RABBIT BRINGS
RAY OF HOPE
TO LAFAYETTE

Easton, Penn, Oct 27.-Just as the
last practice for the Lebanon Valley
game was finished on March Field to-
night, a little rabbit ran out from the
bushes ut the south end Of the field
and, capering across the various yard
lines Of the gridiron, turned shortly
and ran under the stands on Lafay-
cites side Of the field. The players re-
garded it as an omen Of change Of luck
in the 1915 season, Lafayette having so
far failed TO score a victory.
The final drill this afternoon was de-
voted 10 the signals for all the plays
that will be used. The practice was
concluded by work on kickoff plays.
Coach Crowells varsity line was
changed so many times in the course
OF the afternoon that IL was impossible
to state just who will start the Lebanon
Valley game.

Just such cases as those outlined
above have put the profession in bad
repute through the sticks. The small
town fans expect something unusual
from the stars of the big leagues.
These stars usually disappoint in the
fall as they disappoint in the spring.
Generally they abb their shortcomings.
The old standby excuse is that they
cannot afford TO take chances on prec
ious life and limb because the ball
parks are not of major league excel
lence.
In connection with this tempest in a
teapot over the burning question Of
transforming. It Is interesting to note
that Fraternity President David L.
Fultz has switched his guns to J. j..
Lannin, president of the Boston Red
Sox. The Fraternity chief declares
that Mr. Lannin gave his players per
mission to engage the Colonials at New
Haven, but afterward changed his mind
and withdrew sanction. 1t was then
too late, il is held, for the players to
cancel the game.
This allegation Lannin denies. He
declares he knew nothing whatever of
the proposed game in New Haven.
But he insinuated that If his players
had sought permission to play he
would have granted It. Lannin eX-
cuses the offences Of his worlds
champions by pointing to the delin-
quencies OF Ty Cobb, Iris Speaker, Hal
Chase and the Giants, so far as post
season games are concerned.
Meanwhile Robert Mercy, former
private secretary to Ban Johnson, and
now an official Of the Cleveland Amer
leans, has let out loud squawk against
his former chief. Mercy says Speaker
and other Indian players received per-
mission TO banstorm and therefore
should be immune from whatever wrath
the boss of the American League may
feel like piling upon real offenders.
The Chamber Of Commerce, OF
Natchez. Miss, is making a canvass OF
all sixteen major league clubs IN an
effort 70 attract one or more teams to
its hospitable bosom next spring. A
major league diamond with every
training convenience, is promised IN
the bid for patronage.

Threats and Promises

There followed much heated CONVEX
sation. threats and promises. and then
the Show Corporation set the last day
of October as the time when Moha
and Weinert should settle their differ
ences-but Weinert and Little Bob did
not get their fingers on the forfeit
money-they couldn't even hear the
rustic Of Uncle Sans patent paper.
More than q week ago Patsy Gala
han, manager for Moha. scratched his
signature to the new set OF articles
drawn up, and last Tuesday Dan Nc
Kettrick. acting for Harry Pollok and
Weinert. did the same thing. Weinert
and Moha kept on training. their SPAR
ring partners ate three Squares" a
dav and everything looked lovely.
The scene changed suddenly and
ominously. Commissioner Wenck was
drawing his trusty safety razor over
his cheek yesterday afternoon in his
private room in the Offices of the State
Athletic Commission, at Al Park Row,
when the telephone gave fdgety ring.
"Who is it?" sputtered Wenck
through the lather.
This is Jimmy, Commish-Jimmy
Johnston, you know" said the voice at
the other end. 81 just desire to say
that the Show Corporation has called
off the Moha-W einert party at the Gar
den. Don't know what the reason is.

Weinert Bout

Following the announcement yester-
day Of the Show Corporation, lessees of
the Madison Square Garden fight club,
that the proposed ten-round bout be-
tween Bob Moha and Charley Weinert,
the heavyweights. was definitely of,
Fred A. Wenck, chairman Of the State
Athletic Commission. stated that he
would call a meeting next Tuesday and
recommend to the other members Of
the commission that the club be sus-
pended for en- indefinite period and
be fined an additional $500 because Of
the failure to hold the bout. If the
Show CORPORATION fails TO pay the box
ers $500 it's license will be forfeited.

this month. The corporation owning
the big building is in the hands OF a
receiver. and before the first date set
for the bout ii was announced that the
fight would be postponed until Octo-
Der 81, next Tuesday.
The Boxing Commission then ruled
that the Show Corporation would have
10 pay Weinert and Moha $3.50 each,

articles originally drawn W, the fight
ers being ready and willing to 20 on
at the time set.
