SEASON IS
NEARING AND EYES
TURN TO COLLEGES
SPECULATION BEGINS ON THE
CHANCES OF BIG SQUADS TO
WIN GAMES.
BY GEORGE R. HOLMES.

United Press staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, Sept 4.-The sphere
that comes up out Of the eastern no.
rizon mornings is beginning to assure
a slightly oval form. and those who
have been speculating as to Ty
Cobb's chances Of finishing with a
400 average are beginning to won
der how Harvard is going to get
along without Charley Brickley. The
well known football season which has
been on its way for a year is almost
here.
The lid will be officially pried off
two weeks from today when Coach
Kelley's Carlisle Indian bucks collide
with Albright at Carlisle.
A week later the big universities of
the east and west swing into action
and the season will be on in full. Lit
tie Dartmouth. which proved a Tar
tar for the big fellows last season
starts off with the Massachusetts, Ag-
gles on their home lot; Colby stacks
up against Harvard the same day;
Penn state takes on Westminster:
Princeton lines up with Georgetown;
Syracuse with Hobart: the University
of Pennsylvania with the University
of West Virginia and the Yale crowd
mixes with the University of Maine
at New Haven.
The absence Of any big intersec.
tional combat this season has de-
tracted a lot from the interest. Last
season fans in the east and west had
the Yale-Notre Dame and the Har-
Michigan battles to look for
ward to but the eastern schedule
makers passed up the teams from
the middle district and for the most
part the games will be local quarrels
About the nearest things to clashes
between the east and west are the
Notre Dame Army game, November
6 and the Michigan Pennsylvania
battle a week later, November 10.
What easterners call their first
really big game comes November 6,
when Princeton meets Harvard at
Princeton. Some other good games
are on the docket for the same aft
ernoOn with Yale meeting Brown at
New Haven; Dartmouth meeting
the University of Pennsylvania at
Boston: Ohio meeting Indiana at Co.
lumbus; Purdue meeting Iowa at La
Fayette; Michigan meeting Cornell at
Ann Arbor; and oregon mixing with
Washington on the Pacific coast.
A week later comes the Yale
Princeton battle. Brown meets Har-
ward on the same day, Michigan and
Pennsylvania come together; Cornell
plays Washington and jefferson:
Illinois meets Wisconsin and Kansas
and Nebraska clash.
The climax comes seven days later
when the historical Yale-Harvard
game, with all the accompanying
ceremonies. is played at Cambridge.
Yale, with Brickley gone from the
Crimson ranks. has high hopes of
avenging last years defeat

Tommy Clark is scheduled to ar

his training for his 20 round bout

Farrell declared today that never
in his ring career has he felt better
than at present and stated that he
would give Clark the roughest bout
he has ever experienced.
Word comes from Weston that
there will be several carloads of fans
come to Pendleton from those towns
for the fight and longer interest was
never higher Farrell and Clark put
up such a rattling good fight at Athe-
ma last month that the fight fans are
just naturally hungry to see them
fly at each other again. One of the
best crowds of the season is expect

Two good preliminaries are promis-
ed TO fill out the evening. Tickets

THREE-DAY REGATTA
OPENS AT ASTORIA
WEATHER AND BIG
CROWDS MARK THE START
YESTERDAY

ASTORIA, Ore, Sept. S.-Nature
was kind to Astoria yesterday and
provided perfect weather for the op-
ening of the three days aquatic car
nival. the goth annual regatta and
the affair started under auspices that
insure its success
Large crowds were present and
lcng before the hour set for the first
event on the program, the grandstand
was filled and the wharves were lin
ed with people anxious to enjoy the
days sports.
Amid the booming Of cannon the
royal party arrived at the grandstand
promptly at $50 o'clock, and with a
ceremony that was both simple and
beautiful, Queen Tyne was introduc.
ed by'King Neptune and was crowned
by Admiral Wilson as sovereign OF
the regatta
Races Prove Thrilling.
Immediately afterward Admiral
Wilson declared the regatta open
and directed that the races begin.
Smooth water with no drift and the
speedboat Hoodoo conspicuous by its
absence combined to make the racing
events an unqualified success.
AS the racers sped away up the
course their engines hummlng evenly
and as softly as the purring OF the
typical house cat and the white spray
thrown up by their pfunging bows
gIistening in the sunlight, they made
a beautiful picture.
VOlgcr Boy sinks Near shore.
After dropping out of the free-for-
all race, the speedboat Vogler Boy
sprang a leak, apparently from the
hard pounding while racing and sank
