Savannah, Ga, Nov. 2s.-Thousands of
visitors from all parts OF the country
are here for the opening tomorrow OF
the road race meet of the century, -
which will take place shortly after day
break. The majority of the motor en-
thusiasts are on hand, however, to wit
ness the race for the Vanderbilt Cup,
the most noted national classic for auto
mobiles, which will be started early in
the morning.
This is the seventh running OF the
Vanderbilt Cup, and 1t is the first time
It has been held elsewhere than on Long
Island. The fourteen entries ready to
start are no less great than many of
those speed kings" who have contested
in the past.
The contenders for the cup are, Lozier,
Harry Grant; Marmon, Bob Burman;
Pope-Hummer, Louis A. Disbrow; Mer-
cedes. Spencer E. Wishart; Jackson,
Harry Cobe: Mercer, Hughie Hughes;
Abbott-Detroit. Carl Limberg: Lozier.
Ralph Mulford; Abbott-Detroit, L. A.
Mitchell: Mercedes. Ralph De Palma;
Fiat, E. H. Parker; Marmon. Cyrus
Patschke: Fiat, David Bruce-Brown, and
Fiat, Joe Matson,y
Harry Grant, whose number in the
race this time is /, is the only driver
entered who ever won the cup on two
occasions or twice IN succession in the
same car. He was winner in 1909 and
1910, in an Alec car.
The ever-smiling Mulford will handle
the second Lozier car in the race, and
he has his share of supporters. A lot OF
folks here believe Bob Burman will beat
his car up too much to make a success in
the Vanderbilt Cup. Syrus Patschke,
who will drive a Marmon car. is classed
as a dark horse, on account Of his work
in the 900 mile race at Indianapolis last
May.
The first event will be started at dawn,
and contestants for the Tiedman Cup and
the Savannah trophy will race stimuli
taneously. No sooner will these have
finished than the Vanderbilt Cup con-
tenders will be started.

VICTORIOUS NAVY
ELEVEN RETURNS
Tremendous Reception for
GridirOn Warriors.

Annapolis, Nov. 26.-After the mid
shipmen had taken the horses from the
vehicles which waited at the station for
the members of the victorious Navy
football party and drawn the returning
warriors through the streets of Annap-
oils. a tremendous reception was given
them in front of Bancroft Hall. The
midshipmen all had lighted brooms, and
these with the supply of the waste
baskets from their rooms. were made
into a huge bonfire, which lighted the
scene while the players and coaches ad-
dressed the audiences from the top of a
porch.
Capt Dalton was the first speaker. He
praised his entire team. He said Gil
christ, the quarter back, was the hero
of the game, and that he had come to
him in the third period and said that
his physical condition was such that it
might be better for the team to have
a man in his place. Dalton told him, he
said to stay in. and he gritted his teeth
and stayed to the last, although he could
hardly walk.

Tech and Central are ready for the bat
tie, and real battle It promises to be,
as each team is in perfect shape, and
the workouts last week showed that the
boys are ready to put up a great game.
In the Manual Trainers back field,
Country Morris will play quarter; Eek
endorf, left half; Peake, right half, and
either Putnam or Gilbert in full back.
Gilbert is fast. and seems to be the man
for the position.
There is a chance that Zappone, the
fast end, will be seen at a tackle or
guard position against Technical Zap
pone is one Of the hardest tacklers in
the game. and 1t is more than likely that
he will be used in the line. Another fast
youngster. who will get chance in the
Tech game to fight all the way through,
is little McDOnough, the hustling end.
Mac" is the smallest player in the
scholastic ranks, but at that is a mighty
good man.
Buck" Howard, the fast back OF the
Western eleven, will be a candidate for
the shortstop position on the ball team,
and that the fast lad will prove to be
as big a help as last year on the dia-
mond is almost a certainty. Howard Is
one of the best infielders in the scholastic
ranks, and as a hitter he is one of the
best.
When Business takes the field against
Western this week, the Stenographers
will have their strongest team for the
first time this season. Wilson and Black,
the fast tackles, are in good shape, and
the other members OF the eleven are in
perfect condition.
Manager Collier, OF the Business eIev-
en-, is anxious to play Western We'd
nesday, and now that it has been
learned that Georgetown Field is out
of the question for that day, either
the Cathedral School field, Union
League Park, or Gallaudet will be named
as the place for the game. Gallaudet
seems to be the choice for the battle, as
the Buff ard Blue schedule is completed
and the field will be vacant. 1t is un-
derstood that Western Is willing for the
game TO be played Wednesday and the
only thing that remains is for the fac
ulty advisers to arrange the field. This
will be done this afternoon.
While the Baltimore Country Club
failed to put up real fight against the
vigilants yesterday at Capital City Park
it was not the fault of the local man
agement, as Joe Oliveri made two trips
to Baltimore to get the Cross Country
team to come over, as they had made
a great showing in the Monumental City
and 1t was thought that they would be
able to give the Vigilants a hard bat
tie When the team arrived here they
were minus two men and had to use
two Of the local football players.
The game Thanksgiving Day between
the Vigilants and the All-Star scolastic
eleven will prove to be one of the best
games that has been played in the park
this year, as the high school boys are
working hard for the battle and expect
to hand the Vigilants their first defeat
at the hands Of an independent team In
three years.

Were it not for the fact that the Tech
nical-Central game next Tuesday is to
be given primarily for charitable OBJ
ject, the Georgetown officials would re-
fuse their sanction for the contest be-
cause of the wretched shape of the grid
iron. AS 1t is a big force of men and
steam roller will be set TO work all day
Wednesday, in the hope of putting the
Place in some sort of playing condition.
Georgetown winds up its season with
Thursdays Lehigh game, and the team
has made an enviable record, with only
one defeat-the Indian game-charged
against it. AS the boys have had only
light practice during the past week, live
ly scrimmages will be in order during
the next few days. The scrubs will be
taught Lehighs formations and the
varsity will attempt to break them up.

all the early Chicagoans, and could tell
the exact spot in the city on which each

records of all the early settlers.
He served in the civil war as lieuten-

Thanksgiving Day.

Carlisle, Pa, Nov. 26-with every hope
OF winding up their present season with
greater credit than has ever gone to a
local team in the past, the Carlisle In

night from its victory over Johns Hop
kins at Baltimore.
The next two days work will be aimed
directly at the Indians closing contest
of the season, which will be held on
Thanksgiving against Brown University
at Providence. Brown will be the first
team since the early games to meet the
whole Indian varsity lineup.

CORNELL LINEUP UNSETTLED.
Team to Practice in Atlantic City
for Pennsy Game.


for Pennsy Game.
Ithaca, n. Y, Nov. 26.-The definite
lineup of the Cornell football team for
the annual game with Pennsy will not
be decided upon until after the team
holds it's practice in Atlantic City on
Tuesday or Wednesday, said Head
Coach Daniel A. Reed to-day. Whether
this Is done to keep the players on
fighting edge or because the coaches
have themselves not determined what
the team will be is not explained.
The only change in this lineup over
that which has been playing for sew
eral weeks is the substitution of Will
hanson for Champaign. The regular
man has not been playing hard enough
to suit Reed since the Chicago game
and II is sure that he wont start in the
Pennsylvania game anyway.
One reason why the Athletics were able
to land on the Giants pitchers was
because the Philadelphia men on the
coaching line nailed the signs. That is
what they are still saying around the
baseball world. Take that stun out some
place and hide It.

II Means Health
For the Child

The careful mother, who watches close
ly the physical peculiarities Of her chill
dren, will soon discover that the most
important thing in connection with a
child's constant good health is to keep
the bowels regularly open. Sluggish
bowels will be followed by loss of appe-
tite. restlessuess during sleep, irrita-
bility and a dozen and one similar evil
dences of physical disorder.
At the first sign of such disorder give
the child a teaspoonful of DR.. CaldwelPs
Syrup Pepsin at night on retiring and
repeat the dose the following night if
necessary-more than that will scarcely
be needed. You will find that the child
will recover it's accustomed good spirits
at once and will eat and sleep normally.
This remedy is a vast improvement
over salts, cathartics. laxative waters
and similar things. which are altogether
too powerful for child. The homes of
Mrs. Evelyn Matson, SIG Milwaukee ST.,
Milwaukee, Wis, and Mrs. Kate Hawley.
Waukesha, Wis, are always supplied with
DIT CaldwelPs Syrup Pepsin, and with
them. as with thousands of others, there
is no substitute for this grand laxative.
1t is really more than a laxative, for it
contains superior tonic properties which
help to tone and strengthen the stomach,
liver and bowels so that after a brief
use of it all laxatives can be dispensed
with and nature will do it's own work.
Anyone wishing to make a trial of this
remedy before buying it in the regular
way of a druggist at fifty cents or one
dollar a large bottle Family size) can
free of charge by simply addressing DR..
w. B. Caldwell, 201 Washington ST.,
Monticello, Ill. Your name and address
on postal card will do.
