FORGED TO BE IDLE
Jack Sharkey Tied to Contract With Humbert Fugazy Who Has No IudOOr Arena,

New York, Nov. 12 LP-All sign-
 cd up and no place to go appears to be the situation of Jack Sharkey, conqueror of Harry Wills.
 In a splash of gratitude for the
 opportunity Humbert J. Fugazy gave
 him to reach the pugilistic summit
 through the medium of the Wills fight, Sharkey entered into an agree
 ment binding him to box for the Brooklyn promoter this winter. Flu
 gay. however, has been unable to obtain an indoor arena thus far.
 The Boston heavyweight, conse- quently, finds himself tied to a con- tract which, for the time being, ap-
 pears useless. After a conference with Fugazy. yesterday, Johnny Buckley, manager of Sharkey. said he would present his problem to the New York State Athletic commission. If he can break the Fugazy agreement. he indicated
 he would accept an offer from Tex Rickard to match Sharkey against Paul Berlenbach. former light heavyweight champion.

However, the acquisition of the big blonde veter- an, who has performed with such clubs at the Hartford Kaceys, Wet Sides If Hartford and All-Middle- town during the past few years, should greatly strengthen the club.

Manager Carroll is endeayoring to arrange games with the leading combinations in this section and Is confident that his charges will again successfully defend the title which they won during the past year.

Even the most rabid critic of the All-New Britain football team man. agement has to admit today that the road of the club this year has been very, very rocky one. With all the other disappointments of the year heaped on one another, the announcement came yesterday that the Brooklyn Horsemen died a na- tural death and therefore would be unable to play New Britain next Sunday.

Jones stands firm in the face of criticism which, coming on the verge of the important games, seems illtimed. He has always been handi- capped by alumni who seek jus tice' every time they lose a bet on their alma mater but he seems bound to stick it out where others before him failed. The attacks on the coach may weaken the already none-too-h high morale of the team, but it is to be hoped that the play CTS will be driven together by the criticism and will emerge from the acid bath compact, determined, and inspired team with an uncon- querahle urge to atone for its past defeats and confute its critics. With two weeks of rest to put the men in shape physically, Yale may be depended upon to give Princeton a battle, although it cannot be denied that the Tiger ranks prime fav- orite.

Ed. Daley broke all speed rec ords in trying to get a game yester- day and at the time of this writing, tbe best he could offer was that he would have q definite answer from Springfield by noon today. It may be that We will have an announce ment of game at Memorial Field Sunday before the sun sinks tonight.

The professional football season in this city has been d dismal failure all around this year. First it was the weather. Then came the blow up of the New Britain Hartford Blues series. Now the disbanding of the Brooklyn team.
 The blow that came yesterday would have been softened somewhat had it came early in the week. At that time, Manager Daley could have signed to go to Atlantic City this coming Sunday. Both the man. agement there and the Brooklyn man were after New Britain for this Sunday. The inducements and ar guments offered by Manager Me- Medley of Brooklyn persuaded Man ager Daley to accept his offer, but as events transpired, it was q poor choice

Editorially, the 'Lampoon" said that the Princeton game always was a fight and there never was any good feeling between the universi- ties. The "Rrincetonian" published an article hoping that the Lam poon" did not express the feelings of all Harvard, and it is safe to say that it didn't.

battle, although it cannot be denied that the Tiger ranks a prime fav- orite.
 In regard to the Harvard Prince- ton break, we have just received a letter from a Harvard undergradu- ate giving Us numerous sidelights on the incidents leading to the sever ance of relations, The whole affair savors of opera bouffe and seems to have been caused by thoughtless editors who thought they were fun ny. not by the college bodies as a whole. The very clean play of Sat urday's game evidenced that there was no hard feeling between the teams or colleges.
 Harvard, according to our corre- spondent, found itself in a muddle when 1t tried to ditch Princeton for Michigan and then replaced Michi- gan by Indiana. A Michigan paper printed a statement that Harvard was uOlIS "lScly III llllS ldSl, dS Michigan had beaten Indiana by 63-o. Princeton added to the insult by thanking Harvard for remaining on its schedule, as the Tiger has won from the Crimson by 70-O in the last two years.
 These insults must be avenged, editors of the Harvard 'Lampoon" figured so they printed a Prince ton game number containing slams at both colleges. An example: Michigan states editorially that 1t has much in common with Prince ton Why break up the Big Two and 9 Half if we cannot get better half? It is not a question of sub stitute for Princeton but an anti dote."

Lunch Davidson charged here today

Lad assisted THE Standard Oil COM
pany in taking 25,OOo,000 out of
Texas in the last few weeks" He
referred To the gasoline price adj
vance, which he said was the result
of the combination Of big OIL comm
panies which he charged was made
possible BY the governors signature
to a bill passed by tie last legisla-
ture.
The Houston man addressed resi-
dents from all parts Of Washington
county on the courthouse square
here today. and left this afternoon
for Hampstead where he spoke to-
night.
when the Standard Oil company
of Texas are already paying 40 per
cent dividends the gasoline advance
is a direct holdup.' he charged.
"They can juggle statistics all they
please to show that the advance IS
justified but the enormous and in
creasing profits and the advancing
value Of Standard Oil stock shows
too plainly where's our money goes.
He referred TO the statement OF
G. NJ. Protor. president of the Dal-
las county independent station as
sociation, who said Friday that the
uncontrolled" gasoline dealers ex-
pect gasoline to 60 to % or 30 cents
gallon il action j. not taken 70
save the independent dealers.
"This would mean anther five or
fifty million dollars lifted from the
pockets of Texas gasoline users into
those Of the Standard 70 swell that
40 percent profit to so or so per
cent" he said. "The worst is yet to
come. for when the Standard gets
its grip firmly on the state in the
years to come and has finally wiped
out every remnant of competition,
nothing can shake il loose.
while this is transpiring my
leading opponents, Ferguson and
Moody, make faces at each other,
call each other names. and say
nothing about the big issues which
every Texan should discuss and
study"
