WINS FORTUNE ON
SELLING Platter.
Bookie Brownfield Cleans Up
$4,000 on Old Apache,
Jamestown Outlaw.

NEW ORLEANS, LA. January A.
"Red" Brownfield, formerly betting
commissioner for Joe Yeager. but last
season layer with several big books
in the New York fields, made a spec
.tacular plunge on Apache. the winner
of the fifth race at City Park yester-
day. He cleaned up $4,000 on he3vic-
tory Of the consistent little platter
which is being raced by James Elem
ing. The horse was backed from as
high as to I to s to and there
iabouts.
The victory Of the colt made his fifth
consecutive win here, and the $4,000
which Brownfield bet on him Is part
of the winnings the three-year-old had
brought home to him in these starts.
The platter was raced at Norfolk, and
since coming here has run remark
ably we'll, winning five out Of six
starts and finishing third the other
time. He was 40 to l then. and IL to
his first victory. Since he has always
been as good as 3 to 2.
Brownfeld's plunge was the more
spectacular IN that he put away his
slate, did not make book on the race
and himself went out to assist four
! her men bet his money. It was made
lin the face Of tremendous plunge on

FORWARD PASS is

Probable That More Severe

CUT OUT PROFESSIONALS
NY MANHATTAN.

NEW YORK, January 1.-THE most
important event of the week in gen
eral athletics was the second annual
meeting OF the intercollegiate athletic
associations OF the United States in
this city. There was fine representa-
ton from all over the country. and
questions affecting intercollegiate
sports were discussed and in some
cases acted upoii.
One OF the most important actions
taken was undoubtedly the decision
that the forward pass should not be
eliminated from football. That this
play will be modified in some respects
to meet the objections OF some OF the
larger colleges Is altogether probable.
but the play will he retained.
This Is as 1t should be. There are
objections to the play which are legit-
innate. but on the whole 1T adds to
the interest of the game and gives
freer play to brains as against Drawn.
The football rules committee of the
association consists of H. L.. Williams,
Minnesota: j. A. Babbitt. Haverford;
w. L. Dudley. Vanderbilt; E. X. Hall.
Dartmouth; ]. T. Lees. Nebraska; G.
w. Savage, Oberlin. and II, B. Hackett.
West Point. They will meet with the
rules committee of the larger colleges,
and as was the case last year, will
agree on whatever changes may be
necessary.
The question OF summer baseball was
dealt with In a drastic manner. and the
disposition was evident to eliminate
all faint Of professionalism from col-
lege athletics. The resolutions touch
ing on this point were strong, and
wound up with this proposition: That
inasmuch as the whole matter Is far
reaching and vitality affects the ath-
letic interests of other organizations,
we request the cooperation OF the
National Athletic Association OF Sec
ondary Schools, the Playground Assoc
citation OF America. the Amateur Ath-
lettc Union, the League of Young Mems
Christian Associations and other ma
tional bodies Of similar character"
In speaking of the question of the
forward pass, a number of the dele
gates seem to favor change which
would impose a greater penalty for
failure in this play. and it is con-
sidered probable that this action will
be taken. There could be no obiec-
tion to any change Which would con-
fine the forward pass to It's Legitimate
status, Thati 1t was used too reck-
lessly during the past season does not
admit Of argument.

picked up several real bargains. which

Among tho Vanderbilt purchases were
several youngsters which the Franco
American turfman hopes will help him
Ito regain HIS position among the win

Az usual, the foreigners were liberal
buyers Investing more than quarter

The highest prices OF the sale were
paid by buyers from France. Germany
and South America.

JOCKEY Club Too Autocratic.

The British race-horse owners have
formed an association which will pro-
badly be most important factor in
British turf matters in the future.
While there is no intention. at present
at least. OF taking any action antago-
nistic to the Jockey Club. many OF
the owners are OF the opinion that
the power conferred on the turf rulers
is too autocratic in some respects. and
1t is not at'all improbable in time that
there will be important notifications
In turf usages. It may be said that
some notifications could be. made to
the decided imp ovement OF the sport.

Many Horses Left at Post.

One OF the most influential turf Jour

NEGLECT of the Hair.

The greatest trouble with women,
when it comes to identifying" is
that they will not stick to one par
ticular method long enough to see II
it benefits or not, but must try every
method under the sun for two or three
nights each. This is especially so in
regard to the different methods con
corning the care of the hair.
Ones tresses need just as careful
and regular care as do husbands and
babies. Select one method which yeu
think fits your case and then stick
to it.
To disentangle the hair use only
coarse comb and be sure that every
tooth is firm and smooth, so as not to
split and break the hair. Brushing the
hair has been sadly overestimated. A
dozen or two strokes each night is sui
ficient to remove the days's dust anf
dirt and to promote circulation.

Among the prettiest of the sheer
little frocks for children's summer
wear are those of the fine cross bar

yokes of the finest baby Irish crochet

made as puff caught in by a lace
strap cuff above the elbow, or as
circular flare edged with lace and

back, that is inset down the center
of the box plaits.
Children's every day hats this year,
when of straw, are generously wide
brimmed and so shade the eye and the
tender skin that the prevailing style
of Dutch yoke displays at necks. The
straw is of lightest weight and a rib
bon crown band and silk pompons are
the simple trimming.

socks match in color for the party CO.'S

some filmy white null or batiste
deliberately inset with lace and worn
over a white null slip.
