SPORT TALK
HANDED OUT
BY WAGNER

"A few hearty outlaws next Tuesday
night Jolly Jake Fuller will bring
his team, of Interstate stars to play
against the Blue Ribbons.
Charley Schmidt denies the report
that he intends to return to the game
as first ba,seman of the Braves He'll
have to stick to his retirement story
now that the Braves have bought
Konetchy from the Feds.
Battling Levinsky will be in there
collecting the ,bankroll again tomor-
row night. He will tackle Wild Burt
Kenny before the Long Acre A. c. in
New York. Jack Dillon is on the
same card as an opponent of Denver
Jack Geyer.
At a meeting of the Pennsylvania
football candidates last night, Coach
Bob FolweH told the boys they have
a harder schedule for next season
than Harvard ever faced. Bob Fol-
well insisted that Penn will win ev-
cry game. While coach at Washing
ton & Jefferson. a college that has
only a few hundred students, F'oIwel1
won 81 games and lost but five. He
will have fine material at Penn and
if he is not htndered by the inside in
fuences, which have kept socially
prominent men on the team in other
years. F7olwell will undoubtedly
make a success.
Manager Pat Moran of the Phillies
denies the story that he has bought
Ihf1e1der Dave Shean from the Phil
lies. He says Niehoff will continue
to play second for the Phillies. Moran
also declaresi he got a bargain in Out
fielder Good, secured from the Cubs
at the waiver price. He believes
this was a better deal than buying I'M
certain Federal players at fancy fig
ures.
