FOR MILLING

With a draw to his credit in a
brawl with Pete Sarron, and an
unanimous decision over the fight
ing Joe Fogiletti gained a few
weeks ago, Charley Won Reedon
draws the walloping Varias Mill
ing tomorrow night at Portner's
Arena in the 10-round windup.
Undefeated in three local starts,
Won Reedon made a host of
friends by his punching powers
against Fogiletti. He had the
Italian down twice for counts and
gave him such a thorough going
over that it will be some time be-
fore Mr.. Fogiletti will be in con-
dition to box again.
There were many in the audi
ence on the eventful night of the
Milling-S -Sarron melee who thought
that Varias should have been
awarded the nod over the flashy
Peter. His second show, although
he lost, was just as good as his
first and the fans have been cry
ing for his return.
Billy Landers, rushing Norfolk
blond, goes in the Semi-windup
against Frankie Nour, flyweight
champion of Rumania, and con-
queror of Speedy Dado and Young
Tommy.

DEATH.
SADDENS

PRINCETON, N. j., Dec. II.
Princeton faculty and students
today mourned the death of Bill
Roper, football coach here from
1906 to 1880. His son, William
Roper, jr., is a sophomore at the
university.
"Mr. Rogers death marks
the passing Of a vibrant per-
sOnality," said DIR. Harold
Dodds. "He was a distinguished
coach and his death is deeply
mOurned in Princeton"
His predecessors death was q
distinct shock" to Fritz Crisler,
present head coach.
"He was a leader of inspira-
ton and understanding as well
as teacher and sportsman"
said CriSIer.
DR.. Christian Gauss, dean Of
men at the university, said:
'He radiated energy and
honesty and no one had a more
whitening scOrn for dishonesty,
hypocrisy and lack of sports
manShiE."

CHIEFS DOUBT
OTHER CLUBS
WILL D|CKER
BY GARRETT WATERS

Dy OkANNE L "AAGNO
President Clark Griffith and
Manager Joe Cronin are in Chi
cago today-in Chicago to grab a
player or two if they can swing
trades that will find them bene-
fitting in the exchange.
Also Messrs Griffith and Cronin
are in the Windy City to attend
the annual big league baseball
confabs, which take place to-
morrow, Wednesday and Thurs
day.
To take their version on the
whole thing, Messrs. Griffith and
Cronin are only lending their
presence at the collective ses-
sions because, first, they must be
there, second, they favor several
items to be discussed-the uni
form ball, as a special instance
and thirdly, to possibly transact a
couple Of player trades If the
opportunities present themselves.
Not The Strongest
Their stand on the latter matter
is not the strongest in the world,
so they say, because they be"
lieve they won't be able to talk
any club into a trade which
might be beneficial to both
parties.
They've held these policies be-
fore, nevertheless, and surprisingly
have returned home with an arm.
full of new talent under their re-
spective arms. But it must be
said that they've been very sue
cessful in these past instances.
Yesterday before the pair Of
chieftains departed for Chicago,
in fact, all last week, they ex-
pressed the idea that no irons
were in the fire as far as trades
were concerned.
They admitted, though that
deaf ears wouldn't be turned to
propositions if they arose, which
means they probably will start a
few "leads" themselves for the
purpose of getting the clay of the
land" If these "leads" do not
materialiZe, they, Of course, will be
dropped and the return home will
be made without any excitement
happening.
On the Other Hand
On the other hand, if leads
start something, or other propo-
sitions are offered by brother
clubs, Washington fans may rest
assured one or two new players
! might be added to the 1884 entry
an entry which hopes to cop
the gonfalon again, come the
spring and summer months.
Taking things as they are, the
Griffs as they now line up, could
stand little strengthening here
and there. The pitching depart
ment could use bit of help, while
other outfit elder would
strengthen that department. i'm
measurably.
Maybe so, maybe not, Messrs.
Griffith and Cronin intimated yes
terday on their departure. And
with this secretive policy the pair
left for the meetings, possibly to
get hold of a player-trading situa-
tion, before their scheduled re-
turn here later on in the week.

Hasn't Decided Lineup
Coach Ted O'Leary hasn't de-

MURPHY SEEKS
RETURN Of
TEN PINS
BY DANNY GILL
"Shades of George l.. 1Se-
,Ll Aouo MN hore00

SudUCS OOVA6O -" ASO
mann, what have we here?"
In this town, which thrives on
duckpins and follows the little
ball down the alley with feverish
interest, to speak of ten pins is
tantamount to treason.
One brave soul, however, Fred
Murphy by name, wandered up
to Lucky Strike to watch Miss
Clementine Mosier, of St. Louis,
champion lady ten-pin bowler of
the West, compete against How
ard Campbell in a mixed duckpin-
ten-pin match and moaned the
lack Of ten-pins in Washington.
Can't Get Bit
Somehow or other he couldn' t
get bit by the bug that buzzes
around the local mapleways and
went back to Philadelphia last
year, where he could roll with
that big ball. which did his heart
so much good. In the Quaker
City he had a 191 average for 81
games, while bowling with the
Winters All-Stars. In his spare
moments he also performed with
two other teams.
He was told where he could
find ten pins in town and that
the American Ice League, the last
of it's kind in Washington, broke
up last year. He's sure that there
must be plenty of those men who
would like to bowl again and re-
sumo league play. If such is the
case he would like a berth on one
of the teams and suggests the
alleys put aside their worst night
as night for ten pins and draw
the big pin devotees on those
nights. He can be reached at
Walter Reed postoffice.
Boy Was in Daze
So dead is ten pins in Washing
ton, however, that the pin boy
at the exhibition match at Lucky
Strike was bewildered, and would
often set the pins up after the
first ball, which he always re-
turned right away. General"
Murrell Dawes, assistant floor
manager, who halls from Dayton
Ohio, is another who can do tricks
with the big ball. He had a 1911
average for three leagues there
five years ago, but has now be-
come quite accustomed to the
smaller ball and pin.
Some of our better duckpin eX-
ponents tried a few games at the
conclusion of the exhibition
match, among which were Preston
Ellis and his wife, Evelyn. While
she had a tough time holding the
ten pin ball which was almost as,
big as she, Pres, who has cnly
touched ten pin ball once before.

DUQUESNE. WINS
CHARITY TILT

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Dec. 11.-An-
other triumph of the season was
Elmer Layden'S today after the
new Notre Dame football coach
and athletic director guided his
Duquesne all-star eleven of Pitts
burgh to a to 0 victory here over
the st. Louis all-star football team.
Proceeds of the contest went to
a charitable enterprise, the st
Louis Boys Club.
The lone touchdown came in the
fourth period on a forward pass
from George Benedict to Larry
Sullivan.
Layden substituted his squad
freely during the game.

Good Offers Few
Between those extremes, it's
very hard indeed to get a re-
spectacle offer. It's the old
army game, my friends, the old
army game - something for
nothing, when all hands know
there is no such animal.
No man can tell what devel-
opments will come out of the
winter sessions of the baseball
behemoths, for the simple rea-
son the moguls don't know
themselves.
It's anybody's guess, and here
are a few speculative state
ments, but by no means pre-
dictions:
It looks like Dave Harris,
Johnny Kerr, Goose Goslin,
Alphonse Thomas, Bobby Burke,
and Moe Berg could be had
by some ambitious club if dou-
BILE collateral could be pro-
duced for one or all of them
in the way of pitching and hit
ting strength, particularly the
latter. If you recall, it was our
weak hitting that cost us the
championship of the world some
nine or 10 weeks ago. Hits al
ways did mean runs in our
copybook.
The PhiIs Are Afire
It looks like Burt Shotton,
whose contract has two more
years to run with the Phillies,
will be the 1884 manager of the
Cincinnati Reds, viz. DOME
Bush.
It is known that President
Gerald P. Nugent and Shotton
are out of accord in their base
ball views and policies and the
little matter of the contract
can easily be adjusted where
there are two dissatisfied par
ties. It would not be the first
time that has been done in
baseball. Walter johnson and
