TO SHARE POLO GROUNDS.
Stadium to Be Home of Both the
Yankees and Giants.

NEW YORK. October 12.-The rumor
that the Giants and Yankees may share
the Polo Grounds next year has again
been revived. 1t is said that an official
announcement will be made in connection
with the double tenancy of the Polo
Grounds in few days. The fans remenl-
Der when the Giants home was burned
out Farrell generously turned over the
use Of his ball park to the Brush team,
and the Giants management has never
forgotten that kindness.
1t has been pointed out that the sched-
ules of both teams are so arranged that
it will be possible for the fultillment of
the scheme as there are as rule no
conflicting dates, and that this fact paves
the way for the Yankees playing their
games in the Brush stadium.
The lease for the American League Park
expires next May, and there is little like
lihood of renewal as the property is said
to have been disposed Of Work on the
proposed new park of the Yankees is
said to have been abandoned entirely.

At best. however Virginia's victory
was costly one. Capt. Todd, who has
been out of the game for two weeks
with a bad leg, was rushed into the
contest in a valiant attempt to win, and
shortly after he had gone over for Vir-
ginia's only touchdown, was carried off
the field in agony, a recurrence CT the
same injury. Todd. according to indi-
cations, will be out of the game for at
least three weeks.
Virginia Is Rushed.
Misunderstanding fairly rushed Virginia
off it's feet in the first quarter. carrying
the ball all the way from it's 20 to Vir-
ginia's 3O-yard line. Runs by Saunders.

explained that there was quite a
