Why should not a track and field
team be limited as to the number of
men on it just as are baseball and
football teams? Why should one
university be allowed to enter a team
Of 40 men as against 80 entered by
their opponents?
These are questions which arise
from time to time during discussions
and they sem to be worthy of much
more consideration than has been
given to them in the past. There is
tendency to look upon track and
field events as individual competition
One runner is pitted against another.
One hammer thrower outdistances
another.
The fact must be taken into con-
sideration. however, that dual meets

are won by the team scoring the
greater number of points. Obviously
then, it would seem an unfair thing
to allow one side to enter 40 men
while the other side made use of half
that number of athletes.
In the recent dual meet held be-
tween the University of California
and the University of Illinois Is men
composed each team. No more were
permitted to compete. There were
16 events. 1t became at once ap-
aprent to those who were watching
the events that this placed too great
a burden on the Is men who were
compelled to enter into more events
than was actually good for them aside
from being unable to do justice to
them.
twenty-five to 80 men appears to
be logical number to make up the
personnel of track and field team.
An officially recognized number of
this sort would go long way to bet

ter track meets and make competition

and universities could meet the
larger institutions on a more even
footing. Where an unlimited num-
Der of men are entered on one side
there is a tendency to do lot of

be conceded a likely point winner.
This applies to such such races as

are no lanes to keep the competitors
in their places.

"But I've known all along that there isn't g. better fighting ball club in either league than the Dodgers, and think we proved 1t yesterday. Now that we have evened up the series we are go- ing out to set the pace and we expect to start setting it today"
 Robby did not have his mind made up regarding pitcher for the third game today, Or at least he was not telling, but 1t looked like either Sher- rod Smith or Al Mammaux with the chances favoring Smith by a wide margin.
 Manager Speaker was up against a game of chance in his selection. It was either Mails or Morton and Sir Tristram was undecided.
 'Every one of our pitchers is in shape and ready to start,' said Speaker. Mails, of course is eager to get into the series against his old team mates and I may start him but I'm not sure about it now.' A lucky selection of a pitcher on either side will mean much today. Speaker chose the wrong hurler yesterday just did Robinson in the first game, for Bagby, acknowledged to be one of the best right handlers in the Amretcan League, was far from be- ing at his best yesterday.

 SECOND CONTEST

Bridgeport High turned in her second victory of the season yester- day afternoon when she travelled up to Wa1lingford and took the Choate school of that place into camp by the score of IA to 6.
 Choate got off to a flying start in the first period when Toulman play ing at fullback near the centre of the

Choate again kicked off to Bridgeport and after making their first down the HiRtop lads lost ball on a tumble. The first period ended without any further scoring.
 Bridgeport took, the ball on the forty yard line to start the second period. Page and Whealen made re- peated gains, hitting through tackle and Galbietta added 15 more when he tore around right end for the first down. The ball was then given to Whealan who broke through the Choate line and made a thirty yard run, crossing the goal line and giving Bridgeport the lead when Ga1bietta kicked the goal. The first half ended with the score to in favor of the Red and Black crew.

 New York Oct. The Worlds S6eries Is nip and tuck affair now. With victory apiece the Indians and Dodgers we're on their toes today. The outcome Of todsy's game means much to both teams, but more to the Dodgers than to Cleveland, for after today the Indians will nave to their own backyard where they are conf1- Qently expected to annex the first worlds championship ever won by a Cleveland ball club.
 The setting for the third game was Ideal Fair weather was the order again today and the weather man promised rising temperature. Despite the fact that the Dodgers came back so strong in the second game and evened up the series Cleve- land still ruled a favorite in the bet ting as the rivals prepared to enter the third tilt. The Indians were quot ed at 6 to in Wall Street and Il to 10 on Broadway with betting at even money on the outcome of today's game.
 Dodgers "Hyped." Manager Wilbert Robinson and the 4embers of the Dodgers who have been full of ginger and eager to fight to a finish for the worlds champion ship all along were "hyped" up to the limit with pepper today and from all indications they are going to be the hardest ball club to beat that CIeve- land has ever faced.

 But Mails learned something kick ing around in the minor leagues. He is now 24 years o1d-in his prime as a ball player and he has a world of stuff" They say that when a left handler Is good. he is wonderfully good but when he lacks control he is hor- rib1e.
 'Duster'' must have that control, otherwise he never could have stepped out of a minor league to run up a succession of victories in fast com pany.

That hardly seems likely. Caldwell occasionally is un- beatable but he was bumped so hard this season that he ceased to become a regular starter. Morton holds about the same rank among the Cleveland pitchers.

They have disposed-for a few days at least-of Jim Bagby, who was rated series started, and they expect to make troubel for Mails, who has not had a lot of Major League experi- ence. If they win today they figure Speaker will be forced to shoot O. veleskie back at them on Saturday when the fourth game of the series is played in Cleveland.
 Smith Is Husky
 Smith is a big, husky citizen who can go nine innings and more if necessary. His baptism of fire in a worlds championship game was re- ceived in 1916 when he took the Bos- ton Red fSox and Babe Ruth along for 14 innings before he bowed in defeat. A veteran of several hard National league campaigns, Smith is a steady, reliable performer and he can hit too. He finished the regular season in good form and has had a good, long rest and is as ready as he

HARTFORD LOSES.

Hartford, Oct. 7.-The Hartford polo team was handed a defeat last night in a hotly- -contetsed game with the Lowell five, going down, to 4. Bobby Hart, a favorite in Hartford, played second rush for Lowell, and featured the game, caging four of the seven goals made by Lowell. It was the second win for the Lowell team in two nights. The tean played well together.
 All during the first period, P. Welch was a target for drives that kept him on the jump all the time. The Hart ford team kept the ball in Lowel1's territory most of the time and when the second period ended the score was a tie.
 Two pretty goals came in the first period after 13 minutes of hard work by Bouchard and Lewis playing. | Bobby Hart and Doherty of the Lowell team were given a hand when they appeared on the floor.

Worcester, by defeating Bridgeport at the Casino last night. pulled itself out of last place in the American Polo League race, while the local team went back into the fifty-ffty class, having won six and lost six games so far in
 the race. Worcester led the locals all the way last night, but in the last period Captain Quigey's men threw V little fright into the ranks of the vis- itors when Quigley's men in an excit- ing rally caged three goals in suc- cession and swept the visitors off their feet temporarily. digger Higgins, the { human flash, displayed some of his old time form last night by nursing the ball up through the Bridgeport field and taking a shot for the goal.
 His work featured the play.
 Malarky, a new man just entering the professional game, played first rush for Worcester and made fine showing. McGuire. a local skater, substituted for Carrigan and played we'll.
