O'Hearn Is Given a Rest.

When the Cornell varsity team
lined up for the scrimmage yester-
day afternoon there were great gaps
in the ranks caused by the absence
of a number of the star players.
None of the regulars is rated as in
jured, but the coaches decided to give
them rest for the Franklin and
Marshall game on Saturday, and to
get them in trim for the game with
Michigan to be played on November
IA Barrett and Shuler were out Of
the work Captain O'Hearn was or
dered to lay off for three days by the
coaches yesterday in the hope that
his injured leg would be in better
shape by that time and that he
might be able to regain his speed.
In the meantime Lautz was placed
at right end, and unless O'Hearn i'm
proves 1t is not unlikely that the
first scrub will do the major part of
the work In the games to come.

Jack johnson is no longer In a posi-
ton 70 sit back and dictate. Before
the European war, when Paris and
London were open to him, there was
little chance OF his ever heading to
this country again. But with the
closing of these avenues OF revenue
by the war all the trump cards were
suddenly flung into the hands Of pro-
moters on this side OF the Atlantic
ocean.
The champion can no longer pick
his opponents. He must meet the OPP
poaents picked for him O. SO without.

JOHNSON NO LONGER DICTATOR
BECAUSE OF WAR SITUATION

And going without is out OF the ques-
ton. Had he saved his money It
would have been an entirely different
proposition. He could afford to sit
tight for some time to come and await
developments, but under existing con-
ditions he is hard pressed. To relieve
the pressure of debt he undoubtedly
will be willing to meet Gunboat Smith
or Jess Willard in the ring, even
though he may fear the loss of his
crown. The size of the purse. how
ever, can still be regulated pretty
much by Johnson

rordham Defeats Gettysburg.

Fordham defeated the heavy
Gettysburg team on Fordham Field
yesterday by 81 to 2, at New York.
Yule, Dunn and Regain. the Maroon
backfield trio, each scored a touch
down. while the visitors score came
as the result of a safety when Dunn
was tackled behind his own goal line.
Although fumbling figured in the
first touchdown, 1t was tho marked
improvement of the Fordham back
field that counted in the result. Dis
playing a series of double passes that
were run off with speed and power,
Dunn, Yule and Kane cut off tackle
or circled the ends for the gains that
spelled victory for Fordham. The
Fordham team made twenty-three
first downs to nine for Gettysburg
and gained four times as much
ground.

Coach George II. Brooke's appeal to

Coach Frank Hinkey gave the Yale
varsity football team twenty minutes
of hard scrimmage against the scrubs
and the regulars won by score of
Il to 0. Dupring the course of the
scrimmage Knowles, the veteran
Yale halfback, sustained an injury
to his ankle when some one stepped
ON it during the scrimmage. He was
able to walk from the field, however,
and he is expected to play against
Brown. Cornell was sent in for
Knowles after the latter was hurt.
Jack Wiley, who playd regularly at
centre until he was displaced by
White, went back to his old position
yesterday and played well. Stillman
returned to right end and Gould took
Brann's place at left end. Captain
Talbot took an active part In signal
drill for the first time in two weeks.
He did not enter the scrimmage,
Whittlesley being sent in in his place.

BASKETBALL GOSSIP

One of the surprises of the season
&c the poor showing of the Troys, OF
Union Hill, to date. The Troys were
beaten on Sunday by the Knieker-
lockers. who defeated the National
Turner's and lost to the Bay Views.
The Troys are composed of Beckman,
Harvey, Doyle, Shea and Wallum, all
we'll known in this city.
The Riverview basketball quintet,
OF Secaucus, has added Skeets
Wright, of the Paterson Crescents,
and Acker and Williams, OF the
Knickerbockers. to the lineup.
Mcintyre, who jumped centre for
the st. Vincent de Paul team against
the Bay Views on Sunday, is also
member OF the Point Five, of Eliza
beth, formerly Of Bayonne. Mac"
dropped in Ave baskets for the Saints
on Sunday.
George Stanford made his debut as
a. member of the National Turner'S on
sunday. George displayed speed and
accuracy in eaging field goals and
free throws.
The showing of the National Turner
Juniors to date indicates that they
will make the Bay View Juniors
hustle when the teams come together
in a series. Such stars as Charley
Ecker, Of Barringer High School:
william Abrahamson. Of Central
High; Eickenbusch, Schilling and
Mat Clark are enrolled with the
Turner's.
Though they call him ''Porky'
Flynn, the heavy guard OF the BAY
Views Juniors Is one Of the best goal
cagers in these parts. Flynn tips the
scale at 1870 pounds, but gets around
the court in lively fashion. He scored
eight field goals In the game against
the National A. G. on Sunday.
Andy Chambers, who referees the
basketball games at Hantmann's
Hall, Harrison, Thursday nights, has
branched out as a manager. Andy is
leading the st. George Five, of Pat
erson, which will open the season at
Arnold's Hall, Paterson, tomorrow
night with the Troys, of Union Hill,
as the attraction. Among the players
signed by Chambers are Harry Har-
ing, Nick Harvey and Otto Kelvin.
Manager Chambers is dickering for
local player OF note.
Manager Cavanaugh, OF the Harri-
son Big Five, announces that he has
secured the services of Arthur Good

d a close game might very easlly
hinge indirectly on the unramlllarlIy
OF the Crimsons' opponents with the
afternoon light The Tigers opened
their practice on the freshman neld,
where they faced squarely toward
the sun. -,
The men who are possible supstl-
t1ites for the Harvard contest were

coaches until they received the can

scrubs that lasted for an hour.

the manager and part owner of the
Philadelphia Athletics really work

Jennings is doing a vaudeville turn,

It out that the public would very
likely be interested in this bit of
news, which, of course, was sup
posed to be a dead secret for some
time yet. But things we're dull with
Hugh. Even Partner Ben's richest
and ripest stories didn't seem to put
any life in the old boy. Nor did the
air Of Atlantic City appear to give
him the "old pep" we hear so much
about. What jennings wanted was
excitement. He tried golf, but that
didn't touch the spot. Finally along
came the Mack request for waivers
on his three old star pitchers. Eth
Yah was on one leg with his whis-
tie in working order. Jennings, the
manager, would never have perpe-
trated such a trick, but Jennings

kept secret. Result, the theatrical
