Before departing the pale hosed athletes scattered a lot more gloom around the meadow under Coogan’s Bluff and for more than six innings had the Yanks staggering and floundering around, all sct for a drop into second place. An unexpected break in the fortunes of the Hugmen made a belated arrival in the seventh inning, in the shape of a streak of wildness such as Borneo never conld improve upon, and through it the Yanks rode to victory by the score of 11 to 8.

WESTERN FOOTBALL PLAYERS PREPARING are as Ten University - Football Teams Hold First Practice, Preliminary to Opening Games, Chicago, Sept. 15.—The ten western conference university football squads today held their first practice in prepa- ration for a season which finds mest of the stronger elevens of the 1920 season faced with the task of replac- ing a majority of their former stars, and two of the tail-enders of last year straining to develop teams which will make creditable showings on schedul- ed eastern invasions. The interest was generally accorded Tilinois, Michigan, Wisconsin and Ohio State university championship teams, temporarily subdued by attention giv- en Chicago and Indiana, the two eleyens which will carry western con- ference colors into stadiums of the larger eastern schools for the first tifne in years. Chicago faces Princeton at Prince- ton October 22, in the first of a home and home series. Coach Alonzo Stagg is, pointing his team entirély for the clash with Princeton. At Indiana university, Coach “Jum- bo'* Steihm has an even more difficult task than Stagg. for (his eleven, one of the weakest last season, and with few of its stars back in school, must trade thuds with Harvard at Cambridge on October 8. In the conference itself, Ohio State, in order to retain its 1920 champion- ship may need even more good fortuns than last season when two games were won by one point and another by a touchdown actually made after the fi- nal whistle had been blown. Michigan and Wisconsin are expect- ed to show considerable strength, al- though the latter lost many stars, while Tllinois, Minnesota, Northwest- ern, Towa and Purdue are the “dark horses™ of the season.

Burton Shipley who is coaching the Delaware college football eleven, signed a contract here yesterday to manage the Martinsburg (Blue Ridge league) baseball team next season. 2 H S. SQUAD HAS | “HARD DAY’S WORK ) Coaches Cassidy and Leghorn3 Drill Candidates in Scrimmage Coach George Cassidy of the High school eleven put his charges through a strenuous 'program of scrimmaging, tackling, punting, etc., last.night in what was the first real hard day’s work ince the boys were called out this year. The sorhe 50 candidates show improvement, generally speaking, and the process of selectingia squad ‘will shortly be gotten under way. The school s fortunate this year in having a number of capable ap- pearing ‘candidates for each of the positions and indications are'that every man on the squad will, be obliged to show his mettle to ho'd down a place on the team. The coaching squad has assured the boys that the work of picking a first squad will not be under- taken until every man has shown what he is capable of doing and in some ‘instances displacement of letter: men is anticipated. Coach George Leghorn has been -out with the boys for the past.week and has givén the jinemen some valuable pointers in de- fensive tactics as well as “roughing’” it. It is expected that two complete teams will be given an opportunity 1o stack up.against the Alumni eleven in the opening game of the season, ona | the management is getting Hartford Club is Composed of Former Clay-Hill and Rambler-Tiger Players | —Are After Games. The Columbia football club of Hart- ford has organized for the season and in touch with the managers of fast teams throughout the state with a view to booking games. The club will be com- posed of former members of last year's Clay-Hill and Rhmbler-Tiger teams and gives promise of being one of the fast- est aggregations in the state. Teams desirous of booking this at- traction may get in touch with Man- ager George I'. Blesso at § State street Among other teams, the Columbias are anxious to hear from the Nutmegs. Hayes and Peplau Leave For Training Joln Hayes and Robert Peplau left this morning for Greenfield, N. H. where they will report for football train- ing with other candidates for places on the Choate squad. Both local boys have . been given scholarships at tne Wallingford school so that they may play on the school's team. Peplau was awarded the special monogram of the local school for winning his letter in threg sports last year. Hayes holds letters for baseball and football. | | COLUMBIAS HAVE TEAM [UFFY’S REE[IRT MAY BE RESTORED Special Session Tomight Boston, Sept. 15.—The record of § 5 seconds for 100-yards, made by Arthur Duffy of Georgetown univer- sity at the inter-coliegiate champion- ship games in 1902, which stood as the amateur record for the time and distance until it was expunged in 1905, may be restored to the official books. The registration committee of the Ne England A. A. U, to which the na- tional body referred for investigation a proposal to put it back will hold a special meeting tonight to act on the matter. After a racing tour of England. con- tinental Europe, South frica ond Australia, Duffy was charged in 1505 with having admitted profe: alism in a series of articles which appearged under his name. One item in the de- fense now being made is an affidavit purporting to be that of Bernard Me- Fadden to the effect that it was he who wrote the articles, not Duffy. The report of the New Erngland reg- istration committeec will be made to the A. A. U. convention at Chicago in Noveraber. week from Saturday. This plan has been dcemed advisable since the coaching staff will be given an oppor- tun’ty to observe a greater number of candidates under actual playing con- ditions, and accordingly make selec- tions for the first squad. 5 A series of trick plays, several of which are original in the . coaching squad, were. tried out last night and worked well, The plays will be put in use during Saturday’s games. Managers Hayes and = Nesta are communicating with the Wallingford High school in :an effort to arrange for a_game to be played October !. The Wallingford team has not been called out for practice as vet and it is probable that the squad will not be in condition to engage in battle with the local team. If not, the manage- ment will make an effort to book a game elsewhere. SOCCOLY 1S WINNER Defeats Alderman in Rogers’ Billiard Tournament By Making High Run of 26 Balls.

On the next play Soccoly got a break and made the Yigh run of 26, winning the Zame. PETER MANNING DOES WELL. Syracuse, N.
