TIIK Winter LrnRiic of I'rofpional Hn--rbnll Clubs wilt formally open its
neuson In New York tomorrow w lion the Nationals resume nn offensive against
Garry Herrmnnn. Onrry. wlio Is elialrmau of the National f'ommlssion. will
bo asked to wear the royal tinware and join the Order of the Onto by his
brother presidents in the league. lie also will he requested to take the air,
for, It is said, other plans have been made to till the position.
Last fall it was claimed that the odds were seven to one againt Onrry,
but according to reports, gossip and minor, the Cincinnati l-s has three
other companions on his side, making it e en -Stephen. If such is the case,
much conversation will be spilled, the battle will be a furious one and only
the guys with loud voices will score points. Hut it's cinch the Winter
League grand opening will be dry and hot and something of n startling nature
will be done.
Ou Wednesday the other halt of the league will convene in Chicago. This
Will be a Johnson meeting, with live Amerirnn League clubs represented. On
the same iln.i , in New York, the Colonels will meet with two other companions
and hold nn opposition meeting. There is n split in the American ranks,
because Ban ."Johnson canned Carl Mays and then held tip the -world series
money which was supposed to go to the third -place club. It's u grand old
tow, but eerjthing will lie straightened out In a short time. A couple of
minutes nfter the meeting in Chicago is culled to order the board of directors
Will be fired, new ones named and Chicago, New York and Huston will be up
against it.
Uaseball will get rlenty of publicity in the winter months. However, it
is too bad that the magnates, after going through a successful season financially,
ennnot cut out the petty squabbling and get together. The game will be bigger
than ever next year, and unless the Hag of truce is unfurled and nil armistice
Bigneil conditions will be ns pleasant as tho-e in the league of nations. The
National Leugue desires llentnnnn's scalp and tluce-fifths of the American
circuit opposes Johnson. Now let's have the fireworks, and may It be u finish
fight.
r.V ADDITWS to the latllc-roytil, the usual trade talk will he uptct.
Mann players are likely to he swapped ami the I'hils are said to be
Considering several important deals.
Wilde Finished as Low as lie Could
TIMMY WILP13 made his debut in Milwaukee Saturday nigh; and finjghod
r
0
id because tlint was as low as he could finish. The little English
man, who was heralded ns the greatest pieie of lighting mncliiucry ever turned
out hi England, did not make an impressive showing, mid In? has no chance
for an alibi. He was conceded every point, the audience and the officials were
fair and the bout was decided on its meiits.
Wilde insisted that Young Sharkey weigh in nt 111! pounds at 7 o'clock
instead of 3 p. in. That weakened the little New Yorker, for he is at his
best at IIS pounds. However, the Englishman was allowed to have his way,
and even then he could not win.
According to reports, Sharkey, after boxing a few louuds, deliberately
dropped his guard in one of the later sessions and allowed AVilde to hit him
nt will. When he iulKoted no damage. Sharkev p.-ne him the laugh. That
does not look ns if the noted bo:.er had a knockout wallop.
Those at the ringside in Milwaukee Jie not vi-rj optimistic ocr Wilde's
chances against other Aincii'-an bantams. They sa; that over in England
Jimmy's opponents are licked before thej start, but hut here the bojs care
nothing for reputations. Of lourse, Wilde is gijjng away uiue or ten pounds
In every battle, but that's nothing new for him.
Battling Murray or Patsj Wallace probably would give him' an interest
inn'sesslon, now that he has been defeated. That victory scored by Sharkey
will help the American bows considcrabl , for they now know the visitor is
not Invincible. Jimmy will have a rough time of it here.
The Cnrpentier-Dempsey bout is a big topic of conversation in fistic
circles now, but there is little chance of the men getting together for nt least
eix months. Carpentier is a smart jtiung man and already has arranged an
exhibition tour through Englnud, Belgium nud Trance. As soon ih this is over.
and the money placed in bank the match with Deinpsey will be considered.
And .Tuck himself, apparently, is not anxious to resume training He Is
starring in the movies, collecting huge bales of kale, and the chances arc his
highly perfumed manager hopes he never gets another fight.
JIII.IXY promoters already are bidding for the big fuss. They will
" coniiiiue to bid all winter, but ichen the time comes the time
EVER comes to do business, jmt watch Tct liiekard step in. offer an
honcst-to-goodncss purse and cop. Tet's honesty and fair dealing put
him in a class by himself,
Greenleaf and Keogh Stand Out
r FTEIt the first week's play, two experts stand out with clean slutes in the
" pocket billiard championship held in the Parkway Building. They are
llalph Greenleaf, the youthful cue wizard, nml Jerome Keogh, former world's
champion. Each has won four games and lobt none and will oppose each other
for the first time tonight. The games will be worth seeing.
This tournament is the big-grot ever held in l'hlladelpliia in recent years
and is a great thiug for the game. It is the idea of It. B. Bcnjamiu, the
greatest publicity man in the country, and has turned out successfully. It is
the third of a series of tournaments. The first was held in New York, when
"Willie Hoppe won the 18.12 balkline championship. The second was staged iu
Cleveland and the three-cushion sharps competed. Canuefax won from Mc
Court nfter u hard tussle. Now we have the pocket billiard matches, and
although Greenleaf is the favorite, no one can tell what will happen.
The pool experts say that every man In the tourney will be defeated nt
least once before it is over. The players are improving every day and the
youngsters are springing surprises. Concanuon'H victory over Luyton Satur
day night nud Kreuter's work against the MisMiuriup are two examples of what
can happen. Kreuter. by the wu, bus Improved 50 per cent since his first
game. He has nerve, Is a good shot-maker and plays position well. His only
weakness is shooting too hard ou break shots: but this can be overcome. Out
side of Greenleaf, Kreuter is the jouugest man iu the tournament.
It Is fortunate that such a capable referee as Charles C. Peterson, of St.
Louis, is officiating in the gunies. Peterson has the hardest work to do.
Every day he works twelve or more hours, sometimes missing his meals. He
counts every point, decides on till fouls and keeps the games running smoothly.
No wonder he never smiles while ou the job.
THE tournament ends next Saturday night, and the champion and
runner-up will tour the country under the direction of Mr. Ben
jamin. Teamwork vs. Individual Play
TEAMWOUK in footbull will triumph out individual play nine times out
of ted. This was proved in Norristown Saturday when Conshohoeken and
tPhOfnlxvllle played a scoreless tie. On paper. Phoenixville should havo won
'by a big score, but it couldn't be done on the gridiron.
Never before iu this section of the country has there been such a galaxy
of Mars nn one team. Heinle Miller, of Peun, and DuMoe, of Lafayette, played
ends; Spagnu, of Lehigh, and Nelou, of Penn, tackle; McIIugh and Burns
were guards, O'Hearn, of Lehigh, center, and the backfield consisted of Johnny
"Weldon and Johnny Scott, of Lafayette, and Pard Pcarce and Ben Derr, of
Peuu. That surely was a great bunch of players; but team play was lacking
and no scores were made.
Cousliohoekcu had a few college men, but the teum had been plaing to
gether all season aud showed It. Pottlcger, the fullback, Is a great liuo
plunger and Hcchtel and Bergey are two dandy tackles. Leo Lynch Is the bbt
center playiug Independent football, and Wilson is a star guard.
5 Tit A yd! as it may seem, the best backfield man on the field was
Kept on the bench, llert Yeabsley did not get into the game,
'' ichich, to us, looked like a big boner on Conshohoeken' s part. Bert is
a great line plunger, a good man at catching a forward pass and a
hear on the defense. Keeping Yeahley out of a football game is like
benching Ty Cobb in the world series.
Penn State Should Be Invited
"KTQW that Harvard has called off the Pasadena trip the chances are that
JN unother eastern team will be Invited to play on New Year's Day.
There Is one team in the Kant which should be Invited to make the trip.
It U I'tnn State, coached by Hugo Bezdek. To my mind. State had the most
" wmerful team In the Kast and would make It Interesting (or any eleven on tho
roast Furtheriuprc,sBexdrk know the western tyle and would have Els team

Export Thinks Weight Alone
Causod Defeat at Hands of
' Jack Sharkey
WINNER DID THE RUSHING
By El) W. SMITH
Chicago, III.. Dec. S. The pity of
the whole thing about Jimmy Wilde is
that the little fellow has got to light
big men like Jack Sharkey. Weighing
only 10" or mi himself, he is fenced to
take on men who outweigh him by nt
leust ten pounds and possihl) mme lli.u.
that. Jimmy was beaten iu a Mil
waukee tight Satuida. night and got
quite a trouncing. Sharke. had it on
him iu the poundngc bj such u wiilt
margin that the ISiitiili terror proved
nothing but a mild semblance of what
his ndwnice notices Indicated.
There is nothing about the form that
Wilde showed Satuiday night that
would Indicate that he Is u world bentci
excepting in Ills own class. He isn't
a, bantamweight ami cannot cope suc
cessful! with the best of American
Iiautams. ,
The betting was ns good as II to 1
that AVilde would be returned the win
ner, and the Italians who wcie game
enough to follow their countrj iiiuu
through mnile unite a fortune.
Lncpccted Stunt
Sharkey's most unexpected stunt wus
pulled In the first ten seconds of tin
hum.' mid it won him the light light
theie. Instead of standing oil nml not
ing with Wilde, ns cverhoi. thought j
he would do, lie walked light up to the'
liiitish tenor anil smashed Mm on the1
nose. And the fresh litlli lMgn bo t
didn't stoji there and see what the'
effect of his effort was. lie kept ljgln (
on going and inside of thilt secouds-'i
or so Wilde wus no dlsconn ileil that
he was n thoroughly whipped man,
"lie M he is.
Tunic is little doubt that Wilde was
a sii. pi ised man during the first mill-I
ute of his battle. That any American
lighter should har the teniciit to step
right out and take the pla; uu fiom.
a man of Ills lcpututioii appealed to
completely llubbergnst the whole rolon.x.
Tlte couldn't understand "t all. After
that first terrible minute Jimmy neiei
gol into his right stride.
WluiteuT held Wilde up aud on lib
feet dining this tremendous bombard
ment will eer remain u mystery. Per
haps it was that Sharkey must go dmvt
Into ring histoid as a feather puncher
aud cannot knock the deiby lint off
jour head, eteu if lie takes u luuning

Appeared Bored
Wilde, entering the ring, gave out
the nupiesslou of great boredom. lie
seemed uttcrh out of joint with the
situation. lie accepted the kindly
offices ol the corner with much the I
manner of a mini tolall out ot s.un-l
path with what was going on around
him. Ills tired, stunned-looking tace '
indicated that even the reiompense of1
S11.IMHI or more was little or nothing
to liii.i. His mind might lime been
buck iu Wales for all he seemed to I
cai c. J
l'limi), but true that the prn e l
dropptd as soon us the fifth round had I
been entcied. Matt Hinkel. of Clcve- i
land, silting ut the nugside, was pre- I
paled to offer Jinilu us good us ,i7."p(I0
to bo tell rounds in his city within
the next two weeks. When the end of
the tenth round came the price lino,
dropped down to SlMHMI and Matt wast'"
eicu sure that he wanted him at that
figure.
.lohnii Coition, who sat at the ring
side with .limmj Harry and Hurry
l'orbes and other great former cham
pions, watched the work narrowly. He
said afterward that Wilde's work was
n6t impressive to him nnd thut he
would bet $1000 that he could beat
him right now in six rounds.
Forbes inclined to the belief thut
Wilde is making a mistake in giving
away so mucii weigni.

Tiinlnm defeated the Frenhllien jeatcrd.iy on ,
Von Sesal Field i'i to 0.
Chicago, Dec. R. Few baseball trades
have been mentioned since the close of
the season in-September, but. that is no
indication that the presidents of the
major league clubs, especlnlly those iu
the National League, have none In
mind Some of them have.
If would not be startling to hear of n
big deal or two being closed next week at
the meeting of that organization in Now
York, and the Cubs with President
Veeck nnd Manager Mitchell on the
scene are likely to put over one of the
biggest of the season with the Phila
delphia club. President Baker, of the
Phillies, was iu Chicago for two days,
in conference with Veeck, which ndds
to the possibility of a deal being made.
What the Cubs need is a left-handed
pitcher. Lppn llixey would be n lucky
find. lie seems to be the man in ques
tion. A left-hander is what Manager
Mitchell needs to beat teams like New
York and Cincinnati, the two clubs tlint
are expected td stnge a terrific tight for
the championship again next season.
Itixey had always been effective
against both these teams and would be
n tremendous asset to the North Side
tram, and tlint he will besecured is not
nt nil unlikely. Itixey is quo of the
best southpnw pitchers in the Nntionnl
League. He wus developed by Pat
Moran.
Presidents Veeck nnd Bnkcr would
not admit they had n deal on before thej
departed for the National League meet-
tieiievetl tney tuiKeu ot
did it probably will not
be closed until they reach New York
and hold n session with Manager Mit
chell legarding the exchange of plujcrs
and the amount of money to be involved.

Winter in tlui U. S. A.
(Translated from the original o Colonel Kipling's "Christmas in India")
11'Aitc iioi upon the I'olo Field, the sky Is gray and yellow,
As the Bugs sit down at stove tide, dull end wan;
And each waits and moans white calling to his fellow,
That the Winter League the TPirtfer League Is on;
Oh, the slush along the base lines and upon the pennant-chase lines,
Oh, the howling wind that hovers over earth; '
And in Cuba they are mobbing of tho umpire and TyeoWng,
What part have frozen exiles in their mirthf
Thick lee upon the South Side Fork, well primed for curling matches,
And in Cuba they arc beating out the bunt;
They are lathering the pellet, they are making funny catches.
As we're diving for the furnace on a hunt;
Oh, the chill that knows no 'breaking Oh, the doping and the faking,
Oh, the cnalcss blown injunction pitch and toss
We had Cuba bat we dumped her asked for waivers and then Jumped her,
And today we know the fullness of our loss.
Europe and the Boxing Game
EUIlOrE, meaning Great Britain nnd France In the main, has had a apley.
run of excitement In a boxing way, but very little international. luck ou
this side of the water.
Great Britain has never produced a heavyweight since Mitchell's day who
was even in line for a championship challenge, barring one man Bob Flts
Blmmons, the Cornlshmau, and Bob had been living in America many years
before he reached the top.
The wonder is that the British empire could produce a marvel of the Fit.
simmons type and then fail so utterly with all her other candidates.
rITE United States has not produced any too many heavyweight
marvels, but .your Uncle Samuel has always managed to have' at
least one head liner ready in ihe span between Sullivan and Dempsey.
Light and Heavy
IN THE lighter or lesser weights Great Britain has done much better with
such men as Freddy 'Welsh, Owen Moran and Jimmy Wilde. These car
ried class in copiouH quantities. But the gap between these and her heavy
weights has been another Oraud Canyon. I,cs Darcy stood out as a middle
weight, but not amoug the heavies. Bombardier Wells, Bill Squires and Jo
Beckett had every appearance of greatness in training. They had weight,
power and speed.
X1TELLS, Squires and Beckett could not absorb a punch without first
ff crumpling up.
