Disaster started al- most with the beginning of the game, for in the first ten minutes of play Fddie Bellefleur ran up against the husky Lewis, whom the Baltic club im- ported from Willimantic for the occa- sion, with the result that Bellefleur left the floor with a broken collarbone. He came to this city and was attended by Dr. Donohue. The game was the roughest fight in which the Laurel the game was not far along before Jackson again injured his foot, which was weak from a previous accident, but he gamely played through the con- test. In the second half l.ewis again found a victim in a 2. period of five minutes. The referee paid little attention to the most flag- rant violations of rules and allowed the rough work without any objection whatsoever. : To mplete the list of difficulties and misfortunes under which the Nor- wich boys fought, they lost the game by one point—according to the referee.

PENN DEFIES A. A. U. Declares Frederick Sanville Eligible to Compete in Swimming Events. Philadelphia, Jan. 15—The Amateur Athletic union was defied by the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania’s faculty eligi- bility committee today when Frederick Sanville was declared eligible to com- pete on the swimming team of the university. Sanville won third place in the 100 yard dash in the intercol- legiate competitions last year and was a member of the relay team. During the summer Sanville was a clerk in a hotel in the suburbs of this city where a swimming pool is among the attractions. Alleging that he had received money for instructing guests, the A. A. U. authorities declared him a professional. Sanville denied ne was guilty of professionalism and the uni- versity authorities made an investi- gation and declared him innocent. San- ville will not be used in any meet where Pennsylvania’s opponents make an objection. A statement of facts will be sent to all colleges which the Pennsylvania swimming team is sched- uled to meet and a vote will be taken by the members of the intercollegiate swimming association to decide wheth- er he will be eligible to compete in the championships. Hogsett Dartmouth’s Captain. Hanover, N. H., Jan. 15.—Robert M. Hogsett, 14, of Cleveland, Ohio, was unanimously elected- tonight as cap- j tain of the Dartmouth college football team for next season. He succeeds W. T. Englehorn, who recently re- signed because he had discovered that he was ineligible to play next fall un- der the so-called three year rule. Hog- sett played halfback and end on the varsity last fall. McDonald to Manage Hartford. Hartford, Conn., Jan. 15.—James H. Clarkin, owner of the Hartford club, in the Eastern Baseball association, announced today the selection of Si- mon A. McDonald of Hyde Park, Mass., as manager of the team the coming season. McDonald’s first professional engagement was with Waterbury in 1909 and he was with the same team in 1910. He came to the Hartford team in 1911. He is a catcher and will play his position next summer. Gignts’ First Game at Dallas. New York, Jan. 15.—The New York National league team will play the first game of its training season March 1 at Dallas, Texas, according to the schedule of early spring games an- nounced by Secretary Foster.

JESS WILLARD LIKELY A E - TO PROVE.DANGEROUS. 2 ¥ ew Aspirant to Pugilistic Title Makes Good Impression—T. Jones His Manag . 3 Although Luther McCarty is gener- glly recognized as the champion of the world among white heavyweights, his title, so recently won, is by no means secure. Among the®most prominent contenders for honors is Jesse Willard, the giant “hope” who recently knocked out Soldier Kearns and who gave Mc- Carty the hardest kind of a battle, earning a draw at the end of ten rounds. Willard is now on his way to the coast, where he hopes to get a mateh ‘with McCarty, whom he feels sure he can defeat. Gunboat Smith is another heavyweight new in California who -is also willing to box MecCarty under the proper conditions. Of the two, Willard has the better claim to preference. He has shown up to good advantage in all his con- tests, and when he met McCarty the latter was pressed to the limit of his then mediocre ability. Both have im- proved wonderfully since that time and a meeting of the nair would result in a most interesting battle. Willard is "tne tallest pugilist in the ring today. He is six feet six inches in his stock- ing feet and he tips the beam at about 220 pounds in his best condition. He has a rémarkably long reach and uses it to good advantage. He has a fair defense, but his boxing knowledge is elementary. He is so tall that his op- ponents cannot well reach his face un- der any conditions, and when he leans back, his arms protecting his body, he has an almost impenetrable defense. It has been said that Willard is too good natured ever to be a champion. Certain. it is that he is a naturally mild mannered fellow, but when stung FRIDAY, JANUARY 17th Oscar-F.

It will be Temem- bered that he knocked out Boldler Kearns with a one-two punch after be- ing hard hit, and at the time Kearns was in good condition. His chief as- set 1s a right hand uppercut, half hook, which he uses when at close range. Boxing with nren who are not so tall as he, he has been able to do much execution with the punch. There are many Wwho believe that Willard can beat McCarty. The men will probablv be matched as soon as the latter finishes his theatrical en- gagements. Willard visited Chicago re- cently, and while there he did some light work in O’Connor’s gymnasium, a well known training camp. Willard made a marked impression on the spectators, not to mention several sparring partners. Eddle Santry, a featherweight boxer in the days of Dixon, sald that Willard was one of the best men he had seen in a long time and would do well with any of the present crop. Tom Jones, manager of Ad Wolgast, is now manager of Jess Willard and is out with a sweeping chaliemge to any white man in the world. MURPHY DENIES HE SLANDERED CHANCE. Never Made Statements Reflecting on Physical or Mental Con n of the Feerless Leader of the Cubs—Didn't Say Frank Was All In. President Charles Murphy of the Chicago Cubs takes exception to the reports that have been freely circulat- ed to the effect that he had made statements refiecting on the physical or mental condition of Frank Chance, former manager of the Cubs. In a communication to the sporting editor of a Chicago paper Murphy de- nies ever having uttered anything directed against Chance. It was said in Chicago when Chance signed with President Frank Farrell to manage the Highlanders that Murphy’s stories caused him to sign to prove that he was able to handle a ball team. Murphy’s communication says: “Un- der the caption ‘Murphy Is Real Cause of Signing of Chance’ in your paper of last Saturday appears the following: The Charge. SN interviews nrinted after Chance had departed to the quiet of his home on the coast Murphy repeat- edly stated that in his opinion the orange grower could not “come back.” He argued that he was justified in putting a younger man In Chance's place, because the winner of champion- ships had served his time. It is even said the Cub president went so far as to state that an alleged attack made by Chance on a couple of dining car waiters on his recent trip to California made it look as though his mind was affected by the pitched Ils_that he had stopped with his head while bat- ting. Chance Ilater denied such a mixup.’ “In reference to the above I desire to state that I have not at any time made any statement to any person re- flecting on the mental or physical con- dition of Mr. Chance. Such a state- ment is not only cruel but maliciously false, and has doubtless been given circulation by invidious persons.” TIGER STADIUM NOT SURE. Other Thinas to Be Done With $18,000 Football Balance. According to a statement issued at Princeton by Dean Howard McClena- han, chairman of the Princeton board of athletic control, concerning that body’s meeting, the erection of an athletic stadium in the near future is not as much of a certainty as has been reported. The minutes of the meeting show that a sub-committee, consisting of Dean McClenahan, Dr. Raycroft, the head of the department of physical education, and Howard Henry, 1904, the former football end, has beene ap- pointed to consider the entire subject of Princeton’s athletic needs, and the question of the need and desirability of a stadium is only one of several important matters which the commit- tee will take up: other ~uestions which undoubtedly will come in for a part of the discussion are the building of a skating rink, the improvement of the fleld house, the training house and the -age, and several other changes to the letic equipment. The committee will make its report before the first of\] | April. so that its recommendations may be brought before the university trustees at their spring meeting. b ¢ committee will have charge of the disposition of the $18,000 balance from the McCormick football . fund, given to the association in honor of the winning of the 1911 football championship. Seven thousand dollars of this fund already have been expend- ed on the erection of a new gateway to University field. Other business transacted by the board of control was the reappoint- ment of Dr. W. S. MacLaren as physi- cian to the athletic teams, also the re- appointment of Parke H. Davis, 1893, as the Tigers' representative on the football rules committee, and the sending of an application for the elec- tlon of Princeton to the National In- tercollegiate association.

Willie Ritehie, the new Hghtweight champion ,hes the chance to uplift the boxing game. In boxing there is al- ways the necessary need of a boost and the men at the head of the classes can do much toward uplifting the game. Just a little while ago one champion wandered from his own path and came in for much abuse, so broad that it began to leak on to his profes- sion. He was being called the model of all in his game and even the fol- lowers of it ‘were not spared. Ridicu- lous it was of course, but there are many people today who believe it first hand. Ad Wolgast was never such a fel- low, but there never was any chance of him heading any pupularity contest. His arrogant ways earned him many enemies. His swell-headiness and his desire to belittle all he met turned nearly everybody outside his manager and handlers. He was one who could not stand prosperity. The president of the United States, to his apparent way of thinking, was of secondary consequence. He spoke to these he knew when he felt like it, and when in conversation he played the personal pronoun off the boards. That was Ad, and that was why Ad did not bring any great host of foilowers to the old game. Ritchie is Different. His successor is different. Ir wil- lie Ritchie will but listen to a little advice and choose wisely the person he would have as his business agent he can become the most popular light- Wweight champion that ever wore the crown. Willie has the personality, but he is handicapped by youth. It's in the young fellow that self-conscious- ness worms its way to blindness of the fact that there are others in this world. He requires somebody to bal- ance him ,to show him how to handle the things that come to the victor. It's not hard to wear out the magnet of popularity. So far Willie Ritchie ,crowned with more success than is usually al- lotted to a lad of his years, has gone along well. He made friends wher- ever he went ,and never made the boast that he could beat anybody. He was always willing he said, to try, though. Ambition was dominant in his nature, and by the old rule of “say nothing but saw wood.” He has his pile now. His future is at his feet. If he can go along as he has, when he retires he can take with him the good will and best wishes of all in the sporting game. A A Modest Youth. When he was in New York he was told, after expressing a desire to box Leach Cross, that Cross wanted him to go get a reputation before he would consider him. Willie cut loose no in- vectives. He never does. “I have done the best I can so far,” ‘was his retort, “but I suppose I'll have to do better to box some fellows. Some day maybe those same - fellows who are taunting me will be at my knees begging to get a bout with me. I'm going to try it, anyway. And that settled it. Willle went to New Orleans, beat Joe Mandot, and then came the battle that was destined to realize him his ambition . That's the kind of a boy Willle Ritchie is. More like him in the hox- ing game will improve its standing with the doubtful ones, Somse im- pressions that it is composed of rough- necks, lJowbrows and the like would soon be wiped out.

Completed tables of the racing dur- ing 1912 show that 36 stallions, all trotting bred, have sired five or more new 2.30 or better trotters—that is to say, horses which made records of 2.30 or under at the trot in 1912, writes Henry Ten Eyck White in the Chicago Tribune. The list of these stallions is an in- teresting document to horsemen and to breeders, as it points the way te those seeking the proper strains from which to breed speed at the trot . The most obvious fact of all in this connection is that the Bingen strain of the. Blectioneer family is far in advance of all other bloods when it comes to producing trotters genera- tion after generation, and with all horses of such speed and quality they are seen in ®pmpetition at the most important meetings and get thefr full] share of the money under the test of fierce competition. The extreme spccess of the Bingen strain is shown by the fact that it ia responsible in the male line for nearly one-fourth of the 292 2.80 or better trotters credited in 1912 to the 26 stalllons in the list of sires of five or more, the Bingens furnishing 71 of the total. Bingen himself has 10, his son Todd 14, his son Bingara 10, his son The Exponent 10, his som Vice Commodore 9, his son Binjolla 6, his son J. M. Forbes 6 and his grandson Cochato 7. These eight stallions com- prise nearly one-fourth of the total list, s0 their speed representation as a whole is about on a par with the rest of the distinguished company. In the matter of quality the Bingen family easily leads, as Bingara is the sire of Baden, champion class trotter of 1912, and this son Bingen even with his sire and head of other sons of Bingen except Todd ia number of new 2.30 trotters. He in only 11 years old, but had given tha turf many good trotters before Baden became a star. Through the Barm, where courtesy of Allen Baden was bred and where his sire and dam still are owned, I have secured some interest- ing figures regarding the work of thq Bingaras in 1912, as well as of othex horses bred at the Berkshire Hills lestate owned by William Russell Al- en. Briefly stated, 88 different horses bred by Allen Farm started this yea: in 344 races of 1,164 heats contested in 29 states and in Canada. Thes¢ horses won $62,422 in purses, and 2{ of them by Bingara won $50,480 Daughters of Kremlin, 2.07 3-4, alse¢ owned at Allen Farm ,are the dams of 22 horses that won $50,101.
