San Francisco, Oct. 26.-The date has
been set for the first race of the indoor
bicycle meet to be inaugurated at the
Pavilion rink this winter. The new
regulation banked track, according to
Frank X Elwell, under whose super
vision it is being built, will be ready

time for preparations, the initial night
of speeding will take place on Tuesday,
Nov 5.-On Fridays and Tuesdays of

ElWell, himself veteran wheelman,

cycle track, also the VelodrOme and
the one that was at Central park. He
prepared the plans for the track at
Madison Square Garden, New York, on
which the siX-day races have been

the Pavilion track will be as fast as
any in the country.

MAY ABOLISH TRY FOR GOAL
One Member of Rules Committee Be-
heves Point Is Not
Earned.

philadelphia. Oct. 26.-There is
strong possibility that next season may
see an important change of football
scoring methods. The practice of max
ing a goal from the field equal i'm value
10 a touchdown was changed some sea
sons ago. and at least one influential
and important member Of the football
rules committee is in favor Of abolish
ing the extra point allowed when
goal is kicked from placement after a
touchdown. This man, who was
member of the old rules committee be
fore the reformation of the game In
1906 thinks that the difficulty of kick
ing this goal is not by any means one
fifth as great as that of scoring a
touchdown, and that there is no real
reason for continuing TO award a point
for such goals. 1t is thought by a good
many persons that there is so little dill
ficulty in kicking this goal that many
games are simply delayed by the time
taken to punt out and make the kick
of course, many goals are missed. but
il is not often that a critical game Is
decided by the scoring or failure In
scoring a single point. Probably the
last case of the kind was in the Penn
sylvania- Cornell game in 1908, when the
score was II to IL, and there is good
deal of reasonable argument permissi-
bic as to whether a game should hinge
on such a point. 1t is often the case.
when a goal is missed, that sudden
puff of wind had more to do with the
direction of the kick than the players
foot, and luck may well, in such a
case. decide an important contest.

PRINCETON LOOKS
LIKE or CHAMPS
On Form Shown So Far This
Season Tigers Are StrOn-
geSt in the Bunch.
BY MANHATTAN.

There is one noticeable feature about
the football season up to this time. 1t
is the splendid condition of prepared
ness shown by all the big teams, and
the little ones, too, for that matter. In
the games this week the men of the
big Five have played as smart
game of football as could have been
looked for at the closing games.
On the dope so far the teams size up
about in this wise: Princeton, Yale,
Harvard. Pennsylvania and Cornell.
Big scores have been the rule in the
games played so far. The improvement
in open play so much demanded a lit
tie more than year ago has been
marked In the Pennsylvania-Swa
more contest One-half of the score was
made by goals from the field alone, and
touchdowns resulting from forward
passes and Onside kicks We're also fire.
Quent,
Taking the season to date, the Tigers
appear To be travelling at a faster gait
than any other member of the Big
Five. In three games the showing
against Bucknell, in which Princeton
scored nine touchdowns and kicked
seven SodiSi NHeh colllpdIeu Win lne
work of the Quakers against the same
combination, speaks for itself.
Even allowing for a falling off in
form of the Bucknen combination fol-
lowing the hard struggle with the
Quakers. the overwhelming defeat ad-
ministered by the Tigers TO practically
the same team on Saturday is a rea-
sonable indication of the Princeton
eleven's ability at this time. Despite
the gloomy bulletins that have been
sent forth from the Tigers lair, it is
evident that the 1907 team, if it does
not suffer from Over-confidence or a
slump in playing form later in the sea-
son. will be one that will be big
factor in the deciding of the eastern
championship.

IDAHO'S PITCHER
IS SEASON STAR
Proved Most Effective Slab
Man in the American
League This Year.

Young Johnson, the kid pitcher dis
covered by Joe Cantillon, was the most
effective slabman in the American
league this season, so far as stop
ping the runners was concerned. The
boy allowed only 80 runs in IA games,
or 2.36 tallies per trip, and only 80
hits-less than seven to the game
were made off his delivery.
Of the all-season pitchers, DR.. White
was the most brilliant, with 2.57 runs
per game. Plank and Killian are close
up-a fine showing for the crack left
handlers The great Waddell does not
show anything like his 1906 form, as
$40 runs per game were made off him,
and 247 hits in 80 battles.
The widest pitcer seems to have
been Billy Hogg, who had All bases
on balls per game, and the steadiest
was White, who gave only LOS per
struggle As usual, Waddell had ey-
erybody beaten a block in strikeouts,
with 7.06 per game.
Waddell was taken off the slab often
er than any other pitcher, IS Danish
ments in all. Pruitt of Boston was
the greatest rescuer of the league, go
ing in Is times when other pitchers
were getting theirs.
Plank led the league in pitching
feats-16 star performances. with six
shut-outs. among them. White. with
seven blanks, led the league in the
whitewash line.
