pont Handicap

The fall meeting of the Metropolitan
Jockey Club opened at the popular Jamaica

auspices. Probably 1900 persons were on
hand when the first race was run at
o'clock. over fast track and under Indian
summer weather conditions.
The stake feature was the Pierrepont
handicap for all ages. one mile and fur

Harvard's Team Strengthened.

The Harvard eleven was strengthened
yesterday when Dan Knowlton, all-Amer-
lean tackle in 1908. Joined the squad and
played fullback. He is thoroughly con-
Versant In the art of line plunging, and
the coaches expect he viii prove valu-
able addition to the Varsity eleven. He
did not get into the scrimmage but spent
his time running through signals with the
Varsity team. Paul, tackle on last years
second eleven. who has been playing guard
so Tar this season. was tried at fuliback
ON the scrub. Considerable attention was
paid TO the drastic testing of candidates in
small details. Coach DAILY had his men
tackifng runners in the open field. He ran
himself with the ball, and sometimes had
a man to interfere for him. Coach Reid
on the other hand. put the back field candi-
dates through a rigid test to compare the
men In every detail of play, and then to re-
duce the squad at some near future date
In the serimmage between the Varsity and
the scrub the former scored once. Wendell
made the touchdown on S5-yard run On
the play before this the same runner re-
turned the BAH forty-fiye yards on the kick
off, but was tackled by Whitman from be-
hind.

be as hard, IL not harder, for the winning

naming games are with Pennsylvania
State, West Point, Columbia. Brown,
Princeton and Harvard in the order given.
while Princeton meets Lafayette, Columbia,
Dartmouth, Cornell and Yale in turn.
Pennsylvania has this problem to wrestle
with: Brown, Carlisle, Lafayette, Harvard,

lowing list of games shows what a tough
schedule is confronting Columbia: Amherst,
Princeton Yale, Cornell, Pennsylvania.

her hands full with Harvard. Yale, Yer

it's schedule the hardest. Brown Is playing
keen foot ball this season. and 1t looks as If
the Saturday between Yale's Columbia ana
Princeton games would not permit of any
let-up in speed, since the lively Brunonians
have to be faced that day. By the some
token. Brown, Carlisle, Pennsylvania, Dart

unless there is brace, will not be diff
cult as her strength for the last two sea-
sons indicated at the beginning of the cam
paign. Lafayette is another team with
which no liberties be taken, and the
Eastonans start Princeton on the hard part
of her scehudule next Saturday. With Am

Vermont and Trinity games, it will not be
question with the soldiers of the size of

MANAGER McGRAW
TO BE REWARDED

John ]. McGraw may become a real base
ball magnate In a short time. 1t is said
that after the next annual meeting of the
New York Base Ball Club McGraw will
have financial interest in the club in addi-
tom to an increased salary as manager
This arrangement has been agreed upon in
appreciation of McGraw's services to the
team In leading them successfully through
two championship series and then bringing
to this city the highest honor that any
team can win In base ball, the championship
of all the leagues of the country.
Those who know McGraw best know how
great was his desire to win the world $
championship and what blow 1T would
have been to him IL the Giants had lost
The same thing can be said of all the play
ers on the team. This alone should have
been enough to stop the talk that was
prevalent to the effect that the series be-
tween the teams was fixed in advance on
a money-making basis.
John T. Brush and Andrew Freedman are
great admirers of McGraw personally. and
as base ball man. While McGraw's salary
has been large, at least $40, 600 per annum,
the principal stockholders Of the club think
he Is entitled to higher recognition.

Weather Kept Tigers Back.

tice of the Tigers squad yesterday, and
only light work was required of it, Par

as the coaches are dissatisfied with Nc

Otis Fryer Tenny and Tooker each had
trial at booting the leather on the kick

depended upon to kick off in future games.

Foot Ball Notes.

The victory of the team OF the Maryland
Agricultural College over Gallaudet Col

coaching. 1t was not believed that the
Aggies would defeat the boys from Ken

Nelson, formerly of the University OF Me-
braska, Is doing his work we'll.

NOT on par with the team of Georgetowr
University II one Is to Judge from the score
which the Tigers ran up on each team.
There is good deal of difference in foot
ball between 4S and "a points
The wise ones are SIN talking about that
score of 10 TO which Virginia Polytechnic
ran up on West Point. Seems as though the
West Pointers were taken entirely by sur
prise when the Virginians put up their rush.

Athletics Treated Handsomely.

The members of the Philadelphia Ameri-
can League team were handsomely reward
ed by the officials of the club for their fine
work during the season just closed
In addition to their share of the receipts
in the worlds series allotted to them by
the national commission. President Shibe,
Manager Mack and the other directors of
the club decided to also give the players
the clubs share of the first four games
This amounted to 49, 131.49, or about $3.50
to each of the eighteen men who were elgi-
BILE to play against the New York Ma
tionals. The generosity of the officials
came as surprise to the American League
champions and helped to Offset their dis
appointment in not getting the larger share
OF the receipts in the worlds series Their
regret over not defeating the Giants how
ever, is yet too great to be estimated in
coin OF the realm. This action of the club
was decided upon long time ago. but it
was kept a secret by the officials, and the
players were totally unprepared for the
small fortune awaiting them when they
were met by President Shbe Manager
Mack and the other officials.
