 hnewaska handicaps the kickers to tme extent, Driggs has been hoisting the ball from fifty-f1ve to sixty yards on all his kicks. The coaches have found another kicker of ability in Jack Eddy, a candidate for backfield position.
 No shoulder pads have arrived at the Tiger camp as yet, so Coach Rush put off the scrimmage that he planned to hold yesterday until tomorrow. The regular drill in the fundamentals and a signal practice were held in both the morning and afternoon despite thundershower in the afternoon Ames, Haas and Eddy appear to be the most likely candidates for quarter back. A keen contest is already un- der way among these three men. Eberstadt, another quarter back can- didate, has not put in an appear ance at the camp, and it is not known whether he will play this fall

GRAND CIRCUIT RAGING
After Three Years of Non-Success McCloskey Finally Wins a Race Bad Day For Favorites.

Colum bus, O., Sept 19.-Three of the four favorites in yesterday after noon's opening races of the Columbus grand circuit meeting were from the Murphy stable. Only the most pro- nounced one, The Real Lady, was silC- cessful She took the Horse Review Futurity for two-year-old trotters in straight heats, getting no real opposi- tion from even Emma Mcgowan, that was twice second. Don Macdonald, the Indianapolis driver, had in charge the horses that defeated the other Murphy first choices. Miss Harris M, won the King Stake for pacers. She was a strong second horse to Roan Hal, that was four times second The first heat was won away from him by Sayde Densmore, fresh from the Great Western circuit.
 Miss Harris M, after finishing fifth in the first heat, stepped away better in the next one and won it in 2:C2 3-4, the fastest time of the race. In this finish both Roan Hal and Sayde Densmo were close up, as they were at the ends of the next two heats.
 McCloskey, victor in the 2:11 trot, has been racing for three full seasons on the Grand Circuit without being a winner until yesterday. He has been behind the money but few times, how- ever, and last year at San Francisco won two races. Yesterday afternoon he had a little more strength than Virginia Barnett and Empress of Rus sia. In the third heat, Pittsburgh was beaten by only a neck.
 Little Frank D., a recent addition to the Valentine stable, took the 2:14 pace. The field was the largest this year on the Grand Circuit. The first heat went to Queen Hal, a Canadian mare, with Little Frank D. finishing twelfth Tn each of the next three
 miles Little Frank D. won with ease.
