Sam Clark beat Harry McCrea In
the main four-round bout at the Cen

Batting Is the soul of baseball.

CARLISLE TO DROP

Find Trip to Hanover Would
Be Too Costly for
Indians.
WILLING TO PLAY IN BOSTON

Coach Glenn Warner, athletic di-
rector of the Carlisle Indian School,
returned yesterday from a shooting
trip in the South. When asked what
progress had been made toward ar
ranging the Indian football schedule
for next season, he said that in all
probability the schedule would be
much like that of the season just
passed, with the exception that an
other game would very likely be sub
stituted for the Dartmouth contest.
He said that Carlisle had received an
Invitation to play the Green Noun
tain boys in Hanover, but that owing
to the long "trip and probable small
financial returns Carlisle felt COM
PEELED to decline the invitation. The
Indians would have welcomed Dart
mouth game in either New York or
Boston, but owing to faculty restric-
lions upon the number of out-of-tow
games Dartmouth could only offer

NEMESIS

'BattIer' Hands Dublin Giant
Sound Lacing in Madison
Square Garden.
RODEL OUTPOINTS FLYNN

Battling Levinsky, OF New York
defeated Jim Coffey, the Dublin
Giant; George Rodel, of South Africa,
outpointed Jim Flynn, and Young
Fox, of England, gained the honors
over Joe Mooney, of the west SIDE,
in the three ten-round bouts at Madl-
son Square Garden New York, last
night. All three victories were by
fair margins, but In each instance the
loser was strong oil the way, and
only one knockdown was registered.
LeVlnsky took the drop to the canvas
in the sixth round OF the second bout,
but was on his feet again before Ref
cree job could begin his count.
Coffoy showed himself a powerful
puncher at rare intervals during the
bout, but did not follow up his adj
vantages like an experienced boxer.
Even in the sixth round after he had
dropped Leyinsky to the canvas with
@ rlght to the jaw, closely following
q left swing to the stomach, Coffey
backed away and let Levinslxy make
the next move.
In the early rounds Levinsky
showed extreme caution and backed
around the ring continually, forcing
Coffey to follow him. Coffey did
plenty of feinting while LevinslSy was
backing away and then stood still
while Levinsky would shoot In left
hook and Jar the Irishman. Coffey's
face was badly cut and bruised when
he left the ring, while Leylnsky fin
ished without mark.
Rodel Beats Flynn.
The final bout resulted In rather
easy victory for Rodel. but the Boer
did not show any impressive punch
ing power or boxing ability. Flynn
put up his usual wide-open battle,
walking in with little effort to check
his opponents punches while he
sought an opportunity to put one over
himself. The veteran was badly bat
tered by the Boer and he ran second
in almost every one of the ten rounds.
Fox Makes Good.
Young Fox of England, who aspires
for Digger Stanley's bantamweight
title. made his American debut In the
opening ten-round bout and made q
most impressive showing. FoX's OPP
ponent was Joe Mooney of the west
side and the Briton excelled most of
