Hard Luck at Columbia

Hard LUCK at Columbia
Hard luck stories pile up at Colum-
bia and predominant in reports of the
progress mode by the football eleven.
The team is sadly crippled by the loss
of four of it's strongest players and the
coaches are bewailing the fates which
seem Inevitable for the team this sea-
son.
Sysonby's Great Record
Sysonby has made a record that is
eclipsed by but one horse, Domino,
and strange to relate, both belonged to
James r. Keene. In two years Syson-
by has won $1S4S53 and before the sea-
son ends it is expected that the sum
| total will overreach Domino's un-
touched record of $196,5SO. Sysonby
leads all horses in winnings and per-
formances this year. He has run in
nine races winning eight and securing
dead heat in the ninth. He has been
defeated but once, in the futurity,
which, had he won, would have placed
him 900 beyond Domino's high water
mark. Dominos winnings required
three years.
Corbett's Defeat
Young Corbett surprised the sporting
community" by losing to Young Erne
Wednesday night at Philadelphia. Cor
bett has been talking so much of gain
ing his lost prestige by fighting his
way back up the hill that 1t was taken
for granted that he would dispose of
Young Erne. This defeat, on top of
McGovern's quick and definite triumph
over Murphy few days back seem
to put Young Corbett out of the rum
ming and booms Terry in a correspond
ing degree.
Women Are Barred
Women are barred from the cheer
| ing stands at the Harvard game
this year. No explanation is given of
this unusual action, but it is supposed
that the authorities have become able
to determine the counterfeit of shrek
when emitted for a college yell and
have found it impossible to reconcile
the two
The Lightweight JaWsmiths
Fight fans were of the opinion that
the mill between Britt and Nelson was
to be a prizefight, but recent develop
ments encourage the belief that instead
it was an electric bout to charge the
wind batteries of the two little fellows
and all their managers, brothers and
other relatives and friends, not to men
tion the press. From the alarming
overflow of talk that has resulted since
the fight and which has grown out of
the fight, including the question of
who had the best of the argument un-
til the knock out, the legislative scan
dal and the intense rate at which Bill
ly Nolan and Willie Britt's mouths
have been running is convincing argu-
ments to prove that the fight was mere
ly an incident of the day. The fight
public is disgusted What must be the
effect upon the general public?
oBrien-Kauffman Tonight
Tonight the agony will be over-the
fight fans agony-as Billy Delaney's
kid wonder, AL Kaufman, meets Phil
adelphia Jack O'Brien. AL is the choice
in the betting and considerable money
is wagered on the result. O'Brien, ac-
credited with being one of the craftiest
of match makers as well as fighters. is
said to rely upon AIS lack of exper-
ience solely, but the general impression
is that AL will overcome this before
the battle is ended and will have the
experience, the decision and the long
end of the purse. The winner will
probably be matched against Hart
stanford's Coming
The Stanford football eleven is ex-
pected on the Owl today and will line
up against the Sherman braves at FL
esta park tomorrow. This game will
be the second big event in Southern
California football circles and the en-
thusiasts will have final opportunity
of getting line on all the competitors
for the championship. Stanford is
coming not in the expectation of de-
feating the Indians by as big score
as did Berkeley and it is no foregone
conclusion that Stanford will be able
ic
that the Cardinals have an advantage
and will be returned victorious in the
contest.
Baseball Attendance
The almost unbroken winning streak
of the Angels has awakened some of
the dormant fans and the attendance
is increasing, but Manager Morley is
not content yet. He believes that the
clip at which his pets are travelling
and the seeming certainty of winning
the flag for Los Angeles entities his
aggregation to more enthusiastic sup
podt. He's right
