Washington and Jeffer.on and West Virnlnla are believed to be the Interested parties. Moran put Centre on the map last year and gained it national reputatiou. This year he brought his team North nnd Kent it against Harvard. The game was one of the moht exciting of the season, the Crinifon ulnnlug after the Southerner had taken the lead Id the flrat half. After the Harvard gnme injuries kept several of the star plajer.s on the sidelines und the ca.on was not so fucce.vsful as In 1011). If Moran decides to go to either college, he will turn out a strong team. He is one of tho best offensive coaches In the country nnd has many bewildering plajs. With n Kotxl line coach to work with him, be cannot help but h.j big success. While on the subject- of football, it might b" well to mention that l'enn State will play in 1'hlladelphin next year despite the fact she ws dropped from l'enn's i-rhcilule.

Shenandoah Celebrates TUFA' celebrated the football season up in Shenandoah Monday night. They meaning the citizens of that hustling upstate city got together, arranged a testimonial banquet. Invited all of tho football players, turned them looae on a quarter of a ton of roast turkey, presented them with silver footballs ajid a pleasant time was bad. It was a real, sincere, whole-hearted celebration, and more than 300 pervons .gathered in the Eagles' Hall to tet a close-up on the proceedings. Hankers, doctors, lawyers, merctiants, coal miners in fact, everybody was there They heard all about the glorious victories on the fridiron. games were played over again and at the end no one dared question the title of "chnmpions of the coal region." When a celebration is held up in Shenandoah there is no doubt about it. Nothing was left undone. He-cause the affair was in honor of the football team, the hall was decorated in true gridiron style, with goal postH at enrh end and 10-yard lines ou the floor. The yellow and black colors of Shenandoah were everywhere. Dr. John C. Gallagher, the toastmaster. introduced many orators. Dan Ferguson the hanker, who is known as "Lawyer" FeTguson, told about the growth of the city; Joe Sepa'uley, manager of the football teum, and Captain Donovan made brief addresseu on the work of the players, and Dr. M.

When everything was all set for n closed shop, so far as cash deals were concerned, up steps llranch ltlckcy with nn announcement that Rogers Hornsby. the premier slugger of the National League, was for sale and could be pur chased at a reduced price meaning $100,000. Last summer MrGraw offered 2TiO.O0O. but the offer was scorned by the boss of the Cards. Now Jwn Jay has M-orncd Rickey's offer. Ho scorns best who scorns last. Too much publicitv has almost ruined Hornsby. Stories that he was about to be sold for a fabulous sum have made him dissatisfied with his lot. caused him to demand a higher salary and got him In bad with the other players. ' It couldn't be otherwise. Every time he made an error, no matter how hard the chance was, it was claimed he was not trying nnd reeking his release. This was an injustice, because Hornsby always played hard and gave the best he had. It is doubtful if the slugger will be on the market very long. Cincinnati and Chicago need second basemen and arc willing to pay a reasonable price. Three other clubs, are in the same ccmdltiQn, but won't part with much money. GAKRY Hi:i:itMASK has stated rmphatically that llrinie (Jroh is not for sale, trhich means the Redi irill make every effort to get out in front ticjf year. Hornsby would fit in trrll at second base on that club in fact, on AS'Y cUib. Cortclyou on the Job DIRECTOR CORTBIA'OU did the proper thing when he suspended Bobby Iiurman. "Nig" Hajes unit Referee Keenan for the fre-for-all nt the National last Saturday night. Things like that cannot be countenanced here, and the sooner the boxers and managers realise it the better. The rules should be rigidly enforced in the ' future, i Little flare-ups like that are bound to occur, and when they are settled quickly and punishment handed out the game will not suffer. With a man like Director Cortclyou in charge, the boxing fans need not worry. TONIGHT Tctc Herman and Joe Lynch will battle for the bantamweight championship of the world.

Herman and Lynch agreed to weigh in at 2 o'clock Oils afternoon at 118 pounds and each was said to be slightly under that figure. Roth reported they were in excellent condition and fit for a hard battle. The chnmpion's word shows bim to be a slow starter, spading up us the 1 contest progresses, nnd thus shows to advantage in long bouts Lynch hab scored several knockouts in recent con tents, notably his victory over Jack Sharkey. , A diamond studdtd belt emblematic of the title, will be given to the winner.

JAKFi: pHICK SIMLER is supposed to bo a regular tough guy. He is coming here with that reputation from Scrnn ton. Pa., but It Is hard to realize how Chick expects to enjov his Christmas dinner unless he outwits Kris Kringlc by putting on the "feed bag" 11 daj ahead of time. Whenever nn opponent gets through with lienny Leonard, or rather, vice versa, said opponent has little, thought for digestion, nnd it is likely that Hinder will not have to worry about dyspepsia tablets for dessert on Christ mas afternoon. Still, the champion himself doesn't think that way himself. "That boy Simler gave me 11 vcrj tough tight in fact, one of the tough est of my career, iu November. lOlli," is what Leonard says of the Scranton lad. who weighs in the neighborhood of 1!58 pounds. Chick guve Kenny 11 hard ten-round bout four years ago in Xew York. During the war, and while Slmler was In the navy, he was matched by Herman Taylor to meet Lew Tendler, local star, but the contest nejer wus put on as the ship on which Chick was stationed wnt to sea and he was unable to get a furlough. Simler is no newcomer in the ring, ns he has been boxing for ubout six rnrs, still his set-to with Leonard here on Christians afternoon nt the Olympin will be the sTcronton scrapper s maiden appearance in Philadelphia. The Simler scrap will he a forerun ner to Leonard's tifteen -round chum pionship mix with Itlchie Mitchell in New York next month.
