Merchants War on Dirt.

An effort is being made by the Chest
nut Street Business Mems association
Of Philadelphia to have the city au-
thorities keep Chestnut street free
from dust and dirt.
In order to cooperate in this task
some of the members Of the associa-
ton, according to George Albert Dro-
vim, tho secretary, have issued instruc.
tions that all store swcepings as well
as those from the sidewalks are to be
gathered up each day and placed in
receptacles in the rear Of tho building.
A pamphlet recently issued by the
association to It's members sets forth
the following pertinent statements:
"The more dirt the fewer dollars to
the merchants.
Dirt and dust mean time spent each
day In cleaning stock and fixtures, and
time costs money.
"Dirt and dust In some lines cause
deterioration and loss on merchandise.
"Pull together with the rest of us
and help keep the street clean"

The Smothering of SYRIA
cuse by Pittsburgh
Great Surprise

Eastern varsity football teams came
through the weekend games without
serious form upsets, but there were
several contests in which the final
scores demonstrated strength or weak
ness not heretofore suspected Of the
victors or vanquished. The results of
Saturdays play brought about a sharp
division between those elevens which
romped through weak opponents with
out the necessity of showing more than
mediocre offence and defence and the
teams which were forced TO fight for
every yard gained or defended.
In the former group Harvard. Prince
ton. Army, Colgate and Brown were
outstanding examples, while Cornell,
Pennsylvania, Georgetown, Navy, Union
and Tufts, although victorious, found
their rivals too formidable for slack
ness of play even in the closing min
utes of the games.
Probably the most surprising feature
Of the days play was the overwhelmin
defeat Of Syracuse by the University of
Pittsburgh. The two combinations were
thought to be very evenly matched be-
fore the game, and far above the ordi-
nary in both ability and coaching. APP
parcntly, however, the Syracuse team
had sacrificed speed for weight, and
was wellnigh helpless before the sprint
but perfect football machine.
Folwell Scores Success
Pennsylvania also rose to unexpected
heights in defeating Penn State in a
game in which the Quakers always held
the upper hand and played football that
reflected great credit upon the coaching
system installed this fall by Bob Fol-
we'll. The addition Of Howard Berry,
the all-around athlete, fresh from his
severe training in the military camp on
the Mexican border, was a decided fac
tor IN the victory, but the eleven as
whole showed that Pennsylvania is
again approaching the powerful type Of
team that made the Red and Blue
feared in past yesrs.
Both Cornell and tho Navy gave ex-
hibitions OF gamencss and strength
against opponents which for a time
threatened to wrest victory from the
home teams. Neither eleven showed
anything remarkable In the way Of
either attack or defence for this period
Of the season, but their general spirit
and steadiness under n strong attack
promises much for the future.

PLANS GREATEST
FIGHT CARNIVAL
YET ON RECORD
Baron Long Is After Three
Championship Bouts at
Tia Juana
By BRIGGS

The greatest fight tournament, no
excepting the one held in New Orleans
at the time when John L. Sullivan los
the heavyweight title. is planned To-
Tia Juana, Mexico. The promoters are
Baron Long and James Coffroth. the
former boxing promoter Of San Fran
cisco. They are now operating the Tia
Juana racetrack.
The bouts planned are:
Willard and Weinert. for the heavy
weight championship.
Welsh and White. for the lightweight
championship.
Ertle and Williams. for the bantam
weight championship.
The scheme is TO stage the three
bouts on successive days. between
Christmas and New Years Day. Ne.
gotiations for some OF the fighters have
already proved successful. Welsh
White. Weinert and Williams are said
to be as willing as Barkis. Ertle, the
promoters feel. will listen to reason II
it comes in the form of dollars and
cents.
The only stumbling block in the way
Of the worlds greatest fistic carnival
seems TO be the cumbersomely coy Jess
Willard. the heavyweight champion
Harry Pollok, who has tentatively
agreed that Weinert and Welsh shall
participate in the carnival. says pa
thetically: 81 will leave it to the i'm
agination Of the reader what Jack Cur
ley will want for the services Of Big
Jess"
In this regard Pollok has some rea-
son for sadness. IL will take consider
able coaxing to get Willard into the
ring at Tia Juana or anywhere else
The big fellow is now the possessor
of a Kansas million, and he has no
particular love for the work Of getting
himself into condition.
As the bouts will be held on Mexi-
can soil. The promoters announce that
they will all be finish fights. Such a
programme would settle once and Cor
all the status of Nc bantamweigh,
title. As for the lightweight and the
heavyweight title. there is some differ
ence of opinion as to whether Weinert
is the most logical" contender for
willard and White the most logical
for Welsh.
According to n wire received by
Harry Pollok from Baron Long. the
California nobleman is now negotiat-
ing for Willard. He has appointed Pol
lok as his representative to clinch the
Ertle- W illiams match.
II begins to look as though this
might be arranged. for Manager Nc
Nulty, speaking for Ertle. has Just an
nounced that Ertle Is anxious for a
return 20. Up TO now Ertle has been
particularly coy on this point
