After Johnny Tillman tapped the bell sending Eddie Wagond and Tummy Jamison on their wav in the final bout at the Broadway I Athletic Club, last night, all was con fusion. After six rounds of whirlwind i slugging that kept the spectators on ] their feet in a frenzy Jamison was en- j titled to a hairline verdict. It was an eleventh-hour rally staged ! in the closing round that brought the verdict to Jamison. He kept pumping J a shower of left uppercuts to Wagond's j Ja-*- that had the Italian's head bobbing ; back and forth. I'p until the final round the rumpus was about even. Jamison got off to a j lead, several times rocking Wagond with a long, rangy left swing to the chin.

Baldridge, the New England j heavyweight wrestling champion, has j given the wrestling team officials of | Yale a chill by announcing that he will ] not compete in the tournaments of the ; team this winter because of a slight I injury which might be aggravated by ! a strenuous season on the. mat. He has left the team, but Coach Izzy Win ters was delighted to-day by the pre liminary showing of Larry Fox, the oarsman*and football player. Fox is the unique character of the recent football season. He was one *f Yale's best varsity oarsmen last sea son. but he had not played football till I after the recent season opened. His wonderful physical utility, however, I was an asset which inexperience did not cloud and he was given constant coaching by Heffeltlnger. Glass, Mert ing and Brides, Yale's galaxy of guard coaches, which developed him remark ably the last month of the season. Fox. who hails from Philadelphia, is a hardy Norseman, standing 6 feet 6 inches tall and weighing 210 pounds. His great reach and height are cer tain to make him the most unique figure of the present indoor season on the mat. and already Coach Winters is confident that he has uncovered a wonder. Yale's schedule for the season was to-day announced as follows: Febru ary 10, Columbia, at New York; Feb ruary 17, Pennsylvania, at New Ha ven; February 24, Annapolis, at An napolis; March 3, New England inter collegiate championships at Boston; March 10, Princeton, at Princeton. Wolstencroft Wins Shoot; One Clay Bird Gets Away Philadelphia. Dec. 22.—Shooting at a wonderful clip. William T. Wolsten croft led the field of gunners who shot over the traps of the Independent Gun Club yesterday at Holmesburg Junc tion with 99 out of 100 clays. The event was a testimonial clay pigeon shoot to Fred Stone, the comedian, who is an enthusiastic target shot, and despite the disagreeable day a fair crowd of gunners popped away at the flying clays. The event was a dead bird added handicap one and which resulted in a nip-and-tuck race between Wolsten croft, Chief Bender and A. P. Hoffman for high actual scoring honors. Wol stencroft and Bender shot from scratch and the Indian broke one less than the yeteran wing and target shot. Stone shot along with the field and had the satisfaction of finishing with 98 down, breaking 94 of his flyers and carrying a dead bird handicap of four. His father also handled the shotgun and succeeded in breaking 77 of his century. ! One woman gunner, Mrs. A. Moul ten, shot at 50 disks and after running j up 47 did not compete in the final 50.

It is likely they will not play here next season, but another team may take the place of Gettysburg, Each year Gettysburg has raised Its until now they receive 60 per cent, of the net gate receipts an<Vexpensei. Now they give notice that tne general admission price must be raised, and this demand the local team's management flatly refuses. HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH ! Memphis Wants Joe Tinker to Lead Southern Team Memphis, Tenn., Dec. 22.—1f Joe Tinker wants a berth managing a minor league ball club he can have it right here in this town by simply ap plying to the Memphis Southern Asso ciation club. When the owners of the local club became aware that Tinker's day as a Cub leader was over they instantly decided to make the once great shortstop an offer to manage the local team,-and if the Cubs will let Joe come here and he is willing he will be tendered a contract as good as uny minor league club In the country can offer. * , Interest here In baseball has been booming for the last two years and when George Moriarty, the former De troit and White Sox star, who man aged the team last year, decided to take a job umpiring on Ban Johnson's staff of umpires for the coming season , it left the Chicks without a manager. Moriarty made a hit with the fans last summer, and, while not a howling suc cess as a leader, he nevertheless brought a flavor of big league ball into i Memphis, and the fans having tasted of that essence want more of it. Hence the desire for Tinker. Darcy Is Due Tuesday; Australian on Atlantic New York. Dec. 22. Unless storms and shipwrecks intervene to delay his boat or cast him up on desert islands, Les Darcy, the mystery of the Atlantic, will plant his feet in this city some time next Tuesday. This Information leaked out yesterday, and, although Tex Rickard would not contlrm it, he let it be known he was certain of the Australian fighter's arrival next week, j Rickard has been in wireless com- I munication with Darcy several times j since he started the wild scramble for ii bouts by announcing his intention to match Georges Carpentier with some one. He knows the boat on which Darcy is a passenger or a sailor, and j says that when the proper times comes .he will let the public in on his se cret. Considering the number of self-con fessed managers for Darcy, it is too bad the day of his arrival should be come known, for the antipodean champion doesn't like crowds, and "crowd" would be a poor description for the gathering that will be on hand to look after Darcy's interests. Rickard is uncertain as to the prob able opponent of Darcy. The perform ance of Jack Dillon and Billy Mlske Tuesday night left no choosing be tween those scrappers, and Rickard believes Mike Gibbons would be a splendid adversary for the visitor. Heiress Needs $300,000 Just to Tide Her Over ' New York, Dec. 22. Mrs. ,-Olga ! Florman, oppressed by the high cost :of living, has sought an order from the surrogate's court to obtain at once 1300,000 from the state of her I father, Charles Kohler, so that she t can keep body and soul together for ! a few months, when she will receive I one-third of her father's residuary estate of $2,000,000. I If she can hold out until then she will not have to scrimp so, for when she reaches the age of twenty-tive, she gets SIOO,OOO from her father's estate and there will be another SIOO,OOO when she is thirty-five and still an other when she is forty. Now all she has, except the SSO a j week, which her husband, Nils, earns, is an annual allowance of $25,000, and | there's the baby to buy things for, too. | In her application Mrs. Florman j made objections to the accounting of the executors. She asserted that the i trusts set aside by them were more than sufficient to pay the incomes I provided by her father for herself, [ her mother and two sisters. 1 The $300,000, she pointed out, could j just as well be taken out of the excess t income, which she estimates at $1 - ; 209,318. When Mrs. Florman asked some ' aso for $25,000 a year, she told the court her apartment cost $5,000 a year and her cottage at Sands Point $2,000 each month she maintained it, | and that she owed $15,-000 on $20,000 I worth of furniture. Cannon Balls of 1776 Dug Up at Monmouth j Tennent, N. J., Dec. 22. While grading near the church at Old Ten nent, on the historic battlefield of Monmouth, employes of I. S.

While Connie Mack has to sign up every one of his players but two for next year's race, he treasures an optimistic view of the Athletics for the 1917 dash. In building over his machine for the past two seusons Mack now feels confi dent thut when the team steps on the Held in the spring it will be the best he has shown Philadelphia fans since he dismantled the famous club which won international fame by its feats. To put the 1917 outfit upon the field the boss of the Athletics will have to discover a man for second and third base, get an outfielder to aid Strunk and Thrasher, and develop enough pitchers to help out Joe Bush, Elmer Meyers and Jack Nabors. His catch ing statf is intact and will consist of Schang, Myer. Haley and Picinich. This is the only department in which he will not experiment. Stuily Mclnnls and Elmer Meyers aro the only two men with holdover contracts. Lajoic is Out Lajole will not be back on the team, for last fall his name was scratched off the reserve list and the great vet eran became a free agent. To till up that vacancy at second Mack is de pending much upon Cable, who played second base for the Newark Interna tional League club last year. Cable is a right-handed lead off man and one who ought to till the bill, according to Mack. He also has Lowry and Grover to fall back upon. Witt will naturally be stationed at short, but third base is also an uncertain proposition, for beside Pick and Headley he is pinning much confidence in Bates, the Pacific coast star. Bates is rated as a good fielder and fair hitter, and will prob ably be the man to get the assignment. The pitching staff Is the problem which is causing Mack much specula tion these days. In Bush, Meyers and Nabors he lias only three veteran flingers and the latter two are only over cutting their eye teeth in the majors. The Athletics will not eliminate any of the twenty-ilve-cent scats at Shlbe Park next season, according to Mack. No matter what the Phillies do as a result of the League action to cut down the two-bit sections, the Mack men will retain the 4,000 seats in which the fans can now sit for a quar ter. Bits From Sportland Cornell for the first time in many years will not have a hockey seven. Lack of suitable opportunities for practice Is the reason assigned—a very adequate reason. LeGore, who was induced by Cap tain Taft to try for the Yale basketball five, is making rapid progress and may appear in the regular line-up. Brown's successful football season has started talk of a stadium among the alumni. It is hoped that a new structure will have reared its walls by 1919. As one swallow does not make a summer, neither Is one successful season likely to make a stadium. A Cornell graduate has suggested Grieg's Sailor Song, Op. 68, No. 1, as the music for a new football song. Why not save it for a crew song ? Syracuse football authorities are said to have offered SIO,OOO as an in ducement for the Ithacans to come to the Sail City next year. The Ithacans declined with thanks. Feeling between the two universities has not been any too warm since the last game was played in 1900. George Brlckley is still moving around. The former Everett and Trin ity star is to enter St. Anselm's Col lege, Manchester. N. H. Cumberland is believed to have cap tured all records for lack of success in football. The team was beaten, 222 to 0, by Georgia Tech, and 107 to 0 by Suwanee the following week—329 points against her to nothing in two games. Professional football in Ohio was occasionally marred by the failure of stars to appear. Maulbetsch was one notable delinquent. Jim Keady, for merly of Lehigh, was the thrilling star of the Toledo team. A Sensible Gift—a UNITED • $1.50 rjl^r Velour Hats, $3.50 Ask to See Onr Famous OAK BRAND $2 HAT Equal to Any $3 Ilat Shown.

It was fortunate for local en thusiasts that the Yale team was book ed. It will be the first appearance in Harrisburg of the big stars.

If the game is to be BAN FAVORS SUN GODS Chicago, 111., Dec. 22.—Ban John son, president of the American League, Is not in favor of cutting the schedule to 140 games, and he also is opposed to reducing the number of 25-cent seats In the various parks. "Neither proposal will be discussed at the schedule meeting in February," said Johnson. "The National League can do as it sees fit regarding reducing the number of cheap seats, but we will not make a change. We propose to con tinue to cater to the fans with limited purses and we will cut expenses again before we will deprive those who can't spend more than 25 cents of the privi lege of seeing games."

When Owner Comiskev Announced that Clarence Rowland would manage the team again next season he declined to say whether Col lins would captain the team. Some of the fans profess to see significance in the words of Comiskey, as follows: "I might have gone out on first base myself last year and perhaps we would have won the pennant. Anyhow, I know of one or two Instances when t would have been under some pop fly balls, whether the captain forgot ti> shout who was to take it or not."
