proves nightly before Saturday he
will be kept out of the game with
Bethany College. In the very first
play Of the ViIlanova game last Sat
urday, Kay received a smash on the
nose and upper lip which kept him
from chewing food. In consequence
he has been suffering pain for three
days. He reported for practice yes
terday, but was unable to go
through even signal practice.
The HatChetites were consider
ably bOlstered by the return of
Gronna, a lineman, Manson and
Chesney, two backfield men who
have been out with injuries, and the
further conditioning of Barr and
Jones, two hefty linemen who will
be ready by Saturday.
Kay may be able to get in the
game Saturday. but 1t is expected
he will be hid out. Eskew a 49,
pound end who has had football ex-
perience. reported yesterday. Jack
son a former Texas tackle, who
weighs 191 pounds, also reported,
but was not in uniform.
The left side Of the Hatchetite
line which showed up weak all sea-
son is expected TO be materially
strengthened.
The Hatchetites are expecting a
tough customer in Bethany College,
of West Virginia, a newcomer to
football here. Tickets for the en-
gagement were put on sale at Spald-
ing's yesterday.

NAVY DRIVEN

FolweIl Paying Special At
tention to Backs; Holds
Night Practice.

Annapolis, Md, Oct. 26.-Folweli
is trying to secure faster and
more coordinate backheld for his
Naval Academy team. The team
was driven much harder this after
noon than on yesterday, practice
continuing by aid of moonlight and
the electric lamps placed around the
field.
Hamilton, Waters, Mckee and
Poole formed the backfeld again.
Noyes has a bad shoulder and will
not be in the game for week.
while Koehler and Cruise may re-
turn tomorrow, their hurts being
slight. Moore, right guard, also re-
turned to the game this afternoon.
Hamilton, who is young, but heavy
and fast and who made an uneN-
pectedly good showing against
Princeton, dashed around end today
for several long gains and may
prove the fast end runner which
the Navy backfield needs so badly.

EDDIE KELLEY MEETS
LEONARD FRIDAY NIGHT

Harlem Eddie Kelley. who is to
box Champion Benny Leonard at
the Armory in Baltimore next Fri
day night will arrive in the city
next Tuesday and will work out
at the Baltimore Athletic Club, and,
as Max Waxman has made some ar
rangements for sparring partners,
those who are privileged to witness
bouts at this club will see the
clever New Yorker work out.
In Kelley's closing workouts at
Stillman's Gym. in New York. the
regulars decided that Leonard would
have to travel fast in order to hold
off Joe Woodman's battler and,
judging from the big crowd that
was on hand to see these work kouts,
it will not be surprising if many
boxing followers come over from
the Big Town to see this scrap.
The Central Club, of which Kelley
is a member, has ordered 800 ring
side tickets and will go to Balti-
more and present Eddie with a
loving cup.

Eastern football sees a lull this
week, but it's probably the usual
period of quiet before the breaking
storm.
1t looks like a row of set-ups"
for the bigger elevens, the most in
tween Princeton and West Virginia.
Roper's versatile men will probably
win without extending themselves,
and be well revenged for the defeat
the mighty Rodgers and other
mountaineers handed them last
year.
Another Southern eleven invades
the Harvard stadium. 1t is the Uni
versity of Virginia team that is
slated for the s1crifice this time. 1t
hasn't been many years since the
Charlottesville men journeyed TO
Yale and won a decisive victory over
the, Elue. But Virginia today is a
different team and Harvard is not
worrying much over the outcome.
Heisman's Penn eleven seems due
for another slaughter with Penn
State billed for a visit, while Yale
should win handily over Colgate.
In the Middle West eyes will be
turned on the Ohio State Chicago
conference battle. These two un-
beaten teams should stage a bril-
liant battle. with the odds favoring
the Buckeyes. despite the strength
OF Stages machine.
In Eastern circles Centre College
has passed out of the limelight un-
til its next meeting with Harvard,
but the praying colonels" continue
to play a big role in Dixie. There
will be more or less bloody bat
tie in Atlanta on Saturday, when
the Danville team matches strength
with Georgia Tech. Both invaded
the East last week and met defeat,
but Tech made it much more in
teresting for Pitt than did Centre
for Harvard.
Below the Mason and Dixon Line
Saturdays struggle. the first be-
tween these two brilliant teams,
will be the one big battle with the
odds fairly even. The duel between

1T now looks like a certainty
that Centre and Georgetown will

said an official of the Hilltop in

day night the occasion will mark
the debut performance of the Wash
ington Athletic Club, recently or
ganized to promote high-class box
ing and wrestling for District fans.
These two wrestlers, among the
best in the country. should draw
big house and the promise is
made that the best in the business
will be brought here II the public
indicates a desire to see them. Joe
Stecher. Stranger Lewis and Earl
Caddock are all available, though
it is going to cost a pretty penny
to get their names to a contract.
Ladies are invited to attend the
match, and. with the best of order
pledged, it is believed that a large
number of them will turn out.
After its first wrestling venture.
the new athletic club will stage
a ten-round fight between Bob Mar
tin. the A. E. F. champion. and Paul
Sampson. a husky battler from Phil
adelphia, at the Hyattsville Armory
on the night of November 5. Mar
tin has established himself as one
of the best of the hesvy-weights
now scrapping. and will find in
Sampson a tough customer. The
bout will be a no-decision affair.
Special provisions will also be made
to extend to the ladies every cour-
tesy at this match.
Organization of the Washing ton
Athletic Club is well under way,
with many of Washington's lead
ing business and professional men
numbered among its hackers. Clean
sport is its motto, and it seems sure
! of success.

PAINTERS BATTERED
IN GAME WITH TECH

Pittsburgh, Oct 26.-The Univer-
sity Of Pittsburgh players emerged
from the Georgia Tech game in very
bad physical condition, and Coach
Warner has a problem on his hands
getting the boys in shape for the
game with Lafayette College, at
Forbes Field. Saturday. No less
than six regulars are badly Grip
pied up as a result of the bitter
struggle with the Southern team.
The outcome of the game was
very peasing to Pitt fans. as Geor-
gia Tech proved one Of the strong
est teams that the Panthers have
ever faced. In the first half, with
Davies crippled in the first few
plays, they clearly outplayed Coach
Warmers men. In the second half,
with the regular quarter back. Tom
Holleran, leading the team, and
with Davies and Hewitt back in the
lineup. the university boys staged
4 magnificent comeback and pulled
the game out of the fire. 1t was
one of the most thrilling battles
ever staged on the local gridiron,
and was witnessed by $4,000 people.

titles Before Cook County
Grand Jury.

Chicago, Oct. 2e.-H. c. Redmond.
a theatrical manager Of East st.
Louis, today told the Cook County

Of st. Louis. gave ComIskey the
names OF the eight players who were
later indicted for throwing the series
TO Cincinnati. Harry Grabiner. sec
retary of the club. and Alfred Aus
trian, attorney, were also present,
he said.
Arnold Rothstein, New York gam
bier. arrived today and was also a
witness before the jury. Before GO
ing into the jury room he said:
The whole thing was started
when Abe Attell and some other
cheap gamblers decided to frame
the series and make a killing. The
world knows / was asked in on the
deal, and my friends know I turned
it down fat. ] would not have gone
in under any circumstances, and did
not bet one cent on the series Nv
idea was that whatever way things
turned out IL would be a crooked
series anyway, and only a sucker
would bet on it"
Joe GedeOn, second baseman for
the St Louis Browns, told the jury
today that a certain SoH player. now
under indictment. telegraphed him
that Cincinnati would win the series.
He also told of attending a con
ference with Abe AtteIl, Carl Zerak

split evenly between the fighters
and the promoters.
Southampton, England, Oct. 90
Tom welch, the British fight pro-
mOter. who arrived here on the
liner New York, from the United
States, today. says he is authorized
by Georges Carpenter to endeavor
to arrange the Carpentier-Dem
fight in Engand, instead of in the
United States. WelCh does not eN-
plain the announcements from New
York that the fight had been signed
to be held in North or South Amer
lea.
WeIch says Carpenter is disgust
ed with his treatment in America,
particularly because of the charges
of crookedness in his bout with Le-
whisky. WeIch expects to see Coch-
ran, who holds one of the Dempsey
fight contracts while he is in Eng
land.
