Boston College Grid Coach Pleads For
 Scientific Loafers

Boston, Sept e.-Good college foot ball players should be scientific loaf CTS.
 This is the theory on which Frank Cavanaugh is training Boston College gridiron aspirants. "In football 9 Cavanaugh told his men "energy should not be wasted. It should be conserved until the proper time. The scientific loafer who has the stuff when it is needed is better than the man who, although earnest and con scientious losses away his strength useless1y."
 His method is contrary to that of many coaches who drive players at top speed to develop strength

SCRATCH EVENT
 FOR DOPESTERS

Baseball is mighty uncertain- something like a fishing trip but here's a chance for the dope sters to turn out some good guessing:
 Who's going to win Sundays dOuble-header at Newf1eId Park -Bridgeport or Hartford?
 Wednesday, Hartford trimmed the HillieS in two games; yeSter- day, PittSield took a double fall out of the Senators.
 Today, the Brown Derbies and PittSfield will clash in a double game.
 If the Derbies take two games today-what is the best bet for Sunday - Bridgeport or Hartfor1d?
 To make it bit deeper, Johnny Thole, on his return from Albany today, confessed he con suited a clairvoyant in the En- pire State capital and received the assurance that the Derbies are going to win the pennant.
 Is the day of the big drive at hand?

NEW PLAYERS
 IN GAME TODAY

With Ernie Sharpe and Will liam Began, the pair of hard hitting stars from the Michigan Ontaria League, here ready for action in today's doubleheader with PittSfieId, Bridgeport fans have again taken heart. Sharpe with a batting average of .317 for the season and Began with mark of .316 should materially strengthen the crippled Brown Derby, lineup, Sharpe is an out fielder and Began an infieider. The former is slated to play the outer garden with Emmerich and Martin, while Reaan may succeed Mclaughlin at third base. The latter has been playing under a big handicap-having bad case Of "charley horse," while Buck IIad's injured hand Is better, it is not in a dependable shape.

 Hammond

''The Hi11ies will win the pennant. I'm cocksure of it. Not any idle boasting, but my honest be1ief,' was what WaHy Hammond. manager of Pittsfeld, declared on his arrival here last night for today's double header with Bridgeport. we are the strongest team in the league today in batting, fielding and pitching. There has been a lot of stories going the rounds that our pitching staff is all in. but that's all bosh,'' added Ham mond.

Leonard and
 Britton Bout Columbus Day

Fight fans are interested in the announcement today that arrangements are. under way for a 12-round bout between the two champions-Benny Leon ard of the lightweight division and Jack Britton of the weller weight class-to be held Co., lumbs Day in the Jersey City Arena. A meeting of the pro- motors and managers of the boxers will be held Tuesday in Jersey City. The battle, it is reported, will be arranged at the old welterweight limit, 145 pounds eight hours before ring time.
 Downey Worth $50; Wilson $20.
 If there is much more monkey doodle business like the fiasco that characterized the Wilson-Downey showed over the precipice into obliv- ion again in the metropolitan district. Tex Rickard at the hearing given the boxers yesterday declared that the both boxers disgarced themselves by ' the exhibition they put up and read what Referee Jim Savage had to say: 'Downey was entitled to about $50 prize money and Wilson to about $20." Both boxers were on the car pet at the session which was called in connection with the holding up of Wilson's guarantee.
 of Norwalk, the Tex Rickard'' of the clam burg, who was a spectator of the fight, says:
 Smith. Bogash X Co.'S Troubles.
 Bridgeport fight fans were hurled day. when they read that Louis Bo- gash and his manager. Joe Smith, were on the verge of split.
 But, as told in The Times, Bogash will not fight Joe Egan tonight in Boston as per schedule. Looey claims he is unwell: if that be so we don't blame him for his stand. But Joe Smith will have a hard time in get posted by Bobash, as word was re- ceived here yesterday from the Bos- ton management that Bogash must fight. or face the loss of the forfeit sachusetts Boxing Commission. Bo- gash's attempt to cancel his bout with Johnny Tillman IS still fresh in the minds of the Boston promoters. Rogash has an excellent chance of making 9 big cleanup financially that will put him on Easy street. for the rest Of his career by buckllng down to business for the next three or four years If there are or have been any differences between he and his manager the friends. of both hope they will be patched up. In sport ing parlance "Joe Smith is the man who made Bogash. He is one of the best and most crafty managers in the fighting game and if Lcoey will get down to business and fight it will be best for all concerned.
 IIOO6v has always been popular in his home city, and one of the best ways to keep in with his friends is to show that he is still in the ring and and not on the verge of a decline is to take up the offer of the Bridge port A. & A. and box Jack Delaney who is meeting all corners and not Qui bbling over matches. If Benny Leonard and-Jack Britton are going to get together on a 145- pound basis, eight hours before fighting time, there appears to be no reason why Bogash and Delaney can not get together on 15S or 160- pound agreement.
