reason that instructed r. S. Tru-

possible to do so. There Is no
doubt in my mind that the demand

coed the supply and in this mat

regret that our seating capacity is
so limited. However, we will place
the seats for the show on sale early

PLAYER TRADES
AFTER START OF
SEASON OPPOSED
Sentiment Is Heard
Euen Outside of
Baseball.
BY JOHN h FOSTER,

Copyright, 1922, by The Argus.)
New York, n. Y, Dec. 1.-The
transfer of baseball players from
one club to another of the same
league after the beginning of the
playing season has become a very
lively topic of conversation outside
Of professional ball, as we'll as in
it.
Some of the most prominent ath-
letic authorities in the United
States have expressed a hope that
the professional leagues of the
country will find way to put an
end to any hint of suspicion that
baseball championships can be
bought by the transfer of players
to strengthen team in the final
stages q a championship race.
The athletic authorities in cues
ton, 1t was learned today, in ex-
pressing their stand, have made il
plain that they have no wish to
interfere in the affairs of baseball
They fear the effect of what is
seemingly a violation of the code
OF good craftsmanship on the anna
teur spirit of the United States
They call attention to the influence
which baseball always has had on
the boys and young men of the
country because of its universal ac-
ceptance as the national game.
There is. a strong feeling among
some experienced baseball men thai
no player should be transferred
from one club to another of the
same league after the first day O,
the season and that teams should
not be permitted to recruit from
the minor leagues after July Is.

SEASONS final
Especial to The Argus.1

LaSalle, ILL.,, Dec. Ito lose a
football game in the last four min
utes of play, after outplaying your
opponents all through abe gem,
is known in the football world as
hard luck. But that is the fate of
the Rock Island high school foot
ball squad, who, although crippled
by injuries, outplayed and out
fought the LaSalle-Peru township
high school here yesterday, only to
lose out in the last four minutes
OF play, to 0.
Captain HasSe of the home team,
known as one of the best quarter
backs in the state of Illinois, is the
man who deserves most of the
credit for winning the game. He
not only made the winning touch
down and the extra point, but also
by his wonderful playing was the
deciding factor in the LaSalle VIC
tory.
Rock Island had the better of
the struggle-there is no doubt
about it. Time after time the Wis
| itors came into LaSalle territory,
only to lose the ball AS the first
half ended the Islanders were sure
ly headed for a touchdown, having
the ball on the LaSalle 10-yard line
and first down. The whistle end
ing the half saved the home team.
LaSalle was stopped by the Is
landers all but once, and that once
| was enough to win the game. Time
after time the fast LaSalle backs
crashed into the Rock Island line,
| only to bounce back for a loss. AS
the end of the game neared the
home boys started an offense that
was not to be denied. With Hasse,
Frazio and Jagelski carrying the
ball, the township team started
their. march for the Rock Island
goal that resulted in the winning
touchdown.
The Islanders fell back under the
onslaught until the locals reached
the Rock Island 5-yard line, and
then it was too late. After having
been held twice, Haase slid over
the top Of the pile for the touch
down. His educated toe added the
extra point.
Clark and Alvine, stars of the
Rock Island line. did not play in
the game. and Viner, Chambers,
Whitfield and Houston were remov-
ed because of injuries.
The field was slippery, making
an air game almost impossible. But
few fumbles were made, although
the condition Of the field was such
that 1t was difficult to hold onto
the pigskin. About 5000 witness
ed the game.

Philadelphia, Pa, Dec Penn
sylvania is to be credited with a
magnificent defense in her final
game of the season against Cor
nell, a defense particularly tight
when the play was threatening her
goal lines. But offense, after all. Is
the thing that rolls up winning
score, and Cornell had it. That ac-
counts for the Cornell victory over
the Red and Blue, 8 to 0. But for
a temporary failure Of judgment,
when the Ithaca field general di-
rected his attack against the strong
instead of the weak point OF the
defense, the score might have been
larger.
The Cornell aggregation was a
typical Dobie team, with fast strik-
ing backs, a good line charge and
a strong well spread offense. The
men were cool in emergencies and
kept up a steady pressure which
finally overcame the stubborn
Pennsylvania resistance. Dobie's
men frequently brought the ball
within what looked like possible
scoring distance, but in the first
two periods they were not wise
enough to let Humans side of the
line alone.
They would work the ball down
the field. Then the play would be
switched to the Pennsylvania left
wing, and there it would come to a
stop. Even the swift changing
! Cornell line could not clear away
the first class Pennsylvania tackle
with his PIP pounds of active, ag-
gressive Drawn.
In the second half Of the game
Cornell was wise enough to keep

Legion officials and Lynch's man

that the local club will pay the

penses. While legion officials did
not announce the terms OF Lynch s
contract, the above information
comes from an authoritive source.
What Eddie Anderson will receive
for the bout is not known, but it is
generally understood that the, Mo-
line boy will receive fancy figure.
1t was not until after the legion
boxing committee met with Post

club officials were in touch with

across the Pennsylvania goal line
for touchdown. This score. in
addition to the field goal in the
first period, accounted for the nine
Cornell points, as they failed IN
the try for point from touchdown.
= The big Red team certainly did
push Pennsylvania around the
field. 1t was only heroic work on
the part of the Haisman men,
especially after their own 20-yarc
line was reached, that kept the
powerful Cornell machine from
further scores. Pennsylvania Of
tense appeared somewhat futile
against the active, wide awake and
powerful Cornell line. Her first
downs were pitifully few and
those she did gain were gathered
in by means of forward passes.
When Pennsylvania found hope
gradually disappearing she CON-
menced to try the aerial route for
advancing the ball. One or two
beautiful forward passes connect
ed, but for the most part the heaves
were incompleted Finally, near
the end of/the game, the ever pres
ent Kaw intercepted one of them
and came near getting through for
a touchdown. AS it was he carried
the ball from midfield inside Penn
sylvania's 20-yard mark.
Kaw played his customary COM
plete and finished game. He is a
sterling runner, difficult to bring
down, a steady, consistent punter, a
good forward passer and abso-
! lutely reliable ON defense. He was
we'll supported by his backfield.
All the Pennsylvania men worked
like trojans and well they might,
for kaw, Ramsey. Pfann and Cass-
Idly, the Cornell backs, all hit like
| catapults and each was going for
ward when he hit with a terrific
lunge.

Bears Near . Touchdown.
Neither team could force the way
to a touchdown, although the first
half ended just in time, it seemed,
to keep the Bears from breaking
over the line.
The fight which stirred more in
terest than play had done came in
the third quarter with the Bears
on the defensive, as they were dur
ing the greater part Of the hard
fought game. Driscoll, who had
been performing brilliantly, strove
for long sweep around tackle
and, as he came to the 20-yard line
Halas and J. Sternaman tackled
him fercely. He was picked VI
bodily and hurled five yards back
badly Jared and, as he struggled
to his feet, he cut loose a knockout
punch at Sternaman.
Driscoll Is Banished.
In an instant there was prospect
of a fine free for all battle, and the
players rushed in, followed by the
side line spectators, to join in gory
battle. The officials managed II

The. few policemen inside tn

realizing that the scrap was tn
