SHEVLlN STARTS
 COACHING AT YALE
FORMER STAR COACHES END DRILLS, ENDS AND TEACHES
 NEW FORMATIONS.

True to his word. Tom L. ShevliEl. one of the grea test ends ever turned out at Yale, arrived at Yale field yes- terday to take up the arduous duties of getting the ends into the four re- maining games on the Blue schedule, which includes games with Brown, Princeton and Harvard. Shevlfn was given a great ovation as he made his way onto the famous battlefield. He immediately set to work with the ends, Shevlin found the two regular ends, Hallauer and Bomeisler out of the game. and the latter because of bad shoul- der, so Shevlin started in on GiIe and Avery. Whether he brought any spe- cial plays with him is too early to de- termine.
 The days practice consisted of a long scrimmage. Defensive work made up the principal part of the practice. though the varsity coaches gave the varsity the ball twice and told them to go ahead and make one touchdown, which they did.
 Pumpelly in a straight line plunge from the 5 yard line after he and Captain Spa1ding had rushed it tip the field and Markle made one good run. Pumpelly kicked the goal. For a long time after that the varsity playing was on the defensive, but then they got the ball again and rushed it to- ward the goal line.
 Wheeler had replaced Cornell and he got away with the ball on 8 short ouarterback run and scored. This time Mark1e tried to kick the goal and failed

FOSTER SANFORD OF YALE GETS
 ROAST IN ENGLAND

George Foster Sanford, the former Yale athlete and coach seems to have stirred up a. hornets nest by his out spoken letter to the London Sporting Life in which he told the English that the reason they did not succeed in ath- some parts of England Of men run ming to conceal their real form 50 that eventually they might get a. big han dicap to be sure of winning a race on which thousands of pounds were wa gered.
 ted that he ran below his best form in England for three seasons so that he could get g. big enough mark to win a sprint race known as the Boot hall plate and that he did this to show the English that he could beat them at their own game.
 The English replies to Sanford 8 Yale runner roughly and they point out that it was the financial induce ment which ran up to thousands of dollars that caused him to spend such a long time in England acquiring a mark that enabled him to win this amateur event and clear about $2O,- 900.
 The latest knock is the hardest of all, for writer in the Sporting Chron- icle asserts that even with his long start of 10 IA yards Sanford's sup porters had to pay another man in the race $500 for fear that this other hier would spoil the coup. All of assertions were in the main true, as any man who has campaigned at the amateur meetings in the north of England knows, but like the disclos- 1res of Arthur Duffy, which deprived him at the neroxd he made as an ann

COLLEGE WONDER SIGNED UP BY MACK
RoBERr l.. STEVENSON, UNIvER- STTY OF MINNESOTA PITCHER,
 GRABBED BY ATHLETICS.

Philadelphia, Oct. 3t--Connie Mach has signed for the Athletics Robert L. Stevenson, the former Univer sity oi Addnnesota football and baseball crack Last year Stevenson failed to satisfy the Faculty Athletic Committee of the school it was reported he would enter Brown University after the Christmas holidays and that he would make the team at Providence this year.
 All speculation as to the future of the young pitcher was set at rest to- day when Mack announced he had signed Stevenson, and that he would accompany the Athletics to Texas next February.
 Stevenson came highly recommend ed." said Mack, land if he Is as suc- cessfu1 in the American League as he was in the college ranks he ought to be a useful member of my staff next year."

COMTSKY IS RIGHT BY OFFERING
 JOB TO CHANGE

Comiskey has again done a very po- 1itic thing in making 1t plain to the fans of Chicago that he knows a good
 manager when he sees one, even if Murphy does not. It is said that the old Roman would offer Frank Chance the leadership of the White Sox if the Peerless Leader could secure his re- lease from the Cubs The salary men tioned is $2O 600. If Chance ever went to the American League team in Chi cago all the fans, whom Murphy has said cannot expect to be consulted in the policies of his club, would not be apt to consult Murphy on the spend- ing of their money but would flock over to Coniskey's concrete stadium.
 Of course, it is most unlikely that the National League will allow Chance to escape. He would be worth a great deal of money as drawing card to three or four teams and he would be worth considerably more as a, man ager. As far as the American League is concerned, the White Sox are not the only team that would give Chance salary of $20 GOO

FUMBLlNG AT HARVARD ].
 DIScOURAGES COACHES
BrickIey Reels on Three ToucaaSaovyns
 Against Strong Scrub Team.

Cambridge, Got s1--worlx was on ii, earnest yesterday afternoon in liar vard's football quarters in preparation for the Princeton invasion next Satur-
 day. The squad was driven hard and an hour and a quarter of the hardest sort of scrimmage kept every body moving. The regulars took on the scrubs for a half an hour and emerged victorious by 20 to o. The varsity presented about the same front that they will show to Princeton Saturday. Capt. Wendell was the only absentee from scrimmage.
 Briclkley again showed his speed and stamina, and nothing that the second teams defense had to offer could stop him. He had hand in all three touchd0wns scored, making one him. self. Two runs of fifty yards were also credited to him. Hardick also played fast football and annexed two touch downs. He also kicked the goals from them. I4ingard and Bettle eubbed at futiback in wendefl's place. The sub stjtutes and the second team scrim- maged later for forty-five minutes.
 The black-sweatered boys, strength ened by Coaches Huntin gton, Browne, Leary and the Withingtons, found the varsity understudies too much for them, losing to 0. There was mo- ticeable all around falling off of the entire squad in handling punte. This weakness must be remedied at once if Harvard is to expect success Saturday.

MRS. GEORGE STOVALL WISE TO INSIDE
 BASEBALL DOPE

St. Louis. Oct. ad.-'T haven't miss ed a game of ball at home in seven years" was Mrs. George StovaIl's ans wer recently to the question whether she cared much for the game.
 Every day when the Browns play at home the managers wife is in her box in Sportsman's park and not a play in the game escapes her eyes. It was the same when her husband was with the Cleveland team. The result is there is not a woman in the country who knows more about baseball than Mrs. Stovall. It is doubtful if there is another who knows as much.
 s'Its a great game never get tired watching it. Baseball Is one of the things that have made the American people what they are. It has helped physically to implant a love of clean, healthy sport in the boys of the na- tion,'' she said.
 Certainly, can keep score,'' she declared emphatica1ly when it was in timated that there were any number of fair fans, constant attendants at the game, but who knew little of it; and wouldn't know how to make start at keeping score 'I seldom keep a score" she said, because I general ly 9~mer1aher every play"

JIM JOHNSON AND JOE
 JEANETTE IN JOKE BOUT

If Joe Jeannstte and linn Johnson fought their. level best at the Forty fourth Street Club, New York, last night, then the rival heavyweights need not add the prowess of either to the rest of their many troubles, for the bout was a joke.
 Jim and Joe went through ten rounds of very sloven1y boxing. At no time were the specta tors knocked off Jeannette let the big Philadelphia black do all the fighting. Joe didn't have the steam. or the inclination be- hind his punches The men clfncEed throughout, two-thirds of the contest being whi1ed away in that fashion.
 Young Riley Knocked out Patsy White in the ninth round of their bout. Riley had nearly ten pounds the better of the weights In the ninth White was floored four times. Young Corbett was compelled to desert his referees perch outside the ring and when White was finally sent spinning from 8 Whack on the jaw Corbett waved Riley to his corner, a winner.

GIVES JEANETTE FIVE BIG BOUTS
 IN AUSTRALIA
WILL MEET IANGFORD AND Mo vEY IN TWO CONTESTS
 JOHNSON ELIMINATED.

That Jack Johnson is eliminated from pugilisrn and that the hunt to find his successor has begun was evinced yesterday, when W. c. J. Kelley, who represents Hugh McIn- tosh. the Australian promoter, signed Joe Jeannette to box five contests at Rushcutter's Bay, Sidney. Australia. heavyweight champion of the world. Jeannette's first two opponents in the Australian series will be San Lang ford and Sam McVey.
 Mcintosh agrees to give Jeanette $25.000. with the privilege of 25 per cent. of the gate, with five round sparring partners. and they will sail from San Francisco late in Novem- Der. In addition to these stipulations Mcintosh will hang up 2 gold belt championship.
 Langford and Mcvey met three times in Australia, the California ne bout and Langford winning the two succeeding contests. ,Jeannette met Mcvey five times, boxing two node bout. winning one forty-nine-round contests and drawing in one thirty round meeting.
 Jeannette fought Jack Johnson seven round no-decision affairs. Jeannette won one bout on a foul in the sec- ond round, lost ffteen-round fight and drew in a ten-round go with Johnson.
 Jeannette and Langford have met seven times. Two of the bouts were twelve-round draws and one of the others was a ten-round no-decision affair in New York, Jeannette being the popular winner. Joe defeated Sam once in eight rounds, but lost one twelve-round mill and one fifteen round go to Langford.
 Johnson met Langford only once. beating sam in a. fifteen-round bout in Chelsea, Mass, at a time when Langford was a welterweight. John son and Mcvey have met twice, John- son being returned the winner each time.

hit hard any time. Wood felt worse than anybody else about losing that game and he begged for a chance to go back at the Giants in the final contest.
 'That final game was the most ex- citing I was ever in. Here's a funny thing, too. Most fans get the idea that professional ball players think only of the money but I'm giving this to you straight when say that we forgot all about the coin in that last battle with the Giants. We were so anxious to win that we never thought of the money. In the last inning when we got the Giants on the run, we were throwing our bats in the air and hugging each other like a bunch of kids"
 Ball gives credit to Manager Stah1 of the Sox for his masterly handling of the team during the campaign. He also says Connie Mack, the crafty manager of the Athletics, gave Boston many useful tips on the Giants at a conference during the last series in Philade lphia.
 Tn addition to being considerable ball player, Neal is quite a motorist. Since he began to honk his own auto mobile he wears a pair of goggles in true Barney o1df1eld style. He has just returned from a motor trip to Scranton, Pa. His wife and parents in-law, MT. and Mrs. George Clark, were In the party.

Hobart Annory Hare Baker, is the versity directory, but it's just "Hobe'' in the Tiger training camp today as the old grads" instruct a little blonde fellow, the ughtest man on the Prince

 Baker weighs but 16o pounds and is just 21 years old. but enjoys one of the most varied athletic regulations that a Princetonian has ever borne. At St. the football eleven for three years, explained the hockey team and was a mmeber of the crew. the baseball team year at St. PauPs the personnel of the football eleven included Harry Gard ner, now the field general of the big school friend will play on the same gridiron again on Saturday, but its a
 different story this time
 "Hobs'' made his. debut by defeafing the Yale cubs single handed on q trick formation. It was the first Tiger cubs aGi and Baker Ss was a % Hero already. ths In the winter he swam on 1914 relay team and showed himself the best swimmer in his class. A few weeks later he was captain of his class hockey team.
 In the following spring "T1obe" was found at right field on the freshman nine and could have made the track team bat for conflict in the sched- ules.
 His varsity experience started last year on the gridiron when he practi- cally saved the Yale game by his rTAGG and AAc1frAfa handling f1f the Slippery Yale pur1ts. when the EslYs were banking their hopes on a Prince ton tumble. A critic then accredited him ''the best defensive ha1fback in the country" and some selected him for the A1l-Anerican team. The two- sport rule at Princeton limited Bakers versatility and he elected hockey. He led the Tiger attack and has been as the best amateur hoc- key player in the country. His seven won the intercollegiate championship and then they proceeded to elect "Hobe" captain, the first 1914 man to have this honor
