It not lienor, uiun nii.v ( other university in the country. However, or as some sny, on the other hand, the fact reiimlns that the nald history Is sprinkled with a few vecorsoH Vnf nnp nthletp has EODP through two seasons and part of nuothcr without having anythlug toi do with a Pennsylvania defeat. That's soft for some athletes, l-'riu-stance, Fred Mitchell, the newly elected aptnln of the lied and nine harriers, hni neycr been a pnrty of n Quaker beating on the grjiliron. but this is nn honcst-to-gosh example. Doesn't Know Defeat There's one young man In Penn uports who has played in thirty-four contests In a wee bit over two seasons ind doesn't know wlint it is to be trim med. And he's not a" poker player either. , . Dannv McNichol, son of the late James P. McNichol. nnd a member of a family., famous in athletics, is the joung man who hns hung up this re markable record. This is believed to be n record and no one can prove that it isn't, it they can they art invited to do BO. nofnrn this varn goes any further let it be clearly understood that fool ball is not the sport in which Danny ,n fcitf'Min of victories. Dan is well acquainted witn the dregs that como with gridiron defeats. Basketball Big Sport Dan's big sport is basketball and for more than two yenra he has been prancing on the Weightman Hall court nnd on foreign floors mid always Pcnu has been victorious. He started with the freshman team . of two jenrs ago, anu right at the be ginning he set records. 'Hit yearling (milntet of that senson breezed through Ibo fcdicdute without dropping a game and nineteen were won. It was one ot tho best freshman teams ever turned out at any college, nnd whenever they ' 1 were matched against the varsity it was better than an intercollegiate game. , Last season Dan made the varsity i hands down, beating out Joe Mitchell, a seasoned veteran, for a guard posi tion. And last ear every game he nlnvcd In was a victory. Early last season young McNichol was stricken with grip and was iu his bed when ths squad left for New Haven for a game with Yale. The Hlue hand ed the Quakcis a defeat that night, but that can't be charged against Danny s record. PENN LEADS NAVY Quaker Five Holds 23-10 Advantage "" at Halftlme AnnnnnlU. Dec. 'JO.

DEW1PSEY DEMANDS L Theodore Vienne Representa tive Says French Have Too Many Taxes to Pay NO PROFITS FOR PROMOTER Mllwaulice, Wis., Dec. 20. That Jack Kcnrns. manager of Jack Deinp sey, will have to reduce his demands for 50 per cent of the receipts for a bout with Ocorgrsf Cnrpentier iu Paris next .Tnlv imfl tho ufittpmont made todav by II. P. Stelnel. Milwaukee representntive of Theodore Vienne and his associates. Mr. Steinel snid thnt it Ik entirely out of the ijtiestlon for a promoter in franco lo pnv nny such percentage, and he figures that a million -dollar gate would have to be tnken in before there would be nny profit. , There are several taxes to pay by a French promoter. First, there is the war tax on amusements which amounts to 10 per cent. Then comes the 10 per cent poor tnx, which goes to a fund !.,.unio ,m,i Hitnllv. it is the cus tom iu France to give 10 per cent of the entire receipts to the newspapers iu lieu of advertising. . Of course, in a big contest like the Carpentier-Oempsey match, the "fwsr paper perceutnge would undoubtedly cut down to ."i per cent, lie said. "Thus, the promoter would have 7i n,.r cent to work with. Out of this Dcmpscy would demand two-thirds o the money, having 'X, per cent to pay Carncntier aud all the promotion ex penses, said Jlr.
