These six form the greatest combi- nation that has ever taken part in an international tournament of bil- liard experts.

There will be eight days of actual pleying, and two games Qf 000 points - each will be played each afternoon, and night on a table of the Brunswick- Balke-Collender make, fitted with Moumarch cushions.

WATERBURY CONSIDERING BAKER AS MANAGER ‘The Waterbury Eastern league club is seeking a new manager for 1923 as' Bill Gilbert, former Giant, is not to’ be retained though he landed the team in second place thik season. According to advices from the Brass City, proud home of Connecticut gov- ernor-elect, Herman Bronkie of Man- chester, who has been mentioned, 1s net likely to land the job. The rea- son given is the fact that Waterbury wants a manager who can get materi- al.frem major league teams in the Bast, while Bronkie was with the St. Louis Browns and his affiliations have been with western clubs. The . Erasscos’ committee will hold a vonference Saturday.with Home Run Baker. Letters -have been sent to several major league teams, Brooklyn and the Braves among them, asking if they have a veteran on the roster who would be apt to fill the job with suc- cess. Meanwhile Bill Gilbert is penning letters to Waterbury friends panning the Brasscos for letting him out as pilot after the good showing he,made. SHAKE IN PRINCETON TEAM FOR HARVARD Princeton, N. J., Nov. 8—Two pro- bable shake-ups in the Princeton el- even were the out e today of the team’s final scrimmage, one of the longast and hardest of the season, in preparation for the battle with Har- vard SBaturday at Cambridge. The varsity played the defensive and ev- f;" effort was made to strengthen the ine. Wingate again directed the varsity play at quarterback and it was pre- dicted he would hold down that post when the Tigers lineup against the Crimson, supplanting Gorman, ‘who starred in the - Chjcago game two weeks ago and was expected to keep the post. A second shift was the as- sighment of Stout af end in place of Tillson or Smith. The team will leave for Cambridge Thursday night. JIM CORBETT WRITES NEW BOXING RULES James J. Corbett, the former heavy- weight champion 'of the world, is just completing a new set of boxing rules which he intends to name after and dedicate to the late Theodore Roose- velt, whom he refers to as “the most illustriows boxing patron the world has known.” Corbett's new ring laws have been review by several pugilistic authorities of international reputation, who have pronounced them to be the best ever written. In an interview in ‘Indiana- polis, SBunday, Corbett said: - ““These rules are, in my estimation, more comprehensive, practical, and sportsmanlike, for modern usage, than the original Marquis of Queensbury ‘SureRelief INDIGESTION e or any other rules which have been brought out up to the present mo- ment. I have used the old ring laws, set down by the estimable Marquis, as a foundation, for my code, for which I will gladly make full acknowledge- ment. “If my rules do not prave satisfac- tory in every respect I feel reasonably sure that they will at least serve.as a first-class groundwork for the much-needed eventual ‘official inter- national boxing rules’ to be compiled by a more capable authority on the subject than myself.” MINOR SPORTS AT YALE ARE PILING UP New Haven, Nov. 8—As the foot- ball season wanes other sports come into their own at Yale and right now there is considerable interelst in many minor sports. Last evening the can- didates for the Varsity and Fresh- man basketball teams came out, some 60 for the Freshman team and 50. for the varsity. One notable absentee was Sam Pite, the local player who had some difficulty with the basketball authoritids last season. The Fresh- men put in an hour and the varsity candidates put in nearly two hours in going through the fundamentals. ‘When the football season concludes there will be additional candidates for the two teams. ‘With the formation of a Class lea- gue, which begins mnext Monday, Coach Fogarty asked for assistance, and the committee has engaged his personal choice, Winnie Kincaide, of Philadelphia. Kincaide has been pl: ing basketball for 20 years, has alw: been regarded as a wonderful play and he should be of great value to Fogarty for the reason that they thor- oughly understand each other. The Fall regatta began this after- noon on the Quinnipiac river and will centinue today and Friday the \winning class teams will have 'an opportunity of meeting the winning class team®s in the Harvard regatta. Twenty crews are . entered, which is more than have entered in a fall regatta in.a long time. The soccer football game' between Yale and Cornell which was postponed from last Saturday wil be played this Saturday afternoon. The Yale cross country teams, varsity and freshmen, will' run against Harvard and Prince- ton over the Belmont park course in Boston Saturday. Announcement has been made that there will be a minor sports book, which will admit a stu- dent to witness all sports excepting baseball and football. This book will be sold for a slight cost in the hope of getting more students interested \in watching the various sports. There is more interest ‘in Yale athletics this fall than for many years. Director of) Athletics Blossom had a meeting of the managers and assistants last eve- ning and went over the season’s schedules with them. Hereafter there will be many innovations. It is more than likely that there will be changes in the hours the basketball games ‘have been played and in the hours ‘that o%her events have been held. There will be a reception committee that will work with the managers and see that the visiting teams are ful- ly taken care of. Annquncement. was made yesterday morning of the addition of Joe Wood, the former Boston pitcher, and with the Clevelind team now, as the coach of the Freshman bageball team and the varsity pitchers. Wood has a great record as a ball player and his ex- perience should help him with Yale. He will work with Bernie Tommers. He will report in Fabruary.

RED AMES, BOXER, I8 AT LAST COUNT OUT Red Ames, one of the gamest bat- tlers in State ring history, passed away Monday at a Hartford hospital. Diabetas, from which he had been a sufferer a long time, was the cause of his death.

Mrs. Coggs- we]l having arranged for burial in Greenwood cemetery, Brooklyn. Red Ames, as a boxer, never reached the heights, but he always gave his best and had the old heart, a quality that never fails to win the admiration of lovers of the sport.

P.)— “Battling” Siki, the Senegalese fighter who some time ago detnroned Georges Car- pentier, tonight during a fight in which he was a second got himself in trouble with the boxing federation by striking the manager of the man in the ring who had knocked out his charge in the cleventh rownd Siki was benind Ercole De Balzac, the French middleweight champion, who was fighting Mauricé Prunier. In the eleventh round when Balzac took the count Siki, apparently displeased at the result, cross- ed the hing and struck Fernand Cuny, Prunier’'s manager. The spectators were furious at the assault and tried to get at Sikl. The Senegalese was rescued, however, and escorted out of the hall by the police. . Afterwards it was announced from the ring that a complaint would be filed with the French boxing federation which would meet tomorrow to decide whether Siki should be permanently disqualified from fighting under federation rules because of his misconduct.

Andrew Lotshaw, formerly trainer, 4 the Indianapolis American Associa- tion club and now a trainer of a Chi- cago professional football team, has been sisned as trainer of the Chica- g0 national league baseball club. Yale with its wealth of backfigld men, could well afford to have Capt. Jordan sit on the sidelines and watch his teammates play the big games. By the way the others are playing, his presence would not be missed to the extent of any alarming results.

According to the Har- vard Athletic association, fifty per cent. of the under-graduates will be restrioted to two tickets instead of three. The students to be so restrict- ed will be decided by a drawing Mon- day.

Woodcock, general man- ager of the Yale athletic association, tonight announced that he did not expect it would become necessary to cut the Yale under-graduates allot- ment of tickets for the Yale-Harvard game as has been found necessary at_Cambridge. 5 Mr. Woodcock, however, said that it would be two or three days be- fore all applications could be tabulat- ed and that he could not be certain that a cut would be unnecessary. He expressed surprise that Harvard had found it necessary to decrease its under-graduate’s allotments. mencement program.
