Maynand One of the Best—Only Tips Scaies to 158 Pounds. Bd Maynard, the Pennsylvania tackle weighs only 158 pounds and is ranked with the best in the country. Maynard plays his position very much after the manner of Bull Lowe, who was to have Leen captain of the Fordham team this season but went to France with the Fordham Ambuiance Unit. Maynard’s size and his ability remind us of othet light tackles who made remarkable rephtations. In _the early nineties Jos Upton was the lightest man in the Harvard line. He scaled at 156 pcunds. His 1890 Up- ton faced Billy Rhodes of Yale all through a fierce contest which Harvard won. In 1392 he opposed Walls, anoth- er equally great Yale tackle, and was in the game at the finish. In 1900 Ralph Davis of Princeton weighing only 160 pounds played tackle oppo- site Bloomer of Yale, who weighed close to-200 pounds. Bua this was Davis’ only year at tackle. He was -shifted to end, where he distinguished himself three years following. Jack Minds of Pennsylvania played tackle against aylor of Princeton in 1894, weighing less than 160 and his oponent was at least twent-yfive pounds heavier. John B. ler in Marine Corps. Newark, N.

Leonard Wins From Brown In Fifth Referee Stops Bout After Champion Sent Brown to Mat Twice—Leonard’s Fight From Start to Finish—Leonard| Given Technical Knockout. pe— New Haven, Conn, Dec. I7.—Bemny Teonard of New York, champion light- weight boxer, scored & _ technical imockout cver Chic Brown of New Ha- ven here tonight in the fifth round of a scheduled ten round bout at the Ryan Athletic club. After two min- utes of the fifth round were gone Brown had been floored for a count of nine wvhen Leonard drove his right to the New- Haven man’s jaw and then repeated for a similar count with his left. Brown got up but the referee stopped the go. The champion was master of the lo- cal boxer all the way and felt out his opponent in _the two opening rounds. In the third he got to Brown's stomach with two terrific punches which staggered Brown. More blows to the same spot in the fourth paved the way for the final session. In the fifth Brown began taunting Leonard and stuck out his chin and the cham- pion quickly sent his right thero flooring Brown and then followed this up by using his left to as good advan- tage and was measuring his man for the knockout when Referee Fitzgerald stepped between the fighters and waved Brown to his corner and de- clared Leovard the winner. Battling Lahn of Brooklyn won_ the decision over Billy Fitzstmmons of New Haven, in a ten round ecatchweights bout. Yount Mufligan of New [Haven was knocked out in 59 seconds by Battling Green of Hartford in a scheduled six round match. KID WILLIAMS AND JOHNNY ERTLE FIGHT DRAW Twelve Round Mill at Baltimore Ends in No Decision. Baltimore, Md., Dec. 17.—Kid Will- jams and Johnny Ertle fought twelve rounds to a draw here tonight. Landing a right hand smash square on the jaw of Williams, Ertle sent the Baltimorean crumpling to the mat in the ‘second session. When he toppled to the caavass, Williams stretched out and he sesmed down for the full count. Just as the arbiter had reached the count of eight, Williams strusgled weakly to his feet, made a game ford to fignt back, but soon went down again from a volley of left and rights, which wers varied to the head and body. Not realizing what was going on, Willlams was up more quickly this time but was helpless when the gong sounded, saving him from a knock- out. Displaying remarkable recuperative powers, he safely weathered the third and fourth and in the fifth, again’ his old self, started in to dea} out a ter- rific lacing to the St. Paul lad. After the fifth, excepting probably the eleventh, when Hrtle once more mede his knes buckle with a right, Williems did practically all the fght: ng. Harry Greb Given Ducision Over- Gus Christie. ¢ Cincimmati, O., Dec. 17.—Harry Greb of Pittsb ’h was awarded the de- cision over Gus Christie of Milwaukee here tonight at the end of the twelve fast rounds. Greb forced the milling practically all the way and had his man considerably marked at the end of the fight. The men are middleweights. but did not weigh in, entering tbe‘ring at catchweights. ‘Ted Lewis Shades Bryan Downey. Columbus, 0., Dec. 17.—Ted Lewis of England, weiterweight title holder, had a shade the better of Bryan Downey of Columbus in a hard twetve round fight here tonight, in the opinion of fight critics. No decision was given. lewis dropped Downey to his haunch- es with a short left jab in the eleventh as Downey was coming in. The champion used his lezt effec- tively but was forced to extend him- self to the limit.

Rallies of one to two npoints oc- curred in the active final hour, restor- ing some issues to last week's final prices, while a few industrials- and rails scored nominal gains. Prominent among the new minimums of the session were such rails as Un- ion Pacific, Northern Pacific, Norfolk and Western and Atchison and indus- trials of the calibre of the American Tobacco, Texas Company and Mexicat Petroleum. Specialties of the inactive class re- acted two to five points, with one to three for shippings, coppers and mo- tors, while American Telephone, Ctn- | solidated Gas and Western Union were weak at or near new low records. Clonsolidated Gas of Baltimore made a net decline of 12 points, Sales amount- ed to 460,000 shares. - Liberty 4s duplicated their minimum at 97, later recovering to 97.16, the 3 1-25 ranging between 98.46 and 98.50.

HERZOG WILL NOT PLAY FOR McGRAW Nothing Against Club or President But Refuses to Play While McGraw is Manager. Any person who doubts that Charies Lincoin Herzog is through with the Gi- ants need only discuss the matter a few moments with tho fiery New York field captain. The popuiar “Herz” says he will not play another zame of ball for John J. McGraw, ard says he is willing that the whole world know it. ..The Maryland farmer bubbled over in conversation with President Hamp. stead of the Giants in the wee h early yesterday morning, and full of wrath even yesterday noon. Herzog insist nothing can be gained by trying to reconcile him with Mc- Graw, and that under no conditton will he play with the Giants as long as McGraw is manager. ‘T succeeded in putting by a litue since 1 started playing bali” d Herzog, “and 1 guess if 1 guit now 1 would have enough to keep me from the poor house. llowever, 1 do not in- tend to quit unless I am forced 1o, and am therefore giving President Hemp- stead a chance to trade me. I have nothing against llempstead or the New York ciub. My only disugreement is ‘with McGra B Herzog's main grievance . is that McGraw requested the club to hold back the pay he lost last fall when he took ‘a rest toward the end of the season after McGraw promised him that this money wouild be paid him. The amount of salary Herzog lost was $333. ‘Herzog yesterday rehearsed all of his grievance against McGraw. He insists McGraw got him back be- cause McGraw felt he was slippins, es- pecially - after finishing last in 1915. Herzog also brought up the Brooklyn incident of 1916, when he said, he was incensed at the Giant leaders’ attack on the team aiter the boys had won 26 straight games. As captain of the team aocused Herzog said he was in- censed more than at any other time in his baseball career, but agreed to forget the matter. The Chicago, Cincinnati and Boston clubs, the clubs to which Herzog ex- pressed a desire to be traded, are all eager to land the piayer. It is likely that Weegham will land him. though Staliings is making a big bid and is ready to turn over a right handed pitcher, other players and cash for the crack infielder. YOST S8CARED MICHIGAN INTO HIRING HIM Nearly Beat Wolverines When Playing as Coach of Ohio Wesleyan. after- No man connected with football ot more extensive press work during the season just closed than Fielding Yost, Michigan’s famous ‘“hurry-up” coach. The fact that the Ann Arbor people were breaking back into the conference gave Yost great added value as-a news item and he was thoroughly exploited. Yost long has been a wonderfully strong factor in western football and worth all of the press work he get at any time. but the best story of all that is told of the famous Michigander. is how he first came to attract attention at Ann Arbor. s a story of the long ago because Yost has been at the Wolverine establishment so anciently that it is almost out of recollecti of the oldest inhabitant. . .
