Some players from Cniving- tons league took part in an exhibi- tion game at Indianapolis yesterday, which reports said wound up in a free fight among spectators, players and umpires, and repititions of that sort of thing he wants to prevent. Most of the Eastern and Central States dele gates will gather here next week to begin the trip to the coast in a special train eaving Chicago Nov. 1.

are attracting considerable attention. The semi-finl between Joe Rocco of Hartford and Harry Stanley of Philly should prove to be a hummer. The opponent of the Hartfordite is rated as one of the corners in the 126 pound class, and it is likely that Rocco will meet a boy who will force him to top speed throughout. This mill is carded for 10 rounds.
 The curtain raiser between Johnny Hayes and Red" Mcdonald is prob ably one of the best that has ever been arranged for an exhibition in this state. Both boys on previous ap- pearances gave excellent accounts of themselves, and their meeting tonight will decide a question of supremacy existing for sometime. Eight rounds at 122 pounds is the route and weight scheduled.
 The star bout between Mohr and Marto should replenish the appetites of all lovers of fast fighting who at tend the fray. The lads are both top nOtchers at their weight, and as both are fighting to determine who will have an opportunity of seeking Welch's crown. it should be a lively affair. The men are scheduled to box 12 rounds at 137 pounds.
 John F. Wellis will be the third man in the ring, and E. $. Kilby will as usual watch the ticks of his ac- curate timepiece as timekeeper.

SITUATION IS BAD
 ADMIT ELI COACHES
No Good Kicker, Punter or For.
 ward PaSSer Behind the Line

New Haven, Oct. 26.-Yale football coaches yesterday made no attempt to conceal the fact that they regard the situation critical. We have no good punter, drop-kicker, or forward passer behind the 1ine," said one.
 Our defense is weak and our plan till the Colgate game on Saturday will be to specialize the practice in developing a satisfactory kicker and in strengthening the defense"
 Dr. Billy Bull who has pulled Yale out of several deep holes by develop ing punters, today formed a squad composed of Ames, Way, Savage, Smith, Neville and Waite, who worked an hour in booting the oval Smith, Neville and Waite attempted punt ing Saturday with unsatisfactory re- suits. Way has been called to kick l but will not be played in the back field. If his bunting is as successful as it was yesterday, he will drop 1 back from center to kick occasionally. Carl White resumed center, after a three weeks absence and will be used there Saturday. Savage's knee still troubles him and he cannot be count ed upon for regular work this year.
 Because of injuries received Sat urday, Chub Sheldon, Mose1ey, Scovil and VonHolt did not report but Cap tain Wilson believes that all will be in the lineup next Saturday. Way practlced bunting wearing a plaster i over his eye which was cut Saturday. Paul Wideman, son of the Cincin- nati brewer, was used again at end
 He attempted to start Saturday s game in that position but, because o1 unfamiliartty with it, retired early
 He showed improvement yesterday and will be retained there. In the search for a heavy fullback, Higgin. botham has ben removed from end rush and will be Scovils substitute the remainder of the season. Charley Taft lacks aggressiveness and weight but will undoubtedly get into the fna games as a reserve player.
 Baldridge Black and Guernsey were in uniform yesterday and Baldridge and Black will be used in part o1 Saturdays game. Guernsey will get no more scrimmaging this season.. bu ! will be sent into situations which cal for a drop-kicker. It was an.

ZBYSZKO IS BEATEN IN
 CHAMPIONSHIP BOUT
Alex Aberg, Russian Hercules, Pins the Poles Massive Shoulders
 to the Mat.

New York, Oct. 26.-Ale&ander Aberg completed the winning of the international Graeco-Roman wrestling championship when he threw Waldek Zbyszko in the continuation of their bout deferred from last June, at Mad ison Square Garden last evening. 1t was after an hour and four minutes of rather uninteresting wrestling that Aberg pinned the two brawny shoul- ders of the Pole to the mat at the con clusion of one spectacular incident or the evening. It was a "fluky'' sort ot win at that, as unexpected by Georee Bothner, the referee, as 1t was oy either of the contestants apparently.
 Time had been called for the sev- enth of the ten-minute periods, ana Zybszko took his position on his hands and knees n the middle of the ring with Aberg half prostrate over him and trying to get a waist hold, as he had been when the call of time put an end to the sixth period. Zbyszko was puffing a bit and Bobby Dobbs, his trainer, had just remarked to the watchers at the ring side that he wished he had taken about five pounds more off that boy when
 
 his massive limbs and tossed Aberg to one side with supreme effort.
 With tiger-like agility he grasped his huge blonde opponent, and for the first time in the bout was on top of his opponent and playing the aggres- sor with vigor. He held his suprem- acy only for an instant, for Aberg with a tremendous effort threw himself c. af Txyh 0lyn using a head spin and the following somersa ult to get out of the clutches of his opponent. Both were on their feet squarely when Zybszko rushed al the big Russian, caught him about the waist. lifted him from the floor whirled him about in the air three times until Aberg's sprawling legs !. struck out almost straight, and ther threw him to the mat with resound- ing thud. Zbyszko went down on tor of Aberg. but failed to get firm hold on him.
 Like an eel Aberg slipped from his clutches with a side roll, quick as 2 flash grasped Zbyszko about the head and neck, got a firm head lock, all most a chancery hold, and before Bothner could fairly get where he could see what was happening, had 1 pressed both the back of Zbyszko green jersey and the tips of his two bronzed shoulders to the mat The outcome of the bit of wrestling pyro technics had so surprised Bothner tha' | he hesitated for an instant before h' fully grasped the fact that the ol' bout was at an end, slapped Aberg or the shoulders and raised his hand t indicate that the end of the battl had been reached and waved both mel | to their corners

The customary slump encountered by all teams in various lines of sport, struck the Herald bowling team last night on the Aetna alleys, With the re- suit that the Times team of Hartford won in 8 walk from the locals in three straight games. The boys from the Capitol City were in tip top shape and gave an excellent account Of themselves, and more firmly stamped themselves as one of the best neWspa- per bowling teams in the state.
 Our old friend "Battler' Anderson was on his mettle last night, and rolled in consistent fashion, getting the high pinfall for the evening, 29O. His teammates however, were all in good form and McCue ad Rogers se- cured scores of PTS and 27O, respec- lively. It was a fine exhibition and to the victors goes the spells. The scores:

TRINITY SENATE VOTES
 TO SUPPORT BRICKLEY
Present Eligibility Rule to Be Adhered To-WflI Issue Statement. s
 This Week

Hartford, Oct. 26.-Despite the fact that thus far Trinity College athletic bodies have had no formal protests from any of the colleges on its foot ball schedule regarding the playing Of George Brickley in its lineup at full back, the senate last night took cogni- zance of the affair, following the ac- ton of the Williams athletic council last Friday night, and placed them selves on record as standing by Brick ley thus far in this much talked of question of eligibility. More than that they have asked the athletic advisory board to give out a formal statement anent the colleges position with fs- gard to Brickley being a member of the football eleven.
 The Trinity senate is composed of the captains of the various athletic squads, a representative from each fraternity, and representatives picked by each class. Last night this body met and decided that the same eligibil- ity rules that have been in vogue at Trinity in the past with regard 70 sports, should be maintained in the future. This means that men in order to be eligible for athletic competition in college shall be obliged solely to maintain a certain percentage in their 1 studies When asked if this referred in any way to the Brickley case the answer was made that while there was no necessity to mention Bricklay's name in such a vote, yet the vote was | taken in order to show the spirit of the college in connection with the action of Williams last Friday night | Therefore, the vote means that the senate, which represents college opin- ion, is satisfied to have Brickley as a l member of the football team.
 The senate also voted that the ad- visory athletic board be requested. to
 issue a statement this week for pub-
 Iication in the newspapers. showing
 Trinitys standing with regard tn
 eligibility for participation in Trinity
 sports. It is understood that this
 statement will be issued by Wednesday
 or Thursday at the latest.

Speed is a vital factor and science holds it's place. But the Old Wallop covers up a multitude of mediocrity.
 For the bloke with the wallop can afford to trade one punch for ten, the basis of exchange that Moran used with Coffey.

 The report was circulated that w. & J. was below standard. But, &C., cording to Yale, this report was gross ly exaggerated.

 The Michigan mandarin had known but one double barrelled fancy since Harvard decided to replace Michigan with Cornell. This was for Cornell to beat Harvard, and then for Michi- gan to come through by trimming Cornell. The first barrel of this fancy was a success. But after the Asgies had concluded and the debris had been collected, not even the most op- timistic Wolverine partisan could see anything with the Comedian and White.
