KILLINGER WILL ASSIST BEZDEK AT PENN STATE Penn State Football Candidates Re- port for Work Saturday State College, Pa., Aug. 28.—Foot- ball practice opens at Penn State next Saturday when a squad of about 30 candidates will report to Coach Hugo Bezdek for the first workout. Most of the players have notified Graduate Manager Neil Fleming that they will reach here on Friday so that they will be in readiness right from the start. Dezdek faces a big task in building | a team this fall and it is fortunate | that he is to have as his right-hand man Glen Killinger, former All-Amer- ican star at the Nittany -institution. Killinger is at present playing ball with the Atlanta Club of the Suuthrzrn' League, but will report here for the opening of the practice. The Penn State coaching staff will be a small one this fall from all in- dications, just Bezdek, Killinger and Trainér Nate Cartmell, This is the! smallest staff since the S. A, T. C. year when Bezdek played almost a lone hand with great success. The addition of Killinger to the coaching staff gives Bezdek a helper who is thoroughly versed in his system and who was himself a product of that system. It was Bezdek's coaching that carried Killinger to the heights and the latter will now be able to work side by side with his former.teacher in the perfection of the 1923 grid ma- chine, Most of the members of last year's team will be on hand for the practice this fall, the only losses being Bentz center; Logue and McMahon, tackles, and Hufford, end. It is also possible that Bill Hamilton, sub center, will be absent. The returning veterans are Capt. Bedenk, right guard; ¥Flock, left backs, and Wents, fullback. Dick Schuster, big tackle who was ineligible solve one line problem, while Boyd, Ellwood and several other substitutes will be fighting hard for line berths. All of last year's freshman squad will also be available and the 1922 yearling eleven was one of the best ever de- veloped at Penn State. f— | YESTERYEARS IN SPORT 1922-—Paaro Nurmi.

DECISIVE DUND Philadelphis, Aug. 28.—Eddie “Kid"” Wagner of Philadelphia, deci- sively outpointed Johnny Dundee, world's featherweight champion, in an eight round bout here last night, in the opinfon of thé majority of news- paper men at the ringside. - Dundee, throughout the fight, was within easy reach of Wagner's léft. Hook after hook landed on the cham- plon's face, practically closing his left eye in the third round. In only ene up at all well. Five of the others were awarded to Wagner while two were counted as draws, Only in the sixth did Dundee man- age to dodge the local boy's 1éft long enough to get in any blows of his own. 'By use of his famous jumping tactics he kept clear and kept busy. There was no little at stake, . and Dundee entered the ring at the junior lightweight limit, 130 pounds.

Eddie continually kept his left in Dundeé's face, concentrating on Johnny's left eye, which he had dam- aged early in the bout. Jack Rider of New York, substitut- ing for Joe Burman, who appeared in the ring with a 'broken hand, out- pointed Battling Mack of Camden, in round of the eight did Dundee show |a séven round bout. Al Gordon of Philadelphia lost on a foul in thé second round of the open- ing bout to Billy Devine, also of this city. Harry “Kid"” Brown, a Philadelphia lightweight, outclassed Jack Darcy of New York in the second bout of the night. Ad Stone stopped Frankie Britton in the third round. Britton dislocated his hand, dropping a punch on Stone's head. Stone was leading up to the time the fight was stopped. THURSTON'S FEAT IS NOT DUPLICATED IN BASEBALL ‘White Sox Pitcher Emulates Magiciap Nantesake; Retires Side on Nine Straight Strikes Chicago, Aug. 28.—The feat of Pitcher Thurston of the White Sox in retiring the opposing sidé on nine straight strikes is without parallel in major league ball as far as discerned by the records. Pitehing against the top of the Philadelphia batting order in a recent game, which the Athletics finally won in 13 innings, Thurston retired the hard-hitting A's on nine pitched balls. The first pitch to Outfielder Mec- Gowan, leadoff man, was a called strike. He swung at the next ball and missed. The third was a called strike. McGowan went to the bench for the customary drink of water. Up steps Chick Galloway, hard-hite ting shortstop. Galloway swings at the first pitch and misses. The second pitch is a ‘called strike. A healthy swing that fails to connect with the third pitch send Galloway bench- ward. The crowd is beginning to enthuse over the unusual feat, The slugging third sacker, Sammy Hale, is next up. Hale swings at three perfect strikes, missing each and every gne by a healthy margin. Thurston had retired the side on nine pitched balls, three called strikes and six missed strikes. Not so much as a puny foul was made off his de- livery in that inning. Practically every one of the nine pitches was identical; the ball was delivered over the side or inside corner of the plate, about six inches above the knee. “I would have called every one of the pitches a strike if the batters had failed to swing at them,” remarked Umpire Hildebrand, who was back of the plate. “I never saw a pitching feat quite like it in all my years of expérience,” commented Connie Mack, manager of the Athletics. SUZANNE VS, MOLLA, Paris, Aug. 28.—Suzanne Lenglen is quoted by L’Aulo’s Cabourg corres- pondent as saying that “Mrs. Moella Mallory is justly considered the champion of the New World, but if she is judged on her perfermance¥ in Irance and England it is difficult to put her in the front rank of the in- ternational player: In 1921, 197 French fortunes paid 8,000,000 franes each in income taxes, (Conunued on ‘Following Page) PIGS XNUCKLES AND SAUERKRALT ~ AND MASHED POTATOES—~ HAS DECIDED To THE CUT ouT NOON DAY MEAL FOR A WH I} ILE JusT TAKE OFF WE IGHT AND | FEEL LIKE A MiLLION DoLL;—\iE/ e R Too which French say proves that wealth's becoming moré concentrated.
