YALE VS. BROWN AT
 ELM CITY TONIGHT

New Haven, Feb. 25.-The Brown university five will be the opponents of the Yale quintet. This game is one of the many events scheduled among the Junior Promenade festivities now going on.
 The Yale team is not over confident, however. 4 hard fight is looked for ward to. The last few practices have been especially snappy, owing partly to the presence on the floor of Charlie Taft, 1918, former basketball cap tain, who is lending valuable aid in keeping the Ellis in prime condition.
 The same lineup which has been used in the past few games will prob ably start against the Brown five. Van Slyck and Horton, the Blues two star forwards. have been going faster than ever lately.
 As an added attraction, Izzy Win ters, Yale wrestling coach, and Gill bert Williams, heavyweight wrestler of the class of 1920, will put on a short exhibition between the halves of the game.

CAN'T COMPARE CANS
 WITH LEONARD

The consensus of opinion on the Leonard-Ritchie fight seems to be that Ritchie won on points, but that if 1t had lasted a few rounds longer the Californian would have been knocked out. The bout will be restaged some where in the East, probably in New York. after the passage of the new boxing bill.
 The folly of advertising Leonard as 8 second Joe Cans to persons who had seen the negro lightweight tn action was demonstrated on the night of the fight San Francisco boxing fans had seen Cans with Nelson, with Britt and with Wolgast and they still remem- oered him. When Leonard stepped the first round with Ritchie and made rather poor showing the gallery de- manded, What do you mean. another Joe Gans?"
 Leonard is a good boxer and a good fighter. He has demonstrated that he Is the best of the living lightweights, but the sad-faced co1ored boxer was the ;greatest of them all. He could have stopped two Leonards and two Ritchies in q single ntkht-

BIC MEET AT THE GARDEN TONIGHT
Meedith, Baker, Campbell and
 Other Stars on Hand.

New York, Feb. 25-When the gun cracks and the five fleet f1lers-Ted Meredith, Tom Campbell, Homer Baker, Dave Caldwell and Marvin Gustafson-shooto out on the boards in the MiIlrose 500 in the AfilIrose A. A. meet in Madison Square Garden to- night athletic fans probably will wit ness one of the best foot racing duels of the decade.
 Few of the experts accord the great Meredith, fresh from the flying fields of France, with less than 8, fortnight's training and stable worn from lack Of track competition, a chance of cap turing premier laurels. The wise ones say the tearing of the tape win be done by either Homer Baker, the willy old veteran, or Tommy Campbell, the phenomenal youngster from the Middle West.
 Campbell, three times conqueror of Joie Ray and victor over a fleet field in the last national senior half mile championship, comes East with the reputation of being an even greater middle distancer than his brother Leroy, and Roy ran in near record figures several times before he hung his athletic togs in the closet. donned khaki and went lover there" to help chase the Germans back to Berlin.
 Certainly no youngster ever strip ped more like a champion than does Tommy Campbell. Along with Clyde Stout and Joie Ray Campbell had a workout in the New York A. c. gym naStum yesterday. When he got of the rubbing table Paul Pilgrim, double Olympic winner at Athens, turned to Mat Ha1pin and said:
 He's race horse every inch of him Nature framed no man better for run ming than this lad. He has a long, barrel chest with plenty of lung space, lean, sinewy greyhound limbs and a fighting jaw. He's got speed in his legs and stamina and stay in chxt and chin. He looks worthy of test ing the mettle of Meredith at his best"

HOW TENDLER SIZED
 UP TO HIS OPPONENT

This boy Tender may not be up to championship standards just yet, and he may never land in the charmed circle, but he is one of the most dan gerous and unpleasant opponent in the lightweight division. He can make 133 pounds with no trouble. He is long, lean and worst of all for the other fellow, lefthanded. When boxer is good and lefthanded he is sure to make trouble. In addition Tender is a bit cross-eyed. This re-
 minds us of a little story regarding the Philadelphian. It was in bar Der shop, and in came a very muss- ed up individual He was introduced as the particular friend of the head barber, who whispered in awed tones: That guy is Jack Russo, the light weight from New Orleans" Of whats the matter with your face ?" we asked Jack. You look as if you had gone through a wheat thresher." |"
 "Oh, I had a. little argument with some guy by the name of Tender last night" replied Russo. 'Scotty Mon teith had a match for Johnny Dun dee with Tender in Boston and at the last minute he says to me: Jack, you go up there and lick this man Tender. He's a cinch. So l take him at his word, because he's my manager as well as Dundee's. and I go to Boston. I step into the ring and a left handed, cross-eyed string bean starts shooting gloves at me from all kinds of funny places. He looks out into the crowd and jabs mo in the nose. I think he's going to swing his right and again that left swats me on the mouth. Three rounds of that and says to myself, says, Jack. better catch that early train for New York. So fouled Tender and stop ped that bout. I wouldn't fight him again for $5,000-and I want to. tell YOU. I'll never forgive Scotty."

LAUDER TO COACH
 YALE THIS SEASON

New Haven, Feb. 25.-Wiu Lauder. the former New York National League third baseman, has organized the bat tery material for the Yale baseball team. and he will set the general squad at work this week.
 Lauder has been given general charge of the squad as head coach, and the university feels confidence in his ability to make the most out of the material. He was head coach in 1917, when the Yale nine was dis banded, after the Easter trip, because of Americas entry into the world war, and he had developed a team which Yale men believe will prove the strongest which has represented Yale in twenty years
 No professional coach was engaged at Yale last year, although a short schedule, limited to eight games was played. The coaching was done by 8 committee of alumni headed by Burn side Winslow, for two seasons Ya1e's captain. He was assisted by Dutch Garter, Yale's greatest former pitcher and "Zeke" Bronson, the former third baseman. The team won every game having q trump card in the wonder full pitching of Eddie Talcott who was graduated last June.

WILL KEEP RUTH
 IN ONE POSITION

Boston, Feb. 25-Ed Barrow, man. ager of the Red SoX, announced yes terday that he would use Babe Ruth in only one position next season, and that the Red Sox star would not be shifted around from the pitchers box to first base and the outfield, as he was last year, when war eXigencies required the playing of Ruth in posi- tions which needed to be boIstered up.
 "T intend to pick one position for Ruth and will keep him there" said Barrow. "I have not yet decided whether I will continue to make use of his remarkable ability as a pitcher or to play him in the outfieId, where his great batting skill will be daily asset to the club. But I will use Ruth either as a pitcher or an outfielder as I do not think he can do himself justice if on his off days he plays the outfie1d."
 It is generally supposed here that if the other Red Sox come up to ex- pectations Ruth will be made the reg ular left fielder of the club, repIac- ing Lewis.

MORE YANKEE HOLOOUTS SEND
 IN THEIR SIGNED CONTRACTS
Huggins Claims Pipp to Be the Best First Stacker In
 Baseball

New York. Feb. 2J-Signs of ca pitulation by the Yankee stars were disCerned yesterday when Walter Pipp the first baseman, sent his sign ed contract from his home in Grand Rapids. and Duffy Lewis, the slugging outffelder obtained in the deal with the Red Sox, was brought into line by Bob Connery. the Yankee scout, who met Lewis in Fresno, Cal.
 Connery was sent to California by Miller Huggins to complete the Quinn deal with the Vernon club and to sign Lewis. The former Red Sox star had been quoted as demanding some of the purchase money Harry F7razee re- ceived for his release before he would come to New York.
 Connery evidently was successful in appeasing Lewis, as he wired to the club yesterday: ''Lews has ac- cepted terms; will sign contract as soon as new one reaches him. Every thing satisfa ctory."
 Harry Sparrow, business manager of the Yankees. explained that the club has sent Lewis contract to the Mare Island Navy Yard, where he was serving as a petty officer in the navy until his discharge from service a few weeks ago. The contract, it seems, never was forwarded to him.
 Pipp returned to his home in Grand Rapids after his discharge from the Naval Aviation Service. He was or dered to the flying school at Pensa- cola the week the armistice was sign. ed. but the order was cancelled.
 Huggins threw a Few verbal bou-

uuets at Pipp. i've heard a lot about first basemen since I've come to town, and I heard a lot of boosts for Chase, SisIer. McIunis and others. I want to say, however. that l think have the best first baseman in baseball, and that he will be so recognized before another season.
 "Ptpp can do everything around first base any of the others do, and his great reach gives him a decided advantage over most of them. And knew Of no other first baseman who carries more of a kick at bat. He hit .3O4 for me last year, but a batting average does not begin to tell Pipp's usefulenss to a team. His ability to make those long hits at critical times makes him one of the most valuable men in baseball. He led his league in home runs in 1916 and 1917, and has led his league In driving in runs
 ''Pipp still is a young fellow, and 1 think was just reaching the top of his game last season. He is improving, and I pin a lot of faith on him for next season.
 Much of my offense will be built around Pipp and Lewis next season, Lewis always has been g. natural hit ter, and I cannot see why his year in the navy should affect his batting eye Lewis played practically all of last summer, as he managed and played the outfeId for the Mare Island naval team. Lewis is about 30 years old and in his last year with Boston he hit 1902. I expect him to do just as we'll with us.''

O'DOWD WANTS ID MEET FRENCH
 HEAVY EIGHT

Paris, Feb. 25.---Nfike ODowd, worlds midMeweight champion. last night threw down the gauntlet to Georges Carpenter, the heavyweight khampion of Europe. ODowd was introduced from the ring of the Cirque Paris and took advantage of the opportunity to issue a formal challenge to the French pugilist and aviator.
 The American declared that he was ready and willing to fight Carpenter at any time, any place, for any purse and any number of rounds.
 Spectators received the impression that OoDwd was heavier than the mfddleweight limit of Europe, which is 16O pounds, and as Carpentier fights at about 175 pounds, the difference in weight would not be great
 AS ODowd is a more rugged man than either Frank Klaus or Billy Papl1e, both of whom prevailed over the F'renchman, at the time he was fighting as a middleweigdlt, opinion is to the effect that the American would have an excellent chance against the Frenchman.
 Coincident with the announcement of OrDowd's S challenge came the state ment from Carpeuicr yesterday that he already has begun training for his bout on July 4 with Dick Smith, the light heavyweight champion of Eng land. As garToutier holds the light heavyweight title of Europe as well as the heayyw championship. smith. if he defeats Carpenter will gain both titles.
 This match gains additional interest from the fact that it is to be staged in aStras5ourE, the capital of the re- conquered province of Alsace-I-Or- raine. and the setting of the date on Americas Independence Day is taken as a grateful acknowledgment of the part taken by United States soldiers in restoring the territory to France. Both Smith and Carpentier were re- gently discharged from military ser vice in the British and French armies respectively. and the men are said to be in good physical condition.

MATTY MAY BE
 NEW GIANTS COACH

John McGraw and Captain. Christy Mathewson will confer during the week regarding a berth for Matty with the Giants next season There still is doubt whether Big Six will re- turn to the club with which he won his greatest triumphs, for Matty Is accustomed to drawing a big salary. much larger than the Giants desire to pay for a coach.
 It Is really the money that stands in the way Of Mathewson's return, but there Is a chance that it will be ad- justed, so that Matty may see fit to accept the position as first aid to Mo Graw. While serving as manager of the Reds, Matty drew a salary in ex- cess of S10,000 6 year, and it is re- ported that the RedIand officials were unwilling to renew Matty's contract at such high figure.
 McGraw appreciates the box office value of Big Six and may deem it good business to give him almost as much as Matty wants for Suidinr the Reds.

It was naturally expected that the Boxing Bill, which goes be- fore the Judiciary Committee this afternoon, would have some Op- position and the first to come out and say they are not in favor of the pugilistic bouts although they have no opposition to exhibitions are members of the Pastors As- sociatiOn of this city.
 The pastors of the various churches throughout the city held a meeting yesterday and many of them will go to Hartford this afternoon to speak against the bill.
 It will be remembered that this same Pastors Association tried to stop baseball on Sunday in this city but nothing ever came of it.

Pittsburgh, Feb. 25-Hans Wag- ner, the grand old man" of baseball. and hero of many a diamond battle, is about to enter politics. Through the persuasion of his friends. it is said, he has been induced to become a can didate for Commissioner of Allegheny County.
 Wagner has not been indorsed by any political faction. but says he will seek the support of his legion of friends first, after which he believes one of the parties, perhaps all of them, will see him candidate to be reckoned with. AS he is known by sight or reputation to virtually every man, woman and child in Pitts burgh, his sponsors feel confident that he will be a factor in the cam paign.

COFTROTH WILL STAGE
 RTTCHIE-LEWIS BOUT

San Francisco, Feb. 25-Jim Golf roth, the leading boxing promoter here, today announced that he in tended to try for a Willie-Ted Lewis match for the welterweight title. The recent Ritchie-Leonard scrap, in which the former title holder won the popular decision, drew s17.000 despite the fact that it rained all day. Ritchie now Is a popular hero in this town. Those who saw him drive the lightweight champion around the ring believe that he is good as ever.
 Rftchie no longer can make the lightweight limit, but he can be in the best of shape and not weigh moro than 142 pounds. Ritchie declares he Is in far better shape than he was when he met Lewis in New York some years ago.
