WINTER FOOTBALL WORK
 AT YALE TO COMMENCE
Capt. SpaIding and Trainer Mack Of Eli Eleven In Favor of This
 Practice.

Preliminary football practice at Yale will be started earlier than usual this year In fact, the call will be issued some time within the next few days. That this practice is important is shown by the statements of Jesse SpaIding. 1913 leader of next year team, and Trainer John Mack. Cap tain Spalding says:
 Tn a short time there will be a call isued for winter football practice The importance of this early, preliminary practice is great. and it is especially so this year, because quarterbacks must be developed. Besides this i'm portant feature, there will be an ex- celIent opportunity for slow men to increase their speed and to learn how to start. But above all, the thing to pay special attention to at present is to keep your work upI''
 Trainer Mack says on this subject of winter practice:
 Practice in winter is an excellent thing for men who are trying for po~ sitions in the line It tends to make them quick to adapt themselves to the directions of the coaches, at the same time giving them practice in the fine points of the game. As q result, they are just so much further ahead in the fall
 'Another opportunity offered is ad- ditional practice in handling and pass ing he ball. by the centers, bac'|s and ends. and in the recovery of fumbles-'

 Six Months

Abraham Attell. champion feather weight boxer of the world, who took part in the memorable bout with Sporting Club on Jan. IS, and Danny Goodman his second, were adjudged guilty yesterday of perpetrating a Take" and giving false and perjured testimony before the New York State Ath etic Commissioners. Frank S. O'Neil and Major Johi J. Dixon, the Commissioners who investigated the fight, debarred them from participat- ing in boxing bouts held Under the State for the term of six months and barred them from entering any clu b in the State during the time this rul- ing is in force.

 In conjunction with this drastic punishment meted out to AttelI and Goodman the Commissioners an- nounced that they would investigate the affairs of the National Sporting Club, under whose auspices the bout took place. This investigation will be along the lines of determining wheth- CT the officials of the club were in any manner responsible for the al- lesed flake" bout and to fully de- termine whether Tom O'RoTrke is or is not a director and an official cf which provides that no stockholder. director or official of club shall be the manager of or in any way i'm in a boxer.

ATHLETICS PITCHERS
 GOING BACK, SAYS GICOTTE

Here is what Eddie Cicotte of the Boston Red Sox says about =he worlds champions and their 1912 prospects:
 First of all, the Athletics pitchers will hardy be as strong in 1912 as they were in 1911. Coombs was only effective in spots in 1911, while Plank didn't show a great deal at the end of the season. Morgan iS an in-and- outer, thus leaving the pitching prob lem up to the young twirlers.
 Connie Mack has been getting a lot of young pitchers about him, and. I believe he realizes that he must take bolstering steps. Danforth and Mar tin and Salmon and the rest may prove to be wonders, and again they may be rank outsiders.
 "Parry Davis wi be missed by the Mackmen. His absence leaves the in field composed Of young noen. Ac- knowledging that Collins, Baker, Nc Innis and Barry are good and dange~- ous hitters; agreeing they are fine fielders they are liahle to falter when they miss the guiding hand of the veteran Davis
 Davis meant more to the Athletics than is generally known. He was a wise counsellor, and I believe iH is largeIy due to Harry that the Ath- letics secured such a wonderful in- l..iI The thought will he missing from the minds of the infielders that we'll if anything goes wrong, Rar---- will be there to advise us And this thought means much to a young ster.''

YALE AND PRINCETON
 PLAY HOCKEY TOMORROW
Game in New York Will Virtually Settle Intercollegiate
 Championship.

The intercollegiate hockey cham pionship will be virtually settled when Yale and Princeton meet in their an- nual game on Saturday night at the St Nicholas Rink, New York. No two teams more evenly equipped with expert playing material ever faced each other to decide the varsity hockey honOrs, and never were play CTS more confident of winning than the fourteen men who comprise the two teams.
 Princeton has won three games in the series, but with the exception of Columbia, they were victorious over the logical ta5lenders in the struggle. Yale has no defeats and only ore vic tory, but this was over the Cornell seven, winners of last years cham pionship and one of the strongest teams in the league. It required twenty-five minutes of overtime play to decide this game, and the Coura ge and stamina of Ya'e players were put to the severest test before Capt. Harman caged the disc which de- cided the game in their favor.
 The meeting of these two teams will attract the largest and most repre- sentative gathering of people that has been seen at a hockey game this sea- son, and it is obvious that the play CTS will do their utmost to distin- guish themselves by giving a superior exhibition.

 Bob Stowe, the fleet second baseman of the Mechanics, held quite a recep- ton last night when he came to town to play with the New Haven basket ball five. When he strolled up Fair field avenue from the railroad station he had to stop frequently to glad hand his friends. Bob says he is feeling fine and is anxious for the old bell to ring so he can don the spangles again at Newfield park. ''Ill make good start this season" he declares, ''and show them something. Last year got in a rut at the start and had to play like a streak during the final stages to make even a respectable record Stowe and Manager McCann had a conference last night regarding terms for the coming season. It is not probable that they will have any trouble in getting together.

He appears to have gained the inn pression that the Bridgeport club will carry a larger number of players than in former seasons merely Eecause the average number of men will be tried out Any small boy could have told this writer that every minor league manager in the country signs many player for spring practice.

Reu'bach May Not
 Retire To Minors
Manager Chance Threatens Chi cagO Pi cher Every Year to
 Make Him Hustle

The fact that Frank Chance has ask ed for waivers on two of his pitch ers-Reulbach and McIntire, to be ex- act-does not necessarily mean that he really contemplates letting them go. Asking waivers is a habit of the Peerless Leader. Every season he threatens Reulbach with the minors, with the usual result that immediate ly afterward Big Ed pitches gilt edg- ed ball. Rumor says that Chance an man that of all the twirlers, past and present, he is the worst; that he ought to be in az bush league and soon win be, and that he has just one more chance to make good.
 Reulbach thereupon pitches his arm off, wins his game and comes bacR looking for praise and adulation. Does he get it?. He does not. "So,'' says ing down on me, were you? Now you listen to me. The next time I have to take you out of a game it will cost you just S1O0; and that goes. " It may be, of course, that Chance really believes that the two twirlers have outlived their usefulness. In that case they may be found with Louisville this year.
 The waiver system is useful in more ways than one. If a manager desires to get a promising recruit out of the clubs farm for further instruction, he immediately asks waivers on a batch of players which includes both some of his best men and the recruit Tn indignantly refusing to waive on the veterans the other clubs often let the youngster slip by unnoticed. The manager thus places the recruit where he wants him and complacently with draws his request for waivers on the O hers.
 Chief Meyers great work, as a catcher for the Giants. was one of the sensations of last season, but there are many who believe that he has by no means reached the limit of his eff fectiveness. The old Boston player Tom Mccarthy. when he was coachins Dartmouth, first saw the dormant possibilities in the Chief and induced him to enter professional ball. Mey- CTS first played with Harrisburg in the Tri-State league. From there he went to the Butte club and later to St. Paul. From the latter club he came to the Giants. and under the guidance of McGraw became the great catcher that he is today.

BILLY DELANEY, NOTED
 TRAINER OF BOXERS, DEAD
Man Who Developed Jim JefTries and Other Fighters Expires in
 California

Oakland. Cal. Jan. 26.-William F. (BiIIy) Delaney. the famous trainer. died here early yesterday. He was 5S years old.
 Delaney had been i'll for several months and his death was not un- expected, While on a visit to the Fla t last year he contracted a severe cold, complications of which caused his death.
 Delaney trained many of the most promin ent fighters of the last twenty five years, including Johnson, Jeffries, Corbett, ,Choynski, Britt and Kaufman. He trained Johnson for his cham pion- ship fight with Jefries at Reno and was also instrumental in arranging 2 the match and backing the celored fighter.
 While he was thoroughly familiar with every aspect of the sport, de- fen ding it staunchly and advancing its interests in every possible way, De- laney was not heavily interested finan- cially and rarely made large bets.

He had various reasons in favor of each ci V, but it is up to him to decide which city he prefers, for he cannot have his cak and eat it. too.
 Manager ONel has several times given his reasons for not caring to be frisked out of $1,500 and the directors are of the same way of thinking. The two Waterbury men who have the S1,5OO claim and who contro' the lease say that the gates at ReidvilIe will not be opened until the fifteen hundred wheels tre paid over. Manager O'Neil says he will not pay them.
