N can league race so far has been
Il one where the reverse English
has been the rule. Several Of the teams
which, were figured as sure tail end
ers have been cumming up things in
an uncanny way by walloping every
thing and everybody in sight and Civ
Ting themselves the appearances OF

as semi-finaIists have been groggy
from the start
But it seems 20 US that another
month will find conditions normal
again; VIII see the spring flowers
faded and the long-bloOm plants IN

In our opinion. the Indians have snot

the team, as a whole, is weak hit

And that's what has happened TO

Fmust slip gradually down the chutes

''Beck's" Amen Corner

RILLY PAPKE, One-time middle
weight champion, IS back IN the
game. He is fighting around New
York but is not getting very good
bouts and It is evident that the
"Thunierbolt" has lost his bolt for
he is lucky to get draws with IN
known youngsters these days.
PENNY LEONARD and Johnny
Dundee are to meet IN a ten
round bout in New York city to-
night. Harry Pollock, manager of
Freddie Welsh, has promised that If
Leonard wins, he viii give him a
match with Welsh for a side bet of
$4,000. And with something at
stake, it's a safe bet that the cham
piOn viii work harder than he usu-
ally does.
FRANK MORAN and Jack Dillon
have practically signed up for a
ten-Tound no-decision bout at
Brooklyn park for June %. Moran
is to get $4,000 with the option of
taking 40 percent of the gate, while
Dillon IS guaranteed $4,000 with 4

the boxing bouts in New York are
held more for the benefit of the pugs
than for the fans.

the Giants last season. 1t seems to
have become a habit with him. for

day IN the first game of a series at

RARNEY OLDFIELD is certainly
trying to wind up his racing
career in a blaze of glory. He estab-
hshed a record for the indianapolis
speedway on Sunday, May %. and.
last Sunday, he circled the two-mile
Chicago speedway in his old Christie
at the rate Of 1928 miles per hour.

get the A. A A. to permit him to use

SAMMY BEER pitched one inning
OF the 1s-inning game between

as the only run of the game was put

1917 OUTLOOK.
Princeton Will Lose Ten First String
 -- Men.

Already there is a loud moan as to the "losses'' which Yale, Princeton and Harvard will sustain through gradu- ationS. The moan from Princeton is the loudest and most lugubrious The Orange and Black loses ten first string men, it seems. On the results of the season this should not seem such a tragic loss.
 Rush will be retained. I hope so. De- strong veteran" material his team lost to both of the traditional rivals of Princeton, they still have faith in the ability of Rush to come back. He is not only a good football coach, but a good sportsman, and his influence at Princeton is good. The interest in the football season to come would be killed to a great extent if anybody were to replace John Harlan Rush at Princeton.
 There has not been a peep from grad or undergrad, despite considera- ble harsh criticism. If you think that there is nothing strange about that you should see some of the letters from grads and undergrads of other colleges.
 The football bug is intensely par tisan Sometimes he wants to sIay you merely for recording that his col- lege was beaten. If you hazard an
 tpinion before game that his co : lege might not win he sends yoU a Black Hand letter and maybe a bomb.
 But the Princetonian does not yelp under defeat or criticism.

Twcnty-eight members of the 1916 Penn football team were awarded their varsity letters at the regular monthly meeting of the board of di- rectors of the Athletic Association. The board was generous with the letters curing the "P" insignia being larger than in recent years. Sixteen men who were awarded their letters re- ceived them for the first time, while the rema ming twelve had already won letter in football.
 The men who were awarded their letters for the second or third time were Captain Neil Mathews, Kem Urquhart, Howard Berry, Henry Mill Ter Ludlow Wray, Bert Bell. William Robinson, Graves Williams. hCarles Henning. Ben Derr, William Cloth fer, William Quigley and Harry Ross. The men who won their varsity insig- tresvaag, Lewis Little. James Bryant, Berg. Raymond Young, Wagoner. Alex Wray, Rafette, "Hobey'' Light, James Wharton, Jones, Albert Crane, John Titzel, Swan and Mamie" Wirkman.
 All of these men will have vote for the next football captain and this election vii take place the early part Ito hold the election on the return of the >~am from Pasadena, but Captain Mathews is desirous that the new leader be chosen as soon as possible in order that he may get together with the new Football Committee in regard Ito the schedule for next season.

PLAYER GRAY DECLARED A FREE AGENT
National Baseball Commission Hand
 ed Down Decision.

Cincinnati, Dec 6-Player w. F. Gray, drafted last September by the Chicago American League club from the Wichita club of the Western League. was today declared free agent by the Baseball Commission, unless he signed with the Chicago club since being drafted.
 Gray claims to be free agent be- cause of the fact that when the Wichita club was turned over to the Western League owing to alleged fi- nancial difficulties. his salary was un- paid to the extent of s15732 The commission ruled that inasmuch as this money had not been paid, the player had the perogative of either playing with the team under promise of being paid back salary at a later date. or of refusing to play. The play CT refused to play and claimed that by so doing he automatically became a free agent when his back salary was not paid within reasonable length of time.
 The claim of Player Walter Keat- ing for $1.o00 from the Chicago Ma tional League club was disal1owed. Keatfng was transferred to the St Joseph's club and finished the season with Syracuse. He claimed the diff ference in salary between his Chicago contract and the amount paid him in St. Joseph and Syracuse.
