Shawnee-on-Deleware, Penn., Oct. 12.—Although he had been out of competitive golf practically all sea- son Gardiner W.

Ithaca, Oct. 12.—The scholastic trouble which for a time threatened to take “Dutch” Hoffman, the only “C" man on the Cornell squad, away from the football eleven this fall has been averted by means of a statement made by the acting captain of the Red and White team. Hoffman was accused of cribbing last spring, and because there were no athletics at the university then and college ended before he learned of | the accusation he left for the sum- mer vacation without clearing the matter up. When he learned that he had been placed on probation for not answering the charge he at once went to the authorities and made his statement. ANOTHER W TED YARN. Lew Stone Beats Others to It for Original Series Story. ‘Winsted, Conn., Oct. 12.—A number of Winsted’'s girls, who are backing the Giants in the World’s Series, have shown their loyalty to New York by discarding their white socks. Young women admirers of the Chi- cago team, noting the change in hos- iery from white to black, say the “New York girls” must have a pre- monition of the final outcome of the series. CANOLE GETS BOUNCE. Providence, R. I. Oct. 12.—Martin Canole has been bounced as official referee of the National A. C., of Prov- idence. Two nights ago Canole ref- ereed a bout between Johnny Rus- sell, New York’'s crack flyweight and Barney Snyder of Boston. Prac- tically every person in the house be- lieved that Russell had won by a wide margin, but Canole raised Snvder's hand in token of victory. The deci- sion proved irritating to fans and club officials alike with the result that Canole will not referee any more bouts at the club. EVENTS TONIGHT Lyceum theater, superior photo plays.
