Philadelphia, Oet. 25.—After having been postponed for the fifth time, there is every indication tonight that the fourth game of the world's champion- ship series between the New York Gi- ants and the Athletics will be played tomorrow afternoon:at Shibe park. Bright Sun and Drying Wind. The sun, which made its first ap- pearance in this city since Monday, October 16, shone brightly all day, and aided by a northwest breeze put the playing fleld into fairly good condition. The didmond is in far better shape than the outfleld, but a liberal use of huge sponges by & score of men under the supervision of Ground Keeper Schroeder cleared the ouffield of numerous rivulets By 2 o'clock timorrow afternoon if | the sun shines brightly up to that time | it is thought that the outfleld will be in practically normal condition. Both teams took advantage of the | pleasant weather to prepare for what | is thought will be one of the most bit- terly fought games of the series, Baker Keeps Up Home Run Hitting. | _ Manager Mack had his men on the | diamond_at Shibe park for full two hours.

Rumors to that effect were ad- mitted to be true by Charles Comiskey, president of the club. Hugh Duffy, who managed the team this year, declined to renew his con- tract. DAY OF REST FOR YALE ELEVEN Biue Wili Not Be Pointed for the Game with Brown. _New Haven, Oct. 23.—The Yale var- sity eleven was gi a complete rest today, to recover from the game Sat- urday with West Point. Tomorrow there will be a long scrimmage and every effort will be put forth to get the team in shape for the game with Brown on November 11. The game with Colgate on Saturday is not wor- rying the coaches and a good sized score is looked for, Rumors that Captain Howe would be unable to play this week are without foundation and he is expected to be on the field to- morrow. Today the freshmen were coached by ¥oster Sanford and the third and fourth elevems put through a short scrimmage. Dartmouth’s Novel Training Table. Hanover, N. H., Oct. 23.—Dartmouth | starts its training table this week with five men. A new policy Te- gard to a training table will be in- augurated by Coach Cavanaugh. In past years the table has started after the first game with 11 men, but this year it has been delayed to make the placing of a man at the table a mark of efficiency. Certain men will be placed at the table however for physical reasons and ! there will probably be men not at the table who are better football players than some of the men at it. It is Coacn Cavanaugh’s idea to make se- lections for two reasonms, first to rec- ognize good work and second to bet- ter develop some of the men. Dr. Bowler will be in charge of the table diet. Dooin Hands It to Baker. Says Manager Dooing of the PMI~ lies: “To say Frank Baker made hi terrific drive off a man who- was sll in is a shame. Baker is about the nerviest batter I ever saw, and I have looked at a few. When a man car stand up in the ninth inning, facmg one of the world's greatest pitchers, with practically the championship of nations depenuding on it, and bhe cool enough to pick out a listle five-inch sphere with a three-inch bat for a home #in, especially on tae enemy’'s grounds, he is a wonder, and ¥cu can’t take it from- him.” Weather Why battle with resulting illness when in the elements and risk what you desire more quickly and with equal satisfaction by Telephone?

Whether there is the making of a rh‘mmlonx)np team at Cambridge this fall will undoubtedly be shown Satur- day. . 1 Adams, an end. is the only Brown man to come out of the Penn scrap with any injury and his trouble is with a sprained finger, something that will not keep him out of anything. Harvard's victory over Amberst on iturday was rather disappointing. Of course the Crimson team was minus two of its strongest assets in Captain Tisher and Bob Potiter. Brown's great ambition is to defeat Penn, Harvard and Yale all in a sea- son. Last year tney beat Yale; they have alreaay beaten Penn this vear, and are now after Harvard’s scalp. Princeton, which is much of a stir in the gridiron world not creating this season, was also handed a sur- prise on Saturday, when they were held to a 0-0 score by the Middies at Z2nnapolis. Felton and Hollister played most of the game as Harvard's ends. Felton was used to do most of the Kkicking and his punts had good distance for so heavy a ball. Hollister, who played in “Bud” Smith’s place, was the one Har- vard lineman who showed real fight. Yale men remember that Jim Hogan's famous eleven six years ago lost to the Army yet turned and defeated both Harvard and Princeton. To begin with says Paul Withing- ton in criticising the Harvard eleven, there was none of that consistant hard charge in the line which drove Williams back a week ago. The line- | row's e men, instead, played high and allow- ed Amberst to get under them. This was particularly true in the play of the guards when on the defensive, with the result that several times the Am- herst forwards carried the Harvard line back four or five yards.
