The law just signed by Governor Williams disposes of
any minimum gas rate question.
Any public service franchises be carefully drawn

city must be protected and all such propositions must be
given all possible publicity before asking the voters to pass
them Wide and varied experience IN matters have
made very eXacng about all these important and valuable

All these, and especially the protection of the city credit
by preventing actual deficit in the sinking fund will have
to be worked out by the chief executive of the city

FOR SEATS AT CHICAGO PARK
White SOx Hope That Support of Home Crowd Will
Enable Them to Take Today's Battle.

Chicago, Oct. 13-The weather to-
day was less suggestive of ball
game than of starting the Christmas
shopping early. Although the New
York Nationals and the Chicago AM
orleans were to meet here for the
fifth game of the world series this
afternoon the line in front of the tic

start to form until O'Clock this
morning. Three hundred fans were
shivering in the line at daybreak. A
vendor of camp stools beat retreat
about this times as everybody was too
cold to sit down. In several places
there were little camp fires and a
brisk business in hot coffee and steam
ing frankfurters was done. The
weather man promised clear skies and
a slightly warmer air by afternoon.
Although the series stands two and

tached to today's contest, scalpers'
tickets were far below the prices de-
manded for the first two games a week
ago. Box seats were obtainable at SIS

either team from that made familiar
during the first four games. Chi
cago enthusiasts made ready for the
game in spirits far different from the
confidence that followed the winning
of the first two games by the White
Sox. At that time they regarded the
series as good as won, but when New
York BANKED the Sox for 18 consecu-
tive innings on the Polo grounds that
feeling disappeared and was sue

was that the breaks of the game

BROWN DEFEATS
HOLY CROSS BOYS
IN SNAPPY GAME

Worcester. Mass. oct. 1s-Brown
won its third game of the season here
yesterday by crushing Holy Cross un-
der a score of 81 to 6. The Bruno
ians scored their first touchdown on
straight football with Brooks and
Coulter carrying the ball through the
line. With the ball on the courtyard
line Brooks smashed through the CEN
tire left tackle for touchdown. Cor
don kicked the goal.
During the second period the play
switched back and forth until only
three minutes to play. when Brown
opened up with a forward pass, Cor
don to Brooks, bringing the ball to
the Holy Cross twenty-eight yard
line. Brooks here kicked the ball
through the uprights for three points.
In the third period Daley, the Holy
Cross full back, attempted drop
kick, but Armstrong of Brown pick
ed up the ball and ran seventy five
yards for a touchdown. After an ex-
change of kicks Coulter recovered a
tumble and ran thirty yards for a
touchdown.
In the fourth period. with the ball
on the Holy Cross thirty-yard line a
forward pass of fifteen yards put Coul-
ter in a position to add three points
to the score. Just before time was
called Conway blocked bunt on
Browns ten-yard line and scored a
touchdown for the purple.

This Year Because They Lack Practice.

to call such play "luck." AS a
matter Of fact running interference
on a return kickoff or at any other
time is about the finest example of
teamwork and preparation that an
eleven can show. 1t has broken up
many a game and while it is decried as
luck" or good fortune such a play,
like the blocked kick, is an actual ex-
ample of the highest kind of football
Either strikes for scores which de-
mand the least effort of the eleven.
Ellery G. Huntington, professor of
physical education at Colgate, a man
who knows football thoroughly, told
me this story recently of Colgate's
come back" victory over Syracuse In
1913, after Colgate had defeated
Yale.
Luck" said Dr. Huntington, "is
common word in football talk, but it
is usually thorough training and pre-
paration in fundamentals that it
stands for. I have seen many teams
practice the kickoff, the runner
bringing the ball up the field well sur
rounded by his teammates. 1t never
seemed to work in reality as in prac-
tice; yet Bankart, our coach, schoo1ed
his men diligently in this play.
"In the Colgate-Syracuse game of
1913 saw demonstrated the fact that
genius and luck consist but in the
ability to apply training to opportun-
ity. The score was 1910 in SYRIA
cuse's favor and the game three
fourths over. Syracuse kicked-off to
Colgate. AS I watched the ball ii
seemed fully five minutes before II
came down in my sons Ellery's arms
he was playing quarterback. A
quick dash, a clever side-step, another
forward flash and he was within the
sheltered wings of the protecting V
that had been so long and thoroughly
practiced Thus guarded he rushed
up the field for touchdown and from
then on, what looked like a close game
was really one-sided for Colgate. The
outsider said luck; the man on the
inside said ready"

New York, Oct. 13-A1 Mccoy who
won the middleweight title from
George Chip with fiuke knockout
punch some years ago, and who has
studiously refrained from defending
the championship bout in a contest
to a decision, has just adroitly dodg-
ed a bout with Harry Greb. Mccoy
was matched to box Greb at the
Broadway Sporting club next Tuesday
night, but announces that he will not
do SO, as Jack Bulger, who made the
match, has since ceased 10 be his man
ager.
Johnny Weismantel, manager of
the club, regards McCoy's excuse as a
weak one, for if he had no fear of
Greb, it would make no difference
who managed him. Mccoy adds that
he will never again box in New York
State, but will go to New Orleans.
This will not be regarded by patrons
of boxing in this State as a very seri-
Gus deprivation.

PETE HARTLEY LOOKS
FOR SOME BOUTS HERE

Leo Flynn, the New York boxing
manager, sends the following about
Pete Hartley:
The state of Connecticut has a new
lightweight champion in the person
of Pete Hartley, 1.-The New Durable
Dane" formerly of New York but
now of Derby, Conn. Hartley will
defend the championship Of the state
against all Ightweights that think
themselves contenders for the crown
The Dane has beaten some of the
best lightweights in the country. in
cluding Joe yelling, frankie Gala
han Hockey Kansas, Joe Goldberg,
Eddie Kelly, Young Gradwell, Chick
Brown, Young Blades, the New Eng
land lightweight champion, and many
others, besides giving Johnny Dun
dee the fight of his life in IL rounds.
Hartley bars no lightweight in the
world, even the lightweight cham
pion can have a match with the Dane
as well as any lightweight in the
state.
