CAUGH HILL WINS
ECLIPSE HANDICAP
Jockey Turner Rides Three Straight
Winners on Return to
Track.

Norfolk, Va, Nov. 26.-Outside OF
Caugh Hills victory in the Eclipse Han
dicap for all ages at the Jamestown
Jockey Club track to-day, the card was
without features. Jockey Turner, who
was suspended last week for misbeha-
vior at the post, returned to the saddle
to-day and rode three straight winners.
He was also in the money in two other
races. Caugh Hill carried top weight in
the handicap. and the talent did not
think he could take the weight and win.
Amoret, with Butwell up. got his first
race to-day when he beat Takahira and
ten ordinary platers in d dash of six fur
longs. AncOn, a twO-year-Old, won his
second race of the meeting, defeating a
big field of youngsters in the first race
of the day. Summaries:

ION TO PHILADELP HIA"

West Point, N. Y. Nov. 6-The Army
eleven resumed its strenuous work on
the gridiron to-day in final preparation
for the Navy game. The regulars were
all back except Markoe and Hobbs. Mar
koe is still on the hospital list. Hobbs
followed the practice, but did not go in.
II looks as II Keyes had displaced Hobbs
as the Army's punter Keyes did all
the kicking to-day for the regulars.
Hooker. who had been doing good work
in the regular backfield recently, did not
get in the scrlmmage, but was given a
long drill in punting and showed great
Improvement. The regulars were lined
up against the scrubs for a half hours
hard scrimmage, and the showing of the
team was encouraging.

zAPP0NE ELECTED CAPTAIN
OF 1918 CENTRAL ELEVEN

Ricardo Zappone, CentraIs star guard,
was yesterday elected to captain the
1913 football team. Zappone has been a
member of the Central eleven for the
past two years, and has always played
good football. This season Zap" put
up a classy game in the line, often
breaking through and getting the man
with the ball before he had gotten start
ed.
Nineteen men were awarded ''C's," in
cluding Manager Brown, and the letter
men elected Zappone as captain. The
prospects for another championship team
at Central are bright, as the entire sec
ond team will return to school, together
with Reeves and Mess.

A Good Post Mortem.

William B. Hanna, the football critic
of the Morning Sun, has the following to
say:
'Given two lines in which there is so
little difference in the forward play as
to be practically equal, and superiority
in the back field will be big factor.
That was the case at New Haven Satur-
day. Harvard's whCle back field play
vas vastly superior. The line play, too,
vas splendid, but the Yale line made a
strong enough fight for the game TO have
been much closer had there not been so
much difference between the two depart
ments combined. A striking detail, in
which the Harvard back field was better.
was in the fundamental Of handling the
ball and catching punts, as was ap-
parent to everybody.
1T wasn't in mere individual skill that
the Harvard backs We're better. lndi-
vidually they were quicker, surer, and
more discerning, but in addition they
played together better. 1t was a treat
to watch them and the whole Harvard
team, its poise, precision, and finish.
Now that emotional first impressions are
over it can be seen that 1t was rafting
good scrap between the two lines. 1t
was so individually, but with Harvard
lie smoother whole on the rush line
with a line whose strength was more
evenly distributed.
That Harvard eleven, with its speed,
accuracy, football sense, and power.the
power impaired by individual activity in
co-operation-was the hummer. Not
much stock is to be taken in the asser-
-tion that the material wasn't up to the
standard-not with Wendells, Brickleys,
Parmenters, Storers, Hitchcocks. Hard
wicks, and Trumbulls lying around loose.

Chicago to Train on Coast.

President Charles Comiskey has de-
creed that the Chicago White Sox shall
do their spring training on the Pacific
coast again in 1918, although everybody
was given to understand, back in 1910,
that it. would be a case of never again"
for the White Sox. The transcorftinen-
tai jaunt in quest of a cline that is sup
posed to be more favorable than any
thing that can be obtained nearer home
will, of course, be acceptable to those
recruits who will make the trip, and
who have yet to see much Of the world
at large. But to the experienced play
ers, those who have already been
through the mill, such an announcement
is by no means pleasing, although there
is one redeeming feature in that no one
night stands are to be played upon the
homeward trip. The Sox will travel
upon a special de luxe, leaving Chicago
on the night of February 20. and will
come home from Paso Robles, the Sc
lected place, in the same manner. The
only exhibition games will be with Coast
teams, and before the White Sox return
they will be overnight guests of Frank

WEST FLORIDA PRESS, ASSOCIATION
ORGANIZED AT MEETING OF EDITORS

Immediately after the banquet given
by The Journal last night at the San
Carlos hotel In honor OF the West
Florida editors, the newspaper men
assembled and at very enthusiastic
meeting organized the West Florida
Press Association, electing Hub Allen,
editor Of the Milton Gazette, presi-
dent and fixed upon Cottondale as the
place for holding the next meeting. the
date to be determined by the executive
board later.
Last nights session was devoted
principally to a general discussion of
the advisability and necessity of an
organization of this kind and during
the discussion practically ell of the
West Florida editors present expressed
their opinions and offered some sug-
gestions on the subject. It was the
concensus of opinion that the time
was ripe for organization and that
much benefit could be obtained from
an association of this kind.
Frank T. Mayes called attention TO
the fact that an association of this
kind had been organized something
like ten years ago and that only one

Il was the unanimous expression of
the meeting last night that this will
not be the case this time, as prac-
tically everybody present agreed that
if meeting is called within the next
ninety days, or at any other time, they
will be on hand.
Among those who made talks during
the meeting were: Hub Allen, Of the
Milton Gazette, who stated the pur-
pose of the meeting and acted as
chairman; Frank L. Mayes, of The
Pensacola Journal; Larkfn Cleveland,
