New York, Dec. 21,—Unless there is a change In the personpel of the State Athletic Commission with in- coming of the new state administra- tion, Johnny Kilbane, Cleveland vet- eran whose world's featherweight title was declared vacated by the commis- sion, will not be permitted to box in this state, .Chairman William Mul- doon made this statement yesterday on behalf of the commission. Another statgment made by Chair- man Muldoon was that Jess Willard, Pottawatomje giaht, who formerly held the world’s heavyweight title, will under no circumstances be per- mitted to box under the jurisdiction of the present commission. The age limit, under the rules of the Boxing Board, will keep Willard ineligible for a license here, it was explained. The fact that Willard has -not beer Lindquist Parns . Smith ...

The three soldler hodles to share in the money are the American Legion, the Veterans of orelgn Wars and the Disabled American Veterans of the World War. They will divide evenly §61,066.80, each receiving $20,352.10, The remaining $60,000 was given to the two local haseball clubs for di- vision among New York charities. Here 1s the complete list of organi- zations among which the money was, apportioned: Distributed by Judge Landis Amerjcan Legion .$20,352.1¢ Vets of Foreign Wars. . 20,352.10 Disabled American Veterans of the World War...... 20,362.10 Total . $61,056.30 Distributed by N.

The dnnouncement of the local clubs made by Colonel Jacob Rup- pert, owner of the Yanks, and Secre- tary James J. Tierpey of the Giants, stated that through an oversight the Reconstruction Hospital of 395 Cen- tral Park West had been overlooked when the list was being made up, but that the two clubs would make their own special donation to that institu- tion. Colonel Ruppert, who acted as spokesman for both club owners, said that the money awarded to local charities would be distributed in time to make it available for Christmas. The checks will be mailed today. Col- onel Ruppert stated that there prob- ably would be,some delay with the checks for the Rronx charities, the club owners wishing to consult with residents of the Bronx before deter- mining on the most deserving organi- zations. “If every charity in the city which applied for part of the money had been put on the list,” sald Ruppert, “the average amount for each would have been so small that none woilld have benefited. It was our purpose to keep the number of organizations as small as we could without deing an injustice, believing 4"at the most good could be accr*Viished in the way, Undoubted® any worthy so- cietles and fund | '.ve been omitted, and we are sorry-that we ¢ould not take care of every one of them. But it was not possible, with only $60,000 at our command.” Colonel T. L. Huston, National Commander’ of the Veterans of For- eign Wars, which received $20,352.10, said that every penny of it would go to disabled soldiers, with little oyer- head expense connected with the use of the money. It is probable that the American Legion will do the same, which would mean that $61,056.30 would go toward the relief and re- habilitation of men wounded in the war.

SEASON REVIEWED ' BY WALTER CAMP Expert Points Out 16 Outstanding Features of Past Season New York, Dec. 21.—In a compre- hensive review of the football season of 1922 Walter Camp, conceded to be one of the leading authorities on the sport, has pointed out the sallent fea- tures of the campaign on the intercol- legiate gridiron as they impressed him, The article appears in the cur- rent issue of Colller's. Mr. Camp has treated the subject exhaustively, and his observations should be -~* interest to the follow whether player or spectator. He has summarized his tlons with sixteen outstanding tures of the football season. follow: To sum up the observations of the 1922 season we have: A great in- crease in the number of special play- ers—that is, the tendency to inject in- to the game a player for some par- ticular specialty, like forward passing or kicking, An additional increase in the num- ber of men playing in any one game throngh the continual injection of fresh players for tired ones, par- ticularly on the ends and in the back- field. Slowing up of the play, due to a new fashion of collecting the entire team in a group behind the line to receive the signal. Extension of the number of men enguged as assistant coaches. Almost universal numbering . of players and a corresponding increase in the enjoyment of the ‘spectator. Increase in the value of a general- ship, by means of which many a team has defeated' an opponent of far greater potentlality. 0 Decreasing ability to handle the ball cleanly, and an increase in the number of games decidéd upon ‘this observa- fea~ They football teamr of New Haven will have a banquet on Saturday night at the Hotel Garde in that city. Mickey Travers, the New Haven lightweight, has hooked up with Lew Brown, with a three years' contract. Brown plloted “Chick” Brown through a successful career, which terminated quickly after he was pelt- ed on the jaw by Benny Leonard, one evening four years ago at the Arena. Bill Cleary, a pitcher, has been ob- tained by the Pittsfleld Hillies from the Little Rock club of the Southern association. The members of the Bridgeport football team received $315.47 each as a reward for the past season. The substitutes on the team were paid $201.72 each. Yale, Princeton and Harvard, have cntered into an.agreement whereby apitball pitching will not be used in the big games next season. NEW HAVEN SELLS TWO New Haven, Dec. 21.—The New Haven Eastern league club has sola Sterling Striker, pitcher, and Marty Shay, shortstop, to the Worcester club it was announced today.

Increasing altertness of the defense in intercépting forward passes, and, therefore, a greater risk to the pass- ing team. Improving in line defense, making it almost impossible to effect any con- sistent gains through the middle of the line, Decreasing accuracy in the placing of kicks, but at the same time a better covering of those kicks, so that the advantage of a possible run-back by the receiver is not materfally in- creased. Better concealment of the intention to make a forward pass by starting this ptay through a double pass or a run, Considerable lessening of the usé of the straight arm by runners. Decrease in the longer jump shift foermations, and a jorresponding in- crease in the shorter shifts, especially those of the back fleld. Improvement in the deployment of defensive men to meet the forward pass, and a slight increase in double and triple passing and in making deceptive motions with the ball. Much less tendency to continue a partially injured or exhausted man in the line-up. A marked slackening in tackling. % QUARTERBACK IS INJURED Los Angeles, Dec. 21.—Chet Dolley, of Southern California football team. may not be able to play in the annua’ Hast vs. West contest agalnst Penn- sylvania State college at Pasadena, New Year's day, because of an in- jured knee, according to Coach EI- mer C.

Coach Spears said there was a dif- ference in the tactics of the three eastern schools — Pittsburgh, West | Virginia and Penn State—which are to play on the coast. Pittsburgh will play Stanford December 30. “We use a Iine shift, and Pitts- burgh shifts enlygher backs,” Spears said. “Then ther® is a differggce in the way we go after forward passes, The eastern teams feel they are fairly well fortified against anything the far western elevens -can spring, and, of course, hope to emerge on the long end of the score.” The Penn' State squad, composed of 22 players, traveled west in a special car, which will be dropped off at Wil- ‘Mams, Ariz, Friday night.
