MISCELLANEOUS SPORTS

Shamrock H., which in 1901 came within q
few seconds of capturing the Americas cup for
Sir Thomas Upton, is fast being broken up in
the Erie basin, New York. A gang Of men have
been put to work by Captains Barr and Miller,
who purchased the yacht, and these have
been smashing things generally for several days.
There have been many visitors to the Erie
basin recently, and there has been quite a de-
mand for souvenirs Scraps of bronze, with
which the yacht was plated, have been eagerly
gathered up. Broken rivets, bolts, screws and
pieces Of wood have been taken away to be
treasured by the souvenir hunters.

This feat Is one which has set aside all
other presidents in the way of high
school-collese practice games.
Following are the scores in the four
games that Englewood has played: Chi
cago, 40; Englewood, 0. Illinois, As;
Englewood, 5. Northwestern, SO; Engle-
wood, O. Purdue, 80; Englewood. 0.
Judging from. these scores it. would
seem that Chicago, Illinois, Northwestern
and. Purdue are about on a par at this
stage of the season. Chicago has slight
advantage in scores over Illinois and
Northwestern, but is ony one point higher
than Purdue. Englewood's scoring on
Illinois was regarded largely as the result
of luck, for Searcy, the youngster who
lifted the pigskin over the Illinois goal
has not shown himself to be an adept In
this department of the game
Chicago would have an easy time with
either Illinois, Northwestern or Purdue. J,

Iowa City, Oct 3.-The practice on Iowa
field yesterday saw a number Of new men
tried for positions on the varsity eleven,
and a number Of new candidates promoted
from the third and fourth teams to the
second team.
The quarterback and tackle positions
are particularly unsettled, no entirely
satisfactory men having been found for
them. Magowen and the two Buckleys,
Fred and Roy, are playing the position
we'll, but are too light. Reed, Daven-
port and Fitz were tried at tackle, but, did
not In yesterdays practice show great
aptitude in the position. White is expect
ed to show up well at quarterback as soon
as he RECEIVERS from some slight injuries.
Gibbs. who played at fullback in the first
game, is expected to report for active
work again by the first of next week.
Herbert, who was tried at full back in
the latter half of the Coe game, has been
given this position about half the time in
practice since, and has been doing well
in it. ...---~.ye ...5

The opening Of the football season at
Yale has brought forth from the blues
players whirlwind Of denunciation Of the
new football rules. To say that Yale men
do not like the new rules Is putting it
mildly They believe the new rules are
all a mistake; and are satisfied that the
use Of the rules as they now stand will
mar the game of football and make it
more dangerous than it ever was before.
Both players and coaches dislike the rules.
Up to date not single Yale man has,
appeared who has anything but criticism
to offer in regard to the changes. All
seem to be satisfied that there are bound
to be more injuries than ever before. If

quently fortifying herself for hard foot
ball and is selecting unusually big men for
candidates in the back field. This, in the
open game, will mean hard knocks.
The experts have written, learnedly and
violently, all about the changes in the
Intercollegiate football rules, says the IL
Illustrated Sporting News. If the presi-
dents Of Yale and Harvard and their mus
tered professors had changed their under
graduate courses from four years to two,
and back again, or dropped Greek and
Latin entirely, and = substituted Filipino

as over the partial. abolition of mass

Ann .Arbor. Mich, Oct 3.-The Univer-

This gives Michigan much later, start
than any OF Its large opponents. : From the
two or three seminaries which the team
has had 1t has been impossible to pick

Redden Cleft end, Gregory (center), Hes
ton Cert ha1fback), and Graver, utility
man, who played fullback against Mtnne-
sofa last thanksgiving. Maddox may
also be IN the game if his school work
Is arranged. Laurence has been disquali-
fed on account Of studies and is not on
the field. McGugin is assisting Yost In
developing the line men. Up to- date it Is
impossible to pick a first team from the
large squad OF candidates. It is likely that
twenty or more men, will be tried In Sat-
urday's game. Neither James nor Nor
cross are showing championship form at
quarter The punting honors are being
divided between Dickey and Hammond,
while neither appears good enough, to get
on the team. 1t looks as tho the varsity
VIII sorely miss Sweeley's leg which has
nelped It out or SO many tight places dur
ing the last four years. Most of the prac-
tice up to date has been punting, catch
Ing, passing and falling on the ball, and

GOOD Money.
In spite Of the heavy salary lists paid
by many of the American league clubs,
most of them either made money or broke
even this season, for the year has proved
a great one for baseball in more ways than
one. Interest in the game thruout the

and those clubs that have been unable to
attract the fans of their home towns have
been unusually fortunate in their visits
to other cities Of the league. Boston, Phil

have made all expenses, while Washing
