AMATEUR ATHLETIC MEET

New York, Nov. 1.-The National Horse show and a dog show at Madi- son Square Garden, New York, the big football game of the season, Harvard vs. Yale at Cambridge, the A. A. U. oss-country championship on Long Island, and the annual meeting of the National Board of the Amateur Ath- letie union, are the events of sporting interest programmed for this week,
 The twenty-third exhibition of the National Horse Show association will open at Madison Square Garden on Monday evening. Apart from the social side of this event, which has come to be regarded as a most important ele- ment of it's success, the exhibition all ways attracts the very best of the American thoroughbreds. The prizes amount to $S7O0O this year and there are 1,500 horses enumerated in the en- try lists-a slight falling in the num- Der shown last year. The most GOV eted prize will be the Forest King cup formerly the Waldorf-Astoria cup, and renamed in honor of w. H. Moore's T OIGSI GAlISs WHICH WOl u lOk liiO blltl U successive time last year. and thus be- came the possessor This prize is for cobs shown to gig and driven by own CTS Among the entries In this class are Lord Baltimore, Ringing Bells, Hill | dred, Scotlands' Queen and Lord Bur- leigh. This year the women will take | a more active part in the program thar ever before, both in the saddle and harness events, and quite a number of hunters and jumpers will be shown.
 During the last two days of the ex- hibition of horses the annual toy dog show will be held in the concert hal of the garden. Entries have been re- ceived from all over the country, but particularly from the eastern states and from Canada, England and France Three hundred dogs will be benched
 Particularly interesting will be the ex- hibit by Mrs. Herbert L. Satterlee of a number of Chinese sleeve dogs and the Boston exhibit of Pekinese owned by Mrs. E. W. Clark of that city.
 The annual meeting of the Amateur Athletic union, which begins Monday l in New York IS important 10 all atn- letes. Delegates from almost every state in the Union have arrived and those from the middle Atlantic, south Atlantic and Southern association will have reached the city by Monday
 Probably the most interesting subjects with which the delegates will deal con cerns the status of the college athlete in athletics outside of his own school. The Metropolitan association last year passed a resolution barring college ath- letes from competing while still in col lege except in the colors of and for their respective colleges. The proposi- l ton to amend the constitution is ex- pected to stir up warm fight, for its acceptance would bar colegians from the various athletic clubs until after they have left the college ranks.
 A determined effort will be made dur | ing the session by the Internationa | Skating Union of America, which is a reorganization of several of the old skating associations, to take It's af- fairs from the hands of the A. IA. U. which took them over some time ago, and reassune control itself
