HIGH RECORD SALE OF STOCKS. 2,250,G00 Shares Were Dealt in, Ex.
 elusive of "Odd Lots"

New York. Sept. 25.-All records in point of activity for nearly a decade were surpassed on the stock exchange today when 2,250,000 shares, exclusive of countless odd lots" changed hands, to the accompaniment of numerous new high records. Many of these gains were sacrificed in the last hour, more particularly the last fifteen min utes when a selling movement vast as it was unexpected. caused a shrink age of almost six points.
 United States Steel, in which deal- ings were again on an almost incred. ible scale. dropped from 120. it's neJ maximum achieved in the forenoon, to IA 3-4. closing at 115. a net loss of two points, after gross gain of three points.
 CoppeTs which rivarled Steel in prominence and strength. with new recorGs for Anconda, Utah, Inspiration and several lesser issues. also broke abruptly, though in some instances retaining a part of their advance
 Reading, also included in the list of important stocks that found new high level, at 115 1-4. yielded two thirds of its rise in the closing price of 113. Other rails which had man. ifested strength. notably Union Pacific St. Paul, New York Central and the coalers, fell away in the receding movement.
 Motor shares like Maxwell and Stutz and Central Leather, all of which had broken into new high ground. capitulated to the weight of the selling.
 There were no known or tangible developments to account for the re- versal, other than the growing i'm pression that conservative financial intersts had become increasingly ap prehensive over the extrayagant spec ulation of the past three weeks and Lol T

RED SOX ORGANIZE
 BOARD OF STRATEGY.
Boston Preparing for Coming Worlds
 Series.

Boston, Sept 25.-Reservations in the worlds series games to be played iE this city, if the Boston Americans re- tain their league championship, will be allotted on basis of priority of mail applications, it was announced by the club management today. Thou sands of applications have already come in and these will be filled in the order of their receipt, acknowledgment of which will be forwarded by mail. It is expected to start the machinery of distribution by Wednesday, according to Business Manager T. w. Lannin. Not more than four tickets will be al- lowed to one applicant.
 The Red Sox preparation for the title series has not been confined to the business end, Heine Wagner and Jack Barry, who, with Manager Ca1ri- gan, have formed the teams board of strategy having been assigned to ob- serve the Brooklyn Nationals in com ing games with view to learning the style of play of the possible rival con- tenders. Wagner left the club at Cleveland yesterday to take UP this work and Barry is understood to be ready to leave his home in Worcester. where he has been under treatment for a broken hand. Splints have been re- moved and the hand is healing well, but the question whether the Red Sox captain can take his place at second base in the world series is still an open one.

By SOL METZGER. Coach of Washington and Jefferson Football Team.)

Intercollegiate football owes it's life to the open game. During the doubt ful days following the season of 1905 it seemed doomed because mass play and beef turned the tide of victory and defeat Up till that time rough f1ourished because the mucller could hide his dirty work in the sCrinma ge, and injury-not always accidental - was common. The public rightfully demanded a clean game-one which put. a premium on sportsn1anship, strategy and speed. Had these quail ties not been substituted fer brutal play and sheer physical power foot ball stood to be abolished.
 Thus was born the forward pass and thus died the old mass plays wherein the runner was pushed, pulled and which, while exacting strategy of coaches and generalship and individ- ual initiative of players, in no way sacrificed the splendid qualities of courage and cooperation that have always characterized this sport.
 Yet the change was gradual, rather than immediate, due in part to a ten dency among coaches to hold to form CT principles. But the constructive minds of football welcomed the new scheme of things, particularly the for ward pass, as they saw therein Op portunity to make the results off con- 
 avoirdupois. And while it must be granted that many successful teams have not used this means of attack there is ample evidence that the for ward pass ranks on equal terms with the most powerful running offense as a weapon of attack.
 Defense has ever been the key to success in football. For years it has been demonstrated that the team which checks the opposition's attack cannot be defeated. Therefore when the forward pass was given to foot ball the first problem of the strate- gist was to create a defense for it. In order to produce successful defense Q coach must know or sense the at tack. As few of them adopted the forward pass as an instrument of at tack the defense they determined up- on was based on theory and was not sound. It did not provide for practi- cal contingencies; but it did prove that running offense was possible in view of the fact that there> was a
