Richards Rough Assignment.

If Tex Rickard was merely an ordi- nary mortal, he would have disbanded his present plans before he started.
 But Rickard isn't, so the odds are that he will still beat the impossible. Rickard is now up against the fol- lowing:
 l.. A pack of fight promoters, jealous Of any outside talent or any further divisions of the graft, who have been trying to block him at every turn.
 ?. No one at present in sight for Carpenter except Willard and Darcy Willard, 100 pounds too big to even be considered for a 1S0-pound op- ponent, and Darcy, branded as a stacker by any man to whom duty means anything at all. Willard asks $50, 900 to take part in charity event against man over 100 pounds below the champions s weight. Which should end the argument both ways.

FARNUM IS BROWN CAPTAIN.
Football Players Re-elcct This Sea-
 sons Leader

Providence, R. ]. Dec. l4.-Mark Farnum of Georgiaville, R. l., was last night reelected captain of the Brown football team for next year. Farnum will be a senior next year. He enjoyed the distinction this year Of being the first junior to. ever lead the team. Other candidates were Mar shall, who played regularly this year at left end, and Jemail, the regular left halfback. It is understood that Jemail withdrew his name as a can didate at the meeting which was at tended by the eighteen letter men, and Marshall alone opposed Far mum.
 Browns captain played right guard on the eleven this year. although he began the season at right tackle. He played in all the games on the sched ule and his work especially in the Harvard and Yale game stood out prominently. Physically he is the biggest man on the squad, standing six feet two inches, and weighing 220 pounds. Farnum prepared for college at Dean Academy. where he made a reputation as a school boy athlete.

recover It came so unexpectedly that the seasoned club owners were at a loss to know just how to act when confronted by the situation. Mrs. Helene H. R. Britton, who sits in the leagues sessions as president Of the St Louis Cardinals, presented the league with a large box of chocolates.
 The National league magnates in the past have indulged in nearly every kind of refreshments under the sun, but this is the first time on record that they have ever munched chocO-, late cream drops The club owners handled the situation with great bravery and tact, and after the box had gone around a couple of dimes all the chocolates had disappeared. The league will hold anothor session this afternoon, during which tea will be served
 There are still numerous problems for the league to discuss before the meeting closes. The long-look ed for oration Of Barney Dreyfuss against the reappointment of August Her mann as chairman of the National Commission is due today, but the pearls of wisdom which will fall from the Pirate owners chiseled lips will go unappreciated by the world at large, for they will be delivered be- hind locked and guarded doors
 To Discuss Worlds Series
 Another subject which will be dis cussed is the proposed changes in the rules governing the worlds series. It is pretty certain, if the American league will agree, that the series will be extended to nine games and that all the players will share in the spells.
 The new players contract recently drawn up by the National Commission will come before the league for ap- proVal. It is sure to be adopted, al- though it is stated that it contains clauses which may bring forth pro- tests from the Players Fraternity One of these is said to stipulate that when major league player is sent back to the minors during the season he will have to accept the minor league salary and not the salary of the major league contract
 The topic of reducing salaries. the subject which most interests the players has not yet been touched upon. It is almost certain that a re- trenchment policy will be inaugurated by ali clubs on account of the high salaries many of the players have been receiving since the Federal league war

WILSON TO LEAD TIGERS
New Princeton Captain Comes from a Noted Family of Football Players Prepared at Exeter.

Princeton, N. J., Dec. 14.-Marion Orr Wilson of Binghamton, N Y, yesterday afternoon was elected cap- tain of the Princeton football team for the 1917 season. His election was rather anticipated in Princeton foot ball circles, as he is the only member of the present junior class who has been a regular member of the team all season. Although no definite statement was made following the election except the announcement of Wilson's election, it is said that there were two other men considered for the honor. Halsey, a giant lineman, who will also be a senior next year, and Funk, a sophomore, are the men reported to have been considered on the first ballot, which is more or less in the nature of a caucus. Wilson's election was unanimous on the first regular ballot.
 The new Tiger captain comes from family of football playrs. Alex Will son, the captain of the 1915 Yale team and Tom Wilson, who was member of Eddie Harts champion ship team in 1911, and Walter Camps choice for All-Amer1can guard, are his brothers. Tom Wilson was on the coaching StdI at FTlnCoCOn Ln1S fall.
 Wilson's position is end, and al- though he weighs only 155 pounds he easily earned himself a position on the Varsity this season by his aggressive playing. He prepared at Phillips Exeter academy, but never won his school letter in football. He played end on his freshman team at Prince ton and in his sophomore year was a strong contender or one of the wing positions on the Varsity. It was thought by many that he was too light for Varsity football, but he re- turned to Princeton this fall about ten pounds heavier and played in a fash ion which soon earned him a Var sty berth. Besides playing football Wilson is also a member of the track team, having gained his letter as a hurdler. He is 22 years of age and is feet 10 inches in height
 Dav1d McDougaI of Riverside, Ill.,, was elected assistant manager of the Princeton football tean for next year. McDouga1 will succeed Arrott as football manager.

James $. O'Sullivan, the crack dis tance runner of the Irish-American A. C., who has taken up his residence in this city, has consented to assist in the coaching and training of the ath- letes of St. Joseph's Y. M. A. A. The acquisition of such a noted star as MT.
