Rules aoverninf ths fllaM from Belmont park to tha Statu of Liberty for a prise of $10,000. offered by Thomaa F. Ryan, were formulated and re as follow: "The prise will be awarded to the avia tor who shall make the beet elapsed time In a flight from the startlns; line, Belmont park, and around the Statue of liberty In New Tork harbor and return to the start In line. "The prise will be open to all competi tor who shall have remained In the air in one continuous flight -on , hour or more during previous contests in the meet "The content will Jake place on Thursday afternoon, October" 27, and the start will lie made between 2-45 end 8:4 o'clock. The spued time of any aviator shall be the Interval of time between the moment of crossing the alerting line In full flight, after Riving official notice of his Intention to atart. "In starting competitors must fly In the usual direction around the track, which they are at liberty to leave after passing tlin fifth pylon. "The flight must be completed before 6;) p. m." The race from Belmont park to the Sta tue of Liberty and back, for the special rrlie of $10,1100. offered by Thomas l' Ryan, r-".l be as much a teat of the aviator's skill and nerve as of the powers of the various makes of monoplanes and biplanes. W'hll? the contest for the International peed trophy will probably furnish the greatest excitement during the meet, the race around Liberty will be by far the moat spectacular event .While a great deal Is heard of the wonderful flying of the foreigners, the fact 1 coming to be recog nised that with a number of machines of the some power and size It Is the pilot, and not the aeroplane, who wins a race. J. B. Moleant snd J. Armstrong Drexel, the American airmen, use fast Blerlot monoplanes, and as they, have both re cently made some sensational , flights abroad, they may be relied upon to give good accounts of themselves In the con test over this difficult course. It Is prob able thnt the contestants will be compelled to follow a long over-water route Instead of being allowed to shape their own course directly over Brooklyn. Wilbur Wright Is Btrnt-.gly opposed to flying over cities. He says that while it Is an aviator's own busl nese whether he decides or not to risk his own neck, he has no right to endanger the lives of others. tiarrcn la Coralaar. tlroat satisfaction has been felt at the entry, of the French aviator, Garros, for the International tournament. Garros uses a Demoiselle, the Invention of Santos Du mont, which lias proved to be one of the most Interesting of flying machines In Europe. It has been called the humming bird of the heavier than air. brood. It Is the smallest flying machine In existence, weighing less than S-0 pounds, but like the humming bird It Is capable of enormous apeed and darts about through the air In a way.thut has provoked Dotn laugnier and ' wonderment from the crowds at the European meetings. Garros is by far the cleverest driver of these little machines. Uuring the last season he made some re markable flights in France. In one of his trips lie flew over the water from Plnard to St. Malo. While these foaby monoplanes in the hands of ordinary pilots keep very close to the ground, fJarros has driven one to treat altitudes end has taken his place In many of the important contests of France with the larger monoplanes. fount Jucques de I.esseps, the second aviator to cross the English channel, will bo another Frenchman for whom the race out Into the harbor will present little diffi culty. It is even possible that Louis nicrlot may be an entrant. Blerlot was the first man to fly from France to Eng land. Among the Americans Henry Weymann, ho has spent most of Ms time abroad and who owns three Farman biplanes, will probably be the most dangerous competi tor. ThoiiKh he was beaton In the Circuit de L'Fst he holds two world's records., one for the longest cross country flight In a finsle day and the other for the longest pusHener carrying flight. Weymann's re sourcefulness was recently shown by fly Itir at night with a passenger.

NEW TORK. Oct. 12. WMls fall track meets are being planned and cross-country teams are trslning. the large varsities are figuring their graduation losses on the field and cinders. Tale lost eleven men who won points against Harvard and Harvard Isst but four men who scored In the same contest. Harvard will miss O. P. Gardner in the sprints next spring, but R. C. Foster remains eligible, while Raney, Thayer and Austin were point winners last year. Tale will gain In the sprinting depart ment, since E. V. Thatcher and T. F. Rtidell of last year's freshman team be came eleglble. E. P. Seymour was lost by graduation. Wheeler, Boyd. Rellly and W. P. Snyder are also valuable men for the Blue. Princeton should be very strong In the dashes next spring with R, Cook, R. Black and E. Jessup still eligible and helped out by Pendleton, Hall and Thomaa of last year's freshman team. . G. W. Ryley was the only mlddle-dlBtance runner graduated by Harvard. The Crim son acquired Warren of last year's fresh man team. Tale lost L. Klrgassoft, the half-mller, but has new blood In the sopho mores, Reed and Baker. Princeton lost G. Whitely, who won the mile against Yale last year. In the hurdles Long and Lewis remain eligible at Harvard. Gardner's Ions will be felt Yale has O. A. Chlsholm, who won the intercolleglates; K. Merrill, Iarkln, Piatt and Howe. L M. King was lost, but Yale should be very strong over the Um bers. Dwlght Is Princeton's mainstay In the hurdles. The sophomores, Flmpson and Richards, are promising material. Harvard will be strong In the distance events with Jacques and the sophomore. Lawless. Newton, Fernald and Witblngton are also good men. Yale loses Miles In the 8S0-yard run and A. L. Haskell, the two miler. Yale lost heavily In the field events, los ing the crack pole vaulter, Captain Wilson, and the weight throwers, Cooney, Andrus and GoebeL R. A. Gardner can vault again for Yale. Harvard has several good men developing. Princeton lost Captain Moore, a pole vaulter, but has Bryan, a sophomore of ability. Harvard has all Its last year's high jump ers and several good sophomores, while Yale Is In a similar position. Yale retains Captain Kllpatrlck In the broad Jump, while Harvard has Long, park and Austin as possible point winners. Prlnoeton has Bament, Bartlett Simmons and Le La Reusille, Prlncton bids fair to be formidable In the weight events with Speers and Simmons, both point winners at the Intercolleglates, remaining eligible. E. J. Hart Is also a good shot putter. GREAT WORK OF CAPT. BEXBETT Heaslaart. Present Leader, lias liars refnakr t Fallow Cam pals; si Is Kw Well On.

T1.-A the conditions now stand It Is understood that the Swedes are going to inaugurate the am bidextrous rule at the next Olympic games. That Is In such field events as the discus. Javelin, shot and hammer the competitors win have to throw with the right and left hands, the throws with each to be added, the distance achieved to be the athlete's performance. This mar be all right for the Swedes, but what purpose It serves to be ambidextrous at putting the shot or other weight event Is hard to un derstand. Blnce Mllo of Crofton showed his great prowess at pitching the discus at Athens and Polydamus of Thessalia exhibited his wonderful accuracy at aiming the Javelin men threw things with one hand, and it is their one single effort that has been re cord'sd. Every man has a master hand. the same as be possesses a master eye. In athletic exercises, where the hand Is mostly used, tn- perrormer at all times makes use of the better of the two. Some men use the left hand, but the majority use the right but the man Is always sura to bring into play the one with which he has the more power, and It is a fact worth remembering that men sll over the world today who specialise In field events have to develop one hand or one leg and keep continually practising with that one to maintain their places In the front rank of athletics. , That some athletes are endowed with a mastei lag, or one leg which Is better than the other. Is certain, and It does not follow that a right-handed man always finds his right leg the strongest. One notable case worth mentioning Is the holder of the world's broad Jumping record of 24 feet lli Inches. He ts a rlght aanded man, yet he always took oft with the left leg. ir wis ambidextrous rule Is allowed to prevail at Stockholm it may cause lots of confusion to the Americans, the English ana other nations that are old in tho practics of track and field sports. of course there Is a long time for men to get acquainted with this new wrinkle, and maybe the EngllHh and other nations that will have a word to say about the final makeup of the program may have this rule uxpunged. If It la not then the world may ua well begin to accustom Itself to the conditions. In that case It might be consistent to have jumping contests, the Jumpers to take off with the right and again wllh the left and to have races first with the right side to the track and to run the same distance with the left side In. It would be also well that fencers should bo made to use the right and left hands, and that marks men of all clauses should sight with the right and left eyes In all their contests. 1 he introduction of this new rule to the Olympic meet .'"uhtrate the ridiculous things poiioible to green devotees In track and field sports when they get the ship hand of management In an Internationa affair.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 21-The great suocnes of ths Pennsylvania varsity crew last spring at Poughkeepsie ham Increased Intereet In rowing at the university. The squad they haul laurt year was the blur est that ever was got out and the reason for that was the ardent worK done by Alton Berwiltt the captain. He went through all the departments, attended class, meet ings and made a strong personal canvass of the university. The. result was that more than 136 men came out for tha var sity eight Although they ildn't look like much when they first got to Poughkeepsie, about ten day' practice there made almost another crew of the Quakers. By the day of the race they had Improved so much that almost anyone would have conceded to them a chance to be an excellent third The crew proved to be even better than that and having the advantage of the smoothest course for the early part of the race hung on desperately to Cornell and finished a very close second. .Having seen what was accomplished by the hard work Captain Bennltt did last year, Lloyd W. Hoagland, who will lead the crew this time, has begun his cam paign. It Is thought that because of the excellent rowing last year It will not be so hard to get tha men out for the raoe. Furthermore, of the eight who did so well en the Hudson only one man Is lost He Is Walton. The other men of the varsity Ightr-Alexander, De Long, Smith, Roatn, Bennitt and Shoemaker, besides Hoag land will report Williams, tho coxswain, also will be out Shoemaker and Wil liams may have some trouble arranging thwlr college work to permit of their row ing, but they will make an effort Bell, Browne axid Thomaa from the var sity four; Peterson, Btifel and Multbrd from the substitutes and all of last year's freshman squad have enlisted for the au tumn practice. The main difference be tween this season and last Is that last year It was almost Impossible to get the veterans of the 1908 erew to promise to be out This time the veterans are, not only willing, but ea-er, because they believe that Pennsylvania has a royal ohanoa to win on the Hudson. Tho turnout for tha ' first day1 rowing was 112 men, of whom fifty were fresh men. This Is an unusually large number for the beginning. In faot tha biggest Penn has had for some time. It serves to show that they are In earnest at Penn syrvanla In their Idea of following trp the rowing triumph of last year. Pennsyl vania hasn't had ao good a crew, with the exception of the 1S0S boat sinoe 1900. We're members of tne Finished Second club," says a Penn oarsman, "with Co lumbia as the other member. We were second In UX4 and 1810, and they were sec ond in 1907, 1908 nd 190S. " This next time we're going to break Into the finished first' class again." The fall rowing will last four wweks. It will come to an end with a series of department raoes. For the first time first year men In department other than the academic will have a ohanoe to compete. First year crews will be selected from law, engineering, veterinary, medicine an4 dental departments, as well as from the college. In addition there will be depart ment crews made ut of upper class men and class crews In the college. This will make altogether fourteen crews for the races. The fall regatta will cover three days, the final for the championship of the university being on the last day. ELMS MEN MAM BLUNDER Novices Often Wear Themselves Out in Practice. TOO JIANY TOURNEYS BAD PAVANNAH, Ga., tK-t. fX Preparations are In full swing for the two big road races to be held In this city November U and 12, under the auspices of the Savannah Automobile club. Plnce It was decided to have the grand prise race run over the Savannah circuit Instead of the Vanderbllt cup course, as was originally planned, the managers have been very active, as but little time remains for tbem to bring to a successful conclusion the thousand and one details that have to be met A gang of more than 200 men has been put to work on the course, and so rapidly Is the work progressing that there is no doubt about the circuit being In perfect trim on the days of the oontests. Carloads of gravel are dumped along the roadway. and this Is being worked Into the roadbed with excellent results. The circuit this year will be In better shape than ever be fore. All the turns are being banked. With an Ideal-course policed by militia, with the fastest cars and the most famous drivers of America and Europe entered forxmpe- tltlon. It Is easy to forecast that m good event Is In store. In order to get a large corps of workers on tho roads that form the race circuit the dragnet of the police of Savannah has been put Into action and all vagrants and pro fessional mendicants who have been con victed of vagrancy and loitering have been rounded up and put to work. Thus, while the auto racers are going southward, the rail birds of leisure are hastily heading northward in order to escape the task of "making little stones out of big ones." The international raoa for the grand prize of the Automobile Club of America will be run on Saturday, November U. The entrant of the winning car will have the custody of tha ,000 gold trophy until It is again corr.ixtted for. The Flat company la the present holder of the cup. It having been won In the grand prise race held at Bavan nan on Thanksgiving day In 1908, by Louis Wagner. Several cash prizes are offered for the big race. The winning driver la to receive 14.000, the second $2,000 and the third $1,000, The total distance for the contest will be tOT miles and the cars will have to cover the lS.&-mile circuit twenty-two times. Ths race for small cars, which will be run the day before ths grand prize event, promises to bs ons of ths biggest races of Its kind ever held In America. Two trophies ere offered for ths contest ths Savannah challenge trophy and ths Tiedeman prize. The Savannah challenge trophy la offered to the entrant of the winning car In the 231 to 900 cubto Inches piston class. Cars competing for this trophy will oover fif teen laps of the course, making a total of Zi7.6 miles. Ths Tiedemau trophy, named In honor of Mayor George Tiedeman of Savannah. Is offered for the entrant of the winning car In the 161 to 230 cubic inches division of the light car race. Cars competing in this class will oover the course ten times, making ths mileage total US miles. In addition to ths trophies the winners In both clasaes are to receive cash prize of 11,000 apiece.

Farm Claims Ball Players Big League Stars Represent All Pro fessions, hut Most Are Farmers. One of the moat Interesting things con nected with base bail Is the player's lifs after he has practically passed into ob livion, for a time at least, after the close of each season. There was a time when professional base ball did not enjoy the elevated plane as a profession that It does now, -when the majority of the players did little but loaf during the off season. That period has passed and such players are decidedly In the minority today. The great majority of thorn have some pro fession other than chasing the horsehide, which claims their attention when the bat, ball and glove havs been relegated to the shelf. These professions ars many and varied Practically every walk of business lifs is represented In the national pastime. Some are lawyers and not a few doctors of medicine, dentistry and surgery. . Others are established in businesses of their own. And there are some who are political lead ers, but there Is no calling which claims more followers than farming. It Is surprising to ascertain how many of the big league ball players havs pur chased farms, ranging from small ones of a few acres to vast stretches of land where it Is necessary for them to employ several farm hands. And another and deeper dip into their private lives reveals that a good many of thVm were born and reared amid furrows, plowing machines and general wholesomeness. The natural thing to do la to wonder why such should be the case, and the only logical answer that can be forwarded Is the fact that the farmer boy has consider ably more room to practice base ball than the city-bred chap. It la true that the farmer does not have a great deal of time, but It Is light until late In the evening during the summer, and after he has fin ished his work there Is nothing to prevent him from playing base ball. And, strange to say, the majority of these farmer players are among the beat ball toaavrs in the bualness. Larry Lajolo haa a farm juat outside Cleveland, Tyrus Cobb has a farm. In Georgia, Hutisell Ford has a big wheat farm In Manitoba and Nig Clarke, the Cleveland catcher, Is a furmnr during the off season. Billy Sullivan and Fielder Jones, both former managers of the Chicago White Sox, have an apple orchard together in Oregon. Walter Johnson has a. fwrtlle stretch In Idaho. Street Is an Alabama exponent of the hoe. Mansger Frank Chance of the Cubs can practically be called a farmer. He 'has a big orange grove in California. 80 has OrU Overall, the Cub pitcher. Clarke Griffith has a ranch In Montana. Tommy lach of the Pirates Is a riicken farmer. Lou Crtger and Frank Laporie have farms in Oldo. George T. Stalling, former manager of the Yankees, has a stock farm and cotton plantation In Haddocks, Ga. Fred Clarke, manager of itttaburg. has a grain farm In Kansas. Theae are Juat a few of the more proud, netit pUjsrs a l.o ate engaged la fanning Great Aviation Tourney Nears Meet at Baltimore Promises to Be Participated in hy Best Native 'j and Foreign Stars. j BALTIMORE, Oct. 22. With a large en try list of well-known fliers, and a gen erous assortment of prises, the great avia tion meet at Baltimore, November 2 to 8, Inclusive, now promises to be a worthy successor of the International event a Belmont park this month. The aviators o America and Europe will oome direct to Baltimore from Belmont park at the close of the meet and will continue their rivalry In this city. Among those whose presence Is assured are Glenn H. Curtlss, the Inter national cl'fJiiplon, and his corps; the Wright brothers, with Brooklns; the two Count de Leeseps, Hubert Latham, Aubrun and Simon, and ths- English team. In eluding James Radley, holder of the world's record for speed. . Efforts also will be made to secure Garros and his "De molselle" machine, the smallest in ths world, yet capable of great speed. Subject to increase in both number and value, the prises so far Bet tied are: Lord Baltimore prise, $10,000; speed, lo,000; altt tude, $5,000; duration of flight $3,500; long est flight $3.&00; slowest flight, $1,UX; best getaway. $2u0; accuracy. $500; bomb throw tng, $3,600. Besides these will be a number of trophies for amateurs, while J. Barry Ryan has offered a trophy, to be know- as ths Commodore Barry cup, for bomb throwing, this event to be open only to members of ths Aeronauts Reserve and foreigners. Selected by Curtlss, and approved by ex ports, the field has been pronounced one of tho best In the country, while it also I convenient and accessible.

In anticipation of enormous crowds the railroad and steamboat companies ars ar ranging reduced fares for aviation week, and also will provide special trains and ex curstons from all parts of the east. NEW YORK. Oct. -"J. One of the best things In the world for a lawn tennis player Is to get fit In the early part of the season and keep In condition until It closes. A majority of players try to get In condition In the full glare of the warm weather and in doing so undermine their vitality and they wonder why they are not ablo to stay more than a couple of sets. An Instance of advantage of being In condition early is that of Richard H. Palmer, who recently won the tristate championship and among those whom he defeated was Wallace F. Johnson. Had Palmer been in the same trim for the New York state championships last June as when he defeated Johnson he would have surely annexed the title. Another good thing for a player, espe cially a beginner, Is to practice the right way of making his shots. In discussing this and other points of the game an -expert remarks: "Nearly every aspirant for lawn tennis honors Is firmly Imbued with ths Idea that the only way he will ever get to be a first ctass player Is through tournament play, by meeting men with whose style he Is unfamiliar and getting beaten by some so-called crack. But while It Is undoubtedly an advantage for the novlcs to play against men much better than himself, ths notion that a sufficiency of tournament play Is all he needs In time to make him a champion or a near-cham plon is an unfortunate delusion, from which too many young players aura suffering. About as reasonably might they hope to become great singers by "suplng" faithfully at grand opera. Teachlaa; Is Needed. "There are several reasons why many a man possessing all the physical attributes requisite for a first class player falls to beoome one and the chief of these reasons is that most of these players are wholly and fearfully self-made they have never been taught ths game. As a result most of them do not know how to make the sim plest strokes properly, whils ths rudi mentary principles of footwork, position, timing, etc., are wholly unknown to them. Tho novlcs at tennis seldom or never re ceives any competent coaching. He picks up the game as best he can by playing with other novices, during which process he ts certain to acquire a great many faults of style which later he finds It almost Im possible to get rid of, If indeed . he ever realises the necessity of doing so. "It would hardly be an exaggeration tc say that at least nine out of ten players who take up the game are so badly handi capped at the start by this lack of skilled coaching that there Is practically no chance of their ever acquiring a correct form of developing half the proficiency they might have attained had they been taken In hand early by experu and taught correct meth ods of clay. 'Another almost Insurmountable obstacle to ths success of most tennis players , Is their curious Inability or unwillingness to recognise their mistakes and to correct them. To the observer It sometimes seems as though the average player must leave what brains hs hss In the clubhouse when lis goes out to play, for be so rarely acts as though he had them with, him on the court. Again and again In a match ho will be guilty of making the same stupid and fatal mistake such as trying to volley from the beck of the court, or rushing wildly to the net aXtor an easy return, or stick ing to the sort of game which Is only too plainly to his opponent's liking. The aver age player, In short uses everything but his head In trying to win. - "Favorite" Shots Hart. "He Is apparently too much concerned as a rule In trying to bring off some favor ite shot generally of a highly spectacular and risky kind to give any thought to any thing el He. It is as though he were fatally obsessed with the idea that he must win the point In one particular way, maybe the one lesst adapted to the purpose. His main notion Is to end the point one way or an other as soon as possible. Seldom does hs evince the slightst disposition to plan ahead for a shot, to try to work his opponent out of position or to keep him guessing as to Just what sort of a stroke to expect next. "A contest between two players of this kind is usually a slam-bang affair, which provides mors amusement than real Interest for ths players. "In the early stages of any larje tourna ment one may see men who havs been playing tennis for years and years repeat edly commit errors of Judgment and faults of execution which make their playing seem like that of the veriest tyro. These men have, time and again, watched the best players of this country compete; they are not deficient in powers of observation or mental astuteness and yet to watch them one would think them ignorant of all the finer points of the game. The adage that you. can't teach an old dog new tricks, seems to apply with peculiar force in the case of players like these. Their style. If such it may be called, was formed long- ago, and, despite Its glaring imperfections of which they appear bllaMfully unconscious they cling tenaciously to It and rely vainly on agility, steadiness or luck to give them victory."

NORTH PLATTE, Oct. r.-(Ppeclal) The North Platte High school foot ball team met and defeated the team from Sterling, Colo., on the local groundii today. The score was 11 to 0. This Is the surpris ing part of the game, because Sterling has one of the best teams among tho large schools of Colorado, and the North' Platte boys did not expect to be ablu to keep them from scoring. The crowd was very large and gave the local team good sup port Trick and. fake plays, mingled wltn straight foot ball, kept tho visitors from scoring and made the game Interesting to the spectators.
