mind and stood pat on his orig

Charley Grimm also stood pat
on Bill Lee.
Cubs officials predicted the
$4,000 fans disappointed by yeSter-

hand today, and officials of both
clubs believe the city series at
tendance will set a new record.
The Sox have won Is of the
series-including the World Series

LAUREL, Md, oct. 1.-The
cream of Americas and Canada's
race horses are arriving hourly by
train and motor van for the 25-
day meeting of the Maryland
State Fair, which opens at 1870
p. m. Saturday.
Race Secretary John Purcell
Turner, ST., will offer nine stakes,
with the 5000 Capital Handicap,

lining Saturdays opening pro-
gram. This event may find George
D. Widener's Sation, winner the
past two seasons, striving for his
third consecutive victory.
Turtles visiting here this
month won't recognize the plant.
During the past summer President
Andrew j. Cummings spent close
to 100000 remodeling the place.
New stables have been built, and
it is now possible to accommodate
1,4OO horses. Free parking space
to handle 10000 automobiles, has
also been arranged for. The cleo
trical camera, which photographed
all finishes at Empire City, N. Y,
will be used throughout this meet
ing.
Electrical Board
An electrical board in the cen
terrified will show the progress OF
the first five horses at every pole.
A 50-foot press stand has been To-
Gated at the top OF the huge
grandstand; while everything has
been dressed up in new coat OF
green and white paint.
Richard Johnson, first preSl-
dent of the Maryland State Fair
and Spalding Lowe Jenkins, VINO
succeeded him, will both be hon
ored with memorial races. Both
men did much for this plant and
President Cummings and his as
sociates have struck popular
chord with TURTLES by booking
races in memory of the late presl-
dents. The johnson Will be run
october 10, with the jenkins on
October 81. Both races carry S3,oOO

topnotch riders as Sonny Work

TT never rains but it pours" might

Lawler as he sent his Mt. St.
Marys charges through a long
workout today, in preparation for
their game next Sunday with St.
Joseph's at Philadelphia.
Last Saturday the Mountaineers
disposed of one tough opponent in
the role of Davis lkins, whom
they defeated, 12-0. Their en-
counter with st. Joseph's will be
mighty obstacle in their road
toward a successful season.
Realizing the power already eX-

when they held Temple to an
1916 score, Head Coach Jo-Jo

for his charges. Included in the
work detailed for the week was

correct the faults of the team

Indications today were that
President Roosevelt will adhere to
his plan to see tomorrow's game,
moving into the Polo Grounds in
stead of the Yankee Stadium, how
ever. This has not been con-
firmed, but President Horace
Stoneham, of the Giants, said he
had reserved a box for the Pres
ident in case of just such con-
tingency.
A deficit of at least $4,000. in
receipts was caused by playing of
yesterdays game under the condi.

considerable criticism Of both
clubs and Judge Lands for going
forward with yesterdays game
under the weather conditions.
The playing of today's game
would have meant another loss
approXimating yesterdays and it
would have invited injury to the
ball players from slipping and
sliding. Too, hit balls could not
possibly bound normally on the
field today.
