Has Rounded Jp Many Famous
Athletic Stars; Succeeds
Late Mike Murphy
Special to The Telegraph
Philadelphia, April !).—According
to all reports the University of Penn
sylvania has decided to select George
S. Connors, trainer to the football
team, who for thirteen years has been
the trainer of all the athletic teams
of Exeter Academy. It has been stat
ed that Mr. Connors will be appoint
ed by Truxton llare, the chairman of
the football committee.
Connors has produced winning track
teams at Exeter and his conditioning
of the football teams had been such
as to cause comment by many of the
New England colleges. He was an
old-time distance runner and in 181)3
competed at the world's fair cham
pionships, hi Chicago. Because he
has had more football experience than
Rny of the trainers who were suggest
ed. he secured the post. Lavvson Rob
ortsuri, of the Irish-American A. C.,
was the only other man seriously con
sidered by the committee. The won
derful track training skill of the New
Yorker, and the fact that he was rec
ommended by "Ted" Meredith, Donald
Lippincott and Captain Albert Jour
neay, gave him an excellent chance.
Robertson, unfortunately, had little
or no experience with football elevens,
and for this reason the Penn football
colons thought that Connors, with
■Thirteen years of active service, would
be the best man.

Moran Critically III;
Has Short Time to Live
Special to The Telegraph
New York, April 9.—News comes
from England that Owen Moran hns
contracted tuberculosis nnd It Is feared
that he has but a short time to live.
Moran's last appearance here was
with Young Shugrue at .the Garden
last. January. At that time the clever
little Englishman showed that there
was something amiss with him, as he
was forced to stop after boxing seven
rounds.
Next to Jem Driscoll, Moran was
probably the best featherweight Eng
land ever sent over to this country.
He held Abe Attell even in three hard
battles when the American champion
was at his best. Moran also has the
distinction of being the only boxer to
make Battling Nelson take the full
count. This happened in 1910 at San
Francisco.
That feat marked the turning point
in Moran's ring career. In subsequent
battles ho failed to show his best form
and after losing to Ad Wolgast grad
ually went down hill. He still retained
his skill as a boxer, but his stamina
and hitting ability left him. In his
bout with Shugrue he made a show of
the Jersey lightweight while bis
strength lasted, but he was unable to
stand the pace and rather than suffer
a knockout he stepped to the ropes
at the end of the seventh round and
gave up the contest, saying he was
through with the ring for all time.
"Bunny" Reagen Dead;
Was Famous Kicker
Special to The Telegraph
Philadelphia, April 9. —Followers of
athletics at Penn learned with much
regret yesterday of the death of
Charles W. ("Bunny") Reagen, quar
terback on the Red and Blue eleven
of 1907 and 1908, who died at his
home In St. Albans, Vt, on Sunday
night. He was 2f> years old and has
been in poor health for several years.
Reagen came from Exeter Academy
and was in the 1909 class in the dental
department at Penn. He made a big
reputation as a drop kicker on the
freshman team in his first year in col
lege and distinguished himself in the
game with the Cornell freshmen, when
he kicked a field goal from the 54-
yard line.
OLD TIMKK DIES
Special to The Telegraph
Quincy, Mass., April 9.—Charles W.
Ganzel, a clever baseball catcher of a
quarter century ago, died here yes
terday after a year's illness. Ganzel

and ho was a member of the Big Four
sold to Boston by Detroit for $25,000,

and tributes were bestowed on players I
with clean lives, at a banquet held j
here last night, during the speech j
made by the Rev. Dr. Thomas W.
Davis, baseball chaplain of the Phila- I
delphia Athletics.
Dr. Davis delivered his address,
"The Baseball Game of Life." He
brought forth applause when he se
verely criticised Billy Sunday for
classing "Rube" AVaddell with "Bugs"
Raymond In a comparison with Plank
and Mathewson recently. "I have
known 'Rube' for eleven years,' he
said, "and I believe ho was a sufferer
of tuberculosis, which sooner or later
would have caused his death, and I do
not believe that it was caused by the
use of intoxicating drinks."
"Waddell was a big, kind-hearted;
fellow," Dr. Davis said, and his eye
glistened and voice trembled as he told
of the many kind acts the great pitcher
did for his fellow players. "lio was

said.
Dr. Davis paid a slowing tribute to
Connie Mack and the Athletics when
he said that baseball is a clean and
manly sport. "Some people criticise
ball players as being: a set of
'boozers'." he said, "but take, for ex

There is a man who never swears,
