YALE LIKELY TO NUMBER PLAYERS
 BY NEXT SEASON

New Haven, Nov. 27-Although Yale has consistently refused to num- Der its football players, former Eli ca obtains and stars are practically unit in favor of the reform, and a canvass made by the .'Yale Daily News established the fact that at Harvard, as well at Princeton. where the Innovation has been put in- to effect, there is practical unanim1ty in endorsing it.
 That it may be tried at Yale. next fall is indicated by the News" article which says. that s'the fact that twenty one prominent gridiron stars urge making numbering compulsory, points almost unanimously toward the adop- ton of the rule.''
 Ex-Captain Charley Gould Sammy Morse and Fred Daly of Yale favor it., fDaly being a recent convert. Johnny de Sau1Ies and Carl Flanders, former Yale stars, expressed themselves fav- orables to the change. Former liar yard captain who came out for the re- form are Edgar Wrightington, Dan Hurley, Hamilton Fish, Percy Wen dell and Charley BrickIey. Old Princeton players who favor it were Kelley, Edwards, Booth and Street. Journeay and, Moffett of University of Pennsylvania, and Thorp of Colurn- bia also urged it. Kersberg and Ham, Harvard, alone opposed it. Charley Gould said:--
 .'As there are no reasons why the players should not be numbered, and at least one good reason why they should be numbered; namely, that of making it possible for the spectators to follow not only the play, but also the individual I strongly favor its adoption
 S. F. B. Morse gave the following opinion: ttDo not see any possible ob- lection to numbering players. Off hand, it would seem to me a convent ence tb spectators. Do not under stand how it could affect players in any way.'' Fred Daily said: t.I am in favor bf numbering players since it affords sso much pleasure to spectators was opposed to it because of emphasis on in dividuaI instead of team. The rule ed instead of recommending that players be numbered, as in the present rules.''
 John de -Saul1es said that he was in favor of the numbering system from the crack of the whip.'' He said that while he did not believe in the system when it was first tried out, he had been converted since, along with many other football men. " helped coach a little bit at the University of Virginia this fall,''s he said, t's,hd saw the VIT- ginia-VanderbiIt game. The players  | I was able to follow them easily be- cause of this"
 Carl Flanders also declared in fav- 1 O. of the system. 'The numbering system adds to the enjoyment of the game from the spectators standpoint,' D he said. At first I was opposed to the, system, but now I that it is a good thing. I look for the numbers myself, which l guess is a pretty good test of my feelings on the ques- tiCn-,s

CLAIM FOUL AS
 M'CARTY IS SENT
 AWAY BY COWLER

New York, Nov. 27-Tom Cowler, England's latest boxer to make a bid for the heavyweight championship, scored technical knockout over Tommy Mccarthy, a heavyweight from Montana, and cousin of the late Luther McCarty, in the second round of their scheduled 1o-round bout in 35th street last night. Opinions were of the club. as to whether fthe blow, nevertheless ended the bout, was fair or foul.
 The men were mixing it hard on and Mccarthy, fin a crouching position to avoid the swings of his adversary, left an opening on the left side of his body, and the English heavyweight. quick to take advantage of the op- .poFtunity, sent over a. crushing right hand swing which. landed on the jaw, enar the left ear.
 Just as the gloved fist of Cowler struck his opponent Tom Jones, man ager of Jess Willard, heavyweight champion, who was tirnekeeper, sounded the bell signifying the ter imitation of the round. Both things happened exactly at the same mo- ment. Cow1er's glove reaching his opponents face with the ring of the gong, and many in the crowd of spec tators thought the blow was foul, with the result that there were scat tered cries /to this effect. Kid Mo Partland, officiating as referee, refus- ed to recognize a foul.

 Not content with this. he insisted on going down on the field after New York had won, 1 to o, and went up te the great catcher, still as abusive as ever.
 Kelly looked him over from head to foot. Then he said:

A beautiful day and an enthusias- tic crowd of rifle shooters combined to make the first outdoor meet of the Remington Arms Rifle club held on the state range Thanksgiving morn- ing, a very successful affair. Five shots were allowed to a round. A turkey or goose was the reward for the marksman making the highest score in each round on the 200 yard range and 2 chtcken for high score in each round on the 100 yard range. Had the men been shooting for ex- pensive trophy, they could not have displayed more zeal to. win than did the rivals in this contest for the pro testing denizens of the farnyard.
 J. w. Johnson led in trophies won and left for home with a goose and turkey tucked under his arms. The drafting room led among the depart ments by capturing two chickens and a goose. G. M.

ENCHMAN IS PINNED TO MAT
 BY B0HE MAN

New York. Nov. 27-The Manhat- tan Opera House rocked from roof to cellar last night when Pierre Le Colesse was thrown in the interna- tionaI wrestline tournament by Karl Pospisil of Bohemia with a, wrist and body lock in s7 minutes and 45 sec onds. The F'renchman really threw himself as hel whirled Pospisil over his head and pinned him to the mat, but the momentum was so great that Le Colosse continued in his course and turned himself flat on his back, whereupon the Bohemian sat on his shoulders, got a wrist and body lock, and pinned the Frenchmans down.
 Le Colosse thought he had won and acboWed gracefully before the plaudits of the crowd until the ref ere informed. him that his opponent was the winner.
 Linow, the ough-and-readys Cos sack, more than met his match in s.Stra ngler's Lewis. and after Il min utes and 20 seconds had elapsed Li- now complained that he was injured by Lewis and refused to continue Two doctors examined the Cossack and pron6unced him in good condi- tfon.s but Linow insisted that he was the best judge of his condition and said so in a speech to the crowd.

McGraw and stallings
 Want Player Limit iI
 Big Leagues Increased

John McGraw and George Stallings have formed a strong allegiance to go into the winter meeting of the Nation al League with the idea of forcing the moguls to abandon the 21-pIayer linn it. The nagnates would be foolish if they allowed the lid to be taken off again. writes & E.. Mccarthy in the Pittsburgh Leader. New York is kick ing. McGraw planes the limit for his team finishing last, If that is right, then the National League has been boosted. New York always has more money than any other club in the CIT cult, could spend it; could carry on extra heavy list of men and be in a better position to freeze out their op- ponents.
 McGraw is hitting a time when his stars must be replaced. The winning of the pennant by the Phfls did more to revive real interest in the National League than anything else that could have happened. Twenty-one players =ls enough The American League limit is twenty-five, yet there were only two teams who had more than twenty-one on their roster during the regular playing season.
 The Pirates found it very easy r9 get along under the 21-in1it rule, and the local club is going through a pro. cess of rebuilding, too. McErslW ana -stallings will probably find their ideas cast into the same receptacle used Ref holding Pittsburg protests

WAGNER'S OWN COLUMN

On the heels of a rumor that he was all through as pitcher Ray, Heating of this city went to New York yesterday and called upon Business Manager Harry Sparrow of the New York Americans. Heating thinks the strained muscles of his back, which prevented him from working most of last season, have mended. He will be sent to Macon, Ga, about February l in order that Manager Donovan may learn whether the local boy will be able to get into shape. Heating is 25 pounds lighter than last year at this time.
 Dr. Al Sharpe admits that if he were free he would accept an offer to coach the Yale football squad. But inasmuch as he has just signed a five year contract with Cornell the chances of his going to Yale are very slim He declares he is contented at Cornell but as he is a Yale man and owes his first allegiance to his alma mater he would go to Yale if such a thing were possible. But just imagine Cornell, after winning the football championship, giving up man like Sharpe.

 FLYNN; WILLIAMS
 PUTS HAGNEY OUT

The Acorn A. c, members are feel ing happy today for their fellow members. Battling I4evinsky and Lar ry Williams, won their bouts at the Harlem Sporting club, New York. last night. Williams knocked out Frank Hagney of Australia. in 'thea third round with a right to the jaw. Will Hams has left for Philadelphia where he will tackle Lengthy Rosen Mon day night.
 The New York Sun says of the bouts:-
 Battling Levinsky outpointed Dan >(Porky) Flynn in the chief contest at the heavyweight show of the liar lem, Sporting club last night. At the beginning Levinsky rushed Flynn, but soon found that he could make little impression on the Bostonian by this method.
 In the third round Levinsky had driven Flynn to the ropes just when the bell sounded, and as Flynn put out his hand Levinsky came across with left to the, face that surprised Flynn. After the fifth round Levin sky fought more carefully, peppering his man with left jabs often enough to earn the decision.
