Running Off of Big Motor Classic Not to Be Known Until This

Morning

Milwaukee, Wis., Sept. 21 Race officials and motoring enthusiast.-, on the eve of thi rutiritnc of the historic Vaniierbilt cup automobile' race, almost gave up hope of seeing the contest. Continued rainy -weather, which alre;iy has broken all records for September in the last fifteen years at the local weather bureau, has made the Wauwatnsa race course so soft that it has become dangerous. Fven with fair weather today it is a serious question whether the course ran be put in condition to warrant the sturtina of the Vanderbllt race. The waiting thousands found little consolation in the weather predictions issued last night. Thes were for "colder and unsettled weather." Officers of the Milwaukee Automobile Dealers' associaton. officials of the American Automobile association and the drivers and owners of cars entered in the race held repeated conferences last night in efforts to hit upon some scheme that will prevent further postponements of the racing program, which in the week has been delayed twice by rain.

Sixteen football candidates turned out for the first practice of the seauon at Northwestern university yesterday afternoon and were put through three hours of hard work by Coach Hammelt. Not for many years has such a lot of heavy material been seen at Northwestern as appeared yesterday. Coach Hammett had expected at

;loom as thick as the fog that hung

over the lake front and the Milwaukee

river settled down on the crowds of race visitors at the downtown hotels last night. The question of the

wtather seemed to be the sole topic

under discussion.

After the Pabst and Wisconsin, tronhv races for small and medium cars

had been postponed today until Tues

div because of the condition of the

course, it was Intimated that the Vaniierbilt race might be run off Sunday. The officials in charge of the meeting, however, issued an announcement in which it was said that the Vanderbilt event would be run off today unless a heavy rain occurred. Some of the drivers gave It as their opinion that the heavy cars entered in the contest would wear the course into extremely hazardous condition before one-half of the scheduled 296 miles had been raced. Others were more optimitlc and said they believed the course would stand up under the terrific grind providing it was baked by a hot sun this morning and also providing there was no more rain.

New York. Sept. 21. Peevishness

' among the Cubs was evident Jusf nfter the Brooklyn had trimmed them. 9 I to 5. in the first game of the ioubl 1 header at Washington park Thursday. 1 As they realized that victory had been tossed any and they could not solve Knetier. the Dodgers' relief pitcher, during the last four innings, the Ohicairos crowded and snarled ut one nn-

least twice as many men, and hopes other unm thpfp was n warfarp on that the others will be out this after- ; thHr Dpnrh ArC()riHng to the story noon- circulated After the trouble. Tinker, Although It wa the first practice of who ls ac()nff mar,aPf.r ,n the absence the season, Coach Hammett worked of Frank chance, had a fist fight with the men hard and then had them run .

a mile before turnlnn In. The backs spent most of the afternoon In prac- i tlcing the forward pass, and In puntlng, after which Coach Hammett put the mthrough some Rlgnal practice, ' Werts and Wells were each given a ;

trial at full back. I.amke, the star half back of last season, and Oruhn, who played full back last year, were put t right and left half back, respectively. Werts Is looked upon by the conch as the punter of the team. Hightower. who played quarter back with the freshmen last year, was tried at this position yesterday. Fish, a new man from the law department, who weighs over 2"'0 pounds, and puts fifty and sixty yards, was tried at guard. Roy Young, assistant coach, spent u 1 1 his time yesterday in drilling the line. ' i

This afternoon the men will be given practice in tackling the dummy, and early next week will begin regu- , lar scrimmage.

HARVARD PRACTICE CUT SHORT TODAY Cambridge, Mass., Sept. 21. The Harvard football practice today was very quiet. The morning session lasted but a short time and was devoted almost, wholly to rehearsing of signals. In the afternoon the men practiced falling on the ball. There were eight candidates out for the back field position. Felton and Hardwlch gladdened the hearts of Coach Haughton and Captain Wendell by some clever punting. They also tried drop kicking and showed good form. No attempt was made at scrimmaging to

day, but if the weather is cooler tomorrow Coach Haughton will probably divide thu squad irto elevens and give the hoys their first test of hard work.

New York, Sept. 21. "In my opinion, boxing as at present conduct, 1 is a perfectly legitimate sport. All the contests were conducted humanely." Sheriff Harburger, as peace officer of the county of New York, thus gave boxing under the Frav) y liw a clean hill of health In a letter addressed today to Gov. IHx. replying to a rei . nt communication from the governor Inquiring whether "prize fights" wire being allowed.

CHANCE, CURED, CAN GET BACK INJTHE GAME New York. Sept. 21 That Frank Chance would never be able to participate in another game was emphatically denied today by Or. V. ( J. Pralick, who recently performed a serious operation for the removal of a growth from the head. "Mr. fhance." said the doctor, "is doing splendidly and I think he will be able to see his friends for the first time next Monday. He is the best patient I have ever had. His ideal temperament, hts great constitution and wonderful display of gameness has Impressed me more than any other man I have ever come in contact with." Tbat Chance, although suffering recent pain, had planned to postpone the

operation till after the close of the baseball season, became known today for the first time. "When I first saw Chance," said Dr. Fralick, "and told him an immediate operation was necessary, he said he would not consent to It until I had promised him faithfully that he would recover in time to take part In the baseball fight now drawing to a close, and If he was unsuccessful in winning the league pennant, that he would be strong enough to take part in the proposed series between tne two Chicago teams. I told him he would be able to take part in everything he asked. He told me to go ahead and operate. "Mr. Chance from now on will never again suffer from the severe pnins In the head which have troubled him for several yeears. The cause of these pains has been removed. His puis

and heart are normal now for the first time since he w; s injured."

seventh anrl was succeeded on the slah

by another Joe, answering to the surname of Roehing, who declined to yield any tallies. The Senators touched " Clcotte for eight hits and that was all the Whit.; Sox could get off the pair of Joes, but Fddle used greater discrimination in his selection of the places to allow hits. Not until the locals had the game rewed up could the visitors get more than one hit at a time. Three of them were bunched in the seventh for the lone Senatorial tally.
