The football eleven which will
represent Richmond College on the
gridiron this Beason will have its Ursi
Opportunity to .-how Its ability on
Saturday, when the Maryland Agri?
cultural College will open the molu
eklii season locally at Broad Si reel
Park. Coach Ifonaker has not selected
his team as yet? fir trom It?but ho
will have a formidable array of talent
on the chalked Held when the referea

Richmond College Is esperlenclp?
something new In the way of coaching
a fr.oii.all team. Sam lloiiaker. \yho |
is In charge of the Jaspers, has en?
tirely changed the methods which,
have obtained at that Institution
heretofore. Taking a lot of green men
and slamming them Into a uniform
without any though!, as to their
knowledge of the game is no part of!
"Honny's' scheine. lie 1= tea hing

to appreciate his efforts. Bast year
there was not that harmony bCtW"UU |
men and coach which should exist.
Long, while a man who knew the.
game, was a Harvard man. unused to
the game aa It la played In <he South,
and he found It a hard mailer to mal:?
his pupils see things through hi:? eyes
Therelore his team was not a sue- |
ctss. despite the fact that he had goou
material to work with.

Honiker. on the other hand. Is aj
Southern boy. Ills experience at the,
university has eminently fitted him for '
the job. He can enter Into the proper
spirit, because he knows the manner ;
Isms of the men he Is couching. The
rudiments of the game, familiarity
with the rules as they are to-day. the
value of team work. and. above all, .
sjpeed--the:-e nre the things which
Honaker Is fichtng at the present j
time. He has a large squad, but h?
Is able to handle |t. And (he men
like him. .Mori-, they have conlldence
In his ability and ate willing to try ,
to do anything he tells them.
While there have been a few scrim-!

kind of ? oi k Oh Saturday and again |
yesterday?these scrimmages were,
more for the benefit of Hie coach than,
for the benefit of the men. He Is
anxious, now that lie has his school
well started, to le?rn something of the
Individual ability of the men. Just
ns soon as he has a line en what he
may expect of 11 te rn lie wll" start his]
real work. What Is now being dona
is preliminary. As a matter of fact,
the weather is a Utile too warm to
drive the men hard. Too milch work
at this time will sap their strength]
and vitality, and will lessen their
power of resistance when the Veal '
games begin. "Honny" knows this, and

As a nucleus for his team, Hunaker,

Decker, tackle; George, centre; Lank
lord, halfback; Lutz, halfback; Tyler,
back, a lid Ancarrow, back. Carter, a I

ever, that the edtat from home will

I Studying this materi.-' and judging'
from the work Ijsi year, il will be!
gathered that prospects are bright. Ks
. peclally Is this conclusion reached
i when t ie new men are taken Into con?

! Throckmorton, who w as a member i c
the eleven two years ago. Harris, liom
( Kork Union, who is trying for George's
place . at contra; .lustIs, halfback on
the Pork Union teim.lnst year; brown.!

Quartes, from Richmond Academy;
Wicker, a new Mian. King, from Kork
Union; Hussell, Blume, Hiley, Town
send, Crlss, Mall and Hurdle, of last '
year's scrubs. j
The new men have not had milch ;
chance to distinguish themselves, but i
they ar> willing workers, and ut le^si '
some of the men on last year's varsity
eleven will have u hard job retaining
their positions. Altogether, prospects
are bright, The backfield is going
to be fast, and the line will have both ?
weight and speed,
I.lue-1 p for Scrimmage,
During Hie brief scrimmage yester?
day afternoon the first team line,] upj
as follows: O'Nell, left end; Decker j
left tackle; Ben ton, left guard; Harris;
centre; Tyler, right guard. Duval i
right tackle; Taylor, right end; Wick
er, quarter; Lankford, left half; .lustis.
light half ; Brow n, fullback. It looks I
probable that this will be the line- I
up to face the Aggies timing the drat
perb d, though there will be many !
changes as the game progresses.
The scrubs yesterday lined up as
follows: Hurdle, left end; Blunie, left!
tackle; Padgett, left guard. Russell,
centre; Valentine, riglit guard; Irby,
licht tackle; Woodward, right end;
Quartes, quarter; Maddux, left half;;
Duval, rieht half; Th>rockmorton, full-1
back- Both teams did good work, and
the scrubs gave the varsity all the !
work it wanted.
FINUn ARRIVAL1
HELPS VIRGINIA
[Special to The Tlmcs-Dlspatch.1
CharlottcBvUle , Va? September 25.? j
A g> niiinc surprise was caused in ath- |
leiic circles at Virginia this mornlr.g
when Kdwfird "Flnlay dropped in on j
tio- Southern Hallway's early morning
train froth his home in Chattanooga,
i. mi. Flnlay was a star player on;
last vein's varsity, ond was picked as .
all-South Atlantic end by well known'
critics. Soon after nl? arrival th? |
athlete went at once to be tilled out in
football togs, and this afternoon up-;
peared on Lambeth Kleid with tho ?
Bquad. He was wurmly welcomed by.
coaches and fellow-players.
Kinlay Is an Ideal end. . He Is tall,
and his long arms are a great us
set in smearing backs who attempt
to'c'rcle his end. lie Is full of nerve !
und gilt, and a player of much en I
tliuslasin. He figured prominently in
several big games lust fall, and fre- j
qucntly would gel his man after being
knocke<] to the ground. Besides, ho 1
a close student of the game, and is
always willing to add to the knowl?
edge he gained on the gridiron al
Sewnnec. He Is modest un<l uuassum
Ing, and is rarely heard from. List
.spring he also made his letter on the
baseball team, although ho was In- j
jured just before the start of tho.
Northern trip. He Is a superb back-1
stop, a fair hitler and very fast on I
I he bases.
The arrival of Flnlay Is very timely,
and somewhat clarities the football
situation. With both .-nd positions
tilled by Captain Bowcn and Flnlay.
the coach? s can now put McDonald In
the back Held, where he should xhlnn
as a halfback, He is u player of ex?
perience, He Showed remarkable
form as a member of the University
of Mississippi eleven two years ago,
and is expected t? be It notable addi?
tion to the Virginia backfield. la Sat-'
ttrftay's game with Hampdeu-Sldney he:
alternated at end und halfback; and.
showed up exceedingly won.

next Monday night. A meeting, to
which every single individual In this
city, who is Interested in bowling is
invited, will l?o hold In the assembly j
hall ol Murphy's Hotel Monday ntghi
at S o'clock. At that time a perman
em organization will he formed, of
fleers elected and a coir.mittee named
for the purpose of dividing the play?
ers into leagues. As there are hun?
dreds of howling enthusiasts in.Rich?
mond, it is expected that the capacity
of the hall will be tested.
It had been Intended to hold a meet
ing of the captains of the teams oi
the Richmond Bowling Association,
which did such good work for th -
sport last season, at the Newport
Bowling Alleys to-night. But hecaus?

While bowling received a wonderful
impetus through the way In which It i
was conducted last year, the mistake
whs mndc In oaganizlng but one
league. After the organization of the
Richmond Bowling Association, there
were any number of teamn which de
sired to be represented. But the sched?
ule had been adopted anil planH all laid,
and so it was Impossible to admit
them. Thus many good bowlers were
deprived the privilege of competing
for the trophies offered nnd Itlcnmond
was denied the privilege of having
these men represent tho city at the n<i>
tlonal bowling congress.
However all this will be different dur?
ing the season about to begin. At the
mass-meeting everybody present will
be given an opportunity to be hoard
Every suggestion made will he consid?
ered and the best adopted. The name I
of each bowler present will be regist?
ered, and by a popular vote a com?
mittee on arrangement:! will he nan
ed.
It will be the duty of this commit?
tee to investigate the record of each
of the men and then to classify them.
After the Classification has been mada.
the men will be assigned to team:,
consideration boing given to getting
on the same teams. men who air*
friendly and who desire to be togotb
er.
Independent I.cngucs Invited.
Of course, where u league has al?
te, idv been formed nnd the teams on
lered, the committee will not inter
fere. The Idea Is for the committee
which will ho permanent, to act ns n
sort of clearing house for bowlers, po
that the men will be properly dlRtrl
buted nnil no one team In any |e;,gu?
! lit too strong lor the other teams In
the same It-ague.
It is understood that tho banker]
will have a league of their own. Then
it Is also Understood that there wllj
be a commercial league t-omiiose?i of
teams from the various factories anu
large business houses of Richmond,
'fliese leagues will draft their schert
ules and submit them to the commit
tee in order that comparison be mau
and conflicting dates be corrected.
Uof-tJ-Season Serie? I'lnnned.
As sotui as the season Is over a
series of post-season games will be
held In order to determine the cham
plonship of the city. In the post-sen
son series the winning team of each
league will play the winning team In
each of the other leagues, and by
elimination the winner decided. It Is!
a comprehensive plan which the lead
era have mapped out. but It Is the piHn
which has brought the greatest meaB- j
tire of success in other cities, and as j
the number of bowlers In Richmond1
has Increased wonderfully In tho past
few years. It la thought advisable f? I
start organizing here.
The fact that the national tourna?
ment is to be held in Washington this
season adds to the Interest In the
game. Richmond hopes to ?send a
worthy representation to the tourney
and there is no renson why a mng:
creditable showing should not be
made There should be at least t
half a dozen leagues in Richmond this
w-lnter. At nny rate Ute meeting will
be largely nttended. It Is open to all.
and the more the merrier. After th?
organization the season will begin In
earnest. Then listen for the crash
of timber and watrb the fur 'fly as tho
rivalry between the several leagues
and 'he' several teams of each league
increases

COBB PROMISES
SOME NEW TRICKS
Cry for Tickets to All-Stars
Athletics Game Is Already
Heard.
Notwithstanding the fact that the,
game to be played here October 11 be?
tween the All-Stars and the Athletic*
la some time ort. Dr. George F. Bagby
who Is managing thu attraction fot
Acca Temple. Mystic Shrine. Is re?
ceiving applications for iiekctu from
every section of the State in every
mall. Naturally, he has been unahl?
to acknowledge' all this mass of cor?
respondence, but, lor ehe benefit ol
tho out-of-town people who ..desire to
witness the contest, the Information
is given that tickets will not be on
sale until October 1. The tickets have
not come from the printers, und when
they do the local fans will be given
the first opportunity.
Never in tho history of loea^
bUHeball has there been <iulte so
much Interest in a game as In
the approaching event. Conser
| vatlve estimators place tho crowd
1 at 15,000, and this figure has be?ti
fixed upon only because of thy
capacity of the park. It is the first
time In the history of the two leagues
. that any such game has been Played,
on a minor league diamond. It Is
not only a tribute to Richmond, but
a tribute to the energy and spunk o(
Or. Bagby. who took upon himself to
offer the big guarantee needed la
cinch the gnme.
Mmk ?I Kirn Opposed.
When Connie Mark first heard Ot
the proposed game here, he was wrath?
ful. He could not for the life of 1 !rn
6oe why Richmond was entitled to a
game of such prominence, even though
Jltnmle McAleer had agreed. Dr. Bag
by hied to Philadelphia and held a
little session with the great man. and
after looking at the doctor for a fe ??
minutes, he wns unable to hold out
longer. "Doe, rm going to play Rich?
mond If I bust." was his forcible but
rather IneloquentJ way of expressing
lt. "Von folks have shown the pro?
per spirit." So Richmond, with Dr.
Bagby's aid. won OUt) over all com?
petitors, a way Richmond has of do?
ing In most Instances.
The game, aside from being a great
exhibition of the greatest sport of all
tlmea, will give local fandom a chance
to gauge the Athletics and form an
opinion of what they will do In tho
world's series against the Giants.
From what can be gathered, local sym?
pathy Is with the Giants, Hero will
be given an opportunity bo temper
sympathy with Judgment and a fair
working Idea of the relative merits of
the teams can be obtained.
Great Ones Ulli Parade.
It will be a great day for Richmond
from a baseball standpoint. To sea
Ty Cobb and Trls Speaker and Ol;, da
Milan Is worth the price of admis?
sion. Norman (Kid) Elberfeld will bo
wnlklng around Just as he did In the
olden days, shaking hands with his
friends. Walter Johnson, with all of
his six feet one Inch of height, and '-is
blond hair, will perform. Harry Lord,
fleet of foot and strong of arm, will
likewise be on parade. And Rus Ford,
Ed. Walsh. King Hal and a host of
others will complete ntift part of tho
show.
This Is not all which will be under
the big top. Harry Davis, prince of
good fellows, will walk arm In arm
with the great and only Cornelius Mc
Gllllcudd'y. Oidrlng and Strunk;
Plank and Morgan; Coombs and Ten?
der; Mclnnis and Hartsell; Collins
and Barry?these and more will be
ahown. They are perfectly harmless,
only do not feed the animals, for on
the ball Held they are said to present
their fangs.
Cobh has a host of friends here and]
will be royally entertained. It will
be his first trip to Richmond and be ist
going to make the most of it. In a
letter to a friend he states that he. is)
looking forward with much pleasnro
to the visit and is saving up a lot of
new tricks which will be performed
for the first time In any part of the?
world at Broad Street Park. Already
the buz of the fan Is heard, and tha
old but familiar cry of "come early
and avoid the rush" had better bo
heeded by tho knowing.
