ARMY-NAVY GAME NOT TO BE AT CAPITAL Official Persons Ask Too Many Privi- leges—Possible There May Be No Game. Annapolis, Aug. 18.—Although it had been regarded as a settled fact here that the Army-Navy football game would be played in Washing- ton on November 28 this year, the official announcement was made to- day that the Capital City had been abandoned as a possible scene of the game and that negotiations would have to begin again. The matter has been referred to the secretaries of the services and it is hoped that an arrangement will be made, though it is admitted that it is a possibility that there will be no game. New York and Philadelphia are the most likely places for the game if it is arranged, though the Navy would exercise its choice by naming Baltimore if ground with suf- ficlent seating capacity could be ob- tained. No statement was made as to the reason for this sudden change of base, *but it is understood that the only possible grounds in Washington were the polo grounds, a government property near the White House, and that the use of them was coupled with such conditions in the way of privileges for official persons that the arrangements could not be made. The Army representatives insist that they must have 20,000 seats placed at their disposal, and this of course means that a park with accommodations for 40,000 must be procured. The Navy is willing to accept Philadelphia, but the only possible grounds which will meet the conditions are the parks of the professional ball clubs. The only other possibility is New York, and to this the Navy objects on account of the distance. Navy men, however, are a unit for playing the game under the best conditions which can be ar- ranged.

Motoring Department—Do you ad- vise using the emergency brake in or- dinary driving, or should it be re- served for special cases?—A, C. As its name implies, the emergency brake is there for use in an emer- gency such as the fallure of the foot brake or when the foot brake alone is not sufficient to stop the car as quickly as desired. However, it Is well to use the hand brake frequently. The foot or service brake will then last longer and will require less ad- justment, If one becomes accustomed to the frequent use of the emergency brake he will instinctively apply it in case of an emergency. Motoring Department—I had my car in storage for about six weeks and while attempting to start it the other day I found there was no current in the storage battery. A friend of mine told me it was sulphated. I am not very familiar with the electrical part of the car and am at a loss to know what to do.—Owner. Sulphating is the result of allowing icans, to accept the management of the St. Louis Federal league club. He will supplant Mordecai Brown, pres- | ent manager of the club, on Friday. Brown said today that he would not ‘play under Jones. Brown added that he had not been notitied of any change in the managership of the team, but if the reported change was true he had not been treated fairly by the club owners. He insisted he had not had proper support. Re- garding Brown's future, President Gilmore said the league owed too vards, one mile, three mile, running | former munager of the Chicago Amer- [ fao~m. much to him not to take care of him. Several clubs want him .as pitcher, and among them, it is said, is Chi- cago, which is likely to get him if he is willing. TIGERS TRIM ANNEX. | Blanchardand and Ca€lus Work Hard In Pitchers' Battle.

Motoring Department—Although It is carried on ball bearings, a squeak issues from the worm and gear steer- ing of my car, Kindly explain,— Reader, The squeak is due to lack of proper lubrication, There is usually a plug in the steering head housing where grease can be injected. There is con- siderable bearing surface between the worm and sector, and if this is dry a squeak and unnecessary wear will re- sult, Wherever there are bearing sur- faces there should be lubrication.
