DARTMOUTH SHOWS
WEAKNESS AGAINST
CORNELL PLAYS

New York, Nov. 4.-(AP)-Corn-
ellis stock took an appreciate jump
today in the weighing of the ithaca
eleven's chances against Dartmouth
in the battle of these powerful ana
undefeated eastern championship
contenders on Saturday. First at
tempts Of the Big Green teams de-
Tense to stop Cornell plays as put
on by the scrubs have failed. Great
gaps were torn in the Dartmouth
line yesterday by the off-tackle
smashes of Reece, McAvoy and Star
rett, second team backs although
the varsity was without Art Smith,
regular guard, and Sage, END, both
of whom are recovering from In
juries.
Two Cornell changes have sent
Wester to quarter, where he played
prior to injuries two weeks ago, and
Trefts from the second to first back
field, replacing Pratt, regular right
half since the opening of the sea-
son.
Harvard coaches have not yet de-
cided upon the lineup which Will
start against Princeton. ZarakoV,
Cheek, Maher and Miller were in
the backfield yesterday but Coady
and Crosby have not yet been count
ed out. There is also still doubt as
to whether Saltonstall, injured end,
will be able to start, while the
coaches are still trying both c..
Bradford and Trip at right guard.
Slagle to Dignan, will be Princeton's
forward passing combination against
Harvard, it was indicated during a
long Princeton workout in which
these two backs collaborated repeat
eddy in completing aerials. The first
teams only touchdown against the
scrubs was the result of such a toss.
New ends have appeared at the
varsity wings in the first shake-up
resulting from Navy's disastrous de-
feat at the hands of Michigan, Will
hanson and Taylor replacing Hard
wick and Bernet, but Army coaches
appear satisfied with the team which
suffered defeat at the hands of Yale
and began work for the Columbia
game with the same lineup that OPP
posed the Bulldog.
Columbia, facing New York Uni
versity before the Cadets are op-
posed Nov. IA, is, getting down to
hard training after a three-day rest,
while Fordham, preparing for the
Holy Cross game here, has been
cheered by the return to the squad
of four stars injured in last Satur-
days play.
Pennsylvania regulars have not
yet recovered from the shock of
their defeat at the hands of Grange
and Illinois. Second and third team
players will be used Saturday against
Haverford. This lull in the sched-
ule of the Quaker team turned at
tention to Penn States vigorous
drilling to build a stone-wall de-
tense against the invasion of Notre
Dame, Saturday.
Boston College and Syracuse speed

Dempsey-Wills Bout
May Never Be Staged,
Word Champs Adviser

Los Angeles, Nov. 4.-(AP)-Pu-
gilistic prophets of gloom, who for
months persistently declined to be-
lieve Floyd Fitzsimmons really could
put over a Jack Dempsey-Harry
Wills title bout in 1926, even after
articles were signed, opened their
ranks today to receive brother pes
simist in the person of Rob Roy
Benton, press agent and counsellor
of the heavyweight champion.
Benton last night announced he
was quitting the Dempsey camp
rather than be a party to what he
declared was an impending invalida-
ton of the Fitzsimmons contract.
Just how 1t is to be invalidated
Benton admitted he was not at pres
ent ready to reveal.
Benton vigorously denied reports
he had been discharged by Dempsey
and said he had not yet received a
reply to the telegram he sent the
champion In Mexico, yesterday, ask
ing to be released from his contract
as publicity man and counsellor. He
said he explained to Dempsey that
he wanted to get out before a
thunderbolt falls"
A small fortune in advance money
has been put up by Fitzsimmons to
insure the fight. Paddy Mullins,
manager for Wills, has been paid
$4,000 cash and holds note for
another $4,000 payable in three
weeks. Notes aggregating another
100000 await Dempsey upon his re-
turn from Mexico.
Fltzsimmons was in Los Angeles
last night but could not be reached
for comment.

Gertrude Ederle. queen of Ameri-
can mermaids and Aileen Riggin,

The departure of this pair will

Miss Riggin was at her best in div

maids to turn in her amateur card
Then came Helen Wainwrig II. S. Sn-

amateur last June at time when the
Womens association was planning for
her to accompany Gertrude Ederle to

JACKS PRESS
AGENT HOWLS BOUT
WITH Wills PH0NY

New York, Nov. 4.-(AP)-The
Dempsey-WillS agreement lot
championship battle in Indiana next
wear. engineered by Floyd F1tzslm-
mons and a South Bend syndicate
but regarded with skepticism in hstlc
circles ever since it was drawn up.
Jumped back into the limelight to-
day.
In Los Angeles Rob Roy Benton.
Dempsey's press agent. announced
he was quitting the Dempsey camp
rather than be party to what ne
declared was an impending fnVallda-
ton of the Fitzsimmon contract,
but there were haSty denials to TINS
from Ray Cannon, Milwaukee at
torney for Dempsey. as well as An
drew C. Weisburg. head of the South
Bend syndicate.
Cannon was quoted as saying 1.-THE
Dempsey-Wills bout under the dl-
rection of Floyd Fitzsimmons will
take place If FitZsimmons lives up
to the letter of his contract with
Dempsey" while Weisburg scoffed at
the idea the proposed bout would
fall through, revealing at the same
time that Dempsey lis guaranteed a
cool million for swapping punches
with his negro challenger.
Benton further asserted that the
present contract would be invali-
dated in order to give Jack Kearns
a chance to manage at least two
more Dempsey fights before his con-
tract with the title holder expires
next September, adding his belief
that Cannon was now representing
both Dempsey and Kearns.
This also met with denial from
Cannon.
Meanwhile Tex Richard professed
to see signs of a reconciliation be-
tween Dempsey and Kearns which
would enable the New York promot-
er to stage the big title battle in the
metropolitan district.
Disclosure that Paddy Mullins,
manager of Wills, already has re-
ceived $50, 900 from the Indiana syn
dictate and is to receive $4,000 more
some time before the bout, came as
a surprise here. Benton's statement
to this effect was confirmed in South
Bend by Weisburg, although Mullins
had said here he received only So
600 as sllis advance guarantee.

Maine GRIDMEN
IN HARD TRAINING
FOR POLAR BEAR
Especial to Kennebcc Journal)

Especial to kennebeC Journal
University of Maine, Nov. o.-Get
Bowdoin, is the battle cry at the
University this week. The team
came out of the Colby game without
a single injury and are being driven
hard for the war with the White
Bear Saturday. Coaches Brlce ana
Murphy feel that even Bowdoin has
been beat by Colby and Bates that
game will be the hardest one Maine
has played in it's climb for cham
pionship.
The putting of Newhall on the
line has made a great deal OF dill
ference and the passing game oil
Maine is much stronger than prev
ious to this change. There is still
a royal battle for the other end po-
sition with Nanigan and Stanton
holding the lead. Stanton's poor leg
is fast getting into shape and the
pace that he is setting now may
place him in the starting line up.
The largest crowd ever to witness
a football game at Orono are ex-
pected to be on hand this Saturday.
The field now looks like bowl with
bleachers on three sides and the
Crandstand on the fourth.

All American Team
Will Lack Usual Rep
Since Death of Camp

Chicago, Nov. 4.-(AP)-Who
, shall select this years all-Anerican
football team to replace that OF the
late Walter Camp, is a question be-
ing agitated here.
1t is admitted that there are a
dozen well qualified critics, who will
supply lists. But none will have be-
hind them the tradition and more
or less recognized authority Of the
Camp selections.
The Chicago Herald and Examiner
today makes two suggestions edi-
torially. One is that the all-Ameri-

new group each year. The news
paper calls the plan interesting but
cumbersome.
The other suggestion advances

InterschOlastics
Will Be Run Off
Waterville Saturday

Especial to the kennebec JournaD
Waterville, Maine, Nov. 4.-The
Maine Interscholastic Cross Country
Championship will be held on Sat
urday at Colby over the schoolboy
course. The short course measures
three miles and this is considered
to be long enough for the high and
preparatory school boys to cover.
This will be the fourth meet Of its
kind to be held at Waterville. The
meet is in charge of Coach Michael
]. Ryan, and, although he is at
present in Auburn due to illness in
his family, he will return for the
race this week.
The number of entries at the pres
ent time Is uncertain because of the
absence of the coach but Lee Acad-
envy. last years winner will be here
to repeat. Coburn and Waterville
High will also send teams and the
rivalry between the two schools will
be very keen. Coburn has one of
the best teams in the history of the
sport at that school and the men
have received a lot of competition
this season. Waterville High held
it's final trials over the Colby course
strong contenders for the title. Lee
will have to bring an unusually fine
team to pull out a win over either
of the local schools.
The remaining teams to compete
will not be determined until Coach
Ryan returns which may not be I'M
til Saturday. In all probability most
of the schools which sent teams last
year and the year before will be
represented. OF these Edward Little
High of Auburn Is one of the strong
est and they have made an enviablc
record at Wateryille. For the first
two years of the meet they ran
away with the laurels and last sea-
son finished a close second to the
team from Lee Academy. Scarboro
High will probably send a team and
has always been dangerous oppo-
nent.
The race will be run under the
rules of the Maine intercollegiate
track and field association. Seven
OF the twelve men which each school
Is allowed to enter may start the
race. Only five of these will count
In the hnal score although the sixth
and seventh men will be scored but
their positions will not be considered
in the final team score.
The course covers roads, hills, and
a long level field will be met in two
different places. The hardest part
of the course is on Sand Pit Hill,
about one mile from the start and
it Is here that the superiority of a
team is shown. Handsome trophies
will be awarded to the teams which
finish in the first three places.

FOR maine GAME

Especial to the Kennebec JournaD
Brunswick, Me-. Nov. Aim Berry
the veteran guard on the Bowdoin
college football squad, was this az
ternoon shifted to left tackle, ana
Alexander, first string substitute,
took his position at guard. Berry
replaced RED" Robinson at tackle,
the versatile baseball and football
star being again shifted to left end,
where he played part of the game
against Bates. On the opposite end
Blizzard Snow looked after the in
reference, while Hovey, at quar-
ter, Harrington and Olmstead at half
and Morrell at full, were in the
backfield. Assistant coach Nal oMr-
rell this evening stated that it .'ould
be impossible for Joe Kohler, the
half back injured two weeks ago, to
get his leg in condition to play
against Maine Saturday and that he
considers it doubtful IL the Massa-
chusetts star can get in condition to
play in the Tufts game.
