A MODEL MOTOR BOAT CLUB SOON

Plans we'll under way for the formation OF
model motor boat club. and it is expected that
within fortnight organization Will be perfected
and a new and interesting branch Of the motor

Model motor boating has up TO the present

10 enter this branch of the sport. because while
models can be operated by steam or electricity the

stated that valuable data may be obtained in the

and building of large craft, and II a suitable

there was no doubt that model motor boating would
become popular.
This sport has taken a firm hold in Paris. where

The cost of model motor boat depends a

TIRGINI4fS SEASON OYER.
Southerners Furnished Example of
GentlemanIy Ball Playing.

The University Of Virginia baseball team left FOR
Charlottesville yesterday morning after some
what disastrous Northern trip, which ended the
season for them. The Southerners had this year
undoubtedly of the fastest fielding teams that
ever represented college. Their pitchers SusohS
and Carl Walker, two of the best college pitch
ers now playing ball and have few. if any, su-
periors The trouble with the team was its failure
to bat and this explains the loss of nearly every
game Virginia dropped this season.
Had the Orange and Blue been even reasonably
good the bat. the team would have lost hardly
over two or three games. This is shown by the
fact that Princeton able to score only total
Of five runs In three games, and Georgetown only
seven in a like number of games. For team to
score over four Virginia this year was
exceptional and goes to show how effective the
Virginia pitchers were, backed by excellent fielding
The failure of the team to win on its Northern
trip is also probably due to large extent to the
fact that three of it's veteran players and best
batters were unable make the trip and their
substitutes were not of equal calibre.
But the Southernels hav5 a right to feel proud
of their team not only because of the excellent
ball 1t played, but even because of the
clean sportsmanlike pail il played throughout the
season whether winning losing. Captain TIof
and his men are to be congratulated on the cour
teous treatment they gave visiting mines and the
example of gentlemany paU playing they have

Lucien Rerolle the French expert, will lower

N Some rule should be framed by the stewards
Esof the Jockey Club TO protect the horses in a
field from the wild plunging and swirling Of
some confirmed bad actor which no amount OF
schooling seems TO improve. The need for such
rule was emphasized last Monday when Frank
Lord. by his crazy behavior at the barrior and
q sudden bolt 10 the outside as the starter gave
the word. interfered with three four other
horses and ruined any possible chance they had
of winning. Frank Lord is notOriously bad
actor, but there are Others, including Halifax,
Diamond and Chapultepec, which are menace
10 the other horses constant source of irrta-
ton TO racegoers and a nightmare 10 the starter.
Bad actors which cannot be cured by schooling
should pay the penalty and either be placed on
the outside Of the field or else two or three
lengths back. where they could do the least
harm. II is not unusual to see some bad actor,
after delaying the start four or five minutes and
getting his opponents nervous and fretful, break
away in front, as the starter is forced Of neces-
sity TO give him far more attention than he de-
serves II would be better if the horses Of this
kind were not permitted TO go 10 the post at all,
