Yes, II IL true Mr.. Wceghman has an

NEW SYSTEM FOR BIKE RACE.
sprint of Hour, Figured on Point
Method, May SuppIant Mile.

There IL possibility that the six day
bicycle race at Madison Square Garden
next week may be decided in a new way.
In the past it has been the custom for
the men tied for first place to sprint for
one mile at the finish of the contest their
placing at the finish Of this mile has been
their placing for the whole race and the
money was divided accordingly.
over in Europe this method has not
been followed, but instead a point scoring
system was used for the last hour OF the
tes,an;s to sprint for practically the whole
of the last hour, In former races here the
foreign riders have acquiesctd TO tho
American system and there has been no
hitch. This year, however the European
riders. some Of them being new to the
race in this city. have expressed dissatis-
faction with the American system and
threaten to stay out Of the race unless the
continental plan be adopted.
Four o: the French riders arrived on
the Rochambeau yesterday and they were
much in favor of the European system In
fac, with Sores as their spoke sman, they
claimed ;hat unless Manager mcfarland

First Football at.
Colombia ing Years

r HE student board of Columbia
met last night and sanctioned
the plan for a freshman-soph
more football game on Thanksgiv-
ing Day or the Saturday before.
In the afternoon A. r. Schultz,
president of the sophomore class,
called on Frank ID. Fackenthal,
secretary to President Butler of
the university. He learned to his
surprise that Intercollegiate foot
ball never had been under the ban,
that the edict nine years ago was
only against the intercollegiate
brand. 1t must have been stu
dent misunderstanding, Fracken-
thai said, that had caused the be-
lief that interclass and interfra-
ternity football were barred; that
the students could have been play
ing all these nine years IL they
only knew it. Last Monday THE
SrS announced exclusively the
plans for such game. The stu
dents further idea now, said
Schultz, is to work up sentiment
favorable to the game, with view
to the possibility of having a var
sity team and full intercollegiate
schedule next year.
