G. Bach. George C. Winfrey. Sam-oel Rom and William P. Burch, arethe latest arrivals, at Nowie. andit Is announced that tuey have allbeen freshened up for the Bowiecampaign with the prospects thatthey will cut considerable figure inthe division of the prise money.The youngsters in the stable of

Barch, which belong to Samuel Ross.'e this city. are the smartest lotof two-year-olds. perhape,. that willappear at Bowie. Ross hasm been dis-appointed in the Grey Leg two-year-olds he imported a couple of sea-sons back, and which showed prom-

- ise in their work at Denning lastspring. Not one of them has turn-ed out well. They have been toobusy bucking their shins, and prob-ably will not strike their gait untilnext seasom.Burch, however, has developed some

others. Two of these-The Porter, aam of Sweep. and Ballymooney, adaughter of qelt-are American bred.The third-Colonel Cluff, a son of Gal-loping Simon-and Auntie-is English.Colonel Clug very probably is the starof the trio. He was imported fromGreat Britain by Grant Hugh Browneand Bernard Baruch bought him atthe weeding out sale of the Browneyearlings in New York last winter, atwhich he brought $4.9110. Jack McGin-nis, who once raced Frank Gill andSam Jackson. developed Colonel Clug,and Baruch sold him privately to Rossix or seven weeks back.The consideration is said to have

been W000. Colonel Clug is a chestnutof splendid proportions and muchspeed. He was one of the startersfrom the Rorn stable in the Waldenat Pimlico, and he might have beatenhis stable companion. The Porter, Ifhe had had first rate racing luck. Heshould prove formidable at Bowie.The Porter, a winner at Pimlico, isa smartly set up youngster of excep-tional muscular developmeni and he,too, can run fast under we t. Baily-mooney beats both Colonel Clug andThe Porter in work, but she has notdiscovered as much class as they haveshown under colors.Ultimatum and Alvord, both win-

ners at Bowie last autumn. are thecleverest horses of mature years inthe Burch menage.

PITTEAMFolwd's Elkvus that Dawsed Miehi-sa I Now a VeB.Oilhd MachilaOut of a study of the football re-

suits of yesterday two facts Etandout stresly:1-The team that smothered Michi-

gan would have played Pittsburghto a standstill had the clash of Pennwith Glenn Warner's charges takenploe last week Instead of three weeksago. -

2-Ohio State stands out as the un-disputed champion of the West forthe second consective year and onits record has a right to claim thatit measures up to the beet that theEast has produced.To g'eet followers of gridiron

achievements the result of the Penn-Michigan game was a surprise. Whilethe former team had shown a steadyand pojrful development, the West-eam erven was thought to be madeup of player, with an unusual punchand with an elusive and over-power-ing attack. Ali reports from Michi-gan indicated that Yost had createdone. of his old-time elevens. 'that hehad tremendous driving power in thebockfield. "a well-developed aerial at-tack and a defense that was proof.But Folwell's proteges shattered

the reputation of the Wolverines.The Pena boys proved superior inevery angle of the game. They hada stone wal defense, they displayeda varied and powerful attack-andthey had Berry.Here is the outstanding Individual

player of the season in the East. Tobe sure. Oliphant, of the Army, hasdone some great work and has rolledup many a score, but it must be re-membered that he has played gen-erally against teams and less strenu-ous opposition. Berry. on the otherhand. has been consistently valuableagainst every kind of opponent. Heis a dashing, spectacular playerwhose record will entitle him to aplace high on the football roll ofhonor. His running was strong andheady, his tackling was deadly, hispunting was well placed, his toe car-ried the real scoring punch.In the Michigan line-up only one

man stood out prominently. Thatwas Lambert, the genter. He reallydid about half the defensive work ofhis team. He was after the ballevery minute, and did much of thetackling and most of that which wasvital. Welman. at full back. alsodid some good work. After the dis-qualification of Weston, the starMichigan quarter. Yost's eleven wasrealy a two-man team. The backfield was uneven and the line wasweak in spite of the statement ofWalter Eckersall, the former Chicagostar, who declared the line one ofthe best ever developed in the West.WESTOVER ELEVEN

SKATING AND H IGARE JOLTED BY WAR

The active sportsman Is findingthat the war is slipping him a joltin the pocketbook and that thehigh cost of sport Is right In linewith the hiGh cost of living.The price of baseballs and foot-balls hasn't yet been hit by warprices, but the golfer Is paying theprice In increased cost of balls andclubs and the tennis pl4yer pays25 per cent more for his balls andrackets.Perhaps the hunter Is hardest hit.A year afo It was possible to

buy a very fair double-barrel shot-gun for about $27.50. The eamegun will cost 35 more today. Thehlgher-priced guns have Increasedat the same ratio.Repeating shotguns and rifles

have Increased In price from $$5 to$12.50 and ammunkion has increasedfrom 50 to 100 pet cent.The new fad of Ice skating he.

caused thousands to seek this rec-reation during the last tigo yearsand this year finds Ice skatersforced to pay an advence of from5S to 75 per cent In the cost ofskates.Skating shoes have advapeed 50

per cent since laac year.Other sporting good8 hit by highprices are camping outfits, sleds,hockey paraphernalia, hard rubber

Regardlees of the outcome of thefootball season in the East and West-regardless et the imposing recordshuag up by Pittsburgh, Notre Dameor Ohio Itate, it' going to be prettyhard for any of them to amake anyclaime on the national eh=a""roaeOn account of a stumbling blocklabelled Georgia Teck placed le thefootball path by J. V. Malemn.For two years Nesana has won the

and place Heilson's team right nearthe pinnacle of American football.Heisman Is one of the originators of

open play. Long before the forwardpass rule came lto being Helsmanwas drilling his teams in open forma-ations and his teams were playingfootball that other tamn could notfathom.,.Now in the day of the forward passHeisman Is again outguessing themwith a shift, somewhat resembling theMinnesota shift, which Heisman origi-nated In 1910.Those who have seen the Tech shift

declare it is superior to the Minnesotashift In that all points of the opposingline are assaulted with equal strength.Heisman has also been able to developgreat end running on his teams by a

unique method of throwing a greatmass of interference in front of therunner, seven men always beingswung into end attacks.Heisman was born in Cleveland,

Ohio, Octobet 23. 186. He attendedhigh school at Titusville. Pa., andplayed football on the high schoolteam. He went to Brown in 1887 andmade the freshman team 'and thenext year played guard on the varsity.In 188 Heisman went to Pennsylvaniato study law, plpyed center there thatyear, tackle In 180 and end In 1891.His coaching began at Oberlin Col-

BALL CLUB OF STARSFAIL IN BIfrSERIES

Well-balanced Teams Prove Winnersin Pinch-White Sox Example.New York, Nov. 1.-The result of

the' world's series this year was thestrongest kind of an argument insupport of the theory that a ballclub with balance is better than a

ball club composed of Individualstars.Scan the roster of the Giants. Mc-

Graw's team is made up of the pickof the National League players anda few who were combed out of thedefunct Federal League.Compared to the White Box the

Giants are a team of stars, and be-ing a team of stars they are full oftemperament. With the exception oftwo of three members of the Giants,McGraw's players are out therefighting for personal glory. It Isn'tthat they refuse to boost for eachother, or that they do not want topull together. They simply can notdo it.They go up to the plate with a

desire to drive home any runs thatmay be on the bases, but they allwant to hit the ball a mile, andonce they take a toe-hold thethought of the glory they could getout of a home run is uppermost.Benny Kauff got his first hit of theseries that way, and the hit was ahomer. And, as the writer has men-tioned before, Benny was sent upthere with orders to push a swing-ing bunt past Urban Faber.Kauff is one of the outstapding stars

of the Giants. Heinle Zimherman isanother and Buck Herzog still an-other. Zimmerman, secured from theCubs by McGraw. Is probably the bestall-around third baseman in the Na-tional League. Kauff, from the Feds,is an outfielder of updoubted class.and Herxog. scrappy, brainy and ca-pable in every way, Is a real star.George Burns, who has never play-

ed with any other major league teambut the Giants, is admitted to be thebest sun-fielder in either big league,and George is perhaps the quietestand most unassuming player on theteam, yet he Is a star that any man-ager would be glad to have.Davy Robertson, who may not be In

a Giant uniform next year. bloomedforth as a star after McGraw hadgroomed him for an outfield. Davy istemperamental, and, as McGraw oncesaid, "he can be Just as god as hewants to be."McGraw's pitchers, for the most

part, have been picked from otherclubs. Perritt, Benton and Sallee,three of his best bets, are all starein their own leagues, and Schupp is ayoung lumInary of undoubted class.But the pitchers do not count asheavily as thne players In regular posi-tions who play day In and day, out.Of these there are several we have

not mentioned. Artie Fletcher Is oneof them, and every National Leaguefan knows that Artie Is full of tem-perament, and that he has long beenrated as a star in the old leaspe. BillRariden, from the old Braves,- andlater the Feds, Is one of the bestcatchers In his league. Lew McCartywas without a doubt the classiest all-around catcher In the National Leaguewith the.-possible exception of FrankSnyder when McGraw grabbed himfrom Brooklyn, and Lew Is still star-ring In Gor. Tener's loop.With the White Sox It Is different.Rowland has several stare, but as a

whole his ball club does not bristlewith them. Cicotte stood out aloneall season among the pitchers. EddieCollins Is a star of undoubted caliberand Rtay Schalk ranks as tho bestcatcher in the ganme. Hap Felsch ap-proached stardom this season and Isreally a wonderful player, and JoeJackson completek the list. Weaver,McMullen, Gandil,' Lelbold, and JohnColllne are the aogs whno fit into theRowland machine with the outstand-ing players named here. They are allgood, cosisteut ball piayers, but notfamed as stars. And the Box playe4the more consietent game In theworld's series. They got the better ofthe breaks after the fourth gamne, itis true, but the teem that has bal-ance is very liable to get the breaksmeet of the time. It is belands thatcmot most

Us.S.-UNMEN TAKEENGLAND'S NUMBER

Invaded Island in 1901 and Upheldthe Flag, for It Was Undefeated.

By PETER P. CARNEY,The invasion of France by goodly

that invaded England and it is aclassy gang of gun pointers now inFrance. Gen. Pershing is the leaderof the present force, while Paul Northwas the leader of the army of 1101.North discovered that the Britishwere anxious to meet a team of Amer-ican trapshooters. and North, withTom Marshall, made arrangementswith Capt. Butts for the overseastrip. The result is history, but at thisparticular time some of the detailsare worth reading.Those who defended America against

NChicago. Nov. 18.-There ma*r be

tighter proposition somiwhere n t0universe than the boxing ommissie.that chaperones the fight game in Coqlumbus. Ohio. but if thire in it Sokeeping itself pretty U.11 camoUiiineaedThis Columbus commission is the realwonder of the b-xing world. Noteven Wisconsin. a hih boasts a Ricotight little commission of its own, canmatch the Columt us article.There are three members of the Co"

lumbus conrmision. appointed by themayor. Their authority covers only.the corporate limits oflIlumbus. btjwithin those limits they are the realbosses of the works. Ti com.misoo.sis the supreme court. the Court of lestappeal. There is nothing whatevegbeyond.Here is a brief sketch of the waf,

the commission and he referees allbouts held In Columbus. His eon-ferees are a railroad ma and a stock-man. Hughes is regarded as a capeable referee.The commission Is empowered to

charge a permit fee of S2 from allpromoters. and no license for a box,ing show A. isued until the fee iapaid. A further fee of :. per cent ofthe groas receipts of all shows ischarged, this to cover the personalexlpenses of the commission. The feethus aecuired are eplit three ways bythe commission after each boxing efletertainment.

* The mayor told the members of theconmmission he requiredi them to seto It that the very higheet elasa ofboxing Is offered, whIch served thedouble pur-poae of raiaing the stand-ard of bosing in Columbus and addedto the emnoluments accruing to themnembers of the commisaelon by virtue ,

bouts, one of the other members ofEthe commIssion guards the portals tosee that there is no shenneaiga. putover in the sale of tUcketa. The thrmember keepe time at the bouta. ItIs very little that gets by thie oemmisaion, and It Is getting results.
