THE COMMUNAL CHURCH.
Plans fer Carving on Work of the
Several Departments.

Members of The Brotherhood of the
Communal Church have perfected their
plans for carrying on the different de-
partments of the Men and Religion
movement which is to be their task for
the winter.
Their aim is. 50 far as possible. to
secure the united effort, not only of all
minister's and churches but of all the
different organizations within the city
which are in any way working for the
upbuilding of our common life.
Through the fellowship of a number of
men in the city during the past few
wears. strong desire. has been growing
for some one organization which may
bind together all the good people and
good forces of the community for the
tasks which are common to us all
The Communal Church has been built
upon a free and inclusive plan which
gives this common ground Of united study
and service without in any way interfer-
| ing with the independent life OF any
other existing institution. It is only a
means through which such institutions
and all persons may work together in be-
| half of all good causes.
it has become painfully evident to the
| best people Of cur city that there ought
not To be II different churches and Al
different charitable institutions within
our city all working by themselves for
objects which are common to the life of
! the whole city.
Such condition means not merely
petty ieaIousieS and wrong ideals Of true
citizenship. but worse than all things else
results IN ineffective service. and by nee
esstv, a waste of resources. While re-
naming loyal To orr own separate insti-
tutions we are fast being compelled TO
cultivate and establish feelings and bonds
of common fellowship.
The Communal Church has precisely
this growing necessity in mind Its great
watchword is cooperation and unity Of
all good people in behalf of all good
causes Let families and churches
schools and charities. industry and poll
ties. unite hands and forces for a purer
and nohler city In which to rear OR chill
dren and serve the public welfare.
The departments of work which have
been elected give every assurance that
all the varied interests of the city will
be efficiently related and also adequa tely
represented Nearly all the churches and
fraternities within the city are already
represented by the membership of the
Order.
The following men are officers of the
chairmen of the seven departments of

KENNEDYBY ASHADE

BOUT FAST AND FURIOUS

Which Would Have Counted in
Longer Contest.

NEW YORK, November 3O-Tom Ken
nedy. clever, shifty boxer won the pop
ular decision over Al Palzer. plugging,
type. at the Royale A. c. of Brooklyn.
last night. The bout was a slasher and
the margin of victory slight. In a longer
battle Palzer might have won by superior
skill. Opinion was divided. Some thought
that the aggressive Palzer earned the
verdict. but Kennedy landed the greater
number of clean hits.
Kennedy was cool. clever and crafty.
He boxed well and with both hands. but
he is, scarcely of championship caliber.
He lacks the stamina and snap to his
punch which enables a boxer to finish
a man with blow. Palzer is greatly
improved man who Is coming all the
a punch. He is a little awkward at pres
emf, but with the experience of a few
more fights he will make a match for the
best in the business.
A long, tiresome delay preceded the
bout. Tom O'Rourke, manager of Palzer.
insisted that the men fight straight rules
and protect themselves at all times.
Dan McKelich, who guarded the interests
of Kennedy. remained firm for clean
breaks. Neither would yield. Finally
Frank S. ONeill. state commissioner
of boxing. was appealed to. Mr.. ONeiii
declared that clean breaks. as laid down
in the rules of the commission, would
be adhered to, and the bout went on.
Kennedy had the better of the first and
second rounds. Palzer forced the pace.
but Toms nervousness faded away, and
he stabbed the plunging Iowa man on
the face with clever. snappy
drew blood from his nose. The latter
plunged, charged and ripped away and
tried right and left, but Kennedy was like
a shadow for all his 195 pounds. He
sidestepped and ducked leads like
featherweight. He beat his man to the
punch and landed the cleaner blows.
Never for a moment did Palzer cease to
rush in, but his leads were brushed aside
and counters sifted through his guard.
Palzer shifted his attack to the body
and had the best of the work at close
range. His aggressive tactics reaped
their own reward, and I'm the fifth round
Palzer came to the fore. He punched his
man around the body considerably. and
under the terrific grueling Kennedy
tried hard. He boxed prettily, but his
blows lacked steam, and the hardy Pal
ger bored In and had the better of it. 1t
was tired Kennedy that sought his cor
ner at the bell.
In the final round Palzer charged in to
fight at close range, but Kennedy had his
own ideas on the matter and stood off at
long range to put his faith In his superior
skill at boxing. His plan proved to be
effective. The furious Palzer ripped and
plunged in close, but on his toes and with
his guard well before him. Tom stood
him of with a short. straight punch to
the head. An inside left-hand hook to
the jaw crashed home repeatedly. He
was the stronger man of the pair, and In
a few more rounds might have won in
decisive style, but Kennedy outboxed him
and landed the greater number OF clean
blows

good material back for next falls team.
the Red and White should have little
trouble making its strongest stand in
years. The bulk of this years eleven
will be back next fall.
The Western team as it stood at the
be ginning of the season was composed
almost entirely of green men, and yet
they nodded themselves into such a ma
chine that they made an excellent show

this year will be back when practice

which 1t Is probable one of the best
elevens that has ever represented the
school will be built
Howard and Larkin are the regular
backfield men who will be back, but there
is one other who has been used as SUBJ
St1tute this fall who is sure to make good
next season and be very valuable to the
team. Larkin will make a good man in
the quarterback position next season,
while it is certain that Howard also will
show a great deal of Improvement, as
this is the first year that he has played
the game. and at that has done extraor-
dinarily WE'LL Dowell is the other man
who will almost Of a surety be a regular
next season. He should make one Of
the best men in high school ranks with
little more experience.
Smith and Pate, the two tackles, will
both be out for two more seasons, and
both have done some mighty good work
this year. Smith is an exceptionally
good man on the defense, while Pate does
not fall far below the class of his run
ming mate. Brooks is another crack line
man who has another season to pay
on the West End eleven. Both the reg
ular ends will be lost by graduation, and
ing two men as good as Wiley and
Stone. Brady and Fredericks will be
back also. Fredericks has played CEN
ter regularly and Brady has not been
taken out of single game from the
right guards position.
1t will be difficult to replace McArdle,
Stone. Wiley, Kraentziin and Lascola,
but with Beauregard as a fullback IN
