RICHARD AIMS
TO BRING OUT
NEW MATERIAL
Public Tired of See.
ing Same Faces
All Time.

New York, Sept. 9.-Material
must be found if boxing is to re-
main popular, Promoter Tex Rick
ard declared today, adding that the
day of the mammoth purse and
bankrupting seat prices is passing.
Provision must be made for re-
placement material" he asserted.
81 am convinced that the public is
tired of seeing the same boxers
competing time and again"
With this idea in mind. Richard
is planning to increase the num-
Der of amateur bouts to be staged
at Madison Square garden this
winter, and he hopes to develop one
or more prospective candidates in
each weight class with champion
ship possibilities. While boxing
bouts will be held in the local arena
at least once a week after Sept. %.
few bouts have as yet been arrang-
ed and no special efforts will be
made by the promoter to card prom
inent boxers in any particular
place.
Recent experiences and observa-
lions have led me to believe that
the public wants new figures in the
ring" said Richard. With a few
exceptions, the champions and their
nearest rivals have met several
times and the result of these con-
tests have not always proved salts
factory. In some cases the bouts
have had the appearance of being a
routine affair New and ambitious
candidates for titles are needed to
liven up the sport.
Although the average mind fails
to realize it, the day of the NAM
moth purse and the super-priced
seat in boxing is passed. The pub
lie has not the money TO spend that
it had two years ago and prices in
sport must fall as in other lines of
luxuries and necessities.
THE boxing commission of New
York state has taken a wise stand
in requiring the boxers to appear
upon a percentage basis in place of
fiat guarantees
II have no particular start bouts
in mind at present, but hope 10
use Carpenter, Dempsey, Willard,
Tom Gibbons and others during the
next II months, if reasonable finan-
cial terms can be reached"

TENNIS TITLE
IS SOUGHT BY
WORLDS BEST
One Hundred Eight
After Bill TiLden's
CroIUr7.

Philadelphia, Sept. 9.-America' s
best and the pick of England, Aus
tralia and Japan start in the first
round of the national singles ten
mis- championship at the German
town Cricket club.
One hundred eight star racquet
wielders will start after the crown
worn now by William T. Tilden, the
tall Philadelphia, who boasts of
two American titles, two British
and one French crown
Ichiya Kumague, the specialized
little Japanese who fought the
American team in the Davis cup
matches last week, has been forced
to default but his mate of the Nip
pom team, Zenzo Shimidzu, who
took two sets from Tilden and
forced Johnson to the limit, will
play with S. Kashio, the reserve
member of the team.
William T. Tilden, William M.
Vincent Richards and
Shimidzu are all in the lower half
of the draw which means that only
one will get beyond the fourth
round and that most of the excite
ment will be confined to the early
rounds.

Notes of the Game

Bill Cole caught pair of drives,
the smack of which against his
glove sounded like the report of a
revolver. In the second inning
Eddie Johnson sent the ball in a
straight line to right field, that
Bill held. In the eighth he chung
heft bat, that was not more than
a foot from the ground by the time
Bill arrived within reach.
Ben Tate played a great game
behind the plate. He gathered in
three pop fouls, two of which were
exceedingly difficult chances.
Wally Newell prevented a run in
the fifth inning by coming in nearly
to the skinned surface to catch a
fly ball hit by Eddie johnson. The
infeld was playing in close at the
time, and Murphy had no chance to
get under the ball.
Murphy went over to the third
base line to gather in a fly from
Bobby Coltrin's bat in the seventh
inning. In the eighth, with run
ners on first and second, and one
out, Murphy wet far to the left to
field a slow grounder hit by Woehrs
and get a force play at second.
Lord got an assist and a. putout
| on the same play Brownlow
grounded to him in the fourth. the
ball glancing off to Benson, only to
be f1elded and returned in time to
put Brownlow out at first.
Bobby Coltrin displayed his old
dash, when, in the sixth, he stopped
Benson's grounder over second with
one hand and pegged the Islander
boss out.
Callahan used a lot of endearing
expressions in telling Umpire
George Hughes how much he
thought of him, when the arbiter
called him out at first on a yery
close play in the seventh. Hughes
seemed not to be bothered in the
least, and the storm gradually
petered out.

BLOOMING FOR
R0BT. zUPPKE
Work of Phil Durant and Herrig.
Both Juniors, Attracting
Attention.

Urbana, Ill, Sept. university
OF Illinois sport followers are
watching two candidates for Coach
Robert Zuppke's football team this
fall. They are Phil Durant and
Herrig. both juniors and backfield
men.
Durant was ineligible last season
on account OF scholastic ban, but
has worked OF his deficiencies.
Herrig is from Iowa and was kept
of the squad as a result of the
one-year residence rule in the Big
Ten.
1t may be that Durant will be
showed into the breach at quarter
back left vacant by the graduation
OF Bobby Fletcher. This little fell
low, who won the championship for
Illinois two years ago by sending
over a place kick in the last eight
seconds of play against Ohio, re-
ports shortly to Findlay, Ohio, as
director of athletics in the high
school there.
Durant knows football. He can
punt, Is wonderfully adept in the
open held or on the tossing end of
forward pass, and during spring
pracnce was one of the mainstays
OF the secondary defense. Captain
Waiquist is also being mentioned
Tor the job, but Zuppke likes the
younger lad, especially as he will
lave another year on the team.
With Freddy Majors, for the time
being, the result of a vrenched
knee. it appears today as If Wal
quist and Durant will find the con-
test between them for the quarter
pack position. at least for the start
OF the season.
Herrig is exactly the type of.

new PLAYERS
GIVEN CHANCE
BY SCRIMMACE
Several Show Well On High Team,
While Lettermen Recuperate
From Injuries.
BY FRIER McCOLLISTER-

With two lettermen on the side
! lines due to injuries, and another
player of first team quality inactive
because of eligibility investigation,
the Rock Island high school foot
ball squad lined up for the first
scrimmage of the 1921 season yes
terday.
In spite of these handicaps the
men played a fast, scrappy game
for the first night, and there IS little
doubt but that the Islanders will
have a winning combination this
fall. Almost all of the men on the
first team were inexperienced play
being turned into polished pigskin
/ betting turned into polished pigskin
chasers.
With the alumni game hardly
more than a week off, Coach KIM
mel is increasing the amount OF
work at the practices. Today S
workout was planned as the hardest
that has been melted out to the
squad this season. Tackling was
the program of the evening.
The dummy was brought out for
the first time yesterday For over
an hour the aspirants for the team
took turns diving at the leather fig
ure Ths pit, in which the men
tumble after hitting the dummy,
has been filled with sand, so there
is no danger of more injuries.
Coach Kfmmel picked out first
and second squad and the fun be-
gan. The varsity had little trouble
in pushing their opponents up and
down the field, while the scrubs
found it difficult to gain when the
ball was given to them.
Ash and PANEL, last years reg
ulars, we're unable to take part in
last night scrimmage. PANEL will
be able to play in few days but
Ash will be out for a month The
former will be used at end, or in
the backfeld, when he returns.
The lineup for the first team was
merely an experiment and changes
are expected at every practice. Cap
tain DOMAIN was at his old place in
the middle of the line and looked to
be in fine condition. DOMAIN was by
far the best center in the tri-cities
last fall and much is expected OF
the fighting Islander captain this
year.
Discover New Guard.
At guard new man was discov-
cred who, from all indications,
should be a whirlwind at that posi-
ton. He is March, a junior with
out previous gridiron experience.
He was in every play and the
scrubs were unable to keep him
from breaking through. Magyar, at
the other guard, is a good player
but lacks experience.
Coach KimmeI is out to find
tackle. Hall is holding down his
old position in great style but an
other man must be developed for
the other side. AIyine, who lined
up at right tackle last night, played
well for new man.
For the first time in several years
new men were seen at ends. Searle,
at left end, and Reede, at right,
have not played before but both
showed up in good form at the mi
tia1 workout.
Hunter and Olson, halves. Rincke,
full, and Shelter, quarter, made up
the backfieId. OF these men. Shet-
ter is the only regular. from last
year. Hunter has had football
training, however, and should be a |
ground gamer. End runs
are his specially. Olson needs |
more training but the coach is ex-
pecting a great deal from him.

Islanders and Boomers to PLAY on
a Postponed Contest-First
Game, Gals.

\ The Islanders and Boomers will
play a double header at Douglas
park tomorrow afternoon, marking
the final appearance of the 1918
1920 champions here this season.
The extra game is the play-on of
a postponed contest on the occasion
of Bloomington's visit to the CITY
in July.
The first game will start at Els
o'clock. The single price of admis-
sion will prevail The Rock Island

Right now the Islanders are play
ing as good baseball as any team in

the standings for once, for they
mean nothing at this time The To-
cal club presents compact hit
ting and fielding organization, as
shown by recent victories. Every
man is up and coming at all stages
of the game, just as if they were in
the thick of the pennant fight.
Evansville Sunday.
Evansville will cast anchor in
Rock Island Sunday, and will re-
main for three days. The Island
ers have no postponed games with
the Evas.
Peoria will be the attraction
Thursday and Friday.
Inasmuch as the Islanders have
four contests to play in the three
days against the Tractors, it is
probable that the double header
will be staged Wednesday.
Terre Haute comes a week from
tomorrow to wind up the season
with a double header on Sunday.

player who should fit nicely in
the backfeld with Don Peden, and
Herrig is a smashing, old-style bat
tering ram, always dependable
when yardage is needed. Paired
with Crangle, another clashing
driver, Herrig may cause Zuppke
to alter his attack somewhat this
season.
Previously the Illini mentor has
relied on speed and open forma-
tons. But Carney and Hellstrom
are both injured which upsets a
clever passing combination with
WalQuist on the throwing end. Botn
are expected back by the Michigan
game on Oct. %, together with Ma

The Plowb0ys gained a full game
on the pursuing Tots yesterday by
trimming the Tractors while Rock
ford was giving Terre Haute a taste
of defeat. Many will say the Plows
are lucky because they COPIED on
four hits, while making five errors.
yet the fact remains the victory
means as much as If it had been
accomplished by terrific clouting.
The Islanders are displaying real
class right now. Hard hitting and
fast fielding characterized their
play against the Boomers yester-
day. The manner in which each
man worked would lead one to
suspect they were fighting for the
pennant. As a matter of fact, they
do hope to get off the bottom be-
fore the season ends in another
week, hopeless as the task may
seem. Come out and help 'em do it
After predicting the death of the
Three-Eye this fall, the Peoria Star
breaks forth with its conception of
a new league for 1922, to include
southern clubs as follows: Peoria,
Terre Haute, Springfield. Ohio,
Richmond, Bloomington, Evansville,
Dayton and Fort Wayne.
While Evansville and Terre Haute
may sever connections with the old
circuit before another season rolls
around, there is no indication that
the Three-Eye will not be doing
business again. More than likely
Peoria will be in again, too.
The Star says Rock Island will
quit, without qualifying its asser-
tiOR. The men behind baseball in
Rock Island today have no inten-
ton of throwing up the sponge, be-
cause OF a poor season. They are
laying plans for 1922 that are ex-
pected TO produce winning club,
confident that financial losses can
be retrieved.
Guy Morrison, Evansville hurler,
left the club Labor day for Bloom
ington TO resume his duties as ath-
letic coach at the Bloomer high
school.
Riley, Bloomington OutfieIder,
was released by Joe Dunn at Pc
oria the other day. Dunn was not
satisfied with his fielding, and de-
cided to save portion of his sal
airy for the treasury.

NEW YORK, Nov. 29.-When the ancient and secret order of Hooch Guzzlers convenes in solemn, oath bound conclave it's members may feel safe from the prying eyes of rum hounds" who might attempt to spoil the party by unceremoniously sei2ing the liquid refreshments and dragging those present off to the hoose-gow. In other cities, where ordinary prohibit tion officers enforce the eighteenth commandment" this feeling of safety might be justified; not so here.
 For lazy Einstein, the one man booze squad, chameleon-like masquer- ader of the dry forces may be ex- pected to drop in any where from an exclusive party in Fifth avenue mil lionaire's residence to a private gath ering of East Side ward heelers.
