FOOTBALL INTEREST TURNS
 TO CEMTREahARVA GAME

New York, Oct 15-Still feeling the effects of Iowa's to victory over Yale at New Haven Saturday, eastern followers of football are turning to- ward the tussle at Cambridge next Saturday, when another east-west struggle takes place-that between Harvard and Centre.
 Both of these games, the Iowa Yale and the Harvard Centre. have an inn portant bearing on the annual tussle between Yale and Harvard which Is without doubt the climax of the sports eastern season.
 Should Centre defeat Harvard. as it did last year, Tale's loss to Iowa won't affect the big game so much, but 1t win be further proof that the gridiron game of the west is somewhat better than that of the east. as Chicago last year and Iowa this year have about proved.
 Harvard won from Bowdoin Satur- day, piling up Is points and keeping Bowiodn away from the Crimson goal and Centre defeated Virginia Poly 10 to 6. The Virginia eleven is much stronger team than is generally be- lieved, yet the Praying Colonels" won with two of their best men sitting on the Sidelines.
 More shocking to students of the game than Iowa's trimming of Yale was West Virginia's victory over Pitt the first time it has occurred in 20 years. It was a late field goal that turned the tide, halfback Mahrt put ting his toe to drop-kick at the S5- yard line that won to 6.
 Neither Army nor Navy was greatly impressive in their games Saturday in both of which they came from be. hind to win, the former over Alabama Poly 19 to 6, and the latter over Buck nell 14 to '. The Navy game was z smooth affair, but at West Point tht l Cadets were completely outplayeS ] until the last period.
 Where forward pass lost for Col gate at Princeton, the aerial game wo1 for Penn from Maryland An inter cepted pass grabbed by Jack Cleaves Princeton halfback, which he convert ed into a 70-yard run, turned the tricl for the Tigers, and consistent passin, 1 from Tex Hamer to Carl Etresvaa, was Penn's main factor.
 The outstanding feature of the Sat 1 urdays games was the spectacula ] playing of Leland Parkin, who sue
 ceeded Aubrey Devine as Iowa
 quarterback. He scored the winning
 touchdown, and made amazing en
 runs, line plunges and forwar passe.

SKI TO FIGHT
 BECKETT NEXT MONTH

Paris, Oct. 15 (By the A. P.)-The next fight in which Battling Ski will take part will be staged in London November 23. On that date the Sene- galese eonqueror of Georges Carpen- tier will meet Joe Beckett, the English heavyweight, in a twenty round battle for the heavyweight championship of Europe.
 This was decided on today when Major Arnold J. Wilson, the English promoter of boxing contests, obtained the signatures of both NJ. Hellers, Skis manager, and Ski to contract
 under which Ski will receive 455o pounds for his end of the purse. Ski returned to Paris from Holland this morning and had a long talk with Manager -Hellers prior to the signing of the contract. The difficulties which had threatened to separate the mana ger and the fighter had been Smoothed
 over by an announcement that the French boxing federation was inaug-
 urating an inquiry as to why Ski
 obtained only 75,00o francs as his share in the purse for fighting Car
 pentier, when the winners end was advertised to be 200, GOO francs.
 Siki has signed contract with Hell lers, who is charged with the task of
 looking after the affairs of the Senegal fighter until May 30, 1923. Hellers, not having heard definitely from Tex
 Rickard with regard to fight for his charge in the United States, decided to accept the offer of Major Wilson for a bout in London with Deckett,
 who last Thursday night in the Eng fish capital slowed away Frank Moran the American heavyweight, in seven
 rounds.
 Ski is bubbhng over with confidence in his ability to defeat Beckett and he | appears to be in the pink of condition for a fight. He told the. correspond . ent today that he had turned over new leaf. and that hereafter he would eschew his erstwhile favorite tipple- absinthe. An an indication that Sfki is at l present treading the straight and mar row path were the words used today | by the Dutch fighter rVandAveer.
 ''S1kr said the Dutch heavyweieht i ''is as dry as America"
 l Ski is considerably heavier today ] than when he met Carpentier three weeks ago. Since that time he has l added nearly seven pounds to his avoirdupois. Today he told the cor
 respondent he weighed 1S0 pounds and l that he had decided henceforth to fight i at this poundage. The African fighter does not con- ceal his lack of desire to meet Harry l Wills OF Kid Norfolk, the Americah h
 negro battlers, but through Hellers he 1 has expressed a wish that my cou,ins 1 victory over Beckett shall be consid :
 cred sufficient qualification to meet

ortelAeaaA at every stage of the game the Academy eleven was held scoreless Saturday afternoon on the Academy Campus by the fast and heavy yoca- tional School team which waded through and around the Academy team for a total of 29 points. With a team that outweighed the local team the Vocation al boys had things pretty much their own way during the first part of the game but in the second half the local players seemed to collect themselves and the game was good.
 The Vocational team started off with l rush, .hammer1ng and battering the.r way through the Academy line for two touchdowns in the first quarter.

sIsLER RECORD NOT
 so BIG AFTER ALI,

George Sisler. the brilliant first base man of the St Louis Browns, is not such sharp shooter after all. He made all existing marks for consecutive hir- ting his target and he succeeded in sha.- terfng but one, that in the American League held by Tyrus Raymond Cobb, manager of the Detroit Tigers. Ire Georgia Peach had hit safely in forty games back in 1911. Sisier ran the to- tai up to forty-one uptlr he was stop ped by Bullet Joe Bush of the New York Yankees
 While Cobb ret.nQutshed hts claim to the title, he tied anotner, that of nnak- ink 200 hits for the eighth time of his Major League career, thereby equaliing the Major League standard set by Wee Willie Keeler of the 2ld Baltimore Ori- | oles.
 Feeling confident that he could e. l Gpse Cobb's record, Sisler set out to ov- ercome two marks that had successful ly withstood the assaults of many noted willow wieiders who had come before Sisler. Hitting consecuti7eiy in so many games is quite an achievement and has been accomplished but three times before under the heightened pitching distance ol since 1893.
