J- the country, and Is capable of turning out a football team which will regain
iime or the prestige lost on Franklin Field In the last four years. He was stic-
cssful at 1'enn State and tho University of Missouri, and last year gave Penn
tviidtiia Military College tho best team It ever had. With that record behind him,
Ilollt'tiback should be even more successful at the University of Pennsylvania.
As a Fighter, Welsh Is Good Dancer
Freddy Welsh proved that ho was
nt the Olympla Inst night, but while he
Jimmy Murphy, who only boxes for a
paddest seen In a local ring In years, and
crowded Into tho club. Welsh fought
rounds, and during that time ho was punched all over the ring by tho liilla
cSctphlan. The other 17 minutes were spent in stalling and clinching, nt which
the champion Is a past master.
Murphy Won by a Wide Margin
The truth of the matter Is that Welsh Is not In the game to give the public
a. run for Its money. Ho runs after the public's money. Thu champion Is after
p strong, healthy bankroll, and his only object Is to stay In the ring long enough
to get It. He Insists on boxing only second nnd third-raters, but occasionally
he makes a mistake and gets Into tho ring with a real tighter, as was the case
laBt night. Ho gave a sorry exhibition for a world's champion, nnd It Is doubtful
If ho will bo asked to play a. return engagement.
But It was a wonderful victory for Murphy. Ho forced the bout, took all of
the chances, landed the greater number of blows and won by a wide margin.
Colleges May Investigate Summer Ball at Lake Placid
Tho collegians who played with Coughlln's Lnkc Placid team In tho White
Mountains last season are very much woirled, because It Is rumored that Vale,
Harvard and Princeton at the recent eligibility meeting, decided to lnves -
tlgato the summer ball conditions at that place. The team was run by tho
hotel management, and conditions wcro similar to those which caused I.cgoro
and his four teammates to bo barred by Yale. It Is possible that 12 collegiate
otars may find themselves eliminated.
The Open Season for Rumor Insect
This Is tho open season for rumors and kindred Insects. No sooner had
the baseball moguls arrived In Now York for the annual meeting of the
National League than theso modern molo Pandoras loosened the lid of tho
llttlo rumor box and let 'cm fly. They mainly boro American League labels.
Tho most astonishing proposition yet talked of Is the willingness of
Colonel Itupert, of the Yanks, to trade Mnlsel for Eddie Collins. This looks
to be n master move on the part of tho New York American League club
owner, as Charley Comlskcy Is apt to forget any minute that ho paid Connie
Alack 00,000 clammy slmolcons for Edward of Lansdowne and give him up
Just "to help the league."
Colonel Rupert again sent Ills regular biweekly shell hurtling Into the
ranks of baseballdom by announcing that ho wanted to get J. Franklin Baker.
New York newspaper men looked startled out of habit. They know when
to expect this statement, and they arc armed and well prepared for It.
Other rumors were that baseball peaco was assured; baseball war would
continue; that Herzog would leave tho Reds; that ho wouldn't under any
circumstances; Garry was "off tho stuff." They wero denied collectively.
Andy Smith's Strategy Won Big Game for Purdue
At the banquet of the Purdue University football team, Pultz, tho stocky
Mttlft t,'.1fV,n.. tnl.l flin riiita Hint tl.n T),rlA n,,r4 lu ..fntn.... n..n T Jl r, ... i I
the big game of last year to a brilliant
who was one of Penns much-lnterfered-wlth coaches a few years ago. Accord- I
Ing to Pultz, tho keen brain of Smith caused Purdue to tako advantugo of tho
puddles of water caused by heavy rain and theso puddles gave Purdue tho j
Mctory.
Smith Instructed Pultz to sacrifice distance in punting for accuracy, and
every time ho kicked during tho gnmo he aimed for a puddle. The result was
that Indiana could not run tho ball back, and many fumbles resulted, whlcl j
prevented Chllds' heavy team from scoring. Finally one of tho Indiana backs .
slipped Just as he was about to catch a punt and muffed tho ball. Purdue
recovered It and scored the touchdown which gave it a 7 to 0 victory. At Pcnn
they said Andy did not have a head, but If memory serves correctly Smith has
pulled off several clever pieces of strategy.
O'Donnell Agrees With Sharpe That Schoolboys Have too Many Plays
Cleo O'Donnell, tho premier scholastic coach of the Kast, agrees with Dr. Al
Sharpe, of Cornell, and "Speedy" Rush, of Princeton, men who have had won
derful success with school teams, that the average scholastic coach tries to
teach the boys too many plays and formations, with the result that powerful
elevens have gone to pieces at a critical stage.
"Ten plays are enough for any high school team," says O'Donnell. "If they
are worked with good Judgment nnd from several formations, they will win as
many games as an Immense repertoire and there Is hss chance for the boys to
become confuted. That is nil I ever give my boys. Strategy and a few well
bandied formations Is all a school team needs, and It will have a great bcorlng
machine."
Western Conference Regrets Its Action on Summer Ball
The members of the Western Conference regret their action In voting to
abolish baseball as u major sport. Tho excitement caused by the wholesale
disqualification of football stars for violating the summer ball rule caused tho
conference to act too hastily, and they now realize It. The students at every
college are up In arms, and Illinois threatens to drop out of the conference. To
bhow that It is ready to take this step, Illinois has scheduled one football gamo
with an Eastern eleven, and will take on others If the conference does not
reconsider Us declBlon.
Williams, a Minor Leaguer, Was iron Man of 1915
The greatest "iron man" record complied in baseball in years was made by
a minor leaguer during the 1915 season. This record goes to Johnny Williams, of
Minneapolis, of the American Association, who pitched 411 innings, including 32
full games and parts of 32 others. He was on the mound in 61 games, and
finished with 29 victories and 16 defeats, allowing only 2.53 runs per game. Any
pitcher who can do this is a wonder, and the Detroit Tigers, who landed him,
have a most promising youngster.
Baseball lost one of the most promising young players in the country when
Catcher "Peggy" Barth, star of the Imperial Valley Winter League, died at
Vernon, Cal., after a brief Illness. Barth was only 16 years old and had been
purchased by the Brooklyn National League club on the recommendation of
veteran major league players on the coast, who claimed he was another Schalk.
Penn's basketball team made an excellent Impression In its first game of
the season and had little trouble defeating Ursinus. The Collegovllle five was
far below the usual Btandardi but that should not detract from the impressive
showing of the Red and Blue. Coach Jourdet is handicapped by the lightness of
his material, but Is apparently In a fair way to develop a strong team.
'
Reports from the West state that Davey Bancroft, of the Phillies, returned
to his home in Sioux City suffering from a nervous breakdown and has not
fully regained his- health, A hunting trip into the North woods enabled him to
pick up some of the weight he lost in the closing stages of the 1915 race.

BRITON HAS GONE BACK
Philadelphia has a worthy contender for
championship prestige In Jimmy Murphy
who ln one year hns risen from n prelimi
nary novice Into the recognized leading
lightweight In this city. This Is tho opin
ion of tho nsllc fraternity hcic today fol
lowing Murphy's victory over Fred Welsh,
the tltleholder, at the Olympla last night.
Tho champion, as was expected did almost
as much clinching ns he did fighting, while
Murphy was In tho ring trjlng his at
rnost throughout the limited 18 minutes.
Welsh's exhibition proved that he hni
lost Mi famous left Jab, the punch which
won for him thi lightweight laurels from
Willie Ritchie on a questionable decision
In London, July 7, 1014. This blow served
Fred In little stead. Ho fought In flash's
at close quarters, holding on with one arm,
nnd clinched at every opportunity.
AVlth tho exception of the last round,
when Murphy becamo over-anxious in his
endeavor to cross his hefty right, and
was a mark for several of Welsh's left
leads, the Briton showed little form. The
first, third and fifth rounds were even.
ond and fourth frames. The boxers
fought at cntch weights, with Welsh
having a considerable advantage In

FIOTBALL experts of the country havo
had their lllng In tho matter of select
ing All-American elevens, and now, sea
sonably, the track and field authorities
turn attention to their particular branch
of sport The track season of 1915 ends

Tho problem of picking an All-American '
clndcipath squad Is quite a task, for the I
season Just closed has produced some
wonderful athletes. Quite naturally Ted I
Meredith ilghtfully deserves a high spot i
In the rating. Tho Penn world's chain- i
plon middle-distance runner Is accorded '
the palm In tho 410-yard run.
In the San Frnnelsco championships ho j
not only outran a great field of sprint
ers, but equaled the world's record of 47
seconds, set by Maxcy Long, on a
straightaway course. Meredith was con-
slneieil for tho half-mile honors, as ho
ran some spectacular races. On Franklin
Field, at tho Intcrcolleglates, ho scored
a double victory, being first In both the
quarter and half mile vaces. Meredith
set a record for double wins that has
never been duplicated.
It Is true In 1SS2. 1SS3 and 1581 W. H.
(oodnln, Jr.. of Ilnrvard, won double
races, but that was CO jcars ago, when
competition was not so keen and when
It was not necessary to rim preliminary
heats. Lo Itoy Campbell, tho University
of Chicago star, ran repeatedly around
the 1:51 mark, and his consistency clearly
gives him the call. At tho Central A.
A. V. national tryouts ho was clocked
in 1:51 1-5. At tho coast meet be did not
extend himself, and won In 2.01.
Ilannes Kolchmnlnen, triple winner at
the Stockholm Olympics, is the only man
on tho alt-American track roster who has
pained two places. The great Finnish
rimiur, now competing for tho Irish
Aiiierlean A. C, of New York, time and
ngaln demonstrated his wonderful powcih
of endurance hy earning oft all dis
tance honors up to 10 miles.
The real sensation of the jear was the
