New York, Sept. 12.—Football for the
■eason of 1906 makes Its appearance
today with a few contests among minor
colleges. The big universities will not
fall Into line until a week or so later.
The football rules In their revised form
are to be given their first practical test
and coaches, players and the general
public are waiting to tee what the sea
son will bring forth. It Is certain that
about everything has been done along
ethical lines to Improve the great col
lege sport, and the aeaaon> play should
be clean and fair. •
In summing up the outlook of the big
teams of the East, It may be said that
they ore on more even terms at the
start than they were a year ago. All
of the "Big Five” have lost several
veterans, but the losses are almost
•qually severe In each case, rale and
Harvard are the heaviest losers, whllo
the prospects at the Unverslty of Penn
sylvania, Princeton and Cornell are
reported unusually bright.
Columbus, Ohio, 8ept. 22.—Sweet Marie,
the greatest trotter Ip training today,
broke the record of the Columbus course
yesterday when she trotted n tulle, pared
by n runner but tumbled by n wind shield.
In 2:02. The fractional time was :30, :29%.

New York, kept. 22.—In the nastiest spill
of the year at Metropolitan trneks, .Jockey
Frelshon was Instantly killed, and Jotkey
Boss suffered a fracture of his skull.
The accident Imppened in the fifth race,
when Joe l.ovy, ridden by Frelshon, fell.
Sonoma Bell, Cl. Burns up, stumbled on top
of Joe Levy, l-ouls II, with Boss up,
went Into the two horses and two Jock
eys which were already down, and it was
tills horse that killed Frelshon. Boss'
skull was fractured as ho fell.

New York, Sept. 22.—Ernest Keeler,
bent low over the^ steering wheel of a
big 45-horse-power Olds machine,
passed over the starting line of the
Vanderbilt cup course on the stroke of
6 o’clock this morning and the elimina
tion races for American cars was be
gun. A great cheer went up from the
grand stand, where men and women of
tho ’*400” were gathered, as a plucky
driver with his machinist, Harry Mul
ler, hugging him dose, whizzed down
tho beautiful nt retch nt oiled turn
pike and was lost to view In the early
twilight and mist.
Before the men nnd women in the
grand stand bad time to turn from
looking after Keeler a second chugging
gave wnmlng thnt another of the great
machines was breaking out from the
Une-up. In another Instant, the rua-
chine spitting fire, Herbert B. Little,
driving a 120-horse-power Pope-Tole-
do, shot past the grand stand nnd
started in mud pursuit of Keeler. In
rapid succession the other entrants
flashed by until all were thundering
around the course at terrifying speed,
and the great race was In full progress.
Just before the beginning of the race
the representatives of the Maxwell-
Briscoe C’ompnny, who had entered the
35-horse-power Maxwell car, an
nounced that "Wally” Owen bad been
withdrawn. This left only 12 cars in
the race. .
Willis on Hand.
W. K. Vanderbilt and Mrs. Vander
bilt left their summer homo at Lake
Success At one end of the course long
before daybreak and started In Mr.
Vanderbilt’s big Mercedes touring car
with the young millionaire at the wheel
for the grand stand at Westbury.
. Mr. Vanderbilt made the run to West
bury over the roads of the course In
almost record time. Upon reaching the
grnnd stand he left Mrs. Vnnderbllt
there nnd then started off wit
chauffeur and one of the members of
the racing board over the cup race
course.
# Mongini s Hero.
A real burst of applause greeted Mon-
glnl when he reached the starting line
seated In his 60-horse-power car. Mon
gini sprained his wrist badly several
days ago during the practice spin and
the injury’ became so bad last night
nnd early today that C. A. Singer, w ho
entered the car, offered to withdraw
his entry, but Mongini Insisted on go
ing into the race.
The determined fellow’s wrist was
bandaged as he held the wheel, but It
ould be seen .that he was still suffer
ing from pain.
I)r. Finn, of Garden City, looked
Mongini over Just before the start In
the contest and gave him one more in
jection of morphine to mitigate his
suffering.
All during the night the pain in
Monglnt's wrist was severe. Repeated
Injections of morphine were necessafy.
Some Gay Incidents of
The Elimination Trials
New York, Hept. 22.-a^Ii*s Mllllccnt Tay

marry Tracy hi case he won the Vnndertdlt
cup elimination trials, furnished much of
the fiiiiusuiueiit In connection with the race.
As Trney bolted, past Mlsa Taylor, who
was In one of the front boxes, she Jumped
from her chair, wnved her nnns wildly and
shouted until she was hoarse. All tho
grandstand cheered her nnd her fiance.

Two of these cans of oil are ready to pass

the lubricant.
Ajt the uinii passed the first can to Plug-
ley he lifted It too high nnd dashed It Into
the mechanician's face. With a gasp, Ding-
Icy sank hack into tils seat, apparently
overcome. But with a prodigious effort
he recovered himself, knowing that In an
other second he would have to gniyi the
second can of oil. He did so and fainted,
hut was nfforward revived.
When tlie racers had gone nearly four
laps nround the course the clouds, which
hnd boeu threatening, broke and n heavy
rnin fell, making the already slippery road
nil the more dangerous.
Many of the people In the grandstand be
ing without wraps fled, hut W. K. Vander
bilt, Jr.'s, party, in the box facing roe
starting line, remained.
Mrs. Vanderbilt borrowed her httsband’s
rubber coat.
During the wait In the sixth lap, while
the crowd was killing time for the cars to
sweep past the grandstand, William K.
Vanderbilt and Horry Payne Whitney
amused everybody with their horse play.
Vnnderbllt, who was In his box, leaped
to 4he rnll preparatory to crossing to the
officials’ stand on the other side of the
track.
Whitney selxcd him nnd the pair strug
gled until Vanderldit wns sent stumbling
to tlie floor, overturning two chairs, and
there was a good-natured wrestling match
between them when Vanderbilt got to his
feet. Finally he broke away and went out
ou the track.
In a few minutes Vnndertdlt got his re
venge, for Announcer Prouty appeared with
his megaphone and roared: “By special re
quest. Mr. Harry Payne Whitney will bow
■lug ‘Please Give Me a Drink, Bartender.’ ’’
Everybody laughed ami Mr. Whitney

famous old chorus and when Mr. Whitney
did not respond It switched into "Waltlug

Gather at the Curve.
"Hair Pin Curve," one of the most
dangerous turns on the course, wae the
gathering place of hundreds of private
cars. Shortly after midnight they be
gan to arrive and there waa much
maneuvering and Jockeying for advan
tageous positions. At the moat peril
ous point of the curve in stationed a
telegraph pole, which, during the tun
ing-up trials of the auto racers 1ms
brought more than one driver to grief.
The curve runs through the center
of an open space about a hundred yards
square. As the automobiles chugged
up to the spot, they formed two banks
on either side of the Course. Hundreds
of automobiles were driven here be
cause they could not secure accommo
dations.
All night long the Westbury hotel
was besieged by applicants for rooms,
but the hostelry had been sold out the
night before. Farm houses In the vi
cinity were appealed to, but these, too,
were crowded from kitchen to garret.
So the sight-seers had to content
themselves with camping out all night
In their machines, lap robes and cush
ions serving to make them comforta
ble until they were awakened by the
ignal indicating the start of the race.
In the Vanderbilt box In the grand
stand Mrs. Vanderbilt was joined by
J. L. Breeze. Mrs. Vanderbilt was
dressed In black with a black straw’
Young Mr. Vanderlfflt had left off
his automobile toggery* and was dressed
In a dark sack suit. He had his gog
gles up over his forehead as he started
around the course In his touring car
with his soft hat pushed back on his
head.
E. R. Thomas, who was also in a box
In the grand stand, offered to bet $500
against an even $1,000 that one of the
three Thomas cars which he has en
tered will finish first In the eiimlna-
tory trials. The betting odds on the
Thomas entries Just before the race
was at even money.
Weather it Bed.
The weather conditions before the
start were unfavorable and disagree
able. The wind was eAst with a strong
feeling of rain In the air. A mist hung
over the course and many women who
had camped out in their machines over
night shivered beneath their wraps as
they huddled In the corners to the ton
neaus.
Before daybreak the sights In the
zone at various points along the 29-
mile course were weird and strange.
Automobiles driven by members of the
racing .board and by hundreds of the
visitors to the great races, ablaze with
their brilliant lanterns, flashed by along
the roads like so many demons of the
night.
All the "Whlzz-Whlzz" machines
were here, there and everywhere; those
not speeding from place to place along
the course were bankd along the va
