RINCETON wen a football came Saturday and. in the excitement of the

positive first.
Philadelphia was a football center last
Saturday night. With coaches and former stars
from practically nil thp bfg teams in the East
gathered here, the principal topic of discissien
was Princeton's victory and the right of the
Tigers te claim the title. And, without excep
tion, the wise men of the gridiron game declared
that Hill Heper and his men must rest en their
ears, se te speak, until Cernell had faced Penn.
Cernell has had a comparatively easy
schedule. Compared with the battles that have
been fmu'ht by Princeton, Penn, Pitt, Lafayette,
W. and J., Navy, Army nnd ether leading
elevens of the East, the Ithaeans have been

Brown's 3-0 win ever Harvard mny be placed in the upset class, but it

What is the cause of the football upsets this year? That question was
put te several men who rank high In the grid brain department. One said
it-was the green material en many leading teams that made it a problem hew
lenf any one eleven could pursue a winning course.
But, when all is said and done, isn't it the open game, the opportunity
for the offense te sink the psychological punch into the mid-section of the
defense, that makes almost any fenth.ill battle an uncertain quantity?
By the way, while we are discussing the gridiron situation, let ns net
forget that West Virginia team coached by Tubby Spears. It tum
bled Virginia last Saturday 13-0. Princeton, en n wet field and in nn early early
aeasen game, wns hard put te beat Virginia 5-0. However, it Is the fact
that West Virginia, with victories ever Pitt nnd Indiana and a clean slate,
has shown exceptional gridiron strength, which prompts the suggestion that

But the Tigerx wen and deserved tbe victor. because they displayed the

INenr the end of the g-inie ress, the giant Ml guard, broke through nnd

l.lke n flash up went (iermnn's arm ns a signal for a free catch, the ball
actually hit u Blue jirsey en the back, and the Tigers get a ili-yard advance
leward the enemy goal line, n penalty for lale interference.
Then when the game was nearly ended and Princeton had the ball under
ier own goal pests, with about two seconds te go, the Tigers went Info kick

CHANEY WILL TRY

Baltimore Southpaw Will Net
Retire Frem the Ring
This Year
HE MEETS PITTS TONIGHT
star
By LOOS H. JAFFB
TVJllIXfl the summer three
-' lightweights, one being Champien
Benny Leenard himself, threatened te
quit the ring after the start of the
new year, mth a little mere than
a month te go, it seems threats of
these boxers, the ethers belns Geerse
Chaney nnd Johnny Dundee, will prove
only premises, or something like that.
It is almost a certainty that Leon Leen
ard is te defend his title against Charley
mte at the i.nmen in New xertt
some time in January, while Dundee
nnd Cbaney are getting in shape te
keep busy with their trusty dukes
during the remainder of the 1022-23
sensen.
Chaney, who is te meet Charley
Pitts, former Australian and new re.
siding in New Yerk, nt the Otyrepla
tonight in the final of five scheduled
eight -reunders, arrived in Philadelphia
from Baltimore last night. Geerge has
changed his tune about quitting the
game, saying:
"I don't see why they labeled me
for retirement. I'm going te try te
benst by string of knockouts te 100
before I even think et hanging up the
old gloves."
Lure of the lucre for leather push
ers, especially when they are in the
running for big money, Is a hard mat
ter te overcome.
Jacksen Still
Gleaning the Geld
Although it has been believed that
Willie Jacksen, of New Yerk, would
step going te the pest shortly thoughts
of the boxer himself are from giving
up the hit or get hit pastime. To
night in the first part of a double
wind-up Jacksen will make his Phila
delphia debut under the management
of Sammy Geldman in a set-te with
Johnny Mealy.
Recently Jncksen separated from Dec
Ilagley when the latter, with the con
sent of Willie, turned the lightweight
ever te Geldman. Jacksen went te
Het Springs, Ark., where he rested for
about a month nnd blnce he has been
in diligent training. Jncksen meets
a meun right -hand puncher in Mealy
and he will have te show some of his
old-time form te win.
Harvey Bright, n Brooklyn boxer,
will appear in the main prelim. His
opponent will be Y.atX Ifartman, of
Seuth Philadelphia. This will be Earl's
first bout since suffering an Injured
band. He is In geed shape.
Nate Carp, latest acquisition te Un
stable of Sammy Harris, who also has
Chaney In tow, will go en against
Marty Kane, of the Seventeenth Ward,
In a ll weight fracas.
Jee Welsh will make his initial an
pejrance of the 1022-23 season in the
opening match, meeting Harry Onlfund,
of New Yerk. Welsh has been anxious
te keep busy in welterweight competi
tion nnd Jimmy Truiner hopes te hnvc
the Smoky Hellew fistman lined up
for the best of tbe 147-peunders this
season.
Wally Illndde Alse
Seeks Welter Prestige
Anether Seuth Philadelphia boxer
who Is seeking prestige as 'a welter
weight fistman is Wally Hlnckle, of
Ornys Perry, winner of the Geerge F.
Tawllng 147-pound belt during the
summer at the Ice Palace. Inclden
tally. Wally insists that he was net
defeated by Johnny McLaughlin at
Norristown last week.
Hlnckle is one of many Pbiladel
plilnns who has te go out of town te
order te get matches. Jee Crosseu,
who leeks after Wally 's affairs, at
present is negotiating with promoters
in Hazieten ana wiikes-Unrre for
Hlnckle's services.
Since Joining hands with Crossen
Hlnckle has never been set back de
cUUely and Jee believes that Wally
could give uny of the welters Includ
ing the new boss, Mickey Walker, n
tough time of it in a four-cornered
circle.
Wnlly does net draw the color line
and says that he is ready te accomo accemo accome

opponent.

and therefore would be in the running
for the crown.

Jeck's Prediction Correct
WIHIii: Pitt's victory ever W. and J.
was net totally unexpected, the
overwhelming score, 19-0. curried the
big punch in the way of u surprise.
Jeck Sutherland, Lafayette conch, pre
dicted after the Presidents beat the Ma Ma Ma
reon that they would fall before gar
ner's band, and n prominent official
who saw the gnme said November 4
was the only day In 1H22 that Neale s
eleven could defeat the Kastenlnns.
The Panthers were doped by many
te win by a small margin, but as far

A forward pass in the third period
TTIOOTBALTj rules in many points need official interpretation before they eta
T be understood by players, but the' book ia particularly clear and definite en
safeties and touchbacks.
In view of this, it is peculiar that gridiron athletes ie often become puttied
then n touchback or safety occurs in a game.
Itwaa evident en Bnturdny that a Penn player misunderstood the touchback
rules and bis ignorance cost his alma mater IB yards. The Red and Blue wen
and it doesn't' make any difference new, but often three chalk lines will Ien
football game.
The play occurred in the third period. Penn punted and the ball dribbled
through Palm's legs without touching him.
A Penn man touched the ball and it became dead B yards from the goal
Referee McOarty gave the oval te State en the 20-yard line and the spectators
wondered what it was all about. Here is the reason, found in Section IS,
Rule 6:
' "It is a touchback when A player who is offside and within the oppe eppe
nents 10-yard line is touched by a ball kicked by one of his own tide."
The Penn player, of course, was offside. If he had net touched the ball
and If It stepped bouncing before going ever the goal line, State would have hid
te kick from behind its own pests.
e
rIB Nlttany Liens new knew hew the Quakers felt after losing te
Pittsburgh. Tex Hamer also can sympathize fully with Mike Pain.
They both have missed goals when successful tries would have meant
tied instead of defeats.
At Last New Yerk Dees Something for Dejrlng
THE New Yerk Stnte Athletic Commission has done many things te cui
.confusion among the boxers and public. The dethroning of the champions
was a joke nnd a huge one, but the "cemmlsh" is new en the right track.
BlUy Muldoon and his fellow commissioners are attempting te squelch th
tinhorn gamblers and chase them out of the game.
. The first move of the commission along this line was net tactful. It was
the announcement made prier te the Britten-Wnlker bout te the effect that all
bets were off. This would have caused many spectators te believe the bout was
fixed had the two welters net put up such a thrilling fight.
However, the commission took wise action in barring a number of the
well-known gnmbjers from the clubs and last Thursday night at the Villa
Goldstein bout a vigil was kept en all doers. Nene of the outcasts put la an
appearance.
Furthermore, the commission placed men throughout the crowd with instruc
tions and authority te eject any one attempting te make bets. These officers
had no occasion te show their authority. The spectators were very orderly.
MULDOON waa gratified by the success of his campaign, but he will
net relinquish his efforts te eliminate the menace of gambling.
