Brooklyn Boy, Veteran OF
Many Defeats, oses
Again in Olympia Wind-
Up
KID BROWN IN DRAW
By JAMES S. CAROLAN

l
IDDIE WALLACE, veteran receiver.
L can boast of more defeats virtually
| than any supposed top-notcher that has
exhibited here in many seasons. This
veteran son OF swat. whose face, jaw
and body apparently are made OF rub
| ber, had more than one punch bounced
off those exposed portions last night.
Benny Valger, the fiashy Frenchman.
| peppered the willing Wallace willingly
for six rounds. He won without protest.
This was in the wind-up at the Olympia
| A. A.
Wallace has met all the champions
among the small ones during his time.
| and vet has to gain a decision. He has
| engaged headliners and boxers quite re-
mote from the top but Eddie Is like the
| Athletics and favors the bottom. ne

count Leonard gave Wallace an awful
heating in six rounds here and only
Leonard's generosity permitted him 10

Lew Tender pounded him severely ou
could not land the knockout punch,
Wallace had too much speed and usec
the ring well.
| He never was in danger Of taking the
count last night. After tasting or
punches from the best in the game.
Valger's jabs only served to sting and
cut, but the knockout was not there.
Eddie's left eye caught many hooks
and went out in the fifth round.
| In the fourth round Wallace butted
valger over the right eye and the blood
flowed freely from the damaged orb.
Valger was far too clever for the
veteran.
Kid Brown Draws
The best fight of the night was the
speedy six round draw between Harry
Kid Brown, the high school boy, and
Phil Franchini. of New York. These
lads gave a clever exhibition all the
way. The defensive work was high
class, while neither failed to attack the
moment the other neglected to cover.
Joe Rivers, modelled along the Willie
Meehan lines, used Meehan tactics to
defeat Joe Geiger. Rivers stopped many
blows with his stomach ana Jaw. but
Geiger's punches seemed to bounce
harmlessly away.
In the other bouts Denny Whalen
stopped Patsy Greene in the fifth and
Frankie Kline forced Marty Williams to
quit in the fourth.
Johnny Burns, the king Of Kensing-
ton and president of the Cambria A. c.,
was a spectator. Johnny has Gussis
Lewis under his wing and says he is
anxious to match him against either
Valger or Wallace.
Gussie has included the light light
weights in his list of eligible battlers
His next opponent will be Tommy
Tuohey, the sorrel-topped veteran from
New Jersey. They meet at the Cambria
Friday night Tuohey is a crafty vet
eran and one certain to force Lewis to
show class to win. If Lewis wins deci-
sively over Tuohey. Manager Burns
plans to send him after bigger game.

Mayer fell off for time, but Demaree
came through.
twenty-five Years in Game
Manager Moran is a veteran in tn,
~ame, having been a catcher in profess
slonal baseball for something like twen-
ty-fve years. His first professional en-
gagement was with the Lyons Club, of
the New York State League. and he sub
sequently was the regular catcher for
the Boston Nationals and the Chicago
Cubs. Thu Phillies got him from Chi.
cago in 1911.
When the Federal League was
launched Moran was one of the first to
receive an offer, the Pittsburgh Club
wanting him to manage the team. but
he refused to leave the Phillies. That
he has several useful baseball years
ahead of him is shown by the fact that
Moran is only forty-one years old

and will not be able to return until
after the first of the new year. #
Morgan, however, has decided to hold
the coaching post open for him, and
he will be doing the tutoring by the
time the intercollegiate season gets
started. In the meantime, some former
Penn player will be asked to take charge
of the squad. 1t is likely that DR.. John
j. Keogh, the scrub football coach, will
be requested to volunteer his services
One of the things which was de-
cided definitely at the league meeting
was that the eligibility rules, which
governed the organization last season.
would remain in force. This means the
continuance of the freshman rule and
the four-year law. This, however. will
have no serious effect on Penn, as the
men who are counted upon to form the
varsity are all eligible under the pres
ent rules The only prospective candi-
date who is eliminated is Bud Hopper,
the star football end, who is in his first
year at the University

Basketball Trophy With
dra,On During Short In

Open January III
PENN STARTS JANUARY 4
By EDWIN ]. POLLOCK


TNHE intercollegiate Basketball League
i season will get under way on jan
uary II, accord hg to anannouncement
made by Ralph Morgan, the secretary
treasurer of the organization, yester-
day. The usual championship will be
at stake, but there will be no cup offered
to the winner
The cage solons came to an agree
ment at a meeting held in New York
Saturday night 1t was decided that on
account of the limited finances on hand
o-d tho uncertain conditions existing at
the various colleges due to the war a
,Nedule han usual would be
arranged and trips cut to a minimum.
Every college included in the circuit
was represented at the meeting, but none
Of the men was able to give an accurate
statement concerning the possibility Of
the game at their alma matters This
is due to the fact that under the re-
arrangement of affairs at the institu-
tions necessitated by the change from
| he students army training corps to the
normal peace conditions it is impos-
s'hle to ascertain the prospective
strength of the quintets.
Meeting December q
With the uncertainty of things in
mind, the delegates wisely decided to
delay the framing of the schedule until
later. Within a short time they will re-
port to Secretary Morgan the condi-
tions that exist as they see them and
the secretary then will frame a schedule
which he will present for ratification at
| a meeting which has been called for
December 21 in New York.
Pennsylvania will play at home and
away games with Princeton, Columbia,
Yale and possibly Cornell. In this man.
ner it is likely that the Red and Blue
will play eight of the usual ten
| games. Cornell will not be able to con-
| test in as many games owing to the
fact that the Ithacans have to travel
such a long dNtance for competition
against rival league team.
With such condition it was thought
unfair to place the intercollegiate cup at
stake. Several of the teams, including
Pennsylvania. have two legs on the
trophy and a third leg would mean
permanent possession. Although the
! cup will not be offered, the champion.
ship will b" awarded as usual.
1t is likely that practice at Penn
will start within the next two weeks
| Ralph Morgan, who is also chairman
Of the basketball committee at the Uni.
versity. will book the first game Of the
Quak"r season for January 4.
Jourdet Will Return
The main reason for the delay al
Penn is that the Quakers are without
coach. Lon Jourdet, who had charge
of the cage squad last year, and brought
Ethe team into the championship, Is
working with Du Points at Pennsgrove
