HARVARD AND DARTMOUTH WOULD
 BE FINE GAME

A game between Harvard and Dartmouth as a post-season offering would be a highly instructive and in teresting football spectacle. Harvard is being acclaimed the undisputed champion of the East and is well de- serving the honor. in fact, the Grim son is perhaps without an equal in any part of the country, Hast or West. Dartmoufh loses east by reason of the defeat atsPrinceton, the Tigers having been subsequently, vanQuished by the Cambridge eleven.
 But the things Dartmouth has been doing since that defeat, the only one it has suffered this season, directs the Iinoe7ight toward Hanover in no uz1- certain way. The Green eleven has played four games in the interim, facing Amh erst, Tuftss Penn and Syr- acuse, and has rolled up a, total of 181 points to none for their opponents This is truly a, remarkable feat. It proves that Dartmouth has a remark able scoring machine and it leaves a, strong doubt in the minds of many persons whether the setback suffered at theh ands of the Tigers should count so heavily against it.
 On recent perforInances Dartmouth would be the most formidable team that could be lined up against liar yard at the present time. The Crim- son might win, but it would know it had been in a battle. Dartmouth is great this year-greater than the strong Hanover eleven has ever beent

Charley Briclley Birthday
STAR
 INJURED IN
 FINAL DRILL

Philadelphia, Pa, Nov. 25-The Penn sy1vania football squad went to the Whitemarsh Valley Country club yes terday afternoon and will stay there until an hour before game time on Thursday, when it meets Cornell at Franklin Field.
 Roger Townsend, who had been an- nounced by Coach George Brooke as one of Pennsylvania's tackles for the Cornell game, appeared yesterday on crutches, having twisted his knee in Ia scrinmage with the scrubs yester- day. It is probable that he will be unable to start the game. Olen Urq- hart, the end, who was also on the in jured Mst, was in the signal drill, but the coaches fear that he will not be in shape for the contest.
 J. Price, who has played center on the scrubs for three years, was ele- vated to the varsity squad after yes- terday's practice He will probably be given an opportunity to win his letter in the game tomorrow-

BILL DEVERY
 WILLING TO
 SELL YANkE EES

New York, Nov. 25.-WIlIiam s. Devery, the former New York. police chief. who is a stockho1der in the New York American baseball club. stated yesterday that he had heard nothing from President Ban Johnson about the sale of: his shares in the club. Devery stated that the newspa- pers have been selling his property. but he knew nothing about it.
 When asked if he would be willing to sell his holdings, Devery stated that he would if he got his price. He admitted that he would sell anything he possessed if he got enough for it.. Deyery intimated that the talk about selling out his stock probably started because some one realized that there was money in the Yankees and that in baseball as in any other business, competition will crop up at all times. ! Devery stated that there was no room for the Federal league and he believed that there should be an amal- gaInation Of some kind between the two factions in baseball. He believed. however, that the. Feds should be placed just where the older leagues wanted to place them.

RIBBONS IN GREAT GAME
 BEAT KNICKS
CBy wagnero

v
 A large wide person who answers was rushed to the front by Manager Leavy of the Blue Ribbons last night just as the Knickerbockers appeared around the Ribbons. The Knicker- bockers led by 19 to 10 at the close of the first half, before Roach ap- peared on the scene. But in the sec- ond stanza with the aid of the Yonk- CTS star, the Ribbons not only came from behind but romped away with a 31 to 26 victory.
 Roach had very simple method of breaking up the whirlwind passing of the Knickerbockers. He simply ran at the man who had the ball and took the leather away from him. In addition to his skill in guarding Roach displayed shooting ability by making two goals.
 Bobby Stow and Beckman were speedy on the forward line for the locals and Leonard did well in the second period at center. His work in the first period was very poor. how ever. Twice when directly under his own basket he threw the ball to Knickerbocker man who imm ediately tossed a goal.
 Swenson was going great at guard. The light haired boy was bear at blocking and he also caged four goals, Langhammer worked hard in the first half at guard but had one of the best of the knickerbockers against him.
 In the first half the superb passing game of the visitors was seen in all it's excellence They made the locals look as. if they were tied in one spot. With Roach in the game the Ribbons were a different proposition. It was an- nounced that the Troy team will be here next Tuesday. The lineup:

JACK JOHNSON WANTS
 TO EATEN BANKROLL

The reason for Jack Johnson's sudden furry of matchmaking is said to be that he lacks funds. If this is so Johnson must have broken the spendthrift record. Although not an active champion Johnson's earnings are computed at close to $3OO,000 during the six years he has held the title
 This sum represents the takings from eleven fights and also includes theatrical engagements. Although Johnson has been fighting for thir- teen years it was not until he. won the title from Tommy Burns that he was able to lay aside 9 surplus. Pre- vious to that he had led a hand-to- mouth existence, always in debt to his various managers, who succeeded each other in rapid succession
 But with the title in his possession .Johnson's fortunes underwent a great change The $5,Oe0 he received for beating Burns, although a small frac- ton Of the purse, was the largest sum he had ever earned up to that time. For a time Johnson was mod est in his demands. He was satisfied with $5s0OO for bouts with Victor Mo LaghIen, Jack O'Brien, Tony Ross and Al Kaufman. Then came the match with Stanley Ketchel. By that time Johnson had gained considerable as- surance and he received $12,O0 for his end.
 1t was the Jeffries match that made JoAnson's fortune. In all he was paid $12o,000, which included his share Of the purse, the moving pie lures and advertising privileges.
 After that Johnson's idea of his worth took a. bound. He announced s 1000 every time he entered the ring, no matter who his opponent might bess This was the sum he was supposed to have received for meet ing Jim Flynn. but it is fairly well known that he. actually received not more than $10, 900, as the fight prov ed to be a frost.
 For taking part in an exhibition bout with Jim Johnson in Paris John son received $5,0OO. This was his share of the receipts, which did not come up to expectations owing to the fact that Langford and Jeanette were to appear in a real fight the following evening" JoFlnson's share of the re- ceipts of the bout with Frank Moran may amount to something like $35,- 900. So far, however, he has not been able to collect, as the money is tied up by the French courts. If Johnson,s matches with Jess Willard and Sam McVey go through he will be well paid for his trouble, although he is likely to receive less than the sums advertised in connec- ton with the proposed matches. Nov ing pictures are to be taken of both bouts. but unless Johnson loses the l films will be of no value. However, it is estimated that the pictures of Johnson going down to defeat before a white man will be worth several hun dred thousand dollars. Some day ohnson is going to have share in that.
 The plant of the Consolidated Cork Go. of Newark, N-- J., was destroyed by fire at a loss of $1O0.

.EXENDINE
 NEXT COACH
 AT CARLISLE

Washington, Penn, Nov. 25-wash- ington and Jefferson football men, who played against Georgetown, at Washington, D. C., last Saturday, brought back the report that A. A. Exendine, Georgetown coach. had been signed to coach the Carlisle eleven, succeeding Glenn Warner, who will go to Pittsburgh University.
 Exendine is a. former Carlisle star and served his first year as coach at Georgetown this season. His work there was so meritorfous and attract ed so much attention that he was the first man sought when Warner an nounced that. he would leave the In dion School.
 Exendine partially confirmed the report that he would leave George down. Authorities at Georgetown were the first to tell of Exendine's intention to go to Carlisle They tried to retain him as coach for another season, offering him a big increase in salary, but, according to their re- ports, he preferred to take, up the work at the Carlisle School.

McF'arland fat and heavy and out of condition, was in no physical shape to put up a class to compete with Reich.
 Mcfarland was served up as a pun ching bag in place of Colin Bell of Australia. After Reich had knocked down Mcfarland once fin the first round and again in, the third round, the bout was stopped in the sixth ses- sion because Mcfarland was practi- ca1ly helpless

.LANlNN DENIES HE'LL SELL RED
 SOX FRANCHISE

New York, Nov. 25.-Havfng failed in their efforts to sell Frank Farrell s Yankees from under him, baseball ru- nor mongers have circulated a story to the effect that James J. Lannin, one of the financial bu1warks of the American league, was seriously con- sidering disposing of his interests in the Boston Red Sox.
 Lannin spiked the story yesterday by declaring he was perfectly satis- fled with his investment in the Bos- ton American league club, and looked forward to good year in baseball next season.
 The affairs of the Boston Sox are in such perfect shape that Lannin finds time to devote his entire attention to his hotel at Garden City.

SIX DAY RIDERS
 OBJECT TO FINES

Newark, N. J., Nov. 25.-The cyclists who competed in the six-day race at Madison Square Garden were paid off at the office of the Cycle Racing as- sociation on Market street yesterday. Approximately $31,000 was divided by the riders in prize and bonus money and the extra rewards offered by the management for the winners of the prizes during the week. Alfred Gou- let and Alfred Brenda, the Austra- Hans, who won the race, received about 5000.
 The management reported that the receipts were not as large as last year, but it was said that the pro- moters were satisfied in view of the fact that they have eliminated a. nun Der of objectionable features with which the event was always connect ed. The race this year was also held into competition with the sbig football games on the question of patronage.
 That there will be races in Chicago and San Francisco during February, 1915, is assured. MacFarland left here last night for Buffalo to confer with the franchise holders in that city about the proposed race From there MacFarland will go on to Chicago and Kansas City.
 The riders were incensed yesterday when they learned that a number of fines were imposed during the Garden race NHacF'arland insists that the rid CTS must pay these fines before they will be allowed to compete again. What the riders object to is that the fines will go to Richard c. Kelsey. chairman of the registration commit tee of the N c. A. They declare that the fines ought to go toward a fund for injured cyclists. They threaten to take the matter up with those who are leaders in the cycling game.

 The Springfield Union stated today that the Eastern association was not likely to continua business next sea- son unless the Federals and organized baseball declare peace. The Eastern -rnagnates had hard s1edding last sea- son and do not relish another year of warfare. President O'Rourke decIar- ed today that there was no truth in the report that the Eastern might ssusp end operations for a season. He said the magnates had too much money invested in baseball plants to remain idle for a season. with a lower salary limit I believe the Das- tern. association will do we'll in IS 15, = he declared.
 The Yale football officials are dis- gusted with the tactics of the Wash ington GIee club and Annex teams in importing outside talent for the Thanksgiving game In @ sharp let ter to the managers, Everard Thomp- son of the Yale ticket department tells them that although he will keep his promise to let them use Yale field this year they can never secure the field again unless they bar outside players. He. says hiring outsiders is making a, farce Of the contest.
 Among the 30 men elected to Phi Beta Kappa society at Harvard was Jeff Coolidge, the end who ran g ; yards for a touchdown last Satur day. Election to this society is based solely upon 8 students standing as 9 scholar.
 By mistake it was announced that Wal1um would play with the Blue Rib bon basketball team next Tuesday. He not be with the Ribbons.

 There is a strong sentiment in favor of Eddie Dillon for head coach at Princeton next season. Dillon was qtarterback for the Tigers in 1905, 1906 and 1907 and is said to have all the Qualifications for a good coach.
 Capt. O'Hearn Of Cornell is regard ed by the New York Sun as one of the best ends of the 1914 season. There was some doubt about o'Hearn's ability to play against Penn tomorrow but Coach Al Sharpe says O'Hearn will be in good condition.
 Charley BriczIey turned down the offer to referee the Annex-G1ee club football game in New Haven tomor- row. It probably looked too much like protest onalism for the Harvard captain, particularly as the New Ha- ven papers stated Brick1ey had been ogered a large sum for his services.
 In the last six years Yale has made more points by safeties against liar ward than by touchdowns. Corbett made one for Harvard in 1909 and O'Brien made another for the Crimson last year. Many thought Mahan should have been credited with a safety last Saturday but the officials said not and they ought to know.

 Tommy Leach is the latest candf- date for manager of the New York Americans. Leach is a member of the Chicago Cubs at present but it is said that Manager Bresna.han is willing to trade him to the Yankees for pitch CT.
