GEORGIA TECH-PENN
CONTEST ABANDONED

Philadelphia. Nov. H.-From a
statement given out yesterday by Mai.
Pickering, graduate manager of ath-
letics at the University of Pennsyl-
vania, 1t appears certain that another
football game between the Red and
Blue and Georgia Tech will not be
scheduled this season. This announce
ment is a decided disappointment to
the football fans Of the East as well
as the Penn student body, for a sec
end contest between the two elevens
would be warmly welcomed by all
lovers of the gridiron sport.
Georgia Tech displayed a wonder
fully formidable team against Penn
sylvania, and the Red and Blue team
was swamped, l-to-0. Thereafter the
Quaker eleven worked a will to
master the fine points Of the game
Their splendid battle against the
heralded Pitt machine inspired the
players to mighty efforts. The men
became imbued with wonderful
fighting spirit due to excellent coach
ing, and by defeating Dartmouth and
Michigan. two previously unbeaten
elevens. earned a place as one of
the strongest machines in the COL
legiate ranks.

LITTLE Pete HERMAN
CLASS OF BANTAMS
New Orleans Fighter Has Proven
Himself Best in Field of
Little Fellows.

Little Pete Herman, the New Or
leans bantam-weight, has proven
himself full-hedged champion
Since his defeat of frankie Burns,
the clever Jersey City veteran, In a
twenty-round battle in the Crescent
City, no one can dispute his claims
to the title, for he has established
himself firmly on the fistic map and
he stands out as the best bantam
weight in the business, Johnny Ertle
and Kid Williams Notwithstanding.
The most praiseworthy thing about
Herman's victory over Burns was the
the confidence to come back and de-
feat a man who once hung sleep
ticket" on his ''mush."
Burns, who, though aged in the
game, has beaten nearly all of the
good ones. knocked Herman out in
twelve rounds at one time and felt
confident that he could do it again.
And there Is an old belief among
boxers that one knockout Is as good
as q brick house falling on an op-
ponent, for few boxers who are
knocked out ever come back and de-

for the count.
Johnny Coulon, who was clever and
sturdy, and a great battler. was per
haps a more finished boxer than Her
man. Johnny Ertle appears to have
been more OF a flash in the pan than
anything else, and Herman ranks far
above him. Kid Williams was per-
haps a sturdier battler in his best
days than the New Orleans boy. but
it is what you are today that counts.
Herman has promised to give Ertle
a chance to take the bantam-weight
crown from him, but 1t is doubtful If
the match will be put on for some
time.
New York fight fans did not believe
Herman had the goods last spring.
He met Dutch Brandt, a tough trial
horse, and in ten rounds he gave
Brandt all he wanted, showing flashes
of form and then relaxing into the
uninteresting style that so many
boxers follow.
But since he has scored a decisive
comeback against Burns New York
is giving him all the credit and
awards him the palm, for Burns was
going such great guns when he lost
to Herman that New Workers were
forced to admit Peterkin is the class.

TENER OPPOSED TO
COMY'S MOVEMENT

New York. Nov. 21-The suggestion
made by Charley Comiskey, of the
worlds champion White Sox, that
next season the American League pool
their players and receipts so as to
evenly distribute strength and re-
sources, has aroused a storm of pro-
test. The suggestion will be strongly
opposed by the National League. ac-
cording to a statement made by Presi-
dent John K. Tener.
TT is not in harmony with the spirit
of baseball" said President Tener. IT
do not believe that the American
League intends taking any such ac-
tion. I am quite sure that the Ma
tional League club owners would not
even consider such a move. In the
first place, the satisfactory placing of
the star players would be a difficult
problem to decide; in fact, it seems
that it would be impossible to accom-
plish it in a way which would be salts
factory to all clubs"

WESTERN ASSOCIATION
WILL CLOSE ITS GATES

The Western Association, which
embraces Oklahoma City. Denison.
Sherman, tulsa, Paris, Fort Smith,
McAlester and Muskogee, has decided
to suspend operations, according to
President ]. w. Bell. The 10 per
cent war tax on admissions, also the
tax on railroad fares and sleeping car
berths. are said to be the principal
reasons. Some of the clubs not only
have failed to pay their assessments
but also have neglected to protect
their territorial rights and their re-
serve lists. 1t is believed that the
action of the Western Association
will pave the way for a general blow
ing up of the small circuits.

PROVIDENCE |S
 FUR DEFENDANT

A witness sent by Providence who had delegated Attorney George Purdy Bullard to receive him, appeared in the damage suit of Matthews against the Arizona Eastern and testified for the defense in the superior court yesterday afternoon. This action was brought to recover damages in large sum alleged by the plaintiff, former employe of the defendant, sustained when he fell into pit near the defendants round- house d year ago last April.
 The injury most complained Of was I dislocation of the hip. X-ray pie -ures of it had been taken, and though they did not disclose much of dis placement, physicians testified to the fact that they had found the bones of the hip displaced.

lowing the Ajo strike, which they dom
 mated and from which they went di- rect to Jerome and began assistance of the Federation agitator.
 Their success at Jerome this week is considered all the more notable by reason of the fact that an out and out divorce had occurred in the BlSbee district in the previous week between the l. w. W. element and the State Federation element, the crafts of the latter moving out of the hall of the Bisbee Federation local because they claimed the latter to be dominated by the l. w. w, and assailing the latter organization and the Western Fedora : tion local bitterly in newspaper attacks because of the threats alleged to have been made of intention to make trouble during war; time in violation of all of the precepts laid down by Samuel Gompers and other national heads of organized labor. However, while this
 was going on at Bisbee, the State Fed eration was being congratulated at Jerome because the Federation local and the I. w. w. contingent there had voted to affiliate with the State F'eder- ation. A much miXed-up situation is plainly evident
 The union vote as boiled at Jerome represented in it's total less than one sixth of the number of men employed in the district Its membership con- tains many men who have worked at nothing in the district except agitation, and of whose type there are several hundred scattered in the different cen | ters of population in the state. The
 issue in Jerome is confined to demand for the closed shop, the demand being for employment of union men only and the collection from these by the
 companies of the union dues All wage demands had been met prior to the strike vote. The idea of the agitators
 has been that the closed shop was the
 only issue they could go before all of ] the state with.

 Yesterday, at noon, Mir.

He was accordingly sub poenaed and he accompanied Dr. Broadway to the stand and performed that feat.

Unable to see the possibility of any good being accomplished at such meeting during the present critical time, Governor Campbell yesterday de- clined to call conference of mine operators and miners representatives in Arizona to discuss the question of the closed shop and the relations be- tween the employers ana employees, par ticulaTly during the present war.
 This decision was announced follow ing conference between John L. Don nelly, president of the Arizona State Federation of Labor and chairman ot the subcommittee on labor of the Council of Defense; w. P. Doheney, Jr, editor of the Arizona Labor Journal also was present
 If you really believe that such conference would accomplish anything of good: would result in anything ex- cept loss of time I will call it." Gov ernor Campbell declared to MT. Don nelly. The labor head confessed that he did not believe it would do any good
 The first request for such a con- ference to be held in Tucson was made by Mir Donnelly who admitted that the matter of wages was only secondary: that the big thing they wanted dis cussed and settled was that of the closed shop.
 With that as the announced object of the meeting. it was doubtful. the gov ernor told Mir. D0nneily whether the mine opera tors would come to the con- ference. The mine operators had so advised him, he said, and had sug- gested that any grievances their en- ployes might have be discussed be- tween the operators and any of their representatives not officers of d labor union,
 T think you are right admitted MT. Donneily. There could be nothing ac- compished at such a meeting. If they want to fight, we will give them the l best we have. My people at present are in no frame of mind to accept any compromises"
