The week ham been most discouraging to EH supporters of Tech. Of the three veterans who turned up for regular practice. Ram Bol»erts wan forced to leave on account of Illness, and only Lock and Sweet remain.

A fair number of new men are out, but what sort of players they will develop Into time nloue will show. It Is nil up to Couch Heismnn, the Wla- nrd of tlm Pig Skin. He has one of the hardest tasks of his career, that of ham mering a first-claw* team out of raw ma terial. Tech has an ambitious oehedule this year, nnd It means much to local football that the squad make s good showing. With the second best team In the Southern lutcrcollegfafe Athletic Association Inst year, It looked last winter as though n good team was u certainty for this year, hut now things giro different. Local football enthusiasts are counting on Coach Heismnn to get more out of his men under the new rules thnn any of the olive conches, and are Imping for the best. In spite of the diseouraglng reports which are emanating from the Tech »t league, the Seal- efeuted I.«»* Angeles by the scores uf 2 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of the Maxwell- Briscoe C’ompnny, who had entered the 35-horse-power Maxwell car, an nounced that "Wally” Owen bad been withdrawn.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 lor, the young Indy wTm has promised to 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. Dtngley, I.yttie’s mechanician, showed a hit of grim heroism on the third lap. the Pope-Toledo car was passing the garage the company hud built nt Bulla Head, one of the attendants stood ready with n can of oil for Dlngley as the machine passed Two of these cans of oil are ready to pass to Diitglc.v each time the ear pusses the Pope-Toledo garage in order thnt a hot box can he avoided through a liberal use of 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 lumped up on a chair, bowed right nnd jeff. The band started a few bars of the famous old chorus and when Mr. Whitney did not respond It switched into "Waltlug nt the Church,” which overyl>ody sang. course was at the northeast turn at East Norwich. This is one of the dan gerous points of the course, and here somewhat back from the road, but on both sides, were grouped several auto- mobljes filled with men and women. The grand stand at Westbury began filling fully an hour before the time scheduled for the^start of tho race.

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 rious turns where most of the exciting incidents of the race were expected to Occidental Handicap Will Bring Out High Class Bunch By J. 8.
