Former Stars Displeased With Showing of Past Year, There has been a great dead of dis- There has been a great deal of dis- Yale graduates who show their inter- est in the Blue football team by com- ing back to New Haven each year to try to help the younger coaches turn out teams able to meet Harvard and Princeton. It s the opinion of most of the old stars that the present system of coaching is altogether wrong, and that a change must be made next year. The principal complaint of the older and more experienced men is that any system which allows a youngster just graduated from college to take sole command of the team and refuse to listen to the advice of others is wrong and should not be allowed to hold its place at \% One of the veterans on his return from the game to New York expressed the feeling of many when he made an attack on the present system. He wound up by saying: “How can a team make good when it is deprived of the services of such a man as Wal- ter Camp? I know that this man, who has done so much for Yale in the foot- ball field, has not been consulted by the coaches during the entire season. Think that over and draw your own conclusions. There was a feeling among many former Yale stars that the team could not win against Harvard, and ome of the most famous players that ever wore the Blue actually paid his bets before going to the game, giving as his reason lack of confidence in the team; that it did not know the rudiments of football, and that after the showing made against Princeton nobody but the most rabld partisan could think a Yale victory possible, It Is assured that the present system of coaching will not be continued. Bev- eral plans have been discussed, but en.

Brush Heirs Will Not Sell. Indianapolis, Ind., Dec. 2—Harry N. Hempstead, son-in-law of the late John T. Brush and slated to succeed him as president of the New York Na- tional League club, today declared there was absolutely no truth in the | report that the Brush heirs will sell the club. He said he had not heard of any negotiations for the sale of the club to two prominent horsemen as was reported last night. Mr. Hempstead will go to New York within a few days to take charge of ! Mr. Brush’s affairs there. BUMMERGIAI. ERRATIC MOVEMENTS. Decision in Harriman Merger Case Confuses Speculators. New York, Dec. The supreme court’s decision in the Harriman mer- ger case upset the gtock market today after a listless morning session. The announcement from Washington was followed by an outburst of selling with Union Paci the especial object of attack. There were large of puthern Pacific as well and virtually all of the favorite stocks, including industrials as well as railroads, shared in the movement. Union Pacific broke 2 1-2 points, outhern Pacific . two and Reading, Steel, Amalgamated and other prominent shares a lesser amount, The market met with prompt sup- port at the lower level and prices quickly rallied. The decision was un- expected to many persons and the first impulse was to sell, but on second thought there was a decided change in sentiment. Losses were largely made up and the Harriman issues scored their best figures of the day. Union ,Pacific preferred “was bought heavily' and at one time showed a gain of six d a half. The upward movement was attrib- uted to speculative buying on the the- ory that the court’s ruling would ne- cessitate a_distribution of Union Pa- cific's holdings of Southern Pacific. Some of the Harriman bond issues also advanced, in the belief that their retirement might be made necessary jas a part of the adjustment which must now be made. Southern Pacific collateral fours at one period regis- ereq a gain of § 1-2 points and Oregon Short Line fours of three points. The court’s decision, however, opened up s0 many possibilities for speculation as to the effects of the readjustment that the trading element was confused and movements of securities were er- Before the close the market e vy again.

Stocks were unaffecteq by money conditions, prices having held firm until the mar- ket was upset by th® announcement of the Harriman decision. The chief influence of high money rates was to reduce speculation on the stock ex- change to a minimum. Some of the specialties developed marked strength in the early part of e day. Rubber rose to the high point touched in the movement last April and tobacco issues were buoy- ant.

Midget Established Record for Work- ing Pitchers for Free Trips to Initial Sack. Owen Bush of the Detroit Tigers must have a couple of regrets as he scans the records showing the num- ber of bases on balls received by the American league players last season. The midget drew more passes than anyone else—110 all told, three ot which were of the casualty kind—but all he gets for transportation Is hon- orable mention. One of his regrets is that Fugh Chalmers, when he decided to have a competition among the American league players for a car, did not offer the prize to the player who obtained the greatest number of pass- es instead of to the plaver who was ¢he most valuable to his team. Regret No. 2 is that the scoring rules of 1912 as regards bases on balls are not the same as they were in 1887. Then when a player received his bases on balls he was not exempted from a time at bat, but he did get credit for making a base hit. Under the 1887 scoring rules Bush's batting average would have been .351. Bush undoubtedly established an American league record last season by obtaining 110 passes. In 1908 Fielder Jones of the Chicago White Sox pro- cured 102 complimentary tickets to first ‘base from the pitchers—a record which held until this past season, when Edale Collins equalled it and Bush sur- passed it. All the passes that Connis Mack’s famous secgnd sacker obtained in 1912 were of regulation kind, and not once did he get to first on & Red Cross complimentary. The third cleverest player in the American league last season in work- ing the twirlers for gifts was Maurice Rath of Chicago, who garnered 99. Shotten of St. Louis ranked fourth, with 94, and Tris Speaker of Boston, who won the Chalmers trophy, was fifth with 81 Strong Eleven in 1913. Harvard's chances for a strong team for next season look promising. Four of the regulars depart in Capt. Wendell, Sam Felton, Harry Gardmer and Derry Parmenter. Of the nine substitutes only Bradley and Wigglesworth will be in collego next fall. Of the twenty men used against Yale fourteen come from Massachusetts, two from New York state, one from Michigan, two from Pennsylvania, and one from Ha- wail. Seven of the regular cleven came to Harvard from preparatory schools, while the public schools are represent- od by the four others, who are Capt. Wendell, Frank O'Brien, Charles Brickley and Derry Parmenter. Brickley, Harwick, Storer, O'Brien and Pennock will spend the winter at track work, while Harry Gardner, aft- er a short respite, will join the hockey team, of which he is captain. Hitch- cock will join the swimmers, while Parmenter and Trumbull will do_in- door winter work with the crew. ~Sam Felton will come opt for baseball next spring. Three men must be considered in the running ‘for the captaincy. They are Tackles Storer and Hitcheock, both Juniors, and Brickley, who is a sopho- more. Receipts Amount to $70,000. Yale's football receipts for the sea- son will amount to about $70,000. This includes $34,000 from the Harvard game; $28,000 from the Princeton game; $10,000 from the Brown game and ' the remainder from the minof contests. This will be easily increase by $100,000 another year with the open- ing of the new concrete stadium at Yale and the game in the Harvard stadium. Yale'’s outlook for next season is fair, with Talbott, Ketcham, Pendle- ton, Warren, Every, Flynn, Carter, Arnold, Pumpelly, Markle, Castles and Cornell of this fall's veterans, in the squad. Ketcham, center, will probably be elected 1913 captain next week. In case the present coaching system is continued, Spalding, Philbin, Bomeis- ler and Cooney will probably be the coaching staff f8r next season. Sixteen to Receive “P.” Philadelphia, Dec. 2.—Recommenda- tions for the award of sixteen letters to football players of the University of Pennsylvania were made tonight at a2, meeting of the football committee. Only those members of the squad who participated in efther the Michigan or Cornell games were declared eligible to receive the varsity “P." They were Mercer, Minds, Marshall, Harrington, Cralg, Chandler, Heilman, Jourdet, Dillon, Greene, Simpson, Journeay, MacNaughton, Kelliher, Wilson and Young. The election of captain for 1913 will be held tomorrow, Bundy to Marry Miss Sutten. Los Angeles, Calif., s Clark Bundy, joint holder with Mauric E. McLoughlin of the national cham- pionship in tennis doubles and Miss May Sutton former world’s champlon in women's singles ,will be married here December 11. Announcement was made today by Mrs, Bundy. Miss Sut- ton after defeating all rivals in this country, went abroad and won the world's title in women's singles, los- ing it after two years by default. Sutton vs. Morningstar For 18.1 Title Pittsburg, Dec. 2—The world's championship title for 181 ballk line billiards will be played in this city on January 9, 10, and 11, George Sut- ton having challenged Ora Morning- star ,of this city, present holder. The winner 1 sto receive the title, dimond trophy, all gate receipts and a purse of $1,000 offered by Harry Davis of Pittsburg.

Frank Pearson assistant manager of the Taftville Soccer team writes the Bulletin that he wil laccept the chal- lenge from Manager Paylor of the Westerly team, but cannot arrange for & game until the end of the regular schedule. He would like to hear from the Westerly manager in regard to a game ot same later date. Taftville also challenges any team in tho state for games at Taftville or at any other place. Kilbane and Dundee Matched. Los Angeles, Cal, Dec. 3.—Johnny Kilbane of Cleveland, world's feather- weight champion, will defend his tifle at Vernon arena agamst Johnny Dun- dee of New York either Feb. 22 or March 17 next, according to a_mes- sage received today from Jimmie Dunn, the champion’s manager. Dunne telegraphed to Promoter Tom McCarey that the latter's terms for the match were satisfactory and that the fight would take place on one of the two holldays mentioned. Noank Nuggets Challenge The Noank Nuggets are eager to se cure games with out of town basket- ball teams, especially Willimantic, MANY TWIRLERS FAIL WHEN UNDER FIRE Pitoher Needs Something Besides Brawn According to Billy Evans. Billy Evans, the well known arbiter of the American league, says: “All things being apperently equal, why are some pitchers so much superior to others? Watch them during the warm-up perfods, and there appears to be little if any_ difference in the speed and curves. Put them into the game and the difference immediately aeserts itself. 1t is the test under fire that proves the relative merits of the boxmen. Lots of people labor under the impression that speed, curves and strength are the necessary requisites Of a great pltcher. True, few pitchers acquire greatness unless they have plenty of speed and a good curve; vet those two assets are far from being the most essential. I know any num- ber of pitchers who possess terrific speed, who are the masters of an as- sortment of puzzling curves, yet they are only mediocre when put to the test. I could name a dozen pitchers who appear to have nothing, vet they must be classed as really great twirl- ers. ‘A brain that is able to think quick- ly, a heart of oak and a good disposi- tlon are even more essential to good pitching than speed ang curves. There are lots of twirlers who are unhittable In batting practice, but who have nothing when sent to the mound. There are many pitchers who are wonders Just as long as the bases are empty but who blow just as soon as_th sacks get populated. Many go along smoothly just so long as their sup- port remains intact; but a few errors will cause them to establish new al- titude records. These pitchers have the speed, the curves and the strength to be stars, but something more es- sentiel is lacking. “On_the other hand, you certain pitcher warm up, comment on his lack of speed and faulty curve| You probably have seen him pitch many a brilliant game, yet you wonder how he does it. You compare him with some other mem- ber of the staft who has a world of speed and a fast breaking curve, vet is unable to win. It resolves itself into a puzzle that you are unable to solve. You say to yourself he must be lucky, but he isn't. It is a pretty safe bet that the gentleman who ap- pears to have nothing Is some pitcher. ‘“Fandom continually hears the praises sung of Mathewson, Walsh, Rucker, Johnson and the other star twirlers in the two big leagues. Their deeds of valor are being constantly related. They are great pitche merit all the praise handed them. Still no pitcher in the business is more interesting to me than the veteran Jack Powell of the St. Louls Browns. Powell is what a lot of players who are unable to hit him term a ‘moth- ing pitcher” Usually when a star is unable to do anything with the stick he contents himself by Insisting that the pitcher who is fooling him has ‘nothing,’ meaning neither speed for curves. You hear plavers make that remark about Jack Powell, (more than any pltcher in either league, yet Amer- ican league. umpires to a man will tell you that Jack Powell has ‘some- thing’ and they are more lable to miss strikes on him than many of the stars, “There are few pitchers in baseball like Jack Powell. His nerve is un- limited. No situation is too tough for him to tackle. He is best in the pinch es. Like Mathewson, Powell always takes into consideration the fact that there are eight other players on the fleld beside himself. With no one on the bases, he delights in having the players hit the ball, provided their efforts don't go safe. More fiy balls, and long ones, are hit off Powell than any other pitcher. When things are breaking easily Jack Is getting aw: in the same manner. When the pinch comes he always has something on the ball. He can show the batters | just a little more speed, and a little better curve than he has previously been serving them. Perhaps nothing makes Jack's delivery look easier to hit _than his peculiar windup. It is, perhaps, *stretching the point to refer to it as a windup. All he seems to do is to make a quick hitch, and the ball is on top of the batter before he realizes it. “It is Powell's lack of a windup that makes him look easy, but those who know will tell you that it is this quick delivery that puszles the bats- men. On top of this no situation, no matter how critical worrles Jack Don’t forget that it was Powell who stopped Walter Johnson after that wonderful twirler had won 16 straight games. It took some pitching to beat the Nationals 3 to 2 that day, for Johnson allowed four hits and struck out an even dozen men. It is a stout heart, merve unlimited and supreme confidence in his own ability:~ that make Powell the great pitcher he is, though spectators continually rave be- cause the home players can't hit his offerings. ‘I could hit Powell mygelf,” was the remark I heard a speftator make one day as I was leaving the Cleveland grounds. Jack had just fin- ished pitching a brilliant game against the Naps. Powell was so good that day that I couldn’t refrain from chal- lenging the fan. ‘If you really think 0, I sald, ‘come around tomorrow be- fore the game sterts and Powell will bet you two to one that you can't even make a foul’ I know Powell well enough to feel sure he would have made the bet, if I had related the circumstances ‘to him. It Is needless to say the fan didn't come around | for any batting practice. “Pltchers must be able to do some- thing besides getting the ball gver the plate. In fact, most pitchers who are successful likey to get the ball over by the narrowest margin possible. They much prefer making the batter hit bad or just fair balls instead of merving him’ cripples, as balls through the heart of the plate are called. Pitchers who are successful to a large degree owe their success to making the batter hit something he dowsn’t like. It is the good pitcher who can make the batsman accept something he ®oesn't want.” watch a and you Army-Navy Agreement Ended. Annapolis, Md., Dec. 2—When the football game between army and navy at Philadelphia ended last Saturday the agreement covering the playing of these contests terminated, and negotia- tions for its continuance will be begun or a new plan will be assumed. While there is every reason to believe the annual match will continue indefinitely the ahletic authorities of the two schools will now have to renew dis- cussion of the date for playing future games.
