FROM THE VIEWPOINT
OF THE PRESS AGENT
Sousa and His Supports.

While 1t Is universally conceded
that John Philip Sousa has written
some Of the finest marches known to
the world. and has been hailed as the
March King" In every part OF the
globe, he asserts that If his reputa-
ton depended only on marches, and
II he was asked to go around the
world with his band playing marches
only, he would step out and retire,
IT have made some reputation from
the standpoint of versatility and pro-
gress," says Sousa. land to follow the
traditional line is not for me. / fiatter
myself that / have built up n new
instrumental body that can compare
with the best symphony orchestra in
the world. and would never agree
to confne myself to one kind OF COM
position or one composer. even though
that composer be myself My band
was not built In day, or In year.
and when 1t was finished 1t didn't
have a set OF champion solofsts with
q lot Of poor supports-tt was all
soloists.'
Sousa and his band will be here at
the Academy tomorrow. matinee and
night. with three splendid soloists.

Harness Leadership
at National Show

NEW YORK, Nov. 1e.---As Ia usual
about the middle OF the week the
horse show in Madison Square Garden
began to find itself today. Always q
slow beginner II attracts small crowds
for the first few days, but gathers
until the end of the week finds the
-. r. o." sign hanging In the
lobby.
There were many attractions on to-
days program. hackneys and polo
ponies, interesting the afternoon
crowd. while competitions for the Bit
more and Sir James challenge cups,
and thrilling water jumps of inter-
national Importance, were among the
choice numbers reserved for the night
program.
There was an object lesson in style
IN the afternoon, when the hackney
stations were judged on the lead. and
the comparison was all In favor of
the superb high stepping horse. The
shutting grooms appeared ridiculous
az they endeavorea to keep pace with
the fiery movements of the high step
pers.
With no other equipment than white
hackneys showed n horse in the
highest state Of perfection and there
was the greatest interest among the
crowd as to which would earn the
Judges award. Clarence H. McKay's
exceedingly dark chestnut, Land
OBurns, was favorite from the
start. the chestnut color was relieved
by four white sox, the white marking
so small that they could hardly be
called stockings but 1t harmonized
VT Tire .srst- trarf,tnes and served
TO bring out the development OF the
stallion. Land 0Burns had a rival In
Daniel J. DriscoN's Aduinus, which.
though scarcely SO dainty in move
ments, showed a little more spirit
than Mr.. Mackay~s entry, and earned
the blue ribbon.
Judge William II. Moore maintain
ed his lead In the harness classes
while Walter n. Hanley. the leader
IN the saddle classes. gained two more
blues. one Of which was for a run
about. George a. HeyI swept far ahead
of the exhibitors OF ponies and is now
the chief rival of Judge Moore for
the honor of biggest blue ribbon win
ner at the show.

smashing up Pennsylvania plays this
afternoon. only the Pennsylvania plays
were not the real thing. The varsity
did lot of good defensive work this
afternoon, and at least got familiar
with the formation which the Quakers
have used so far this year.
So far the practice has developed
nothing to show that the same team
that faced Lafayette will not take part
in the game against Pennsylvania Bar
Tett Is the only varsity man who is
suffering from injuries. He was at the
field this afternoon. but did not ap-

coaches fear most Is the loss of his
punting. His kicking leg is reported
to be In poor shape. and even IL he gets
into the lineup there is grave danger
that someone else will have to do the
punting.
