RICHARD PLANNING
 ATTRACTIVE CARDS
Not Likely However, to Have
 Dempsey in Action

New York, Sept. 25.-While there is scant likelihood of Jack Dempsey risking his heavyweight crown be- fore next summer, and in spite of the fact that the titleholder has started light training at a local gympasium, Tex Rickard plans sev- eral light heavyweight bouts as features of the indoor ring cam raign at Madison Square garden.
 Two outstanding matches now hanging fire promise to involve Mike McTigue, worlds 175-pound champion, in bout with Paul Ber- lenbach, hard-hitting New Yorker, and Gene Tunney, the American champion, in contest with Tom Gibbons of St. Paul.
 The champions in both instances, have proved 'he stumbling blocks in negotiations. Both Berlenbach and Gibbons have accepted Rick ards terms. McTigue also has in- dicated he is ready to fight on a date late in October but the Irish man has not yet signed. Neither has Tunncy.
 Dempsey's training activities have revived talk of possible return bout with Gibbons here during the wIn- ter but financial prospects for such fight indoors so far have not ap- pealed to Jack Kearns, the cham pion's dapper manager.

AD STONE BEATS
 YOUNG STRIBLING
Former Marine Knocks Macon
 Fighter Down in Final

New York, Sept, 25.--Ad Stone, of Paterson, N. J., occupies an impor- tant position among the light heavy weights swarming around the elu- sive champion, Mike McTigue, fol- lowing his popular decision over Young Stribling in their l2-round bout at Newark last night. Stone weighed l79 and Stribling 16S.
 The former marine almost added the sensation of insensibility to the youthful Georgian, who has never been knocked out, and, sent the schoolboy 10 the floor for an instant in the final round although the knockdown was effected by q light tap which found stribling's jaw as he was off balance in one of the frequent wrestling clinches which marred the otherwise active bout.
 Stones victory was earned by a sensational finish in the twelfth round after the earlier sessions had found Stribling's speed and fast left jab to the face an even match for Stones willing milling and consist ent body attack.

ORIOLES BLANKED
 IN SEC0ND GAME
Fuller Holds Baltimore Club to
 Six Hits

Waterbury, Sept. 25.--The Brass. eoes played great ball behind Wheel CT Fuller's steady pitching yesterday to take their second straight game from the Baltimore Orioles. The score was s to O.
 Fuller twirled cautiously all the way, permitting but six hits while his mates fielded brilliantly and sen sationally. The Orioles were unable to bunch their few safeties to ad- vantage and threw away several chances through poor base running.
 Jack ogden pitched fair ball for the International league champs but got away to a poor start. He also weakened in the eighth inning and was found for three tallies which just about sewed up the game.
 Carl Schmehl tripled along the right field foul line to lead off in the first inning and Demoe walked. Moe Solomon singled cleanly to right and Schmehl scored, Demoe halting at second. Yordy forced Demoe at third on the next play and Long forced Solomon at the same sack moment later. Graham singled sharply to left but Yordy was nip- pedal the plate, Jacobs to McCarty.
 The Orioles threatened in the sec ond when Sheedy doubled to left af- ter one was out, but the next two men were easy for FuIler-both be- ing retired on infleld grounders.
 The Brasscoes pushed another across in the second. Joe Boley booted Burke's grounder to start it off and Aleck Schauffell fiuked hit into short right. When Tomlin kick ed the ball, Burke continued to third. Fuller dumped a Texas leaguer into right field and Burke scored. Schmehl famed after that and a double play followed.
 That was all the scoring until the eighth. Here Schmehl walked and Demoe doubled to left, Schmehl pull ing up at third. Solomon was pur- posely passed, filling the bases. Yordy hoisted to Jacobs and Schmehl counted after the catch. Long bunt- cd along the third base chalk mark but Maisel threw wildly to first and Demoe and Solomon scored. That was all but it was plenty--for Fuller kept up his blanking tactics in the | ninth. .+ aprt,a .oc,a.

SERIES OF 1912 CLOSELY FOUGHT
Giants Ys.- Rcd Soy Title Play
 Ecipssd All Others


 New York, Sept. 25. - From spectacular viewpoint. the worlds series of 1922 in which the New York Yankees turned back the New York Giants and climbed the cham pionship peak after two previously unsuccessful battles with the Me- Grawmen, eclipsed any on record, but the palm for the hardest-fought title struggle goes to the famous series between the Giants and Bos. ton Red Sox in 1912
 In that memorable fight for pre- mier diamond honors dozen years ago, the rival clans, led by John McGraw and Jake Stahl, fought through eight games. including an Thinning tie. before the Red Sox gained the verdict. Coming from behind after apparently being hope lessly beaten, the Giants captured two games in row, only to drop the eighth and deciding game in 10 bitterly contested innings by a count of 3 to 2, with a fatal error by Fred snodgrass. Giant outfielder, causing defeat that was hcart-breaking to the National leaguers and their pre- mier mound ace, Christy Mathew son.
 1 Observers of that series recall that so nerve -wracking was the struggle, played for the most part if, cold weather and under the han dicap of frequent hops back and forth between the two scenes of ac- tion, that players were scarcely able to control their emotions In the final game. When 1t was all over rival managers declared their belief that their men could not have stood the strain of further competition.
 On only one other occasion has the series gone the limit of games before a decision was reached. That was in 1909 when the Pittsburgh Pirates triumphed over the Detroit Tigers. Each club won on alterna- tive days in this battle until the Pirates made 1t four out of sevei with Babe Adams figuring as tie outstanding hero with three of t&e Pittsburgh triumphs to his credit.
 In 1903, series rules called for ths best five out of nine games to de- eide the championship and 1t took eight contests before the Boston Americans vanquished Pittsburgh. With the same regulation prevailing, eight games were required before Cincinnati took the measure of the Chicago White Sox in 1919 and the Giants downed the Yankees in 1921, while Cleveland and Brooklyn met seven times in 1920 before the h. dians triumphed. The seven-game rule has been in effect again since 1921.
 The quickest series on record was that of 1914 when the Boston Braves after their sensational pennant drive, overthrew Connie Mack's Athletics in four straight games. The Chica- go Cubs, conquering Detroit in 1 907, and the Giants, downing the Yan- kees in 1922. also hung up records of four victories and no defeats, but in each of these instances tie game prevented clean sweep.

The fame of the Fed. leaguers did not live, long. Benny Kauff, leading hitter during the last season of the independents with an average of .344, had a stormy career with the Giants and soon passed out as an 'endestrable," according to the ver- dict from Judge Landis.
 Lee Magee, another swat star with the Feds was a fiivver when he re- turned to organized baseball. He cost the Yankees $40,000 aid was traded for the Cuban, Marsans, to St Louis One season with the Browns was all for Magee and, after getting his unconditional release, he signed with the Cincinnati Reds. But Zee did something that was not ac- cording to Hoyle and he was dropped like a hot potato.

MANY CHANGES IN COACHING RANKS
Colleges Seek Services of Sue.
 CeSSiul Mentors

Coaching a football team at a major college is no longer a sine cure.
 Like the big league manager in baseball, the college football coach must deliver, if he is to retain prestige and position.
 In the old days, if the coach succeeded in turning out team that beat its hated rival. the reason was considered to have been suc- cess. It's different now.
 The huge stadiums a number of colleges have built in recent years have considerably changed the status of the coach. There is a big overhead connected with those stadiums. In order to meet 1t and incidentally make enough money to tide over sports that do not draw like football, the coach must annually turn out winner.
 The coach who has the happy faculty of some way developing a winner in football is always in de- mand. When the gridiron prestige of college begins to wane. the athletic board immediately starts to flirt with the successful mentor.
 Many New Methods
 This season will see new methods installed in different sections of the country. A number of the leading colleges have changed their coach- ing systems.
 In an effort to cut a swath in southern football circles, Trinity has Howard Jones as coach. At Iowa Jones met with great success, won several championships and de- feated Yale. his alma mater, in an intersectional clash. Trinity looks fer Jones to put it on the football map. He should.
 On the Pacific coast, Stanford, tired of having California hog the spotlight, has Glenn Warner, who made history at University of Pitts burgh as coach. For several years Warner has been having his system established at Stanford by certain assistants. This year he takes charge in person.
 Warner hopes 10 make things in teresting for Coach Andy Smith of California. It is well known fact that Warner usually makes good on anything he sets out to do in foot ball.
 Moran at BuCknclI.
 Bucknell will be guided by Charley Moran, who made the foot ball world take notice with his great little Center College eleven. Buck nell dedicates a new stadium thit year and wants winner, must have if.
 Some of the Big Ten" coaches are wondering If Illinois will miss Burt Ingwerson. who succeeds Howard Jones at Iowa. For years Ingwerson has been trusted lieu tenant of Zuppke and greatly aided in the development of championship teams at Illinois.
 Dave Morrow. former Washington and Jefferson star, will again be back at his old school after several years absence, succeeding Heisman, who goes 10 Rice Institute in Texas.
 Dr. J. B. Sutherland, who played under Glenn Warner at Pittsburgh, coached at Lafayette, will be in charge at Pittsburgh. Sutherland has had a very successful career as coach.
 These changes in the coaching systems in the various sections of the country will make for much re- newed interest in the game.
