Boxing a, the Hippodrome

Boxing exhibitions were conducted
at the Hippodrome on Monday hight,
under the auspices of the athletic asso-
citation. Ty Cobb, a Philadelphia box
er, met Johnny Ryan, of Wildwood.
They boxed cleverly and for the
eighteen minutes they were entertain
ing the members they more than
pleased. or course, there was no de-
cision rendered, as the boxing is con-
Quoted for pleasure and not profit. The
feeling amongst the spectators was that
Cobb had earned the advantage. Ryan
is improving with every performance
and with q little more ex experience will
make it mighty interesting for Cobb
and others of his class.
A battle royal pleased the crowd.
Three other contests helped to make
the evenings performance a genuine
success.
Tomorrow afternoon will be "Athletic
day. atthe Hippodrome and an attrac-
tive boxing program will be presented.
Johnny Dietz is in charge of the con-
tests.

struck q large tree in the vicinity of
Mace's big store, shattering the tree
badly. Persons who journeyed out to

The inclement weather conditions
which prevailed last Sunday put q
damper on the usual weekly excursion
crowds to Anglesea, but despite this
fact, there we're several merry parties
who ~journeyed across the "barn to en-
joy the fishing.
Newcomers OF interest at the Ger
mantown hotel include o. l.. Wasch

Pound fishing around Anglesea took
on a big improvement commencing
Wednesday. The first two days of the
week were a trifle slow, but the latter
part the fishermen brought in fish In
large numbers. Lots of fish but very
low prices.

Georee skaIrngs and his Boston, Braves will meet with Connie Mack's s Athletics in the worlds series without J. Carlisle (..Red'O Smith in their line up. Smith, considered one of the best third basenen in the National league, broke his right leg while sliding into second base at Ebbets Field yesterday afternoon and is in St. Mary's hospital. Brooklyn There is not a. chance of Smith even watching one of the big games, let alone playing against the Athletics.
 At the hospital last night it was said the third basennau had sustained a straight Potts fracture of the nbula. bone few inches above the ankle and that all the fragments of the ankle had been badly torn- It win be several weeks before he can leave the hos pital.
 The accident that robbed staIfngs of his star third baseman occurred in the ninth inning of the first game. At the time the. Braves were trailing the Robins by one run, Jeff Prefer was pitching. Schmidt opened with a sim gle over second Smith followed with a clean drive to right. Stengel threw to catch Schmidt at third and Smith attempted to reach second on the throw. As he neared the base he made a break to slide, but stopped. When he saw that he would be caught he threw himself for a faHaway slide and his right leg doubled under him
 Smith was unable to get up. Gut shaw rushed over and picked him up. He was carried to the club house.
 The loss of Smith on the eve of the Worlds Series will be hard blow to Stal1ings. Smith is considered the greatest speed ball hitter in the old Eorganiza ton. He was bought by Sta1Iings some weeks ago from Brook lyn and had been putting up a strong game for the Braves.
 Stallings said last night that he was uncertain whether he would use Deal or Whitted at third in the coming series Deal played third for the Braves before Smith was purchased. If Whttted takes Srnith's place, Mann will play center field.
 While Sta1l1ngs admitted that the loss of Smith is a heavy blow to him, he said that he Is still confident of winning the Worlds Series

 OF RING BATTLES

1867-Gentleman George Dawson, born at Dark Corner, Australia He escaped from his Dark Corner" and got into the hmelight at the age of Is, when he went to Brisbane and cap tured the amateur lightweight cham pionship. He soon entered the pro- fessiona ranks and won all his fights in Australia except one with Tom Will Hams, who refused. to give the Gen tIemans a return match. The stories of the big coin being collected by Australian fighters in America decid- ed George to go and do likewise, and early in 1892 he hopped off a steam ship at San Francisco and issued a challenge to fight and welterweight in America bar none He knocked out Billy Gallagher, Danny Needham and Doe O'Conne11 in San Francisco, and was then matched to fight Tommy Ryan at New Orleans for $6, 900, but the Syracuse boy had tonsilitis or som nething-Dawson's friends diagnos- ed it as cold feet-and refused to fight. More than twenty years ago Dawson quit the ring and started his long career as boxing instructor at a Chicago athletic club.

YALE FIRST TEAM BEATEN
 BY SECONDS

Mel scoville and Otis Guerney, the two Yale backs. who recently regained their eligibility, were used on the scrubs yesterday at Yale field against the varsity, and their handling of the forward passes netted two touchdowns, ScoVille scoring one on a 5Q-yard run and Quarter Savage the other. In every portion of the practice yes terday, the scrubs outpIayed the reg ulars, and would have scored a. touch down as the practice drew towards an end but for the interference of the coaches who thought the players had enough scrimnage work until later in the afternoon. Scovil1e and Guern- sey shot the forward passes with un- usual accuracy and for a while seem ed to have the regulars at their mercy.
 The varsity, weakened by the ab- sencef of Aleck Wilson, Captain TaI- bolt, TAinsworth and Church, failed to score, although they had the ball on the scrubs 15-yard line when time elapsed.

 EXPECTS TO
 BEAT HARVARD

E Ann Harbor, Mich, Oct. 7satur- days football results have greatly in creased the spirit of optimism in the Michigan campus as the result of the overwhelming victories of Yosts men over Dc Pauw and Case. The Case score was the largest Michigan has amassed in eighteen battles with the Cleveland scientists, and Yost was ahle to observe all of his young gsters under fire in both of the tits last week. The defeat of Penn and the second setback of Cornell. combined with the small score the Michigan Aggies ran up on Olivet,s has led the wolverine support CTS to believe that this years schedule is not the impossible affair 1t first ap- peared to be.
 Right now Michigan students figure Harvard is the only team Yost must work to defeat when they meet at Cambridge on October 31, and the way the basketball tactics of Springfield Y M c.

PENN CENTER IS
 OUT FOR SEASON

Philadelphia, Oct. 7-There was great gloom in the Pennsylvania football camp yesterday when it was learned that Don Carter the big center, who was injured in the game with Frank lin and Marshall last Saturday, would be sout for Ithe rest of the season.
 An x-ray exanfna tions Of Carter's in jured leg showed that the kneecap was fractured. It is likely to keep Carter out of athletics for the rest of his ca reer. Tn addition to being a fine center he was one of the surest placement kickers on the squad. His loss pre- sents a big problem to George Brooke, as Borie, the second string center prac- tica1ly lost the game on Saturday with his mediocre passing.

@ wagn@.)

The injury to Smith, the Boston third baseman, may not prove such a calamity after all Past history in the occasions the man who was substitut ed often did better than the regular player could have performed. Take the 1911 worlds series for instance. When First Basenan Stuffy ADcInnes of the Athletics was injured just be- fore the Adaclz1nen clashed with the Giants it was freely predicted that the loss of the brilliant younggter would mean the Athletics downfall
 , Yet Harry Davds, who had been out of the game all season and was be- heved to be to sEow, jumped in, played wonderfully at first and pounded out many hits. The same thing may hap pen this year. Deal. who will take Smiths place, is likely to give a fine exhibition He, is no untried young ster but has put in several years with high class clubs. He was tried out by Detroit 8 few years ago and later sent to Providence. He did so well last year there that Sta1Iings took him for Boston He was the regular third sacker for Boston this year until Smith was secured from Brooklyn
 Unless the Navy is willing to accert the compromise plan of having alter r nabe games, in New York and Phila- delphia, there will be no Army Navy contest this year. This was announced yesterday by government officials.
 The New York Americans by win ming yesterday from the Athletics made 1t certain that they cannot finish worset than a tie for sixth place If they win today and the White Sox lose the Yankees will have clear title to sixth. Nflanager Peckinpaugh has done well since he took charge of the club.
 It has been decided to call off the FWolgast-Tommy Murphy bout which was scheduled for Milwaukee, Friday night. WoIgast demanded 25 per cent.
