7BIG DELEGATION OF KACEYS ROOTERS TO ACCOMPANY'QUiNTET TO MERIDEN THIS EVENING—CLOSE B : FOR LEADERSHIP — WATERBURY LANE MEN TO OPPOSE “BILL'S STARS” AT ROGERS ALLEYS TOMORROW AFTERNOON—ZBYSZKO DEFENDS TITLE AUGUSED FOOTBALL HEN OFFER ALIIS Desch and Mobandt of Notre Dame, Assert Their [nnocence | Chicago, Jan, 80—Indications are that Gus Desch and John Mohardt, Notre Dame football stars, who were sald to have played with Carlinville, I, in the professional game last fall against Taylorville, 111, which re- sulted in disqualification of nine Uni- versity of Illinois athletes, would b @leared of any connection with the eollegiate foothall scandal Developments tend to Desch and Mohardt were vietims of a case of false which was the cond double crossing in the between the two towns games. Carlinville people proximately $50,000 on the gume, it is sald, after hiring ten college players for their eleven, only to find that lorville had learned of the plan and | procured nine Illinois athletes for its team, which won, 16 to 0. Both Desch, a member American Olympic team, hardt, an All-Amer lection, last night issi nials that they plaved in the ga and presented evidence to the Notre Dame authorities at South Bend, Ind., that they were in school the day of the contest. Think They were Imposed Upon. When the Carlinville people, who though they had hired the two play- ers, learnéd of this, they frankly de- clared that undoubte they had been imposed upon by persons using the names of Desch and Mohardt and that, besides being beaten at their own game of “safe betting,” they had been dupes of the ‘“ringers’ they hired to make the betting safe. At South Bend, Desch and Mohardt presented their evidence at an infor mal meeting of some members of the college athletic committee, Later these members expressed the opinion that the two men were jnnocent and merely victims of circumstances. formal meeting of the committee will be held at which all information gathered will be gone over. The reports spread through Carlin- ville previous to the game that ten Notre Dame men had been pro- cured to play and that the game had thus been clinched and the betting made safe. “Desch, Mohardt and Chester Wynne,” who, the towns- people had been informed, were Notre Dame stars, were to appear in the line-up, but Wynne also has positively denied participation in the game, and has announced that he can prove his assertions. Notre Dame's Investigation. Knute Rockne, Notre Dame coarh last night told The ted Pre that the authorities undoubtedly would take drastic action if the inves- tigation showed that Notre Dame men had played in the game. “We do not want to go cocked,” said Rockne, “but we are bending every effort toward a thorough investigation of each detail of this affair. I believe that Desch and Mohardt are innocent, and can readily see had the Carlinville people might have been deceived into believ- ir.s that Desch and "Mohardt were playing on their team. It any Notre Dame man is found gullty of playing professional football or in any way violating the college rules, either in spirit or letter, we shall not be the lease lenient. We cannot, for we must protect our col- lege, and we must protect college football from the encroachments pro- fessionalism is trying to make on it. “We feel the highest regard for the Illinois authorities for their action, and I know that Notre Dame will be severe if any of her men are found guilty.” Rockne has long been known as a staunch enemy of professional foot- ball. that innocent identity, instance of bitter rivalry | over the| bet ap- show the Mo- of and alfback formal de- me | off half- Carlinville Contradiction Carlinville, Tll., Jan. 30. (Associated Press.)——Rivers Anderson, business manager of the local football team, last night declared that he had per- sonally ‘“hired and paid Notre Dame University men to play football for Carlinville against Taylorville last fall,” while Lionel Moise, coach of the team, said that “to his knowledge there was not a Notre Dame man in the Carlinville lineup.” Both asser- tions were made in formal statements to The Associated Press, Anderson cleared John Mohardt of the charge of playing in the game and said that several Notre Dame he had expected to have in the |1t's A | worry that never hothe | Micusel and up did not appear. “I handled the money for the team and I personally hired and Notre Dame men to play,” said . derson. “T am willing to how much they were paid or they were.

LS SIGHT LEA State League Leaders Make It Three Straight The Middletown Kaceys took the second beating of the season on the h strect court Saturday night, be- large crowd, the locals romping off with a 42 to 28 victory. At times the contest was an interesting affair on an even basi If only the Middle- town team had a few more players like McCabe the quintet might amount to something in the league. It was mainly through the work of the rangy forward, that the visitors were able to make any kind of a shpwing, “Mac" accounted for 16 points for his team, and many of his shots were pretty anes. Sheehan Outclasses Ahern It was with considerable interest that the crowd looked on the contest between the veteran Danny Ahern and fohnny Sheehan, for the leadership in points scored in the Kaceys State league. As a result of "“Snowshoes” fine work Saturday night, he now holds \ five point lead over Daniel. Sheehan accounted for 16 points for New Brit- | ain, 12 of which were dropped in from the 15 foot line. He registered two fleld goals. Ahern scored six foul andi two fleld goals. Close for a Time The locals went into the lead in the irst minute of pl when Kilduff gistered a fleld goal, and Sheehan nade it one more with a foul goal. Ahern broke the scoring ice for the sitors with a foul goal, and then Mc- be put his team on even terms with the locals with a field goal. The locals took the lead for a moment only to \ave the score tied, and at one time Middletown was leading 7 to 5. After ‘he home team caught up with the ‘isitors, there was not much to it af- erward. Kilduff shared with Sheehan, n the glory of victory. The peppery orward registered eight fleld goals. me of his goals was made on a jump, ‘edder tapping the ball right into the asket. Play in Meriden Tonight Tonight the locals will make their lebut before a Meriden audience in he Town Hall. The Silver City basket- ball fans are “all het” over the coming »f the Hardware City team.

The champion faces Dick Daviscourt, a burly Texan, who is looked upon by many as a foe worthy to wrest the title from the Polis won- der. Tonight's match is a regulation affair, best two falls in three. In a recent meeting between this pair, Zbyszko defeated Daviscourt, when the latter wds forced to quit after an injury. Each grappler had secured a fall in that match. Zbyszko will leave the Hub immediately after tonight's match for Bridgeport where he is scheduled tomorrow evening. The preliminary battle in this city will be between Joe Malcewicz, a Polish grappler, and “the Lithuanian Strong Man.” “Smiler” Livingston will referee the matches. Promoter Hartly reports that there is a keen interest being shown in the bringing of Zbyszko to the city, and a big crewd is looked for Wednesday night. BOXING AT HARTFORD Jimmy Kelly, a Big Favorite in the Capital City, Carded Against Kid Herman of California. Jimmy Kelly, the “Bronx Bearcat,” who recently defeated Mike Morley of Hartford, in a sizzling contest, has been secured as one of the top liners for tomorrow night's exhibition at the Church street auditorium. Kelly is hookeg to meet Tilly “Kid" Herman, the California welterweight, who has been proving a sensation in New York rings. Those who have witnessed Kelly in action, are loud in their praises of his work. He is a tireless battler, who keeps things moving all the time he is in the ring. The decisive man- ner in which he polished off Morley, stamped him as the goods, and has established him with the fight fans in this section. Against Herman, he will be forced to display everything he has got, if reports of the Coast boy are to believed. On paper the main bout looms up as one of the best that the Capital City promoters have booked in many montis. Two new men in these parts will be seen in action in the semi-final when Sammy Stone of New York, and Nate Rippons, of Minneapolis, box in a scheduled eight-rounder. The repu- tations of the men preceding them to Hartford, indicates that the fans will see plenty of action, but that fact re- mains to be determined. Both Stone and Rippons hope to satisfy, tHereby assuring themselves of more work in this section. The management has ar- {ranged for two preliminary bouts, the contestants being boys who are known for their ability to sock. Frankie |Glennon will referee the bouts. Hughie torty will announce and Ollie Hyde will handle the ding-dong. Tubes were laid streets (0 years ago for the transmit- ting mail by compressed air, but the project was unsuccessful.

With the Columbia five ldle, due to the examination, Pulleyn was unable to increase his score.

The Dartmouth star has fallen be- low his usual standard on field goals and has been doing his best work from the foul line. In thg Yale game he only made one basket from the floor.
