If Percy Haughton Decides to Quit— Had Good Season With Hopkins. It Percy D. Haughton retires as coach of Harvard, Charles E. Brickley, captain of the 1914 foortball team, may take his place. Although Brickley has sigried again to coach the John Hopkins eleven next fall, it is believed he would be permitted to cancel that contract if Harvard tenders him the position of head coach. Brickley has demonstrated in more ways than cne that he has the knack of instilling into other men the “points” which he picked up while a pupil of Haugkton's. He taught the Penn State boys the art of drop-kicking last summer, which served them in good stead dur- ing the sqason, and then jumped over to Baltimore, taking a nondescript squad of players and turning out the best elevens ever developed at Johns Hopkins. The Johns Hopkins team, although it lost two games, both to opponents out of its class, succeeded in scoring in every contest played. The season at Baltimore, too, was a big success financially, and the Southerners are besieging the Everett youtn to re- turn in 1916, Brickley always was an apt pupil and found little trouble in trans- ferring the basic truths of football, both in theory and action into the men under him. With Brickley acting under the careful eye of Haughton, and assisted by a corps of associate coaches, Har- wvard football would bid fair to keep up its triumphant victories of the past four seasons over Yale, even if “Honorable Percy retired, to the extent of just “hanging around” and “help- ing out.” M’GORTY’S SECONDS THREW UP SPONGE. American Middleweight Was Easy For Champion of Australia. Sydney, N. S. W., Dec. 27, via Lon- don. — Les d'Arcy, the middleweight champion of Australia, easily defeated Eddie McGoorty, an American middle- weight, in the eighth round of their match. McBoorty was punished so severely that his seconds threw up the sponge. The fight was witnessed by 16,000 persons.

In the meantime the Na- tional Colegiate Athletic Association will hold its annual meeting here and a printed report of today's session will be ready for the delegates so that they will have plenty of time to digest the suggestions offered.

Gustavus Kirby of he advisory com- mittee of the Intercollegiate Associa- tion of Amateur Athletes of America, was chosen by acclamation as presi- dent.

Burns said he was in telegraphic communication today with Tom Jones, Willard’s manager and T. S.

Whitney of the United States Golf Assoclation, said that his association was rapidly suc- ceeding in teaching its members the marked distinction between amateurs and professionals by a campaign of publicity. He hoped that the confer- ence would recommend a hard and fast rule and the golf association would respect it by living up to it by rigid enforcement. President Robert D. Wrenn, of the National Lawn Tennis Association, said that while he did not wish to give the imression that his associa- tion had been over-lax, he believed the amateur line had not been strictly enforced. He regretted there was no rule in tennis prohibiting the capital- ization of athletic fame, but if a defi- nite rule were adopted it would be backed up to the letter by his asso- ciation. Dr. G. M. Hammond said that the Amateur Fencers' League stood for nothing except pure amateurism. Dr. Reginald Sayre, for the United States Revolver Association, said there never was any _distinction between amateur and professional shooters and believed it would be impracticable to draw the line. Charles Somers, owner of the Clev land club and the Cleveland bankers, will be at the meeting and the league president said he hoped that an ar- rangement could be made with the banks in whose hands Somers’ stock has been for some time, whereby Somers could resume his plale at the head of the club. of ath- HINKEY SAVED YALE.
