MANY SURPRISES PULLED IN .
" SATURDAY'S FOOTBALL GAMES;
JOHNSON TO START TROUBLE
-
Largg Eastern Colleges Find Smaller Opponents
Hard to Beat, While Colgate's Victory Over
Illinois Startled Country
TNK nrat real tetportant week of the football union resulted In many sur
Klee. Hat o many favorites vere beaten as sometimes la the caaa, but tho
toseBeas ef name that were looked upon us aura one-tided contests bofore they
were played, and the surprisingly high scores made by other teams, camo as dis
tinct surprises to the followers of the irreat autumn sport of the American col
tare. Tho routine of more than one toam for the coming1 week will be changed
M result of Saturday's games.
Pennsylvania's defeat at the hands of Swarthmore was perhaps the greatest
surprise of the day, but Pennsylvanlana who witnessed the game ara not a bit
discouraged and look upon the Garnet triumph aa a fluke. Thoy point out that
the Red and Blue team showed Its usual powerful defense, and nlthough no score
was made, Folwsll had a better variation of play and moro sustained offense than
mr renn team has shown In recent years.
Oilier large college elevens that wero disagreeably surprlsod by opponents
who were looked upon as soft picking also may have reasons for feeling satisfied
today, but rrlnceton, Tale, Pittsburgh, Illinois and Itutgcrs do not appear to be
ma formidable as thoy did a week ago, while the stock of Swarthmoro, Tufts (again),
lhlgh, Navy, Colgato and Washington and Lee took a sudden Jump.
Princeton, like Penn, figures that It ahould have scored at least two touch
towns, but the fact remains that Tufts gave them a battle all tho way and proved
even stronger than tho surprising victory over Harvard had presaged. Yale
cored two touchdowns on Lehigh, which was about as much an could be ex
pected, but the fact that the South Dethlehemltes outplayed tho Ells durlHg the
greater part of the game nnd were within the 6-yard line twlco Indicates either
that Tad Jones's team Is not so powerful as It has been touted or Lehigh has a
remarkably strong team.
Colgate's Victory Was Greatest Achievement of Day
THE greatest surprise of the day brought forth only passing comment. This
was Colgate's astounding victory over Illinois'-, vetoran championship eleven,
that has been touted as the greatest team turned out In the West In ten years.
Colgate has beon represented by powerful teams for several years, but If Illinois
baa not been overrated by competent football mon the Uamlltonlana' present team
must be the strongest ever turned out at that Institution,
Illinois, with Its array of stars who won the Western Conference champion
hip, welcomed the chance to show the East that Zuppke's team wns tho greatest
In tho country, and counted upon running up such a large score on Colgate that
Eastern critics, by comparison of scores, would bo compelled to award the cham
pionship of both the Bast and West to Illinois, providing tho Champlaln 'eleven
again won the western title.
Not only did Colgate succeed In scoring three times on the western cnam
plons, but It also kept the ball In Illinois territory and dangerously closo to the
coal In all but Ave minutes of play, Thero was no question a to which was the
stronger team, and tho Colgato victory will give eastern critics an excellent
Chance to compare the relative strength of tho teams of the East and West this
season.
Penn meets Michigan each season, but as the. Wolverines are no longer In the
Western Conference and do not meet any of the teams, and Penn does not play
Tale, Harvard or Princeton, It Is Impossible to get a line on the teams of the
Wert through theso annual battles. Unless Illinois slumps aftor tho Colgate
defeat. It Is 'likely to again win the Conference title with Its veteran team, which
would mean that the West Is eliminated In a legitimate manner this Beason, and
Bot because of eastern prejudice. (
Bon Johnson Will Clean House
BAN JOHNSON, president of tho American League and tho real power of, or
ganized baseball, said on Saturday: "The world's series as conducted at
present threatens to Jeopardize the fair name of tho game in public opinion. We
can never stand for that. There is some hauseclcatilng to bo done, and It Is
going to start wlicre most of the dlsroutant has gathered. I always havo been
Strongly opposed to the Increase In the world's series price of admission, that has
now approached to an exorbitant extreme.
"I think I can safely promise f&ndom on behalf of the American Leaguo that
a scale of prices more Just to tho purse of tho great general public which supports
tho game will prevail In the future. Far better no world's serins at nil than that
fandom should be plucked or conditions tolerated that penult the most liumblo
bleacher patron to feel that he Is being discriminated against In the great fall
r -classic"
President Johnson said many other things, but the above Is the meat of a sen
rational interview, and one which we have been expecting for some time. Less
than a week before the world's series we predicted that tho clash between the red
Sox and Dodgers would be tho last baseball classic played under present conditions.
For this prediction wo were roundly scored by scribes who aro strong advocates
of anything the National Commission favors, but President Johnson's statement
r proves beyond doubt that it was correct.
A significant sentence above Is Johnson's statement referring to the house-
cleaning that is coming. Offhand we should say tho housecleanlng Is the abolish
ing of the National Commission as It Is now composed, another move presaged In
these columns weeks ago. The housecleanlng probably will Include tha sale of
several franchises, ono of which Is the Boston Americans. It uIho Is significant
that Johnson made no attempt to deny tho EvnNiNa Leporh's exclusive story that
Owner Lannln was to be ousted from the American League by Johnson.
Has Won Many Hard Battles
JOHNSON has pulled through many hard fights since he has been at the head
of tho American League and Is tho most powerful tlgure In tho game, but he
has a harder battle on his hands than he Imagines. Johnson's greatest handicap
in his fight to clean house lies in the fact that his opponents havo Known for some
time that he contemplated this move and are prepared for anything he may doclde
to do.
The "Csar" Is a wonderful fighter and probably has gone further with his plans
than any ono Imagines, and It Is certain that whatever he does the American
League will stand by him, even If It resolves Itself to a question of splitting with
tho National League. It is believed by those on the Inside that Johnson Is not sat
tofled with tho National Commission as it stands now, and will insist that It be re
organized so that there Is one member of each league and an entirely disinter
ested party comprising; the supreme body.
r If this arrangement should go through either President Tener, of the National
-Xeague, or Chairman Oarry Herrmann, of the National Commission, would be
dropped. Under such conditions It Is known that even the National League mag
v Mates would favor Herrmann as their representative on the commission, which
ruld leave Tener out In the cold. This Is a condition that would satisfy John,
a, and ho probably would give In on many points If ho carried this one.
Johnson has not hesitated to crltlclio the former Governor of Pennsylvania
a his, method of handling very important cases during tho last season, and when
Tener refused to Investigate the recent fiasco In Brooklyn the American League
leader bitterly assailed him and did everything but tell the scribes In plain words
feat the National League was being run In a manner that meant certain ruin tin
Ism a change was made. Through It all President Tener smiles and does not seem
to realise the importance of drastic action. One National League magnate said
during the world' series that he would give anything to seo Tener do a little moro
ftefeUng and decided! less handshaking, so It U easy to see that a storm Is ap-
Vteaohlng,
.
Lafayette t off to a poor start again this season, but Coach Crowsll Is not wor
rying yet. Tks osly gam on the Eastonlans' schedule that really counts la the
- battle with LeWgh. If this game Is won the season Is a success, regardless of tha
rwsult ef aM ether contests. The 1915 season started off disastrously, but Lehigh
i beaten ana ail was forgotten.
WILLIAMS TAKES
SHUBERT AS FOE
AT OLYMPIA CLUB
Champion, in Third Go of
Season Here, Tackles New
Bedford Battler
DOPE ON LOCAL BANTAMS
By LOUIS H. JAFFE
Kid Williams, still competent as bantam
boss and not "through" by far, will be In
our midst again tonight for the third time
this season, when ho endeavors to polish
oft Al Shubert, New Bedford, Mnes, ns
easily as he did .Toe O'Donnell nnd llcnny
Kaufman. The Olympla Athlctlo Associa
tion, newely renovated anil one of the lend
Ing arenas of the twentieth century, wilt be
the scene of the combnt,
For awhile several flatlo dopesters, con
sidered real wise guys, were telling how
much Williams had gone back and how he
was virtually on the down grade as a
champion, but 1'hltadetphlans have been
"shown," and the Kid still Is safely on his
pinnacle, far from being In dangor of losing
his bantam laurels. Hhubert Is a rugged
battler and may keep Williams on the
alert for a few rounds, but at the Anal
gong there should bo little doubt ns to
the Ilaltlmnresn's superiority.
Two other real good matches are sched
uled tonight, Irlah Patsy Cllne vs. Uuckle
Fleming and Young Dlgglns vs. Terrible
Terry Ketchell. Since last year Cllne has
developed Into a full-fledged lightweight
nnd his mix with Buck will ho the lntter's
first slnca becoming a benedict. Terrible
Terry,' tho battling barber, has a good
opportunity to add to his prestlgo against
little Dig.
Ertlc's Rent Class
Another Instance was brought baforo
l'lilly fans prolng Just how good Mr.
Johnny I'rtle. self-styled bantam cham
pion, really Is when Joe Lynch, following a
sensational bout with the Kewplo, wns un
able to hold even his own against Barney
Hahn nt the National Club Saturday night.
Several New York critics gave Lynch tho
better of his set-to with llrtle; others gavo
him a draw, but tho "Fighting Harp" dis
played little class against Hahn. For the
first four rounds, why Lynch didn't have a
thing. Although he uncorked a few right
handers In the fifth and sixth, the Gotham
He's rally wasn't suftlclent to earn him even
a draw,
Ireland's most recent contender for pres
tige In heavyweight ranks was blasted when
Jim Healy was knocked cold In the second
session by Homer Smith. Neither showed
science, and It wns a case of which was the
better and quicker puncher. Smith has a
terrlllo right-hander. Four times Homer's
right found Jim's Jaw before the kayo and
four times Healy hit the floor for nine tolls.
The knockout was expected, and when fist
cracked jawbone Healy went down with a
mighty thud. There wns no necessity to
count.' Heferee McGulgnn know It. Ho
didn't count
Jimmy Fryer was given a surprising Bet
back when Walter I.nurette came over from
New York and piled up so many points In
the first four rounds that Jcnns's advan
tage In tho remainder of the match was too
little to even up matters. Terry McGovern
again, won, defeating Lew Stinger In a
slugging bee nnd the best bout of the night.
Put O'Mnlley knocked out Joe Kurtz In the
sixth. Seven times Kurtz went down before
being carried to his corner.
Ancnt Another Ambitious Critic
ANOTIIRR AMBITIOUS CltlTIC appsr
ently has failed to bo given a declaration
by Champion Williams that he had flatly
turned down a J5600 offer nnd $1000 bonus
to sign for a meeting with Eddie O'Keefe
nt Baltimore. Moo Oreenbaum, manager
of O'Keefe, furnishes this Information.
Tho "MATCHMAKER" also mny be sur
prised to learn that Dave Wartnlk, Wil
liams's manager, demanded a "paltry"
IZ00O that's all for a go with Lew Tend
ler lost year. We presume that when a
demand like this Is mads there Is only one
solution an ensy way out of the match.
Phil QIaseman, Tendler'a handler, himself
told us that Lewie had outgrown the ban
tam class and would box as a feather
weight In the future. This also may bo
news for ANOTHER AMBITIOUS critic.
As to a match between Williams and
Louisiana, who Is out of town, we reiterate,
FINE I But will Williams agree to meet
tho boy who knocked down the Kid for a
fraction of a second less than ten? If he
will, again FINE! Let's have It: It would
be a real treat for Phlladelphlans, who
support boxing better thsn fans In any
other city.

NATIONAL LEAGUE OUTCLASSED
NOW IN ALL DEPARTMENTS BY
TEAMS IN JOHNSON'S CIRCUIT
Brooklyn Would Have Found It Hard Even, to
Beat Out Browns, Occupants of Fifth Place.
Player Limit Hurts
By GRANTLAND HICE
IV Tim National League desires to retain
Its position ns n major lengtie the hour
Is about ripe for those In chnrge to go out
and get busy on the job. There Isn't any
question but that through 1910 the older
circuit was utterly, absolutely nnd Irre
vocably outclassed. Brooklyn was good
enough to win a pennant, and yet we doubt
very much, after having watched both
leagues, all season, whether Brooklyn could
have finished fifth In the Johnsonian cir
cuit. You can write It down as a certainty
that Brooklyn couldn't have beaten out
Boston, Detroit or Chicago In the A. L..
and We don't believe she could have finished
ahead of the Tanks and the Browns.
About Time for a Shift
Compare the Itoblns and tho Browns
pennant winners In one league nnd fifth
placers In the other. The catching depart
ments were about the same. The Browns,
with Davenport, Wellman, Dank and oth
ers, had a pitching staff to compare easily
with Marquard, Chency.VfefTer and Coombs.
The Browns, with Sister, I'rntt, Lavan and
Austin, had a far better Infield than Dau
bert, Cutshaw, Qldson and Mowrey. And
the same dope goes for tho Brown outlleld
with Shotton and Marsans around.
When It comes to a papa where a flag
winner In the league doesn't quite stack
up with a second dlvUlon club In the
other, the moment Is well-nigh prime for
a shift. And Brooklyn proved that she had
the best club in the ?otlonal League.
Not Brooklyn Alone
This Is no rap at Brooklyn alone. The
National Leaguo hasn't won but one Berlos
In sen years, and that series was won by
an Inspired bull club In a delirium. The
Cubs, the Qlants, the Phillies and the Itob
lns all have been crushed In turn. Outside
of the one Brave uprising, the American
League In six yearB, since 1909, has won
twenty-four games and dropped but nine In
postchnmplonshlp affairs. This sosson, In
four major league cities, there were four
teen post-season battles. Of the fourteea
tho American League won twelve and lost
two. These are figures that admit of no
debate. They are not matters of opinion.
They are conclusive results, set down In cold
type beyond any partisan rave.
All-Star Teams
The same eocb for almost every all-star
team picked. In such a selection no man
oould leae off rlpsaker, Cobb, Schalk, Col
lins, Johnson, Ruth, Slsler the bulk of the
team. There are many who also udded
Gardner, Bcott and Lewis, The best the
National Leaguo could get would be about
one-third.
Leaving the figures aside, we talked with
one or two ball players who had served
time In both circuits. Their dope wns ex
actly the same In both batting and pitch
ing, they averred, the American League
was far ahead, And batting and pitching
happen to be quite a part of the game.
A Long Stretch
The Amtrloan League has been well
ahead for the greater part of tha last seven
years, ever slnoe the Cubs began to sub
side. )tut the gap was wider In 1818 than
It ever han been before. No one who saw
Boston and Brooklyn play the recent series
could figure the two clubs within a league
of the same class
Boston had so much tha better of It, and
this without any extra effort, that the com
petition most of the way was pitiful You
might suggest that Boston won the first two
games by only one run each. But aak any
one who saw that first 4 to C contest how
the two clubs looked.
The Trouble Being What?
What Is tho troubloT Is the American
Ieague paying out more money for Btars?
Is the younger circuit mora alert In Its
Bearch for budding talent?
The answer Is "Yes" In both cases. In
nddltlon to this, the American League, with
a twenty-flve-player limit, has a big advan
tage oer the National, where orlly twenty
one are used.
The Red Sox Future
Boston won a pennant and a champion
ship last season with Speaker In center
field, Jack Barry at second and Oeorge
Foster pitching star ball.
These three were regarded aa the main
stays of the club. This fall Boston went
Into a pennant campaign and a world series
campaign with Speaker, Barry and Foster
missing or of no use. And Boston looked
fully as strong without the three aa sho
looked when they wero around.
For next year on tho Boston club, Shore,
Ruth and Leonard ore all young men.
They have been stars for only two years,
they should Just be under way. Around
the Infield Scott and Barry stilt have sev
eral years ahead, while Lewis and Hooper,
although veterans, are far from being ready
for tho D. and O. League. Figure out this
lied Sox club as It looked against Brooklyn,
with Jack Barry back and one or two
joung finds tossed In.
Unless too much victory, after the man
ner of too much success, weakens or softens
their morale, Boston should be good ft.r
at least one more campaign at tha top
unless BUI Donovan's young machine swings
Into its stride.
The world's champs soon may begin to
decay, just as the Cubs, Tigers, Mackmen
and Giants did after a few years of suc
cess. It may be that next year will find
them on the way downhill, but not vary
far downhill with Shore, Leonard and Ruth
around to block the descent.

Newcorn & Green,
Gentlemen:
During life's business pilgrimages we
receive more or less censure and reproach,
generally more. It is a pleasant memory,
also a relief nt times, to receive commen
dations to brighten the Journey. Now per
mit me to advise you how. pleased I am
In the last suit you sent me. As It suits
me In every detail, I feel In Justice to you
and your square and honorable dealing
this should not pass by unnoticed. This,
as you are aware, is entirely unsolicited
on your part
(Signed) J. W, P.
