NOW MITCHELL RETURN
TO STANFORD RUM0RED
Crack Los Angeles Athlete EIig-
ibIe to Play on Varsity
Another Season

PALO ALTO, July 20.-The initial
bombshell of the coming football sea-
son was hurled yesterday, when 1t was
learned on the best of authority that
'Mow" Mitchell, last years cardinal
captain, would again return to college
to take a postgraduate course. AS
Mitchell is eligible to play another
year with the varsity, it is a safe
bet that he will again be found in
the ranks of the cardinal hooters. The
authority for this statement is one of
Mitchells closest friends, who Is
recipient of several letters from him
since he left for Europe in company
with his brother, Standish.
"Mow' Mitchell is one of the great
est Rugby players that ever donned
uniform on the coast, and was one or
the stars selected by Manager Nc
Mahon of the Wallabies as possessing
international possibilities. He gradu-
ated in the spring of the year ana
announced his definite retirement from
the gridiron and college life, but sew
eral of his closest friends have been
urging him to reconsider his decision
in order to give the Cardinal varsity
fifteen some tinge of veteran blood.
When Mitchell entered college four
wears ago he did not set the world on
fire as an athletic light, showing very
little promise during his freshman
spurs as a hurdler and high jumper.
but the figures attained by him in these
departments were too high and low re-
spectively for publication
In his second year Coach flanagan
picked him out of squad of raw foot
ball recruits as likely material, and the
development of the Los Angeles boy
was like that OF weed, though 1t
lasted longer. At inside five-eighths
Mitchell has no peer on the coast, be-
ing an invaluable cog in a passing
wheel, a sure tackler and speedy and
dazzling dodgy runner. Furthermore,
he carries a level head on a sturdy pair
of shoulders and is always thinking
and his body rapidly responds to the
action of his brains.
AS a baseball player Mitchell has also
earned honors for his college. Both
at the third corner and in the short
field he has worn the cardinal sweater,
and he is considered one of the best
players ever turned out from Stanford
farm. He was one of the most popular
men at Stanford during his four years
residence, and the news of his probable
return to the university will be well
coined by every undergraduate study
fner there

CONDOR FAVORS PARI
MUTUEL BETTING FORM

Word comes from Chicago that no
more betting will ever be attempted
in the state of Illinois. This is the
direct opinion of none other than John
Condor, owner of the Harlem race
track. In further discussing the rae
ing situation in Illinois he said that
he believed the pari mutuel machines
would solve the matter, and that they
would be approved by both the public
and the authorities.
In final summing up he said:
"Open betting is a thing of the past,
but should I start up again I shall cer-
tainly favor the machines. Local con-
ditions are in such chaotic state at
present that there is no telling which
way the cat will jump"
AS a matter of fact there is a great
deal of interest and anxiety being eX-
hibited as to the probable direction Of
the cats jump. for Latonia there are
at present over 300 horses waiting for
word from Chicago. Should the gates
be thrown open there will be no lack
of horses, as a great many turfmen
are delaying shipments for definite
news.

BROKER MADE FREQUENT
CALLS ON MRS. YOUNG
AIIege Couple Figured in Several
Exciting Episodes

WASHINGTON; July 20.-It was
learned today that Charles w. Rig
don was frequent visitor at the home
of Mrs. Alexander Young when the lat
ter lived in fashionable section of
this city a little more than year
ago. After living here for about three
months Mrs. Young suddenly disap-
peared after an exciting episode in
which Rigdon figured. Rigdon arrived
at the house one night, it is alleged,
and found the place dark.
There was no response to his re-
peated ringings and he smashed all the
windows within reach of his cane.
Rigdon disappeared before the police
arrived.
Soon afterward Mrs. Young aban-
doned the house, leaving her furni-
ture. She wrote to one neighbor she
had bought a house in a Maryland
suburb and to another that she had
met with reverses in the stock market
and was going to California. Later
letters were received from her from
California.
Rigdon and Mrs. Young are alleged
to have figured in another exciting
incident. One night he was walking
along the street with Mrs. Young
when they met negro, who, Rigdon
thought, insulted Mrs. Young. He shot
the negro, who was not badly hurt.
Rigdon was not arrested.

the center of the quadrangle the space
will be used, in all probability. for
football, soccer and rugby and for
baseball and lacrosse. A large con-
crete swimming tank is also contem-
plated in addition to numerous sets of
showers. The location for the new
addition to the university is prob
lematical, but will probably be as near
to the main buildings of the university
as is practicable, possibly on the site
of the existing gymnasium. The near
ness of the gymnasium is necessary to
admit of classwork during the regular
routine of academic study.

THIS MAYOR TOO
ENDORSES CURE

Says One of the Worst DFunkards He
Ever Saw Was Permanently Cured
Works and Supports His
Family Now.
To Whom 1t May Concern:
had a man that had sentenced
to Jail number of times from
drunkenness; he was one of the
worst drunkards I ever knew. He
was treated for three days under
my observation at the Atlantic hos
pital by DIR. B. e Neal and at the
end of that time he was discharged
and to every appearance perfectly
cured.
The result of the treatment in his
case is truly marvellous. This treat
ment took place in the early part
of January and l have seen this
man frequently since. He is won
derfully changed and improved,
mentally and physically. Immedi-
ately after his treatment he took
up honorable employment and is
today working and supporting his
family. l have no hesitation in CIV
ing this treatment my unqualified
recommendation.

NEW YORK RACING LAW is
EASY TO EVADE, SAYS COOK

SAN FRANCISCO, July 2O.-Judge
Carroll Cook has returned from New
York and states that the law recently
enacted by the legislature at Albany
is as full of holes as was the anti-race
track law that was passed year ago
in California.
Cook says he made a technical ex-
animation of the New York law and
expresses it as his opinion that should
the race track men carry their case to
the courts it would be clearly proved
unconstitutional. He looks for an early
victory in the courts and the return
of racing in New York.

OPEN-A|R GYM IS
PLAN At STANFORD
Foundations of Building Wrecked
by 1906 Quake viii Be
Abandoned

When the handsome million dollar
gymnasium of Stanford university was
destroyed in April, 1906, when 1T was all
but completed, the loss at the uni
versity was keenly felt Ever since
the athletes at the institution have
been working under a handicap be-
cause of the meager apparatus con-
tanned in the old wooden structure.
Now, however, it would seem that the
disaster was a blessing in disguise, as
Stanford university is to have one of
the most modern and unique gym
nasiums in the world.
While it has not been definitely an
nounced, it is practically understood
that the old foundations of the de-
stroyed gymnasium will never be used
for a new gym structure, but that the
trustees will build a shelter or group
of shelters which will comprise an
open-air gym which will be different
from anything hitherto attempted by
universities. The experts who have
been consulted in regard to the
project are enthusiastic and state that
an open-air gym at Stanford would be
far superior to the old-style affair."
The excellent all-year climate of the
Palo Alto farm will be taken advan-
tage of and the athletes permitted to
work in the open air, rain or shine.
Dad Moulton, the veteran trainer Of
the Cardinals, is enthusiastic over the
plans, and believes it will increse the
standard of track athletes and follow
ers of all other branches of sports. He
Furthermore believes that the men will
turn out for gym work at the uni
versity and train, whereas now many
do not do so because of the limited
apparatus.
PRESLEY ADVOCATES IT
Coach George Presley of the football
and baseball squads is another sup
porter of the new gym idea, and prac-
tically all of the varsity men expect
great things when the affair is COM
pleted.
Plans for the gym are in formative
state at the present time. President
David Starr Jordan, who is strongly in
favor of the scheme, has had the plans
under advsement for some time. He
is in Europe, on his sabbatical leave,
and will not return to the campus until
the first of the year. 1t Is not ex-
pected anything will be done before
this time.
AS planned, the new gym will be
built in the form of a large square,
the architecture being smaller to that
of the quadrangles of the academic
buildings.
The main feature will be cinder-
path under cover, shelters for ap-
