12 TECH STARTS HARD DRIVE IN PREPARATION FOR WILKES-BARRE GAME SATURDAY COMMISSION IS SUPREME BODY Men Who Handle Boxing at Columbus Look After All Details Chicago, Nov. 20.—There may be a tighter proposition somewhere in the universe than the boxing" com mission that champions the fight game in Columbus, Ohio, but it there is it is keeping itself pretty well camouflaged. Ths Columbus commis sion Is the real wonder of the boxng world. Not even Wisconsin, which boasts a nice tight little commission % of Its own, can match the Columbus article. There are three members of the Columbus commission, appointed by the mayor.. Their authority covers only the corporate limits of Colum bus, but within those limits they are the real bosses of the works. The commission is the supreme court, the court of last appeal. There is nothing whatever beyond. Here is a brief sketch of the way thts commisson works: High Is King Walter Hughes is the kiiyr pin of the commission and he referees bouts held in Columbus. His con ferees are a railroad man and a stockman. Hughes is regarded as a capable referee. The commission is empowered to charge a permit fee of $25 from all promoters, and no license for a box ing show is Issued until the fee is paid. A further fee of five per cent, of of the gross receipts of all shows is charged, this to cover the personal expenses of the commission. The fees thus secured are split three ways by the commission after each boxing en tertainment. The mayor told the members of the commission he required them to see to it that the very highest class of boxing is offered, which served the double purpose of raising the stand ard of boxing in Columbus and add ed to the emoluments accruing to the members of the commission by vir tue of the five per cent., for high grade shows undoubtedly produce a larger "gate" than those of the me diocre variety. While Hughes is refereeing the bouts, one of the other members of the commission guards the portals to see that there is no shennanigan put over in the sale of tickets. The third member keeps time at the bouts. It Is very little that gets by this com mission. What Others Say About Steelton High Victory Under the heading, "Reading High Snowed Under by Steelton Team," the Reading News-Times prints the following: "The worst defeat ever adminis tered to a Reading High school ath letic team was handed out by the football club Saturday afternoon at George Field by eleven of the best scholastic football players seen in this city for years. They were from the Steelton High school and during the afternoon's sport tramped over the Reading goal line eight times. The final score was Reading, 0;i Steelton, 53. I "They probably would have scored 1 several more tallies except that dur-J ing the second half of the gamc ; Reading braced, and at one tlme ( snowed a streak of form not seen | on the local gridiron this season. At that time they carried the ball near ly the length of the field before Steel ton again bgan to hold them for downs. During that time Reading made three first downs. "The Steelton machine was far be vond ths class of Reading this .year. Their playing was of the kind rarely seen on high school fields. All thei visiting players also were muchi heavier than regular high school, men. "On the other side of the line Reading was handicapped by the absence of Reynolds, Johnson and Abrams. who are on the sick list.. Julian, who substituted for Abrams, 1 accounted for several plays that: might have been touchdowns. There j was some lack of generalship on thej part of Reading's quarterbacks and' the rest of the team played ragged j at times, but the game was hopeless; from the beginning." More National Records; Show Many Free Trips Secretary Heydler, National League includes the hit by pitched balls in his bases on balls record this year, Heinle Groh, of the Reds, ties George Burns, of the Gltrnts, for the walking honors of 1917. Each obtained sev enty-three free passages, Burns being hit once and Groh eight times. The champion hiker on the fast time cir suits for 1917 is Jack Graney, Indian leftfielder. He reached first over the Red Cross line four times and over the four-ball route on 98 occasions— a total of 102. Kddle Collins, White Sox had 13 more gifts of the two kinds than Groh and Burns and Owen Bush, Tigers, and Harry Hooper, Red Sox, 9 more. In the National League the team leaders in getting passes of the regu lation and Red Cross varieties were: Groh, Cincinnati, and Burns, New York, 76; Luderus, Phladelphia, 73; Carey, Pittsburgh, 67; Stengel, Brooklyn, 64; Smith, Boston, 61; Hornsby, St Louis, 54, and Flack, Chcago, 51. Arthur Fletcher, Giants, drew more caaualty passe* than any man in the National or American, pitchers hitting him no fewer than nineteen times. Charles Herzog, his teammate, was winged on thirteen occasions. Joe Leonard, Washington, was the one big leaguer to obtain five free trips In one game on June 9.

FOR THE LAST TIME These are extremely sensitive days. Any half-statement seems to be carried further out to the most pessimistic conclusion. Our humble, state ment decrying any championship because one college may not have rent as many football veterans to the service as some rivaJ has sent has brought forth more than one loud roar. It was not our idea to impugn the patriot ism of any college, for the colleges In bulk and In particular have done a record work In this war. But here is a fact that no one can hurdle a college eleven that has returned four or five or six veterans, from whatsoever worthy and reputable cause, doesn't come into fair competition with others who have sent practically every veteran to the service and who have no nucleus to start wito. Therefore, no championship is in order. If this logic doesn't stand, we give it up. HOLDING OX "Has England," writes a reader, "maintained any competitions through the war paralleling our major leagues?" Not that we know of. But, after three years of war, Canada, with 1 Toronto and Montreal in the International League, still carries on. And Canada's war record is one of the world's greatest achievements since Time began its first drift on through space. THE END VOTE "Having picked Thorpe, Coy, Heston and Eckersall as the four greatest backs," writes G. L. H., "what is your vote on the two best ends?" Five of the best Include Shr/tUn, Hinkey and Kilpatrick, of Yale; Snow of Michigan and Campbell of Harvard. Picking two men from this allotment is harder than picking four backs from the entire whirl. The majority of votes seem to favor Hinkey and Shevlin, but the estimate is a trifle beyond our ltmited range. Howsoever, Hinkey and Shevlin will do well enough. Whether they could have out played Snow and Campbell or Kilpatrick and Campbell might call for extended debate. "Fight game stopped in New York." But there is still enough fighting here and there throughout the world to more than even up for New York's deficit. # I'ROM THE WEST Sir: While giving Ouimet and Guilford all needed credit for their 1917 achievement, don't forget that Evans and Gardner defeated Ouimet and Travers at Detroit in 1915. It is needless to say that Travers is well Guilford, making a stronger team. I'd like to have a small bet on Evans and Gardner against Ouimet and Guilford over any neutral course. H. K. F. • As great a team as Evans and Gardner were and still would be, the Ouimet of 1917 is a different golfer from the Ouimet of 1915. In that match he figured in but two holes, being far below his normal form.

The champion of the world is about to retire. And he will be the first heavyweight champion who will leave the ring still wearing the highest toga in pugilistic circles. Jess loves the circus. He went into it after he won the champion ship from Jack Johnson. Then he was only, one of the sideshows. Now Jess is a full-fledged circus owner. Lack of suitable opponents to test his merits in the ring is also one of the reasons why the champion wants to get out of the game. Another thing is his propensity for taking on weight. Jess, at the present time, tips the beam at well over the 300 mark. • It would require months of hard training for him to reduce if a match for the championship was to be made. Jess is an easy-going citizen. He doesn't love hard work. The stren uous hours in a training camp are not to his liking. He doesn't have to fight for the money in it. Jess has made his pile. The circus is adding to it. No Worthy Opponent And in looking over the field of near champions there isn't one on the list who would make a" worthy opponent for Willard. The champion wants $50,000 for his end if he is to appear in the ring again. No pro moter would give that figure for a contest between Willard and .either Fred Fulton, Carl Morris, Jim Coffey, Bill Brennan or Billy Miske, the lat ter a light-heavy. Outside.of Fred Fulton, there isn't one of this quintet who could even make Willard extend himself. And with Willard out of the race there will be a wild scramble to crown another heavyweight title holder. It will take months, maybe years, before another champion will make his appearance. Despite the fighting abilities at both Mike C'Dowd and Benny Leon ard, middleweight and lightweight champions respectively, there are Pit.ny of tha present-day fighters who are hurling challenges at the two title-holders. O'Dowd has held the championship less than a week. He is the most sought after of the two "little fel lows." But it isn't likely that the "fighting Irishman" or the New YorK champion will soon lose their hold on their titles. Both are hard hit lers. They have easily disposed of their opponents in recent battles. Johnny Dundee Too Fast For Lad From Baltimore Philadelphia, Nov. 20. Johnny Dundee, of New York, proved to be too fast for George Chancy, of Balti more, last night at Olympia. Chaney tried diligently, but against Dundee's hair-trigger leads, on the attack and in counterattacks the Baltimorean was at a loss. Chaney tried valiantly to score with knockout-dealing left but for his pains was met with sting-' ing left jabs to the face and repeat ed rights to the body. Chaney was ever ready to make use of his hook to the head. The Baltimorean southpaw met Dundee's dazzling rush with stiff left hooks that went home to the jaw or body with considerable force. Dundee was here, there and every where. He also employed his left, alternately varying his attack from a straight jab to a hook. Dundee was going good, and as he sped around the ring he caused several of Cha ney's well intended swings to fall short of their intended mark. Dundee had the better of four of the six rounds, and the other two were even. Chaney grew desperate in his efforts to catch Dundee, but the latter on the wing was an elu sive as a five-dollar bill on bar gain day. The New Yorker sped in and out, circled around Chaney, and peppered constantly the Baltimorean with rapid-fire leads. Dundee would suddenly switch from the offensive to the defensive, and then he would lead Chaney a merry chase across the ring, to sud denly veer and unshower a world of right and left swings to. the Balti morean's head and body. It was a fast encounter with Dundee clearly entitled to the verdict.

In addition to honoring- Dallas, Philadelphia by a unanimous vote was awarded the 1918 convention, to be held in November. Four prominent Philadelphians were elected to the National Board of Managers of the A. A. U. in the persons of A. L Wanamaker, Herman Meyer, Thomas J* Hughes and Louis N.

While both elevens have had successful seasons, the final judgment in this matter will come following this battle. All the Maroon players are In good condition, although several are off the squad for failure to keep train ing rules. It is said that they are off the squad for the season, and will not get the opportunity to play in the Thanksgiving classic. Entire Squad Out Coach Ryan had the entire number of players out on the Island, and extra efforts will be put forth in the next fortnight to whip the team into a formidable machine that will be as strong on the offense as It Is on the defense. The Tech team has run up moie points than any other Maroon eleven. Tech will take several extra players along to Wilkes-Barre Saturday, and no attempt will be made to run a big score. After the game is won. Tech will save its regulars for the following week. While Central had a runaway with the Coal Miners, It is expected that the team has developed a lot since, and will give Tech more of a fight on their own field than they did in the forepart of the season on the Island. Tom Seaton Goes to Portland Coast Team Los Angeles, Nov. 20.—Tom Seaton, immediately after his contract with Los Angeles expired, was notified by Walter McCredie that he had been turned over to Portland by the Chi cago Cubs for next season, in part payment for Dave Hollocher. It Is not at all certain, however, that Seaton will appear in a baseball uniform next year. He received notice to report to the Army at American Lake, and left for that point As he hasn't claimed exemption, and figures to pass the physical examination, It is probable that he will see service with the Bullseye Men in France. lIOI.IJ BRICK-THROWER James Smith, of Lykens, who hurled a stone through the plateglass window of a store in Market street, is in jail, held under *2OO balls for court.

CROUSE WINNER OVER LEO HOUCK Lancaster Boy Would Not Give Pittsburglier Chance to Fight; Fast Preliminaries Local fight fans to the number of fifty Journeyed to Lancaster last night. Frankie Erne, who conducts a boxing school in that city, offered a semimonthly bill that looked good. The windup feature was between Leo Houck and Buck Crouse. About 600 attended. The school is located on the second floor of a building in Queen street. In the business section. Adjoining on the same floor is the pool and billiard rooms of Jack Deal, the former baseball star. To see the fight spectators were obliged to climb a narrow stairway and pass through small doorways. What might hap pen if there should be a fire or panic is a question. Lancaster patrons like Frankie Erne. He is making good and this is one reason they take chances. An other reason, there is no other place in Lancaster where a fight program could be pulled off and the promoter make money. Once a Frankie Erne program is in motion, no person thinks about any panic or how to get out should there be a fire. The way those Erne'pupils fight is interesting. Hotiek I* Loner Lancaster folks gave Houck a de cision over Buck Crouse last night. That was natural. Outsiders thought otherwise. The Pittsburgh boy was too fast for Houck. The latter saved himself by clinching and holding on.' He would not let Crouse fight. The Lancaster boy was punished, all re ports to the contrary notwithstand ing. Had he stood up like a real fighter there would in all probability have been a knockout to Buck grouse. The bout went six rounds. In the preliminaries Allan Putt, of Lltitz, had the best of Whitey King. The latter showed ability to cover up. He was a joke with Putt. King went in as a substitute for Jack Dewey, of this city, who failed to appear. Si Davis knocked out Bill Koenig in two rounds and Joe Hecker was put down for the count in the same round by Sammy Kautz.
