His | all-star aggregation, together with a second team, is deseribed fn this week's issue of Collier's Weekly., He declares that the lineup he selects is “the strongest possible combina- tion of players” under conditions prevailing in the 1924 season. Mathewson selects Dazzy Vance, sensational Brooklyn pitcher, wWho led all major league moundsmen in number of victories and strikeouts this season, as first string boxman, with Walter Johnson, veteran Wash- ington ace. on the firing line for the | second team. Johnson, of the Senators, - and Frank Frisch, of the Giants, who s | put at third base on the first team, | are the only playing representatives of the pennant winners in either lineup, although John J. McGraw is named to lead the mythical first out- fit. Ty Cobb is chosen to play cen- terfield on and manage the second team, “Big Six" pwts only three Ameri- can league players on his team. Bassler of Detroit, FFalk of Chicago, and Ruth, but he reverses this dis- tribution of talent on the second team, which includes only three Na- tional leaguers.

Brown vs. Chicago and Yale vs. Georgia Are Events New York, Oct, T.—Four intersec- tlonal battles will feature next Sat- urday's eastern football card. The two most importunt of these strug- gles will be those hetween Brown and Chicago at Chicago and Yale and Georgia at New Haven, The Brown eleven will go to Chi- cago flushed with confidence inspir- ed by its 45 to 0 victory over Colby and Yale will await Georgla's inva- slon with the self-assurance born of her easy triumph over another southern team, North Carolina, by a 27 to 0 score Saturday. The Army will meet the University of Detroit at West Point and Syracuse will face Wililam and Mar: Syracuse in the other two Interregional contests,” Of the sectional battles, thosg in which Pittsburgh clashes with West Virginla at Pittsburgh, and Prince- ton takes on Lehigh at Princeton promise to furnish the most excite- ment for gridiron enthusiasts, In spite of a 10 to 0 defeat at the hands of Lafayette while West Vir- ginia was riding rough-shod over Al- legheny by a 36 to 0 margin Satur- day, Pittsburgh will engage the southern institute Saturday with more than an even chance of vic- tory. The Panthers were at a dis- advantage in having to meet, 80 strong a team as Lafayette thus ear- | ly in the season. Princeton will face Tehigh a strong favorite, as the Tigers buried Amherst under a 40 to 6 score while lehigh was hard pressed to defeat Gettysburg by 12 to 0. Other matches of interest on Sat- urday's slate are: Harvard and Mid- dlebury at Cambridge, Columbia and Wesleyan at New York, Penn State at State College; Carnegie Tech and Toledo at Pitts- burgh, Dartmouth and Vermont at Hanover, Pennsylvania and Swarth- more at Philadelphia, and Holy Cross and Boston University at Wor- cester.

The game displayed by Louis Wien- ecke and Phil Bunnell has not met | cxpectations and Jerry Wadsworth has not recovered fully from his re- cent injury. Dan Allen, freshman captain two seasons ago, replaced Sench at fullback. Allen is a former Andover star. Jack Fjelding, last of four fullbacks tried against the Tar Heels, was giv- en Cottle's left halfback berth. Pond alone of the regular backfleld was left. Duke Richards, freshman rush life star of last season, went into the varsity lineup, replacing Johnny Joss at left tackle. Joss had won a first string selection at tackle {wo season’s ago when he was in. jured. He was out of condition last scason and, although kept as regular tackle this season, has failed to check opponents as defensive player. H. C. Sturham, fresiman center last year, replaced Wallace, who was tried in that position Saturday, For the signal and dummy foot- Lall lineup which constituted the matinee performances of the first team, it lined up as follows: Ends, Luman and Bingham; tackles, But- terworth and Richards; guards, Ec- kart and Sturham; center, Captain Lovejoy; quarterback, Bench; half- backs, Pond and Failing; fullback, Allen. This is the propable lineup against Georgia Saturday. GENARO IS WINNER Flyweight Champion Has All the Better of Eddie O'Dowd in Their 15-Round Battle.

Paris, 7.—Desiring to stage a Jack Dempsey and Ezcudun Paolino, Spanish fighter, the proprietor of the bull ring at Bayonne recently got into touch with Dempsey’'s manager, Jack Kearns, says the Petit Parisien. The man- er, according to the paper, accept- 'd the offer on condition that Demp- scy receive a fixed sum, the amount of which is not given, in addition to a percentage of the gate receipts. The proprietor, the paper adds, 1.ow is reflecting and apparently the conditions laid down by Kearns “giv ample food for reflection.” SECTIONAL GAMES LATEST SCANDAL MAY 7ET SLATED THIS WEEK| BECOME NEW TEAPOT DOME This Is What Ban Johnson Thinks, if Government Will Only Take Up In- vestigation of Alleged Crookedness — Believes O’Connell’s Story. e Chicago, Oct. 7. — It the United | States government steps in and makes a law providing for federal jurisdiction over baseball, as has Leen suggested, the present baseball scandal may develop into another Teapot Dome, Bresident Ban John- son, of the American league, is quoted as saying in special dis- patches received here from Excel- sior Springs, Mo., where he has gone for his health. His statement was made while referring to the expul- sion of Jimmy O'Connell and Cozy Dolan of the New York Glants. Asked if he would work with Commnussioner K. M. Landis in the latter's plan to clean up baseball, | President Johnson said: “No indeed. Landis quit on the investigation when we were trying to bring the crooked White 8ox players to trial. The American league accomplished that alone and there was a lot of work to it. “The facts of this later scandal must be exposed and all the guilty ones punished or the game of base- ball is in danger of being wrecked. IT shall demand that the entire mess ibe aired. The public demands ft. |There have been other cases of crooked baseball this season, not in the American |gague, but plenty of it elsewhere, "Not many people know it but conditions on the Paci- ific coast have been rotten this year. Most of the sure-thing gamblers who were mixed up in the scandal of 1919 are out there operating. 1 found that as much as $100,000 had been bet on a single game in Los Angeles, “You know as well as T do and the public knows that Jimmy O'Con- nell's story rings with truth. There certainly were others involved {n that attempt to bribe an opposing player to throw a bail game. The thing should have been thoroughly cleaned up right there. The Giants should never have been allowed to go into the world serles, but Landis was content to banish two players, one of whom confessed. He simply hushed up the scandal and by =0 do- ing has protected the real culprita. “I could not work with Landis In cleaning up this mess. Tt must be done by unbiased parties. Landis seems to be very close to McGraw and the New York ball club. T can- not see where I could get results working with him.” .Bobby Wolgast Ij(;es On Foul to Martin Roston, Oct, T.——Eddie (“Cannon- ball”) Martin of New York, won from Bobby Wolgast of Philadelphia in the eighth round of a scheduled ten round boxing bout here last night when the Philadelphian was disqualified for holding. Martin had led throughouf. Each weighed 119 pounds. Tommy Murray of Philadelphia won the decision over Johnny Cut- bert of England in the eighth round scmi-final. Cyclone Harris of Worcester was fouled by Wolf Lar- &en of Boston In the third round of their scheduled eight round prelimi- nary, the referee ruled, anH awarded the bout to,Harris.
