POOLE IS FACING HOT
 FIGHT TO KEEP POST
But Belief Is That International League President VIII Be
 Retained

| New York. Dee. Rt-John Con-
 way Toole, for five years president
 of the International Baseball league,
 is in line for another term of the
 same duration when the circuit con
 venes in annual meeting today the
 first of a series of baseball gather- 'ings here that will consume the greater part of the week.
 Toole has opposition and there is
 much speculation as to his prospec- tice successor, if there be such n per son. There have been rumors that
 the major leagues have entered into | a determined fight 10 dispose the in- lternatonal head because of his stand on the draft.
 After the Internationars conclave the major leagues will gather, the 1 National on Tuesday. the American
 on Wednesday, and the joint session
 on Thursday. There appears 10 be | little out of the routine for the ma
 jors to act upon except perhaps the matter of shorter schedule, or rather, perhaps, q shorter season. On many sides it is contended that unless the season is shortene tho next worlds series will have to be played in Florida. At the last one of the throngs of 'mere lookers-on would have been caked with ice had not the cold in Washington come be- fore the rain in Pittsburgh.
 A special meeting of the Eastern league has been thrown into the weeks proceedings to keep the mag. mates on their toes.

GRANGE MAKES MONEY
Former Illinois Flash Is Reported 10 Have Made $S2 1000 In il Days May Quit Ice Business.

New York, Dec. z F --- Red Grange, football flash, is making headWay in his demonstration that 1.-two feet can cover several yards when properly placed. His earnings in II days are estimated at $S2,000 Grunge must share with his mana ger and the income tax collectors, but the money heaps are mounting and soon he may be able 10 re- nounce the ice industry for good and all.
 Attendance figures, sometimes de- ceiving, indicate that he averages about $1G,400 game, or around s4T0 yard. He has performed professionally before 100000 per sons, contributing 10 four victories for the Chicago Bears in five starts
 Estimates place his earnings in Philadelphia Saturday at $2o,000 and in New York yesterday at ESQ., 1000. At the Polo Grounds he aided materially in his teams 19 to vic- tory over the New York Giants by paving the way for a touchdown in the first period by throwing long pass and intercepting a New York pass in the final quarter to run 26 yards for q score.

THINKS SELECTING
 ALL TEAMS IS BAD
Hall Believes It Prevents
 Teamwork

New York, Dec. 7 R-Football followers today were still arguing about the bolt that Edward K. Hall, chairman of the intercollegiate foot ball rules committee, cast into the first banquet of players selected for American honors Saturday night.
 ''I say, with all the earnestness that is in me. that l hope this is the last dinner 10 an all-American team that will ever be held in America" |" were the words comprising the bolt.
 He argued against emphasis of the importance of individual players by the selection of "alr' teams and the making of heroes of those who happened to fall into fumbles and run G5 yards for touchdowns. Then he launched in Q discussion of pro- fcssional football, which has become an important topic, especially since the Illinois star, Red Grange, left college to play with the Chicago Bears.
 'I want to make clear that 1t is none of my business" he said, Eff any college player considers that it is in his interest that he gets through with his college course to start playing professional football. l also want 10 make this clear-1 have no quarrel with promoters of professional football so long as they are recruiting their men from non- college players. What do object to, and what l believe is more or less a menace to the game, and certainly a menace to some of the players, is the way some promoters of profess sional football are trying to ure the college players into the show game. and make them think 1t is in their best interests when it is against their best interests.
 "The promoter knows that he can not give those boys a permanent job or q permanent livelihood, or per manont career, but he tries 10 cover that up with big money that is com ing quick and easy. And I know that there are very few men in the world that can stand easy money and quick money, and one of the worst places for boy 10 get it is the first time he goes to work be- cause it will give him false ideals, false standards and not one in 70 men can stand 1t and come through"

CLUB PROGRAMMES TO

Boys Club Lineup Revised Again Think That Right Combination
 Has Been Found at Last

Hoping that the right combination
 has been found at last tho Boys club | will take the floor tonight against the Bristol Ccltlcs in an effort to Iatone for last weeks defeat at the hands of the husky Willimantic West Ends. The team has been reorganized again, and Coach Ray Anderson as- serts that he believes he has hit upon the team which will develop. It Is a lighter team than in the early games,
 but 1t should have more speed.
 Jake "Hoggo' Parparian. following in the tracks of Henry kraszewski,
 has moved up from the Reservese and will probably start at left for
 ward tonight with Henry alternating for him. These two are a pair of light but fast youngsters who should plug the forward gap very well until
 Pete kerelejzas knee mends enough 10 permit him to return. Nick Gill will again be at the other forward corner, while Gotowala and Silva, with Swanson in reserve, will be the guards. Captain John Kley has been IreIieved of the pivot position because
 of charley horse and an unfortu- nate mental state brought on by the
 razzing of the fans last week, Had the crowd backed him up, it is thought he would have been q whirl- wind, but he fell down in the face
 of innumerabe jeers. Joe Goffa will do the jumping tonight.
 The preliminary game will be be- tween the Boys Club Reserves and the Elihu Burritt junior high school. The big game will be followed by dancing, music being furnished by Jim Weir's Imperial Club orchestra.

WESTERN CONFER.
 SCHEDULE PLANS
Shift in Match Games Being
 Urged

Chicago, Dec. (A0 -- The West
 crn conference may not carry out it's projected experiment of four
 football teams playing two games with the same foes next fall. A arrangement may be made
 whereby Minnesota and Michigan i and Northwestern and Indiana, i carded for double headers in the schedules as fixed here Saturday. may meet only once. Return games have not been played by conference teams since the 90's.
 Dr. Clarence W. Spears, Minne- sota coach, and Fred W. Luehring. athletic director, have suggested that Northwestern, holding the key to the situation, make a change of opponents October 1s and meet | Michigan in Ann Arbor instead of Indiana in Chicago. Kenneth Will son. athletic director, and Glenn Thistlethwaite, head coach of Northwestern. have agreed to con- sider the suggestion.
 If Northwestern consents to play Michigan, Minnesota will change its date with Notre Dame from Octo- ber 23 10 October 9, making it pos- siblc for Northwestern to card Notre Dame for October 23. Minnc- sota also will place Indiana back on it's schedule for October 16, thereby making it possible for Northwestern and Indiana 10 meet in only one game in Bloomington, October 30.
 The chief objections of Wilson and Thistlewhitc to this plan is that they are eager to play Indiana in Chicago, October 15," said Luehring in Minneapolis last night, "because Chicago will be playing Pennsylvania at Philadelphia on that date, leaving the Chicago field clear to the purple and hoosier teams.
 If Spears plan is carried out Minnesota will play Notre Dame, October g: Indiana. October 16, and Michigan November %, all in Min nepois, Yost is anxious to play Northwestern at Ann Arbor. Yost also lis anxious 10 keep Northwestern on his schedule in 1926 to gain revenge for the defeat handed Michigan by Northwestern this season."
 The schedule meeting her and at tendant conferences of athletic direc- tors were among the best in the con- ference's history. In the belief of Major John l.. Griffith's big ten ath- letic commissioner.
 Outstanding among the rulings de- termined were those limiting football practice 10 two hours, elimination of moving pictures by scouts, the four game conference schedule plan and the turning over to the athletic di- rectors the details of track meetings.

The second game proved a hum mer with King Tuts' Tutcos on the long end of a grueling battle with the Mohawks. Chief Larson appear Ing in war-paint in the Mohawks ranks threw scare into the Tutcos team for every time the Chief got his fingers on the ball three or four Tutcos swarmed around him like maddened hornets but the big Indian shook them off good naturedy or slyly encouraged them to commit fouls. Sose one has said that "Goody" Preisser and the Big Chief" are regular old foxes at the game with bag full of tricks that are regular tcasers.
