that never should have been made.
II was slaughter pure and simple. the
game little Mooney only lasting the
route through bulldog courage and the
fact that Dundee took pity on him and
perceptibfy pulled his punches in the
closing rounds.
White and Tillman clashed in what
proved the banner bout Of the evening,
and at the end the honors were even.

the 1912 conflicts between the Giants
and the Red Sox. On that occasion
that quartet was not exactly what you
might call lucky for New York.
Rube MarQuard 10 authority for the
statement that Jack Coombs. his bunkie
on the Dodgers, has been offered the
management Of the Pittsburg club under
conditions. Barney Dreyfus. says Mar
guard. has decided to give Hugo Bezdek,
present leader Of the Pirates. the re-
fusal of another contract. Should Bez-
dek decline, and We have All inkling that
he will, the Job will go to Coombs.
There are various stories concerning
other managerships. Miller Huggins -

Yanks. With Branch Hickey running
tho Cards there Is no need for another
manager. Higgins should he able to

We were going over the chronicles OF

TAR or no war there isn't q col

not anxious to have q football

otherwise. Has 1t not been said and
proved ''by their football teams shall

Some confess such to be the primary
reason for their action. while others
attempt to cloud the issue with protes-
tations Of ultra patriotism, an analysis
OF which shows a great percentage Of
misguided zeal However, one college
seems to be sick Of the whole business

schedule and abolished intercollegiate
football because. take 1t from our old
friend the Hartford Coxro~f, II wants
to be unhindered when the new and
clean system OF intercollegiate athletics
comes after the war. Says the Couront. /.
'AThs decision does mean that Trinity
College, which has long stood high
among the other New England col
leges in the football world, has given
over the old football system with IT'S
various attending evils and high sal
aried coaches, so that II, after the war.
American colleges and universities are
to devise a new and better plan for
college athletics It will be in q posi-
tion to accept the new conditions with

again will be a Trinity eleven. We hear
