FIVE AMERICAN CUP
TIE GAMES TOMORROW

TIVE American Cup tie contests are
on the soccer football card for
tomorrow, in and around Newark.
The only big game that is scheduled to
be played in Newark tomorrow will be
the northumberland Camden A. c..
game, with Wiedenmayer's Park as the
scene of the battle. The Camden team
has not appeared in this city this sea-
son and many fans will TURF out to see
the visitors play. George Phillips, of
Trenton, will referee the contest. The
game will start at 3 o'clock. 1t will be
the second round of the American cup
competition for both teams.
On the West Side avenue grounds, in
Jersey City, the Hibernians of Phila-
delphia will meet the Jersey A. c. In
the second round of the American Cup
competition. Both teams are strong
combinations. 1t is said hat the Jer-
seys were offered a big ash considera-
ton to transfer the game to Philadel-
phia, where a larger crowd would at
tend, but the Jerseys refused to con
slider the offer.
The True Blues. of Paterson, will visit
the Brooklyn football team on the Mar
quette Oval tomorrow The Brooklyns
play a scrappy and gingery game. and
the Patersonians will have to be on
the lookout every minute If they expect
to win.
AT Paterson the Wilberforce eleven
will play the Bronx United F. c., of
New York. at Ryle Park. AT Willard
Park the Paterson Rangers n the
Corinthians of Philadelphia will fight
it out. 1t will be a hard thing for the
Paterson fans to decide which game to
attend, as both are almost certain to
be hummers.
Owing to forfeiture by the Ledger
woods of Brooklyn, who were scheduled
to meet the West Hudsons, the Harri-
son aggregation has entered the third
round of the competition rather easily.
The Clark A. A. soccer team will play
q team from the steamship Mauretania
on the Clark A. A. grounds. The time
set for the kiek-off is 3 O'Clock.

This will put everything up to John

fight Langford within thirty days. which
is suitable to Langford, if Woodman
posts the $40. 900, which must go as a

have to crawl out of the match is that
Langford will demand that the side bet
go at the odds prevailing the day of the

money be wagered at evens.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 27.-The
Powell Wolgast set-to, which will take
place at Dreamland Monday night, is
attracting almost as much attention as
the Johnson ctchel bout Of a month
ago. Though seats were not placed on
sale until Wednesday, more than so per
cent. of the reserved section has already
been disposed of. Betting on the event
also is much livelier than in any recent
pugilistic card. Powell is a prime ia
vorite with coast fight fans. and heavy
commissions sent in during the past

odds on his chances from 10 to 5 to
