HARVARD TOHAVE
A STRONG ELEVEN
GOOD MATERIAL AVAILABLE
FOR MILITARY SCHOOL
Football Campaign Will Find the
Western Avenue Institution with
Live Bunch of Pigskin
Booters
BY RED PERKINS

Although the probable strength of
it's team is unknown at this time Har-
ward Military school out on Western
avenue is planning for another hard
campaign on the gridiron next season.
There is no reason for those in charge
to believe that the team will be strong
er than the one which made so cred
liable a record against heavier clubs
last year, although this will. not be
known as a fact until school opens,
about the second week in September.
Among the players lost through grad
uation are Otis, Finney, Lane, Me-
serve and Brown, the latter being last
years fullback and captain.
Saved from last years team for the
lineup this season, however, are a
number Of classy performers. Among
them are Thorpe, quarter; DavidS,
halfback and captain; Proctor and
Brown, ends; Rindge, guard, and
Heath, tackle. There promises to be
an abundance of new material on hand
when college opens to fill the places
made vacant by those who have left
school and no doubt fast team will
be developed through the efforts of
Coach Frank Boren, who is classed as
one of the best American game players
who ever fumbled the pigskin when
in his teens. Boren is a graduate OF
Stanford university.
Last season Harvard turned out
football eleven that was one of the
fastest in the south and held down
the crack Belmont school of the north
to one touchdown. In this game the
northern boys, who were coached by
Bill Reid, outweighed the Harvards
fifteen pounds to the man and had the
advantage of playing on their own
grounds.
AS in the past, Harvard Military
school win play only with prep
schools, Kinter Hamilton, who has
general charge of athletics, holding
that there is nothing to be gained in
sending boys in to compete with men
on the gridiron. while there is an ele-
ment of danger that is likely to affect
the standing of the game. All of the
high schools in the city division of the
county league, with the exception of
the Polytechnic high school, will stick
to the intercollegiate game, but among
the smaller schools of the suburban
section there is said to be leaning
toward Rugby

baseball, challenged the Press Boys on
behalf of the Fats. Henry may be
indiscreet, but he is game, so when
few of the Fats in his lineup, being
less game than Hen, refused to go up
against the inevitable, Hen promptly
dropped them from the lineup and says
he will have a stronger team than
ever. Unquestionably there are a few
Fats in the lineup offered originally
by Berry who cannot begin to play
bail, and while the original Fats team
looked like a case of easy money for
the Press Boys, the latter will not be
mean about it and will permit Berry
to make substitutions in order that he
may present lineup that will enable
him to hope for the best, even though
that hope is based on nothing. The
game is to be played at Chutes park
one week from today Babe Whaling,
the husky policeman who wrestles with
plain drunks and noisy individuals
around East First street from midnight
permitted to line up with Berry's out
fit. Babe weighed only 2S1 pounds
yesterday, so he comes within the I90-
pound requirement The Press Boys
team is stronger than ever, by the
addition of Salisbury and one or two
other crack players, including Freddie
Pabst, and our lineup will be changed

Hen Berry says he will forego the
pleasure of his monthly vacation in
the north until the Angels return to
San Francisco from Portland. This
means that he will be a familiar sight

that date to attend the Coast league

this way the trouble is usually due to
leakage past the valves on account OF
the small amount of clearance between
push rods. When the stems and values
are cold the latter seat properly, but
when the former are heated, and of
course expanded, the valves are pre-
vented from seating by the stems rest
ing on the tappets.
When about to initiate a tire always
give few strokes of the pump before
attaching it to the valve, in order to
blow out any grit.
Should carburetter catch fire
through a back shot, the fire may oc-
caSionally be extinguished by turning
off the gasoline and racing the engine.
The Hartford Rubber Works COM
pany, Hartford, Conn, has introduced
little device to prevent rafting of the
hood or bonnet of motor car. To
prevent rattling, not a few makers
have used the strap across the center
of the hood, securing it as tightly as
possible to the frame of the car at
either side. The Hartford anti-rattler
consists of strip of flexible rubber 1
foot long, 2 inches wide, IA inch thick
and slotted at the end. When placed
over the center of the hood the ends
of the leather straps are drawn through
the openings in the rubber strap at
either end, and then buckled down
firmly on the side of the hood.

, for the final play for the pennant,
which begins at the Chutes the after
noon Of September 29.
Dispatches last night from San Fran
cisco announce that Freddie Welsh, the
great little lightweight champion of
England, has been matched to box
twenty rounds with Eddie Hanlon in
the northern city September 80, the con-
ditions requiring that they weigh in at
1873 pounds at o'clock the day of the
fight. This is duck soup for Freddie.
What he will not do in jabbing, hook
ing, crossing and shifting when he
stacks up against the original crouch
ing kid need not be mentioned in the
story of the fight. Hanlon once was a
fair fighter, but never a champion.
Welsh is nearly as clever and speedy as
Abe Attell, and Abe had a fine time
with Eddie. "Cute" is a popular boy,
because he always fights on the square
and because he never in all his life ex-
hibited anything that would justify
any suspicion that he is not game, but
he has been out of the ring too long to
come back and whip boys as classy as
Welsh. This match has been hanging
fire for long time, but was closed yes
terday.
1t is the source of much qualification
to his friends in Los Angeles that Andy
Briswalter won his first game in the
north for the Angels. He pitched in
major league form yesterday, and his
conduct through this long and strenu-
GUS contest fully justified every predic-
ton made for him when Berry signed
him. Willis, Jones and Sutor took
turns at trying to beat the youngster,
but he gave less number of hits than
the trio, and after being a bit unsteady
in the opening inning, he settled down
and allowed only six hits in the final
thirteen innings. His work was so
good that the northern correspondents
featured it in their telegraphis reports.
BY his excellent pitching the Angels
made the series with the Seals thus far
stand three to two games in favor of
the champions. Another argument In
favor of young blood, and if Hen Berry
is not careful he will be getting offers
from the big league managers for his
latest find.

MOTOR SPARKS

D. M. Lee drove down to San Diego
last week in a model G Cadillac and
placed an agency with the Southern
Electrical company. Lee found condi-
tions good in the southern city and ex-
poets a good season there. The new
agency placed an order for fifteen Ca
dillac thirties.
The Electrical Construction company
has received a shipment of new Fritchle
electrics. The cars are elegantly fin
ished, and in addition to number of
dark bodies there is one in French gray.
Few people know that Leon T. Shett-
Ter is one of the best amateur photo
graphers in the country. His speciality
is fast moving objects. Among the men
who dabble in photography for the
pleasure Mr.. Shelter is as well known
as he is among the motorists.
The 1909 Stoddard Dayton, forty-five
horsepower touring car, was one of the
arrivals of the past week to cause a
stir in the local motoring world. The
new car is finished in cream with black
trimming and has been sold to E. A.
Featherstone. The new Stoddard road
ster also arrived. The Stoddard of
1907 was one of the handsomest de-
signed cars on the market, but the new
machine is even better. 1t has a longer
wheel base and looks extremely racy
as well as stylish. This makes three
of the new models to reach here. The
first was the new $4,000 touring car.
The only remaining Stoddard yet to
come is the recently announced $1575
machine, which will leave the factory
soon.
Dean Laughlin has placed an order
for six-cylinder semi-racer Kissel-
kar. The car is to be equipped with
two bucket seats and a large gasoline
tank on the rear. 1t will be finished in
French gray and will have Kilgore
shock absorbers and Goodyear tires.
Leon T. Shelter will have q duplicate
of this machine for his personal use.
Interesting figures compiled by Chas.
@. Clifton of the Pierce company of
Buffalo show the great progress made
by the automobile industry since 1902,
when it first took form in the United
States. Twenty-one concerns now in
operation were doing business in 1902.
Fifty-two were in the business that
year. Eighteen discontinued before
1903.
In 1903 there were II new concerns in
the business and 80 discontinued the
same year. There were 100 in all that
year.
In 1904 there were 81 concerns in the
business and 40 discontinued, or 1O6
in all.
In 1905 there were 81 new concerns,
and 3S discontinued, or 141 in all.
In 1906 there were 43 new concerns,
and 20 discontinued, or 146 in all.
In 1907 there were 81 new concerns,
and 1853 in all.
The following figures illustrate the
growth of the American automobile in
dustry since 1903 by the cost of the cars
which were manufactured during those
years: 1903 $4,000, 900; 1904. $24,500, 900;
1905. $4O00O,OOO; 1906, $65,OOO,O0O, and
1907, $90,OO0,0O0.

Replacing pistons in their cylinders is
sometimes attended with considerable
trouble, due to the difficulty of starting
the rings into the cylinder bore. If too
much force is used the rings may be
injured. A turn of fine steel wire should
be taken around each ring, and its ends
drawn together so tightly that the ring
is compressed below the level of the
piston surface. After the edge OF each
ring has entered the cylinder the wire
can be clipped off.

ton On the Subject.

The Mercantile and Financial Times
of New York, has some interesting
items from a prominent Louisville
firm the senior member of which was
born and reared in our Town. Among
other things, it says:
To all inquiries from investors that
have been addressed 10 this paper, we
have invariably replied that expert
knowledge and assistance are, of
course, essential in connection with
The purchase OF inveS; merit securities.
The element of safety has, above all
other qualities, to be considered in a
bond or investment security Of any
kind. There are also other details in
regard TO which the average Investor
has To depend upon the experience and
general knowledge Of the brokers and
