By J. S. A. MACDONALD. New York, Nov. 8.—Pursuing their usual . policy of sacrificing a gnat to frighten an elephant, the Itooblah stewards of the •Jockey Club ineted out a dose of unusual • jiteverlty to Bob Rogers, owner of Garnish, last Tuesday. Rogers was ruled off the /for/ altogether with his trainer. John WU- • woo. In the race where Itadtke Is alleged ,to have pulled Tommy Waddell, Garnish I won In n gallop with certain Interests lu the betting ring playing Rogers’ horse as If It were all over but the formal Interview .with the caahlers after the finish. In round words, the stewards concluded the 'race was ti clever nnd comprehensive “shoo In” for Garnish. To make Garnish partial* larly fit for the Job, Kogera Is charged with having “doped" his horse. Hence, under the rules, Rogers and his outfit earned a life expulsion from all the race track! un der the Jurisdiction of the Jockey Club. Among the smart “insiders,” Radtko, thinking to propitiate the goda In hla favor, Is understood to have * “feaaed up” to the {Jockey Club. Thia sort of state’s evidence iwill probably save the Jockey. But what the thinking men of the turf want to (know In connection with thla uusavoryi In cident Is as to the reason why the stewards pissed over a hundred or so more flagrant 'instances of turf trickery without so much a word ot warning or the leant Inquiry ns to the circumstances of existing condi tions. only to wait to the eleventh hour of the. season and then to level their guus upon a poor nnd comparatively uuknown owner from the West. Home critics say August Belmont, chairman of the Jockey jriub, who makea at least $2,000,000 every year ont of bis New York race truck hold ings. Is much disturbed by the scandal talk In the newspapers thla past summer con cerning the coups and the smart deals of rthe bl* plungers. Afraid of Niw Laws. The np-state rural lata heard about It and • growing sentiment against racing com menced to thraeteu the stability of the • metropolitan turf and consequently Bel mont's rich yielding race track enterprises. • A atop to this grafting must he made,” the chairman of the Jockey Club la reported to rlflce In order to frighten the big evil doers. At Horn toga Inst August Fred Johnson, non of a wealthy real estate operator of the Bronx, New York, started Aeronaut, ruling nt 8 to 6, and with the public down, book, line and sinker. Perrlne gave the choice such n Jerk that he nnd the owner would have been ruled off before Aeronaut had reached the stewards' Inclosure to weigh in hud the scene been laid at the New Or leans fair grounds with Frank J. Ilryau In the stand. From that day to this nothing has been heard of the affair. The exhibition Jockey "Willie” Rbaw gave with (electioneer In the Flatbush •takes, Hnd again the mysterious form dis played by Fountalnbleu under Jockey "Jack” Martin In the same event, are today public scandaln. More than nue club house patron runs hla horses Jn»t to nult his betting Inclinations nnd regardless of the public Interests or the ethics of the sport. Hundreds of horses are "doped” every week, and the most barefaced “ahooln” are common occurrences. 8ome Mu ok-Raking. The form displayed by the horse Angler, owned by "Mattie Corbett, a big club house operator. Is another sore spot In the hide of the average regular while In the Jumping races, Buttner was openly accused In tho public press of having manipulated Ki Vuchilo in a race where the rank and Hie bettors lost thousands and thousands of dollars to this horse in a race at Brighton Beach lost July. Not n single member of (he Natlonnt Hunt and Steeple chase Association wna lu the ate wards' stand nt the time. Hence the frnmora got away with a disgraceful deni. Considering all thin, nnd more, too, the drastic treat ment of Rogers is-somewhat Inconsistent, though the crime deserves the penalty Im posed. It appears the stewards at sev eral meetings about New York aro mainly gentlemen whb serve In a "complimentary” fashion. As a matter of fact, with the exception of Chris J. Fitzgerald. Frank J. Unitn and Clarence McDowell, there Is not a single practical nnd export racing man In the stewards' stand from one season end to another. Dnlll August Ralmout decides to adopt the Western Idea of em ploying the most competent, thorough and anlmpeachahle officials available, coat what This photograph shows how successfully the Princeton .Varsity eleven works its forward pa6s. It was taken during a contest between the Varsity and scrub teams. At the extreme left the arm of E. Dillon, the Varsity quarterback, is seen as he is making tho pass. Tho ball left his hand and went to the left end, who waa going down the ends of the field with no pursuers. The brilliant work of the Princeton line is well shown in the photo graph. The Tiger forward* have to misled their opponents that the lattor, expecting the full to go down this end, have left the other side unprotected. Several Changes Possible in Southern League Circuit Homebody has sprung this “ehango-ln-tUe- Southern-League-cIroult" atory about one month and'a half too soon. It la not considered the beat form lu sporting elrelea to use that atory before the league meeting la over. What In the world nre bnacbnll writers golug to do for material during the "dead ly season" between January 1 and Febru ary 16, If all the old reliable storlra nre used up while football Is an available apace filler? However, the atory Is going the rounds. Even the Montgomery papers have taken notice of It, and It would not l>e surprising 10 Shreveport fell for it before long. If looks a bit, though, as If there might really !»• a change In tho present South ern League circuit. When a fight wna on to got Shreve port and Little Rock out of the circuit, they were both no strong for sticking that It old not look as though dynamite could blow them out of the league. When the Atlanta team waa In Little Rock In August, the writer talked the mat ter over with the hackers of tho dnh, nnd not a man of them would admit that there was any chance that Little Rock would not be represented lu the Southern League next year. But now times have changed. Howl after howl la golug up from the Arkauaas backers of the worst financial proposition In the league, nnd It looks as though tho whole bunch was ready to quit. Where Mike Cornea In. Maybe the flue Eyetslinn hand bf one M. J. “Phlnn" -might be detected nt tho bottom of thla somewhere. This exponent of radiant geniality Is on the scene. What he le doing on the scene nobody has said, but It Is Inferred that he la "laying low." This la n ehroulc occupation with Mike during the chilly periods. Alao maybe ho Is starting a bear move ment against the stock of the Little Rock club. It has been Insinuated- that Mike would like n franchise. Just why anybody should like one In Little Rock la hard for *ome of us to understand. But then, there le no accounting tor tee tee. If the present loud series of yella pushes down the price of the stock far enough. Mike may emerge from underneath n rapid buying movement with the majority of stock In his possession. But Just now tbe talk isThat Chattanooga la going,to buy a franchise, nnd it la stated with all positlvenesa that both Little Rock and Montgomery are willing to sell. That Johnny Dobbs and Hammy Strang (Nlcklln) want a Southern League franchise for Chattauooga has long been known, Sammy Strang w’rote President Kavauaugh to that effect last August, and he has not changed h>a mind. Hlnco Little Rock wnnla to sell and Chat tanooga wants to buy, there ought to be a "dicker." But if the Little Rock franchise should go to Chattanoogn, what of Shreveport? Think of the thing geographically. With Little Rook nnd Shreveport both In tbe league. It Is sometimes possible for u team which makes the trip to the “far west" to break nearly even. But with only oue town west of the Mississippi river In the league, every trip across the “big brook" would be a dead loss—and a big loss at that. One thing is practically certain—when Little Rook goes oat of the league, Shreve port goes, too. Montgomery Going? So about the euly chance for a change seems to be for Chattnuooga to buy the' Montgomery franchise. This would not shorten the Jumps much, but it might help some. It is unfortunate that there ran not be a new' baseball deal through the Sontb. If all the towns in the league could only go Iwick In the pack, be thoroughly mixed, and then let a new drawing take place It would help nn'nwful lot. As it Is, the three prominent baseball organizations of the South—I* “ -the Southern, organiznt , South Atlantic aud ... ’gC ... ... of them have cities which are too small. An arrangement which would give the Southern League all the “big towns’’ would be the best for nil. Even the smaller leagues would lie benefited by losing the towns which nre so large that they set a pace Which *' u> nfhni-n i'lln nnt fnllnw Any way, „ there may be some change* think about between the present time and the annual Southern League meetiug lu spite of the liberal handicapping of th* committee In charge, one of the “low hand! cop men," W. J. Tllson, was the wluner of the Saturday golf handicap over the f:„ s , Luke course. Mr. Tllson made the round In 92 stroke,, n phenomenally good score under lb- r / f ’ cumstsnees. The fair green was in excel lent condition, but it Is hard for those who played to talk of the alleged putting green* aud still ejlmlnntc profanity. They were ao near the “worat ever" that they could go to the ultimate limit without anybody noticing the difference. How anybody could negotiate them In less than four puts each the writer does not understand—as hi* score would seem to indicate. Sam Williams, with n handicap of ;•>. took second prize with a gross score of l® Messrs. Bro/lea, Angler and F. W. stoue tied for third place. Twenty-four players atarted In the tourna- ment and the affair was a decided sueem The prizes were a handsome caddy bng, H golf jacket and a choice collection of golf balls. -he scoring throughout was good, espc dally considering the condition of the put- ting greens. Next to Mr. Tilson’s 92 grow came W. P. IIIU, who negotiated the round In 96 strokes. All the other scores were over 100, though Jjowry Arnold, MUton liar' gan, Clarence Augler, Dr. Holland, Dr. Langston, F. \V. htone and I*. Thornton Marye were but little above that figure.

It Is the custom every year among the paper* of the country to write stories of tho major league players who have gone back, to tbe minora. It wasn't on tho regular schedule of aumutl stories, but that was through an oversight. The Boston Journal seems to have lieen tho first In the field this year, and the story from that paper, which is uuusually—though not enUrelp-accurafe, appears below: A few days ago the report went the 'rounds that the Tulane university of New Orleans waa going to leave the Southern i Intercollegiate Athletic Association nt the end of tbe present football season. It now transpires that this rumor Is not cor rect. and that Tulane Is going to stick with ibe organization which has done so much Toward giving the South pure athletics. Hero la what Will it. Hamilton haa to may about It In The New Orleans Item: "Hontlment at Tulane university on tbe ncore of withdrawing from the Houtbera Intercollegiate Athletic Association upitcars to be divided to such an extent that the declaration ot the onea that favor seers* it. The various Imputations of unfair dis crimination by the offlcera of the Bouthern Intercollegiate Athletic Association against Tulane I repudiated vigorously. Every fa vor that I have asked of the Southern In tercollegiate Athletic Association, ns chair man of the nthlftlc committee, has t»cen granted In full; every appeal that I have made to the executive committee has been fully sustained; and so I stated at the meeting. “ ‘The students who hnd stirred up the talk about withdrawing felt aggrieved that certain rules of the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association, notably the one touch ing professional baseball nnd tho one bar ring tueu who have represented sion have got the whole university lutn i Ptfe from participating In tbe athletic ,trouble.

Is In favor of re maining In the fold. “Th# atory printed in some of the new#- papers receutly to the effect that Tulane lias decided to resign from the Intercolle giate body after this season Is now said to have been premature. A number of the professors of Tulane. Including Walter Mil ler, chairman of the faculty committee on (athletics, say now that the university Is ufet thinking of withdrawing from the {.Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Associa tion, but has decided to remain In the rauks I for a year or more at any rate. Professor Miller haa contributed n long letter to the newspapers explaining the true situation. It Is admitted that a number of tbe iattldenta want to withdraw from the Inter- aaaot'iation, but they nre said to not represent the great volume of senti ment in tbe big school, and what they think Is not likely to govern the action of the college’# committee on athletics. The opposition of these students to the Houth ern Intercollegiate Athletic Association la said to have arisen from the election from ih# ranks of Joubert nnd Ivena, base-1 ball players, last year. Joubert nnd Ivcus, two of the best athletes nt the university, were ruled out of the Houthern Intercolle giate Athletic Association, It Is anbl. be cause they played professional baseball nt Centerville. Mias. Profeaaor Miller denies emphatically that be urged secession from the Houthern In tercollegiate Athletic Association.

For a number of yeara past there has been n good sprinkling of these old-timers |<g the Houtb, but many of them have pre ferred to retire from the game than drop their prestige.

Walker threw Locust Grove's quarter over for a safety, counting 2 points In Lee's favor. Outweighed by 7 pounds to the man. the game put up by Lee was a truly wonderful performance. Two diminutive quarterbacks played a star role—Hightower, for Lee, and Dreher, for Locust Grove. R. E. Lee worked the forward pass on four occasions, netting good gains. Locust Grove probably lost the ganu on forward passes, which miscarried In every Instance save one. In King. R. E. Lee has a tackle who would make a star on any college teum In the South. Captain Stewart and Captain Bell performed In grand style. Dreher, quarterback for Locust Grove, Is a craokerjack. He uses good head work, dodges like an Indian and runs like a rabbit. In the second half, by line plunges of Stewart, King, Crawford and Lewis, assisted by a forward pass and a fum bled punt, R. E. Lee carried the bull over for a touchdown. Crawford made the touchdown: Captain Stewart kicked the goal. The result of the game was a great surprise. The game was practically conoededi to Locust Grove.
