WILLS WINNER, BUT
 HE LOOKS AN EASY
 MARK FOR DEMPSEY

It took Harry Wills twelve rounds to polish off Glenn Johnson, an un- known heavyweight, at Madison Square Garden last night. The twelve sessions were hard ones for Jack Dempsey's challenger, and seemed to indicate that he is a long, long way from the worlds heavyweight title. The Wills who fought Glenn Johnson last night would have been a soft mark for Jack Dempsey.
 After l minute and 55 seconds of mediocre milling in the twelfth round Referee Jack Appel stopped the bout to save Johnson from a lot of need less punishment At that stage of the proceedings Glenn had been bat tered down into something like sub mission, but he had fought a game and interesting battle.

The possibility of the Browns talk ing part in the worlds series has grown within the pace of a week from almost nothing to a, size where it now commands attention. The Yankees still hold a pronounced ad- vantage, but 1t has been shrinking fast, and there is a. possibility that it may be entirely gone tomorrow night.
 As matters have stood since last Saturday night, one Yankee victory or one defeat for the Browns would assure the pennant to the Hugmen. But the Tanks lost on Sunday, Thurs day and yesterday resting on the other days The Browns won Sun day, rested four days. and won again yesterday If the Yankees lose at Boston today and at Washington to-

By GEORGE E. F'IRsnBRooK.

Pitcher Ed RommelI of the Athletics, may not top the Ameri- can League pitching averages,
 but he is probably the peer of major league fingers today. Yes- terday, RommeH registered his
 26th victory by pitching the
 Mackites to an 8 to 4 win over Washington in a 12-inning battle, equalIing the record of Bullet Joe Bush, of the Yankees. Bush has lost six games and RommelI 12.
 What would be Rommell's record today if he was on the Yankees pitch ing staff instead of with the Athletics, a, seventh place team?
 With a team of stars behind him like the Hugmen, Rommell would have probably won at least a dozen more games, or 12 better than his or BuSh'S record.
 TO date the Yankees have won 93 games and lost 59-Ath1etics having

World Series Odds
 Remain the Same

New York, Sept. 30-More Giant money is showing up around the betting pools, and it was said that about $3, 300 was laid against $2, 300 in small wagers around the Street yeSter- day. This is still going on with the tn 5 price, and if the figures go to s to 5 1t is expected that the McGraw supporters will un- load their money in case lots. One firm yesterday placed $1 100 against $1 ,OOO that the Tanks would capture the first game.
 Another Wall Street firm has 5000 to wager against $1 900 that the Hugmen will not take our straight. No one has been killed in the crush trying to cover this bet. It is expected that bet ting will be- more active when the wandering Yankees have clinched the flag.

New Haven, Sept sO.-Drastic ac- ton was taken by Tad Jones, head coach of Yale football, when he barred, from the squad for the rest of the season all men who because of failure in their studies. last year were ineligible for playing on the varsity elevn. In previous years men who have been ineligible for partici- patton in varsity athletics have con- tinued with the scrub e1evn through the fall. In the future only men who are without trouble in their scholastic work will be members of the varsity football squad. Such action was de cided upon in order to raise the nor ale of the squad and of Yale athletics to an even higher standard.
