PAL MOORE IS BEATEN.
Tommy Langdon Has All the Better
of Fight.

PHILADELPHIA. December .22.-Tom-
my Langdon and Pal Moore both of this
city fought d fast siX-round bout before
the National Athletic Club last night, and
the honors were all Langdon's.
The latter. though out weighed by about
five pounds. kept Moore's head rocking
from the first to the last round. and it
was only the lack of steam that kept
Moore from going into dreamland.
In the second round Moore dropped
Langdon with a right swing to the jaw.
but the latter was up in three seconds and
fought Moore viciously that he had
the advantage of the round
The third round was even. but lin the
fourth LansdOn landed time and again
without a return, his left jabs seeming to
puzzle Pal. In this round Moore wres-
tied Langdon to the floor and was roundly
Missed by the spectators.
From the beginning to the end of the
fight Moore tried constantly to bore in
on his clever opponent. but Langdon
would drive his long left into Pals face
and occasionally rock his head with a
right swing and this prevented Moore
from getting close enough to do any dam
age.
Langdon brought the blood from Moore's
mouth I'm the opening round. and had his
lips BADLY swollen at the end of the fight.

LEAD OVER De ORC
Challenger for Title Scores so

Total 100 to so.

NEW YORK. December 22-John w.
Daily, challenger for the three-cushion
billiard championship. increased his lead
so much last night in the second block OF
fifty points at Doyle's rooms that even
the most ardent supporters of Alfred De
Orc. the champion, have given up hope
for his retaining the title. DAILY Just
doubled De Oros score last night making
30 to o. and leaving the total for the
two nights play leo to 60 in favor of
DAILY.
DAILY showed last night that his first
block was no freak for him. for he did
even more brilliant work in his second
session. How strongly the lrishman
played may be judged from the fact that
he had an average Of one for his hrst
forty-two innings. At this point De Orc
had counted only thirteen times.
The champion INDUCED in what scented
an unnecessary amount of safety play
1t made no difference to him apparently
that he was falling hopelessly b>hind,
for instead of going after caroms as
boldly as the needs of the occasion de-
manded. he was content to try 10 tie the
balls up in difficult positions. Once he
attempted one of these safeties and failed
to drive the object ball to the cushion.
Daily, according to the rules demanded
that the balls be replaced anu LIE OIo

then it would not have counted.
De ORC was in very fLssy mood yes
terday and complained Of both the balls
and the table. He insisted on having
several sets weighed and measured, and
urged that a spirit level be used to gauge
the level qualities of the table. Every
thing was found shipshape. At the close
of the nights play De Orc demanded
that the table be covered up Immediately
and that no one even look at it until play
is resumed tonight

PHYSICIAN AT RINGSIDE.
Philadelphia Makes New and Unique
Rules to Govern Prize Fights.

PHILADELPHIA, December o2.-Direc-
tor of Public Safety Clay, after consult
ing with the sporting EDITORS of the vari-
Gus newspapers in this city. drew up a
new set of rules to govern boxing con-
tests here The most important change
is that which requires physician to be
constantly at the ringside- during the
progress of the bouts to examine the con-
testants whenever they are knocked
down, and to inform the referee as to
their physical ability to continue.
Another innovation is that which pro-
-yides that the padding on the floor of the
ring shall extend for distance of three
feet beyond the ropes. No boy under six
teen years of age snail be allowed to COM
pete, and all ''grudge" and championship
contests are forbidden. In the lightweight
class and under no one will be permit
ted to meet an opponent who is ten or
more pounds heavier.
Director Clay and Asst Supt. O'Leary
informed the promoters of the various
clubs that the new rules would have to
be lived up to, and that both boxes. and
club owners would he protected in their
rights.

ARCHER TO COACH
CHICAGO PITCHERS
Cub Boss Will Give Young
Heavers Tryout on
Chances Farm.

BUFFALO. y. Y, December 19.-Jtmmy
Archer. the crack catcher of the Chi
cago Nationals, will put in the winter
months under salary in the salabrious
cline of California.
Jimmy has been in Buffalo about a
week, and expects to stay here during
the holidays. He has received word
from chubby Charlie Murphy. the owner
of the Chicago National League club, to
be ready to HE himself to Frank Chance $
ranch in California and take charge OF
the colony of young twirlers Chance
has ordered to report to him by Janu-
airy I.
MANAGER Chance has corralled no less
than a dozen young twirlers. some picked
up by draft from leagues close to the
hi: circuits. some purchased from
clubs away down on the list and other
hired from the back lots on the rec
ommendation of Cub scouts and others.
Owner Murphy and Manager Chance in
tend to begin the work of developing
these youngsters right away and keep
them busy right down to the opening of
the season. If they have the real stuff
in them they will show 1t before the
snow disappears i'm this section. and if
they haven't the sooner it is discovered
the greater the saving to the club
Manager Chance asked specially that
Archer be detailed to the job of handling
the young pitchers. and owner Murphy
has sent word to Archer to be ready to
start for California. This designation is
distinct tribute to the high position
Archer occupies in the regard of Murphy
and Chance. The Cub manager has fire.
auentlv gone OH record jas saying that
he considered Archer the greatest throw
ing catcher in the busint SIS. That he
also relies. on Jimmy's knowledge of the
game and his ability to instill this knowl-
edge into others is proven by his select
ing Archer to take charge of his pitching
recruits.
Archer is now. getting his things in
shape for the trip. Mrs. Archer will &C
company him. and It will be like Va
cation for the two. A vacation with full
pay, too. Pretty soft for Jimmy.
