JOHNSON IS NOT TO SELL.
Denies Rumor of His Giving Up
 Academy Alleys

Al Johnson, one of the oldest and most popular bowling alley owners in this state last evening denied the re- port or rumor that he was going to sell his Academy alleys. When questioned he replied 't have heard of the rumor but the fact of my selling out Is still unknown to me When I am going to give up my alleys will let you know
 It has been rumored that Johnson has run into debt by the other alley owners and bowlers of this city, but this seems improbable. Johnson has for years been thriving through his al leys and the business which he does this year does not warrant the as sumption that he Is not pulling though with even expenses. New Haven, the center of bowling and the origin in this state, is full of bowling crazed fans who dwell at the various alleys throughout the city Johnson has been pltronized as much as any other alley and it Is well known fact that alleys such as the Tuxedo are thriving.
 It has been rumored also that sev- eral of the well known bowlers in this city have been endeavoring to put Johnson out of business, at least some of the state papers have been thusly informed. These rumors seem to have been caused through enmity towards Johnson, but they have no basis End are branded as false,

SARSFIELD ATHLETIC MEET
TO BE A GIGANTIC SUCCESS
Leading Stars from Every Part of the Country Entered
 in Big Event.

Nothing in the line of athletics has ever been offered to the public of New Haven to compare with the big event of the Sarsfeld Guard in the armory on December 10. From every part of the country, wherever an athlete has distinguished himself in the forefront of champions, his entry has been sought, and in most all cases success fully by the committee in charge. The result is a long list of champions will be ready for the fray on that evening.
 Dorland of the Pastime A. C., the national champion for the quarter and the best long sprint man, in the cbun- try, is down for the 22O-yards and quarter mile. He has hopes of meet ing Taylor, the great colored runner from the University of Pennsylvania Taylor has the intercollegiate record He made it when defeating Doc Co- nolan, and Dorland, who is fully con fident is anxious to clip the wings of the college flyer.
 Con Leahy, the great high jumper is reported in the pink of perfection, and he will have little trouble in dis- posing of his antagonists, the chief of whom will be Stevenson. Leahy is anxious to lower the figures of Mikey Sweeney for the worlds high jump and record. He has toyed with them for years. Now he thinks the oppor- unity is ripe for improving upon them and special effort to do so will be made in the armory Officials of the A. A. U. will be in attendance to see that Leahy gets a fair show in case the record should go to smithereens,"
 Matt MeGrath, the big genial weight-thrower the greatest man at the game that the world has ever pro- duced, will be seen in the shot put. McGrath's speciality, of course, Is the hammer, but the New York A. C.. athlete has an all-round tendency and his shot putting prowess is not to be scorned. McGrath Is the man who will bear the brunt of the fray for the American team in the weight-throw- ing contest at England next year, and anybody looking at his sturdy shdul- ders and sinewy arms must feel glow of confidence to think the American team has such man to defend our national honor.
 Melville Sheppard, the phenome- nal half mile runner the king of the cinder path, will start from scratch in the half He will be opposed by Frank Sheehan of Boston. Kirjossoff of Yale, OConnel of the Xavier, Muzzy of New York and Mason of the naval reserves, the best man at the distance that New Haven has ever produced.

BIG TIsTIo TOURNAMENT.
Pastime Athletic Club Offers Splendid
 Card for Monday Evening.

The fstic exhibition to be given by the Pastime Athletic club Monday evening December 2, at Music hall, promises to be the most successful event in the line of bouting this sea- son.

 There will be two preliminary bouts. The first one will go eight rounds at l07 pounds and will be between Joe Ferrer of England and Joe Shea of Waterbury. The second and semi-fnal bcut will be between Kid Murphy of this city and Kid Cushing of Spring. field for six rounds at 11O pounds.
 The entire card is one of the best, If not the best, offered by any club in this city. There will be some terrific mill ing in all of the bouts. The interest in the event is great and tickets for the series are selling rapidly.
 The fact that Tom Sharkey will ref cree ought to and will cause increased interest in the event Bill Crowley of Hartford, the well known sporting man, is matchmaker.

.HICH SCHOOLS 10 BATTLE
N. H. H. vS. NAUGATUCK
Conquerors of Mepiden VII Struggle to Break Locals
 Splendid Record.

The game with the fast Naugatueh High school football team this after noon at o'clock, will be the last game of the season for the New Haven f5iga school eleven. It is hoped that at this final game there will be the largest att tendance of the season. Every student of the high school should if possible, attend and thus exhibit that schools spirit which has been lacking some- what during the past season.
 The game to-day Is important in that if New Haven wins they will have vanquished an eleven which has ac- oonplished similar feat on the Meri- iden team who .tussled but was beaten by New Britain in the final champion ship game of the state school league. The Naugatuck eleven held the cham pionship of the school league, New Britain down to goal from the field, and New Haven will have to buck up against one of the strongest teams ir the state.
 The record of the local high school thus far this season is an enviable one. They have beaten every high school eleven that has dared to tackle them and will no doubt be able to say the same after to-day's battle. New Britain and Meriden refused to play New Haven, probably fearing defeat, and New Haven can now claim cham pionship of the state.
 The cause of New Haven success Is due in great part to their close at- tention to the plays of the big college elevens which they see play here prin- cipally the Yale eleven. From watch ing them they have gained valuable points which handicap their opponents and take them by surprise.
 The lineup of the New Haven team for this afternoon will be: Left end, Muse; left tackle, Davis; left guard. Frankel; center, FIannigan or Maron- ey; right guard. Chandler; right tac- kle, Bird; right end, Alderman; quar- terback, Connolly; left halfback, Faxe; right halfback, Connor; fullback, Mes singer (captain.)

SPORTING NEWS


a hard game all the season both on the offense and defense. The other guard is Thompson of Cornell, who has open- ed holes in every line the men from Ithaca have been up against. Goebel of Yale has the strength and the build to take precedence over both Erwin and Thompson, but during the season just closed has not demonstrated his ability to use it.
 Grant of Harvard lands at center Around him during the season the Crimson eleven has been built. He has been tried again and again, and tho team which went up against him has struck a wall Saturday Yale went against him and Dunbar had the advan- tage, but Grants work all through the season gives him the position.
 Were a captain to be chosen for this All-American team, to the writer it seems that Btglow of Yale should have the honor. He has explained a cham pionship team this year, and enthused the men so that with a score of 10 to 0 against them they won in a second half
 In two other departments Yale also takes first place One of these is the coaching system, and the other the corps of trainers, headed by Johnnie Mack.

CORNELL EASILY
 WINS BIG MEET
Six Ithacans Finish Among the First Thirteen in Cross
 Country Run.
PENNSYLVANIA IS SECOND
Vale, Syracuse, Harvard, Co., lumbia, M. I. T. and Prince
 ton Follow in Order.

Princeton, N. J., Nov 27.-Six Cornell men finished among the first thirteen out of a field of sixty eight contestants in the ninth annual intercollegiate cross country run here to-day and won the meet with ease. Cornelps score was 39 points.
 Pennsylvania was second with 61 points and Yale third with 135 points The others finished in the following order; Syracuse, Harvard, Columbia, Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Princeton Guy Haskins of Penn sylvania, was the individual star of the race Through the six and a half miles of muddy going he kept close to Whitely of Princeton, who led the field around the course, and in the last quarter mile gradually drew away and rolnped home 8 winner by 300 yards. His time was S5 minutes 1-5 seconds
 Whitely of Princeton, Colpitts, Trube, Young and Halstead of Cornell and Jones and Haskins of Pennsylvan- ia, kept together for the first five miles and only in the last mile did they sep arate. Whitely was running second until hundred yards from the tape when both Colpitts and Halstead pass ed him. Trube, Young and Jones fol- lowed closely on his heels.
 Out of the sixty-eight men who started, sixty-four finished. The new rule making it necessary for six men on each team to count in the scoring instead of four as in other years great ly handicapped some of the teams. The time was taken for ffty-three of the sixty-four men who finished.
 Yale had been beaten in dual run by Princeton and her taking of third place, was somewhat a surprise, Syra- cuse entered cross country running for the first time in her history this year and was good fourth.
 Many persons saw the race and the array of colors of the various colleges made the event a beautiful spectacle.
 The points scored by the eight con- testants were as follows.
 Cornell, 39; Pennsylvania, 61; Yale 135; Syracuse, 173; Harvard, 182; Co., lumbia, 227; Massachusetts Institute of Technology 22S; Princeton, 2S1,
