dnced by the company in an ef-
fort to get a check on collection
of cash fares by conductors on
trains and the plan is TO have
t h g auditor at certain times,
without warning to the conduc-
tor take charge Of the train for
one or more trips. The collec-
tons of the trip will afford the
company a means Of comparison
and is believed will detect any
petty grating which may be go

TO DISCUSS SERIES
Between LEAGUES

NEW YORK. November 1S.-When the
big leagues meet i'm joint session in this
city during their regular and respective
winter meetings the second week in De-
cember a subject which promises to come
I'm for its share OF the discussion is the
proposed series of interleague games.
There is considerable talk along the
big roadway about an interleague series
of fifty-six games being played between
the sixteen clubs, which comprise the
National and American leagues. To do
this 1t would, OF course be necessary to
shorten the two big organization sea-
sons to something like 112 games.
The idea Is to have each club In the
American League meet each club in the
National League i'm two series of four
games each. one-half to he played on
each clubs home field. This undoubtedly
would cause no end of enthusiasm and
interest on the part of the fans. While
financially it might not materially aid
winning team, II would beyond a doubt
aid losing club. Every one will admit
that in a walk-away race, tail-end or
even a second division club barely makes
expenses after il is once definitely known
that the team in question is out of the
race for the pennant. But an intercity
and interleague series, coming as II
would just as the spurts for the gon-
falOns are beginning to take some def
mite form, would revive waning interest
and shekels would once more begin to
drop with a Joyous unkle into the cof
ferS OF the magnates.

MEL SON DECIDES TO
FIGHT FRED WELSH

NEW YORK, November 1S.-If Battling
Nelson means what he says he will agree
to match of forty-five rounds with
Freddie Welsh Of England for the light
weight championship Of the world. Mel
son, who referred a ten-round fight be-
tween Bert Reyes and Matty Baldwin at
Schenectady. y. Y, Tuesday night, an
nounced that he had decided to take
Welsh on and that as soon as the Eng
lishman arrives here next month q match
can be arranged. Nelson's sudden shift
comes in the nature of an agreeable sur
prise to r1ng followers, inasmucn as he
has studiously ignored Welsh's business
like challenges for more than two years.
But Nelson explains that Welsh is now
entitled to a fight I'm view Of his recent
victory over Johnny Summers in Eng
land, after which he was formally de-
clared champion lightweight of Great
Britain by Lord Lonsdale and other lead
ing members of the National Sporting
Club. Furthermore Nelson makes its plain
that the fight must call for forty-five
rounds or there will be nothing doing.
Welsh is a flrst-class boxer, says
Nelson, but that let's him out. If we
fight he'll probably run many miles
around the inside OF the ring to keep out
of harms way, at the same time 1abbing
out the points for which he is famous,
but in q forty-f1ve-round battle he can't
keep running forever and I'll finally land
him. | lust need one or two hard wal
lops in the right spot to finish this Brit
isner and forever stop his mouth / paid no
attention to his challenges In times past
because I didn't think he had a right to
fight for the worlds title, but now that
he is coming here as England's recognized
champion lightweight he can have fight
under the conditions ] name as the title
holder.
"Forty-flVe rounds at the lowest. The
weight must be 133 pounds ringside. and
I'll make Welsh a side bet of any amount.
I'll agree to fight within few months
after my theatrical engagements end and
any place will do, though California is
preferable because there can be no In
reference and big gate money is possible.
/ can begin training some time In jan
uary and will need perhaps a month to
get into my best shape. When Welsh
comes here AMI posts forfeit, as he
saws he will he'll md his money covered
by me without delay"
Welsh, who cleaned up $1,000 on his
mill with Summers, will sail from Eng
land about December ~. He Is quoted In
the London sporting papers as saying
that as soon as he arrives III this city he
will post a 5000 forfeit TO bind a match
with Nelson and will agree to any fair
terms. Promoter James CoNrOth when
he learned that q NelsOn-Welsh fight was
possible after all declared that the Colma
Club would 60 after the match with a
handsome offer, as in the promoters Opin-
ion such a glove contest would cause
world of interest.

HARVARD STUDENTS
HAVE FAITH IN TEAM

CAMBRIDGE. Mass, November IS
The first open practice I'm weeks for the
Harvard team came yesterday afternoon.
The stadium was opened to the students
and graduates, and the first team ran
through signals for about fifteen minutes
and left the field. \ heavy coating of
hay covered the gridiron and the men
found the footing slippery. Then the
afternoon was rainy and little was ac-
cornplished.
Capt Fish was not out He went with
the varsity squad TO Medfield. Mass, this
morning Bush, substitute tackle. took
the place of the Harvard captain. During
the signal drill many long forward passes
were driven to the little substitute, which
he handled cleverly
The students gave their team rous-
ing send off. Cheering for the individual
players and the coaches was continual.
Harvard men may worry over their
captain. but they still have confidence in
the team and with the big man out feel
fairly confident of victory.
The rumor current that Capt. Fish :
lungs are ruptured and that he will be
unable TO take part in the Yale game Is
denied by the Harvard medical attendant,
who states that Fish is all right and will
be ready for the game Saturday.

DON'T WANT RULES CHANGED.
Western Coaches Think Foot Ball
Should Remain as It Is.

CHICAGO, November IS.-Changes in
the foot ball rules will be one OF the
important discussions at the annual ses-
sion OF the western intercollegiate confer
ence, otherwise known as the big eight"
which is to be held at the Chicago Beach
Hotel tomorrow. Faculty athletic repre-
sentatives from Chicago, Wisconsin, ILL.,
nois, Minnesota, Iowa. Indiana, Purdue
and Northwestern will gather at that
time to talk over the needs of athletics
IN the central west. and to consider the
applications of Notre Dame, Nebraska,
Marquette and Lawrence for admission
TO the conference, choose the city where
the next annual conference meet is to be
held and talk over foot ball rules and re-
forms.
No definite action on changes in the
rules can be taken at this meeting as II
does not possess authority to alter them
in any way. This is left to the Inter-
collegiate Athletic Association of the
eight" schools are members OF that or
gan.Zation, Prof. Stage OF Chicago and
Dr. Williams of Minnesota being dele
gates.
Discussion of the rules will give these
two leading coaches of the conference a
thorough understanding OF the attitude
OF the members Of the western confer
ence on proposed changes 1t Is generally
believed that the big eight will be OPP
posed TO any radical alterations from
presen. conditions The present style Of
play has only just started and coaches
generally believe they should have more
time to develop 1t before anything more
Of the radical sort is sprung on them.
From the east comes call TO revise
the rules so as to abolish tackling. which
Is said to be the most dangerous part of
the game. Capt Palmer T.. Pierce. presi-

but had a secret signal drill. The scrubs
afterward had a final scrimmage with
the third team. The squad left for Au-
burndale today.
1t was decided that Logan. who started
the season as regular right end. and who,
because of injuries in the Brown game,
has been in the Yale infirmary until a
few days ago. will not be in condition to
start the Harvard game. In his place
at right end Savage will start, as Vaughn
will be in no condition to play through
the game. When Naedel was taken out Of
the game Saturday Savage went to right
end. lie changed places with Capt. Coy.
who was at fullback. and so strengthened
both the line and the back field.
Both Logan and Vaughn went along
with the squad to Cambridge. Naedel is
the only substitute who is in good cOndi-
ton. II is proba BILE that Fitzpatrick will
play through the entire game, and II Is
quite likely he will be elected captain for
next year. The coaches have decided on
Howe tn start the game at quarterba ok.
since he is the best of the three who
played Saturday. Corey and Johnson
both were in the game. bue none Of the
three was of first string caliber.
Yale will start with the strongest ag-
g-egation possible. The combination of
Savage and Coy. interchanging. and the
halfbacks. Murphy and Phiibin. will be the
order. The Yale line. which played
against Princeton. will play against Har-
ward with the exception of right end.
Tony Haines will go up TO Cambridge
with the team, and so will Fred DAILY.
but there is absolutely no chance of their
being able to play.
The first substitute linemen will be
Brown and Spencer All the quarters
and string of halfbacks will go along.
The first halfback to get his will be
Harry Holt. who played on Capt. Coy's
freshman team and who mas been with
the varsity squad for the past three
years. II will be the final game for
nearly the whole team. which Is prac-
tically the same as Capt. Coy's fresh
man team three years ago.

Hard to Safeguard Foot Ball;
MacfarIand Seeks More Liqht

Finding practical difficulty in framing
an ordinance that will regulate the game
of foot ball so that it can be played
without fatal or serious accidents to
players, Commissioner mcfarland desires
further advice from foot ball experts
Unless ii can be clearly shown that IL is
possible to regulate the game by legisla-
ton so as TO prevent Gripping and killing,
Commissioner Macfarland SAYS he will
recommend that the game be abolished by
Law.
Views of DR.. w. B. Hudson.
DR.. William B. Hudson, who has had a
wide experience in high school foot ball
and in other foot ball Games in the Dis
trict as a director and as referee has
given his opinion to Mr.. mcfarland. Dr.
Hudson believes II is practicable to regu-
late the game so il can be safely PLAYED
AMI went so far as to say that IL the
present rules were strictly enforced by
referees there would be no Gripping or
killing Of players.
Commissioner mcfarland has held two
conferences with Corporation Counsel Z.
II. Thomas. A conclusion has not been
reached as to whether foot ball should
be regulated by the Commissioners under
their general powers granted by Con
gress, or whether legislation should be en-
acted by Congress. The main question
which they have been considering is
whether or not regulation or law can
be framed that will permit the game, ard
yet make II safe to life and limb
