manifold. This new carburetion means in- creased engine efficiency easier, quicker starting in cold weather.
 The wheelbase of the New Ford is ll2 inches This means more than it says-a longer wheelbase is not always more pas senger room. The V-type engine takes less space, leaves more inside body room. It is not the length of the wheelbase that counts, but the available passenger space.
 Ride in this New Ford V-8 for 1884 and see for yourself what it can do. You will find it the most completely satisfying car you have ever driven regardless of price. And the most economical too.

MIR. AND MRS. NICK IBAVARD RETURN FROM VACATION TRIP SOUTH

Nick Bavard, of the California Grocery store, and Mrs. Bavard, returned on the steamer Yukon from months vacation trip in the south. They visited friends and relatives in Seattle, Portland and Vancouver, B. c. while they were away.
 Conditions seem to be improv- ing generally and everywhere one finds that the public is fully in sympathy with President Roosevelt's s program to- restore prosperity" MT Bavard said. Good liquor is very scarce and is beyond the reach of most purses. Although blended whiskey can be bought for as low as SIPS for a full pint, real Amer ican whiskey is hard to procure for $7O0 pint" he declared.
 Both MT and Mrs. Bavard ex- pressed themselves as being de- lighted to be home again.

P|ML|CO TRACK
OPENS SEASON
TOMORROW

= PIMLICO, Md, Oct. 30.-The ,
curtain will be raised tomorrow
on the fall racing season here.
The star performers have arrived,
and are settled in their room quar-A
ters on the grounds, while the
overflow is cared for at Timonium.
The scene Of their endeavors
has been thoroughly overhauled
with fresh paint everywhere ap-
parent, new roofing over the
barns back Of the grandStand, a
track that has been narrowed to
the pink Of perfection, and a
SteeplechaSe course that is second
to none.
New Board Attracts
Especial attention has been paid
to the electrically operated tote
and odds board. which are as &C.
curate as human hands and
minds can make them, and are
as quick in action as the eye can
follow.
The pari-mutuel manager, Nor
timer M. Mahony, who has been
away all summer at distant
tracks, will be personally in b.,
charge of this department with
his picked crew of experienced
men, and ample opportunity will
be afforded those speculatively in
cIned to back their selections.
Pimlico is fortunate in its
choice of dates, which run from
October 81 to November IA, in
elusive, as within this period OF
13 racing days are two Saturday
half-holidays, election day, and
Armistice Day, while competition
with other tracks in the East is
almost negligible.
This means that the best horses,
and most prominent stables, will
take part in the meeting, and
horse lovers from all over the
country will be in attendance.
First Race, 1880 p. M.
Eight races, including a steeple-
chase, are on the daily program,
and the first race starts at 1880
p. M, giving ample time to finish
the card before dark. The steeple-
chase will be run as the first race
each day.
The stakes to be decided and
dates of running are the Walden
Handicap for 2-year-olds, 81 500
added, one mile and a sixteenth,
November 3; the Baltimore Handi-
cap, all ages, $4,000 added. six
furlongs, November 6; the Riggs
Handicap, 3-year-olds and upward,
81 500 added, one mile and three
sixteenths, November 10; the Pim-
lico Handicap, 2-year-olds, $2,50O
added, six furlongs, November IL.
No purse is less than $500, and
races valued from $1,000 to 81 500
will be given each day.

ON BLOCK

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 80.
Gerry Nugent, president of the
Phillies, today refused to confirm
or deny reports that Dick Bartell
and AL Toddy. stars of the 1894
Phils, have been traded.
Nugent, however, admitted that
a deal was in progress and hinted
that Pittsburgh and Boston, as
well as the Giants, were bidding
for ShortStop Bartell.
The Bartell deal has been hang.
ing fire ever since the world
series. The swapping of Bartell
to the Giants in exchange for a
bupdle Of cash, Johnny Vergez,
Blondy Ryan, and either Hank
Leiber or Phil Weintraub has
been predicted for weeks.
On the other hand, the report
that Catcher Todd will 60 to

not even been given any public
notice. Both swaps await only
the annual meetings to make

dox. The bowl is so big and
the team looks so small. The
bowl was only q little better than
half filled Saturday, and when
the Yale team first appeared,
I remember wondering to myself
how they expected those little
fellows to draw enough people
to fill all that vast space.
Somehow it seemed like ask
ing Midget Wolgast and Baby
Arizmendi to pack the Madison
Square Garden Bowl for a six
round bout.
admit that no college foot
ball team these days looks as
big and impressive to me as the
college teams of Is years ago
did. The years have taken care
of that. Heroes don't look as
heroic, buildings don't look as
tall. Collar ad boys don't look
as handsome. musical comedy
choruses as intriguing, big auto
mobiles as shiny, and blondes as
blonde, either. Which is a ter
rible situation to be in up at
Yale or anywhere else.
But I have seen Yale teams
for which the big concrete and
sod-banked bowl under West
Rock, still perhaps the most
picturesque stadium in this
country, formed the perfect
setting.
Somehow it did not dwarf
the Kemptons, the Milsteads, the
Malorys, the Sturnahans, the
Sturms, the Stevenses, the
Ponds, the Richardson's, the
Galatians, the Hobans.
Getting Younger
It is true, no doubt, that
college boys are getting younger
and less mature and possibly
smaller with each passing scho-
lastic year. But it doesn't
stand to reason that they are
getting smaller any faster at
Yale than at Princeton, or
Minnesota. or Stanford.
The athletic authorities at
Yale will announce shortly that
after 1885, they are returning to
Harvard as Yale's final op.
ponent of the football season.
Which is a none-too-gentle snub
for Princeton, but may in the
end prove blessing in disguise.
Princeton, like Yale, needs
plenty of potatoes to keep its
athletic plant running. You
can't buy Palmer House rolls for
the boys who play in Palmer
Stadium with rain-checks, you
know.
And it must be pretty obvious,
even to the little boy down there
at the foot of the class, that you
are not going to get many pota-
toes playing with team against
which you can call your shots.
Surely only the most pro-
nounced miSanthrope, the sort
of guy who pulls the wings from
butterflys, would set out will
fully to see such a shambleS as
that in which Princeton and
Cornell engaged last Saturday.
Talk of tradition all you
please. It's a grand thing and
I like it. Traditional football
games are my favorites. But all
the tradition of the ages will
not do as much at the turn.

night when two-fiSted Mike kid"

protege. makes his District debut
in the scheduled 10 round main
event of Promoter Joe Turner's 81
round benefit boxing card.
Sponsored by The Washington

the receipts derived from this
show will be turned over to the
widow and three children Of Allen
B. Wilson, local newspaper route
agent who recently fell an inno-

Champ Of Italy
Welterweight champion Of
Italy and a pronounced hit since
invading these shores, Frattini
accompanied Locatelli in his pill
grimage to the United States en-
route from italy. A rabid admirer
of clouting Cleo, Frattini not
only has emulated Locatelli's
fighting style, but is considered
by many an even greater prospect
than is his fellow countryman
whose amazing stands against
Tony Canzoneri stamped him as
outstanding overnight.
Boosting a grand total of 40
decisions. II knockouts and nine
draws as against only two re-
versalS druing his picturesque ca
reer, the 23-year-old Frattini has
more than made good in the
United States. losing only one
bout (this via split decision)
since leaving his homeland. His
lone defeat was a roundly-pro-
tested duke awarded Bobby
Pacho (conqueror of Tony Falco
and author of a draw with Harry
Dublinsky). Although Pacho won
a 2-to-1 vote in this bout, New
York newspapers differed radi-
cally, a great majority conceding
Frattini shade.
A recent draw with the high
ranking Andy Callahan and wins
over Tommy Romano, Cocoa Kid,
frankie Petrolle and frankie
(Kid) Bruno, to mention a few,
have been the high lights Of
Frattini's American invasion to
date, the Italians fierce fighting
and refusal to back water having
featured in every instance.
Entitled to Win
Though officially awarded a
draw in his bout with Callahan,
young Frattini (Florio claims)
was entitled to a clean-cut de-
cision.

demanded.
"Well, let's see. I had a drive,

four puts. I guess you won
the hole" replied Smith, who
knows all the answers.
what win give yOu?" said
Griff as he fixed this CORE
spOndent' with accusing finger.
Harris for manager" we re-
piled in . moment Of studied
fOrgetfulness.
"COnfine yourself to golf"
snapped Griffith. Il meant
how many strokes"
"Give me one less than you,
and be sure you don't reverse
the Scores" we replied. "And
since you're asking questions,
who will be your manager"
I'm not going to announce
my choice for manager until
just before we go to the winter
meetings in New York." Grif-
fifth said as we walked through
the crisp air"
His eyes snapped in the pleasure
of the game. His face touched by
the nipping wind was bronze. His
eyes looked blacker t!san usual,
contrasting sharply with his silver
hair.
"NO hurry yet, and I'll make
the right move when the time
comes. 1 will consider all the
men who are eligible, but 1 will
make my own choice" he said.
'What about Ruth?" / asked.
''Never figured him." said
Griffith, and in his voice was an
air Of finaity. wherefore, we
allowed the matter to drop and
returned to business Of trying
to make poorly hit msShie niblic
shots hold the green.
Although Griff refuses to drop
the slightest hint as to his choice
for manager, men who have
studied the local baseball public
are certain that there can be only
one choice, and that is Harris. It
is true many fans complained
about the black-haired Bucky prior
to the end of his contract here,
but that was long time ago.
Odd Case
There Is a general feeling of
sympathy with Bucky over the
way his case was handled in
Boston. For a long time it was
known that Harris was not get
ting along any too well in the
Hub, but when he left there this
fall, he thought that everything
had been adjusted.
Perhaps the chief cause of
Harris trouble with the Red Sox
was that he insisted upon being
manager. With three spots in
his infield weak; two pitchers of
whom much was expected failing
to produce, and an unsettled out
field, Harris did a good job in
holding the Red Sox in the first
division.
Give Harris a team Of the
same potential power as the one
that started the season here last
year, steer him clear Of accidents,
and he will do all right.
