ALBERTS ON CARD

Johnny Maher Signs New York Boy
 to Clash With Costica in Semi
 final Bout.
 New Haven, Dec. 6.-Jack Maher, matchmaker of the Marlin A. C., which is to stage a series of bouts at the Arena on Friday night, last night announced that he has signed Johnny CKid) Alberts of New York city, to box Alex Costica of this city in the seml-hnal bout of ten rounds. AL berts and Costica take the place of Willie Hill and Hugh Ross, who were originally booked for the semi-final attraction. The change was made necessary owing to the failure of Hill to go through with his contract Hill claimed he was too i'll to box. The signing of Alberts and Costica com pletes the card
 Matchmaker Maher went to New York yesterday and got in touch with Leo F. Flynn who readily consented to allow Alberts to box Costica. AL berts has appeared in Connecticut several times and made a favorable impression in every bout. Costlca is the boxer who was brought to this country two years ago by Tom O'Rourke, the New York promoter. Costica was billed to fight Tony Ma reno of Bridgeport at the Arena last week but the latter refused to box owing to his opponents great advan tage in weight. Costica, or Caval- laro, as he is known here, has showed up we'll in his workouts and should prove a formidable opponent for AL berts.
 Maher was eager to match Ross against Mike McTigue, K. O. Sweeney or Johnny (Kid) Alberts, but the Bridgeport boy would not consent to such a match. Consequently Maher landed Costica to meet Alberts.

So far as Courage vs Efficiency goes, you may recall the case of the big boy in school that every one thought was a coward. Probably he was, in a way. Other kids picked on him at will, but no one could make him fight. He resented nothing, backing away from any physical mix up. Then one day, crowded and forced into battle. he found he was strong enough and big enough to smear the school bully. From that point on, with his newly developed confidence, he was the best scrapper in his neighborhood. He had found at last that he had the stuff to win with.

They tell you that Matty was a great pitcher largely because of his brains and courage, of which he has more than an average share. Then,> how about Rube Waddell. who was never credited with either asset to any notable extent. and yet who over a span of years was one of the hardest pitchers to beat that ever lived?

Random Observations.

We have been chided of late by a number of pained readers for our sug- gestion that courage in sport is an overplayed institution. Courage" says one writer, lis the basis of suc- cess in any game; the foundation of any championship career; the greatest single asset in any sport. Without courage no competitor has a chance. To say otherwise is to belittle the greatest single trait in human nature.'

You frequently hear of the "yellow streak" But how often do you see an entry with "yellow streak who has had the patience to develop his skill to a point of sane confidence in his ability to win How often do you see what is called a fine mechanical player with the spirit to train properly curl up and quit?

It is not our idea ot belittle what is known as courage. But our belief is this-given equal conditions, upon the broad average, one man or one nation is about as brave as another man or another nation. And we have seen too often in sport where efficiency or skill or good fortune was deprived of it's credit in behalf of nerve or courage or gameness

They used to say that it was John J. McGraw's aggressiveness and fighting spirit that made the Giants pennant winners. This was 100 per cent. bunk. It was McGraw's ability to pick ma teria1, instruct this material in the fundamentals and develop team play that put him in front. No one ever accused Connie Mack of being a fire eater, but Connie has six big league pennants to his credit
New Britain herald., 1916-12-06

Courage and brains have been given high place in sport. They make en- tries who looked smart in their indi- vidual fields because they knew every kink of the game. And we have seen a good many others with no part Of a lions heart who were brave enough in their own narrow lines because they knew what they had-because they knew this was enough to win with.
New Britain herald., 1916-12-06

No quitter of course, is going to get by in any. game. But the average entry who starts out to build his game in the right way, who develops efficiency and skill by hard work, rarely quits against the test. With efficiency backing him up, confidence comes as a running mate, and the re- suit is generally success.
 There are two leading essentials in sport One is the knack to do things. The other is the development of this knack through hard work and in finite patience. This combination will beat the bravest entry that ever lived who lacks this knack or has never developed it.

500 Carrducista soldiers and camp
followers were massacred by Bronco
Yaquis early this week i'm lower So
nora, according to stories told today
by arrivals from that part of Mexico.
Those of the de facto detachment not
killed by gun fire. il is said, were
burned at the stake.
While reports place the number OF
dead at 300, estimates made on the
known disposal of troops near the
scene of the massacre. put the loss at
200.
News Of the disaster to the Carran-
IA force has caused extreme unrest
among the several thousand Yequis
and MayOs now at Empalme. While
II is known that large numbers Of
Yauuis have joined the de factO army,
there has been general disbelief that
the entire Indian nation, including the
Bronco or wild yaquis have made
peace with the Mexicans. For that
reason the reports of the revolt and
ensuing slaughter generally are cred
tied
General Estrada has had several
thousand troops In the Yaqui valley
holding back the Yaquis, and it is be-
lioved the opportunity for the report
ed massacre came about when Estra-
da moved his main command north of
Hermosillo and Magdalena in the

FRANCE ABANO0NS
LONDON DECLARATION

Paris. July S-The French govern
ment, following the example of Great
Britain has abandoned the decara-
ton Of London as an Interpretation Of
maritime international law. a de-
cree to that effect appears In TINS
mornings official journal.
A memorandum accompanying the
decree says that the rules in the Lon
don declaration were adopted by the
entente allies at the beginning Of the
war as being the most eXpedlent, but
that experience has shown that they
did not give the results expected,
either in securing to belligerents a
fun exercise of rights or affording
adequate guarantees to neutrals. Con
sequently the memorandum con-
tlnues, circumstances Obliged the al
lies to modify the rules Of the declaT-
alton. But these successive modifi-
cations led to false interpretations Of
the allies motives, therefore they de-
cided it werc better to return to tho
original rules of international law as
generally accepted.
In so doing. the memorandum con-
cludes, the allies declare solcmnly
they will continue to observe the
principles rigidly, respecting lives ana
property of neutrals and being ready
to make compensation for any nnius-
tifiable damage caused to bona fide
merchants
