BELMONT SIGNS BU1WELL
Arrangement Causes Surprise as Jin- my Was Discharged by Former ETu- ployer for Failure to Obey Orders,

Baltimore, Oct 7.-Jockey Jimmy Butwell has signed to ride for August Belmont, chairman of The Jockey club, next season. Sam Hildreth, trainer for MT. Belm ont, arranged terms. MT. Belmont signed the con- tract. The terms were not made public, but it was reported on good authority that Butwell would receive close to $5,000 as a retaining fee, with an additional sum for each mount.
 The signing of Butwell by MT. Bel mont came in the nature of a sur- prise to racegoers and turfmen at the Laurel track
 Andrew Miller, owner of Roamer and a steward of The Jockey Club, discharged Butwell at Belmont Park fall meeting for disobeying riding in structions when he had the mount on Roamer.
 Butwell is a good rider, but during the past two years he has been care less regarding his physical condition It is understood that the new con- tract provides for his discharge if he does not keep himself in proper shape to show his best skill at all times while in the saddle

HAYES X-C0UNTRY COACH
Olympic Hero Will Handle Hill ani Dalers of Columbia-Expects to Have Big Field Out for Team.

New York, Oct. 7.-Johnny Hayes, winner of the Olympic Marathon at London in 1908, was appointed coach of the Columbia cross-country team and took charge of the harriers in their afternoon practice run on Riverside Drive.
 Hayes had scarcely more than 0 dozen men out, the squad being made up in the main of veterans of the 1915 team, but he plans to have a big turnout once he arranges a schedule of interclass races. He will work under the general direction of Nelson MetcaIfe, football and track coach.
 It was also announced that C. J. Merner, in charge of athletics at Iowa State University last year, had been appointed coach of the freshman bas- ketbaIl team. Merner is an assist ant in the department of physical education. He will not call candi- dates for the first year five until No- vember 1.

fBBETS FIELD DIAMOND
 AND MANAGER ROBINSON

Nearly 1,50O extra box seats would 1 be, placed on Ebbets field, Brooklyn, 1 and there probably would be 1,5OO ] circus seats constructed in left field, 1 it was announced. These extra ac- ! communications bring the capacity of l Ebbets field up to about 27,000 for 1 the worlds series games of the Brook 1 lyns with the Red Sox. The same 1 conditions exist in Boston, Allotment of the 54,000 reserved seat tickets for worlds series showed that the avail able reservations were OVcrsubscribed so greatly that many persons who asked for modest pair of seats were allowed but one, while others, asking six and eight in some instances ob- tained only a pair. The happieSt man in baseball today is Manager Wilbert Robinson, who piloted the Broolllyns to their first pennant in sixteen years.
New Britain herald., 1916-10-07

Because of the greater seating ca pacity of the Braves National League park in Boston, the worlds series games between the Red Sox and the Brooklyn Nationals will be played there instead of in Fenway park, the home grounds of the Red SoX, led by Manager Bill Carrigan. Enthusiasm over the worlds series ran riot throughout the Hub. Announcem ent by the Red sox authorities that every one of the 27,000 seats available for reservation at Braves field had been covered by application was evidence of the popularity of the Sox and the series. The demand for reserved tickets was so tremendous that many thousands of dollars had to be re- turned by the American league club through inability to fill orders. The "Royal Rooters'' are once more on the job, and will follow the fortunes of the Sox throughout the series.

MCGRAW TO REMAIN
sTittIe Napoleon Not to Sever His Connection With Giants, is Secre- l tary Fosters Assertion.

J New York, Oct. John J. Me- {Graw will continue to manage the lNew York National league baseball club next year, despite any reports to the contrary says John B. Foster secretary of the club. "McGraw all ready has gone over the plans for next year with President Hempstead,' ,' said Mr. Foster, "and has high hopes Of leading the New York club to a pennant. His contract with the New York club has another year to run and it is not fair to him or to the club to have rumors spread that he will not be with New York next year.
 Despite the roasting he gave them In the game with Brooklyn Tuesday, the players of the New York club are seeking McGraw to present to him a collection of Shakespeare's works, which they bought before his fare-up. There will be no public presentation cerem monies,

GRIDIRON INVASION BY SOUTHERN TEAMS
Dixie Against Yankeeland on To- days Football Program

New York, Oct. 7.-Unusual inter lest will be taken in the football games
 Scheduled for today owing to the fact 3that the chief contests will all have an &intersectional flavor, as five of the Heading southern university elevens ! will appear upon varsity gridirons in zthis section of the country, where they I twill test their prowess against teams Sabove the Maon and Dixon line. Yale will have as it's opponent the 8Tniversity of Virginia and the Bull #dogs, it goes without saying, will try and wipe out last years defeat, when 2the southerners won by a score of 10 Etc O. Princeton will have a new op- ponent in North Carolina. These two teams have not met for several years, and althought the Tigers won on the last occasion, the coaches are not talk 7 ing any chances ard will put. their 8 best eleven in the field. West Virginia S SNTesleyans will play Washington and Jefferson.
 New York will not be without foot 8 fall, as Columbia will open it's season with Hamilton college. The game will z be called at D. m.
 over III CEG BFOEA, r OEQHdIu "lli engage the Western Maryland eleven, and this should be an interesting con- test, as reports from both colleges state that the elevens are evenly matched.
 Washington and Lee will go to West Point, and this match should be really good try-out for the Cadets. The west will also be represented in the east, as Ohio University will oppose Syracuse in the stadium of the latter university.
 ! Practically every leading college eleven in the central states will be in action. All Big Nine teams, except h. 6iana, have games scheduled, in ciuding one of some mportance-that between Illinois and Kansas at Dr. bana. The others are mainly practice games although they should. furnish some stiff contests. Kansas should prove rather Q difficult proposition for Illinois so early in the season, al though the visitors will enter the game somewhat the worse for injuries. The s Illinois eleven, minus most of it's stars who made it a victorious organization for the last two years, will go into ac- ton an unknown quantity even, it is said, to the coaches.
 S Among the more important east versus east games Harvard will meet Tufts, Pennsylvania will play Frank lin and Marshall, while the Navy faces \ Georgetown. Colgate will be tackling Maine and Brown will have Trinity as an opponent.
 All these contests, together with sev- eraI others between eastern teams, promise to develop play rather more advancd than is usual at this period of the football season. The records of the invading southern and western e1evens last year show both great scoring power and defensive strength. and as they have retained a majority of the 1915 veterans 1t is expected that the home combinations will be forced to uncover something more l sthan practice football if they "re to hold thir own or win from the visit ing elevens.

Four Year Servers.

In addition to Marquard and Mey- CTS, Mathewson and Bender have each known, four world series years, ana. so have Collins, McInnis, Baker, otrunk, Oldring, Schulte and Plank.
 These have all picked up over $10,- o0o apiece from the post-season do- nauons, which shows in faint measure what the big October championship mas done for any number of athletes here and there.
 on the Red Sox lineup Duffy Lew IS, Harry Hooper, Bill Carrigan, For est Cady and Larry Gardner will be making their third collections next week.
 The four baseball clubs that have prof1ted most financially in world series emoluments are the Cubs, 4; Mackmen, 1; Giants, and Red Sox, 5. In the last ten years these four clubs have figured in no less than fourteen championships.

 Defeat

The second game of the series to de- eide the city championship will be played Sunday afternoon by the Pi- rates and Pioneers at the Ellis street grounds. The Pioneers won the first game last week after a hard battle end the Pirates expect to even up things on Sunday.

Rube began to collect various world series coins in 1911. They collected the losers end in 1911, 1912 and 1913. Then, for a spell, collections suddenly ceased. It was not until they were tossed bodily from New York across the bridge into Brook lyn that the collections began again.
 By next Saturday they will have gathered, all told. about $10, 0,000 each through the world series idea. And SlO,O00 is $10,00O.

Rorry Leads.

The year 1916 will make Barrys sixth world series collection. The ex- Mackman now heads the list of world series entries for ali time. He en- joyed four world series under the beneficent reign of Connie Mack and he is now upon his second under the almost equally beneficent rulership of Bill Carrigan.
 As Barry has played on four win ners and only one loser. with another winner in prospect, his net returns from the post-season idea will soon be over $1S.00O
 AS Barry has been in big league baseball only eight seasons, world series pick-ups, as you might say have averaged him about $2,40O a year for his complete term of service

WORLD SERIES CHATTER. No. 6. The Grand Old KaIe.

Connected with this present Octo- Der jubilee there are at least four able-bodied athletes who would like to go on record as indorsing the world series as an annual institution.
 These four athletes are distinctly in favor of the post-season champion ship for at least one fairly sufficient reason, viz, among them they have collected in the way of world series revenue, or they will have collected by next Saturday night, the tidy little sum of $50.000. And even in this fiscal year of an overproduction Of gold where the glitter is said to be distinctly prevalent $50,0OO is still $5O,OOO
 We refer to John Barry, John Coombs John T. Meyers and Rich ard Marquard.

Chicago, Oct. 1.-The Americans made it three straight from their National League rivals yesterday for the city championship by winning 8 to 0. Jackson's great batting won the game for Comiskey's men. Claude Williams great pitching baffled the Nationals, The total attendance was 1O,916 and the total receipts were $6,625. The National Commissions share was $662.5O; the players pool, $3,577.50 and each clubs share was $1,192.5O.

Out of the Dough.

So far. with all this world series gold tossed about-a matter now of at least $75O, ,000-the following clubs have yet to collect; Cincinnati, St. Louis, Cleveland, Washington, New ork Yankees. Six clubs have been on the outside, while ten of the six teen have gotten at least one whack at the autumnal ka1e.
 It seems a rough break of fate that such great ball players as Walter Johnson Larry Lajoie and Joe Jack son have never been able to enter the Big Show and obtain a sniff of the kale. Lajoie has served twenty years without getting into the big series, and now the big Frenchman's chance seems gone forever. In the last ten years he has drawn $9O,O from base ball, however, and the residue from this isn't going to leave him adrift without breakfast money

The Leaders.

Who has collected more out of baseball than any one else? The four leaders undoubtedly are Lajoie, Wag ner, Cobb and Mathewson. Mathew son probably leads the field, as he is now making even more money than usual as a manager. Cobb in the last ten years has picked up at least $10O,0O0, if not $125,000. And Wag- ner in his twenty years must have drawn over $150, 900 for his play.
 Before he is through Mathewson will have gathered at least $20O,o00 out of baseball alone.

Jack COoD1bS Next.

Jack Coombs comes next. Outside
 of Coombs, Johnny Evers is the only
 ball player who has known five world series.
 Coombs had four world series un-
 der Connie Mack. and now he is fac ing his fifth with Brooklyn. There was a time when it looked to be a long, downhill plunge from the Athletics to the Robins, but in taking the leap Colby Jack jumped uphill. The standing of the clubs in the American and the National league will show you how far uphill Coomb came.
 Coombs has partaken of three win ners and one loser, with the odds now that he will be in on second loser. This is no cinch computation, but l the outlook is 8 trifle that way. Tn spite of that Coombs will soon have taken down over $13,000 for 1 his world series share. the same be- 1 ing sufficient to add several acres to | his Maine plantation.
