Special DespateA TO THn Sun.

CANBRIDoE, Mass. Oct ie.-The Har-
ward football coaches, after being de-
lighted with the showing against Brown
in the first fve minutes of play yester-
day, were much disappointed over the
failure of the team to sustain It's driv-
ing play.
! The team came through the game in
good shape as a whole. but Eddie Casey

cause of a lame ankle. and Ralph Hor-

through the game. will not be able to

year.
The experiment Of using Woods at

end worked out splendidly. Woods for
the FIRST time this season showed flashes

years ago, and he will provide Brown,

brilliantly against Brown at end both

Lack OF Confidence Amazes.

When one takes into consideration
that practically every American has
played baseball or understands the
game, It is amazing that there have
been so many hints. suggestive remarks
and shakings of the head in regard to
the last worlds series. The writer has
covered most OF the worlds series played
between the champions OF the National
and American leagues and never has he
observed such lack OF confidence IN
the integrity of the series.
II There can be no blinking at the fact
that reports and rumors that everything
connected with the last series are
widespread. On every side one return
ing from the series Is accosted by such
remarks as: WAS 1t really on the
levelT"
why should there be ali this doubt?
Was II the size of the purse? Has the
American public so little faith In the
men who promote or play its national
game to believe that professional ath-
letes couldn't play for three-quarters
of a million house and not fall for temp
taticn?
How could a series like that be fixed
and kept quiet? Any one who came In
contact with the worlds series players
and saw the strain they were under can
realize how hard the games were con-
tested. Three hundred of the country's
leading sporting experts sew the series.
and not one of them saw the slightest
thing that might be regarded with sus-
picion. And they were men who know
baseball.

PLAYERS ALREADY
TALK OF INCREASES
Want to Share in Prosperity
Wave Which Hit Baseball
Last Season.
by FREDERICK G. LIEB.

Persons acquainted intimately with
ballplayers are predicting that the
chickens Matched during the recent eight
game worlds series win come homo to
roost before the winter is over. In
other words, magnates will hear lot
about that three-quarter of million
worlds series when II comes time to
talk terms with the players
That half-million dollar worlds series
Of 1919 gave birth to the Federal
League. At least, that series started
the idea of a third major league, and
the gate receipts Of that eight game
clash between the Giants and the Red
sox was the stock argument Of Jim GIL
more when he was inducing men like
Robert Ward, Charles Weeghman and
Sinclair to invest fortunes In his rain
bow circuit.
The fate OF the Federal League prob
ably will deter any one who has am
billions toward starting a third major
league for some time. but there Is no
telling what will happen in baseball.
One thing Is certain. namely. that the
players intend to get in on the pros
perity wave that hit the game last sea-
son.
One already hears such remarks as
"Well, they'll have to come across next
winter. We were working for wartime
salaries and they took in more money
than ever before"
Clubs Debts Paid on.
In a measure that Is true. Salaries
were lower last year than any time since
the Federal League war raised the re-
Enumeration OF the players to artificial
figures But It also is true that many
clubs used their 1919 surplus 70 pay on
ball years that followed Americas en-
try in tile world war. For the hrst time
since buying the Yankees In 1915 Coils
Rupert and Huston are ahead OF the
game. Their profits last year made UP
the losses Of other years and left mar
gin to their credit.
One armament of bali players is that
while theyhave to meet the higher cost
of living like other citizens their pay
has been reduced to meet II. They also
have taken cognizance Of the fact that
the magnates are thinking seriously of
trying out 1853 game schedule next sea-
son. This schedule is extremely likely.

Charley Ebbets. the Brooklyn squire,
evidently isn't experiencing any trouble
with his athletes. despite the fact that
the Brooklyn players share In none Of
the profitable purses that went to the
clubs that finished in the first. second
and third positions.
Ebbets announces that he already

Gamblers Responsible.

The writer traces many of the mean
stories connected with the series to sore
head gamblers who lost heavily on the
Sox, mt only in the series. but In the
first game Many people were backing
Ciootte in the opener. and when he made
such a miserable showing some sore
losers started to spread the story that
somebody had got to the little pitching
star.
Yet the best pitcher is likely 10 get a
hammering. Cicotte was bombarded Just
as hard by the Yankees once last sum-
mer, and few days later he blanked
the New York team with a few hits.

Wells Scores Knockout

The amazing news that Bombardier
Wells, the knocked out champion of the
world. had himself knocked out an op-
ponent. has come over the cable. Until
verified, the report will be regarded with
a certain amount Of incredulity. Jack
Curphy Is the name Of Bombardier's
victim. and as the records are silent as
to Curphys achievements, It is impos-
sible to Judge whether Wells has i'm
proved or Curphy is a hopeless fourth
rater
One thing can be depended On and
that Is that Wells will be matched with
Joe Beckett Every time that Wells has
won bout he has at once become the
idol of the English boxing enthusiasts.
and there is no reason to doubt they
will follow their usual custom in the
matter.
Following closely the announcement
of Wells's victory came the statement
that fearless Fred Fulton. the plenti-
fully plastered plasterer. has obtained
another match in merry England. His
next opponent Is to be Joe Goddard, the
man from whom Beckett won his title.
and Dempseys eighteen second victim
should score as we'll as he did over
Townley.
Fulton must be given credit for per-
severance. and he may In the course OF
time get match with Beckett.
