for tho position.
Until the board has acted on this Im
portant matter Charley Dooln will remain
silent on his plans for tho future. If tho
gossip In baseball circles Is true, there
id no chunce ot Dooln's reappointment; at
tile same time, there is almost as much
uncertainty In the workings of the ofuee
of a baseball club as there Is on the
Held.
John Coombs pitched yesterday In the
American I.engue for the llrst time since
the llrst two games at Boston In 1913,
April 10 .and 11. Several limes- this season
'Colby John, the "ex-Iron Sinn," has been
f-cnt In to do a little work In exhibition
games, but ho was not assigned for
league duty until yesterday. It Is tho
geneial belief among physicians who have
had Coombs under their euro for the last
year and n, half that he will never bo
ablo to regain his pitching form.
At piesent Coombs la strong. But the
trouble it. that ho has some lurking fear
that he mnv strain his back, which was
affected In his last attack in the fnll of
1013. This would naturally prevent his
putting his strength on the ball.

Princeton nnd Yule have burned their
bridges behind them In their determina
tion to play nothing but open, advanced
football. Both Coach Pendleton, of
Princeton, and Coach Hlnkey, of Yale,
declare that they have abandoned the
conservative game and Intend to stand
or fall by the open game. This Is In
deed welcome news, because It can't be
denied that In tho past tho games be
tween these two teams have been fre
quently nbout as dull ns most Army
Navy games, with tho two teams afraid
to open up.
Apparently tho coaches of both insti
tutions have awakened to the fact that
In developing the possibllltlles of open
foutbull their predecessors have only
scratched the surface. Thero's a lot of
truth In this. For one thing, they have
been too much afraid of losing posses
sion of tho ball to tiy much else but
close formation plays, varied by un oc
casional forward pass, though most of
the forward passes havo been used as a
last resort when everything else had
failed.
There Is no longer any doubt that "Ted"
Slerrlll has the Inbldo track for the quar
terback position on the Pennsylvania
eleven. In yesterday afternoon's praettc
ho played this position most of the time,
and Ills work was a continuation of what
ho did on Saturday against Gettysburg.
Slerrill Is about tho only member of the
back Held who possesses a change of pace
nnd who can stralght-nrm luckier. Like
wise, ho catches punts with some cei
talnty. Slerrlll's running in tin open ti. m
Is very much Itlco that of Sillier, thr for
mer Ponn State quarterback ddlng ,
a little confidence to Merrill is making
a dirfetent plavcr of him. I
Assistant Coach 'By" Dickson is si ti- i
ouslv won led over the denrth nf out

n.uKf or iirenK a team, speen is not tho eleven tnis year, and has been dis
oni i.quiaito. for if it were ponnsj I-' playing marked ability.

C. H. S. had the best pair of scholastic
ends In Philadelphia in Younar and Kerr,
but neither man Is now In school, and
the material for the wins positions is
not very good.
The most likely of the candidates are
DeLon;;. Brenner and Goodell, and It Is
probable that the llrst two of these will
make the regular berths, ulthouRh the
latter, who Is from Vlllanova, is very
fast and may make a place on the team.

Pierre de Coubertin, from Havre, France,
dated Sept. i, and addressed to tho lat
James E. Sullivan, who was Secretary
of tho American Olympic Committee,
states on behalf of the International
Olympic Committee that the question of
a change In the location of the games
of 1918 Is not even to be discussed. Ha
says in his letter. ''The seat of the VI.
Olympiad remains what it was, and, con
trary to what the American papers say,
I will not personally make any proposal
In favor of a change, we never thought
the Olympic games would stop war3, and
I feel perfectly sure that when the
present war Is over the Olympic move
ment will begin again as strong and
fruitful as ever."

thought they 'aw in "Kid" Herman, of
P kin, II!., n future rhnnipion. Kid Will
iams, of r-nltimore. holder of the world's
tl ari'P onship title, easily outboxed, out
flus"d and finally Knocked out the little
westerner in four rounds at the Oljmpla
A. A . last nlKht.
The bfiut brought out a record crowd
and long before the llrst bout was put on
very seat In the house wus tilled, and
theri were hundreds standlns. The boys
were to have weighed In nt US pounds,
but the champion was a quarter ot a
pound overwe'Bht Herman entered tha
rlnt? ftrt, and took the corner which
William has lwiis occupied In all hla
confets before tho Olympta flub. Will
iams wanted Herman to give him his
favi.ite corner, but Uortnan wan obdurate
and rfter ft ten-minute wrangle Williams
took the other corner.
