FOOT BALL CRACKS
ARE WARMING UP
Special Dispatch to The Star.


NEW HAVEN, Conn, September l.
Foot ball Is already treading on the heels
Of base ball, and soon the supremacy Of
the pigskin will be acknowledged by the
horsehide. The college coach is busy with
the graduate team advisers, and soon will
take off his coat and get down to business.
Aspiring candidates for places on the va
rious university elevens are taking a home
course in preliminary training and will
shortly pack up their arnica, splints and
uniforms and hit the trail for the college
campus.
At Yale Head Field Coach Foster Rock
well has been comforting with Walter
Camp. the Ellis general athletic adviser
and it has been decided to call the candi-
dates together about September 15, and a
sharp ten-day drill is then expected on the
new rules before college opens. The Yale
policy was pretty well figured out in three
team-passing game much like the play SO
frequent in basket ball, Is generally ex-
pected. AS Head Coach Rockwell has
played basket ball for three years and
man for the hour in working out new
plays from the foot ball rules. Much
kicking will be done by the Yale backs
this fall: Every member of the back field
has been taught to punt, and instead Of
holding the ball, the backs will kick fire.
Quently.
It is a settled conviction among the
Yale coaches that injuries among the
players will be fully as frequent as under
the old rules. -Collarbone fractures and
broken wrists and arms are looked for
frequently under the new code, which de-
velops much running in a broken field.
Under the new Yale eligibility rules,
which bar freshmen, no new players can
make the team the coming fall. The vet
Grams who will be eligible are:
End, Howard Jones; tackles, Lucius
Biglow and Robert Forbes: guard. Arthur
Erwin; quarterback, Tad Jones; halfbacks,
Howard Roome, William Knox and John
Levine Friends Of Forbes deny the rumor
that he is not to return to Yale. Jim Fos-
ter the Yale grand stand builder, has been
here for two weeks overhaultng the Yale
grand stands and strengthening them for
the coming season.

Hockey League Prospects Don't Look
Very Good.
Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. September There is an
aggravating chance that the National
Amateur Hockey League, made up of New
York and Brooklyn teams, may not appear
on the ice this coming season. and there
fore there is much dependency in the
ranks Of the enthusiasts of the game Ben
jamin Kelley, manager Of the Crescent A.
c. hockey team, says that up to date there
has been no meeting Of the league officers
and that possibly there will be no league
season, although Of course, the Individual
teams will have games through the winter.
One thing that Mr.. Kelley thinks may
influence the disbanding of the league is
the fact that the Clermont skating rink
in Brooklyn will not be open for ice
skating this year. Big placards on the
rink announce that the rollers may roll
therein all winter and this will effectual-
ly prevent any big games of ice hockey
being scheduled in that section of the great
er city. j. G. Moshier, former manager of
the Clermont rink, has. heard nothing of
positive in stating that the roof will shelter
no Ice. There may be a few games OF
hockey on roller skates, but for those to
whose ears the ring of the skates Is one
of the best points of the real game the
roar of the roller skates will have no
charm.
The National Amateur Hockey League
has been in existence for some years, and
its seasons have always been very popular

o'BR1EN AND HAcKENscHm1Dr
To Fight in London Club This
Fall.

Special Dispatch to The Star
NEW YORK. September with the idea
of picking up easy money philadelphia
Jack" O'Brien has inveigled George Hack
enschmidt, the noted wrestler, into the be-
lief that the Russian Lion is q boxer and
made a match to fight him. Broadway
prize ring experts last night expressed the
opinion that the Quaker is certainly a WON
der as a match maker, and his latest effort
is the crowning triumph of a series of
masterpieces in the same direction.
O'Brien and Hackenschmidt are to battle
under Marquis of Queensberry rules in a
London club for purse during October or
marked. win provide O'Brien with funds to
make many costly Christmas presents
When Hackenschmidt was in this country
efforts were made otnduce him to appear
in boxing bout. but~he refused. Since that
time the Russian has been taking boxing
lessons in England. and according to a
letter written a friend in this city he
(Hackenschmidt) states he has become
quite proficient with the gloves. 1t Is quite
evident that O'Brien has encouraged that
belief with the idea of enhancing his bank
account.
Hackenschmidt, who is an extraordinarily
powerfully built man, very likely believes
that his great strength will give him a
chance against O'Brien. But philadelphia
jack is a long way from being weakling
and aside from that is remarkable ring
general.
That O'Brien has lost none of his clever
ness as prize fighter since his departure
from this country is conclusively proven
by his recent victory over lied" Beacham
in London. O'Brien put his English oppo-
nent to sleep in two rounds. The men were
showing against Beacham was revelation
to the Britishers..

Horses that very much in the public
eve at present are the bay mare Angola
and the bay gelding My Star. Horsemen
who have followed the grand circuit from
Cleveland to Readville hold to the belief
that Angola is the only trotter now before
the public that can give Sweet Marie, 2OiA,
a race. 1t is quite possible that the speed of
the two mares is nearly. II not quite, equal.
But Sweet Marie possesses an important
quality in a race mare-steadiness; while
Angola is given to wild breaks in getting
off at the word. and especially when un-
duly pressed in hot finishes. The horse
that enters into a contest with the grand
daughter of Mckinney and Mabel. and
hopes to be first at the wire, must be as
steady as the proverbial clock.

MONTREAL HAS
FINE RACE TRACK
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
SARATOGA, N. Y, September L.
Charles w. Leavitt, jr., builder of the
Saratoga track, also of the course at Bel
mont Park, has arrived from Canada. Mr..
Leavitt has been building tracks at Mon
treal and at Winnipeg. He says the Mon
treal track will be finished in SO far as his
work is concerned in few weeks. The
Montreal track is mile and a furlong
around, with three-quarter straightaway
and fine steeplechase course, and Mr..
Leavitt says 1t will be better for racing
purposes than the one here. 1t is an i'm
provement on the Saratoga track because
it drains to both sides instead of merely
to the inside. as does this one.
Mr.. Leavitt anticipates great popularity
for racing at Montreal. He finds the Cam
adams are mostly sportsmen, and they are
taking the keenest interest in the venture
at Montreal. Montreal will have the fin
est race course in the dominion when the
Leavitt track Is finished, and the sport
there In spring and fall will. Mr.. Leavitt
believes equal that of any track on the
continent outside of New York.
