EDDIE HART HAS
CHARGE OF TIGERS
Former Captain Thinks Prince
ton Can Beat Harvard and
Yale.

Princeton, N. J.. Oct. 2S-With
Eddie Hart, captain of Princeton
championship eleven of 1911, on the
field with the other graduate coaches
yesterday afternoon, the work of the
Tigers was given a new spirit.
Hart gave every man on the squad
bit of individual attention. The
men on the line received most of his
coaching.
Coach Hart expressed himself as
very optimistic about the teams po-
tentia1 ability.
81 cannot be very sorry over the
outcome of the game with Dart
mouth" he said. "Of course I wanted
to see Princeton hold them to a tie at
least, but a victory by big score
would have done far more harm than
good AS it is, the defeat has made
the Tigers realize their mistakes and
weakness better than weeks of coach
ing, and that is over half the start on
our work for the Yale and Harvard
games.
eleven of the best men have seen at
Princeton, and it will not take more
than a few days to correct the mis-
takes of these men.
princeton is not lost for the sea-
son, but will profit by their defeat TO
learn this Iesson-the Importance of
every man checking one of his oppo-
nents and that of holding the ball. 1t
was on these two points, in my opin-
ion, that Dartmouth won.

FELTON'S BROTHER. ON
HARVARD VARSITY TEAM
Cambridge.

Cambridge, Mass, Oct. 2S-Har-
ward may have the services of another
FELTON, in the games with Princeton
and Yale. Charlie, a brother of the
inustrious Sam, whose boot gave the
Ellis and the Tigers a lot of trouble
in 1912 and other years, was gradu-
ated yesterday from the second squad
to right end on the varsity. Captain
Storer held that place in the Penn
State game on Saturday, but the
coaches believe the leader better fit
ted for his old position at tackle.
Should FELTON, not come up to the
standard it is believed that Gilman or
even Hardwick will be placed at the
right wing. Speedy ends must be
gotten, even at the expense of the
strength of the attack, which seems
well able to take care. of itself
None of the players reported with
injuries from the Penn State game
and all went into the light practice
with a vim. Little difficulty is looked
for in defeating Cornell by a good
margin on Saturday. The race for the
quarter back berth has narrowed down
to Logan and Freddy, with Bradlee
out of it.
Cowen and Mills are hard at it for
the left guard job, but Cowen is the
more likely to fill the place when the
big games come around on account Of
his experienee.e

Jennings Has Great
Praise For Frank Chance

Hughie Jennings. manager of the
Detroit Tigers, is one of the admirers
of Frank Chance who believes the
P. L. and his Yankees will bear
watching next season. He has made
some good deals which have strength
ened his club. He has got rid of most
of the men he found when he took
charge and think he will start much
better and also finish higher next year.
ne knows baseball. All he needs is a
little time"
Manager Birmingham of the Maps
has not given up hopes of winning the
pennant next year just because the
Athletics. look like the greatest ball
club in the world.
81 look for a much harder race next
season. says the Cleveland manager.
Remember that after they beat the
Giants in 1911 the Athletics finished
third. Look at what happened to Bos-
ton this season also. Washington is
sure to be dangerous, and as for our
selves, I think the club that took a
post season series from Pittsburg de-
serves consideration"

MORE CHANGES IN
LINE UP AT YALE
Stillman Goes To Guard And
Ketcham May Return To
Center

New Haven, Conn.,, Oct. 28.-Not only
were the Yale varsity football players
absent from practice yesterday, but it
was learned that they slipped away
quietly Sunday to recover from the
gruelling eferson game
of Saturday.
Only PendIeton and Garter were left
in the hospital. Pendleton will be dis
charged this week, although he will
hardly play before next week. A later
and more careful examination of Car
ters injured knee establishes the fact
that he will be unable to play before
the Princeton match November Is, and
he may be she1ved for the season.
Martin reported slightly lame, but
did not play.
Joseph Stillman, who has been sub
stitute tackle all fall, was moved out
to guard He comes of one of Yales
greatest football families. His brother
George, of the class of 1901, played
tackle for three years, and Walter
Stillman, of the class of 1905, was sub
stitute quarterback for two seasons.
Mike Madden, the former haIfback,
who was kept at guard last week and
played the position last Saturday, bios
somed out IN a new role. He essayed
tackle and showed promise. He is
clearly too light for guard.
Caldwell, who has been substitute
centre, went to guard for the first time,
exciting the rumor that after all Cap
tain Ketcham may be sent back to
centre.

SOCCER FOOTBALL.

On Saturday the Bridgeport City Boys
play this seasons first game in their
fight for the American Cup with the
Presbyterian aggregation at Newfield
Park at 8 p. m. sharp. Last year when
these two teams met the City Boys won
out with a, good margin. OF course
both teams are confident of winning
Saturday and no doubt it will be a
hard fight the whole of the 80 minutes
or until the final whistle blows The
City's line up will be: Goal, J. Throp;
backs, R. James, H. Barrows; half
backs, G.. Galley, w. Cotton, ]. Siam
ford; forwards, F. Barrows, ]. Nc

City Boys losing, they are sure to try
and even things up when they meet at
the oval Sunday at p. m.

KNOCKING MANAGERS OF
WORLD TOUR ALREADY

Before the Giants and White Sox
have had a chance to get out of ear
shot of the hotbed of the winter
league both AIcGraw and Callahan
have been accused by inference of
trying to inJure the work of stars of
other clubs by the world tour. A ST.
Louis scribe, probably fearing that
the Cardinals may not win the pennant
next year because Lee Magee and Ivy
Wingo are with the tourists, has this
to say about McGraw and Callahan:
''McGraw and Callahan are wise.
They know that playing winter base
ball never did any athlete any good
when the next season came around
That's why they are not hauling along
too many of their own stars but TAX
ing chances with men who are en-
ployed by one of the other teams in
the league.
And they are getting away with it,
too-N Not one of the fourteen leaders of
other clubs in the National and
American forbid any of their athletes
to make the tour. If the player
wished ito put up the $500 forfeit
and take chance on making money
on the trip he could do so.''
AS a matter of fact if the world
tour has any bad effect on the Athletes
it is the Giants and White Sox that
will be the greatest sufferers. The
other clubs ought to appreciate the
handicap

ROLLER POLO
IN NEW YORK
Empire State Organizing in
Opposition to Connecticut
League.

That there will be a. roller polo war
again this winter now seems evident.
The New York State league is to re-
organize, according to advices from
Albany, and will furnish opposition
for the Connecticunt league.
The Albany Argus says:
Providence, Fall River and New
Bedford are very anxious to get into
the New York State league in prefer
ence to the Connecticut league, which
has already been organized, but will
probably disband just as soon as the
local circuit is completed. At the
next meeting the above named cities
will be represented and steps will be
taken for the opening season irnme-
diatefy. 1t is hoped to play the first
games in the new league On Novem-
her 10, although the date has not been
definitely decided upon.
Just what plan will be carried out
IN dividing the players is not known,
BUT each team will undoubtedly pick
two men and the rest of the stars will
be pooled. Manager George WEIGH Of
the Albany team will select Lee Tay-
Tor, star first rush, of the Albany
team, and Paul Gardner, halfback and
captain of the local aggregation, as
his two men. Kid Sutherland and
F'erdie Harkins will be picked by
Newburgh and Bill Duggan and Duke
de Fresno will be retained by Pough=
keepsie- Schenectady wants Fred
Team and Bobby Hart back in the fold
There are several stars that are not
RETAINED by the above teams and the
other three cities in the league may
pick any of these. 1t is not likely that
Bert Mallory will be selected by any
4of the teams and if he is not he may

WELSH Is
BACK IN NEW YORK
British Lightweight Champion
Plans To Open Health
Resort

Freddie Welsh, the lightweight
champion of England, arrived in New
York yesterday from Buffalo. With
Welsh was Ed Hagen, the heavy
weight champion of the Pacific coast,
and Eddie Moy, the Pennsylvania
featherweight.
Moy has been with the Welshman
on his six months tour of Canada
and the Northwest, and has won seven
battles. His last match before leav-
ing New York last May was with Ollie
Kirk, the boy who made Abe Attell
quit the boxing game. Moy boxed
Kirk at the Paramount Club and put
him out in five rounds.
Hagen is going to try his hand at
settling the question of supremacy
among the white heavies of the East.
He has won many bouts in the West
and will be ready in two weeks to
meet any heavyweight
Welsh intends to spend practically
the entire winter in New York. He
has an offer of a big country place
about twenty miles from the city, and
is considering a plan to open a health
home. He has many offers for match
es there, and will get into action in a
couple of weeks. Danny Morgan wants
to match Jack Britton against Welsh.

JACK MERCER THROUGH
WITH POLO FOREVER

New Britain, Oct. 2S.-That he is
through with polo and will not play
again is the statement of Jack Mer-
Ger, the famous star. Mercer was as
signed to New Britain when the dis
tributfon of players was made, but was
afterward transferred to Danbury, af-
ter he and Manager Hanna split over
the question of salary. In losing Mer-
Ger the game will be minus one of the
best rushers that ever graced a floor.
He came to New Britain several years
ago, being a member of the champion
ship team which played at aanna's
armory. When the game broke up here
Mercer went to Massachusetts, but
continued to live here in the city. He
is employed at a New Britain garage.
Mercer is of the opinion that there will
be no polo in this section this year,
owing to the low salaries which the
magnates are Offering

GRIFFITH DENIES
TRADE FOR CAREY

washington, Oct. 28-Old Fox Grif-
fifth, chief of the Nationals, arrived in
this city recently after a short trip to
the wild and woody west He had
but little real news to impart, but
came forth with a denial to a story re-
Gently published to the effect that the
services of Max Carey, the Pittsburgh
outf1eIder, were being sought
'tJust where the story originated is
imp possible for me to tell" said Grif-
fifth the other night. CAREY has new
er entered my mind for the simple
reason that it would be impossible for
such a deal to be made. In the first
place, Carey is too valuable a player
to be turned loose by Barney Dreyfus-
In the second place, the National
league clubs would not waive claim TO
him."
While in Milwaukee with President
Ban johnson of the American league,
and Charley Comiskey,' owner of the
White Sox, Griffith attempted to 10
cate George Mcbride, the Nationals
captain. Griffith failed in this re-
spect, but learned that Mcbride was
on hunting trip, and had no idea
of making a trip with the world tour
lists The Nationals boss declared that
he had never given Mcbride nor
stormers, and, furthermore, he would
not give his consent under any con-
sideration. "I am not going to have
my. players risk their arms playing
ball in the off season." said the Ma
tionaIs' manager. Il will need all the
strength can muster next year 9th
er managers may permit their players
to make the tour, but I am strong

JOHNSON PLAYS
AGAINST GIANTS
Washington Wonder in White
SOx Uniform Works Three
Innings

Joplin, Mo-, oct. 2S-In spectac-
ular smuggling match before a crowd OF
5000 fans the New York Giants de-
feated the Chicago White Sox by a
score of g to IL at Miners Park here
yesterday afternoon. It was a. slug
ging contest from beginning to end
The white pill was knocked to I'll
corners of the park, making the game
one full of thrills from the spectators
point of view.
Despite the muddy field the players
did good work and some fine exhibi-
tons of fielding were shown. There
was little attempt at field genera1ship
and apparently the game was not
managed much from the bench, az
the players hit and ran as they
pleased.
Walter Johnson, the Coffeyvi1le,
Kan, boy, worked for three innings
and allowed the Giants two runs He
did not exert himself but the fans
saw the great American League star
in action and they were satisfied.
Mathewson, who was to start against
the star, did not appear.
Thorpe, the greatest living athlete,
warmed the bench for six innings and
then was sent to the coaching line BY
McGraw. When it was announced
that Thorpe was on the line the crowd
rose to it's feet to cheer the big ath-
lete. The teams left here in their
special train at midnight for Tulsa
Okla, where they play today.

11arquard In Bad
With Manager McGraw

New York, Oct. 25.-One short year
often makes a big difference in the
Prospects, reputation and standing of
a baIIpIayer 1t was only twelve
months ago that the Rube Vanguard
had pretty near the center of the base
ball stage and his name took up much
space in big. broad letters on head
lines in the sporting pages of the news
papers.
What he would do or would not do
was heralded broadcast and there was
at that time terrible agitation for, fear
that he might adopt the "stoige'' per-
ananent4E and leave baseball fat Inn
mediateIy after the worlds series of
1912 was finished RUDE and his present
wife started out on vaudeville en-
gagement that took in the country
from east to west. Rube had won two
games in the series between the Giants
and Boston Red Sox for the champion
ship of the universe and he had also
won nineteen straight games, tieing
the pitching recOrd of consecutive
wins Local fans predicted all sorts of
dire disaster for the Giants unless
Rube would deign to play again with
the clah McGraw.
.ssMarquard had no more chance to
anplicaIe his record of 1912 than had.
LE was lack of spring training that put
Rube On the back trail. He imagined
he was as good as he ever was The
recent worlds series settled Marquard
with HcGraW. And I have the idea
hat it was his garrulous writing about
the worlds series games that had as
much to do with McGraw's decision to
trade him as his poor showing in the
box. The trouble with the baseball
writers who dictate their stories is that
they fail to duly appreciate how mere
words, dictated Immediately after a
game. when they are so sore at heart
and in spirit, will look in cold type.
There is no doubt that some of the
criticisms of his fel1ow-pIayers that
apparel under his name cut sorely
and deep and hard-they hurt.

EVIDENCE TO PROVE CLEVELAND
OWNS WATERBURY BASEBALL CLUB
Bill Hanna Declares Bob Hart Will Sign For
Bridgeport Polo

the boss of the Connecticut Polo
league, was in this city last night to
visit his old friend, Tom Carr. Hanna
says he has IA signed contracts of
players and expects to have the whole
bunch in a short time. Playing nights
in this city have been changed to Mon
day and Thursday. Work on the Park
City rink, where the games will be
played, has not been started yet and
nothing will be done until the players
come into the fold. The magnates will
not be held by the players and intend
to do nothing until the stick wieIders
listen to reason Bob Hart, who is to
play first rush on the Bridgeport team,
is one Of those holding out for more
money.
Al Reich, former amateur heavy
weight champion boxer, has been
matched to fight George Rodel, the
Boer, at the Fairmont club, New York,
November 5.
There have been insinuations that
the reason Washington and Jefferson
is so good on the gridiron this year
was because players from other COL
leges had been recruited TO strengthen
the team. Coach Folwel says the only
man who ever played with another col
lege is SpiegeI, who played with La
fayette three years ago.
Manager StaIlings of the Boston
Braves says he released First Base
man Myers to Rochester because he
couldn't hit and let linn go on the
same club because he was slow
thinker.
Sam Langford picked up more easy
money last night when he took on
Jack Lester of, Taft, Cal. The Boston
Tar Baby punched Lester all around
the ring and in the fourth had him so
groggy that Lester was declared
through for the night.
Considerable complaint has been
heard because the New York National
league club is charging 800 for q box
containing four seats for the Army
Navy football game. Twenty-Five a
