iFOOTBALL GAME
FIFTY YEARS OLD
Intercollegiate Game Anniver
sary to Be Properly Ob
served, Is Plan
Intercollegiate football In tho
United States reaches its fiftieth
milestone this year, the first game
having bc|en played in 1569, and
according to plans now under way
the event will be properly celebrat
ed. Teams representing Princeton
and Rutgers engaged in tho tlrst
contest, and plans being made call
for a semicentennial celebration,
with a pageant and other features,
to be put on in connection with a
game between tho teams which will
represent these institutions during
the coming season.
Tho committee on Rutgers alumni,
consisting of John W. Herbert, '7l,
chairman; Reonard F. Roree, '77; Dr.
William I. Chamberlain, 'B2; Dr.
Myron T. Scudder, 'B2, and Thilip
M. Brett, '92, has been working out
plans for tho semicentennial cele
bration. Mr. Herbert was a member
of the original Rutgers team and
the other committeemen have play
ed on teams which have since rep
resented the New Brunswick insti
tution.
Under Consideration
The Rutgers committee ha-s sug
gested to the Princeton athletic au
thorities that such a celebration bo
held, and the suggestion is now un- I
dor consideration at Princeton. It is
planned to have the affair mark
the gathering and participation of
men famous in the annals of the
game, to be concluded with a gen
eral football reunion and banquet.
Among the football features would
be a parade of all participants in
the celebration, headed by the sur
viving members of the original
teams; a short quarter, reproducing
as nearlv as possible the original
game; a short quarter played under
association rules, twenty men to the
team; a short quarter played un'Rr
the original Rugby rules, f. teei.
men to the team; exhibitions show
ing the development of the game
during the period of mass play for
mations, the Dcland flying wedge,
the Woodruff guards back forma
tion, the tackle back, the turtle
hack wedge, revolving mass on
tackle, with the ball ahead of the
interference, hurdle plays, wing
shifts and concluding with a short
game under the rules of to-day.
If impossible to arrange such a
celebration for a Saturday, it is sug
gested that the affair might he held
early in the week. A favorable
reply from Princeton is expected
within a few days.
Break Speed Record in
Troop Transportation
Halifax, N. B.—The Canadian Na
tional railways recently broke a speed
record in transportation of troops
from one ship. The troopship Olympic
docked here at 1 o'clock in the even
ing. With 4,900 returned soldiers
aboard. Eleven special trains were
made up to take the soldiers to de
mobilization points inland. The first
of these specials got under way nt
7.45 o'clock. The other trains follow
ed at average intervals of 18 minutes.
Within three hours all the soldiers
were on their way for the interior.
The troops averaged 445 men to a
train and it took 150 cars to handle
them.

TUESDAY EVENING,
KILBANE BEATS
BRITISH BOXER
Champion Docs Not Extend
Himself With Joey Fox
in Six Rounds
Philadelphia, July 29.—Johnny
KUbano defeated Joe Fox In the
wind-up at the Philadelphia hall
park last night before a crowd that
tested the capacity of tho big
stands. While Kilbane was entitled
to the decision, owing to the fact
that his blows were cleaner and
harder than the Englishman's, hia
work was disappointing, and it ap
peared many times as if he was not
extending himself, and it would not
be at all surprising to learn a little
later on that Johnny and Fox had
been matched for a longer fight in
some other city. Kilbane had Fox
at his mercy in the second round,
when he made a punching bag ot ,
the Britisher, but did not try to j
knock him out, and those close to
the ringside expected that the end |
would come in the next round, but
Johnny kept laughing all the time, j
perhaps he was thinking of how ;
he was fooling those who had xorne |
to seo a knockout. One thing the >
fight proved and that it is that Kil- j
bane is just as foul a fighter when
he wants to be as Fox ever dared be. |
for he did more fouling than Joe
after Fox had started it in the first ,
round.

Waite Hoyt Has Had
Unusual Baseball Career
W 7 aite Hoyt, once the property
I of the Giants, who has been pur
chased by the Boston Red Sox
j from the New Orleans Club, has
I had a rather remarkable career
I in baseball, for though he is now
j only 19 years old he has had four
years' experience in the profes-
I sional ranks. Hoyt was 15 years
I old and the star pitcher of Eras
■ mus Hall High school in Brook
! I lyn in 1915 when he was picked
I up by the Giants, and since that
! time he has played in Memphis
Montreal, Nashville and Newark,
I i though the Giants always had a
string on him.
Rast winter he was released to
Rochester in part payment for
j Earl Smith, but refused to report.
) This spring Arthur Irwin, des
= pairing of getting any service out
of the boy, traded him to New
Orleans for Jimmy Nixon, an
outfielder. Hoyt meanwhile had
gone to work in a Baltimore ship
yard and, pitching for the yard
team, hung up eighteen consecu
tive victories. His performances
attracted the attention of the
-i Boston club, and when Hoyt shut
out the Cincinnati Reds a week
ago the Red Sox bought his re
lease from New Orleans.

Umpire Hank O'Day Has
Been Long in Baseball
i Hank O'Day, one of the Na
| tional Reague's veteran umpires,
who was at the Polo Grounds
| yesterday, has been identified
i with the sport for more than thir
j ty years. Back in 1889 O'Day
i pitched for the Giants, who won
| the pennant and the world's
championship that season. He
j was a sturdy right-hander and
I took a turn in the box with Tim
Keefe, Mickey Welch and Ed
. Crane. O'Day also pitched for
■ tho New York Players' Reague
I team in 1890, also for the Wash
ingtons and other big league out
| fits.
I a National Reague umpire
, O Day figured in the memorable
| game between the Giants and the
Cubs at the Polo Grounds in 1908
in which he allowed the visitors'
claim that Fred Merkle had fail
ed to touch second base. Six
years later Charles Webb Mur
phy, owner of the Cubs, sudden
ly released Johnny Evers from
the management and appointed
O'Day, who had had a previous
experience as leader of the Reds.
! O'Day withdrew from the
j Cubs' management after one year
! and returned to tho National
| Reague's umpire staff. He is do
| ing excellent work In this capa-
I city and is perfectly happy.

in the pinches. The sensational field- ,
ing of Walter Smith of the Travel
ers was the one bright spot in the
evening session. The lively gard
ener caught a long fly off Garverich's
bat while down over the hill. There
were two Motive Power batsmen on
the sacks when Garverich smote the
bull. Smith started after it and
made a brilliant catch just at the
moment the crowd thought the hit
good for a homer. Again, when Hip
pensteel hit to left Smith leaped for
the sphere and caught it with one
hand. But for an unfortunate error
of Rightner's the game might have
gone into extra innings. The Trav
elers' center fielder threw hard to
catch a runner at third, and the ball
went over Gerdes' head.
Umpire Missing
The game was late in starting.
There was no umpire on hand, and
after much of a conference the play
| ers agreed upon Earl KiUinger to
I judge balls and strikes and Hoffman
to guard the sacks. Both did good
work. The interest in the game was i
unusually tense and each play was'
, applauded vigorously. Klugh played i
splendidly ut first for the Common
wealth, as did McCurdy, Brown and
Hippensteel for the Motive Power.
The Travelers made their only
run in the fifth inning. Klugh sing
led, going to second when Brown,
usually most dependable, allowed the
hit to go through his legs. Glen
KiUinger, Travelers' second saeker,
hit for a single, scoring Klugh. He
took third when Garverich allowed
his hit to go for more than a one
base bingle, but died there, his col
leagues fulling before the curves of
the Motive Power twlrler. Motive
Power scored in the second and
again in the seventh. Nine hits were
collected off Washinger and seven
off Hart. Washinger started out like
a winner, but hits made when they
counted for runs were secured by
the Motive Power batters. The
score:

Pershing Hits Second
Target at Le Mans Shoot
1 Word has just been received
from the other side that General
John J. Pershing tried his hand
l as a trapshooter. He was asked
to open the tournament at Le
Mans by firing the first shot, and
I he missed by an Irish mile. He
j said that he would shoot all day
| if necessary until he dropped one
of the clays, but he was lucky
1 enough to sink his second clay,
j Any one who has tried to clip
| the clays can realize that he was
surely fortunate, for It is nothing
| novel for a novice to blaze away
I at half a hundred "birds" before
I a "kill" is registered.
