 to Newark or Chicago

 At Boston, Owner Bob Quinn re- portedly is studying @ long list of candidates for the job left open when Bill McKechnie signed as manager of the Cincinnati Reds. Bob Coleman, manager of the Bee Scranton farm in the N. Y.-Penn league, reportedly has the inside track,

Irish Free State Names Team For National Show

The Irish Free State Army has named Captain John J. Lewis, It. George M. Keffernan, Captain Fred A. Aherne, and It. James F. Neylon to the jumping team which will coln- pete in the eight nights of inter- national military jumping contests at the National Horse Show in Mad- ison Square Garden Nov. 3 to 10, it was announced today by J. Spencer Weed, president of the National.
 The team will sail from Ireland on Saturday (Oct. 23rd on the s, s. Manhattan, arriving in New York on October 28.
 This will mark the ninth colise- cutive year that the Irish have competed at the National and the team is counted upon to make 8 for- midable Dir to regain the champion ship jumping honors 1t won in 1885 Last year the Irish finished second in the International Military Chal- lenge Trophy competition.
 Standout
 Captain Aherne is one of the out- standing riders ever to compete in the National. Mounted on his crack jumper GallowglaSs, he has been one of the main threats in the nightly international military jumping con- tests that feature the show. During the years that he has been compete ing at the National, he has won nearly. every important military trophy offered by the National Horse Show Association. He was @ member of the team which won the Perpet- ual International Military Challenge trophy in 1885. In 1883, mounted on Gallowglass, he won the individ- ual military jumping championship of the show and placed second the following year. GallowglaSs and Capt. Aherne again led them all when they won the coveted Bowman Challenge cup in one of the most spectacular jumping contests of the 1885 show. Last year in the same event Gallowglass was defeated only by the crack French jumper Amidon, ridden by Captain Pierre Clave.
 Captain Lewis was member of the winning team in 1885 and com peted successfully again last year.
 It. Neylon is making his second appearance in the Garden, while It. Kefferman is on his first trip here. However, the two men have made an enviable record at European shows this past summer.

LARRY KELLEY SIGNS AS PAID
 FOOTBALLER
Record Salary Believed Coming From Boston
 ShanlrOckS

Boston, Oct. 21-(UP)-Loqua- cious Larry Kelley, Yale's 1886 All- America end and captain who vowed he never would turn pro, was count ed on today to pull Boston profes- sional football out of the doldrums after signing with the Shamrocks.
 Though they won the title last season, the local American profes- sional football league entry saw its patronage drop considerably this year with the result that the Sham rocks, who wear blazing green uni- forms, were in the red--f1nancially Nice Arrangement
 In @ surprise move, Kelly yester- day signed to play the remainder ot the home games with the Sham rocks. He will not practice with the team, but will commute here by plane each Saturday night from Hightstown, N. J., where he is coach- ing the Peedie Prep school team. All his practicing will be done by re- mote control-via charts and dia- grams of plays.
 The fact that the famed Eli op- portunist earlier in the season turned down a reported $12000 offer from the Detroit Lions prompted observ- CTS to believe that he would draw down a record salary with the Shamrocks who have lost consistent ly this year. Terms were not re- vealed.
 The great Kelley will make his pro debut at left end Sunday against the Pittsburgh Americans. Only a month ago, Kelley played against his new teammates as a member of an all-star collegiate aggregation.

STRONGER LINE, GOOD PASSER, IS NEEDED BY GEMS
Quincy Manets Figured to Give Naugy Club Its
 Best Game Sunday

Many glaring faults and a few minor weaknesses were uncovered in the Naugatuck Gems game Sum- day against Stamford and steps have already been taken to correct them in order to give to the specta- tors the type of football they wish. The team that took the field at the start for the Gems, in the opinion of the coaches, is not strong enough to turn back such opponents as the Quincy Manets, the Providence Steam Rollers, the West Ends or the Danbury club. The line must be bols- etered and a passing back must be signed before Sundays game or the Gems wil find themselves on the short end of the score.
 Strong Foes
 l. To scehdule 8 game this Sunday it was necessary to go into the Bay State where the teams are much stronger in order to give the fans of the borough an exhibition that will be satisfying There is no doubt that the Manets who are conSid- cred on a par with the Steam Roll CTS will provide plenty of opposition for the locals, Sunday.
 In the three games they have played not point was scored against them and but two first downs were made through the line. They beat the Lawrence Collegians of Lawrence, Mass, go, the Cun- ningham Trojans, sponsored by Bill Cunningham, famous sports writer of the Boston Post and former all- American Dartmouth, 200, and the Ingams 28-0. If the club can get over this obstacle which looms as serious menace to the possibilities of an unbeaten record, her claim to the professional championship of the state will not fall on unheeding ears.
 The Quincy "Manets" boast such players as Julius Miskinis, all-Amer- ican center at Fordham in 1885; Rocky Maillano, a 200-pound guard from Bates; Cessarini, star end from St. Anselem's, which held Holy Cross to @ draw last year; Johnny Malvesti, great back from Boston college and Jack Cummings, a fiashy runner from Villanova
 Quicy Manet football club roster:
 Marty Graglio, Tufts; Abe Perkins, Northwestern; Rocky Maillana, Bates; Julius Miskinis, Fordham; Sam Coletti, Milton academy; Steve Stanley, Rondhike; Angelo Cessarini, St. Anselm's; Eddie Baldwin, Dean academy; Johnnie Malvesti, Boston college; Walter Satkus, all scholastic Bocrkton high; Nicky Malvesti, Bidgeton academy; Red McDonald, Loyola; Joe Lynch, B. U.; Huck La May, Turner Falls Pro club; Joe Shapiro, Quincy high; Felix Martell, East Stroundsbury T. O.; John Com- parto. Thayer academy; Jimmy Feel, Bridgeton academy? Jack Cummings, Villanova.

 Crimson Choice
 Dartmouth at Harvard-the wah- hoos from Hanover are unbeaten united and untested. Inexperience may initiate against them. Harvard hasn't won @ major game in four years, but the depression may end Saturday. So, pleading not guilty to prejudicial error, here's to Harvard after a close one.
 Detroit at Boston College-B. 0. has had nearly two weeks to pre- pare for this one against undefeat- ed Detroit. If they can stop Andy Farkas and Detroit's aerial deluge -oh well, Boston.

Special to The DemocraD


 New York, Oct. 21-The Danbury Trojans, leaders in the northern division of the American Profess sional Football association, lost a game by forfeit to the Brooklyn Bushwicks, it was announced today by Joseph Rosentover, president of the association.
 Scheduled to play the Bushwicks a week ago, the Trojans refused tc take the field when the gate re- ceipts failed to show @ satisfactory figure. The association board of di- rectors ruled that since each team was dressed and ready to play, the Trojans' action cost them the game
 The loss does not hurt the Trojans in the standing. Their un- defeated, united, and unscored upon record for three games, however, is blemished. The Bushwicks were credited with a 1 to o victory and advanced to third place over the Mount Vernon Cardinals in the northern division.
 It was also announced that the game scheduled between the Car dinals and the Bushwicks at Dexter Park tonight has been postponed until a later date.

 MONKEY PILE HELPS THE WILDCATS WIN

Wildcats how to tackle, force the foe to tumble, and recover the ball.
 One of the players hurls himself at the tackling dummy, and, then, while he is sprawled in the sandpile, Coach Smith cries "Monkeyl" and hurls football into the pit. At the same moment, three other men dive into the pit and the four guys scramble for the ball just the same as if there had been a tumble on the field.
 That's why two of Villanova's s three touchdowns in the startling Manhattan rout were the direct re- suit of recovered fumbles.
