Chains Compelled To
 Play In New Haven
Manager Kearney Announces That Management of Will Hams Team Rejected All His Offers-Report In Elm
 City That Chains Will Have College Players

As Manager Coden of the Williams football eleven hatly refused to bring his players to this city next Sunday, Manager Kearney of the American Chain eleven announced this morn ing that he would be forced to play at Lighthouse Point next Sunday.
 ''I intend to make him another offer today" said Kearney, but I hardly think he can be induced to change his mind. The Williams players don't want to come to this city In fact l don't think they are anxious to play the Chains at all. The Williams boys have enjoyed a big season. The players share of the receipts for the last three games was about S4.S00, so they are feeling chesty.'
 The original decision to play in New Haven was made by q toss of coin. When arrangements were be-

SOMERyELLE HIGH TO PLAY TOLEDO SCHOOL
 FOR NATIONAL. TITLE

Boston. Dec. 5.---SomervilIe Highs big eleven. winner of the Suburban league championship, left this city yesterday for Toledo, O., where it will meet Scott Highs grid machine in the feature intersecti0naI schooIboy foot ball game of the year. Although the grid season officially closed almost q week ago, some 4,OO0 fans went out to Somerviue Tuesday to get a fare well glimpse of the outfit, in action against Medford, that will represent the East in the West on Saturday.
 Coach Sylvie Mclaughlin of Somer- vile yesterday at a meeting named the 20 players that will be taken on the trip, The team that will in all probability start against Scott, which sent q team East a year ago and won, 19 to 0, from Marblehead High, is as follows: Chase, left end; Pierce, left tackle; HerIihy, left guard; Captain Rear6on, centre; McNamara, right guard; GiIkey. right tackle; Lynch, right end; Barker, quarterback; Pat ten, left halfback; Dowd. right half back; Simpson, fulIback. I4averty may start at left haIfback. if Csoacn Mclaughlin decides to have Patten act as field general instead of Barker
 Scott in facing Somerville has a huge task, regardless of the fact that SomerviIIe has not outstored it's op- ponents to any extent throughout the season. Coach Mclaughlin feels that his SomervilIe team will rise to great heights and play Q game such as it did in its crucial Suburban league contest, that against Everett.
 Scott is a real championship outfit, and the logical Western scholastic representative. Somerville is the only Greater Boston team that has not had and is entitled tO represent this section of the country In this alI-inrportant clash.
 Toledo is planning to entertain the

MRS, CALLAHAN
 PROUD OF HER
 THREE ATHLETES

Lawrence. Mass. Dec. 5-When Mrs. Mary E. Callahan learned yes terday that she was the mother of three football captains John Timothy Callahan at Yale, Harry A. Callahan familiarity called Mike" at Prince ton, and Arthur at Lawrence High School, she said:
 ''I am a happy mother, and a proud one I gave my consent to Johns returning to Yale next year at his request, although it was his original intention to take a war degree in June I suppose he wants to show that YaIe's losing to both Princeton and Harvard this year was all q mis- take. and I want him to show it too"
 Mrs. Callahan said she. was unceT- tain whether she would again at tempt the ordeal of watching a Yale Princeton game in which her two sons, both now the leaders of their teams would come 10 grips as rival centres. ''The excitement Of that game at New Haven was great" she remarked in referring to the Yale Princeaon game which she saw three weeks ago ."I. do not know whether shall try to see my boys oppose each other again"

BABE RUTHIS
 NOT BUILT FOR
 BOXING CHAMP

Boston. Dec. 5-Babe Ruth has broken out again. This time as a would-be prize fighter. But it is old stuff. Babe will never do as real fshtcr. He is all right as a home run swatter or on the mound in a ball same but in the fight game Never. The sooner Babe realizes this fact the better il will he for the Babe as well as the game. Funny how the coast fans fall for such stuff. But it is a press agent hoax pure and sim pIe. Kid Mccoy and some more of the coast sports might kid the Babe along as being the makings of a real fighter. but Babe will never make bowling success in the ring.
 How Babe first got the bug that he could fight will easily be recalled. It was three or four years ago when the Sox won the pennant and Ed May nard invited the whole Red SOE gang to his camp at Lake Squam. When the gang arrived in the camp that night Babe happened to spy a set of boxing gloves dangling on the wall. He grabbed them and started trying 'em on.
 Put 'en en-" he said to his old friend Mike McNauy. Mike. at first, was a little slow to respond but after a little coaNfng from the rest of the party Ninnooka Mike finally obliged. Then Mike and Babe went at it in a friendly sort of a way. Although Mike lacked height. weight and reach on the big fellow, he knew how to handle his dukes. and before long he was bouncing 'em right and left off Babes beezer- Babe then started to get mad and as the party began to get rough they started the mill right there and then.

New York, Dec. 5-What was prob ably the greatest crowd that ever tried to see or fight it's way into a six-day race stormed Madison Square Garden last night and made it neces- sary to call out the police reserves of two stations 10 maintain order among the tbousands who clamorcu for ad- mission for hours after the doors had been closed by order -f the Fire De partFCent- Promoters of the race could not remember when there had been such a crush. Not uutii nearly midnight after the sprints had been completed and some of the specta tors had filed out oI the building. were the police able To return to the sta ion houses.
 Harry Payne Whitney was among the spectators. and t- vvas reported that he had offered $1.GCO 10 any team that would steal a lap. This was supposed to be the cause for the daring riding that took place all through the evening session.
 The greatest excitement of the evening occurred a few minutes after 10 o'clock during one of the sprints, when BeyL the French rider. sudden Iy swung out in front and began to set a terrific pace that carried him half a Ia in front of the others be- fore any of the riders had Q chance to make q real effort to catch him. He was quickly relieved by his part ner ,Arets, and in a minute the track was crowded with riders making re- liefs.
 There was such a nix-up of riders that no one could tell just which teams had been afecg Jed. but the sprint resulted in the tapping of four teams These were Brocco and Verri Buysso and Spiessens, the Belgians who have become known as the raw meat team" of the race; Chairman and Spencer and Chardon and Tiber- ghien.

MARIAN FOOLED
 FAN BY TELLING
 OF HIS ABILITY

On their way West to visit DanviIIe, Ky, and See the Centre College foot ball team, were Eddie Mahan, the Harvard star, and Howard C. Rey- holds, the Boston Posts sporting edi- tor. On the same train, returning home from the Harvard game. were number of Harvard alumni who lived in the Middle West There came @ talkfest on football in the Pullman smoking compartment
 None of the Harvard grads recog- r-zod Mahan, and you can bet that Mahan maintained his incognito. He did admit, however, that he had play ed little football at Cambridge few years ago. but that was his limit of admissions.
 Gradually the oratory worked around to a discussion of Tarvard's best football players, but AIahan stood his ground unbIushingIy, and, of course, anonymously.
 Some guy vii h a red-hot stog:e in his mouth asked Mahan what he thought of the ETarvard-YaIe game this year, to which Eddie replied that 1t wasn't quite up to standard. That seemed to be the unanimous opinion.
 Gee, how I'd have liked to see Mahan in that game said some Har-
  played rings around that Yale team. the way they were tackIing." And then, to Eddie, he shot the query. ''D5d you ever see Nahan playo"
 ''Eo, l never did,' said Iahan. "I always just seemed to miss seeing him."
 Did you ever see BrickIey play?'' chirped another Crimson nut from Chicago.
 "Oh, yes; I've seen BriclzIey play quite number of Jimes." said Ed die
 Ever play against Brickley your seIf?" shot a third.
 Sure"
 "How is t. then. if you've played against BrickIey you missed seeing A.ah2n play?' a wise bird wanted to know.
 ''Oh,' Eddie explained with his Ma tick sangfroid. q used to play on the second eleven that lined up against Brickley. That's how I happened to play against him.
 Cautious Like a Fox.
 The old kid from Natick was side stepping his inrutsitors just as craft fly as he ever reversed his field against Yale. But the smoking car bunch, was keen to know more.
 (Which Of the two was the greater player tn your ODinion?" one chap asked Aahan-
 ''ATahan.'' said Nahan.
 (Which of the two dc you think BricEley would say is the greater player?'' asked another curious Grim sonian.
 '1Iahan,'' said lIahan.
 And what about Mahan himself '' shot a third. Whom would he name for his choice as being the better of the two?"
 ''Mahan,'' said Mahan. Knowing Nahan as I do am pretty sure he would say NIahan. You see this guy, NIahan. you're talking about isn't so modest as Charley BrickIey-."
 And then the conversation sw tch- ed. Neither Mahan nor Reynolds. who were the only ones in the know, let the eat out scf the bag. And Nahan himself. who rates as liar wards most seIf-efacing hero. let the whole smoking car gang get away with the opinion that he was a chesty guy. | was too good a joke for him to spoil But the fact is that everybody in the place agreed with Eddie in his jocOsa statements that Mahan was the greater of the

George Lefty" Tyler, the Cubs famous southpaw hurler. is in a hos pitaI at Rochester, Minn., undergo ing treatment for an aiIment to his pitching arm, which rendered him weH-nigh useless to the Chicago club for a great part of the past season. Tyler has complained for the past year or so of soreness in the left arm and shoulder, and has consulted umerous physicians without gain ing the desired relief. The pitchers complaint has been yariously diag- nosed as rheumatism, neutrftis, a torn muscle and a misplaced Hga- ment- He now proposes to find out exactly what is the matter and hopes the treatment he1 will receive will fit him to again take his place as one of the National Leagues leading slab artists when the season of 1920 rolls around.
