FUTURE LOOKS
BAD FOR ASCOT
ANNEXATION ELECTION SEEMS
0MlN0US
Col. Brooks Confident Coming Season
Will Be Carried on as Usual.
Baldwin Association Not
Antagonlstlc

just where Ascot stands in the racing
world at the present time is something
of a conundyum. though judging from
the annexation election there is a very
fine chance OF the local course passing
among the things that were before
many months have elapsed.
Col Brooks had little to say regarding
the election outcome more than that he
was certain of Ascot remaining on the
map during the coming season. What
would eventually be done Mr.. Brooks
did not intimate. He said:
II am certain that racing will be con-
tinued at Ascot as scheduled for the
coming season, though after that cam
not say what will be done. 1t will be
some time before the election result
can affect us. as there will be consider
able red tape to be unraveled."
intimations have been made that the
Los Angeles Jockey club might institute
suit should they be forced to leave
their holdings in the southeast district,
though it is difficult to see where they
would stand much opportunity of COM
ing out on the long end.
According to the annexation election
Ascot is now a portion of Los Angeles
or will be so soon as official require
ments have been complied with.
With Ascot as a part of the city
proper turf gambling would necessarily
come under the ban, and racingwithout
pool selling could not exist under such
conditions, at least as the Ascot park
park is run.
Vice President Woolacott of the Bald
win Racing association said yesterday
that he did not believe Ascot's Thanks
giving day opening Would be interfered
with and that racing might continue
there for months.
I'VE are not taking an undue salts
faction in the annexation election, as
the Baldwin association had not in
tended any turf war with Ascot If such
a thing could be avoided Had it been
possible we would have agreed to split
dates so that as little conflict as posy
sible would have resulted"

OF SHOE BARGAINS

Mr.. Olcovich, one of the proprietors of
the Mammoth shoe house, has just re-
turned from Boston, Mass. where he
made the largest purchase of shoes ever
made for any shoe house in this city.
In one week he bought over $50,0o0
worth of goods The immense shipment
is now arriving in car lots, and the
force of men at the big store is busy
marking the goods for great sale,
which will probably be inaugurated in
about a week.
Mr.. Olcovich stated .that he secured
the entire lot of shoes at a sacrifice

partly staggered Webster on several

was doing all the aggressive work and
earned his decision.
A draw was sufficient for the ten

was not bad at the in-fighting, while
Browne scored best at longer range.

the men to wrestle until the gong,

All of the varsity elevens have been
worrying off and on all the season
because of the ends. The men as a
rule haven't suited the coaches. There
has been too little speed and too much
inaccuracy in following the the ball
to please the teachers of the teams.

splendid possibilities. He is Alcott

Pennsylvania has two fair ends.
They wwork we'll as a team, but they
are not as fast as some ends which
have played for Pennsylvania in the
past. Princeton is none too strong at
the ends and Harvard has put nothing
in the field which indicates phenome-
nal ability. Cornell has one good end
and one which is average.
This being the case and because of
the fact that the end play has become
SO much more important, it is certain
that next season will find much ser
rying on the part of the coaches to
get some valuable end material in the
field. Any player who shows indication
of playing end with intelligence will
have little trouble to make his varsity
eleven.
