Mike Gibbons No
 Match For Denning
New York Boxing Fans Surprised When St. Paul Wonder
 is OutpOinted

Jack Denning outpointed Mike Gib- bons in their ten round battle last night at the Fairmont A C.. New York.
 Laughing Jack as they called him. proved a big surprise. For the first seven rounds he found the Western bons was busy ducking and side stepping He gave marvellous exhi- bition of ring science, but Jack kept on working in a determined fashion and never relinQuished the lead.
 In the seventh Gibbons, urged by his handlers. started to wind up. He jaw-wallops that hurt-and suddenly switched to his right. Denning then made a desperate rally and gave him a good exchange. Toward the end of this round Gibbons let fly a left that caught Denning on the chin and stag gered him. This pleased the crowd, but also disgusted them with Gibbons lack of execution in the early ses-
 It looked as though Mike was doing his best to get over haymaker but kept leading and rushing so steadily that Gibbons couldn't deliver the goods.
 The last round was ferocious. with both men fighting furiouSly. Denning knew he had victory in hand but still took long chances. Repeatedly Gib- bons' right swished through the. air only to land on Denning's neck Glib bons struck a few lefts into Den ning's body and made Jack grunt, but that was all.
 From a scientific standpoint it was a great sight, but the crowd wanted fighting and yelled for it in the fifth round The din woke Gibbons up, but he couldn't do much damage.
 Denning figured well, because his right hand was bruised and he had to depend on, his left Gibbons figured so poorly because he acted on the de- fensive as if he underrated Denning. Gibbons seemed to have the steam be- hind his wallops and hit harder than Denning, but Denning did all the lead ing and hitting and that won him the verdict

ReuIbaCh To Go
 To The Minors Chicago Cubs Secure Waivers On Former Star Pitcher And Also On McIntire

Word was received last night from Chicago that Pitchers Reu bach and McIntire will draw their monthly sti- pend from the coffers of minor league teams next season. President Murphy said that all the clubs in the Natioaa al League have waived on the pair and that the Cubs will get rid of them to the minor league clubs submitting the best propositions.
 Waivers have been asked on Reul- bach before, and 1t always stimu ated the big fellow to better work. Big Ed has been in Chicago for six years, and before he acquired fame with the Cubs had a brilliant athletic career at the University of Notre Dame. When the Cubs were winning pennants sew eraI years ago Reulbach was one Of the great pitching quartet of Brown, ReuIbach, Overall and Pfiester. Reul- bach is still a great pitcher, when he can get the ba over the plate, but his wildness at times makes him worse than useless. McIntire, when with Brooklyn, was considered ore of the premier twirlers of the National Lague. He was traded in the spring of 1910 to Chicago for OutfieIders Happy Smith and Davidson and In- fielder Tony Smith. McIntire was never a real success with the Cubs, and several times last season it was

Harvard May Play
 Minnesota Eleven
Humor That Crimson Will Drop Dartmouth From Foot
 ball Schedule

Cambridge, Jan. A-There is much speculation as to what teams wi l get places on the Harvard football sched- uIe for 1912. From present indica- tions it appears as if nine contests will be listed, the same number as last season. The opening games have been arranged. The University of Maine, after an absence of three years, will again wend it's footsteps stadiumward, coming to town on Sept. 2S, to usher in another Crimson gridiron season.
 One week later Holy Cross expects to try out al her latent possibilities against Taught on's braves. Heinie Hobbs will lug his Amherst charges to town on Oct. r and Williams will come for her annual game on Oct. 19 The following Saturday is generally assigned to Brown. The BrunOnians are reported as desiring cir contest to come on Nov. Q
 According to the agreement entered into by Harvard and Princeton the Tigers were to play here the first Sat urday in November. If Princeton as- sents, however, the Jersey mems game will be played either on Oct 26 or Nov.

Only Five Diamond
 Stars Draw $5,OOO
National League Salaries, Do Not Run As High As In
 American

The season for holdouts has started. The athletes who make a living by playing baseball are asking for addI- lions in their pay envelopes next year, the owners of the clubs are refusing them and the usual I'm through with the game statements are issued, north, south, east and west, wherever the disappointed athlete may reside.
 The larger number of disputes over salary matters in baseball never be- come public. Those that are publish ed come from the players; the owners do not care to tell about them Ev- cry club in the country has it's argu- ments over the salary question just as every business house has and they are always settled.
 vean Gregg. the phenomenal left Cleveland A exander, from the thriv- ing west, whom the Philadelphia Ma tionals secured for $750 and who prov ed the biggest pitching sensation of muscular backstop of the New York Highlanders; they are among the hold outs already announced There will be others, for the season is just start ing.
 National league moguls look upon Gresg's demands as joke This is not his first dispute with the C-eve- land club over salary He had few before this. What he wants for pito h. ing for Cleveland in 1912 Is $5,000- Sew eraI club owners in the National lea que when they IedTQ OI 0C- mands. laughed.
 In the National league there are not five D ayers outside the managers who are getting s5,OOO or more season They are:
 Christy Mathewson of the New York Giants, whose salary is said to be $S, 900 a year and who gets the top figure paid a National league player. He will get the same amount next sea- son.
 Hans Wagner of the Pittsburgh Pi- rates gets probably $1O0 less than Mathewson. He again led the Ma tional league in hitting this year and will prohab y sign for the same figure next season.
 Mordecai Brown. the veteran mem Der of the Cubs pitching staff, is paid about S6,0O0 a year. His work last season will allow him to demand an equal figure in 1912.
 SherwAod Magee of the Phillies, one of the Best hitters in the game, pulls down s5,O00 a season. He will de- nand and undoubtedly receive the same ga 'ary next ye4r.
 Tommy Leach of the Pirates got t5,600 last year, but all he hit in 102 games was .228 and his salary win be cut by Barney Dreyfuss.
 Ong four clubs in the National league are paying as much as s5,00o to any one baIIplayeF. Take the Gin oinnati Reds for instance-the high est salaried man in the team is Lar ry Mclean, the giant backstop. Be- sides being one of the best catchers in that League Mclean is a great slug ger. But all he gets is $4,500.
