Never once in the five derbies that have been run has the favorite won. In the third renewal of the Race- land Derby, W. T. “Fatty” Ander- son entered his wonder horse Car- laris. Other owners, startled by the advent of the horse that won the Coffroth and other rich stakes, declared their entrics out | until only five colts went to the post. Among these was Malcolm B, Jr. Chinn. Carlaris was away and in the backstretch opened a lead of 20 lengtns. The crowd laughed. At the mile, a8 horse from the ruck came up to challenge. It was Maleolm B., Jr Jockey Philpot, on Carlaris, breezing home, but when he s ed danger he attempted to lift mount forward. Carlaris responded gamely, but the chestnut contender closed up.

Harvard vs. Penn Cambridge, Mass., Nov. 10 (P— .| A horde of faithful rooters from the | distant precincts of the University of Pennsylvania invaded here today to see their football team do battle | with a Crimson eleven that for the first time in five years reigned a fav- orate for a major encounter, Penn and Harvard were meeting in Boston for the first time since 1904 when the Ben Frankline rode roughshed over the local boys, 11-0. Last year Penn repeated the triumph at Philadelphia. Harvard has been made a4 10 to 8 favorite on its rec- ord but despite that, the two elevens seemed rather evenly matched., Both {are rugged and fast but whereas H d has every regular fit and 1y for action, Penn is minus the ervices of Monk, a powerful guard. Fhe Quaker squad was evidently in buoyant spirits and anxious to | repeat last weck's success when it | downed Penn State, but Harvard's successive victories over Dartmouth and Lehigh certainly had done nothing to impair Crimson confi- dence, Although there was every prospect that toduy's game would be one of the best of the season, the stadium probably will not be full. Not in many major encounters have there been tickets obtainable on the eve of the battle, except at exorbitant but last night there was still v of pastchoards at the list | quotations.

FARRELL NEA Service Sports Writer Two of the greatest centers in the country and perhaps the {wo greatest on any football ficld will | engage in a duel on November 17 that probably will help the experts decide which is to be the center on the 1928 All-America eleven, Chuck Howe, Princeton captain, and Dud Charlesworth, the big star of the Yale line, seem to be the outstanding pivot men of the year and the Yale-Princeton game ought to decide which one of these two stars is entitled to the place of honor. Until Howe and his Princeton boys journeyed westward to Colum- bus to play Ohio State, the Western Conference offered as one of the im- portant candidates for the All- America team, *he huge Ohio State sophomore center, 1'red Barratt. Barratt went into the game against Howe with the opportunity of showing a distinguished band of experts in the press box that he was all of what had been said of him {in reports from the scouts. The week before the Princeton game, Barratt had shown up Ran- dolph, the Indiana center, who had been advanced as his only sectional rival, and in the Michigan Barratt’s work was mindful of Rill at Dartmouth that the nobles !'still shooting at. But the Ohio State man shown up badly by Howe in the Princeton game and it was his mis- fortune that his one bad game of the season may have been dis- played in the presence of a jury that will carry the picture of the poor performance through the re- mainder of the season. It is true that Barratt was not in the best of physical condition but he had no excuse for having missed two attempts at placement g and for having failed to convert a point ‘after touchdown that would State, He was off-side frequently during the whole game and it was a pen- alty for his off-side play that put one touchdown was scored. Howe not only won the decision over Barratt but he worked plenty on Raskowski Ohio State's All- America tackle of 19 and Howe and RBarfield, the Princeton tackle, did things to the big Buckeye line that the experts were sure couldn’t be done. Charlesworth carried last vear the reputation of one of the finest linemen in foot- ball and he has been living up to the reputation all season. It he outplays Howe in the Princeton stadium he will need no other recommendation for first place or man’s team and it Howe out- points him his right to the honor should e heyond dispute, NAVY-MICHIGAN Conch Bin am Confident 'F Midshipmen Will Continue Win- ning Streak Today., Raltimore, Md., 10 () With three teams ready to shoot at Michigan, Coach Bill Ingia confident that the Navy would con tinue its winning toda inst the \\l»\\\llu»\ Michigan's embis. v streak »endicitis, and start in his place accor Tad Weimean, crowd of E 1 a sl yable 50,000 sioux | Steink Hulhert | Weichel ik Kid Gannon Wheel Left Halflucl C 5 Dahlen !

(#— Some of Gene Tunney's successors may meet a Chinese champion one of these days if the aim of China's boxing promoters is achieved. The government has organized a boxers’ bureau, and climination cu..tests are to be held in vant== parts of | the country for a tournament in Nanking. Dr. C. T. Wang, minister of for- cign affairs, has taken a great in- terest in the new national institute ot boxing, of which Gepcral Chang Chi-kiang, former military governor of Charhar, is the director. The general plans to preserve the |old style Chinese boxing, which | criginated here ahout A. D. 500, and at the same time iIntroduce the Western type of fighting, which would make {t possible for the Chi- i nesc to meet opponcnts from other parts of the world. The Chinese system of boxing, as practiced thousands of years, is more of a graceful exercise than hoxing as it is known in the Unit- ed Btates, and no blows are struck. General Chang has requested the | provincial authorities to send can- didates for honors as well as ex- perts in the sport to the boxing tournament here this fall.

COACH' RECORD BROKEN IN GAME Nebraska Cornhuskers Humble Missouri Tigers in Meeting Lincoln, Neb., Nov, 10. (#—The long record of victories of Gwin Henry coached teams over those prepared by Ernest E. Bearg was broken with the humbling of the Missouri Tigers by the Nebra.ka Cornhuskers, The victory shot "Nebraska far in front as a contender for the Mis- souri Valley conference title. The good-natured feud between Henry and Bearg began in the Kansas conference. Henry was di. recting athletics at the College of Emporia and Bearg ruled at W burn college, Topeka. Henry's teams always defeated Washburn; in tact, almost every- body else, as Emporia lost only three games in the flve years Hen- ry was there. Gwin left Emporia for Columbia in 1923 and the following year RBearg changed his address to Line coln, but until after the football season. Missourl won from Ne. braska, 9 to € in 1925, 14 to 7 in 1926 and 7 to 6 last year. 7400000000 NUTMEG ELEVEN TO PLAY IN STAPLETON TOMORROW New Britain’s Foothall Team Faces Toughest-Opposi- tion of the Year In Staten Island — Local Players All Reported In Prime Condition For a Hard Battle—Opponents a Combination of Leading Grid Stars In Country—Hardware City Fans to See the Game—Details of Trip, BIG TEN TITLE AT STAKE TODAY Undisputed Leadership fo Be Fougbt lor on Vlestom/Fields Chicago, Nov, 10 (A—Undisputed Icadership of the rapidly closing Rig Ten football champlonship race was at stake at Columbus teday between two undefeated elevens, Ohio State and To Upwards of 70,000 spectators ex- pected to watch the clash, the headline attraction of the Big Ten's program. Iloth elevens are heavy- weights and both have shown such » versatile attack in their games this season against different ponents that the result was regard- ed as & toss up. Considerable feeling was sand- wiched inte the fray by repoyts that lowa fans had questioned the eligi- bilities at Jowa State two years ago, but Jowa authorities denied that any protest would be made, Hoping for a tie or an Jowa vic- tory, the Wisconsin team undefeated but tied, was to clash with the cellar team of the conference, Chicago, at Madison, in the other important game of the conference program.

C. soc- cer team of this city will go to Bridgeport tomorrow to play the Bwedish A. C. team of that city. The players are asked to meet at the corner of Arch and Maln streets at 11 a. m, op- | Tomorrow, the Nutmeg A. C. Football teamn will travel to Staple- ton, 8. 1., to meet the strongest grid- iron combination encountered this season. The local squad will make the trip by train leaving here in the morning in high hopes that they will return at night victors in the contest. That this is a man-sized job is recognized by every member of the ieam. The “Stapes” this year form the strongest combination ever to represent the Staten Island club and they have reserve material enough to put in a second team equally as good as the first one. New Britain has signed a new player in the person of Brodley, All-Bridgeport tackle. “Uuk” Con- ley, it is reported, is not in the best of health and he may not be ahle to start tomorrow. In case this ap- pens, Brodley will be sent in at tackle and Werwuiss will be shifted to end. Richtmyer may also be signed to take care of a wing po- sition. The rest of the team to a man all report themselves in prime condi- tion for a hard hattle. The backfie:d will be composad of the same group as has carried the team through five victories this season. Radzewich will pilot the attack with Belonki and Buckley at the halves and Davis liable to start at fullback. McLean formery of Georgetown will play his first game with New Brit- ain. A group of New Britain fans are planning to make the trip to the gamay, A special bus has been char- tered and applications made will fill the bus to its capacity. The local team will not lack for support from the lusty throats of the New Britainites who are present and al- though the locals are the underdogs in the scrap, they can see nothing but victory ahead. ARRANGE FOR TWO GAMES Georgia Tech and North Caro- lina recently signed a contract whereby North C lina will ap- pear in Atlanta in 1929 and Geor- gia T will visit Chapel Hill in 1930.
