1UJTCE&S PICKED
TO .BEAT TIGERS
IN ANNUAL FRAY
''Vince" Stevenson Declares
I Princeton Line Can't
I Withstand Backs
i i - i i
CONTEST ON TOMORROW
By VINCENT M. STEVENSON
For 85 years Prlncaton and Rutgers have
fceen meeting on the gridiron, with the
Tigers always the winner. Nver In the
history of the
dniei between
the e two New
Jertcy institutions
has Rutgers Rono
Into the annual
battle as the fa
vorite, but I am
Inclined to believe,
after looking the
two teams over,
that rrlnceton will
be beaten In the
annual game to
morrow. To my way of
thinking, rrince
ton's only chanco
lies In the weath
er and ovcranxlety
of the Itutgers
eleven. There Is
little comparison
between the two
V M. BTKVHNSON teams as they
stand today, rrlnceton Is green and Is
under an entirely different coaching sys
tem than has been used in the past. I
believe that the Tigers will come fast
toward tho end of the season, as Hush,
the new coach, appears to be working on
the proper lines, but they are far from
strong now.
Cooney Is one of tho best lino coaches
In the country, and hnd ho been on hand
at all the practices I think the rrlnceton
line would not bo so far behind form,
but he has not been on the field often
and the line shows It
On the other hand, Itutgers has been
practicing steadily since early In August
and Is In November form for an October
game.
RUTOERS CRITICISED.
There Is some Inclination to crltlclso
Itutgers for unsportsmanlike spirit In
taking an unfair advantago of the Tigers,
and tho fcclltig appears to be general at
Princeton that this will be Rutgers' last
year on the Princeton schedule. It is
barely possible that Princeton, In the
event of a defeat this fall, will likewise
prepare early for the Itutgers game nuxt
season and give the New Brunswick col
legians one crushing defeat and then
8ever athletic relations.
Now to get to tho two teams ns they
stand today and for my reasons in think
ing that the Tigers are due to go down
to defeat. In the first place, Rutgers,
with the advantage of tho extra month of
practice. Is further advanced than
Princeton. It, also has more seasoned vet
erans and more natural football ability.
Ruth's material is mostly green, in fact
Is so far from being of big collego calibro
that I wonder Just what method was used
In coaching the freshman team last year.
The backtleld should come along in good
shapo. although the lack of weight will
be a severe handicap until the lino starts
to show, and there is little prospect of
the lino developing for three weeks at
least.
LINE POSSIBILITIES.
The best of the Tigers' lino prospects
at the present time are Gennert and Scm
mons, centres; Hogg and Love, guards,
and McLean, Halsey and Kauffmnn,
tackles. Tho former is light, but ho Is
fast and a great fighter, but Semmons
appears to have better possibilities, as ho
Is an ideal man to play a roving centre,
lie is big and strong, has great speed,
and s also a fine tackier. I would not
be surprised If Gennert were shifted to
end In the future. At the present time
pemmons has a bad knee, and Gennert
will be needed as substitute centre until
the big fellow gets Into shape.
Rush Is well pleased with the showing
of the backtleld to date. Gllck looks much
better at halfback than he did at quar
ter, and he is likely to be one of tne
tars of the year. Drlggs Is a fine, all
round back, being one of tho best kickers
In the EaBt, while Lamberton Is also a
powerful player who has the needed ex
perience. Quarterback Is the only backneld posi
tion that Is worrying Rush. Ames Is tho
choice for the position for the Rutgcrs
Kama, but, with Haas and Eddy showing
bettor every day, he Is likely to be re
placed before long. Ebberatadt, tho for
mer Exeter player who ran the team in
the closing minutes of the Yale game lasi
year, Is due to be with tho squad soon,
and he will probably bo the regular
quarterback. He appears to know more
than the rest of the quarterback candi
dates, and his generalship should be
worth more than the Individual ability nf
his rivals.
But flth tl)ls line-up of green men and
a. badly coached line, the Tigers liavo
but ope chance to stave off defeat at the
hand 'of' Rutgers. Their greatest chance,
aside from weather, lies in superior auh
Btltutes,and a lack of generalship that
may result from Foster Sanford's deter
mination to make mass plays the feature
of his offense.

TWO NEW MEMBERS
OF SCHOOL BOARD
Alexander Simpson, Jr., nnd
Thomas S. Boyle Named
by Judges
Alexander Simpson, Jr., and Thomas' H.
Boyle wero today appointed by the Hoard
of Judges to (111 two places on the Hoard
of Hducatlon. These vacancies were
caused by the death of William T. Tilden
and the failure of the board to reappoint
John Hurt to the board.
Mr. Hoyle Is a supporter of the Vares,
and Is the man who called on Congress
man Vare with a petition, asking him to
run for Mayor.
It was predicted that Mr. Burt would
not be re-elected and this was attributed
to the fact that about three years ago he
bolted from the Vare camp nnd has slnco
been active In opposing Vare policies.
The failure of the Board to reappoint
him and the naming In his place an out
and out Vare man Is Attributed to be
directly due to Vare Influence.
Alexander Simpson, Jr., la law partner
of Attorney General Francis Hhuuk
Brown and counsel for the County Com
missioners. He Is an alumnus of tho Cen
tral High Sthool, has been nctlve In the
afialrs of. that school nnd has shown In
terest In educational affairs.
Mr. Simpson was suggested for n place
on tho board several years ago when
there wero several vacnucles on tho
board, but this plnco wns filled by tho
election of John Wanamakcr.
Despite the agitation for the election
of several women, the board decided that
mo vacancies should bo filled by men.
Tho names of two women. Dr. Ruth Web
ster Lothrop, of the Woman's Medical
College, nnd Mrs. Edwin C. Grlce, presi
dent of tho Homo nnd School League,
were considered,
Henry R. Edmunds, president of the
Board of Education, wns re-elected for a
term of six years, ns were tho following
members: William Rowen, Franklin
Smcdley and Edwin Wolf.
PASKERT LAUGHS
AT HIS DETRACTORS
Continued from Vase One
I'll show In tho world's scries that I will
hit Just as well ns he docs, nnd I will
cover Just as much ground In the field.
He may be a better ballplayer than I am,
but he's got to show mo first. I know
those Boston batters better than he
knows our fellows, becnuse they can hit
only In certain places, while there Isn't
a man on our club that can't hit equally
well to right, left or dead centre fields,
no matter whether he bats right-handed
or left."
This belief of Taskcrt's that he Is going
to play better than a man who Is rated
by some ns tho greatest player In the
world Is the typical attitude of the Phllly
players. They nre not In the least "stuck
up" or "cockcy" about It either. But
there Is In the club as n whole and In
tho Individuals of the team a deep-rooted
confidence which nothing but final defeat
can shake.
Paskert has good grounds, too, for his
confidence in his own ability and In his
ability to better Trls Speaker on the tilt
ing ground here and In Philadelphia. Ho
always has been and Is today Just as
good n fielder so far as fly balls are con
cerned as Speaker.
It Is true that Speaker has the knack of
cutting down extra base hits to singles
which Dodo has not developed. At the
8amo time there are few hits in a world's
series which aro either not singles or
which would be extra base clouts on any
fielder that ever played the game, pos
sibly excepting the crafty McCarty of old.
Johnny Evers, who Is staying at the
Cobley Squnre Hotel, where the Phillies
are, predicts a victory for Moran's men
in the world's series. Johnny doesn't
mako himself conspicuous here by any
means, but he Is seen frequently In the
lobby with his wife and 4-ycar-oId boy,
John, Jr. Here is what he had to say
today about the Thlllles' chances: "You
cun't expect me to feel very happy Just
now, because we thought surely we were
to tepcat and win the pennant again
this year. But I will say this about the
world's series: Tho Phillies ought to
beat the Red Sox easily. I figure that
with Alexander In three times and with
Chalmers, McQuillan, Demaree and
Mayer tho Phillies have a pitching Btaft
which is Just as good if not better than
the Red Sox.

LAUREL RACE SEASON

First Race
LAUREL, Md.. Oct. l.-Laurel Park,
which opened today, certainty presented
an Inviting appearance. Its new coat of
fresh paint, Bet off by blooming plants
and tho greenest of new brush, lu an un
mistakable reminder of the many Im
provements that have taken place in the
last few years under the present man
agement. The track proper is as fine a.
bit of natural racing ground as there Is
In the country, and, with the care and
attention which It has received of late
seasons, it Is now without a superior.
Ample provisions were made for the
handling of the crowds which came from
Washington, Baltimore, Philadelphia and
New York. Separate platforms for those
arriving from different points eliminate
congestion both upon arrival and depar
ture from the track, this In Itself being
a comfort thoroughly appreciated by
racegoers.
Ever since Colonel Winn and his asso
ciates assumed control there has been a
constant improvement of the racing prop
erty in Its every department. While the
comfort of the horsemen and their
charges, who, after all, furnish the enter
tainment, has been well looked after,
Colonel Winn has not failed to make the
place beautiful In a horticultural way.
The Inaugural dash for three-year-olds

by Pullux, in light, at 100 pounds. Islrose,

FROM ANNAPOLIS
Alexander Russell Boiling" Dis
missed FVom Naval Academy

Alexander Russell Dolling, son of Dr.
lioberi 11. Boiling, of $705 Ocrmantnwn
avenue, with five of his classmates, has
been dismissed from tne United States
Naval Academy by Secretary of the
Navy Daniels, accused of hating, accord
ing to dispatches from Washington today.
Doctor Dolling said today that he knew
-of his son'it dismissal, and expected the

tho list, and made last-hour registration
apparently easier than registration on tho
days specified by law.
The pink petition makes It possible for
electors to pay their poll tax after tho
last registration day, and have their
names added to tho registration lists If
they have not paid a poll tax at any time
during tho two years previous. Citizens
who have become naturalized since the
last registration day can also register
through the pink petition.
The change In the election laws was an
nounced and tho pink petitions wero dis
tributed to Organization workers nt a
meeting of the Republican City Commlt
teo held this afternoon at the commit
tee's headquarters, 11th and Chestnut
streets.
It was nnnounced at the meeting that
the commUteo had arranged to have tho
ofllco of the Receiver of Taxes In City
Hall remain open until 9 o'clock tomorrow
night so that electors can purchnse poll
tnxes up until that hour. The Board of
Registration Commissioners, it was an
nounced, will hear the petitions on
October 13. Tomorrow Is Just 30 days be
fore the election, the last day under the
law for paying a tax to entitle an elector
to a vote.
VARE'S URGENT PLEA.
Congressman William S. Vare explained
in a short address that the McNIchol
chango in tho law made It possible for
any one not registered to pay his poll
tax tomorrow and be registered on Mon
day by filing his petition with the Reg
istration Commissioners.
The Organization's need of votes was
confessed by Congressman Vare, when
he told the members of the committee
that they should add 0000 names to the
lists by means of the pink petitions.
The South Philadelphia Congressman
urged, tho Organization men to make a
thorough canvass of the men who voted
for George D. Porter in the primary. In
an effort to get them to vote the straight
Republican ticket in November. He con
cluded with a repetition of hla plea that
an Organization victory In Philadelphia
this fall would be a forerunner of a na-
tonal Republican victory in 1516.
COMMITTEES NAMED. V
The committees which will handle the
Organization campaign were named, and
it was stated that the Organization cam
paign would start on October 11, three
weeks before election day. The chair
men of the committees are:
Finance, Senator Edwin II. Vare:
Campaign, David Martin; Registration
and Organization, Senator James P. Mc
NIchol; Speakers, Jacob J, Seeds; Meet
ings, Thomas G. Morris; Law, John P.

POLICE TO SWEEP CITY
IN FIGHT ON FRAUD
Continued from rage One
tee of Seventy. It has been estimated
that tho registration lists this year have
been padded to the extent of 25,000 names
by the Organization henchmen, who
"overstepped tho mark," expecting the'
Oiganlzatlon to have an overwhelming
victory this year.
These complaints are now being care
fully investigated by the Committee of
Seventy, and wholesale prosecutions are
threatened.
The first step toward employing the po
lice to Insure an honest election was made
this morning, when a canvass of 30 scat
tering divisions where the worst com
plaints came from was ordered. The po
licemen who are making the canvass aro
in uniform.
The wards in which are the divisions
being canvassed now are In all sections
of the city, and Include several In South
Philadelphia, the Northeast, downtown
wards and the 2$th Ward the home ward
of Thomas B. Smith, Organization can
didate for Mayor,
DRIPPS DETERMINED.
Director Drlpps today declined to make
public a list of the divisions being can
vassed or the wards in which they are
located.
"Formal complaints have been received
that are serious enough to demand Imme
diate attention," said the Director, "I
Intend to obtain an honest election. If It
It wltbln the power of this department
to obtain it. So. on my pwn initiative,
I ordered the canvass."
The Director Intimated that the canvass
will be extended later to other divisions.
"The canvass is being made in M di
visions scattered, over the city," he said.

Ones about which we have received com.
plaints, however."

istering a win on tho Hth, but It was all
over when Oulmet and Brown won tho

Of tho four players, Oulmet was by far

WQRLD'S SERIES DATES
TO BE SET TOMORROW
Strong Likelihood That Classic Will
Open Today Week
NEW YORK, Oct. l.-One week from
today, in all probability, the Red Sox
and Phillies will meet in the first game
of tho series that will decide the world's
championship.
Final decision as to the date and place
of starting the annual derby will not bo
definitely settled until tomorrow, when
the National Commission meets In New
York. However, there-is a growing im
pression In baseball circles that the big
tilt will be underway on the 8th.
Dy starting the series on the Sth, two
gamcB could thus be played in one city
without a layoff and Sunday be utilized
for traveling to the other, whereas if
the getaway Is on Saturday, but one
gamo might be played in the first city.
That means more railroad fare and ad
ditional expense.
One reason why Doston is favored to
get the first "game is the enormous seat
ing capacity of, the new Braves' park
Close to 60,000 spectators can be crowded
int& the plant, which is twice as many
aa could ,be packed in the Phllly park.
This question, however, Is supposed to
be decided by the toss, of a, coin.
There Is no advantage) to be gained or
lZ'1 y eitntr team' Vh edge
the Red Sox would have by playing at
home would, be offset hv n iii.,r..
