Ed Helm, the well-known Cleveland
billiardist, has started a campaign for
the next match for the three-cusbion
title to be staged in the Ohio city. The
present title holder, George Moore. Is
next scheduled to meet Charles McCourt.
early in February, and it is for this
match that Helm Is now bending every
effort.

has proven quite a tickle thing during

into possession OF 1t by defeating John

match. Huey then turns right around
and takes the honor away from Moore
Along comes Alfred De Orc and whales

Considerable comment has been stirred
up around dear old Pittsburgh through
the statement appearing In local papers
claiming that the Royals established a
worlds record in shooting a set of 1.7s.
Looking over some Of the Pittsburgh
exchanges We see where teams have shot
such sets as 2,176. 1859, and 1855, and that
II Is not an uncommon thing for some
pinner to turn in a set that goes beyond
500. We don't deny that those are some
totals. but 1t must be remembered that
the Smoky City bowlers are shooting at
the rubber-bellied pins and not the all
wood style as used in the National Capt.
tai
While 1t is pretty hard to say Just what
totals would be pulled by local shooters
should the rubber min ba nut NJ, looa,

chances are that the scores would equal,

Northern stars.
Rubber pins were given a tryout here
and the scores posted by those who tried
the pins were Just as high as those being
shot in Pittsburgh. For some reason or

DON'T FOOL With
THE GAME LAWS
Legislation Should Be Left in Hands
Of Those Who Know and Who Cow
ern from a National Standpoint.
BY PETER p. CARNEY,
Editor Of National Sports Syndicais.

There is a movement on foot in some
portions Of the country to pass laws pro-
hibiting the feeding or batting of wild
duck, but 1t would be far. better for the
duck shooters in this country if there
were law passed making it obligatory
upon each one to do his proportion OF
the feeding.
The difference between good and bad
seasons for wild fowl in this country
depends much more upon the favorable
or unfavorable conditions afforded for
feeding grounds and ioafng grounds than
on any change in the numbers of birds
from season to season.
We can state without fear of contra
dictton, that Northern and Central Mex
leo in the winter season afford the great
est rendezvous for migratory ducks in the
world today, and the greater percentage
Of these birds pass in flight over some
portion Of the United States on their way
South In the fall. 1t would be well
If all legislation Of this kind could be left
in the hands Of the department that has
so capably handled the migratory bird
law, rather than to have localsms in
jected by committees whose horizon on
this subject seems to be very much more
limited.

SEVENTH AUSTRALIAN
BOXER ARRIVES HERE
Le. Darcy Has Given Te. Rickard
First Call on Services.

New York, Dec B.-Les Darcy s the
seventh Australian boxer OF note TO come
to this country and he promises to be
larger money winner than any Of his pre-
decessors, including Peter Jackson. Bob
Fitzstmmons Jim Hail. Young Grifo.
Joe Goddard and Bill Squires.
It is practically settled ehat Darcy's
FIRST bout Will be with Georges carpen-
tier, the French champion, n the go can
be arranged. Tex Rickard, who has first
call on Darcy's services, has Carpenter
agreement to come TO the United States

furlough. Failing that there are dozen
candidates for a Darcy bout In the field.
IT want TO start with the big thing
the Carpenter match," said Rickard. as
Darcy sat blinking out through the win
dow at the white lights" "Of course,
there is the Gibbons match In reserve,
but Gibbons has been mixed with 90
many bouts that had q queer look that
would rather not have him"
Darcy nodded and grinned agreement
as Ricksrd indicated his preference for
the Carpenter match. Darcy arrived in
New York on Saturday last and was
amazed and apparently distressed when
he learned that one Jack Kearns, a San
Francisco promoter, had sold an interest
In him to Tom Jones and Jack Curley, OF
the Wnlard-Curley-Jones syndicate.
Yes, know Kearns," said Darcy. He
sent me blank contract to Australia,
but I never signed with him. / am not
tied up witht anybody on this trip. Mr.
oSullivan is my manager and we will
take care of ourselves. A lot OF people
tried to get me to sign contracts before ]
left Australia"
Curley and Kearns announced that
they would start suit against Darcy az
soon as possible. That's pure blum, -
said Rickard. They tried to get hold
OF Darcy and they couldn't They are
hard losers. Curley has annoyed me
considerably, but 1t hasn't got him very
much, has II?
Some Of the same people claim tc
have an interest in Carpenter. Well.
hope that they will all be down at the
dock when the French champion gets
here' too. They will meet the same ex.

NO RELIEF IS Seen
FROM new Committee
Locals Have but Little Hopes of Inyes-
tsadns Committee Helping
Athletics Here.

Right on the heels of the announcement
that George ]. Turner. Of Baltimore.
president OF the A. A. U, has appointed
q committee to investigate the troubles
in the ranks of the South Atlantic Anna
teur Athletic Union comes more trouble
for this committee If the Carroll Insti-
tute long-distance running team would
push the S. A. A. U. championship COM
mittee.
In the appointing Of the committee to
investigate the trouble in this section.
President Turner made one wise selec-
ton, that of appointing DIR. William
Burdick. William Prody, of Boston, who
Is appointed along with Herman Obertub-
besing. of New York, on this committee
has often visited this section and knows
little of the trouble that makes the
game slack in this city.
Not much Is looked forward to in the
boosting of the game in this city as the
A A. U. has taken up this trouble too
late.
Dr. William Burdick is well posted on
the troubles in this section and could
help put Washington back on the ath-
leIlC map Ine lOCdl aInl6IeS are 10 Dc
given any consideration by this commit
tee.
Carroll Institute has a big kick coming
on the ruling of the Baltimore officials
in reference to the cross-country cham
pionship. The rules of the A. A. U. state
that a thirty-day notice must be given
all athletes in the different sections be-
fore a championship can be held. but this
thirty-day notice was not handed out by
the championship committee in this race
as only twelve days notice was an
nounced.
Although Carroll Institute had hopes OF
the cross-country championships being
held here they were not disappointed in
the announcement Of 1t being run on In
Baltimore, as Baltimore controls the
game In this section and handles It with
an iron hand. Manager Johnny Irving,
of the Tenth Street Institute team, when
informed that the games would be held
on New Years Day in Baltimore asked
Chairman H. NJ. Frank. of the committee,
for a two weeks postponement but re-
ceived an answer In the form Of dozen
or more entry blanks.
Washington has always been the under
dog in the South Atlantic A. A U. and
no encouragement or inducements are
ever offered the local athletes or follow
ers Of the game. Washington men are
never asked to be officials In any Balt-
more athletic event, but the local pro-
moters are always courteous enough to
invite the Baltimore officials to oficiate
In local games.
Carroll Institute will not protest this
race and will send in the entries of eight
athletes, but Manager Irving stated last
night that he did not believe over a trio
would be in shape to enter. let alone
finish.
1t is the same old story of Baltimore
forcing the issue in the South Atlantic
world, even IL they must break rules of
the A. A. u. and little confidence can
be given this investigation committee un-
less a trip is made to this city and the
matter taken up with offended parties
here.

RED SOX TWIRLER To
QUIT GAME-RUMOR
George Foster. Hero of World Series,
Going Back to Missouri Ozarks.
P.B "a Co.

Boston. Decs S.-LsttIe George Foster
gisnt-hearted twirlsr of the champion
Red Sox, hero Of one big worlds series
and the gamest boxman that ever toed
the rubber at Fenwsy Park, will pitch

Champion outfits may come and go IN
Boston, the leagues heaviest stIckers,
perhaps, may still continue to pay tribute
to the wonderful effectiveness Of a stsff
that has stecred the way 20 three world

remembered form OF bOsIon's Lite

Foster is hereafter content to pass hit
days among the sleepy Ozarks. In the
days to come, through the medium Of the
box scores only will he follow the for
tunes Of his teammates in the heated
struggles Of the seasons campaign
Fosters record may be summed up
succintly as follows:
Joined the Boston Red SoxO the
spring OF 1913.
Became the first one of the teams
winning twirlers.
In 1913 ranked rather low 70 the tw1rltng
percentages. an average OF aB runs per
game being scored on him He won four
games here and lost the same number.
an injury to his knee sending him home
long before the campaign closed
The following year he won fourteen out
OF twenty-five games pitched and kspt
opposing teams from scoring on him for
forty-odd innings consecUtively.
In 1915 he pitched twenty-nine games
during the regular season and won
twenty.
During the first part Of the season rust
fini shed he was one Of the clubs main
stays in the box His arm failed him
toward the close. however. and that II
the reason he is credited with but four
teen victories and eight defeats
In his four years OF slab work for the
Red Sox he has twirled his team to VIC
tory just ffty-two times, while leading
them to but twenty-nine defeats.
Has pitched in two world series. wfn-
ding his two games against the ouslIers
In 1915. He finished up a game that had
been previously lost by another pitcher
to the Brooklyn club last October.
With Manager Carrigan receiving, he
achieved his great no-hit record against
the New York Highlanders at Fenway
Park last June. II was one OF the clean
est no-hit performances ever recorded.
