Dunraven says:
Though the arguments concerning
the measurement of yachts for rating
are, think, proceeding on false prem
ises, namely. that the present rule pro-
duces an undesirable type, a change ap-
pears imminent. Would it be possible,
before recasting the rule, for a council
of yacht racing associations to approach
our American cousins with a view to
ascertain whether an interchange of
opinions would be likely to result in the
adoption of uniform system in both
countries? Such a result is so devoutly
wished for that its attainment would
fully Justify the temporary continue
ton of the rules"

Gossip About the University Foot
ball Teams.

NEW YORK, Oct. 22.-Now that Yale
and Princeton have settled on the Man.
haitian field on which to rush, punt and
break bones, while their good neighbors
are giving thanks, football has slipped
up another notch. The weeding-out
system continues, and the work of the
leading teams is closely observed. Yale
is showing improvement in her
the marvellous quickness of the
tackles as they run with the ball.
The Yale tacklers have been taught to
waste no time from the instant the ball
is sent back by the center rush. They
take the ball from the hands of the
quarter back on the dead run, and, turn
ing sharply, plunge with seeming reck.
lessness into the lines.
Harvard is meeting with success in
her efforts to establish system of team
play. Individually her men are stronger
than Yale's. When they come to play

work, for the Chicago boys will spread

+ Bowling and billiards are claiming
the attention of the amateurs now that
the colder months are approaching. The
weather, however, has been entirely too
warm thus far, with few exceptions,
for real comfort at such hardy and Wig
orous exercise as bowling. But there
is charm about the pastime that induces
tile young men to train despite a little
sweating. Indeed. this sweating, in q
good many instances, is conducive to
the healthy development of the athlete.
Moreover, in certain cases. it is abso-
lutely necessary to the proper fitting
of a contestant that he should pass
through sweating experiences. Hence
,, the weather has been no particular
detriment to the gentlemen who are to
participate in the annual DAILY GLOBE
amateur tournament. The word gem
5Ieman Is used with a special purpose.
these yearlyicontests are participated
in only by gentlemen.

OF the real value of this beautiful
emblem can see the billiard cup on ex-

workmanship. ordered from the leading
manufacturing house of the country
through Myers & Co., the Third street

with CORRECT bowling chafacters. EN-

and there will be one for each member

In addition to these prizes the mer-
chants and business men of st. Paul
have signified their desire to contribute
to the interest of the series by adding
elegant prizes of different kinds. While
there can be no doubt that good many
rich prizes will be donated as suggested,
nothing definite has been arrived at,
and therefore more minute statement
of facts cannot be made at this time.
However, suffice it to say that there will
be prize each for the second and third
club at the finish, and prize for the
biggest individual score, while it is not
at all unlikely that there wilt be others
+-for the second best score, for illustra-
ton, and so on down the scale.

Several clubs have already entered,
but they have entered somewhat ir-
regularly. This is no fault of the clubs,
however. The reason has been that the
conditio MS had not been stated finally
and explicitly. 1t is the purpose of the
GLOBE this morning to make these facts
plain, and it is urged that the bowlers
of the city pander over them.
#

Hames will be recorded by the GLOBE.

This removes one of the disagreeable
, features Of the last tournament, for it
was often found to be a hardship for the
few that were entered in that series.
1t saves a club often from playing a
member who is sick or injured.
1T
The games will be the usual thirty
balls, or the European game. There
was some thought of trying the Amer
lean game of strikes and spares. but the
idea has been abandoned. as has already
been fully explained in the GLOBE.
Every ball must be delivered before the
sdead line" is reached. or it must be
thrown out by the Umpire. All pins
displaced by such foul ball are lost. To
illustrate this point: Should such foul
ball knock down nine pins. the bowler
must bowl for the remaining pin, and
he can play but two additional balls
two balls beside the foul ball, in other
words. The umpire will be selected by
the captains of contending clubs at the
time of the beginning of play for each
game. Should the captains be unable
to decide upon an umpire, which is ex-
ceedingly improbable, the GLOBE rep
resentative present will name the UNI

The bowling clubs have done fine
work the past week. The indications
are that they will start the coming
tournament in much better form than
they were in last winter when the
tournament opened. The old Seven
corners club has reorganized. and new
blood has been injected. This was one
of the clubs that did not participate in

to contest for the GLOBE cup this time.
