Mike Gibbons Is l. Winner Over Lewis
St. Paul Cyclone Drops Willie For Count of Seven in
 Second Round

In a fast and clever ten-round bout, which went the limit, Mike Gib- bons of St. Paul defeated Willie Lewis of New York at the Fairmont A. C.. New York, last night. After drop ping Lewis for the count of seven in the second round, Gibbons just play ed with Lewis like a cat with a mouse and permitted the Gotham boxer to stay the limit.
 Gibbons showed that he is mas ter at the science of boxing. He hit Lewis when and where he pleased at all times. He twirled Willie around like a top with left and right to the jaw. Lewis was so dazed at times he was unable to find Gibbons.
 While the combatants did not make the stipulated championship class weight, the bout was in every sense of the word a championship affair. It merited this distinction, too, from the amount of action that was crowd ed into the ten electrifying rounds That Willie Lewis was not carried to his corner knocked out champion in the second round was due entirely to the fact that he had religiously prepared for a tough session. He was in the pink of condition and this alone enabled him to weather a fusi- Jade of clean blows on the point of the chin after Gibbons had dropped him to the canvas for a count of "seVen."

Lynch Expects
 To Be Re-EIected
Magnates of National League Who Meet December 12 Will Probably Give Him Another Term

President Thomas J., Lynch, of the National league, sent out letters yes terday notifying the club presidents of the National League that the an- nual meeting of the circuit is to be held in New York on Tuesday, Dec 12, beginning at o'clock in the af- ternoon At 10 o'clock the same morning the board of directors of the National League will convene
 Ban Johnson, the American league president, has as yet set no official date for the annual meeting of his association. It is generally under stood that the American League will convene a day later than the rival organization. There .is practically no business for either major league aside from schedule matters. Ban Johnson is trying to have the joint schedule meeting held at this time thus elimi- hating the usual Spring meetings of the two major leagues.
 Of course, the National league will have to follow its time honored cus- tom of electing . a president. But those on the inside declare that no serious opposition to Tom Lynch has developed as yet It is, also a cer- tainty that the National league sea- son in 1912 will be terminated at the same time as that of the younger ma- jor in order to have the worlds cham pionship series concluded as early as possible.
 Of far more interest to the general public will be the National Commis- sion meeting there on Dec H. Then the alleged ticket scalping scandals ot the recent worlds series will be

WHAT M'GRAW TH6UGHT OF ALExANDER'S WOFK

Alexander, the pitching sensation of the National League, is the real thing, umpires say. Little attention was paid to his first few victories, but he soon attracted attention.
 Umpire Bob Emslie tells of re- tort by McGraw last summer. Alex. ander had the Giants at his mercy.E It seemed as if Hank O'Day was calling nothing but strikes. while every one of Emslie's decisions on the bases appeared to go against the Giants. It was not tough enough that the Giants couldn't Fiit Als2- ander, but both unpiress were seeing everything Philadelphia's way.
 Late in the game McGraw shift ed from the third base coa ching lines over to first base, near where I was standing says Emslie. "He remr au- ed quiet while two men were retired, one on a close play at first. Think ing to be agreeable opened the com versation.

 "'That Alexander is quite a pitch er,' went on, thinking l might re lieve the sting of the impending de feat.
 "sYep,' replied McGraw.

turn and they would surely demand HobHtzel, Bescher or Mitchell. Out; fielder Jimmy Sheckard of Chicago has also been mentioned but Cincin- nati would have to give up some thing big for him, too.
 "Other men mentioned are Miller Huggins, the St. Louis second base man and Bill Sweeney of Boston. Both have a large following in Gin einnatii because they are native sons. The papers out there are great knockers and take delight in banning the manager and players. 1t ism i probable that Owner Hermann will name the new manager before the National lesg que meeting in New York, December 12."
 Downey and his fellow Cincinnati players went eon a transforming trip at the close of the league season. They cleaned up about $165 each. Downey was injured last season and could not do himself justice but he batted over 260 and will probably be back at his old job again next year.

 HANK O'DAY SPORTS
 Chicago, Nov. 29-Hank 'ODay, vet eran umpire of the National league, is the first of the arbiters of the big organiza tions to raise his voice against the proposed spring training plan for umpires. O'Day last night declared against the scheme in strong terms. In fact, he said he would quit the game before he would submit to a preseason trip.
 He said that if major league were to visit town with a team for an exhibition game he would be immedi- ately branded as unfit to give fair decisions. The thought that he would

Ii there were any question as to the ex- act meaning of this rule, however, all doubt would be removed by Rule 19, Section 4, which provides that when a forward pass hits the ground with in. the field of play, as did Camps pass Saturday, the ball shall be re- turned to the spot of the preceding down and the play shall count as a down.
 "Thus it seems, and always has been our opinion, that Rule has no application to such. play as that which has caused the discussion.

 The question at hand is the one whether Harvard, when Walter Camp, Jr., made that long forward pass to Avery early in the second half. and one. which became incompleted be- cause Avery dropped the ball, was not entitled to safety because Camp stood behind the goal line when ne made the pass.

Harvard has absolutely no claim to anything which might give her credit of a victory over Yale, as a result of last Saturdays game, according to Head Coach Percy D. Haughton of the Harvard team. He issued the following statement yesterday on the question of a safety which has arisen since last Saturday,:
 Owing to the many inquiries thas I have received regarding the decis- ion rendered when Yale attempted to make forward pass from behind her own goal line, it seems advisable to state frankly that Harvard is entire ly in accord with Referee Langford s ruling.
 We have always held that Rule. 6, Section g, of this years rules, under which the question arises, referred

They've got us all.guessing about the new manager of the Cincinnati team," says Tommy Downey, the To- cal boy who is home after a long sea son as shortstop of the Cincinnati club. There is a list of candidates as long as your arm," continued Downey. Every star player in the National league has been afsaentioned and they have even dipped into the American league for names.
 ''It is a. bad fix for the manage ment. They want to get a player manager in order to- get a leader and a star player for one salary. But the difficulty is this. They can't get star player without giving their whole club in exchange. If they trade Hoblitzel or Bescher the Cincinnati fans would make big howl.

 GREENWICH BUSINESS

A legal fight for the profitable pho- tographic business of the wealthy Greenwich residents, started to-day in the superior court when a hearing was held on B. Starr Sanford's peti- tion for an injunction against Willard P. Smith. Sanford wants the court to restrain Smith from starting a studio in Greenwich.
 The two were formerly in partner ship but they had disagreement and separated. It is said that the trou- bles became so violent that Sanford threw Smiths property out of the stu dio. Sanford claims the partnership contained a clause to the effect that Smith would not open a studio in Greenwich or within ten miles of that place.
