Men Hard at Work at Madison—First Game Snpi- 26. t week of footbn.ll practice h:h:hop:l‘n that the Blue team this !‘w probably will' be lighter by sev- ounds than the one which was mn,ul by Harvard last November. Yale's chief problem this year will “be to fill the -hoeds of Ke;d;:.m l::t ear's tain, and one of the m > c\.rf players in a Yale line in _years.' Avery, the end; Pendleton, ; Warren, a first string tackle; Martyng, center, and Dunn, in the back fleld, besides two or three good subs tutes, are also among the absent year, but the Blue has a fair amount of good material year's man team to draw from. The 'k field, consisting of Ainsworth, ‘wu:un, Pumpelly, Guernsey, MasLeish ot"l the veterans and LeGore, Baston d Milburn of the 1817 team, will be strong. Hinkey will adopt an entirely ne policy this year in an att t to bring out a championship winner. Hereto- fore, about half of each season has been devoted to secret drilling behind “closed gates, much to the disappoint- ment of the big student body. This year Hinkey has announced that the #ates will be open during every prac- -tice on Yale field. He says that a se- cret practice rarely availed a Yale team anything. Hinkey is an exponent of the open game and the Elis may be -depended upon to play straight, fast football with plenty of end running and action through the line. Hinkey's career as head coach is being watched with a great deal of interest by Yale’s alumni. He was probably the best end ‘Yale ever had and his coaching meth- ods will be characteristic of Hinkey.|Chi ‘On the fleld, as a player, he was known as Yale's silent captain, and as a coach his work will be carried on ‘along quiet and simple lines. Yale has only one out of town game this year, that with Princeton on Nov. 4. On the following Saturday the immense bowl, Yale’s new athletic, stadium, will be thrown open for the' Harvard game, when 72,000 friends of ‘the two universities will be accommo- dated within the great steel and ce- ment structure. The bowl is the big- gest thing of its kind in America, if not in the world, and its opening will mark an epoch in Yale athletics. The old football fleld across the way,which has been the scene of Yale-Harvard and Yale-Princeton battles for years, wl:l be used in preliminary games It is difficult at this time to size up the material on hand, but during the week at Madison it was evident that there wero fewer “big” men in the squad than usual.” The present style of game is conducive to fast running, and Hinkey's idca will be to mould a team fuil of spced, with someone on it with ability ‘to’ kick a field goal almost as readily as Captain Brickley. During the last few years Yale has lost sev- eral big games through her Inability to beot the ball between the uprights. Guernsey, who tied the Princeton game last vear by a 34 yard drop kick, .and Pempelly, who saved Yale from defeat two years ago in Princeton by.a 50 yard kick, which is down in football history 2s one of the greatest ever made, will be drilted incessantly in the ert of drop klcl(an this year. Dr. Billy Buil of New\York, who was one of the best kickers Yalo ever turned out) will assist Hinkey in_that department of tke game. Dr. Bull was in Madison two days last week and gave the back ficld men long @rills in drop and. place kicking. Yale's first game is on Sept. 26 with the University of Maine, which Leld the Dives to & 0 to 0 score last year, Babies! Soon they will be big boys and girls, and their faces will be only a memory.

DOINGS IN THE AUTO WORLD Evolution of Motor Car Has Brought About Changes—Guide for Tourists Contemplating Trips Through Long Island —“Safety First”” Movement Will Make Nation Wide Scope—This State Will be Visited by Promoters. The evolution of the motor car in- dustry has brought a large number of changes and these effect the public in cars. A cdreful analysis of the situation shows that heavy pow- ered cars of high price will continue to be sold and the medium powered and priced cars will continue to enjoy favor. Both of these classes, however, have probably reached the limit of their appreciation, and it is to be doubted if the production of these types will materially increase in any one year. The conclusion has been forced upon the™ attention of the great majority that a car of capacity to easlly convey a limited number of persons with comfort and ease, without waste of effort or expense, fully meets the needs of convenience for travel; and it is for cars selling at less than $1,000 that the great demand will be forth- coming. It is certain that there will be motorists who will wish to have high powered, expensive cars for the love of the sportfi while others will wish. to evidence their wealth and po- sition by the costliness of their cars. The great number of thinking people, however, have already come to reali- zation that motor cars are important only as they serve personal conveni- ence in rapid ‘movement. Those persons whose attention is directed to the consideration of style appreciate that when any article comes to have an overlarge appreciation ' it then ceases to be style. In other words, immediately 55 per cent. of the trade is given to onme article, that article ceases to lead in style and becomes, from force of numbers alone, commonplace, For Conmfimlfl motorists who con- template making fall trips through Lcng and during the fall, the tol- lowing road hints may be of value. The most important highways are noted, with their condition: Queens Boulevard is in good condl- tion to Jamaica. Hillside avenue as also in fine shape tc the Rocky Hill road. Then the Jericho turnpike is in good condition through Mineola to Jericho. Here a road turns right and is fair macadam through Hicksville to Massapequa, on the South Shore road. From Jamaica the Hempstead and Bethpage turnpiges are in good con- dition and there is a good dirt road to Babylon. The road from Babylon is good to Bay Shore, and now that the repair work is completed in Bay Shore village, the road is good to Saxon ave- nue, the dividing line between Bay Shore and Islip. Here a detour is necessary over a dirt road alomg tlo north lide of the raliroad tracks East Islip. From this place the mld 1s poor to Sayville and somewhat worn and bumpy_to Patchogue. Leaving Patchogue, instead of cross- ing the raflroad, turn left into RDMII- son .Elo\lhlvll.rd ) t stretch of several miles provides vory good uv- ing to Brookhaven. From Brookhaven to Southampton the road is in better condition uuu: ever before with the exception of a few rough spots near Tangier.

This -tar, which is equipped with modern safety devices, left the city hall, New York, at 11 o'clock after receiving a note of greet- ing from Acting Mayor Hon. George McAneny, which greeting is to be con- Veved to mayors and municipal offi- cials of various citles. In charge of this car is Frederick H. Elliott, gen- eral secretary of the Safety First so: clety, who conceived the idea of o ganizing this-movement in the interest of public safety and will have personal direction of the campaign. Mr. Elliott will call upen the officials in each municipality, discuss with them the subject of safety in motoring, trafiic and transportation problems, suggest- ing safeguarding regulations and or- dinances for pedestrians and users of the streets ang highways; offer aid and suggestions to communities who are interested in cooperating with the movement by forming local Safety First societies.. An experienced driver will be at the wheel of the car and the party leaving New York will in- clude several prominent guests. At first the tour will be through New England and the east, thence to the middle west and south and later to the Pacific coast and the northwest. The states to be included in the tour are New York, New Jersey, Connecti- cut, Rhode Island, Massochusetts, Maryland, Pepnsylvania. Ohio, Michi- gan, Indiana, Illinois, North Dakota, South Dakota, Virginia, Washington, D. C., and many states on the Pacific coast and <the northwest. The first night's stop was made at New Haven. Secretary Elliott and a representa- tive of the Safety First society will employ unique methods to carry the message of ‘Safety First” to motorists and other users of highways along the route. He carries letters of introduc- tion from Hon. George McAneny, act- ing mayor of greater New York; Po- lice Commissioner Arthur Woods, Hon, Marcug M. Marks, president borough of Manhattan; Hon. Robert Adamson, fire commissioner; Hon. Willlam Mc-, Adoo, chief city magistrate, all of whom have given their hearty en- dorsement to the work of the society. The enforcing of strict traffic regu- lations is being urged by the soclety. For vln. the eight-foot rule in passing trolley cars, uniformity of speed laws, tho establishment of rotary trac systems at intersections of wide avenues, muffier cut-out ordinances, the use of headlight devices on street cars and automobiles, tire chains in wet weather, the carrying of fire ex- tinguishers, etc., are being advocated. Some cities like Boston, Syracuse, Rochester, Buffalo, Chicago, Toledo and St. Louis already have organiza- tlons of this sort and it is the inten- tion to get these to cooperate in the organization of a national body. Re- cently Mr. Elliott has been besieged ‘with letters from various boards of trads and organizations in many en- thusiastic. cities, inviting him to stop and address these bodles. M'GRAW’S HURLERS MUST WAKE UP. —_— Glants Must Show Something In the Pitohing Line In Order to Win Out, The chances of the Giants regain- lost ground seem poor unless their ? hers do far ocleverer work, The ‘allure of Marquard to win even one of his Jast ten games has been a se- vers handioap to McGraw’s men, while ares has been littla use to them all season, Of late, the latter has shown improved form, however,while Fromme also has come to time with & well pitched game, On the Boston side of the pitching proposition, Tyler was hit rather hard his last time out, but James and Ru- @olph are keeping their ends up nlce- iy, while Davis, the recruit who held Pfi adeiphte, runlesa and hitiess in one of last week's games, seems to be find that will help the pennant cha.ncel of Stallings' men -gpmlu,bly. 8t hwl- and Chi having a mn !ot third place, with the ad- vantage on the side of the Cardinals to date. Their double victory over Cincinnati recently ‘gave them some- thing of a lift, putting them within two and a half games of the Giants. The Cubs are one game to the rear. Both, as may be seen, are within striking. distance of second place, and not yet to be considered out of the pennant reckoning, if the struggling pair above them should suffer losing spells. The National leagu battle, all told, is the prettiest in many years, Boston cut into Philadelphia’s lead in the American league race during the week just ended, but the Red Sox are still seven and a balf games distant from the world’s champlons. A continuation of the slumping ten- dencies of the Athletics have shown in the last two weeks, however, - might give at least a’ semblance of interest 1o .the closing days of - the younger league's season.

Good Progress on Excavation.- and Stonework for College Buildings. Good progress is being made by Con- tractor John J. Ryan on the excavation and stonework for the first group of buildings of the Conrecticut College for Women, although just at present there is an unavoidable delay because of the non-arrival of a shipment of limestone to be used in the superstruc- ture of the science hall and Plant and Blackstone dormitories. The limestope was expected a couple of weeks ago and had it arrived the walls of the sci~ ence hall would now be rising in the air. The native stone which is to be used in connection with the limestons has been quarried by Contractor Ryan and is in readiness when the other ma- terial comes. The foundation walls of the science building ard Plant hall are completed and those of Blackstone hall nearly so. Work is being rushed as rapidly as possible and there is no question that despite the slight delaw the buildings i1l be finished in ample time for the opening of the college in September: of next year.
