signed for pleasure and is intended
to afford the setting for the quiet
happy hours Of college.
The reception room to the right
of the entrance, furnished by Mrs.
Warner, though of an entirely diff
ferent type, is no less pleasing in
effect. A japanese rug Of unique
design and coloring, especially
woven for the room covers the floor.
The blue ground is interspersed
with butterflies Of delicate coloring
The furniture is stained wicker
with cretonne coverings, colors
which blend beautifully with the
shades in the carpet. A series of
pictures, reproductions of the paint
ings by Violet Oakley, hanging in
the capital at Harrisburg, which
portray the story of William Penn,
line the walls, and breathe that
suggestion of the donors s personal
Ilty, which is SO conspicuous in the
ideal home. Inside curtains of blue
Isundure over the dainty white cur
talns next the window complete the
color scheme Of the room. A beau
Itiful brass clock with small candle
sticks furnish the mantle, while be-
tween the windows is the gold
framed mirror - pronounced so
dear to every girl s heart.
Quantities of white flowers were
tastefully arranged in the rooms on
Tuesday, when girls, arriving from
all parts of the State, received a
first impression of their college
home.
Directly opposite the entrance is
the large assembly hall, running
the length of the building. Here
dances, dramatics and the various
social functions of the year. will be
held. .........
The rooms on the second floor.
with great wide windows and
ample closets, are rapidly losing
their look of sameness and taking

principally by the various women's
clubs of the State. Every girl upon

Rochester Out of the Race;
BisOns Have Slim Chance

While the Providence Club has
death grip on the International
Leagne pennant it is still possible
for the Grays to lose out according
to the official schedule of games re-
naming for the Buffalo and Provi-
dence teams. Providence has a lead
of three full games with only two
more contests to be played, while
Buffalo, now in second place, has
five games remaining with Montreal.
Should Providence lose its two re-
naming games and Buffalo win five
straight the Herd would win the flag
by one point. Tho percentage would
read: Buffalo, COS and Providence,
60i Rochester is out of the race SO
far as first place is concerned. To-
ronto put the kibosh on John Cancels
men yesterday. Up to that game the
Leafs had won only four and lost
fourteen to Rochester, but at the crit
icai moment Rochester fell down.
The Hustlers fought gamely, coming
from behind in the ninth and scoring
twice, tieing up the game, anly to lose
in the last half of the inning. Pipp,
whose bad throw put Rochester on
the toboggan three days ago, tried to
make amends with a home run, but
his best in the hitting line was a fail
ure so far as victory was concerned.

10Y NOW RE|GNS
AT ST. BENED|CT'S
Naming of Sanford Hunt, For
mer Cornell Football Star,
as Coach, PIeases.
TEAM PROSPECTS BRIGHT

There was joy in the ranks of the
st. Benedicts football team yester-
day afternoon when it became known
that Sanford Hunt, for four years a
guard on the Cornell eleven, would
coach the squad. Hunt, from 1900 to
1904, was recognized as one of the
leading collegiate guards. He was
captain of the Cornell team in his
sophomore year and was chosen by
Walter Camp as an All-American
guard. Yesterday the new preceptor
at st. Benedict's arrived too late 10
coach the team. He was introduced
to the members of the squad and will
probably get busy with the team Mon
day afternoon at the Casino Field.
High and William streets.
The st. Benedict eleven presents a
strong appearance on the field. Pen
gitore, the Orange High School star
athlete, who is expected to fill a big
gap in the ranks of the st. Bene-
dict eleven, has not been out with the
team, but is expected to report for
practice Monday. Forward passes
were tried yesterday at practice, and
some good work resulted. Frank
Nolan, who is managing the team, is
finding difficulty in arranging games
So far the st. Benedict manager has
only two games booked, one with
South Side High School for election
day. and the other with Central High
School for Thanksgiving Day. Games
are pending with Mt. Pleasant Acad-
envy, Mt. Vernon, Ridgewood, Dick
inson, Westfield, Bloomfield, Orange
and Roselle high schools.
1t is rather early to get a line on
the team as the practice during the
week has been rather light owing to
the weather. Next week the boys ex-
pect to get down to some real hard
work.

yvitter Doubles in Ninth.

Leo Witter was the hero OF tho
ninth inning rally for it was his
double sandwiched in between singles
bv Kraft and Heckinger that brought
home victory. Kraft opened the ninth
with a single. Witter then tried 20
sacrifice, but failed twice, showing
the luck Of the game, for after he
had deliberately tried to give up his
time at bat, he was compelled to hit
and he made good with vengeance.
He shot one down the third base line
for two bags. 1t was screaming
smash and Kraft scored easily Heck
niger then drilled a safety to ieft,
when everybody was looking for
Thompson to pass Mike. Witter
romped home on the hit, though
Kelley made a hurried, but futile,
effort to nail him.

MCGlennon Cup Awarded
to Arlington Company Nine

Following a protest lodged by the
Maple A. c., committee met last
night at the home of Clarence O'Don-
nell in Kearny to consider the ques-
ton of the ownership of the McGlen-
non Cup. The Maple A. G. and the
Arlington Company nine met on Sun
dap in the final game for the cup, and
the Arlingtons won by the score of
6 to 3. After the game the losing side
protested that the Arlingtons had
used Speary and Pfahler. two local
semi-professional players, in their
lineup. A counter charge was made
that the Naples used outside players
also. The committee, after due con-
sideration, voted to give the cup to
the Arlington team.

Coaches Matthias Macherey and
Guido Cavallero, of South Side High
School. are finding a difficult task in
developing a player who will do the
punting for the varsity football
eleven. In practice John Alexander
has been showing ability, and will
probably get the preference in the
opening game of the season, which
takes place at the City Athletic Field
with the Lincoln High School team of
Jersey City. Alexander played tackle
last year, but is now being drilled for
the fullback and end positions. AL
though rather deliberate. he gets off
some long spirals, and with a little
more practice the coaches are looking
for him to show big Improvement.

No suitable Opponent Available

Manager Floyd MacFarIanu TIC !
for hours to find a suitable oppoAent
for Mcnamara in a pursuit race for
Sunday to replace the Grenda-Mc-
Namara race, but finally gave up and
decided to put on another race IN
stead. There are but two, or three
riders who class with Grenda and
Mcnamara as pursuiters and they are
all engaged Sunday in other races,
MacFarland would have put on Egg
in the place of Grenda, but Egg is to
ride a tandem paced race with Jimmy
Moran and George Wiley, and that is
a big afternoons work in itself. All
Goullett is in the French point match
with Kramer, another eligible, so the
manager had to scratch the pursuit
event.

Hard Task for "Dopesters. /"

According to the schedule as ar
ranged by Manager John Trimble, the
Newark Academy team will not be
seen in action against any of the
local school elevens. Those who fol-
low scholastic football will have a
hard job on their hands when it
comes to picking a team for city
championship honors. The local
Academy boys have games scheduled
with three of the New Jersey Inter-
scholastic Athletic Association teams,
East Orange, Montclair and Stevens.
The ''dopesters' apparently will have
TO go roundabout way in making
a selection. Newark Academy's first
game will be played Saturday, Octo-
Der 10, with the Stevens Preparatory
School at Academy Field.

Early start of No Avail.

Jersey City broke away like a sure
winner. A double, two singles and
triple gave the enemy four counts
in the first round. In the second,
Newark tied it up and would have
gone TO the front, but for the fact
that Leo Callahan was caught trying
to make second on a short tumble by
Farrell. I4uque evened matters by
fumbling, or rather riding, Ed.

straddled most artistically, and then
Kraft, Witter and Heckinger tore off
safeties AS in the ninth, Witter
doubled, his hit scoring e. thinner

The champion was not at all pleased
with himself after a workout yester-

about the only thing that would bring

cool weather. He had dropped his
gear and that was not an improve
