ADDITIONAL NEWS OF SPORTS | Vi*,(ompens eats PROFESSIONAL FOOTBALL NEXT New York Scheduled For Invasion by » Next Fall. By LAWRENCE PERRY. (Copyright, 1925, Casper ‘Tribune,) NEW YORK, May 21—With a prize fight manager of established reputation in the profession report- ed to be handling a project to install professional football in New York, all who are interested in intercol- legiate athletics may well be alarmed. yidently the big money accruing fom football has excited the envy of professional interests and they want some of it. ' Pro football hag its main foothold in the middle west and the attitude of college men out there toward the game is to be read in the stringent regulations concerning it which ob- tain in the Western conference. For instance, those who serve as offi- cials in professional games are not eligible for Big Ten contests and there are other stipulations designed to combat the professional end of the gridiron game. With many colleges playing foot- ball in New York each fall, profes- sional football has attracted little interest. And, as a fact, it has got so that football playing colleges may not be Certain of anything respec able in the way of ¢ receipts when they play in this city, And even then, the institutions inyolved must be those with a large alumn! following in the metropolis, or an eleven like Notre Dame which, in addition to its national reputation, has a certain racial appeal. Two college elevens which annual- ly play a fine grade of football met at the Polo Grounds last fall and there were almost as many ushers as spectator Nonetheless were 2 team of veri- table college football stars recruited, ag Billy Gibson hopes to do, and were a coach of “great, national reputation” engaged in atcordance with plans, there is a chance that the game might-make a dent here, And the dent that. would be made in the inte te game would be in precise proportion to the foot- hold which the “pre ne made here, —_—— Club Standings Ame jelphia National League.

(THURSDAY, MAY 21, 1925 SPORES Di SPORTS DONE BROV --t e wthe The expected, as far as 1 am con- cerned, has happened to the Pirates, There was a feeling in-many quar- ters last winter that the Pirates had been “hooked” in the trade engi- neered with the Cubs. You recall the Pittsburg team traded Charley Grimm. Wilbur Cooper and Rabbit Maranville for Al Nethaus, Charlie Grantham and Vie Aldrich, The Pirates felt fortified in the trade because they were getting Niehaus, a first baseman, to replace Grimm. The latter had been charged with listless work at times. Niehaus hag failed to deliver in the expected manner. Eddie Moore is filling Maranvilie’s shoes in acceptable style as far as playing is concerned but the Rab- bit's counsel is needed in the in- field. Neither pitcher has shone to- date, What has made matters worse with the Pirates has been the failure to date of Yde and Kremer, pitching aces of last season, to hit their best strides Charley Weinert hopes to make his battle with Harry Wills_ his ‘great comback.” And Harry Wills is hoping to make it another rea- son why he should get a chance to take a crack on the jaw from Jack Dempsey. A battle bullt on hopes, so to speak. Jack Scott and Art Hehf of the Giants are trying to get a reduction in their insurance premiums on the strength of their showing with Me- Graw's outfit this year. “We aren't as old as we're rated,” declared Arthur of the southpaw mitt and keen head ave sent a flock of minors.
