YANKEE BOXERS vS. BaTTISH AND FRENCH STARS AT LONDON FRIDAY; TED LEWIS AND PAL MOORE
 EXPECTED ID WIN FROM FOREIGN OPPONENTS

New York, Dec. 22.-On Friday night in Albert Hall, London, three Americans-Ktd Lewis, Pal Moore and Johnny Grifhths---will display the.I fistic wares respectively against Matt Wells of England, Charles LedouX and Francois Charles, both of France. On the same evening in far off Aus ,ralia, Eddie Wallace of Brooklyn will meet Lew Edwards, the AustraI- ian lightweight champion.
 Kid Lewis, though a naturalized American citizen, was born in the WhitechapeI district of London and formerly held the British feather weight championship. He came to this country as a lightweight, bu; grew into the weIterweight class. Ha won the welterweight title from Jack Britton on points, but later to have BrittOn regain the title by a knock cut. Lewis, though having gone back considerably in the last twelevmonths should find easy prey in Matt Wells The former British lightweight cham pton was whipped by second rate American boxers in his best days and the veteran long since passed the box ing crest. Lewis should have little difficulty in beating the oIdtimer.
 Over in EngIanE and France Charlie Ledoux is considered a bear. The Britons elevated him to the heights after his recent knockout of Je1n Driscou, despite the fact Jem long since seen his best days and at the height of his career would have made LedouN look like a novice.
 Ledoux while considered a first class little ring warrior on this side of the pond, is thought no wonder He came here to fight Kid Williams for the bantamweignt title in 1913 and was knocked out in the fifteen tn round. Ledoux was made a favorite over Pal Moore in London, but the little Yankee may make the Britons open their eyes.

ANSONIA MEETS
 EIBBOiv PLAYoR3
 TUESDAY NIGHT

Chief Muller, regarded as one of the best players in the game, will be with Ansonia- tomorrow night when the valley boys come to Colonial Hall to play the Blue Ribbons in an Interstate League basketball game. Muller is going fine this season and as the fans like to kid him they will undoubtedly be out in force tomor- row evening.
 Manager Jason Wright of Ansonia has built up a strong give and hopes to trounce the Ribbons. He has George Norman on the forward line and the basketball followers know that Norman is without a peer as a forward. Stretch Harvey, the old Ribbon center, will do the jumping for the visitors. WassmeS is play ing opposite Norman as forward and Jakey Fuller, the handsomest man in the league, is at guard.
 Malone who has been at center re- gently, will be back on the job for the Ribbons and Denhert will play forward with Reich. Eddie White who did brilliant work against the Jersey City team last week. will be on deck for the Ribbons. The game will start at 8:30 p, m. and will be followed by dancing.

Penn Wants Boxing
 Made Major Sport

Philadelphia, Dec 22-Boxing will be put over big at Pennsylvania this winter Cnach George Decker, the forDl@r c3eve.r lightweight, has the biggest sGIa2 5n years, and there is plenty of E2nd talent to pick from. . Major Pickering. graduate manager at PeRns is Lack of a movement to make bcying q recognized sport in Easta~T collegiate ranks, and when the rV4t:oanl Collegiate Association meets in New York, he will tell of the
 many advantages to be derived from the formation of such teams. Penn State, which sent a team to Penn last winter for a dual bcxng meet is backing Penn and t7-e Navy also is in line for the glove sport.
 Major Pick aring fs3 been one of Ehe pioneers ir thas ..22veraeDt and with pr. R. Tatt na acEza7@tz viii make as strong effort at the collegiate Ga aet- ing to hoat something definite Major Pickering, assisted by some other Penn officials and q few alumni from State COllere, drew up the rules for the tourney last winter and it is likely that these regulations will be offered for adoption by all the colleges. One of the latest sensations in .Decker's class is a lad from Wilzesbarre by the name of Jones. He is a light weight.

New Haven. Dec. 22-The propo- sit!on for the renewal of football re- Iat.ors between Yale and the Army has come to about what close follow
 CTS of the sport expected it would
 This is confirmed in the announce
 men, that Yale and West Virg mia
 will meet Oct 23, the date held open
 for some time at the request of the
 Army.
 When the Army asked to have Yale
 hold open this date it was done, not
 with any belief that the Army would send the eleven to New Haven for the game, as proposed, but solely be- cause of Yaie's respect and affection for Col. Robert G. Danford, the commandant of the Cadets at West Point, who sincerely wanted a renewal | of relations between the Military Academy, from which he graduated, and the university which he 50 ably prepared for the important part taken in artillery in the "-ar, and from which he received an honorary de- | gree.
 The proposition was that the Army should journey to New Haven on al | ternate years, with Yale going to ! West Point iu between. Yale held i open the date proposed. The an 1 nouncement that Annapolis would i break its home game rule and journey 1 up to Princeton silencsd the doubters ] that the Army would come down i here.
 I Then the Army football authorities | found that the schedule wouldn't per init the game, and Col Danford' s | wish didn't even wait for a ruling i from the War Department refusing g | permission to come to New Haven, 1 and 1t probably will be some time l before negotiations between the two l schools are again taken up. In taking on West Virginia. Yale | has strengthened the schedule ir
 much the same way Harvard has in
 taking on Centre College Tn fact | the Yale schedule is the hardest 1T
 many years.
 l All Yale men are glad that relations are resumed with Colgate, which the | Blue will meet Oct. 30. There was 2 1 misunderstanding which led 10 nc game last fall, for this game was al ways one Of the hardest fought and | cleanest on the schedule. The makins | of the schedules later than usual be. cause of the war resulted in no date being available for both, though Yale | tried to get a game.
 The Brown gar-a comes as Usua the week before the Princeton game 1 which next year happens to be Nov | with Princeton in the ''JungIe" Nov 13 and Harvard here Nov. 20. Tnci l dentally, unless all signs fail, the at tendance at the Harvard game will bt the largest in the history of the sport The Bowl will be enlarged and proh ably completed in the spring. Ger
 tatnIy temporary stands will be added

WILLIAMS COI
 S276 EACH FOR
 FOOTBALL YEAR

New Haven, Dec. 22.-The Will .iams football team donned their rIdiron toss for the last llme tlIs -eason yesterday afternoon at Pach's .,udio. where they sat for the group picture of the team.
 After the 5LOOJIng was over and Coach Baldridge held a meeting, and proceeded to divide the spells of the season. The smiling faces and a sud den desire to rush to their various abodes was caused by the jingling of $276.5O, in the pockets of each of the men.
 That was the amount they re ceived for their efforts during the past season, and it is estimated that it was the. largest ever registered in this city for seIni-p professional football players. At any rate it was a tidy sum but they earned it, for the Williams was a team this season that the peo- pie of New Haven can well be proud of.
 They played winning football throughout the fall, and best of all they played good, clean football which was largely due to the eff cient coaching of BaDbIidge. The for mer Yale star took the team in hand early in the season, and let it be known that he was in charge of the team, and that he wanted his orders carried out. They were too, and what the downtown team accom- plished will bear this out. Tenta- tive plans were made for next year after which the men disbursed. feel ing that they would repeat this seas on's wonderful performance again next year.

May Prevent Leonard
 And Dundee Meeting
High Prices and Fact That Fighters Have Met Many Times Are Reasons Given By Those Who Want
 New Haven Police to Interfere

About all the IeveI-headed sports in town are against the game which some of the New York prize fight promoters are trying to pull off here. They canout quite stomach the nerve displayed in the seat charges which range from $5.50 to S27.50 and these for a fight that canont be 9 championship and between men who have met seven or eight times before with the opinion prevailing that Leonard can knock Dundee out at any stage of the game he wishes
 If these two men. are to meet in this city 1t should be for an exhibt- ton of a stated number of rounds and at reasonable prices ana not for an alleged cham mQiOIshiD which Leonard has settled with Dundee 9 number of times before.
 As the affair stants at the present
 time it is nothing more than a nice little arrangement for prize fight pro- motors in New York to walk off with the greater part of $50.002 in gate re- ceipts. It is a great game if it works. Perhaps il will if Chief Smith feels strong enough in lis job to allow it to go over in the face of facts that cannot be refuted.

JACK SH4RKEY
 WILL FIGHT IN
 JERSEY TONIGHT

New York, Dec. 22-Jack Sharkey, the youth, that took the wonderful Jimmy Wilde inro camp, will make his appearance tonight at the New ark Sportsmen's clubs of Newark, N. J. The conqueror of Wilde will battle Patsy Johnson. a Jersey lad who Is something of a>Iittle live wire. The feat of Sharkey doesn't feaze Johnson In fact It makes him feel joyful, for in case he defeats Sharkey he'll be quite some pumpkins around his DeighbOrhCOd.
 This will make Sharzey's first showing around here in over a year. Before the Frawley law was repealed Sharkey did a lot of fighting in this town and was always an idol Now that he has added WiIde's scalp to his belt he's just that much bigger. Funny thing about Sharkey is that it was while touring the Middle West that he developed the rushing, smashing, powerful punch that car ried Wilde before hzm.
 A deadly rival of Sharkey is also on the bill This Is Joe Lynch, the West Side star, who fights Joey Fox the English marvel Lynch is keen to get Sharkey in the ring, and if Joe beats Fox he will make Sharkey's s life miserable unless he accepts the challenge Both Lynch and Shar}Eey are in the same weight division and a battle between this pair would be a coTker.

Pittsburgh Will Play Syracuse Eleven On
 Gridiron Next Year

Syracuse. Dec. 22-Glenn Warner and his Pittsburgh Panthers are com ing to Syracuse next fall to avenge the 24 to beating received at the hands Of the Syracuse eleven this season.
 Announcem ent has just been made here that the Pitt eleven will be the opponent of Buck" O'NeilTs team in ArchboId Stadium on Oct. 16. This is the same relative date as the Panthers had in 1919.
 Warner has told some of his Syra- cuse friends that he will have a much stronger eleven next year than he had n 1919. as he has a fine aggrega- ton of players in the freshman squad who will be out for the team next season. Syracuse also will have another good team. so the Pitt -syra- cuse game should be one of the big contests Of 1920.
