Lou DILLON EQUALS 8
 THE WORLDS RECORD

Memphis, Nov 9.-Poorly paced, short of work and, over a track hard as ffnt Lou Dillon yesterday trotted mile without a pace-maker in front in 2:O1A, equalling the worlds record made over the Memphis track on Oc- tober A by Major Delmar. Every thing considered, it was one of the greatest miles ever trotted. The sup plemental meeting of the Memphis Trotting association, which was scheduled for November 3, 4, and ', was postponed until yesterday on account of the bad condition of the track, which resulted from teh hard rains of last week. But the meeting which was started yesterday was reg ular in every detail, and Murray Howe, secretary of the local asocia- tion, has left no stone unturned to make it certain that any record made vii stand.
 When the mare came on the track she was worked once the reverse way of the track and then sent away at the first score. She was turned only fifty yards from the wire and given short start, as Willard Sanders. who drove the mare, vel knew that she was short and would not be able tO SO tue WuOle Q1SLdHCG aG her pest clip. She went away slowly, but gained terrific headway before she raeched the first turn and reeled off the first quarter in O:29A. Still in- creasing her speed, she went on to the half and passed that mark in 0:5914 Going up the back stretch and round ing the far turn the mare had to face the wind, and although runner pick ed her up at the half she was only able to reach the quarters pole in 1:29A. From this point on Willard Sanders was forced to drive hard to keep the mare going. As her trainer had predicted before the trial, she was able to last to the seven-eighths pole and no further But, under the whip, she fought her way down the stretch and finished the mile, all in, in 2:01A.
 The mare will be sent again on Fri day. In speaking of the coming trial Sanders said: If the weather is good and the track fast. I will send the mare close around 2 minutes or never drive another trotter as long as live.''

srt of all kinds of fiukes. Days are short at this time of year.. and the av- craze football enthusiast could attend game which began at l o'clock as well as an hour or two later.
 Different Football Methods.
 The overthrow of Yale by West Point and the humiliation of Prince ton at the hands of the middies have given rise to much speculation among the followers of football.
 In the west such happenings at this stage of the season w&uld mean woe full weakness on the part of the big teams. Nothing serves better than this to emphasize the difference between the theories on which eastern and western eleyens are coached.
 The former have at most only two "big" games to prepare for, while in the west series of four or even six championship contests is often played by the large teams. Tn the east, there- fore, the full strength of the college team natures more slowly than would be possible for teams occupying cor responding positions in the west if the latter wished to maintain their pres tige.
 The smaller teams, on the other hand, are worked to high degree of perfection early in the season, and the Yale and Princeton catastrophes are examples of the results. It all goes to show that if the old system is ad- hered to the ''big four will soon be a myth in eastern football.
 Look Out For the Minors"
 A team which schedules games with other elevens nearly it's own equal in weight and strength and often its su- perior in the matter of coaching can not expect to make clear record for the season unless more attention is given to the so called minor con- tests.
 When practice games result in the defeat of the team which is being "practiced' they are more than mere preparatory contests.
 7ftA victory in the most important game, while it may vindicate the strength of the large team, cannot re- move the black eye a defeat at the hands of a smaller team gives it.
 Either the smaller elevens must be regarded with more respect by coaches of the larger teams or the famous sbig four must pass away.
