Manager of Texas Baylor
Praises Local Fight Fans;
Compliments Joe Barrett

Texas Baylor, who broke a bone
in his hand during fight with
Johnny Gill at the last Steelton
show, is improving, and hopes to be
able to resume his engagements
within two weeks. He is anxious to
get another chance at Johnny Gill.
In letter to The Harrisburg Tele-
graph his manager, j. e. Cain, has
the following to say:
"I now find time to think the fans
of Steelton and Harrisburg for the
treatment they gave me and my
fighter Texas Baylor. when he in
jured his arm in his bout with
Johnny Gill at Steelton.
"As soon as the docetro examined
Baylor and announced that he was
unable to continue, every one in
the place was satisfied and there
was not one kick registered. The fans
certainly proved their sportsman
ship, and as soon as Baylor is o. K.
will be glad to box Gill again and
show the fans what this cowboy can
do after he gets warmed up.
"I would also like to state that
IL Promoter Barrett continues to
give the same kind of shows as the
last one it won't be very long until
he will have to get a larger place, as
the boxing fans will grow with each
show. 1 also have boy I would
like to show in Steelton against
Billy Angelo. He is Paddy Sylves-
ter. who is just out of the service.
Paddy was a boxing instructor in
the Southern training corps and also
won the lightweight championship
of the above corps. Sylvester is no
stranger. having boxed several times
in Harrisburg, beating Tim Droney
the last time he fought there"

LAST BATTLE FOR
BUCKNELL TEAM
Play at Carlisle on Thanksgiv-
ing Day; Lauster in r.
Lineup

Lcwisburg, Pa, Nov. 21.-Buck-
football season experienced in the
last decade when its gridiron war
riors clash with Dickinson, at Car
Isle. on Thanksgiving Day. The an
nual contest between these institu-
tions have become a fixture on both
schedules, being played alternately
at Carlisle and Lewisburg on Turkey
Day.
Although Bucknell will enter the
fray with q decided advantage in
comparative scores, the Dickinson
ians are regarded here with consld-
cradle esteem. The Orange and Blue
has downed Gettysburg II to 0, while
the Battlefield collegians won from
Dickinson Z to 0. On that basis,
Coach Reynolds men should push
over q victory next Thursday.
Laustcr Right Guard
There is no indication of shake
up, at present, in the Bucknellian
lineup. Coach Reynolds has put
Lauster, the lineman, who formerly
played with Harrisburg Tech, at
right guard in Rosenbloom' place.
Rosenbloom suffered wrenched
ankle in the Gettysburg fracas, and
he is on crutches for the remainder
of the season. That is the only
change expected, providing no other
regulars are hurt in the few remain
ing days of practice.
Basketball practice was started
this week. Following a call issued
by Captain Townsend. more than 30
aspirtants for the five have started
their seasons work. The schedule
will contain more than 25 games,
and by far the most attractive ar
ranged for q Bucknell basketball
season in recent years.

The entire squad were put through

tice last evening. The men are IN
good shape for the game and Will
make Mechanicsburg play hard for
any points they may make. The

lowing lineup on each side.

AMATEURSLOSE
BOUTS ABROAD
Dome Only American Is Vic
torious in Denmark
Battle

Uncle Sans trio OF amateur box
ers, who are touring Scandinavian
countries, encountered an unexpect-
ed setback in their initial foreign
appearance, according to a cable
gram received at New York A. A.
u. headquarters. The team is COM
posed of Aston Dome, of New Or
leans, national 115-pound cham
pion; Frank Cassidy. of the Ozanam
A. A, New York, national 135-pound
titleholder, and John Burke, of the
Willow A. c., of Pittsburgh. OF the
trio only Dome came through his
first bout victoriously.
The team arrived at Bergen, Nor
way, November 10, and made its
first competitive appearance in a
tournament conducted at the Sparta
Club, Copenhagen, Denmark, last
Saturday night. Dome drew as his
opponent one Holm, and gained the
judges award rather handily.
Cassidy exchanged blows with q
boxer by the name of Johansen and
was defeated in three stiffly contest
ed rounds, according to the cable
gram sent by Emil Andersen, secre-
tary of the Sparta Club. Burke met
tartar in the person of one An
dersen, who gained "a referees de-
cision over the Pittsburgh boxer.
Whether this meant that Burke was
, knocked out or was beaten in an
extra round match was matter of
conjecture with the local officials,
but the opinion was held that Burke
was defeated on points when the
judges disagreed, inasmuch as the
cablegram stated that the bouts in
which Cassidy and Burke partici-
pated were close. Burke has never
experienced the sensation of being
knocked out since he started his
amateur career more than year
ago.

WILLARD WANTS
ANOTHER FIGHT
May Meet Fred Fulton in the
East Before New
Year

New York. Nov. 21.-Jess Willard,
eX-champion. and Fred Fulton, the
ponderous plasterer of Rochester.
Mimi. probably will be exchanging
swings in this vicinity shortly. after
plasterer. will arrive from London
next week. Willard is uttering plain
tive means from Lawrence, Kan, to
be given another, chance to kiss the
canvas and last but not least. it be-
gins to. look as though the next ses-
sion of the New York Legislature
would pass the Army, Navy and Civil
ian Boards bill to permit twelve
rounds to q decision.
The combination of these three cir
cumstances point to the bout. Some
or those who seem to have the inside
on solons and boxers are willing TO
assert already that New Workers will
have, to lock the city gates and throw
out tarbed wire entanglements to
keep tho match away.
Rickard Is Busy
Tex Rickard. who promoted some
of the biggest prize fights of late
TIefercnees to the possibiiities of a
Fulton-Willard match; 1t is more
than probable that Rickard will do q
little promoting around New York
when boxing is restored. in addition
to his work as matchmaker for the
International Sporting Club, of New
York.
But there are a few others who are
trying to bring Fulton and Willard
together. Dave Mackay, the Jersey
impresario, will be at the dock TO
greet the plasterer. David has an
armory and everything and would not
have to wait until next year to pro-
mote a boxing bout. David also would
like to match Fulton again with Jack
Dempsey.
When this proposal was made to
Jack Kearns. the manager of Demp-
sey hicked a perfumed handkerchief
and said: "If Dempsey ever lays eyes
on Fulton again he will knock him
out without any formalities OF
matchmaking" But In these days OF
conservative business such things are
not adone. No prize fighter of to-day
would waste a possible fifty thousand
dollar wallop on the desert air or the
barroopI air-which is the same thing
at the current writing.

Rote is not expected to start at quar-

This item never legally belonged in
the $3l6,ooo,0o0 tax levy budget,' he
continued. "but. as is now evident, its
inclusion has served It's purpose ad-
mirably rs a straw man for eifecting

Contrasting the conditions Of school
building construction under the present
city administration with the Mitchell
administration, Mr.. Nudd undc rtakes to
show that under Mayor Mitchell there
was building program, the cost OF
which was distributed over q period Of
wears and scheduled in accordance with
Che ability Of the city TO raise funds
and OF the school authorities to cX-
pend them. The present adminstra-
tion has no such method, and the result
is lack Of accomp' .shlnent, he said.
According to the report OF Superin-
tcndcnt of Schools Ettinger TO the
BOARD of Education last August, cx-
planning the budget requests OF the
various departments of the education
system Mr. Nudd said, more than 500,-

shook their heads and mourned that
politics had ruined the dignity OF the
convention.
The gossip Of the corridors focused
on the activity of the suttragIsts IN
campaigning against Mrs. Sammis and
Speaker Sweet.
The League of Women Voters, ns the

other members of the Assembly Wh6
had voted against the bills.
Mrs. James Lees Laidlaw, chairman
Of the State League Of Women Voters
and Miss Mary Dreicr, chairman Of the
Joint Legislative Committee, have
been in Oswego County campaigning
against Speaker Sweet for the past
week, and helping his opponent, MIS-
Marion Dickerman, candidate OF the
Democratic and Socialist parties. Sev-
cral women opposed to the bills took
the midnight train for Oswego to helE
Speaker Sweet in a weekend tour OF
his county. Tho party included Mis-,
Wren. Miss Beatrice Brown. Miss llar-

Mrs. Nora Blatch Barney.
Miss Mary Garrett Hay, chairman OF
the New York City branch OF the

city women were taking no part in the
