NEW YORK STATE TO
 START EGG BOYCOTT
Hotel Mems Association Urged to Join in Plan to Lower Prices
 Now Prevailing

New York, December 5.-Thirty-four cents a day is sufficient for the ration of male r years of age and over in New York city, the New York Associa- tion for Improving the Condition of the Poor has announced. The association recently increased it's allowance from 27 cents.
 The allowance for woman over 16. the association reports, is PIP cents, and the allowance for children ranges from 10.2 cents for child under to SO.6 cents for boy IS years old.
 John McGlynn, president of the State Hotel Mems association, has sent every hotel in the state a letter calling upon the management to join in the boycott against eggs. A statewide boycott against eggs will begin Wednesday morning, it was said.
 Commissioner of Weights and Meas ures Hartigan said tonight that two weeks probably would not be sufficient time in which to bring the price of eggs to 8 cents a dozen At state depart ment of food and markets it was an- nounced that the price of storage eggs had dropped 1 cent today and fresh eggs 2 cents.

SCHMIDT KICKING !. ON PLAYING WITH
 MEMPHIS CHICKS
Former Pilot of Gulls Does Not Want to Play in Mem phis-Will Name New
 Manager Soon

Memphis, December 5.-Charlie Schmidt, Mobile catcher and manager for the past two seasons, is kicking on the deal whereby he becomes the property of the Memphis club. Charlie ayers that he doesn't want to play in Memphis.
 This is a peculiar come-off, as Memphis is close to Schmidt's Arkansas home and is certainly much more attractive place to pastime in than the one he has been favoring with his presence in the baseball season.
 Furthermore it seems practically cer- tain that Schmidt will be manager of the Chicks in case he decides to report. George Moriarty is "set' in his determi- nation to become an umpire and retire as a player.
 Bob Higgins has been most promi- nently mentioned to succeed Moriarty at Memphis, but Bob will have no place on team that boasts an iron man" catcher like Schmidt. Both Bob and Charlie are accustomed to catch practically every game for their clubs during a season and either would be lost in trying to live through the ennui of bench duty.
 It is expected that the Memphis man. agement will announce the name of their new manager before the league meeting is held in Nashville December 15. So far only three names have been mentioned, namely, Higgins, Schmidt and Barger.

Tech Best Scoring Squad;
 GilOy Leads IndiDldudlS
Georgetown Second With 412-Gilroy Scored 139 Pontsoi phant Second With 112-Strupper Led South
 With 81-other Scores

New York, December 5.-The close of the intercollegiate football season finds both the team and individual scoring hon ors held by southern eleven and player. A comparison of the records of the lead ing teams of the east, south and middle west shows that the Georgia Tech com bination scored 420 points in nine games, with Georgetown university a close sec ond, with 412, while Left Halfback Gilroy of Georgetown leads the individual point collectors with d total of 139 points and OHphant of the Army team is second with 1l2.
 Gilroy has scored is touchdowns and 9l goals during the season to date and still has chance to increase these figures in the contest to be played against Tulane at New Orleans on December 9. Onphant's record is a more versatile one since he has made 13 touchdowns, 21 goals and four field goals. Maulbersch of Michigan is a close third with 12 touchdowns 2l goals and one field goal. None of these players equaled the record made by Cap tain Barrett of the Cornell eleven of last year, for the latter rolled up a total of 162 points with 2 touchdowns, 2 goals and one field goal. Gilroy was second in 1915 with 96 points and Hastings of Pitts burg third with 76
 The records of the leadings elevens in total points scored and the players who have collected the largest number of points, individually follow:

Willard and Carpenter 10
 Meet in TO- Round Bout
Battle Will Staged in New York Within Next Two Months Will Be No Decision Affair-French Relief Fund
 to Receive $40,000

aid of the members of one of the French relief fund committees that the contest was made possible Pressure was brought to bear upon officials in France and their consent obtained for Carpen- tier to leave the army and the country for about three months
 To secure this unusual concession it was necessary for Rickard to agree to give this fund the sum of $400OO, in addi- tion to paying Carpenters traveling and training expenses. This money has been put up in the form of a. bonded deposit and in return those interested in the fund have agreed to deliver Carpenter in this country within the next few weeks.
 A personal contract with Carpenter is now on it's way to Paris, where the French champion is expected to sign it without delay, as he is conversant with the details of the plan, and has agreed to the meeting.
 The private arrangements between the relief fund committee and the French pugilst are not known to the promoters. but it is understood that Carpenter has offered to box for his expenses and has stipulated that any profits that may ac- crue to him shall be applied to the gen. eral uses of the fund in the same man. ner as any other contribution.
 Carpentier has not engaged in a prize ring battle since July, 1914 After his en- listment he served with the French avia- ton and motor corps and has been sent to the rear at least once because of wounds.
 ''As the result of his army train ing and campaigning Carpenter is re- ported to be in splendid physical con- dition and ready to step into the ring again after short period of boxing practice. He weighs about 190 pounds in fighting condition and is conceded to be the cleverest boxer and hardest hitter among European pugilists. The only possibility of hitch in the arrangements is a demand by Willard for a share of the purse out of pro- portion to the estimated gate receipts. If this develops Rickard plans to match Carpenter with Les Darcy, the Austrian middleweight champion, who is understood to be en route to this country.
 Willard recently called Rickard to Chicago for a conference regarding the proposed bout with Carpenter, but his terms at that time were understood to have been considered entirely too high. It is said. however that the champion has since reduced his terms to about the same amount he received for meeting Frank Moran last March, which was $47500.
 Willard, should the pugilists meet, will outweigh Carpenter by 50 to 60 pounds, and will tower fully six inches above his French opponent.

New York, December 5.-George Car pentier. heavyweight champion pugilist of France, and Jess Willard worlds champion, are virtually matched for a 1O-round, no-decision bout, to be fought in this city within the next two months
 While the final signatures of the pu- gilists have not been secured, the verbal consent of both heavyweights has been obtained and they are now waiting for the articles of agreement to be for warded to them.
 The sum of s40,0OO from the receipts is to go to a French war relief fund, there fore, permission was obtained for the re- lease of Carpenter from the French army.
 Final contracts are expected to be signed by Promoter Tex Rickard and the representatives of the pugilists here within a few days. The date and place has not yet been definitely decided, but the battle probably will be staged in Madison Square Garden, or a similar place.
 The match has been in the making for several months, and the correspondence and other arrangements lift the promo tion of the bout within a notch or two of international diplomacy.
 Carpentier, holder of the European heavyweight championship, has been serving with the French army since the beginning of the war.
