was then introduced. He spoke
briefly OF the lille and character of
the late President Mckinley and said
that it was fitting that his name
should be connected with a school
Of political science, because he was
not only great as statesman, but he
was greatest in his comprehension
of the humble duties of American
citizenship.
Senator Hanna was the next
speaker, and from the beginning of
his remarks until the end his voice
tremored with emotion. He said:

completion, and he will look down
from on high and bless your noble
work. It is indeed noble work.
President Mckinley was deeply in
terested in this enterprise. and it was
owing to the inspiration of this be
lief that the people OF Ohio were
stirred to make the realization of it
to meet his views and wishes. 1t was
to him that we looked for our leader,
not only in thought, but in example.
His interest ins@this' university was
not because it belonged to a sect Of
which he was a member, but 1t was
because Of his devotion to all public
institutions that contributed to the
development of his countrymen. He
was proud of this beautiful city,
where he had spent, the best, part, Of
his life. He was. proud to see. it grow
in it's beauty and in it's development,
calling together here the representa-
tives Of all the people and the high
est calling of official life. He knew
the A B C of that life; he knew the
foundation of the. principle which was
to make his country great and his
experience in public life made him
appreciate much more than any man
the value of an institution like this.

NEW HAVEN. Nov. lS.-Yale's foot
ball players will return from Hastings
on-the-Hudson to-day. where they wen
to recuperate after the game with
Princeton on Saturday. Rafferty, and
Goss. despite their hard game, did not
appear to want the rest given the other
players. for they returned to New Haven
yesterday not any the worse for wear
and this afternoon will join their mates
in the practice preparatory to the big
game with Harvard On Saturday.
The coaches are very well pleased
with the mems condition and assert
that the same team which lined w
against The Tigers on Saturday will bt
in the field against the wearers of the
Crimson. The tenn will not be given
n hard work to speak of for the next
two days, but on Thursday they wild
have their regular work and on Friday
they will rest.
Last week the team was coached So
as to best oppose a fast back field and
a light line, but this week will be pitted
against a heavy line, so the coaches
will have to be careful in training tle
men. 40 as not to let any of them be-

This was the first time that I saw
Young Corbett' fight since he robbed
me of my title. Corbett's showing, |
must admit, was not as good as 1 ex-
pected to see him make. but when l say
that | do not mean to roast him and
say, that he Is not a great fighter. for
he Is.
There were two things which Cor
bett was greatly handicapped with, mis-
poor condition and the TACT that he
boxed one of the %cleverest feather
weight boxers l ever saw. Corbett's
lack OF condition prevented him from
putting Boyle to sleep. II he had been
In good shape he would have surely
knocked out Boyle in the first round
after 'Crockey' got on his feet from the
blow on the Jaw.
"Cor6ett, In order to win fights in the
future. must train for them and not
think he can knock out these second
rate lighters when out Of condition. l
hope that Corbett will train for what
ever battles he has hereafter. for II he
doesn't he Is liable to be knocked out
by a third-rate fighter. I rooted hard
for him to beat Boyle, as ! would liked
to have seen him put Boyle out before
the sixth ound."

Terry McGovern. the ex-featherweight
champion, was given an idea last night
in Philadelphia how he lost the cham
plonshlp to Young Corbett" last
Thanksgiving Day. Terry occupied a
ringside seat at the Washington Sport
ing Club in Philadelphia last night and
witnessed the bout between "Corbett'
and "~Crockey' Boyle. 1t was the first
opportunity that McGovern has had of
seeing his ]conqueror in action since he
defeated him, and he enjoyed 1t.
Terry went through the six POUNDS
just as v%iciously as II he was fighting
in the ring. His swings, jabs and up
percuts at Boyle during the battle were
as much enjoyed by the $500 persons
as the fight Itself. McGovern was the
most surprised man in the building
when Boyle lasted the six rounds He
thought that ''Corbett" would surely
knock him out after the two knock
downs In the first round. Terry
coached "Corbett' throughout the
fight.
The following Is the opinion of Terry
McGovern. as dictated by the ex-cham-
p!on to an Evening World reporter on
The evening world., 1902-11-18

Danny Maher is the first Ameri-
can rider who has ever had the dis
tinction of being jockey to the King
OF England. Another distinction he
has gained was in earning the big
gest amount Of money in one year on
the turf. His superior Workmanship
set the English horse owners clam
oring for his services. and when not
engaged by his own stable he nearly
always was offered a mount. AS a
consequence Danny is coming home
In a few days with a whole bunch Of
hve-pound notes in his pocket. Ac-
cording to authentic reports he won
$125. 900 in the saddle this year. That
Is Just two md 'one-half times the
amount the President OF the United
States or the Governor-Genera of
Canada gets e. a years service. 1t
Is a great deal more than any bank
president in the world secures, and

CORNELL DOESN'T KNOW
PENNSYLVANIA METHODS
tspeeLal 70 rhe ErenInE world.l

ITHACA, Nov. lS.-There is a great
deal OF uncertainty at Cornell regard
ing the methods to be pursued In the
present weeks training. The Ithacans
have taken no precautions to ascertain
the style Of attack used by Pennsyl-
vania. hence the coaches will be ut "A
loss to know what formations to use
against the varsity.
An effort will be made to obtain a
report from Glen s. Warner. the Indian
coach. in this connection. 1t is felt
that he will be able to throw much
light on Penn's methods. Little will be
done in Ithaca until this report Is re-
The fact that the players in Ithaca
have assumed a state OF mind Of the
greatest confidence Is a cause for great
worry on the part OF the coaches.
"A spirit OF over-confdence will spoil
ALL" said Trainer Moakley to-day, for
that was what defeated us In the In
Ola and Princeton games"
The evening world., 1902-11-18

and the fact that he is one of the
foremost jockeys in England speaks
for his ability.
Maher was always more like n girl
than a boy. He was a handsome
youngster, with innocent brown eyes
and q complexion that a society
queen would envy. He looked deli
cate, yet he had the strength of a
boy twice his age. His success lay in
the fact that he had a perfect pair Of
hands, a seat that was centaur-like.
and the ar of ~coaxing was to him a
science. He could make a horse hang
on and try when the animal was
really looking for a hole in the fence.
His judgment of pace was excellent
and won him many a race.
Maher comes home every winter.
He would be a welcome addition to
the ranks of riders here If he would
only stay. but he prefers England as
a racing point.

HARVARD STRIVING TO

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Nov. 1s.-Three
days before the big game with fale
finds Harvard without a centre and the
Crimson coaches in a perfect quandary
ms to who will play the position TINS
year. Sugden's work in the Dartmouth
game last Saturday showed him to be
far below the necessary standard, ana
Yesterday when the varsity lined UP
against the scrub two new men were
given precedence over him. The first
of these was Force. The other was
Carrick, the big 200 FOUNDER who Joined
the squad from the freshman eleven.
Harvard's coaches evidently think
Carrick has the right stuff in him. for
yesterday they placed him at centre on
the scrub even before Sugden was given
a chance.
Still another thing shows hat Har-
vard is still unsettled over the central
strength OF the line. This was the an
p~earance of Daring Green. centre VI

arrived post haste from Washington
and jefferson College to augment the
already large force of coaches which Ii

will make a strong effort to develop
a good centre before the end Of thB
week.
all the more serious is, the, physical
condition of Barnard, the big guard.
Barnard has been thought for some
time to be In poor condition. ana his
showing In the Dartmouth game proved
that the rumors concerning him were
correct. In that contest he played
wretchedly. As a result he was given
a complete rest yesterday.

HARVARD MAY
PROTEST GLASS.
Charge Is Made that Great Yale
Linesman Once Accepted
Money for Playing.

Yale Is said to be in danger of losing
Glass for the Harvard game. and It
would be hard to imagine a greater
calamity for the blue eleven. Glass is
a tower of strength and tore great holes
in the Princeton line at will last Sat
urday.
The New Haven men nave had the
tip from friends al Cambridge that a
protest would be filed It once against
Glass. and that every effort would be
made to bar him from next Saturdays
game.
/. Professionalism Is the charge, and 1t
is claimed that the Yale man played
on a football team while he was at the
Syracuse University and with other
members of The team received 500 for
playing.
Having thus played for money, the
HARVARD people say Glass cannot com
pete with an amateur team.
No protest has been received at Yale
as yet. but the authorities there lost no
time in investigating the matter as
soon as 1t was rumored.
A searching investigation was made,
and the Yale committee reports the
charges to be absolutely ~unfounded,
and that Glass cannot be prevented
from playing.
While the loss Of Glass would be the
worst thing perhaps hat could harper
to Yale Just now. she would probably
be able to win the game from Harvard
anyway. for the latter eleven appears
to be hopelessly outclassed for the com
ing struggle. The betting is now 8 10
on Yale and will doubtless be . to / be,
fore the game Saturday.

"CROCK" BOYLE GAVE "YOUNG
CORBETT" A HARD FIGHT.
Philadelphia Boxer, FIoored Twice in First

Philadelphia sporting men might well
be proud Of "Crockey" Boyle, the little
feathcrweight Of their city. He met
Young Corbett." the champion of the

last night. No decision was given, for
that Is mo- permissible in bouts In Phil
adelphia. but had the law been broker
and a verdict announced. anything
worse than a draw would have been
unfair to Boyle.
'Corbett's' poor showing was nothing
more than his close friends have been
looking for. 1t would be too harsh TO
say that going the pace" was the
cause Of 1t, but late hours, too
many big cigars. refusal to train
for any fight but the one with
McGovern are responsible for his
lack of good form. There has been
nothing in his exhibitions that would
lead the u~nacqualnted to believe that
"Corbett" was the superior OF any boy
in his class. He is not the same boy
that fought McGovern last Thanks
giving Day, and II he would get back
in good favor with all his friends he
had better get into shape for his fights
hereafter. If he doesn't somebody may
hand him a good one as one of the ex-
ponents APPLY remarked last night.

1t a couple Of times on Boyle's jaw in
the first round n Boyle took to the
floor for a recuperatlon period. When
the gong sounded the end of the round
Boyle was happy in his WEAKNESS, but
the second saw him in different humor.
He remembered seeing Lenny and
Young Erne" hug the champion and
last six rounds, and that was what he
started In to do. He did it so often that
he might have been disqualified without
an objection from the crowd. "Coroett"
chased the Quaker ali around the ring,
but could not land the punch. Boyle
blocked c~leverly and earned the plaudits
of the crowd.
When the third round started Boyle
began to remember that he had a good
left hand. He jabbed with an accuracy
that soon made 'COrbett's" nose assume
a very brilliant hue. That only angered
the champion, who went faster after his
man. But he could not land his punch
on the vital point. 1t went to Boyle's
nose. and the force OF Il fractlred the
organ.
Then "Corbett," all out by his own
exertions, decided to take things easier
and only swung and hooked when he
saw Boyle within reaching distance.
Once In a while he would send a bow
to Boyle's fractured nose, but Boyle in
piston rod. Between his blows Boyle
went to good footwork, and In that way
evaded many of "Corbett's" most dan
gerous blows.
That was the way matters went for
the fourth, fifth and sixth rounds. and
at the end, although Boyle had a nose
10 be mended. he made up for his injury
in the spectators minds by his foot
work and excellent left-hand jabbing.
bett' cannot get away from a left-hand
jab. He usually bumped right Into them.
and very few escaped his face.
