Reign Count was the favorite and
nerves Of the 10000 spectators were

Charged with fouling, Sande was
suspended from further races at Pim-

mission, which has the authority to
revoke his license as jockey, will
consider his case today.
The noted jockey, who has won
thousands for his employers, denied

Lang, his rider. Amid tears he
claimed his mount swerved against
Reign Count when Lang, he said,
tugged at his blouse.
Bateau was in the lead up to the

swept beside him. Doyle declared
Sande tried twice to elbow Reigh
Count into the rail and then "delher-
ately cut in front of him."

RIVALS FRATERNlZE
ON EVE OF CONTEST
BY LAWRENCE PERRY.

PRINCETON, n. J., November s.
Members of the Princeton and Ohio
State foot ball elevens, substitutes.
coaches and trainers sat shoulder to
shoulder at dinner in the Osborne
Field house here Friday night. The
fact that the players were to be np.
posed Saturday in the roughest and
grimmest of all intercollegiate games
did not affect the spirit of the ba nquet
at all.
One imagines that the effect of
this foregathering would he fine
not at all in the way of diminishing
the ardor with which the players
would carry on the game, NOT in
minimizing the ruggedness of p,ay.
but in giving to the players n common
respect one for the other and a genu.
inc liking.
There is too little of those amenities
in foot ball which Bill Roper seems
to be trying to establish at Prince.
ton this year. Among the univer.
sites that go in for rowing it has
become the custom for one crew to
entertain rival crew. not only bv
meeting the men 1T dinner but nv

or fraternity houses and in other ways

tality.
But in, foot ball there has been the
idea that players must be kept apart,
must be fed on raw meat and lashed
INTO mood where they growl when.
ever they think of the rivals they are
to face. Small doubt the spirit OF
the Ohio Princeton game will
go a long way toward proving that
this Ia not necessary.
Years ago Alonzo Stagg devised the
idea of having teams fraternize at
dinner on the eve of foot ball game.
and he tried out the idea upon the
occasion of the visit of a Cornell
eleven to Chicago. But as Stagg tells
ii. his belief in the efficacy of his
plan suffered a severe shock when he
learned that the players Cornell sent
to the banquet were second and third
the regulars remaining
away.
Since then important foot ball
elevens have not tried the experiment:
that is not until Princeton this year
took up the custom Of having her
varsity team meet rival outfits at
the banquet table previous to doing
battle on the gridiron.

Except for that seventh round how
ever. the fight movies are not so con-
vncing TO Tunney. He has had some
experience before the screen himself

screen drama which he now admits he
would pay 100000 to get off the
market
i
i never will he. I'm through with
kidding myself about that and at
tempting to cash in either on the
stage or in the movies.
''But the one experience ] had with
the pictures convinced me how easily

although they say it never lies.
Take these fight movies. | know.
that lots of people who see them

damage. That's where the pictures
are deceiving. The picture | appeared
in called for lot of knockout wallops.
They looked like the real thing when

of fact not one solid punch was

Tunney's discussion emphasize the
idea that the motion pictures Of the
fight have furnished the perfect
"ballyhoo' for a third match between
Tunney and Dempsey. Without Tex
Rickard having lifted a single pro-
noting finger the sports world has
been swept by debate over the now
historic seventh round, an argument
just as heated as it was seven weeks
ago, the day after the conflict at Sol
dier Field.
More convincing than any word pic
lures. the movies, now escaping the
old Federal barrier on distribution
through court decisions, have carried
the detailed story of the championship
battle all over the country.
More than one expert has suggested
the pictures were "dOctored' to make
the argument livelier or show the
Dempsey angle to better advantage,
but to neutral observer this hardly
seems true or necessary. The fight
furnished enough ground for debate.

NEW YORK, November s.-Ernest
Sargent Barnard, named to succeed
Ban Johnson as president OF the
American League, probably has
speak king acquaintance with fewer
American League base ball players
than any club official
Although he has been connected
with the Cleveland club for "a years
he has spent little time In cluhholses
where personal contacts would have
resulted. Most OF his base ball busi-
ness has been transacted in the office.
He started his career in sport as a
16-year old foot ball coach and in 81
wears. by shifting his allegiance from
foot ball to base ball, has become
president Of the American League.
Termed Hard Boiled"
Barnard has been called hard
boiled" by some of his acquaintances,
hut his friends insist that he is only
fair" He never tried to make n
good fellow" OF himself, but in 25
years Of dealing with ball players
none of the athletes who paused for a
time in Cleveland and passed on enter
tanned hard feeling toward him. He
was more closely associated with Ma
pOleon LajOie than any other player
connected with the Cleveland club.

joie managed the Indians. Barnard
was still travelling with the club and
they roomed together.
Larry" has always been Barnards :
ideal when people start to talk about
the great players OF the game. Next
to La joie, Ty Cobb was the player for
whom he entertained the greatest ad-
miratiOn.
Only the fact that Barnard saw
Cobb first and was prejudiced in his
favor kept him from bracketing Iris
Speaker with him az the greatest
player" Barnard set him apart with
La ioie and Cobb as the greatest trio
he has known in the game.
Admirer Of johnson.
Barnard always has been an ad
mirer of Ban Johnson's bulldog fight
ing spirit.
AS president he may be expected
to stand firmly behind his umpires.
As Cleveland executive, Barnard
has been proud Of his record for fair
dealing.
A native Of West Columbia, w. Va,
where he was born, July II, 1874,
Barnard lived at Delaware and West
erville, Ohio, before matriculating at
Otterbein Academy in 1883.
As an undergraduate at Otterbein
College he coached the foot ball teams
from 1890 to 1894, contributing his
services. He was placed on the pay
roll when he was hired to coach the
1895 team after his graduation.
He turned to Army foot ball in 1896
and 1897 when he coached the team
OF the 18th Regiment of the Regular
