tioninR of candidates for the third
international special race having
progressed to the intensive stage
Trainer Eugene Leigh announced he
would send his French champion
Epinard, over the full mile and a
quarter distance at Latonia today.
Much interest centerS in this trial
as some horsemen have been in
clined to doubt the European candi-
dates ability to negotiate such q
testing distance in a manner indicat-
ing that he would prove a match for
the many sturdy "routers" he will be
pitted against Saturday.
Among the horses given trials yes
terday in preparation for the $4,000
special event were c. Brice Heads
Altawood, winner of the I.atonia cup
handicap at two and one-Quartef
miles. and My Play. Lexington

compares favorably with the work OF

to battle for the prize.

Last year players fitted from one
team to the other with the prospect
of earning more coin. There was
no strict eligibility code and the
team that could afford it got the best
talent. Before the annual clash be-
tween Mercury and the Mohawks an
agreement was reached whereby
players were eligible who performed
in only one or two games.
In one instance last season an un-
limited contender played some COM
paratively unknown lightweight team
and thereby called all of its players
eligible for the more important
matches.
Arlington Athletic Club has picked
a tough opponent in the Waverly
eleven Sunday at 3 o'clock on the
Maryland Park field. Waverly should
offer the Virginians keen battle.
Sand lot fans expect to watch a
red-hot scrap when the Anacostia

BOXING RULERS CURB
H0T-AIR CHALLENGES

NEW YORK, October s.-An effort
is to be made by the State Athletic
Commission to put an end to the
practice of b.rca = managers issuing
meaningless challenges for advertis-
ing purposes, Chairman George T..
Brewer announced after a meeting of
the commission. The first step to-
ward improving conditions will be to
obtain from each manager under the
commissions Jurisdiction a list of
boxers whom his fighters are to op-
pose.
This arrangement is expected to
afford the commission a chance to
check on a boxer whenever he pub
licly issues a challenge, and to call
him to task if the object of his chal-
lenge is not on the list published by
his manager The new plan, it is
hoped, also will make easier the task
OF the club matchmakers and promo
ters who have complained recently of
being unable to sign matches which
appealed to them.
Chairman Brewer announced at the
close of the meeting that Mike Nc
Tigue, lght-heavyweight champion
of the world, will have to defend his
title against Gene Tunney, American
champion, before he will be permit
ted to box Paul Berlenbach at Madi-
son Square Garden November Z, as
planned by Promoter Tex Richard
Leo Z. Flynn, manager of Jack Re
nault, Canadian heavyweight, and
Dave Shade, California challenger for
the welterwefeht title. appeared be
fore the commission and accepted the
return of a $4,000 bond he posted
several weeks ago to bind a match
between Shade and the winner of the
Mickey Walker-Benny Leonard well
terweight championship bout which
was abandoned when Leonard con
tended his hand had been injured
Chairman Brewer said that Walker
will not be permitted to box in this
State until he consents TO defend his
title against Shade.

NAVY is NOT AFRAID
OF MARQUETTE TEAM

ANNAPOLIS. october Sin spite of
the fact that IL more decisive victory
over William and Mary eleven than that
indicated by the score Of IA TO was
expected there iS no dscourag cement at
the Naval Academy, and the local con-
tingent is looking forward with keen
interest and reasonable confidence to
the meeting with Marquette Saturday.
William and Mary played a wonder
ful passing game, the result of the in
struction received from Rockne, the
Notre Dame coach, who had 'his foot
ball school at Williamsburg this Sum
mer. and outdid the Midshipmen in this
style Of play. It's backs We're easily
held. but it also played a very strong
defensive game.
1t is recognized that Marquette prob
ably Will show much strength and va
riety in its passing game. this being
usual with the strong Western teams,
and that the Navy must brush up its
defense to this style of play.
Marquette regards the game with the
Navy as a great opportunity to add to
its reputation. There is no doubt that
ii has been preparing especially for it,
and will come to Annapolis with the full
intention. as Well as the expectation, Of
winning.

Several shifts have been made by
Maryland in an effort to bolster up
its backfield fortunes. CoghilI, who
has been subbing at right guard, is
being tried at right end. and Beatty,
who has been filing that position,
has been shifted to the backfeld.
Heine, subbing at fullback until now,
got a chance to call the signals yes
terday at quarterback.
Pugh, captain of the Maryland
eleven, and the most dependable
ground-gainer for the last three
years, probably will be on the side
lines for at least three weeks, per-
haps longer. He has a partial frac-
ture of two ribs, received in the game
with Washington and Lee last week.
George Washington is in rather an
unfortunate position in having to
hold practice on the Monument
grounds. 1t might as well send all
its plays and everything it has in the
way of offensive equipment to its op-
ponents, because there is nothing to
hinder them having men to watch
the practice day by day.
Georgetown fs getting ready for it's
game with King College here Satur-
day, and while many reports are coming
from the Hilltop about the coaches
being dissatisfied with the outlook,
IN all proba bility the Blue and Gray
will place on the field about as strong
q combination as it has had in years.
And, something else, despite the great
reputation which has preceded the
King College eleven, Georg
probably will win without much diff
tculty. At least, that is the opinion
expressed by a former foot ball play
er who has watched the Tennessee
team in action this fall. This player
says, King College has a good team
for its class, but as for being able to
beat Georgetown, there's nothing to
it. Georgetown will win by a good
score"
Maryland and George Washington,
on the other hand, are certain to get
plenty of opposition Saturday. The
Old Liners, who will entertain the
University of Richmond at College
Park, will be meeting one of the best
elevens the old Dominion school ever
has turned out. And the sensational
Maryland team of last year only beat
Richmond, % to 0, and none of the
members of the regular backfield
that scored these points will be in
Saturdays combat. The Hatchetites
are to take on Western Maryland
here and will have TO be much better
than they have shown SO far to be in
the running.

To me the value of scouting an
opponent thoroughly is of vast i'm

team intelligently for a contest. In
fact, l consider good scouting OF
opponents during the season about
40 per cent of the success of any
foot ball team. For instance, every
team has an almost different style
OF offense and this should be con-
grams on the blackboard in lining
up the scrub team or the freshman

ISu can familiarize your own team
with the formations of your oppo-
nents and you can prepare your
team 10 meet their strong plays to
not be surprised by their trick plays
and to be able to block their favor
ite forward passes.
The foot ball team should have a
thorough knowledge of the style OF
defense used by their opponents
Some teams may use six-line des
tense and other teams a seven line
defense. One team may have high
line and the other d low-chargine
row. One team may have ends that
come into smash interference while
another my have ends who stand
on the line of scrimmage and wait

Fire Destroys
Big Tenement
House in Waterville
(Special to Kennebec Journal'

Especial to Kennebec JournaD
Waterville, June "a double alarm
at lis this morning called the fire
department to a four and one half
story dwelling house at 8 and
10 Green street owned by Sim
on Leclerc. The fire, which
started from an unknown cause in a
small wood shed at the side Of the
house quickly worked its way into
the heart of the tall structure and
upon the. arrival of the department
was blazing fiercely.
The dwelling house was occupied
by six families as follows. Mr.Le-
clerc. Lorenzo Leclerc, Daniel Bou-
dreau, Peter Poulin, Emile Paridis.
and Joseph Bolger, who were forced
out onto the streets in their night
clothes and were taken to q nearby
house. Very little was saved from
the house. The fire will probably be
a total loss estimated at $4,000,
which Is covered by insurance.
The house owned by Fred Provost
next to the Leclerc dwelling house
was in great danger of the flames but
streams OF water were played on the
house and it is thought that it can
be saved.
