YALE CREW COACHES TRYING TO FIND NEW
 STROKE FOR EIGHT

Yale crew coaches have begun their task of developing a championship crew Officials in the Yale navy be- lieve in being forehanded and they fully realize the task that must be accomplished if the material now available is to be whipped into the form shown by the Yale crew last June, when the Harvard crew was beaten by four inches over the four mile course.
 June has greatly increased the chances of turning out a winning crew, however for eevry oarsman in the8 university who has any ability has gone ta work enthusiastically. Re turning graduates remark the enthu- siastic attitude toward the work dis played by the candidates. One hun dred and seyenty-five men answered the first call sent out by Captain T. B. sDenegre Hone of the largest squads that has ever reported for crew work. Sixty of these men are candidates for the freshman crew and are working under Coach E. J. Clan mini, while the remainder are working for places in the varsity boat.
 In the varsity crew squad no differ entiation has been made except to di- vide the men into two rough classes which are designated Glass Az and Glass B.' The first boat has been SelScIeU- mere are three class A eights, on one of which Captain Den egre is rowing No. 7.
 MeLane, who was coxswain last spring, is showing all of his oId-time driving ability. Low and Sturtevant | are the only men now reporting for work who raced last spring, besides McLane. Sturtevant is in a second class A boat Jim Sheldon, the fourth veteran to return to the university this fall, is playing on the football team at guard. He will report for crew work at the conclusion of the football season.
 The problem for the coaches this year is to find a. stroke who can take the place of Jack Appleton, whose wonderful work was largely responsi- ble for winning the race last spring. Gillian. Coe and Morse are now be- ing tried out at stroke in the three first boats.

sCTRCUs sOLLYo HOFFMAN, 8 TODAY, ENJOYS COME
 BACK WITH THE FEDS

Artie Hoffman, who was considered the champion utility man of the base ball world in those vanished days when the Chicago Cubs were enjoy ing a regular diet of pennants, is the owner of one of the many familiar frontspieces which have been seen on Federal League diamonds this year. RemorseIess Daddy Time now figures Circus Sol1y's'1s years as thirtyztwo, for the records show that he was born on Oct. 28, 1882.
 Back in his early diamond days in his native city, St. Louis, Arthur tried his hand at pitchin' and ketchin', and as a professional the veteran player has covered every, ether position. It was about fifteen years ago that Hof- man began to make a. local reputation in the Mound City as a member of the Smith Academy and Trolley Lea que clubs. His first league appear ance was in 1901, when he covered the third sack for Evansville Ind, in the Three-I circuit Arthur remain ed with the Hoosier club two seasons, and in 1904 he was signed as short stop by the Des Moines Western league team. He had previously been tried out by the Pittsburgh Pirates, but was not considered good enough for that company. After a year in chance with the majors, this time with the Chicago Cubs, and he got away with it. He stayed with the Cubs until 1912, and during his seven sea- sons in a Chicago uniform he played every, base and also shortstopped and outfieIded. His best year was 1910, when he helped Chicago to another pennant by swatting the leather for a
 325 average. Artie played in the 1906, 1907, 1908 and 1910 worlds championship games.
 In 1912 Hoffman was struck on the head with a ball, and he did not re- cover his playing ability that sea- son The Cubs sold him to the Pi- rates, but, Artie suffered from several nervous breakdowns. Later he sued the Cubs for $3,O00 back pay, charg- ing that he had a contract calling for $5,OOO for his services in 1912. Pitts burgh, he alleged, refused to pay $3,- 900 due for the balance of the season. The case was tried in Chicago few months ago, and Holman got yer dict for $2,944.47 from the Chicago club.
 Last year Artie played with Nash vile, in the Southern association, cow
 ering first base and outer garden DO

PENN. STATE
 CAPTAIN GETS
 BADLY BURNED

State College Pa, Oct 28.-CApta1n E. V. Tobin of Penn State College football eleven and G. J. SaurhoR of Hadden Heights, M J., president Of the sophomore class, were severely burned Monday night by the exp5o- sion of five barrels oG gasoline that were poured over a gigantic pile of frewood> to celebrate the return Of the team from Cambridge. where it played the Harvard eleven to g. tie last Saturday. Both men, rende e&ed unconscious, were rushed to the Bel 1efonte hospital. It Is feared they will lose their eyesigalt. Both are in a critical condition.
 So great was the force of the ex- plosion that residences in a1I parts of the village were rocked, windows of college buildings and 6raternity houses were shattered
 Tobin and saIrhor were standing side by side, 26 feet from the pile. Under SaurhoTs direction robin threw g. torch into the woodpfle. rn- stantly there followed the ignition of the fumes from the five barrels of gasoline, which had been poured lib orally over the mass of timber, and the explosion followed

OUTFIEI4DFR
 MAY JUMP TO GIANTS

The Brooklyn Feds are concerned in another rumor that broke out yester- day. It is to the effect that Phil Chouinard, ones Of the teams best young out1elders, is contemplating . return to the organized baseball fold
 According to a friend Of the out fielder, Chouinard was 8 free agent when he signed with the Brootzeeds, and his contract only covered last season. He declares that he has of fers from the New York club of the National league, and from the Cleve- land Americans, and is seriously con- sider1ng them.
 John B. Foster, secretary of the Gi- ants, stated that he knew. of no offer that the Giants had made to Chouin- ard. He said that A1cGraw had al- ways expressed himself against talk ing back any man who had gone to the Federals and he hardly believed that the Giant leader would make an exception in favor of Choufnard4
 If the Fed outergardener Is anxious to return to the organized fold, 1t will be necessary for him to seek rein statement before he can negotiate with any of the clubs therein. Of course if either the Giants or CIeYe-, land want him badly enough, there is no doubt but that his case will be adjusted speedily. The question of the moment is, therefore, how badly do they want h4r1

 OF RING BATTLES

1889-Tomny Dixon. featherWefght boxer born in Helyole, Mass Tommy, who is bona fde Irislher, started fighting about five years ago, and went along without a. defeat until 1911, when he was outpointed by Joe Mandot, the New Orleans French baker boy. He also lost on a foul in the 16th round of a bout with Joe Rivers at Vernon. After that Tommy began to slip and was defeated by Boyo Driscon at Mem phis, by Jack White at Cleveland, by Tally Johns at Butte, by Charlie White at Windsor, Ont, by Tommy Sullivan at St. Louis, and aby Johnny KiIbane at Cleveland. This long string of defeats with only occasional vic tories, put Tommy out of the running so far as his championship ambitions were concerned.

sit1ons. He did so well that it was believed that his old manager. Frank Chance. would give him a job with the Yankees. Artie, however, decided to try his luck with the Federal league, having secured his uncondi- tiona1 release from the Nashville club. At first base for the Brooklyn Tip Tops Artie showed frequent flashes of the form which made him the star utility man of the game when he was with the Cubs.
 Hoffman is one of the major-league cast-offs and near -discards of the ma jor leagues who have made good with the Feds this year. Hal Chase, Rus sell Ford. Davy Jones, Mordecai Brown, Otis Crandall, ZwiIling, Bates, Easterly, Dolan, Laporte, Danny Mur- phy and many others, renewed their youth with the young circuit. Most of Hofman's mates with Brooklyn were old major Ieaguers. Manager Bill Bradley was formerly with Cleveland, and was the star third sacker of. the American league. Tom Seaton twirled for the Phi11ies in 1913. Danny Mur- phy was an Athletic discard, and once one of the hardest sluggers in the game. Steve Evans, formerly of the Cardinals, was one of the star swat ters of the Federal league.

 Cornisley thinks the world of Walsh He Believes the veteran pitcher could inspire the team with the proper fight ing spirit, which is something the club lacked woefully ever since Callahan took charge.
 The fact that the Sox won tie city series from the Cubs again this fall IS an argument in favor of Callahan, but the fans are not satisfied with him and have not hesitated sin saving so time and time again during the past season.
 That Walsh is fitted for the job is certain, although there has been no Indication in the past that the big pitcher had managerial ability.
