one semi-f1nal, and frankie Burns an
another good boy as the other semi

A. c., Thirty ninth and Market streets,

The change of Frankie Burns in
stead of Joe Coster and Tommy O'Toole
was made because Coster will have to
undergo an operation for appendicitis
and cannot meet O'Toole. Frankie
Burns should prove an even greater
attraction, and he will be matched to
meet some classy opponent.

gives promise of being one of the most
accurate and graceful inflelders, has
signed to play either second base or
shortstop for the Scranton team of
the New York State League. Andy has
improved in his hitting quite a bit.
That, added to the experience Andy
gained last year with the Phillies and
q New England League team, should
give him 8 good start on the road to
success. We look for Andy to become
a wonderful fielder.
A meeting of the rules committee of

when the rules of the game will be
discussed and smoothed over. It looks
as If the four quarter arrangement will

box in Mexico when he arrives there
on February s. There is, an anti-box-
ing uprising in Mexico, and two Ameri-
cans were recently arrested and fined
$50 for giving a boxing exhibition,
A $25o,0O0 appropriation will probably
be made by Congress. and the munich
pality of Cleveland will probably give
as much more to bring the Olympic
games of 1916 to this country to be
held in the Forest City. Representative
Phil Rowland, of Cleveland, introduced
q bill to the House Saturday asking
for the appropriation. A meeting will
be held in Budapest on May 20 next to
decide where the Olympiad will be held.
There is said to be bad feeling
among the members of the American
Football Association. Though it. can
not be verified there is some talk of a
bolt of some kind from the parent
body. Future developments alone will
prove the truth of this. The protests
made by Scottish Americans and the
True Blues because of the condition of
the field last Sunday when they were
both put out of the cup tie competi-
ton by defeat were lost.
Pal Moore in Boston on Tuesday and
Patsy Kline in Philadelphia Wednes-

that is his program, he'd better look
out Wednesday, February 8, If he fights.
