GUY NICKALLS TO

New Haven, Conn. Nov. 1s.-Guy
Nickalls. who coached Yale crews
from 1914 to 1917. will probably
become the successor of Professor
Abbott, who resigned recently as
rowing mentor. Announcement has
been authorized by the Yale ath-
letic heads that NIckalls is being
definitely considered. Nickalls, who
is now in England, has signified his
willingness to resume his position
in a cablegram to Frederick AL
len. chairman of the committee,
and arrangements are pending.
Nickalls, who has a worldwide
reputation as oarsman and coach,
was remarkably successful with his
Yale eights, and the students here
favor his resumption of rowing af-
fairs. He was head coach in the
spring of 1917. but, soon after war
was declared. returned to England.

ice. He has remained on the other

THORPE SAYS WEST
Is ALL-AMERICAN

New York, Nov. Isl have worked
as an official with nearly every great
football eleven in the East this fall, &"
says Tom Thorpe, of Columbia
There is one fellow that no football
writer who is not blind can keep OF
his all-Eastern or all-American eleven
when the season Is over. His name is
Belfort West and he is captain Of
Colgate.
This fellow Is the ideal tackle. In
fact, he is one OF the greatest tackles
the game has ever known. He has not
a weakness.
You know there are some magi-
clans whose hands are so much faster
than the eyes of the audience that
they make all their tricks look sur
prisingly simple and easy to perform.
That Is West He does everything So
well and with so little effort and
withal is so fast that some times his
best work is overlooked.
But he is an all-American tackle
il ever there was one. He Is the bull
wark Of the Colgate defnse and make
no mistake about it"

MAJORS SURE WILL
ADOPT l54 GAMES

Every one associated directly with
the major leagues predicts that both
circuits will lose little time getting
back 10 the 154-game schedule in
1920. The season just passed was
the best financially in history, de-
spite the fact that il was cut by
fourteen gmes.
The progressive element of the Ma
tional League will use this point as
an argument for legislation against
certain economical rules passed dur
ing the days of the world war. At
the present time the training Of Ma
ttonal League clubs is limited to
thirty days prior to the opening OF
the season. John ]. McGraw ana
others of his stamp always have
that training limits,
roster limits, salary limits and the
lack smacked too much of the brush
for the good of major baseball.
Now that the National League
boasts a worlds champion. IL is like
ly the parent major will take OF the
blanket to maintain the prestige so
dearly won.
