupois, he is unusually ag- gressive and well versed in the rudi- ments of playing the important pivot position. Freshman team candidates took the field vesterday under the direction of Bill Kenyon, former star back at the Hilltop. Summer weather yesterday took much of the speed out of the George Washington squad and their drill was somewhat sluggish, although Coach Bill Quigley kept the candi- dates at work for two hours. Little more than the customary early sea- son training was attempted, how ever. 'HORSESHOE HURLERS WILL RESUME PLAY CLEVELAND, Ohlo, September 31 The second round of play in the men’s tournament of the Natlonal Horseshoe Pitchers' Assoclation, In terrupted by rain yesterday, was on today's program, as well as the first round in the women's tournament halted by a fist fight between the husbands of two of the contenders yesterday.
