LE GORE WILL PLAY IN PROFESSIONAL GAME Dcbarred Yale Fullback Will Play Humphreys Next® Sunday Is Report. Bridgeport, Oct. 26.—Harry LeGore, the Yale backfield star, whose cent disbarment from college athletics re- created a sensation-all over the coun- try, will make his debut as a pro- fessional football player in this city next Sunday, according to word re- ceived yesterday from the manage- ment of the Humphrey eleven of New It is claimed that LeGore will surely take part in the game un- less the Yale athletic committee rein- states him this week at the request of Harvard and Princeton. The game in which it is planned to use LeGore is the Humphrey engage- ment against the strong Remington Arms eleven of this city. This eleven contains the pick of the state title last year. There is strong rivalry between the Humphrey and Reming- ton players and for that reason the New Haven boys desire to gather a winning team. It is said they have signed several Fordham stars. These boys will play under assumed names, however, as the Fordham faculty is very strict in its athletic regulations. The contest will be played at New- field Park, where the Remingtons have been playing to enormous crowds this season. A.B.JOHNSON, bD. D. 8.

BIG FOUR DRIVERS LEAD ALL OTHERS Murphy, Geers, Cox and M’Donald Farin Fo_re in Grand Circuit Wins | i | i New England, Oct. 26.—The trot- ters and pacers that are giving New England the best racing it has en- joyed in years are at the Hillsgrove track, just outsde of Providence, this week, and the entry points to some really fine sport, Racing at ““The Grove” has al- ways been popular with followers of the twice-arounds, and the meeting which opens tomorrow with the added attraction of some live Grand Circuit blood should with Indian summer weather be the best fall racing car- nival in a long time. Practically all of the horses that gave Windsor such a good meeting are now quartered at the track. The classes at Hillsgrove are somewhat changed from those of last week, and With the few horses that have cut in for a last try for winter money the fields will line up differently. The program for this week is: Tues- day, 2:25 pace, 2:12 pace, 2:25 trot; Wednesday, 2:19 trot, 2:16 pace, 2:09 pace; Thursday, 2:16 trot, free-for- all pace, 2:20 pace; Friday, 2:22 trot, 2:14 pace, 2:18 pace, 2:13 trot. The Grand Circuit Season. The ew York Sun” in an exhaus- tive review of the Grand Circuit has the following interesting facts and figures: The Grand Circuit opened at North Randall July 19 and closed at Lex- ington October 17, during which time 206 races were trotted and placed and $427,285 paid out in stakes and pur- ses. Notwithstanding that it was the rainiest season in racing history the average time was the lowest on record—2:08 1-5 for 593 heats trot- ted and paced in races. The 6-year-old stallion Peter Scott, owned by Henry W. Oliver of Pitts- burg and raced by Tommy Murphy, easily was the first horse of the year. He won thirteen races and $36,285, lowering all previous records for races and money won, Baden’s twelve vic- tories and $35, having been the best. Murphy, for the eighth consecutive vear leads the reinsmen, with total winnings of $88,363, and Peter the Great, 2:071-4, heads the table of winning sires with $68,634 to his credit. How hard the picking is for all ex- cept a few reinsmen is aptly shown in the fact that although 301 driv- ers accepted mounts in the Grand Circuit only fifty won races. All told there were 206 contests, and of these a full 100 were won by that well known four of the Big Six—Murphy, Geers, Cox and Lon McDonald—who have finished in this order for two years. The Columbus driver, Charley Val- entine, who has been steadily improv- ing his place as a Grand Circuit win- ner, is in fifth place and Billy An- drews, although a sunstroke put him out of the circuit at Syracuse, main- tains his position as one of the six. Record of the Drivers. W. L. Snow had the least success- ful of a dozen years, which permitted Curt Gosnell, driver of Single G., and Ben White, who drove the Pastime Stable’s winners after ‘Andrews be- came incapacitated, to take positions close to the top for the first time. It is noteworthy that while that re- markable coterie of drivers, Murphy, Geers, Cox and McDonald won 101 times, they were placed in 216 oth- ers. Following is a list of the driv- ers that made a prominent showing: 1st 2nd . 3rd 4th Unp .39 32% 17% 15 26 23 11 8 35 33 17% 133% 51 16% 13% 15 11 12 8 1% Murphy Geers Cox 1 McDonald Valentine Andrews .

The statistics show that Murphy made an exceptional cam- paign with Mirthful, a mare that last year was unreliable. She started eleven times and never was worse than second. ‘While Peter Scott was winning the stakes Walter Cox’s big stallion Worthy Prince was second to him in | no less than eight races.

Possessed of phenomenal speed, he made breaks and behaved badly in every race except one. In his first start the judees put Geers behind him and that driver, be- ing a past master with a bad-headed race-horse, succeeded in winning ten races with this 5-vear-old from Il- linois. Single G.. that opened the cir- cuit conspicuously by winning the Chamber of Commerce stakes, closed it by winning the Blue Grass on the final day at Lexington, whén he was quite equal to a mile in 2 minutes. With the single exceotion of Na- poleon Direct this stallion went into winter avarters the best pacer of the year. While it is notable that Single G. won seven times in the Grand Circuit and was third or better in his cther four starts, he last year won eleven races and was second in three cthers. Another pacer of rare consistencv is the Oregon bred gelding Hal Bov. After having won sixteen races on the Pacific Coast in 1914 he was brought ever for this year's Grand Circuit, and cnly once was behind the money. What Napoleon Direct might have ac- complished but for thé accident that put him on the shelf after his first race must be left for next vear to prove. At the start he looked capabla of giving even William a battle, and although he won consecutive heats in 2:00 3-4 at Lexington two weeks ago Geers did not have him so cherry rine as at North Randall last July. Na- poleon Direct and Willlam were the only aged pacers that were unbeaten.
