That means faster and harder football, which should go big with the dear old public. '' The sledding was exceedingly rough last fall. First came the S..A. T. C. orders which prevented trips in October and only two in November. Then followed the flu epidemic which closed football fields because the wise health authorities had a lop-sided notion that it was bad to be out In the open air. That bone-headed order almost ruined the season, but in November the colleges got together and played several games to fnlr nudlences. Pittsburgh and Tenn played out their schedules nnd some of the colleges up state and in New England followed suit. This year everything is different. The game is in for a big revival, the same as big league baseball. Football fans are impatient to get out in the stands and wateh some games and they soon will be accommodated. Pittsburgh will liuvc a great team, although (Jlenu Warner is not elated oyer the prospects. However, with a backtield composed of DcIIart, Hastings, Tom t)avies and Morrow, be should worry.

All of the old stars have returned and several promising freshmen have announced their intentions of entering college. Rogers, the hefty fullback, will lead tbe team, and Bailey, all-American center, will play the pivotal position.

The Kid wanted a set-up to knock all oTer the ring and Lynch was supposed to be the goat. However, Joseph pulled the biggest surprise in his young career when he flattened the ex -bantam champ in the ' fceurth round. It was a clean-cut victory and there was no question of a fuke. Now he is after championship honors and as he is a hard hitter and , (&' sock from any angle, Herman is likely to have his hands full.

Maybe he won't. Mas be, again, they'll force him to show 'em. Dave Herron, winner of the United States amateur championship at golf, what ever he decides, sees a stormy Ftreteh nhead. From the Minkist orchards of Califor. nia to tho rollicking wavelets of the Atlantic they have been hurling mlsMI-s, overripe missiles, at the crown of the new-found champ. Nearly every critic and UnkR expert of the land who saw the play for tho national belt has risen since then to slosh Ink all over the place and claim that Herron. the hercu lean hnzard hopper, came by his title bv reason of the brenks and the mega phones. That the path was eased for him by better golfers. That he could not repent. That he Is not the bet golfer In the country. That ho won it from the best without playing them. In short, that he is a cheese champion. To all of which Big Dave, naturally, nnswers nothing. It wouldn't be golf ethics to cast a defl in the teeth of all coiners. Ho won. That settles it till nest year. Anything that happened at Plttkburgh wasn't his fault. He played 'em ns they came and beat 'em. If the committee bellowed too loud with its megaphones, that wasn't his fault. If the crowd was all with him, to the disadvantage of his opponents, he could not stop that. But he can wipe out this "cheese champion" stuff nnd prove he's; the real thing. He's got his title. He's entitled to It without competition, till next September. But meantime public opinion doesn't think he deserves it. They want to fee him iu action, see him back it up. The fall curtalu is just going up and there Is plenty of big stuff on the bills. Keystone There Pennsylvania made the best showing at the tournament for national honors the figures show that. Of four links- men in tne seminnais. wrr "ri rennsylvaniaus. A Phtladelphian got the low-score gold medal. A Pitts burgher won the title. The middle of this month they will trumpet em to the tees for tho Pennsylvania amateur championship.

If Herron passes up this tourn-ment, the. tourney won't be for the championship of Pennsylvania. If be plays and wins, he'll be bitting way up there on the rocks where the skep. tics can't fling him about on the tides. If ht playn and loseii what will he be? Then comes the big jousting. Play for the Lesley Cup will be resumed. This brings forward, the 8d of October over the National golf links, one of the best tests in the country, teams of ten rnlfers each from Pennsylvania, New York and Manachusitts Boston In the main.

Taking 'em by and all, the countryside is still about whacked up between the relative virtues of Francis Ouimet nnd Chick Lvans as America's premier golfer to day. Herron's got the title, but Homo folks feel that Ouimet and Evans put each othttr out la that famous match of theirs where, they gave all and tough luck to the bird to fall, So, how about Evans versus Herron, La compared the one with the other? Looking tluough the statistic it doeWt show any reason why Hcrron should play Evans this year. They won't have to dash In any particular tournamentg unless one goes gunning for the other.

Only two will be idle Kilbsne and Dempsey. Bantam Champion Pete Herman meets Joe Lynch in Waterbury, Conn., this afternoon. Welterweight Champion Jack Brit tou was scheduled to meet Jock Molone in Canton today. First it was called off on account of Britton's illness, but the latest report has the match on. Middleweight Champion Mike O'Dowd faces ex-Wclterwcight Champion Ted (Kid) Lewis in Syracuse thlsevenlng. Lightweight Champion Benny "Leon ard engages the rugged middleweight, Soldier Bartfield, at the Phillies' Park on Wednesday evening. Well Matcned AH of the matches should serve as a real test for the champions. Lynch has demonstrated that he possesses the class, the skill and. the punching power. Jock Molone is one of the dangerous welters. Ted (Kid) Lewis is n great fighter when in condition. He Is far upcrior to O'Dowd as a ring general und a boxer, but lacks the hitting ability of the rugged Irishman. As for Barttield, he should give Leon ard one of the best fight of hi career. Bartfield has stood up under alt kinds r.f punches from the big fellows, and Is still stnnding around looking for trouble. It is a hard job to couviiicc Bartfield where a little fellovv like Leonard hn any chance against him. It Is equally as difficult to show Leonard where a big, slow, awkward guy like Bartfield can land on him once in a week, Leonard May Go Abroad There s au excellent chance of Ben ny Leonard making a trip to England before mhny weeks have passed. Billy Gibson, Leonard's pilot, has received a number ot flattering offers for the services of the champion in England. Ilecently a Denver promoter offered Leonard a guarantee of $-0,000 to meet Charley White in a twenty-round champicnshlp battle In the Colorado metropolis, but this wns declined by Gibson, wbo Is giving much considera tion to tho English offer. Gibson made the following statement Saturday when he visited the offices "of Promoter Leon L. Bains : "We've been tryipg to decide whether we'll accept the offer of $50, 000 made by an English promoter for two bouts abroad. Personally J hate to make the trip when there are so many matches to be had right here, hut two matches look pretty good and $50,000 Is a lot of money. ' "One-Bound" Willie 'The new three-minute fighter, One Bound Willio Jackson, will be with us for a short time on Wednesday evening. The fastest hitting right-hand puncher in the game the man who makes them say "You can't top what you don't see" will engage Eddie Wal lace, of Brooklyn. Wallace doesn't rate with Tendler, felling, Dundee and Ollne, but he Is a boy who has gone the limit with them all, He once lingered for six rounds with Leonard In the Olympla ring. Jackson has never fought Leonard. nnd in this respect some credit must be given Wallace. If Willie can put over that right like he did at Bhibe Park last month tbe wind-up should be op in a hurry. Joe Benjamin, of the coast, will make his second eastern appearance against JOO 1VQ0DS.
