This statement calls attention'to the numerous minor injuries and illnesses which have taken leading candidates from the field and which have led to the decision not to start any player who has not fully recovered. The statement follows: “Whether O’'Hearn will start the game against the Army is a question. It is known that Head Coach Jones and Trainer John Mack will start no men against the Army who are not in excellent physical condition. This applies to O'Hearn, who has been com- ing on well, but Who has not completa- ly recovered from the attack of hay fever which kept him away from the fleld the first weeks of practice. It also applies to Harry Cross, the big 215- pound guard and to Al Norris, a promising candidate for center, who played on the Freshman team last vear, While these men on paper might be first string men, it is nevertheless necessary, _in' the opinion of the coaches, for them to be in first-class shape, and to demonstrate their su- periorty ‘over, for instance, Becket at quarter, Landis at center and either Cruikskank or Gurnsey at guard. Yale has not aimed at the army game but at Princeton and Harvard, and the Army, while important from a specta- cular standpoint, is looked upon as any other early season game. “So the week of preparation for the Army game starts out with the lineup of the Yale team in no way settled largely because of minor injuries and illnesses which have kept some of the men from developing along with the progress of the season.” Lourie nnd; Garrity Back Princeton, N. J., Oct. 18.—Prince- ton’s football team, augmented by the return of Lourie, Garrity and Snively ( LOCAL H. S. HAS ENVIABLE RECORD Is Perhaps Only High School Team in League That Has Not Been ‘Scored Upon This Season. The local High school team, having shattered the record of the Holyoke High Saturday afternoon at St. Mary's grcunds, is now, as far as can be agcertained, the only High school team playing in the Connecticut cir- cuit whose goal line has not been ciossed this season. The flolyoke out- it hdd, up to Saturday, held every opposing club away from its goal lin», and this fact, together with the knowledge that the locals were a iighter team and playing with. three rgulars out of the line-up, made the defeat the more humiliating. On Saturday afternoon the team of the Bristol High school will play at SL. Mary's fleld. Followers of Bris- tol High school athletics pronounce the present squad the best in the his- tory of the school. The Bell City team scored a touchdown in its game with Meriden this season, whereas the lo- cals’ victory was the regult of ‘a field goal, booted by Mahoney. That the Meriden team also scored touchdowns is taken to indicate that the Bristol defense is not as strong as that of the N. B. H. 8. Coach George C. Cassidy had his charges: in the gymnasium last night for ‘“'skull practice”.s The mentor has the boys drilled in, some real snappy formations, several of which are be- 1ng saved for the bigger games of tha scason. The squad will be given stiff workouts today, tomorrow and Thurs- day, and a light practice Friday preparation for Saturday's contest.

In in- terviews granfed to local sport writers Ruth repeated his defiance of Com- missioner Landis’s ruling that the “barnstorming” expedition was con- trary to fhercontract of the players “We are going to play exhibition baseball unti Nov. 1,” said Ruth, “and Judge Landis is not going to stop us. I am not in any fight to see who is the greatest man in baseball. Meusel, Piercy and I think we arc doing some- thing in the interest of baseball. I dp not see why we are singled out when other big players who as members of semond and third place clubs in the world's séries money are permitted to play post-season games. I am out to earn an honést dollar and at the same time give baseball fans an opportunity to see he big players in action.” During the game Ruth.and Meusel knocked two home runs each. Sitting on the bench between innings, Ruth declared he desired no controversy with Commissioner Landis; that his contract with the Yankees had expired that he did not propose to talk of a new contract until some_ time in the winter, and that he and ' his team- mates were merely using their talents to increase their incomes. Ruth and his team left early last evening for Jamestown, N. Y., to play another exhibition tod HOREMANS PLAYS FINELY Belgian Billiardist Makes Run of 384 in Match With Yamada—Leads Jap 800 to 54. KID KAPLAN TO BOX ENGLISH CHAMPION Meriden Boy Tackles Freddie Jacks in 12-Round Go Next Satur- day Night. “Kid” Kaplan, the sterling little Meriden featherweight, will be seen in action again next Saturday night, when he tackles Freddie Jacks, the British titleholder, in the star bout before the Silver City A. C. at the Auditorfum, Meriden. The bout is scheduled over the 12-round route. Kaplan’s stock has taken a big boost in this city of late, his recent win over Billy De Foe of St. Paul, placing him in the front ranks of the feather- weights. Judging from his recent per- formances, Kaplan will soon be in line for a crack at thg best of them. Jacks has been in this country for several months, during which time he has faced some of America’s best. On last Saturday night in a Brook- lyn ring, Jacks held the tough Bobby Michaels to a draw. He has also held De Foe to a draw on two occa- sions, and is credited with decisions over Al. Shubert and Lieutenant Earl Baird. = Jacks has the distinction of staying 12 rounds with Champion Johnny Kilbane. The Meriden club mangement i{s completing an attractive card for the coming exhibition. MISS LEITCH LEADS Brilish Golf Star Has a Two Stroke Margin in Belleclaire Medal Rounad, ‘With an 81. Bayside, L. 1., Oct. 18.—After hav- ing been rebuffed in the two previoua tournaments in which sha has played since her arrival from England, Miss Cecil Leitch, British, French and Canadian women’s champion, got away to a fiying start in the invita. tion women's tournament of the Belle- claire Golf and Country club yester- day by winning the medal 1n the quali- fying round. When the eighty-five players had completed what was, to some of them at least, a rather ar- duous day, the slashing English girl’'s star was in the ascendency and sho waa leading the field by tha com- CARPENTIER NOT T0 QUIT FIGHTING Rickard Gets Word From French- man Regarding Gibbons Bout New York, Oct. 18.—Written noti- fication. that Georges Carpentier, world’s light-heavyweight champion, would come here to defend his title against Tom Gibbons in a bout under the auspices of Tex Rickard at Madi- son Square Garden next February, was received yesterday by Rickard. The information came in a letter' from Francois Descamps, manager of Car- pentier, and was in confirmation of a cablegram from Descamps which Rickard received more than a month ago. In his communication Manager Desgamps said Carpentier would ar- rive here either late in December or early in January and would be pre- pared to defend his title in the Gar- den in February. According to latest advices - from abroad Carpentier has not yet com- pletely abandonéd hope of some time wearing the world’s heavyweight ‘title. In fact, Carpentier is not even con- vinced that Champion Jack Demp- sey is his master, déspite the terrific lacing the champion gave the French- man in their memorable battle on Boyle's Thirty Acres last July. Carpentier right now is directing his attention to a battle against George Cook, an Australian heavyweight, who has attracted attention in England through knockout victories over Jack Curphey and Frank Goddard. This contest is billed for London on Dec. 2. Immediately following this bout Carpentier plans to sail for this coun- try and defend his light-heavyweight title in the Garden. Upon his per- formance in these contests will de- pend his future career in the ring. If he is successful against Gibbons the French boxer will inaugurate an- other campaign for a return battle against Champion Dempsey and will seek to have the contest promoted iff London.

Whether he, will play on Saturday against Chicago js problematical. “Hank” Garrity, who is expected to zet in the fray on Saturday, took his turn in the varsity backfleld in yester- day’s signal work. However, instead o* lining up in his usual position h caled he signals which was rathe: usual but may not be significant. The rest of the backfield places were filled by Ken Smith, Dick Newby and Ralph Gilroy. Saturday’s game with the Maroon will draw next to the largest crowd of the season to Palmer Memoria' Stadium. Gov. Edwards of New Jersev and Senator William B. McKinley of Illinois have already acepted. invita- tions to see the intersectual contest. Gov. Small of Illinois and Senator Medill McCormick have also been in- vited by the Princeton Alumni of Chi- cago. William Edges and ' Frederick Frelinghuysen, Senators from New Jersey, are also expected to attend. Army Eleven in Shape West Point, N. Y., Oct. 18.—The army eleven came out of the Wabash game in good shape physically. The Cadet’s supporters were satisfied with the team's showing against the West- erners, who were powerful defensively but whose attack was slow and lacked versatility. The work of Garbisch, Mullan, Greéne and Breiester, on the Army line was especially pleasing. Yale is Army’s objective now. The Soldiers are going to New Haven with a determined spirit and declare that Old Eli will know it has been in a hard game after next Saturday's battle. Spurred by the Navy's success over Princeton, the Army will leave no stone unturned in its preparations this week for the Yale game. Tight Work For Harvard Cambridge, 'Mass, Oct. 17.—Har- vard's football players had an easy time today on the stadium field. Pos- sibly it thec alm before the storm as, after Saturday’s lack of drive and exhibition - of costly fumbling, the coaches are hardly in a lenient mood and are likely to put the team through some fast paces before they consider it fit to match Hugo Bezdek's Penn Staters this week. Head Coach Fisher, while he de- plored the many errors in the Georgia game, feels that what was to be re- gretted most was the mental attitude of the team early in the game. He be- lieves that the easy touchdown and the fine instances gained by the Crimson's early attack made the men feel that they were going to have ~an easy proposition. Then, when hey found that the Georgians really had a fight- SMOKE J. V. 0. PERFECTO TEN CENTS QUALITY SMOKE SHOP WEST MAIN STREET third heat: and coming in second in the middle heat.

Navy in Good Shape Annapolis, Mr., Oct. 18.—The Naval Academy football squad showed little signs of the hard game against Prince- ton on Saturday when they reported for practice yesterday.
