New Haven, Conn., Jan. 2.—Yale's football schedule for next fal, an- nounced today, contains nine games- one less than last vear. Holy Cross and Lafayette have been dropped and in their places will be Unive of Virginia and Notre Dame. Y. never met the two latter colleges in football before. invited to open the season, as been customary for many years, but on the grounds that the game was too strenuous for an opening coniest the Middletown colleglans declined the in- vitation. With the exception of the game with Princeton at Princeton, N. I., all the games will be played in New Ha- ven.” The Harvard contest is the only one, however, that will be staged in the new bowi, as it is doubtful if the field will be ready before that game. The schedule: Sept. 26, University of Maine; Oct. 8, University of Vir- ginia; Oct. 10, Lehigh; Oct. 17, Notre Dame; Oct, 24, Washington and Jeffer- son; Oct. 31, Colgate; Nov. 7, Brown: Noy. 14, Princeton; Nov. 21, Harvard.

Offer of $25,000 Fails to Tempt Heavy- weight Wrestling Champion. New York, Jan. 20.—Wrestling pro- moters here have been trying for some time to bring /Frank Gotch, the heavyweight wrestling_ champion of the ‘worid, to New York for three bouts with foreign mat stars. He was offered $25,000. Gotch refused the of- fer and says he will never wrestle again. - From his Towa farm Gotch, in re- plying to the New York offer, wrote that he positively had given up wres- tling forever. His twife and he had gone over the situation, he wrote, and nothing “will induce me to change my mind.”" The call of the foreigners and | the offer of big New York purses, he said, will never make him leave his farm again. McLean Win: s Three Events. Saranac Lake, N. Y., Jan, 29.—Robert McLean of Chicago won three of the | four senior events in the international { outdoor skating races here today.

New Bedford, Mass, Jan, 29.—Con- certed action by a majority of the ministers of the city was said to be responsible for the arrest today of five men on the charge of having promoted a boxing maich last night between Walter Mohr of Brooklyn and Fred Yelle of Taunton. For more than a vear the ministers have been active in their opposition to boxing. Jones Wins Pinehurst Tournament. N. C, Jan, 20.—J. D.

New York, Jan. 29.—Umpire Brick Owens, who was refired by_former President Lynch of the National league, made application today for a position on the National league staff. Owens is now under contract to the International league.

FINANGIAL AND COMMERCIAL New York Central, Southern Pacific and Other Issues Also Show Losses. New York, Jan. 29.—The stock market gave Way foday under pres- sure which, although not severe, was applied steadily by professional oper- {ators. At the beginning of trading the movement was confused and ir- regular, but as the session advanced the tone became distinctly heavy. Reading and Steel were singled out for bear attack$ and, together with |New Haven, New ' York Central, Southern Pacific, Smelting and a few | other representative issues, at times | showed losses of a point or more. Sell- ing was not on a large scale until the {last hour, when the shorts got the | market fairly in hand, and the list | sagged sharply. The trading element was ranged on the short side, assisted by various new influences of an unfavorable nature. Denial that Reading was contemplat- ing segregation of its coal properties, which might have bestowed valuable |rights upon shareholders, accelerated the decline in that stock. Southern Pacific's December statement was ex- ceptionally poor, showing a decline of low priced st s, some of which have been strong recently. Rumely shares were acutely weak. The common dropped 3 3-4 to 11 3-4 and the pre- ferred 6 5-8 to 2§ 1-2, both new low records. It is probable that the decline would have been more severe had it not been for extensive purchases here for for- eign account. London and the conti- nent took 40,000 or more shares on balance. Improvement in sentiment | abroad was associated with reduction in' the English and French bank | zates. Such an unusual change as a drop of 1 per cent. in the Englsh rate ordinarily would bs expected to find immediate refleciion here, but even such striking evidencs of improving monetary conditions was insffective, in view of the prevailjng, tenor of specu- lative sentiment.

Promoters Believe New Leagus Will Be on Equal Footing With Majors by 1915, Chicago, Jan. 20.—War between the Federal league and organized baseball { will continue until the latter receives | the new circuit into its fold, according to Secretary Lloyd Rickart of the Fed- erals. Rickart sald today that the Federals would continue next year their raids on the players now with organized ball whose contracts expire at_the end of this season. There are enough of these to cripple the big leagues more seriously than the ! present raid will do if they jump, said the secretary, while the Federal league belleves itself safe from counter raids because its recently acquired stars are under contracts, mainly for three years., The situation at the end of the season will be such as to force recog- | nition from the American and Nation- | al leagues, and as a third big league the Federal will operate on equal terms | with the others in 1915, its promoters Delieve. Manager Evers of the Chicago Na- tionals, who reported at headquarters today, after a tour of the south, an- nounced that a three-game series be- tween the Cubs and the St. Louis | Americans would take place at Tampa | March 4, 5 and 6, with a return en- | sagement at St Petersburg, Fla., later. | Majors Take Three From Rosebuds.

Boston, Jan, 29.—Hugh Bedlent, a Red Box pitcher of the past two sea- sonk, who was said to have been ap- proached. by Federal league agents, sent his signed contract to the Boston American olub today. Bedient express- ed himself as “highly satisfled” with the terms. Previdence Anticipates No Troub Providence, R, L, Jan. 29.—Only seven men, some of whom have de- clgred their intention of forwarding their contracts soon, remain to be signed by the Providence team of the International baseball league. Mana~ ger Donovan seld. today he had ne fear that any of the seven would join tho federal league, No Reem for Disssnslon, Philadelphia, Jan. 29.—“There 18 net the reom fer dissension or discord in the game there was in 1890," declared Governer Tener at a dinmer given at the Pen and Pencil club in recognition of his election to the presidency of the National League of Baseball Clubs, “In the present so-calied war” said Governor Tener. “less than ten per cenl of the/real experis have left their respective clubs, while in 1890 seventy-five per cent, of the stars de- serted. Any man or set of men can go into baseball, but it is unfair to spread re- ports of dissatisfaction or siave dri ing. These men who are opposing or- ganized baseball should enough to admit that they game for the money and spread improper reports conditions.” MOST EXPERIENCED MAN IN FEDERAL LEAGUE Ned Hanlon Has Seen All Natiomal Game. e in the should not concerning Sides of Without any idea or intentlon of “knocking” the new Federal league or its promoters it can truthfully be said that there is one man among the back- ers of the organization who has had more baseball experience than all of the others combined. That man is Edward Hanlon. When it comes to actual baseball experience, first as a player, then as a manager and afterward as a club owner, Hanlon has a record of past achievements that none of the other Federal generals can measure up to. “Foxy Ned,” as he was called in the old days. knows big league baseball from turnstile to flagpole, and if the new organization can be made a winy ner Hanlon looks to be the man t turn the trick. In Baltimore, where Hanlon 1= to place a Federal league team, he man- aged a National league team for sey- eral years. Later he owned the East- ern league team in the same city, Hanlon's_first move after taking over the Baltimore franchise in the Fedcral league, was to engage Otfo Knabe .the crack second sacker of the Phillies, as manager of the team. In grabbing the Philly star Hanlon showed that the prospect of a war with the National league did not both- er him, War No New Experience. A baseball war would be no new experience for “Foxy Ned.” He was with Pittsburgh when the Brother- hood was formed in 1891 and promptly jumped to the new organization. When the American league made its famous raid on the Nationals, which resulted in the capture of more than 100 play- ers of the older organization Hanlon was managing the Brooklyn _team. What the American leaguers did to Hanlon's team was aplenty. When the new league got all the Brook- Iynites they wanted Hanlon _didn’t have much better than a Class B outfit left to represent the Dodger city, Lost Out in Last Battle. Hanlon had won his second pennant for Brooklyn when the three vear war be ~ honest | ployed center field-and acted a& cap- tain for the Detroit team, which won the championship. Never a hiiter of more than ordi- nary ability, Hanlon made’ Tepu- | tation chiefly as a fielder and ns: | runner. From 1884 to 1891 he played in Pittsburgh. In 1592 he took charge i of the Baltimore team. The Orioles linished in the cellar in t year and the year following. t duiring the three years beginning with 18 they won ‘the pennant, and in 1887 and 1898 they finished in second place. Hanlon went to Brooklyn as man- ager of the Dodgers in 1889. He Te- mained there seven years and won two pennants. What he will da this season with a new team in a new league remains to be seen, | PUNCHING THE BAG. | Many Clever Boxers Fail to Show Class Against the Bladder. Whije there is a considerable section of the public that believes any ring man is of necessity a good bag punch- er, it is almost a ring axiom that 2 g00od bag puncher is never a good fighter. Neither of these ideas is quite true, though it Is a fact that a great many good scrappers cannot the bag a lick. This bag punching game is an art in itself. It Is apt to make a man's blows light, but does not necessarily do so. The first punching bag was invented for John L. Sullivan when he was on tour. The authorities refused to allow him to box, so the punching bag was made to allow him to show the public Ris blows. Jim Corbett, Sullivan's succ champion, refined the art or_as bag of | punching ‘and was the first to put it op its present footing. With T ommy Ryan, he was one of the best men at this game. Fitzsimmons added several tricks to the stunt, notably that of would break and send the bag over the heads of the audience. This took not only great cleverness but great hit- ting power, as the cords are tested to a 500 pound strain. All these men were boxers first and learned bag punching as a showing oft and were good ffhters Deside: s, the best of the present- )'at bag punching, went the other way. He learned the bag first. When he went into the ring his punch- s were mere taps. He realized this and by careful stud: Dbecame the terrific hitter he now i Rivers is a very good bag puncher. | Willie Ritchie and Abe Attell are very, fair performers, but mnot unusually 200d.
