WEDNESDAY EVENING,
CLABBY AND GIBBONS MUST FIGHT FOR MIDDLEWEIGHT TITLE
JIMMY CLABBY MIKE GIBBONS
Here are the best two middleweight fighters in the world, Jimmy Clabby of Hammond, Ind., and Mike Gib
bons of St. Paul. They must come together before the middleweight cha mpionshlp may be established, and
the winner will be the best in the world. He will certainly hold the titl eof champion of America.
It is doubtful if there ever were two better middleweight boxers. "Kid* , ~McCoy says that Clabby is the equal
of Tommy Ryan at his best, and it I s admitted Gibbons is one of the greatest boxers the world has known.
Neither is as much of a fighter as Bob Fitzsimmons when he held the mi ddleweight title, nor Sam Langford
in the days when Sam could make 158 pounds, but it is doubtful if any man of this division ever equalled
them as boxers. Gibbons, who has been accused of trying to sidestep Clab by, said Thanksgiving Day he would
meet the Hammond man either in Milwaukee or New York. It depended on the club which could give the
largest purse. Unfortunately for the lovers of pugilism the cities where t he largest purses could be given for
this contest permit only ten rounds. A championship ought not to be fought under such conditions. With no
decision no championship can be settled without a knockout. When the women of California voted fighting
out of that State, where twenty-round championship bouts went to a decision, they made it almost impossible
to hold championship fights.
Hard Fight For Welsh
When He Meets Shugrue
Special to The Telegraph
New York, Dec. 2. —With the possi
ble exceptibn of Charley White,
Freddie Welsh, the lightweight cham
pion .will face the strongest opponent
he has met since he won the title from
Willie Ritchie, In London, last sum
mer, when he enters the ring against
Joe Shugrue at Madison Square Gar
den to-night.
Shugrue, who recently returned
from a most successful campaign in
Australia, is regarded seriously as a
championship possibility, .and, while
It Is impromable that he will knock
Welsh out in their coming bout and
thereby ascend to the lightweight
throne, the bout will furnish an ex
cellent line upon the New Jersey
fighter as a titular prospect.

Brickley Wants a Job;
Would Like to Be a Coach
Special to The Telegraph
Cambridge, Mass., Dec. 2.—Captain
Brickley, of Harvard's champion foot
ball team, is out for a berth as foot
ball coach in some college in or near
New York, in which city he plans to
start in business after his graduation
in June.
"It Is my present plan and hope to
coach next Fall, but not at Harvard,"
,said Brickley.
"I Intend to work In New York after
graduation. It would be preferable,
then, to coach a team within reason
able distance of that city. It is my
Idea that it would be foolish to accept
a one-year contract as a football
coach. In one year I could not do
justice to myself nor to the team I
coached. It would not be fair for any
of the parties concerned to attempt to
build up a winning combination in one
year.
"I consider that my value as a coach
would come from my long connection
with the Haughton system of football
as taught at Harvard, not from any In
dividual ability as a player."
BASKETBALL AT MIDDLETOWN
In the Middletown basketball Lea

GUS ZIEGLER FAVORS
FOOTBALL CHANGES
Former Penn Star Wants New In
terference Provisions; Tells
About Forward Pass
Special to The Telegraph
Philadelphia, Dec. 2. —Changes in
football rules will come up for dis
cussion soon after the Christmas holi
days. A general opinion prevails that
the committee on rules will have very
little to do.
Gus Zelgler, a former Penn star,
and late coach of the University of
West Virginia, says changes must
come and will offer suggestions to the
experts.
"My players found it quite difficult
to interpret the rules, especially those
I governing the forward pass. They
are not at all clear and officials ruled
differently in every game. In one
contest the ball was knocked out of
the passer's hand just as he drew his
arm back to throw it. The pigskin
did not travel forward and was re
covered by one of my men, who made
a touchdown. The piay was called
back, and the official called it an in
completed forward pass. On the fol
lowing Saturday a pass was blocked
before the ball crossed the line of
scrimmage, and it was ruled a fum
ble. The definition of a forward pass
should be made more clear next year,
so as to give the officials and players
a chance to know what they are do
ing.
"Another rule that needs doctoring
is the one which allows interference
on the part of the passer's side before
the ball Is passed. The rule reads
that 'there shall be no interference
after the ball has been passed,' and
many complications have arisen be
cause of the play. One team would
send the linemen out to get the defen
sive backs, and block them off until a
man on the passer's side got the ball.
These linemen sometimes would run
into the backfleld men, but more often
would stand In front of them. If the
man on the defense ran forward he
would crash into an opponent. That
is interference, pure and simple, but
few penalties were given on the play.
"It is almost Impossible, in these
days, to interfere before the ball is
passed. A couple of years ago the
passer could run back and forth be
hind his own line before he tossed the
ball, but he cannot do it now. The
players are taught to rush in and
hurry the pass, and the passer gen
erally gets rid of the ball as quickly
as possible."
BITS OF SPORTS
It is said the Chifeds will offer Wal
ter Johnson a three-year contract at
16,000 a year.
Robert B. Ward, manager of the
Brooklyn Feds, says Lee Magee has
signed a three-year contract.
In the Casino League bowling series,
the Colonials last night defeated the
Orpheums, margin 115 pins.
The Feds won from the Athletics in
the P. R. R. Y. M. C. A. bowling series
last night, margin 145 pins, and mov
ed into first place.
Howard Parker Tolman, of Valley
i Springs, N. Y., was elected captain
of the Rutgers eleven.
John B. M<*Auliff, of Worcester,
Mass., will captain the Dartmouth
. football team next season.
GIRLS' BASKETBALL TEAM
Annville, Pa., Dec. 2.—A girls' bas
ketball team will be organized at Leb

amazing growth of the game. Alto
gether eighty new clubs, having 15,000

CHRISTMAS TOYS SUPPLIED BY
AMERICAN MAKERS.
"There is no danger of a Christmas
toy famine on account of the Euro
pean war. Some kinds of playthings
for which this country has been de
pendent upon Germany may not be
so abundant as formerly, but Ameri
can manufacturers are already pro
ducing toys to an annual value almost
equal to that of the German imports,
and American children are no longer
exclusively supplied from Nurem
berg," says the December Popular
Mechanics Magazine In an Illustrated
article.
"The center of the American toy
Industry Is at Winchendon, Mass.,
where several of the most Important
factories are located. Opposite the
railway station in this city Is an
enormous hobbyhorse, and this sym
bol very nearly tells the story in re
gard to the city's Industries. Even
before the war broke oui, of every
kind were being produced In enor
mous quantities in this city. These
Included even the Noah's arks, which
for many years were turned out ex
clusively by German makers. The
situation is one that may result in a
big change in the toy-making In
dustry." ..

ORI'HEUM
Captain Louis Sorcho, celebrated
deep sea diver and submarine engineer,
is attracting unlimited attention at the
Orpheum this week. The attention is
due not only to his interesting exhibi
tion of the dangers that confront those
who follow submarine work, a topic of
which the public generally speaking is
practically ignorant, but of the import
ance attached to the presence of Cap
tain Sorcho himself, in Harrisburg.
I Those who follow metropolitan news-
I papers as well as the current maga
| zlnes have undoubtedly come to know
I Mr. Sorcho as a "big" man. He has de
voted untiring ingenuity in this one
line of work, accomplishing much, and
he Is looked jpon to-day as the most
accomplished man who has ever donned
the diving suit. While his noto
riety probably emanated from his ex
cellent work In recovering the sunken
Maine and 132 of the bodies that went
down with It, there are many dther big
pieces of work he has been assigned to,
such as the Slocum disaster. Through
his cautious observation of the dangers
that confront the diver, Mr. Sorcho has
done more than any other man to les
sen these dangers, his invention of
the submarine telephone being easily
the most Important of these. At the
Orpheum he actually brings a small
ocean and ship on the stage. His dem
onstration Is more than interesting.
The Orpheum's bill throughout is clever
and diverting.—Advertisement.
COLONIAL
The vaudeville novelties that are
pleasing Colonial audiences in unusual
fashion for the first half of the week
embrace "Felix." the mind-reading
Duck, the American Trumpeters, splen
did musicians and vocalists; J. J. Mor
rison and company, presenting a clever
protean sketch, and Kern and Zell,
blackface funsters. "The Phantom
Detective' is also pleasing as a special
attraction in moving pictures. The
cream of the bill for the last half of
the week will be the first local appear
ance of the Apace Opera company, of
six vocalists, offering a delightful vocal
and scenic production.—Advertisement.
