They have agreed to drive a heat day

ten miles
II is suspected that the news that these
two men will race on the Atlanta speedway
Will not be hailed with any great amount
OF Joy by President Navin OF the Detroit
team and Ebbets Of the Brooklyn team.
Navin would probably consider the fact
that he has first call on Cobb's services

Canadian proxy. The countries represented
by delegates were Belgium. Finland, Ger
many Great Britain, Sweden. Austria,
Australia, France, Italy and South Africa.
Following is the official report given out
for publication:
It was agreed that the rules Of the fed
Grafton should apply to Olympic games
and to all open International events.
The proposed addition to the definition
OF an amateur was amended. the addition
to read; "A professional In any sport shall,
be considered a professional in swimming.
Billiards or similar indoor amusements
shall not be considered athletic games or
exercises"
Fancy and high-diving conditions were
submitted to the meeting, but, II being Inn
possible to properly consider these. they
were left ia the hands of the representa-
tives OF Germany, Sweden, Belgium and
Great Britain. with full powers
1t having been brought to the notice OF
the meeting that a Paris newspaper had
promoted a competition entitled a worlds
championship, the meeting strongly con
dsmned the practice and called upon the
y. 8. F. s. A. of France to obtain assur-
anoes that this should not be repeated.
The framing Of rules for the unificatlon
Of the laws Of water polo, proposed by
both Belgium and France, was unani-
mously left to Great Britain, such laws
to be in force until 1912.
A proposal brought forward by Australia
to allow professionals to be requalified

Hugh Jennings
Has Work Ahead
Man Who Made "E-yah" Famous, Will
Have Tough Job Training
New Tigers.

DETROIT, Mich, Oct s-Hugh Ambrose
jennings whose battle cry OF "E-yahl" is
known from one end OF fandom to the
other, has his work cut out for him next
year. Hughey Cam to this city in the fall
Of 1908 from the Baltimore club OF the
Eastern league. Under his leadership the
Tigers, who had previously been regarded
as tame cats, came forth from their jungle
and for three successive seasons they freed
every one who disputed their right OF way
and carried off the league pennant.
Imbued with their leaders spirit they
acted in concert with the precision Of a
smooth running machine. They we're mar
wells Of harmony, brain and speed This
year. however, things did not go as
smoothly. The cogs In the machine did
not fit as well.
The Tigers had become so used to fight
Ing that at times they even snapped at
each other Teams that used TO take to
the tall timber at the approach OF Jen-
mngs' pets chased them to their lair
and tied tin cans to their tails. Dismayed
by such indignities, they lost their conf
dence and their power of insulling terror.
Their fearsome roars degenerated into
sounds that suggested the frightened baas
Of lost lambs seeking the fold.
But all this does not mean that the
Tigers may not recover their ferocity in
1911. Jennings has work ahead Of him;
but when IL comes to developing new
material and strengthening the old there
is no better fitted for the Job than Hughey.
He had thirty-four cubs to develop into
full grown man-eaters
A large number of these win be farmed
out to other managers in minor Jungles,
who will feed them and instruct them until
they are considered large and strong
enough for major company. Others who do
not show sufficient promise will be turned
loose to shift for themselves. Some favored
few will be added to the Detroit band as
full-fledged Tigers
With so much material to draw from. It
is almost certain that Jennings will de-
velop enough new blood to reorganize his
team and make 1t more dangerous than
ever next year.

New Rules Give
Coaches Worry
What Few Games Have Been Played
Have Shown Little Change
in the Play.

NEW YORK, Oct s.--The foot ball sea-
son is forging forward. Games are being
played and the daily practices are becom-
ing harder. AS expected, the new rules
are giving coaches and captains untold
worry. Gallons OF midnight oil are being
consumed in an attempt to find evaslons
OF the spirit of the different clauses. The
flying tackle, forward pass and onside
kick are receiving more than their share
Of attention. The sharps tell us that No
vember win see the teams proficient in
the revised style Of play. SO far so good.
But tthe early season signs promise
trouble from an unexpected source. The
first scrimmaging has uncovered the dan
ger signals. VIII this new game be a detri-
ment to team play? Results to date show
q possibility OF such a condition being
reached. individual feats have character
lied the season to date. OF course team
play - never developed at such an early
stage In the season. But this year the
causes are different
In previous campaigns coaches have
moulded their machines slowly The finer
partg OF the mechanism did not click
smoothly until late October. The absence
OF team play was willed by the coaches.
They wanted their products to acquire
power by degrees. This year there is a
rule in the playing code that will have un-
doubtedly a detrimental effect on team
work. II is the clause stating that push
ing or pulling the man with the ball is
illegal.
Too much stress cannot be placed on this
point. Help the runner" 1t has been the
keynote Of foot ball success for years
An eleven with real team work always
had a flock Of men about the man with the
ball, pulling and hauling him along after
he was in the arms OF opponents. It had
get together feature that fired a whole
team. Championship elevens helped the
runner better than other teams
Already the results Of this restriction
are making themselves felt. It has shown

Of team work on the attack. and it win

III ASHINGTON.-One Of the mighty
w few instances on record Of the
United States having been done" in
its cash accounts came to light at
the treasury department the other day
in a decision handed down by the con-
troller of the treasury. In this par
ticular instance the government Is
short more than $4,000 and has no
way of helping itself. 1t became a
victim through the carelessness Of it's
own officers, and the victimization,
too, was not criminal in it's nature.
Prior to 1879 the late Samuel J.
Little of Georgetown owned four GER
tificates OF 6 per cent. stock of the
old corporation OF Georgetown. Upon
his death he left a life interest in the
stock to his sister, Mrs. Eliza A.
Ricketts,, and the residue to his minor
children, J. c. Little and Julia A.
Little. In the settlement of the case
before the probate court the actual
possession of the four certificates of
stock was passed to Mrs. Ricketts,, so
that she might collect from the treas
urer, from time to time, tho interest
due her.
Shortly after this United States
Treasurer Gilfllan issued a circular
calling upon all holders of George
town corporation stock, which was
