Selection of this ate was announced here today as the tesult of an agreement between Presi- lent Lynch of the National and Presi- dent Johnson of the American league who under the national agreement are authorized to determine this starting point for the framing of major league schedules. Mandot Has Saved $20,000. New Orleans, Nov. 6.—Joe Mandot, the local lightweight, has saved up a little more than $20,000 this year without counting his share from the battle with Ad Wolgast. In his first battle of the year, with Pal Moore, he made $1,000. Since then he has met Jeck Redmond, Owen Moran, Jake Abel, Young Saylor, Harry Trendall, Ray Temple, Willle Ritchie, Temple again and then Joe Rivers. FOOTBALL NOTES. Lehigh has gone back to first prin- ciples, the work of the eleven recently indicating a slump. McCaffrey has replaced Vela at left end. The squad is In none too good condition and will do only light work for a couple of days. Keady and Greenback are still on the list of disabled. Englehorn of Dartmouth, as last year, is playing an excellent game at tickle and looms up a promising can- didate for the all-Eastern eleven. An- other man worth watching is Bason, Wesleyan's quarterback. No quarter- back on any eleven has performed so brilliantly so far as Bacon. McReavey and Ingram are putting in a big bid for regular places in the Annapolis back field. Captain Rodes is being tried at quarter, but will not be retained there, as that position is well enough cared for. The backfield places are considered open and the coaches say that not a single man has come up to their expectations. Mitchell, the Brown center, is in a bad way, as a result of his recent ex- perience at Cambridge. The pounding Harvard gave him will take a few days for him to forget. The rest of the Brown squad is somewhat mussed up, but no one is in real bad shape. The coaches threaten to make two or three big changes in the lineup before the Yale game, The victory over Bucknell has brightened the atmosphere at Ithaca. The coaches think the team is now “on the way.” For the first time this weason, every available varsity man is in good condition, including Captain Butler, Cornell hopes to send Will- jams home beaten and is preparing | faithfully for the Berkshire boys. Fullback is an open position, Under- hill, Hill and Miller all being in the hustle for the place. Captain Butler may be kept out of the Williams game, as the coaches want him to be in the best of trim for the more im- portant engagements. MOTORCYCLE NOTES. The city of Spokane, Wash,, has add- ed another motorcycle to its police de- partment. In a recent 103-mile run of the Free. port, IlL, Motorcycle club, 20 of the members finished the trip, 11 of whom bad perfect scores, the recent addition of two new mo cles, the building inspectors’ department of Cleveland now has 11 motorcycles In use. Bix enthusiastic motorcyclists of Medera, Cal, loaded down with boost- ing material for their home city, are motoring to Los Angeles.

Gold and silver medals were awarded to those making a perfeot or near perfect score, So far this year the city auditor of Lima, Ohlo, has issued 253 motorcycle tags, which represents more than twice the number of machines sold during FIVE UNBEATEN COLLEGE ELEVENS (e ssne Yale, Harvard, Carlisle, Swarthmore and Penn. State Yet to Meet Defeat—Every Team Scored Upon—Vanderbilt’s Total Points 342. ‘With Princeton's defeat Saturday the number of unbeaten elevens is now but five, Yale, Harvard, Carlisle Swarth- more and Pennsylvania State. Every- body has been scored upon and every- body has scored, which is something which could not be said of last season. But the singular feature of the statis- tics of the teams is that Vanderbilt has amassed 342 points and Carlisle just two less. The southerners have play- ed but six games and have averaged 57 points to a game, while the Indians have averaged 38 in nine matches. The Redskins also played a “half-and- half” game with a university of To- ronto team, so that if jts points in this xehibition were included, Carlisle would lead the fleld and i fits ambition is realized it will have totaled 500 points at the conclusion of the season.

St. Louis, Nov. 6.—Miller James Huggins is the new manager of the Cardinals. At a conference with Mrs. Attorney Lon Hocker the little second baseman signed the papers that make him the successor of Roger Bresna- han. The terms of the contract call for Huggins to manage the Cardinals for just one year, 1913, this news being dellvered by Attorney Hocker. “Ev- erything has been completed, Huggins is manager and Mrs. Britton is sat- isfied as well as Huggins,” sald Hock- er. Almost since the day it was an- nounced that Roger Bresnahan was dismissed it has been hinted that Hug- gins would be the new manager, 5 played at fullbac Helen Hathaway,Robinson. Britton and | TIGER AND INDIAN TIED IN TOUCHDOWNS. Pendleton and Thor Have Each ..Crossed the Goal Line 14 Times— Carlisle vs. West Point. The total grist \of touchdowns for Captain Thorpe of the Indians rose to 14 last Saturday, which makes him |and Pendleton of Princetdn the lead- ers of the season in that department. Each hae made 14. The Indians al- | ways have been a big scoring team, | but it is also characteristic of them that they have been scored on at a more extensive rate than is generally the case with a team of so much | strength otherwise. It would appear | that there is a wider gap between their strength in offense and defense than is true of most teams of their caliber. However, in their expenditure of en- ergy on attack they bring in the { points so plentifully that weaknesses | of defense aren't sufficlent to check | their victorious marches, A better idea could be had of just how strong the red men are this year if they played Harvard, Yale of Princeton. None of these three is on e Carlisle schedule. Still the In- dians have a game on for next Sat- i urday which is likely to test their | scoring ability better than any pre: They are to play the v, and owing to the effectiveness of the Army defense it is seldom that any opponent thrives much in point | malking, even if it beats the West Pointers. The Army has as good a pair of ends as any team in the east, and probably the best lineman in the colntry, Devore, In breaking through and spilling plays behind the line, and if the Indians can rip the Army de- fense apart enough to keep up their average of 87 points a game they | must have an exceptionally powerful | attack. Indeed, it takes a powerful attack to score half that many points on the Army by rushing. WOODROW WILSON / SEES CONNECTICUT PRACTICE | Regulars Show Up in Fine Form— Two Touchodwns Against Scrubs. Princeton, N. J., Nov, 6.—President- elect Woodrow Wilson visited Univer- sity fleld today and for twenty min- utes viewed the practice of the Prince- | ton football team. He discussed the team’s chances against Yale with sev- eral of the coaches. For the first time since the Harvard game scrimmage work was indulged in. The varsity appeared greatly ben- efited by their lay off and fairly smoth- ered the scrubs both in attack and on defense. With unlimited downs the | serubs were unable to make any head- way against the regular eleven and were frequently thrown for considera- ble loss. When the regulars were given the ball they succeeded in mak- {ing twe touchdowns in rapld succes- sion. DeWitt and Bluethenthal in the lineup today. were not . F. Trenkman and Swart at cen- ter. Dunlap, who dislocated his shoul- der in the Harvard game, was in uni- form, but was kept out of the scrim- mage. $12500 for Yearling Trotter. Lexington, Ky., Nov. 6.—The record price for a vearling tritter in Ken- tucky for a number of years was paid terday for Airdale by Fragantle, Tanny Summers. J. Howard Fird gave J. L. Tarlton $12,500 for the full brother of his Kentucky futurity win- ner, Lord Allen. Alirdale, driven by Hunter Moody, astonished the trotting horse world early in the fall by going a mile over the Kentucky Association track in 2.151-4, cutting 33-4 seconds off the time made a few days before by Pater Volo, a son of Peter the Great, and setting a mark for a yearling trotter which may stand for years, FINANCIAL AND COMMERGIAL ELECTION NOT A FEATURE. Little Consideration Given It by Speculators in Stock Market. During the first session of the stock exchange the undertone of irregularity and indecision suggested the thought that the speculative element seemed unable to grasp the significance of yesterday’s election. Prices opened with substantial gains under London’s lead, then fell back in numerous instances to below Mon- day’s closge, after which the market was temporarily left to its own de- vices. In the afternoon, however, a con- certed buying movement in the specu- lative favorites, chiefly Union Pacific, Canadian Pacific, Reading, United States Steel and Amalgamated Cop- per sent these and other issues up to two to five points from the low. There was_some shading of prices due to profit- taking anqd six per cent. money, but the movement was resumed and prices attained a higher level in the final dealings with pronounced strength to the active close. Trading in the last two hours lifted the day’s total well above all recent records. General conditions abroad were un- doubtedly factors in the rise. Advices from continental centers imparted a more hopeful view to the Balkan sit- uation and the trend of events in Lon- don, Paris and Berlin indicatdd that Europe’s financial interests were pre- pared to meet the supremacy of the democratic party in the nation with absolute equanimity, Call money was easier at the outset, opening at flve per cent., but advane~ ing to six in the final hour on belated borrowing. The time money market was dull with offerings less free for longer dates, Commercial paper was in increased demand, The bond market was broad, active and flrm, Total sales, par value, amounted to $2,500,000, United States bonds were unchanged on call.

Smith and wife chose a novel method of traveiing to their new home town when they recently changed their residence from Syracuse, | N. Y, to Los Angeles, Cal. They | erossed the continent in a Maxwell | car, taking with them the family dog | and parrot. No preparations were | made for camping or for taking on| supplies. Instead they depended on | roadside hotels or farm houses, and | were forced to remain in the car all| night on three occasions. Difficulty was experienced in getting hotel accommodations, but it was easy to get gasoline. Mr. Smith said he paid prices ranging from 12 to 50 cents a gallon. Although delayed by heavy rains in the mountains of Colorado and Wyom- ing they professed to enjoy every min- ute of their trip. regulations en- In the opinion of L. N. Powers of | New York, who has been driving a horsepower Peerless about Europe for the last three years, a well built American car is much more desirable on European roads than one of foreign manufacture. In the London corre- spondence of one of the New York newspapers he was quoted recently as | saying: “Though I intended to spend only eight months in Europe, I have been here now for twenty-seven, and ,will I have motored through Great | Britain and the continent and given | my car the hardest kind of work. “Yet the expense for repairs has been only $25. I had the car exam- to be as good as new. Forelgn makers seem unable to belleve that my ex- pense for repairs has been so low.” While the value and necessity of first class county and township roads is generally recognized, it is the re- sult of costly experience in various states that there must be a develop- ment of trunk line highways in the establishment of comprehensive state road systems. This question is in- volved vitally in the present New York state situation. Of the 80,000 miles of road in the state, 4,000 have been improved as state or county high- ways, 4,000 macadamized as town roads, 10,000 miles improved by towns as gravel roads, and some 40,000 miles have been shaped to some extent, with approximately 26,000 miles remaining in their original condition.
