BEARS ARE RATED GAME FAVORITES
California Expected to Defeat
 Pennsylvania Tomorrow

Philadelphia, Oct IS UP)- Making it's first appearance in the east, the University of California football team was rated a 3 to 1 favorite over Pennsylvania today in being on Saturdays great intersec- tional game at Franklin field.
 The east has seen some famous far western football teams come on for these encounters, and never has a western contender gone away de- teated.
 A tradition has grown up, nat urally enough, that teams from the Pacific coast know too much foot ball for their eastern rivals, and certainly Penn has shown nothing during the 1929 season to justify belief that the Golden Bears can be stopped.
 The presence Of Roy Riegels. cap tain of the California team, in the lineup tomorrow, is bound to at tract the attention of gridiron fans. This youngstcr is one of the best linesmen in the country. In addi- tion, he is the boy who ran the wrong way in the now famous Tournament of Roses" game against Georgia Tech last New Years day.
 If ever youngster showed "guts," it was this same Roy Rie- gels who survived the most unmer- ciful razzing any college boy ever had to take and came back 10 lead his team into action during the current season.
 When the subject of that fatal run is brought up, as it so frequent ly is, Roy's only remark is:
 "W"ll say what you like. but l still think l was running the right way"
 If you recall the game, he wasn't. He was scooting for all he was worth towards his own goal line, and only was brought down by fortuitous tackle a yard or so short of the last chalk-linc,
 But for all that, young MT. Rie. gels should go on record as one of the best and one of the gamest football players ever broguht to our attention.
 Roy is not bragging about his teams chances tomorrow, but the idea abroad is that California will beat Penn by two touchdowns.
 This is season of upsets, as what season is not, and if the Uni versity of Pennsylvania decides to beat California, it will not be the occasion for heart failure on any ones part.
 The Golden Bears were a bit de- pressed today by the loss of their | fullback, who goes by the pie | turcsque name of Clarence Garrity Without Garrity. they have only nine or 1O running backs capable of piercing or skirting the Penn 1 line.
 Roy Riegcls. making his first and 1 last appearance in the east, prob ably will punch enough holes in the Red and Blue line 10 permit the entry of a Mack truck. And if not there will be Benny Lom, already rated as potential All-America ! baCkfeld man, ready to step in and 1 through.
 1 There is no reason for the Cali fornians to be apprehensive; every thing points to victory.

Arthur Kid Williams, leading scorer in the American Roller Hockey League, for the past few seasons and one of the greatest play CTS the game has ever known, has written to Manager Frank McDon- ough of the New Britain team in reply to a letter sent him, stating that he is heartily pleased to know that he will again be with the New Britain team in the league.
 Writing from Henry, III, his home, Williams stated that he had been on a business trip to St. I ouis for several weeks and consequently had not received Manager McDon- ough's letter telling him of the plans for the coming season. Upon reading it, he hastencd to reply say ing that he is in excellent shape and pilot to write immediately to let him know what the league prospects for this year were. who is expected to be on the New Britain team and all other data in connection with ! the game.
 Williams expressed his pleasure at | the thoughts Of returning to New l Britain to renew the friendships he made here last year. The entire 1 tone Of his letter cXuded eagerncss and gladness that he was 10 be here 1 again this year This absolutely and unequivocally dispcls any rumors that have gone before that Williams would not return to New Britain | this season.
 l The league managers will meet to- | night in Hartford to reach a dcfin- l lte decision with regard to the ad- mission of three new teams into the league. namely Brooklyn, New York i and Newark. Without doubt, fol- i lowing an inspection of the various rinks mentioned during the past
 week, the three teams will be given franchises in the league and will be 1 counted in the schedule.
 Players will Dc discussed tonight ana although Manager McDOnOugh hasn't definitely decided on his line up, he will have Barney Doherty and | Williams and Ed McAloon, Jr. Man ager McDonough's decision to use the chip off the old block in the Me Aloon family should prove to be one
 of the most popular moves of the present season.
 Reports from Doherty's section
 have sifted down this way and they
 are to the effect that Barney is as
 good as he ever was. If he was only
 half as good now as he was last sea-
 son. he would still run anyone a good race for the title of best half
 back in the league. Manager Mc- l Donough hasn't heard from Barney personally yet, but he expects to get
 in touch with him within the next
 few days.

New Britain herald., 1929-10-18

New York, Oct. IS (Pl-Uncondi- tionally released by the club two years ago, Bob Shawkcy, the eX- sailor, has been named manager of the New York Yankees, loadcrl,ss since the death three weeks ago of Miller J, Huggins.
 A great ght-handed pitcher in his day, coach of the Yankees dur ing the past season, ShaWkcy never had had any managerial experience. He signed a one-year contract to manage the club several days ago but announcement was withheld by Colonel Jacob Ruppert, club president, until yesterday. Shawlley now is in Quebec on a hunting trip. Shawkey's selection surprised the experts who had expected either Arthur Fletcher, Yankee coach, or Bob Connery, president of the St. Paul club of the American associa- ton, would be named to the post It turned out that Fletcher had been offered the job but had de-
 
 not want to manage the Yankees or any other club.
 The offer then was made to and accepted by Sha<,Scy. Fletcher will continue to. coach the team. Col. Ruppert said the new man. ager had been selected solely on the basis of advice given some time ago by Huggins. Some five years ago, Col. Ruppert said, he and Huggins mad discussed a possible successor to Euggins in the event of his re- tirement or disability. Huggins recommended Fletcher, then man. agcr of the Philadelphia Nationals, and Fletcher later came to the club as coach with the idea of club of fcials that he would carry on should 1Iuggins have to quit.
 After Shawkcy's days as an ac- ! tive player were over, Huggins ad- yised his addition to the payroll as a coach, especially of pitchers. Bob the gob" was Huggins' second choice as his successor.
 | Shawkcy was born in Brookfeld, ! Pa, December i. 1890. He began | his professional baseball career vii. | the Harrisburg club of the old Tri- | State league in 1911, came up to l the Philadelphia Athletics the fol i lowing year but was optioned to | Baltimore for that year and most | of the next. He rcjoined the As in 1913 and then was traded to the | New York Yankees in 1915 for Jack Warhop, E. rottrell and a si2oable amount of cash. He re- maincd with the Yankees through the season of 1927 He pitched in | five worlds series, one, in 1914 with the Athletics and four with the Yankees.
 He was unconditionally released in November, 1927, and went 10 the Montreal club of the International league as pitcher and coach He i came back 10 the Yankees as coach at the start of the season just ! closed
