Belmont's Horse Lands Hon.
ors When Sandman II Runs
Into Puts and Calls.
SLUMBER II LANDS STAKE

New York, Sept 10.-Harry Payne Whit.
ney started Sandman II. one of his Eng.
lish running wonders, down at Belmon,
Park today. To the surprise of the multi.
tude. the Whitney horse was not only
beaten. but was disqualified out of sec.
| ond money for interfering with Puts
and Calls, which came in third but was
moved up a peg after Sandman II was
thrown out. The price on Sandman II
was to 5.
When Sandman II bumped Puts and
Calls he ruined the latter's chances OF
winning. chances about as bright as
anything ever seen on a course Tor
Hat, Belmont horse. won. In his next
start Sandman II will probably win, but
that's no solace for today's outing.
To even up for the miX-up in the third
race Slumber II, a stablemate of Sand

the Merrick handicap over the mile
course. The hackers of Sandman II got
even on Sumber II.

FIGHTERS AWAIT ACTION
By FRANK G. MENkE.

New York, Sept 10.-While Packey Nc.
Farland and Mike Gibbons loafed today
the promoters of the 's322.5 fight" that
will take place at Brighton Beach tomor.
row night reaped a harvest Of dollars
through the medium of big ticket sales.
IF the night is clear. as the weather
man promises it will be. we'll have a
$40, 900 house." said Promoter William C.
Marshall "Our sales so far. together
with the reservations, total around $4,000.
That more than clears our total expenses
of s55,O00.'
Mcfarland and Gibbons in perfect con-
dition took things easy today. following
their action in abandoning training yes
terday. Gibbons weighed around 1iS to-
day and Mcfarland about 1881. The
drying OUT process of today and tomor-
row will send both men into the ring at
the required weight of 147 pounds.
Gibbons a FavOrite.
The bulk of the fight fans today favor
ed Gibbons, but Mcfarland has good
chances of winning decisive victory on
points The Gibbons enthusiasts. who
are offering to on their man. are sure
that Mike will get home a sleep-produc-
ing punch, but it seems hardly within
reason that a knockout can figfiure in a
ten-round bout in which two of>the most
scientific fighters in the world are par
ticipants.
Quite a bundle of Mcfarland money
came into sight today. The hackers of
the Chicago boy have been holding off
until they could be shown that McFar-
land has "come back" The wonderful
speed. amazing defense, the perfect
judge of distance. and mule kick
punch that Mcfarland has shown during
his training has been convincing. and
the Mcfarland folks are ready now to
back the stock yard boy to the limit.
Mcfarland probably will quit the ring
after tomorrow night. He never has
been beaten-and he wants to quit with
an unbeaten record. But win or lose
the result OF tomorrow's battle will not
affect his future in pugilisTn, because his
days as ring performer end tomorrow
night.
Gibbons. on the other hand, will stay
in the fight game. A victory for him
would make him peer Of the welter-
would make him one of the
greatest drawing cards in pugilism. If
he wins he is assured probably of s1Oo,-
Doo in purses within a short time. But
II he loses it means a setback for Glib
bons: it lowers him from the high plane
and makes him just an ordinary attrac-
ton in pugilism.

FOOTBALL OFFICIALS
WILL MEET TONIGHT

The annual Interpretation meeting
of the football rules committee Is to
be held in New York tonight The
meeting is to be held a week earlier
than usual in order to accommodate
number of coaches and captains
who previously have been unable to
attend owing to the fact that their
seasons had already opened.
The advance date will allow the
committee to get out the pink slips
on which the interpretations are print
ed. earlier than has heretofore been
the case. This will be a decided al
vantage to many teams as in former
years they did not receive the rulings
made at this meeting until some time
in October.
1t is not likely that there are many
corrections to be made IN the rules.
They have been pretty well sifted and
codified during the last two or three
years and the game Is pretty well
understood as II stands.
Charley Cox, the graduate manager
of Athletic at the Hilltop, will at
tend the meeting to select the official
for the Georgetown games this sea-
son.

TWO NEW PLAYERS
REPORT FOR SQUAD

Two new players reported for the
Georgetown football team yesterday
which brings the Hilltops' squad up to
twenty-seven. Neil Cronin, the right
flanker of the varsity eleven from last
season. was one of the new men on
hand and Coach Exendine placed him
in that position in the team practice
yesterday.
Harold Showalter, from the Omaha
Prep School. a promising half back,
was out in uniform and placed in a
tackle position on the second squad.
Coach Exendine is making a big
effort to have the candidates in
readiness for the Princeton game on
Saturday. September %, as he drove
the candidates at top speed yesterday,
keeping them at work for two hours
and one half Forward passing was
again the big thing as the squads
were drilled for nearly one hour on
this branch of the game.
OConnor, Hanlon and Killroy were
again sent to one end of the field to
practice drop kicking and each
showed a marked improvement over
their work Of Thursday. The new
formations, which were given the
squad at the morning blackboard
talks. were put into motion while
time was taken at practicing chang
ing the ball. running down punts and
falling on the pigskin.
The squad was divided into two
teams which lined up as follows:
Second team-McCarthy, center; Bar
ron. right guard; Gillespie. left guard: :
Riordan. right tackle; Showalter, left

TITLE DOUBLES
Go FOUR SETS
Connie Doyle and Selden Cap
ture Honors at Columbia
from Gore and Treanor.
MISS EVA BAKER WINS
BY JOHN A. DUGAN.

Honors were settled in two classes
yesterday at the fourth annual invita-
tion tennis tournament of the Columbia
Country Club. The finals in the mems
doubles between Connie Doyle and
Harold Selden and A. ]. Gore and Paul
Treanor went to the first named after
a quartet of brilliantly played matches
which brought applause from the gal
lery. Doyle and his youthful partners
landed the honors by 6-4. Is. Ga,
and Ga.
Miss Eva Baker. the District ladies
singles champion. captured first hon
ors in the ladies' singles from Miss
Dufour in the finals by GO, 6-3.
This match attracted a large gallery.
as many who have witnessed the work
OF Miss Dufour. in her matches up to
yesterday. considered she had a real
chance with the title holder
The serving of Miss Baker will long
be remembered by those present, as
shortly after the first set had got un-
der way it was seen that Miss Dufour
must give way to the brilliant drives
and lobs of the District champion
Doyle and Selden did not have any
easy time in landing the three matches
which brought to them the honors in
the doubles Gore and Paul Treanor.
who is one of the most promising
young players that has entered a
tournament in this vicinity in a long
while, kept the champion and Selden
constantly on their mettle. In the
second set when Gore and Treanor
came through with a victory by 60,
some thought it was the turn of the
tide of battle, but the veteran cham
pion was equal to the occasion, and in
the next set put his team in the lead
by the wonderful welding of his
racquet
fours Harold Selden played a remark
able game. III facing Gore and Treanor
Se!den was against two players who are
at I'll times on an edge for an opening.
IT, younGster stood before their terrific
dives. and time and time again met their
serves IKE a veteran. At the critical mo-
m@nts. when Selden would falter, the
veteran Doyle was their with the punch.
recovering poorly played ball or a hot
serve.
Although these doubles are now record
ed with Selden and Doyle as winners.
the work of the 1ecaatcd pair, Gore and
lreanor. deserves more than special
mention. as throughout the entire
four sets they were fighting at all times,
and the netwHk of the younger player
was by far the best that has been wit
messed in the tourney w, far.
Play in the mixed doubles was DELAYED
a little owing to these two important
matches. vhi'c but few games were play
ed in either the mems consultations or
the women's consultations.
Today Connie Doyle, the veteran Dis
trict title holder will meet A ]. Gore in
the final match in the mems singles I'm
less the unexpected happens the cham
= ion will romp in with the honors.
