porous boxing seasons in its history
before it, the Olympia A. A. will open
its doors for the 1919-20 iistic cam
paign this evening.
Conditions are much changed since
the Olympia opened its 191S-19 sea
son. Boxing never enjoyed such popu-
larity, and it is certainty that the
game will not suffer during the season
just opening.
1t is up to the promoters to uncover
| some new talent. For the past three
years virtually the same faces have
been occupying the leading places on
the programs. The fans like to see
new entertainers. and more Quaker City
headliners must be developed if the
game is to retain its popularity in this
! city.

and Blasts Hopes of Tex

DOBSON BEATS NARBERTH.

The fond hope Of large throng of
Philadelphia Textile rooters were shat
tered Saturday when Stenton easily
won the game that decided the cham
pionship of the second half of the
Philadelphia Suburban League. The
score was to 0. Powell, who was
on the mound for Stenton, was inyin-
chile. Ns
Textile managed to get three hits,
only one man reaching second base.
But twenty eight batsmen faced Powell.
three double plays cutting off the rum
ners who managed to reach first base.
Stenton scored its two runs in the
first inning, Rodgers and Morton get
ting the runs on two base blows. The
victory gave Stenton the championship,
inasmuch as they had already run the
first half.
Had Textile been returned the win
ners it would have been necessary to
play series.
Bert Yeabsley's Texas Lacquer in the
fourth inning. which scored Pres
Cruthers, produced the only run In
the crucial contest between j. & j.
Dobson and Narberth for the second
half pennant of the Main Line League.
More than 5000 fans witnessed the Fray
which gave Dobson the privilege OF
meeting Lansdowne for the champion
ship, the first game of which will be
played next Saturday.
The bottom has dropped out of the
Montgomery County Baseball League.
Souderton victory by 6 to l over ANT
bier assures that team of the pennant.
The leaders have two game lead and
the season closes Saturday, September

Stauffer, who has pitched sensational
ball all season, was on the mound and
had little difficulty in winning as Sou
derton gave him big lead by scoring
six runs in the second.
In the first game 1.-the series for the
championship of the Delaware County
Suburban League, Media defeated Nor

EASTERN LEAGUE
IS REORGAN|zED
De Neri, AII-Americans, Read
ing, Trenton, Camden and
Allentown in Circuit
SCHEFFER REELECTED HEAD

After lapse of a year aud a half,
due to the war, the Eastern Basketball
League has been completely reorganized
and is ready to start theseason the first
week of November with the following
circuit: De Neri and All Americans,
representing Philadelphia, Trenton,
Reading. Camden and Allentown.
The latter is a newcomer in the ranks
| of major league basketball, purchasing
the franchise of the Jasper Club. The
upstaters were not in the organization
very long before they made deal which
changed the complexion of several teams
and reminded one of the kind of trades
engineered in the old central league.
| Harry Hough, as manager, traded to
Camden three sterling artists such as
Marty Friedman, Barney Sedran and
Dave Kerr for flock of athletes. chief
of whom was James Brown, premier
basketball player of the cage universe.
| The latter was secured by Frank Poth
/ in exchange for Tom Barlo and Brown
already has signed his contract to play
in Philly.
Kennedy to Camden.
As forecasted in these columns last
Saturday Bill Kennedy went to manage
Camden. The lean leader of the Jewels
said he and Mcssrs. Patterson and Lin
ton had exhausted every means to secure
hall uptown.
1t was agreed that each club limit
itself to eight players and lists were
turned in which mean absolutely
nothing. OF the players contracts
registered with President Scheffer, the
most important was that of Oscar Grim
stad. The big fellow has placed his
name to a contract rendered by Frank
Poth. He is undoubtedly one of the
best pivot men that ever pranced up
and down the wooden alleys.
Oscar saw wonderful service with the
old Utica team and has been cavort :
ing in the vicinity of the Pennsylvania
State League for the last two seasons.
Poth also has "Chief" Muller's con =.
tract in Scheffer's hands and he is one
of the best shots in the game today,
regardless of his many years of service.
Scheffer Re. elected
Once again was William J. Scheffer
returned to the Office of president, sec =
retary treasurer. On motion of Frank
Poth it was unanimously passed that
the official should receive a stipulated
salary. Scheffer registered strenuous
objections but was overruled. ..
Although nothing was done in regard
to the matter, it is understood that the
season will consist of two halves and
that the player fouled will shoot his
own toss.
Another meeting will be called fol-
some evening in the near future, as
there is considerable business yet tc
transact,
