all other economies into the shade.
The Western League is the inspired
author OF this newest and world
beating idea Of saving much kale for
the poor, penniless magnates. They
have been reading the memoirs of
Russell Sage and the life of John D.
Rockefeller-with an occasional dip
into Poor Richards Almanac. After
much careful study of these immortal
works the magnates met in secret
extraordinary session and finally
evolved the following rule; to-wit,
that the home management shall fur
nish only two new balls to the UNI
pires at the start of each game in
stead Of three as heretofore.
Give Pittsburgh University a clean
bill Of health. The 125-year-old in
stitution deserves the verdict. The
wild rumors that have been circulat-
ed to the effect that there was pro
fessionalism in the ranks of Pitts
crack football team were nailed to
the mast today by K. f. Davis, grad
uate manager Of athletics at the
Smoky City University.
Acting on a suggestion recently
made in this column that where
there was so much smoke-there
ought to be an explanation" Gradu-
ate Manager Davis has irrefutably
shown the smoke to have come from
Pittsburgs factory chimneys, or from
some of the so-called "Big-Four"
class teams who were larrupped BY
the Pittsburghian clan at football last
fall. and wanted to show an alibi.
Manager Davis gives his alibi I'M
the form of a pretty complete history
OF every member of the team At
any rate. the history is complete
enough to dispel any idea that the
Pittsburgs eleven had a taint Of pro-
fessionalism in its system. II there
are still remaining any unbelievers
who want to be convinced, the his
tories Of the Pitt players may be had
from the writer on application.
Manager Davis communication,
BY the way. conveys the rather inter
esting information that, with two ex-
ceptions, Pennsylvania furnished all
except two of the regulars. with
these two exceptions, all learned the
rudiments of the game in western
Pennsylvania high and prep schools
three Of them at Bellefonte acad-
emy
Another point that might interest
those who started the professionalism
rumor is the fact that the eligibility
rules at Pittsburg university are
practically identical with those Of thel
large eastern institutions, with the
one exception of the residence rule
Popular demand inside the school
this year will put such a rule into
effect before another twelvemonth
according to Manager Davis.

NEW YORK, Dec. 3O.-Battling
Levinsky is hot on the trail Of Jess
Willard, II you'n take It from Dan
Morgan. The latter is the busy let
ter-writing manager OF the battling
one and he is agitating for a match.
Danny has issued a Green Paper"
comparable with the vari-colored pa
pers OF the European countries, in
which the literary manager gets the
following off his mind:
"Jess Willard to fight Jack John
son" II sounds like a joke after
Gunboat Smith outpointing him in
20 rounds and Bearcat Mcmahon
whipping him at Youngstown, Ohio,
d short time ago. Battling Levinsky
has been trying to get Willard into
a ring with him for the past year,
but up TO date Big Jess refuses to
box the Battler Levinsky has whip
ped every heavyweight including
Gunboat Smith and Bearcat McMa-
hon. and stands ready to box Jess
Willard under any conditions. Lev
insky thinks Willard is like a wood
en- Indian that cannot box and is SO
slow that he is in his own way. Now,
II the promoters OF Jess Willard Will
sign up for Levinsky, the public VIII
not be bothered with any more press
stuff regarding Willard to box John
son. since Levinsky will whip him
without any trouble and convince the
sporting world that Big Jess Is a
huge joke"
Help! OF course Morgan is very
much peeved because he has been ig-
nored frequently by the white hope
managers. but it is an open question
whether Levinsky has the punch. II
he does manage TO get a powerful
wallop developed It is to be hoped
that he will get the whole crew into
one ring at one time and put them
away for good And then retire.
