The greatest combination globe

of athletes who can and VIII STOP

LEGAL bone-breaker within his ken.

Ira Mckee and Roy Mackert are

If Red can reach the line OF

HAGENLACHER'S PROTEST
KILLS CUE TITLE MATCH

NEW YORK, Dec. Sit .deVel'
oped today that the sanction of the
six international stars who took
part In the 1872 balk line billiard
championship last year was neces'
sary before Edouard Horemans and
Jake Schaefer, the new and de-
throned champions respectively,
could play a return match for the
title next month.
This was taken to mean here that
the match would have to be aban'
doned as Erich Hagenlacher, OF
Germany, has entered a protest
against the match, claiming that
his prior challenge entities him to
the next shot at the title.
HOremans, Schaefer and Willie
Hoppe already have signed the
agreement, it is said, while replies
are awaited from Welker Cochran
and Kamekichi Suzuki, of Japan.
However, since a unanimous agree
ment is necessary, Habenlacher' s
protest already Is believed to have
killed the return match.

Dog in Manger
Spirit Marks
Mercury
Team

Making its last stand in defense
of the Independent football cham
pionship it won a year ago, the
Mercury Athletic Club will meet
its greatest rival, the Mohawk
eleven, tomorrow at the Clark
Griffith Stadium, the clash coming
at 3 o'clock.
Beaten several weeks ago by the
brilliant young Apaches, who later
were whipped by the Mhowaks, all
that Mercury can hope for now is
to create a three-cornered dead
lock for the title and retain at
least a vestige of its laurel.
It's aim tomorrow will be to pre-
vent the Mohawks from gaining
undisputed possession Of the cham
pionship. Rivalry born OF TOUR
wears of spirited conflict has caused
a dog-in-the-manger attitude in Mer-
cury's ranks. If Mercury cannot
win the title, then neither shall the
Mohawks. That. apparently, Is
predominating thought south or the
avenue.
And ii was in the same spirit
that the Mahawks encountered Mer-
cury when the 1924 championship
was at stake. Whipped by the
Geonicks, who In turn were smoth-
cred by Mercury, the Mohawks all
but thwarted Mercury's title cam
paigr by holding the Winged Foot
team to a scoreless tie.
Any comparison Of this years
records would make the Mohawk
team an obvious favOrite, but the
~ al
Mercury lineup sparkles with for
mer college stars and players who
stand out because Of their sand
Tot records, but Il Is q question
asj to how well they can play as
q team.
In the Mercury backfield win be
found DeGassis and Breslin, ex-
varsity men Of Georgetown Uni
verSity. On one end will be Wig
gle King and in q guard position,
Nick Busch, both former George
town stars.
Harry Harris, who made his mark
in football at West Virginia, once
beating the Navy with an 80-yard
run for a touchdown, will be in
the Mercury backfield, as viii
be George Beyers, one OF the
greatest OF sandlot ball carriers.
There are other notable per-
formers that sport the Winged
Foot insignia, but all likely will
be matched i'm an individual way
by the MOhawlxs.
Mercury will be particularly
strong on the TANKS, with King and
Joe Ganey strutting there. Ganey
Ii somewhat Of a monarch among
sandlot ends. Mercury and Mo.
hawk have never played q game
in which he was not an outstanding
figure.
There are some who contend
that the Mohawks should win de-
cisively. If that happened Il would
be the first clash between these
colorful football rivals that wasn't
a wild battle to the last whistle.
