u. OF P. ATHLETIC
ASSN is WORRIED
Baseball and Football Only
Sports Which Show Profit.

Although the financial report Of the
University Of Pennsylvania Athletic
Association for last year has not been
made public, it is understood that the
Quakers are finding themselves becom-
ing more and more deeply involved in
quagmire in which financial Difficult
ties are the most vital elements.
Baseball and football are the only
sports which show a profit for the
Quakers and the balances they turn in
are all too small 10 meet the drains
on the treasury made by the other
sports.
The Pennsylvania authorities ascrbe
most of their troubles 10 the fact that
each year $4,000 has TO be taken
from the receipts to meet interest and
maintenance charges on the Franklin
Field plant. When Franklin Field was
constructed some fifteen years ago it
was turned over as a gift 10 the uni
versity trustees, but the athletic as
ISOLATION bound itself to meet the in
terest charges on tn mortgages COW
ering the grounds, and also TO main
tain the field l. is this burden which
weighs heavily on the entire Penn
sylvania athletic system.
Rowing. which is not expected 10
yield a financial return, represents an
annual outlay OF $4,000. while track
athletics manage TO hold their own,
although. as a rule, there is small
deficit All the minor sports, how
ever, are continued at a loss. and the
only solution Of this problem Penn
sylvania sees is a football schedule
containing n game with either Har-
ward, Princeton or Yale and a winning
team.
A winning team alone does not seem
enough, according to the Quskers, 10
make both ends meet, and i is the aim
Of the Pennsylvania committee to
schedule a game with one Of the three
teams named for 1916.

Classic for TWO-Year-Olds
To Be Run at Belmont
Park on Saturday.
MANY FAMOUS HORSES
ON LIST OF WINNERS
Thunderer Likeliest of All Cam
didates Named to Start Over
New Course.

There is no race in this country that
has az much sentiment connected with
il as the Futurity Stakes for two-year-
oIds. which will be run at Belmon:
Park on Saturday, September A. during
the autumn meeting of the Westches-
ter Racing Association.
The fact that it is the most valuable
prize for which thoroughbreds contest
in the United States-it will be worth
inward of $500 this autumn-is not
alone responsible for the glamour sur
rounding t. There is above and be-
vond the financial return the satistac-
ton which comes TO every man wheh
he does something better than his TEL
lows, and the fact that the breeders
Of the first three horses share IN the
spoils keeps the interest IN the race
alive from the day the dam is named
for the prize. II is the race that every
breeder of thoroughbreds hopes to win
some day, and it was worth TO single
individual s77 1000 in 1890.
Originally raced as the feature Of the
autumn meeting Of the Coney Island
Jockey Club in 1888, it endured as a
mart of that organizations programme
until the big track near New York was
closed TO the public, and for three
wears it was run at Saratoga. TINS
season il has teen transferred to the
Westchester Racing Association by the
Conev Island Jockey Club, and hence
forth il will be part Of the Belmont
Park programme in the fall, just as the
Suburban will be the big event on the
opening day each spring.
Belmont Park would appear TO De 'ne

Westchester Racing Association has
