CRAY HAIR BECOMES
DARK, Thick, GLOSSY
Try GrandmOther's Old FaVOrite
Recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur. properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray; also ends dandruff, itching
scalp and stops falling hair. Years
ago the only way to get this mixture
was to make it at home, which is mus
sy and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound" You will get a large
bottle for about so cents. Everybody
uses this old, famous recipe, because
no one can possibly tell that you dark
ened your hair, as it does it so natur-
ally and evenly. You dampen a sponge
or soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at time; by morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another ap-
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark, thick and glossy and
you look years younger.

MAGNATES GATHER
 TO FIGHT FEDS

New York, Dec. 8-Organized base ball is represented here today by Ma tional, American and International league magnates and the opinion pre- vails that these representatives are waiting for orders from the national commission. to begin war on- the Federal league that will determine for all time whether there shall be three major baseball league or but two as was the case before the newcomers came on the scene.
 Rumors that President Hampstead had been given assurances of support in a. legal fight to restrain Marquard from joining the Brooklyn Federals were heard today previous to the meeting of the national copnission which all forecasters are unanimous in saying will issue orders, including instructions tto blacklist players who desert organized baseball for the Fed erals.
 The meeting of the national com mission was to open the days round of baseball sessions and from the gov erning body the program for whatever National leaguef action against the Federa1s is taken was expected to come. A meeting of the National league board of directors was set for this afternoon previous to the annual league meeting.
 The presence of President Johnson and majority of the club own also gave rise to reports that a special meeting of that body would be held here this week to back up the parent organization and the national conlTnis- sion in the fight to restrict the base ball field of the country to two major leagues.

LATERAL PASS WILL NOT
 BE ABANDONED BY YALE
Open Game Will Be Used More Than
 Ever Next Season

ond saw the Argos team confronting the University of Toronto for the cup deciding game. It seems further. that Silent Frank in the course Of his fact. made quite study of the game, even took notes upon it.
 Naturally, there is butso one conc1u- sion to be arrived at That is. Yale is not to eliminate the lateral pass from it's 1915 repertoire, but instead will present a considerably more re- narkable and intricate schedule at New Haven this fall.
 Concerning his visit to Canada, one sporting writer says:
 iHfnkey has some Canadian grld- ders at New Haven this year, and picked up more than few stunts from them. He evidently / believes, however, that he can get a better grasp of the wide open rugby game by seeing it played in championship matches. He is thinking along right lines, too, and since he has captain to his liking and has been given a free hand at New Haven for next year, something sensationally new in Amer fcan gridiron art cans reasonably be expected from him.
 After the game at Toronto, last Saturday. H1nkey was asked what he thought of the way footballs were handled in the Dominion.
 < T enjoyed the game very much ana T like the chances that the men tate,s replied the Yale mentor. The play is wonderfully open and fast. Our intefference play might add something to your game. but would not sacrifice your passport play for that One thing I greatly admire is your return putting and especially the run back and kick whiEe the ball is still in motion It was g. bad day | 7f1,1a I game as the field was bad. I will try to come here for theN final next Sat urday and I am hoping for good day.'''

JOHNSON TO GET $3.33 FOR EVERY
 BALL HE TWIRLS


 Johnson will receive, according to re- ports, a salary of $2O.000 annually from the Chicago Feds for a term of three years. From this some interesting figures can be adduced regarding the earning power of his right arm At the most Johnson will not pitch more than fifty games a season for the Weeghman team. The amount he re- cefves for each game he pitches may be approximated at $400-it will not be. less than that
 A pitcher in the average game hurls the ball to the catcher in actual play about 120 times. At the rate of $40 a game Johnson win therefore receive S3.33 1-3 every time Nhe winds up and lets the ball fly, toward the plate A fairly respectable wage is this any way that you look at it. The only regret of the pitcher is that he is paid by the season and not according to the number of times he hurls the ball. At 8 B 1-3 a throw a pitcher could not be blamed for developing wiIdness in every game Where the owner has him is in the fact that he gets no more if he goes over the average Of 120 throws for each contest That is, if an own CT has' a s2o,0o0 pitcher in any re- spect.

NOT
 INVERSE TO B0SSiNC TANKS

New York, Dec. S-Eddie Trowbridge Collins, crack second baseman of the Athletics, blew into town with the other magnates, managers, and wor- thies, yesterday. and Eddie's appear ance on the scene led to the report nounced as manager of the Yankees during the coming week.
 Are you going to manage the Yankees?'' Collins was asked Well, honestly, nobody has ever offered me the job,'' replied Collins. .s.The only thing I know about my chance to land the job is what I read in the pa pers. ''
 Collins admitted, however, that he would not be adverse to taking crack at the managerial ojb, and it may be that he will have his ambition gratfhed. There are a great many who think Collins will be Chances successor. Both Johnson and Comis- key stopped off at Philadelphia before they came to New York yesterday morning. There certainly seems to be something brewing in which the Ath- letics are deeply cQncerned
 While Big Ban was shouting at the Belmont hotel, his new headquarters, that he was glad Walter Johnson had jumped, and that Walter would not be missed, Clark Griffith was at the Waldorf. saying Johnson would play with his team, eor not at all.
 We can prevent Johnson from play ing in Chicago and will do it,,'~ says 'toaTiff- sThey can't get away with that. We paid Johnson S2, 800 last year for an option on his services for 1915 for. the same salary as he re- ceived last season, and that contract did not contain the ten-day clause either

In 1898 Barry gave the Italian another chance at the title. and they fought a twenty-round draw in New York. In November Of the same year Barry and Leon mix ed 1t again, this time in Chicago. and honors were even. The next month they fought their third battle of the year in Davenport, la, but there1was nothing to choose between them at the end of twenty rounds.
 In 1899 Barry retired from the ring undefeated, and Leon found his prin- cfpal rival for bantam weight honors in Terry McGovern, the Brooklyn newsboy. He fought the Terror in Brooklyn in 1899, and was knocked out in the twelfth chapter. That de- feat apparently broke the spirit of the Sicilian, for after that he was whip ped by several second-raters. and af4 ter losing toIClarance Forbes and Steve Flanagan in St. Louis, to Jimmy Smith in Toronto, and to Harry Har- ris in Chicago, he quit the ring.

BIRTHDAY OF CASPER LEON, GREATEST
 ITALIAN PUGILTST

If Johnny Dundee keeps up the gait be has set in the last couple of years he may achieve the Iightweig g1t chafhpionship, in which case he would of sunny Italy in the history of the noble art.'' Up to date, however, that honor belongs to Casper Leon, the little Sicilfan bantamweight who was one of the stars of the ring fifteen CT twenty years ago. Like Dundee, who fought a draw with Johnny Kill bane at Los Angeles last year, Leon was able to hold his own against the champion of his division, but he lack ed the punch which would have made him the first Italian champion of the world.
 Casper Leon was born in Palermo Sicily, forty-two years ago to-day, Dec. 8, 1872. He began fighting in 1891, and by 1894, when George Dixon re- signed the bantam title to enter the featherweight lists, the championship of the bantamWeight division rested between the little Sicihan and Jimmy Barry, of Chicago. Leon and Bar rya were match ed to fight for the title, and the mill was staged at Lamont H., in 1894. For twenty rounds 1t was nip and tuck, but Barry had more stamina than his rival, and in the twenty-eighth chapter he landed a punch that put Leon down for the full count.
 Casper had many friends who con tfnued to believe that he was the better man, and they clanored for a return match. Barry was willing to oblige, and early in 1895. the two ban tam fighting cocks mingled in a Chi cago ring. This time they went four teen rounds to a draw, and the Ita1- ian was entitled to the shade.
 Leon then went to New York, and or three years he battled almost on stantly in eastern cities, taking on

OF HARVARD HAS
 APPENDICITIS

Boston, Dec s-Thomas Enright of Fall River captain and star fullback of the Harvard freshman football team this fa.ll,' was operated upon for appendicitis Sunday afternoon by Dr. E, H. Nichols, who has been the phy- sfcian in charge of the Harvard var sity football players for many years tion on Captain Charlie BrickIey.
 Enright's trouble came on after he had retired Saturday night in his room at Smith hall, the new fresh man dormitory at Cambridge. He was unable to sleep and early Sunday morning got into communication with Dr. Nichols, who ordered his removal to the hospital.
 Dr.s Nichols said that the operation was entirely successful. It is expected that the patient will be able to leave the hospital in a. few weeks.
 Unlike Briok1ey, Enright was for tunate in that he was able to finish the football season before the illness came on. He was by farathe strongest player on the freshman team and is believed to have excellent possibi1i- ties for varsity football
 In the Harvard-Yale freshman game Enrigtat received g. blow on the head which was at first thought to be serious He was taken to Cam DT1dS0, e6Ao41Il1IebIlO11 4dtlSE pTON0o that fears were unfounded. Before he left the game the Harvard team, largely because of his playing, was almost holding it's own. The Harvard youngsters then went to pieces and lost by a large score.
 Enright entered Harvard from lEx- eter, where he was one of the stars of the championship 1913 football team. He played shortstop on the baseball nine and was considered an unusually promising schoelboy player.

It looks as if the Cleveland AneT1- can league club did not intend to re- tain the Waterbury franchise next season. The owners have made no attempt to renew the lease on the Waterbury grounds. They may be waiting for Mike Finn to complete @ deal for the franchise.
 Speaking of the Waterbury fran chfse recalls an interview Lee Forl, last years manager, gave in the west He says the biggest handicap the Eastern association has is the one day stand in each city. Fotl claims the players spend too much time on trains. Many players from other leagues have found fault with this but in q compact circuit it would be foolish for 2 team like Bridgeport to play two or three days in succession in g, city so near as New Haven.
 New Haven football fans like to kid themselves about their home players. The Journal-Courier has 8 long tale relating how much hard luck the Washington G1ee club players have experienced in the four games they have, played with the Remington osts. In telling about last Sunday 8 game the writer states that the Glees were just about to send a man over for a touchdown. when the whistle blew, ending the game. Just how they expected to send a man over is not stated. As matter of fact when the final whistle blew the Yosts had the ball as a result of receiving a kick.
 Owner C1arkin of the Hartford ball team has gone to New York to attend the National league meeting. He hopes to get some players for the Sem ators. Dan O,NeiI has gone with Hartford This has started the rumor that O'Nei1 expects to buy the Hart ford franchise.
