MILWAUKEE, Wis. December A.
The next fistic classic on the boards
the McGoorty and Gibbons match-will
take place in New York city tonight.
While no decision will be given and no
title is at stake, still the interest is as
great as though the championship de-
pended on the result; in fact, it is what
might be termed a near championship
battle. for should there be decisive win
ner the lucky one will be classed as about
the best of the American middleweights
and fit candidate to battle for the
worlds title with Frank Klaus or Billy
Papke, providing the latter can make the
stipulated weight. 1t will not be a one
sided match by any means. nor will 1T be
a welterweight meeting a middleweight.
Mike Gibbons will have very little the
worst of the weight question-in fact, he
will have all the best Of 1t. for he will
have McGoorty at a weight that will tax
his strength to make 15S pounds ringside.
Gibbons will go into the fight we'll above
the 152-pound mark, and If his close
friends are to be believed he will be
around 156 pounds. Some boxers have
the habit of trying to keep their exact
weight from the public. but they fool no
one but themselves by such methods. Nc

HARNESS HORSEMEN
GIVEN SUSPENSIONS
Several of Them Are Set Down
for Two Years on the
Charge of Ringing.

NEW YORK, December 4-With a rec
ord number of cases on the docket for
adjustment, the board of review Of the
National Trotting Horse Association be-
gan its annual session yesterday at the
Murray Hill Hotel. The meeting this
year is being presided over by a full
board. a rare happening in the history
of the association.
The majority of the cases are for viola
lions of the associations rules, failure to
pay assessments and few charges OF
ringing. A number of suspensions and fines
comprised the bulk of the officials work.
The longest suspension handed out was
that to H. NJ. c. Fry of Mount Holly,
N. j., who was mixed up in two ringing
cases. The first was that Of Ardent Joe,
2.13k. alias Gypsy Lad. under which
name it won number of purses on the
New Jersey circuit. The horse, which
was proved to be Ardent Joe, was ex-
PEELED, and II. c. Longstreet, w. II.
Fisher. 1. Fisher and Fry were all sus-
pended for two years and until the illegal
winnings of the horse are paid.
Fry also was found guilty of racing a
bay gelding under the name of Reckon,
which was identified as Dick Allen, 2.O7A.
the horse in question be distributed
among the parties entitled, and Fry was
suspended for two years.
F. o. Strause of Springtown, Pa, and
Charles Oddyker of Bethlehem, Pa, were
suspended until they return the funds
won by Moonshine. 21SA. at Naza-
reth Pa. MOonshine was started in a
slower class. and after the race the horse
was found to have a mark of 2.1SA
j. f. Connolly of Saginaw, Mich, who
appealed his case of suspension October
70. at Rockport. Ohio. was denied. Con-
molly started the horse Storm in the 2.1O
class, and was suspended for not win
ming. His suspension for a year will
continue.
A speedy decision was reached in the
case of E. ]. Shem Of Fulton. n. Y.
who applied for a.release from a fine of
a race. The decision was in favor Of the
defendant and the fine was ordered to be
paid back to Shem. Shem had entered a
horse in a special race and engaged
driver from q nearby town for the occa-
sion. When the race was called the
horse was ready to start, but the driver,
who was coming to the track by auto
mobile, was stalled and failed to put in
an appearance. 1t is not often recorded
in the proceedings of the association that
fines are refunded. but the members Of
the board decided that the owner was not
to blame.
The full board sitting at the meeting is:
secretary, w. H. Gocher, Hartford.
Conn.,: F. O. Beal. Eastern district: ].
Howard Ford. Atlantic district; William
Russell Allen. Central district; John c.
Welty, Western district, and ]. H. Booth,

the weight easily. but, as stated before in
these columns. We must be shown that
he can before being convinced. 1t is
hoped that Eddie can make the weight
and be strong, for 1T will insure a splendid
contest, whereas if he is weak from the
drying-out process it will mean that he
will have to make a defensive fight of it
to save himself.
When it comes to hitting the Osh-
kosh boy has it over the st. Paul mar
vel. and his straight 1efts carry as much
weight behind them as the rights of
many boxers. Let McGoorty get home
his left just once and Mike feels the
sting of it, you can gamble the st.
Paul lad VIII fight careful battle and
use his cleverness instead of trying to
take any chances. but if he finds that
McGoorty is weak from making the
weight then he will take a chance and
try for a decisive verdict. If Eddie
is right then watch for some fur to
fly. 1t is liable to be case Of jab
and clinch with Gibbons if he finds
that he cannot exchange blows with
McGoorty, and when it comes to that
style of fighting Michael can hold his
own with any Of them. not barring the
Sullivan twins. Match Jimmy Clabby
with the winner and there will be a
contest worth going farther than New
York to witness.
Tom McCarey, the Los Angeles pro-
moter. is sure going after the heavy
weight hopes. Tom has matched Al
Palzer. who recently got the worst of
six-round bout in Philadelphia with
Tony Ross, to meet the winner of the
FlynnM cCarty bout December 10.
Palzer, no doubt, was in poor shape for
Ross, but that is his own fault and
he deserves no sympathy whatever; in
fact. he should be condemned for not
being in shape and not giving the pub
lie what it paid to see, his best eff
forts. Uncle Tom will be kept busy
with the heavies for a time if he
wants to get them thoroughly eliminat-
ed. for he will have Jesse Willard and
George Davis to figure on after the two
above-named matches. Then he might
match up the winner of this series with
Bombardier Wells.
Why not have the police officials take
up the question of boxing? Every police
department has drills. etc, for the police
men so as to give them the proper
amount of exercise. OF course. in some
of the cities the policemen box among
themselves and they do not hesitate to
say that it is by far the best exercise
they can get. Boxing IS one of the sports
encouraged by the police authorities in
London, and there is no finer disciplined
force in the world than in the big city
across the pond. To further stimulate
the interest in boxing among the police
Earl Lonsdale of London has given a
number of challenge shields to be boxed
for by members Of the various divisions
of the metropolitan force. The first COM
petitions for these trophies were held in
London a few weeks aSO-the chief COM
missioner of police and his staff attend
ing the show and apparently enjoying it
greatly. This would go to prove that the
boxing game is not in poor repute among
the police authorities, as has been sug-
gested in the past: in fact. the police

KETCHAM TO LEAD YALE.
All-America Foot Ball Center Elect.

NEW HAVEN. December 4-The
twenty-three Yale foot ball players who
this year received their ''Y'' met last
night and unanimously elected Henry H.
Ketcham of Brooklyn captain of next
years eleven.
The election Of a captain has rarely
been more important than this year, be-
cause under Yale's policy a captain is
supreme. and it will be largely for ketch-
am to determine whether or not there
shall be any change in Yale's coaching

vious year act as head coach.

heads have practically given it their
sanction. The police in the British me-
tropols raised a protest when Jack
johnson was matched with Bombardler
Wells because they claimed II was poor
match, and from the subsequent events
they were about right. The Johnny
Bulls love their boxing matches the same
as they love their roast beef and kidney
pies. and it will require some very strong
opposition to interfere with it's progress.
1t is the same in France. where the
boxing game has scored a wonderful sue
cess. The French authorities, like t"e
British. think it is great thing for
building up the soldier boys and al5o
those of the navy. and if it is good for
the soldiers and navy boys it must e
good for the policemen. My, oh, my,
what series of competitions could be
had from among the policemen of the
various big cities in the United States.
There would be little need to search for
white hopes if such competitions could
be established.
If AID Wolgast carries out his plan to
make a tour of the world and to make
his matches in foreign countries on the
basis that he has been doing in the
United States, he is liable to bump into
several snags. 1t has been Wolgast's
idea, and the same holds for practically
all the fighters who think they are stars,
to demand big guarantee, with a privi-
win. lose or draw. 1t is not like the old
days. when two fighters were matched
for a side stake and a winners and los
er's end of the purse offered. 1t is very
different over in England now, and If AID
expects to go over and dictate terms the
way he does here he will be without
matches of any consequence. The big box
ing clubs over there refuse to mae
matches without a winner and losers end.
1t was this fact that was partly to blame
for the Wells-Johnson fiasco two years
ago, and no promoter of standing there
now is likely to crafty the demand of
Mr. Wolgast at the risk of having the
game interfered with. If the Michigan
bear cat really wants to go over and get
some good matches he need have no fear
of being idle. for Freddy Welsh has al
ready offered to match up with Wolgast
for big side stake and the biggest purse
offered. Welsh wants to fight for the
such a match, for he is champion of
Great Britain, having only recently won
the title from Matt Wells Wolgast was
champion of America, but not of the
world. In addition to Welsh wanting a
match there are others on the banks of
among them Matt Wells. Jem Driscoll and
Holberg, the Danish champion. And last.
but not least is Hughie Michigan, the
Australian champion, who has as much
right any one to demand a battle for
the big title. Therefore, if the Michigan
boy wants to make the trip across the
brny he can find plenty of good matches
to keep him busy and help swell his cof-
fers

There is an old Dutch town not a
hundred miles from New York which
Y 70 a few years ago. when a but
ton factory was located there, was
very much in the condition Of New
York when that city was called New
Amsterdam. They have a church
there where the congregation has
been used to listening to the same
kind of preaching ever since the place
was settled, and the same organist
has discoursed the same kind of music
for half a century.
A new minister was called to the
church recently. but his call to the
pastorate was followed by his being
called down, for he shocked the con
gregation by preaching socialism and
woman's rights. He had been chosen
on account of his name, which was
Founder, the congregation thinking
that they would listen to the same
pulpit hammering to which they had
been so long accustomed. When they
fired" him he took up his favorite
causes, devoting himself to them ex-
clusively.
Miss Katrina Van Schoonerhoven, a
member Of this ANTICIPATED congre-
CATION, one day lost her bearing so
far as to permit the use of her domi-
cile for a %suffragette meeting. From
every side came protests that one Of
the old Dutch circle should lend her
house for such a purpose. Miss Van
Schoonerhoven explained, averring
that she was not a suffragette herself
and had lent her house for a purpose
of which she did not even approve. In
the midst of her embarrassment there
came a ring at the telephone.
Are you Miss Van Schoonerhoven?'
was asked in a sonorous voice.

poles in the residential districts. Such
ter have been in general use so long
that many people have assumed that
nothing better is used anywhere or a
even be attained. Nothing is more err
roneous than this idea.
There is now a street lighting sys-
TEN in use in many cities Of the coun-
try which is attracting widespread IA
vorable comment. This modern form
Of street lighting is known under sew
eral names, but possibly the most COM
mon is ornamental street lighting"
In this system ornamental cast iron or
concrete posts. surmounted by tung-
stem lamps with inclosing glass ball
globes. are placed at short intervals
along both sides Of the street. Such
posts when properly selected and
placed and equipped with suitable
lamps and globes will furnish a street
light which is exceedingly efficient both
in illumination results and in appear,
ance. !
The decorative value of the orna5
mental system is one Of it's most i'm
pOrtant features. One who has never
seen Il city street bounded on each side
by a long row of ornamental posts,
each surmounted by several clear
white ball globes. such as those known
as alba" can scarcely realize the
decorative effect produced. The re-
suit is not to be compared with that
produced by the old fashioned gas
lamps, the so called beautiful arch
system Of incandescent lamps. or the
inartistic arc lamp.
The daylight appearance Of any street
lighting system should also be con-
sidered. A we'll designed post when
carefully set and equipped with alba
ball globes is a thing Of beauty by
day as we'll as by night. Its appear
ance is infinitely better than that of a
%blackened wooden pole supporting a
maze of wires and an ugly arc lamp.
The illuminating result produced by
any street lighting system is Of prime
Importance and is certainly a matter
for the consideration Of any one who is
interested in civic Improvement. In
this respect the ornamental system is
unexcelled. BY employing the proper
spacing Of posts and the proper size
Of lamps and observing Il few other
contributing factors the Illuminating

Since man must of necessity spend
a considerable portion of his time n

doors it would seem appropriate that
something be said here concerning
civic improvement in street lighting.
We are sometimes prone to resign
ourselves to u present condition with
no thought as to what we might ac-

merely received the impetus. This
