Richie is Made Favorite for
His Battle With Tommy Murphy;
Many Things to His Advantage

match we'll made IL q match half won,
and aside from the natural advant-
ages enumerated it.,must be said that
Richie has shown shrewdness in man,
ing terms Of the coming bout.
He has set aside the old "133
pounds ringside" limit action and has
fixed the weight at 1876 pounds one
sense opinion is, Of course. that Ritz
chic cannot conform with the old
standard and hat every ounce he
takes into the ring on Wednesday
night will be fighting weight.
He will scale all Of 13 pounds, il
not more. whereas Murphy, who, to
quote Manaeer Buckley, is only a
little Fellow" and can show 1913 at
my time after a few days training,
viii be battling with a man a size
bigger than himself.
In a way it's q bit hard for Harlem
Tommy Murphy. He has been knock
quite a while. and now. when his
chances comes. he. Is placed under a
weight handicap. ),
While the present odds--10 to z.
they say--are thought to represent
the relative chances Of Richie and
Murphy. there is point on which
the friends of the little Harlem Turk
place great dependence.
1t liz an established fact that Muir
ply always fights better in San Fran
cisco than he does back east. Bear
ing this in mind, Tommy's supporters
are lot greatly discouraged over the
circumstances that Packy Mcfarland
got all over Tommy recently in New
York. or hat Tommy's &C with Phil
Bloom was 80 even. as to cause doubt
az to where the decision belonged.

the central states. fhbdsfsRockns; the
Notre Dame captain, was pronounced
nearly as good. Miller and Hennine
of the Michigan aggies. and Cherry of
ton Of Chicago, the last named for
otn of Chicago. the last named for
his clever work in the Wisconsin
| game.
Butler, Wisconsin's "all-American'
tackle. is generally selected for tackle
on the all western, but there is q wide
difference among the critics as to his
running mate.
Brown of South Dakota was con-
sidered available by some, but Others
wavered between Pontius of Michi-
gan, Shull Of Chicago. Halligan of
Nebraska and Kirk Of Iowa.s0-.
A!lmendinger of Michigan and
Keller Of Wisconsin have earned
prominent positions as guards. Others
mentioned are Gallagher Of Missouri,
Harris of Chicago, Routh Of Purdue,
Getssmann Of Ohio state. and Leon
ardson of Michigan aggies.
Des Jardien. the Chicago center. ID
apparently considered by most ex-
perts h best man playing the posi-
ton. Since the days when Schultz
starred at Ann Arbor. It is said there
has been no center Of Des Jardien's
caliber. Des Jardien's capacity for
hard work in the line, his ability ia
cover ground and tackle opponents
In the open field and his good head
work put him in a class by himself.

YALE-MAROON GAME
IN 1914

New Haven. Dec. 6.-Walter Camp.
Na!e's veteran athletic adviser. is go
ing to Chicago. and the m has
been revived that before his return
the matter Of a Yale-Chicago game
next fall will be discussed. His trip
is primarily for business, but it is
known that he will meet several foot
ball leaders in that city, and it is re-
ported here on high authority that
prospects of the proposed game will
come into the talk. Coach Stagg is
known to favor a game.
Talk of a game for next season has
been revived because of the fact that
fale.s new stadium will be completed
by that time and Yale is admittedly
seeking to add to it's football attrac-
tons. Because of the presence of
Stage as Chicago's coach. the New
Haven university feels warmly dis
posed toward giving Chicago the game
in case one is allowed with a western
eleven.

be given the kicking duties. Ends
selected were halves at school, Harry

greatest in the position that Colby

letics' payroll and is a brother Of Har.
johnson Of the Reds was a valued

Birmingham was an active member
OF the Cornell team at one. time, and
Ruelbach was an aggressive 1ineman
