    Y. LIC. A. HAS VOLLEYBALL LEAGUE-TECH TOSSERS READY FOR ALUMNI
FOUR COACHES
ARE IN RIGHT
Princeton Tutor Got Knocks
But Is Now in For
Life
New York, Dec. 26.—King of the
"fall guys"—that's the coach.
When he develops a winner he gets
a bigger hand than the well known
prince. When his team loses, he's as
popular as "Pussy foot*' Johnson
would be in Havana.
Four (coaches —Oil Dobie. Hill
Roper, Bob Zuppke and Charley
Moran—are eating the proverbial
white bread now. Next year they
may be feeding on the biblical husks.
If the experts had to pick an ail-
American coach it is almost a cinch
that one of the above four would be
named. . , ,
Bill Roper got a lot of mean knocks
before Princeton was willing to ad
mit he had the goods. After the
West Virginia and Colgate games, the
Tigers following began to take about
changes.
Want to Keep Itoper
But when McGraw, Thimble, Mur
rey, Scheerer and company tied
Harvard and beat Yale, they changed
their tune and expressed their favor
of a lifetime contract for Koper
Gil Dobie came to the Navy in 1917
known as the- "wizard of the West.
For 13 years he turned out a team
at Washington that didn't lose a
game. He didn't have much to work
with among the midshipmen but he
turned out a team good enouglh to
beat the Army after lie had led
everyone to believe that the Middies
would be crushed.
Zuppke is one of t..e old war
horses" of the western conference
He has a long list of citations, not

TUESDAY EVENING*
FREAK THROWS
WILL PASS OUT
Americans Give Notice to
Twirlers That There Will
Be Changes
Chicago, Dec. 26.— pitchers in the
American League are not going to
have anything on those in the Na
tional when it comes to operating
on the rubber, as all freak deliveries
are to be barred from the Ban John
son circuit, the same as they have
been in the- National league, accord
ing to Information gleaned from
President Johnson to-day. The
younger major organization has not
taken any action on the subject yet,
but when t lie time comes it will
legislate against the artificial means
of hurling, the same as the other
league has done.
"All freak deliveries will he barred
to meq coming into our league," said
President Johnson, when asked what
the American League purposed doing
on the question. We have not made
any definite decision yet, but 1 am
pure that the shine ball, spit ball and
other artificial means of throwing
will be eliminated.
♦♦Spilters to Break Slowly
"Of course, it would bo unjust to
ask spit ball pitchers to discard that
mode ft Hinging immediately, but
they will be given to understand they
will have to/ acquire a new style in
a year's time. Youngsters just break
ing in will not be allowed to use any
thing except speed, curves <and a
change of pace." , . #
The National League has already
prohibited the shine hall, emery ball
and other forms of freak deliveries.
Pitchers who have been in the league
for a year or more are permitted to
use the spit hall next season only,
after which that particular delivery,
too. Will be tabooed.
Last season the shine hall was ap
parently overdone. Nearly every
pitcher with a few exceptions tried
to throw the shine ball, with the re
sult that some became remarkably
effective and others lost what little
stuff they possessed. The most of
them, however, developed so much
effectiveness that the games resulted
in pitcher's contests. The hitting de
creased and a howl of protest was
hoard from the- batters. whose
averages suffered as a consequence
of the deceptive shine hall.

YOUNG CHANEY
OUTPOINTS CHAMP
Kilbanc Unable to Land Ef-j
fectivc Blow; Other,
Good Bouts
lSy Associated Press
Jersey City, N. J., Dec. 30.—Young j
Chancey, of Baltimore, out-fought j
and out-pointed Johnny Kilbane, the
featherweight champion, in an eight- j
round bout here last night, in the |
opinion of the majority of the New J
York morning paper writers.
Chaney weighed 122 pounds and \
the champion 123. The Baltimore
boxer took the aggressive at the 1
start and although not as clever as
Kilbane, often sent in blows so fast j
that the titleliolder was frequently j
forced to clinch. Chaney took the \
llrst, third, fourth and seventh rounds, :
and Kilbane the second and eighth, j
The fifth and sixth were even.
The best blow Kilbanc landed was j
in the second round when he placed '
a right smash to the right eye. In j
the last round Kilbane tried to score
a knockout, but Chaney fought back J
hard.
Other Fast Uouta
Jeft Smith, of Bayonne, knocked out j
Jack Coyne, of Orange, N. J., in the j
second round. Smith weighed 157
and Coyne 155.
Gene Turney, light-heavyweight
champion of the American Expedition
ary Force, scored a knockout over
Bob Pearce, of Chicago in the sec
ond round of an eight-round match
here last night. Tunney weighed 175
pounds; Pearce, 166. The bell Baved
Pearce in the first round when he
was down from a right uppercut to
the head. His seconds threw in the
sponge in the next round after the
second knockdown.
Tom Cowler, the English heavy
weight. won in the third round from
A 1 Iteich, of New York who was dis
qualified when his seconds sprayed
him with water while on the canvas.
The weights were; Cowler, 212; Reich,
208.
Reich did well for a minute for the
first round, but took the defensive
thereafter. He was floored twice in
the second round, the bell ringing as
the count reached six on the second
knockdown. In the third round, he
went down from a light push blow.
Illness prevented Harry Greb, of
the United States Navy, from meeting
Augie Itatner, the A. E. F. middle
weight champion.
Harrisburg Independents

RARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
BALL CLUBS CHANGE CAMPS
FOR ANNUAL TRAINING;
TEN TEAMS MAKE SHIFi
New York, Dec. 30.—Changing
training camps continues to be a
popular diversion of major league
club owners during the off-season.
A year ago 12 of the 16 clubs were
sent to pastures other than those
where their training had been done
In 1917, and the announcement of
plans for the 1920 conditioning cam
paign shows that ten are to desert
the cities where they worked out a
year ago.
The ten changes are evenly divided
between the two leagues. It ia inter
esting to note that only two clubs,
the Chicago Cubs and the Cleveland
Indians, have not made a change in
the brief space of three years.
An odd feature concering the 1920
training rests is the fact that the
two clubs which tried out the home
training system last Spring are going
far from home this time. The St.
Louis Cardinals, after a season of
conditioning at home, are scheduled
to work the kinks out of their arms
next Spring in Brownsville, Texas,
said to be the most southerly point
ever chosen for a training camp by
a major league club. The Philadel
phia Athletics, the other home train
ers of 1919, will get into condition
at Lake Charles. La.
May Pick Texns
Official announcements as to train
ing locations have not been made
by the owners of the Chicago and
St. Louis American league clubs, but
it is generally believed that tho
White Sox will go to Waxahachie.
Texas, nnd the Browns to Mobile,
Ala. It is known positively that the
Sox will not return to Mineral Wells,
Texas, where they have trained for
several years past, and the Browns
have passed up San Antonio, Texas,
which cifv has been taken by the
New York (Jiants. McGraw goes back
to Texas after one try on the At

inclusive. /
In many instances cities which
have been passed up by one major
Jeague club are taken by another.
Washington takes Tampa, passed up
bv the Red Sox; the Giants go to
San Antonio, which the Browns
passed up; the White Sox are slated
for Waxahachie. where the world's

all others scheduled for this season
there will be dance programs. An
added- feature to-morrow night will

The Alumni aggregation includes
all college cage stars, including

Ileek's Injury Bothers Him
From present appearances the
Tech varsity lineup will include
Dingle and Beck at forwards; Wils
bach at Center, and Smith and Frank
at guards. Emanuel and Snyder,
two players who have figured in tilts
with the Teeli Reserves so far this
season, are regarded as being strong
candidates, and will make hard fights
for positions.
Beck is not in iho best of condi
tion to play Wednesday night, owing
to a football injury which lias been

probable that he will alternate with
Emanuel during the Alumni battle.
