POOR AT FORTY DOHENY IS NOW
 A MILLIONAIRE

Don't you think you'll never make a big success because you haven't done it by the time you're thirty, is tho injunction of B c. Forbes in Peoples Magazine for February. Here is one of his proofs:
 Edward L. Doheny, the oil king who was recently reported to have refused an offer of two hundred and twenty-five million dollars for his personal holdings in the huge com panies he controls. including Mex can Petroleum and Pan-American Pe- troleuna, and who is today at sixty three, one of the most notable crea tive business Trojans in America, a well as one of the wealthiest. nc only was utterly at thirty but on his fortieth birthday hadn' saved a dollar for each year of h agei
 His career is one of the most AIa9 din-like ronances of modern times.

SEAT IN GRAND STAND AT PDLO
 GROUNDS SLID

New York, Feb. 20---There will be 50-cent seats at the Polo Grounds this season after all; how many hasn't been decided yet, but more than just a nominal number, according to ar official of the Giants. Theren be a 'substanuaI'' number, according to this official.
 Judge McQuade and Joseph O'Brien, representing the Giants, and Colonels Ruppert and Huston of the Yankees met yesterday and went into the price question at length. The major leagues raised the tariff all along the line at their recent session in Chicago, mak- ing bleacher seats 50 cents, pavilion seats 75 cents and grand stand seats s1. The Polo Grounds has no pavil- ion, but yesterdays conference, at which, incidentally, Charles Stoneham, president of the Giants, was not pres ent, brought agreement to lay out part of the bleachers for 75 cent seats
 The following new scale was agreed
 on:
 Bleacher seats, 55 and 75 cents, in cluding war tax.
 Lower grand stand, s1.1O, includins war tax
 Upper grand stand, $1.1o, includini war tax
 Upper boxes, s2.20, including war ta1
 Lower boxes, a65, including war taz
 For the upper and lower gran
 stand, which is all one now as
 price, with no reserved seats exceT the boxes, the fan blanks down $1-F for the bIeacher seat he blanks dow } either 55 cents or 75 cents, accordin
 to location, the club thus practica1l paying the war tax on the 75 cer l seats. The club owners decided s cents would be too much to charge ft 5 a bleacher seat
 1 It will be a new thing for the fan : go into the upper stand for the sa1r ] price he pays for the lower, and u i change is likely to make many col e verts to the upper stand, for many = them will find out that the upper ti
 is much the better place from whit e to see a ball game The only il I creased prices from last year are u e 75 cents in the bleachers, the low S grand stand seats and a few seats q the middle of the bleachers whit = went for two bits.

HARVARD WOULD
 CHANGE RULE ON GOAL

Cambridge, Feb 2o-Harvard fla vors two radical changes in the foot bah code. After debating them for several weeks, the Harvard. Football Committee, at 8 meeting here yester- day, instructed Frederick w. Moore, graduate manager of the Athletic Association and who is likewise liar wards representative of the Football Rules Committee to present these propositions which are designed to develop the game of straight football for tfiscussion and poss1ble adoption at the meeting of the 1atter body which is to be held in New Y York within a few weeks.
 In order to put a premium on drfv- ing tactics and field play rather as compared with drop kicks or other use of the boot, it is advocated that the distance between goal posts should be narrowed from IS feet 6 inches to IA feet, 'ur theTRabUuts,' the IA feet width not being. set as a definite prop osition but merely Suggested.
 It is also to be urged sUt the meet ing that a. rule should be adopted making it 3. requirement for the goa, after a touchdown to be kicked from a regular lineup by a drop kick o1 place KICK. LO lAtS pIdn the elevens would line up against each other in scrnn1nage formation After t0urhdown, the ball would be snapped and an attempt would bs made to kick the ball over the cross bars as if no touchdown had been made.
 Under the terms of fhis proposal also the ball would be put on the 20- yard line and directly in front of th4 goal posts regardless of where tht touchdown had been made, such g rule as this would do away with thF practice of kicking the pigskfn ou1 into the field from behind the goa. posts after a touchdown in order tt get in a more advantageous position for kicking the goal. IT this sugges ton were put in practice, it would give the team which had been scored on g. better chance for preventing tht goal which means an extra point fo. the opp ponents.

WILDE MAKES RUSSELL QUIT
 IN 7TH ROUND

New York, Feb. 2O-yimmy Wilde, the British flyweight champion, stopped Mickey Russell in the seventh round at the Arena A. C., Jersey City, last night. The little lad from across the broad Atlantic made a chopping block of his opponent, winning every round by a wide margin.
 In the middle of\the seventh round Wilde worked Russell to the ropes with rights and lefts to the head Finally the local boy fell over the top rope completely exhausted. The referee then stepped in and called a halt
 Wilde weighed 1o6 E pounds, while Russell tipped the beam at 115 pounds.
 Although the weather bordered on the zero, there was a big crowd on hand to watch Wilde in his Eastern debut. Everybody figured he would win, and he entered the ring a 3 to favorite. Many wagers at 3 to were made that he would win by a knock out

BOOKS LOANED DURING WAR ARE
 TO BE RETURNED
$500 Provided By State Will Be Distri-
 buted

Approximately $500 of the books which were provided through the generosity of residents of Connecticut for the army, navy, and marine corps during the WAT are being returned to this state by the American Library Association after having seen service literally in all parts of the world.
 The books, among them many technical volumes. recently were shipped from New York by the Amer ic1n Library Association to Mrs. Belle H. Johnson, of the Free Public Lii brary Comrnittee at Hartford. Mrs. Johnson as visitor and inspector of the committee will have charge of circulating the books throughout the state. They are expected to relieve temporarily the need for wider public library service, which, since the war, has been pronounced. in Connecticut as well as in other states. Resources of the public libraries everywhere are not equal to the greatly increased de- mana
 Several millions of books were worn out by heavy usage in the camps, hospitals and training stations, bat the American Library AssOeiat ton was able to salvage more than one million volumes from it's war work in America and overseas. Of these, large quantities arc being retained by the army and navy for permanent H- braEy work, and many are being used by the A. L. A. for continued library service to the merchant marine coast guard, Lighthouses and hospitals ot the Public Health Service. In ap- portioning among the states the seV- eral hundred thousand books remain ing, the American Library Associa- ton based it's figures upon the num- Der of men who catered the service from each state. and also upon the relative need of books as indicated by the number of books in libraries O each state in proportion to its pop uIation.

READING FLOOR
 WORK TOO GOOD
 FOR LOCAL FIVE

A hig crowd of basketball fans saw the Reading, Pa, team of the Eastern league beat the Blue Ribbons at Col cn9zl hall last night by q to fl. The superior passing of the visitors d1d the trick. Their floor work was too good for the Ribbons and the fans were forced to applaud the clever tao tics of the Reading boys
 Dehnert was missing from the Rib bons' lneHp last night and Schwab took his place. He is fast on the floor but not such g. good shooter as Deh- nert. Stretch Harvey who was op- posed to the giant Haggerty, held his own and managed to make sensa- tiona1 long shot himself. Wassmer, Harvey and Wright were the only To- cal players to make field goals Reich Boyle and Dreyfus each made two fol Reading. In the first half Reading was unable to score for five minutes and then quickly took five pofn1 lead The Ribbons rallied then anc the score at the end of the half was IS to 8 in favor of the visitors. They ran away from the Ribbons in the second half.

FEWSTER WILL
 PLAY THIRD FOR YANKEES IN 1920

New Y Yorlz, Fsh. 20--FTank Baker s positive declaration that he will not play baseball again, following the death of his wife, leaves no visible alternative to Miller Buggins other than to play Wilson Fewster on third base. He has had that step in mind all along in case Baker didn't play, but the outfeld situation is as far as ever from solution.
 Another problem, and an important one, for the Yankees. as big g one as the. finding of adequate tielders deals with. the batting order. The Yankees need as much as anything else capa- ble Iead-of man. They haven't been blessed with riches m that way in a long, long time. The best man they ever had was Willie KeeIer. F'ewster may do there, however. He is fast, alert and adaptable. and better hit ter than Frank GiIhooly, who other wise had all the qualifications for ''getting On."

YALE SEEKING
 S3OO,OO0 FUND
 REPAIR BOWL

New Haven, Feb. 20 - Yale has started a campaign for raising $300,- 000 to complete the Tale bowl.
 Original plans called for complete cement instead of the present combi- nation of sand and wood which serves as the foundation for half of the 61,- 900 seats above grodnd level.
 This $300, 900 will provide for a ce- ment foundation and will eliminate the annual upkeep expense of from $20,000 to $3O,OO0 which the shifting of the sand and rotting of wood costs the Yale Athletic Association.
 The Yale Athletic Association, un- der authority of the Board of Con- trol, will ask every graduate and undergraduate to subscribe to this fund, and in return for contributions

BOCASH BEATS WALTER MOHR IN
 FIGHT AT LYNN
Special to The Tines.)

Lynn, Mass, Feb. 20-Louis Bo- gash of Bridgeport, claimant for the New England welterweight title, easily defeated Walter Mohr of Brooklyn in this city last night. Bo- gash went after Mohr from the first bell and gave the Brooklyn boy quite a lacing. He was badly marked while BoSash showed no outward signs of the encounter.
 When Referee Connolly raised Bo- gash's right arm to indicate victory the Bridgeport boy received a great ovation from the fans. The referee had to warn Mohr several times for foul work. Bogash will box Richie Mitchell in Boston next Tuesday. Last nights bout was for 12 rounds.

It was not until he was long past thirty that he was walking along a street in Los Angeles one day when he met wagon loaded with a dirty, greasy substance He asked the negro driver where he got the mater ial, and was told that it come from a nearby spot.
 Doheny, though he had never had anything to do with oil, was con vinced on making an examination of the spot, that If he dug down far enough he would find oil.
 And, after superhuman manual la 'bor, he did. That was his start to- ward millionairedom- The journey took him very few years.
 Not content, however, he journeyed to Mexico, the prospector's instinct still strong within him. Here he again "struclz oil,' in Q double sense. Today he is, I understand, the larg- est producer of oil in the world and IS rapidly expanding and solidifying his operations so that his career is still in the unfolding stage.
 But please mark that at thiry he had got nowhere, was nobody, and owned nothing.

COULD vALGER
 GET KILBANE'S
 TITLE BY K. Q. ?

New York, Feb. 20-Can Benny Valger win the featherweight cham pionship from Johnny K1bane by knocking him out in their bout at the Newark Sportsman's club next We'd nesday night2 Quite a controversy has developed over the question Some experts answer in the affirmative Others declare that the title cannot be transferred under the conditions.
 The weight at which the champion and challenger are meeting is the bone of contention- The majority of experts recognize 122 pounds ring side as the legitimate featherweight limit Valger is required by Xii bane to make 124 pounds at 3 o'clock the afternoon of the bout, while the champion enters the ring at catch weights. In New Jersey and prac- tically every state where boxing is conducted under commission rule the weight limit is 125 pounds, weigh in at o'clock in the afternoon. In England and other European eoun- tries where the sport obtains the linn it is 126 pounds, weigh in at D. m.
 When the Newark promoters matched Valger and Kilbane they cherished the opinion that they had consummated a championship match,
 or, rather, a match in which the title could change hands. Since some
 experts have argued to the contrary,
 they are in doubt about it. Seeking enlightenment, they have asked the Jersey commission to rule upon the point They alsoN have addressed other state boxing commissions throughout the country as well as the Army, Navy and Civilian Board of Boxing Control, inquiring if those l bodies will recognize Ealger as the l champion in the event that he knocks 1 out Kilbane.
 l Of course, it is highEx problematical 1 whether Valger is capable of accom- i plishing that feat, but the possi bility
 has brought up an interesting ques- 1 ton. The controversy also serves to l emphasize the urgent need of a na- 1 tional body to control and regulate l the sport in this country, an authori- 1 tative organization, say, like the Ma tional Sporting Club of London
