MANY AUTOS ARE NOW
PASSING THROUGH ELY
Ely Record {:

Ely Record:
During the month of June 221
transcontinental autos registered at
the Ely garage while passing through
Ely over the Lincoln Highway. As
large number of tourists fail to
register, 1t is probable that at least
300 autos travelled the highway dur.
ing the month. Estimating at
least four to the car, or in all a
total number of 1900 tourists spent
from a few hours to a day or more
in Ely, and all left little money
with business men. During the past
week travel has been much heavier
than heretofore. averaging from fl.
teen to twenty cars per day, and
from all accounts the number will
be largely increased during the
next few months.

The Pennsylvania Military Academy
eleven. under the direction of Bill
Hollenbach, the old Pennsylvania hall
back. will arrive in town this morn
ing and this afternoon will see them
at College Park trying to nose out a
win over the Aggies.
The Aggies are in a bad physical
condition owing to the injuries of
Kishpaugh, Rich. Knode and Derrick.
and as these men are the mainstays
OF the team for the coming games
with Hopkins and st. Johns for the
Maryland championship 1t is hardly
possible that Curly Byrd. the Aggie
coach. will send them into the game
Notwithstanding this big setback. II
is thought that the local team will be
able to win, but not until everything
in their stock has been shown,
The Pennsylvania eleven comes here
with quite a reputation from up the
State, and as they will outweigh the
local team to a small extent. IL is
thought by all that the chances are
about even. The fact that the Aggies
have the State championship at stake
in the next two weeks will weaken
them to a great extent. but II Is ex-
pected that some real football will be.

OTHER GRID COMMENT

At the Kendall Green Field this after
noon the Carlisle Indian Reserves are
scheduled to meet Coach Harris Gallau-
Diet team, and as this Is the first home
game OF the season for the Kendall
Grecners a large crowd Is expected to be
on hand.
As has been the case in previous years
the Indians have been watched by large
crowds, and this promises to be the dope
In this instance, as Assistant Coach Nc
ellis, who has assisted Coach Kelly at
the Indian school to no small degree this
season, is directing the play of the ref
men and should spring some OF the new
est tricks in the way of formations and
forward passes.
The Gallaudet team has been strength
ened through the recovering Of Marshall,
the veteran end, who was injured In Che
V. NJ. /. game. and together with good
Judgment on the part OF the quarter
back should give the originals OF
America" a hard battle.
Coach Hart is confident that his team
will turn in victory. the first Of the
season, by the way through the playing
of Marshall. but he agrees that some of
the breaks must come his way. Prac-
tically every tribe of the United States
Is represented on the Indian team. and
the followers who view the game may be
able to find another Thorpe on the field.
Thorpe came out through his work with
these reserves. and II Is thought that an
other player Of his type can be made
with the proper coaching. Whether q
Thorpe is really a member OF the team
remains for the rooters to say. but the
game will be hard-fought and will AFFORD
plenty of amusement

ASKS TWO RACES

New York. Oct. FIN a communica-

Association last night Yale requested
that she be allowed to enter two boats
in the Columbia-Yale race, at New Ha-

Coach Rice, of Columbia. is reluctant
in granting this request, as illness and

enter a boat of veterans for the fall race
and il is doubtful whether the number
of seasoned rowers is sufficient to fill
both the varsity and Junior boats.

MORAN NOT Signed
FOR NEXT SEASON
Reported that President Baker Re
fused to Give Quakers Leader
Better Contract.

Philadelphia. Pa, Oct 22-President
William F. Baker. of the Phillies. Is
making the one best boot Of his life, If
reports from the Quaker City. to the ef-
feet that he let Pat Moran go home
without signing a contract for 1916, are
true.
While it often is the team which
makes the manager, yet due credit must
be given the former backstop for the
manner in which he has kept his play
ers on edge. They won the pennant in
the National League in a fair up-and-
up fight. and while Alexander was a
wonderful help. still 1t was up to Pat
TO break in a new shortstop, a new sec
ond baseman and a new third sacker.
He accomplished what was cut out for
him and had his men working har-
moniOusly.
1t is true that the PhiIlies, without
Alexander. would not look very good.
but Moran put the fight in his team. His
men hustled along in the worlds series.
showing great amount of courage even
in the face of three straight defeats, for
they made their best bid in the last con-
test and only the phenomenal hitting OF
Harry Hooper and Duffy Lewis beat
them.
Moran may not be the greatest man.
ager in the business. but he succeeded
in bringing a pennant to the Phils for
the hrst time, and II was MS INITIAL
trial at handling the rcins.
No doubt money is at the bottom of
the trouble between Baker and Moran.
II is said that Pat took charge of the
team for the same money he received
for coaching the pitchers under Reds
Doom. He wanted the chance to make
good. and now that he has delivered.
wants money. He is entitled to it. but
Baker. from all reports. is not fond of
giving up his dough
But Moran has all tine fans Of Phila-
delphia with him and there is every req
son to believe that the manager will get
about what he has asked for before the
training season rolls around. Moran is
called the David Harum of baseball be-
cause he jollies his men along and. when
the rough shedding comes, always has a
word or two of encoura cement which
