The battle is to take place on New Year's Day. Where this im portant fight will be staged is not yet decided. Arrangements may be made with the Motive Power Athletic Association of the Pennsylvania Rail road. This is the most important ring announcement Harrisburg fans have had for a long time. That Brennen is after a battle for the title has long been the talk of the fistic world. The Buffnio fighter has been delivering the goods and is in line to meet the champion, but first wants to get a chance at Gill. Both fighters have agreed to make the necessary weight for this battle. This match was made by Joe'Barrett, who has Johnny Gill under his care. It came through his friendship with Brcnnen's manager. Barrett has the signed contracts and the battle is cer tain. Due to the expense attached to a match of this kind a large hall Is necessary. The Steelton promoter says he will pull the fight oft either here or in Steelton. There will also have to be a slight increase In the price of admission, but local fans who are up to the minute on ring information realize that if this battle was pulled off In Philadelphia, it There Is a Difference Now in Goal From Touchdown The Penn-Dartmouth. Pittsburgh- W. and J., and Dartmouth-Brown games, which were decided by goals from touchdowns, has started anew the discussion over the advisability of abolishing the count altogether. The goal from touchdown has taken some hard knocks in its time. In 1883 it ranked 4 points to 2 for a touchdown, and 5 for a goal from field. The following season the touchdown moved up in value to 4 points, while the goal dropped to 2, where it remained until 1897. when the touchdown added a point and tho goal lost one. In 1904 the value of a goal from field was reduced from 5 to 4 points and in 1909 to 3 points. In 1912 the touchdown advanced to C points. In the evolution of the gridiron game the touchdown has moved up from 2 to 6 points, while the goal has dropped from 4 to 1 point, and the field goal from 5 to 3. This shows that, football, as its name implies started out as a kicking game, and the high values were placed on the art of hoisting the oval with the foot. Then came the predominance of rush ing. which in turn seems to have given way to the forward pass, which smacks of basketball. The skill of the foot bows to the prowess of the hand.—William 11. Wright in New York World. Camp Hill Teams Will Oppose Speedy Quintets The Camp Hill High School varsity five and girls' team will play tlieir first joint bill of the schedule in the gymnasium of the 'cross river school building on Friday evening. Gettys burg High School is scheduled to meet the varsity five and the girls' team of the Millersville Normal School will oppose the feminine out fit. Both games are expected to be fast. The 'cross river teams have been undergoing hard training for the past month and bid fair to come through the season with quite a few victories. The girls' team is expected to come through with a victory as the team is working better this season than last year when the outfit was defeated but once. Center College Lands Place on Harvard Grid Schedule Cnmbrlrigr, Mass.. Dec. 10.—The football eleven of Center College, un beaten during the last season, will meet the Harvard University team here for the Crimson's principal mid season game on October 23, next year. The announcement of this game was followed to-day by the statement of Harvard athletic authorities that a proposal for a game with University of Illinois had been dismissed. Illi nois, it was said, requested that Harvard go west in 1921 if Illinois played here next year, and stipulated that the games if played be regarded as "practice" contests. Harvard re plied that long trips in mid-term could not be considered. Tt was felt that a game between Harvard and the team which won the conference championship this year could not be considered a "practice" one. NICK THING ABOUT TECH Harrisburg Tech on Saturday afternoon cinched their claim to the championship football title of the country by decisively defeating the heretofore undefeated high school eleven from Portlund, Me. A local critic in commenting on the game said: "There was nothing to it but Harrlsburg. Whenever ttiey got the hall they just simply journeyed down the Held un'.l! they scored a touch es. Wll." Among the offo'a's was V.' R. Okeson, secretary of the l<ehigh Association and a member of the Central Hoard, who umpired. >lr.

If arrangements can be made to seat no less than 900 people, it is said a bid will lie made by the railroad organ ization, providing suitable arrange ment can be made with Manager Joe Barrett. The Steelton promoter said to-day that he realized his club was too smull to take care of u light of this kind, but that he had the contract, and if Harrisburg was unable to stage the battle he would take it else where.

He is anxious to find out how strong his hoy Johnny Gill will be against a real champion. If a suitable hall is secured the necessary forfeit will bo placed at once, as several Steelton boosters have agreed to furnish the necessary cash. If Harrisburg gets this battle, it means many cut of town visitors, as there is unusual interest Just now as to who is the best man to go up against O'Dowd. v MIDDIES TAKE Ul BOXING Annapolis, Md., Dec. 10.

DECEMBER 10, 1919. GOOD SPORTS IS WEST SHORE PLAN Scholastic Basketball Holds Attention; Girls Have Fast Team Three West Shore High schools are represented by basketball teams this season, the largest number in the his tory of the West Shore. Camp Hill High which has had several fast loams in the field, both lioys and girls, in recent years again is represented with a lively outfit. The girl's team of this school which established an enviable record last year, Is again going at a fast clip. The Enola and West Falrview High teams although composed of unpolished and inexperi enced material will speedily develop into winning aggregations. , The Camp Hill Tigh teams were or ganized several years ago and al though not making any new high rec ords in the game, put- up stiff con tests and the players were considered of a high caliber due to the fact that most of (he teams opposing the 'cross river outfit were much faster and composed of finished material. Boys Team Strong The boys' team lias been showing | good team work in practices this week and with a few hard contests I which they have scheduled to play the early part of the season, the quintet should be working In good shape and come through with quite a few victories. That the girls' team is going to have another record breaker season, is manifested by the speed whicli members show in the workouts. Four members of last year's outfit which lost but one game, are on this year's five. A hard schedule is before the girls, hut they expect to come through with (lying colors. Enola and Camp Hill are scheduled to clash in a series of games and it is altogether likely that West Fair view will join in a series with the other West Shore teams. A champion ship series on the West Shore sport enthuastics declare, would be very interesting.! Revival of Sport* Talking of West Shoie basketball teams takes graduates of 'cross river schools bock seven years ago when Lemoyne High was represented for several years by fast teams. The Le moyne organization made quite a rec otd during several seasons hut for the lack of adequate facilities were forced to quit. Installation of a gym nasium in the Camp Hill school building was the first step toward the encouragement of sports in the West Shore districts. Should an addition be made to the Lemoyne schools, It is altogether likely sport facilities would be made. The Camp Hill am Knola schools are the only buildings having gymnasiums at the present time.
