Admiral Henry B. Wilson, commandant of the naval acad- emy, said that the invitation had been received here several weeks ago and acceptance was approved by officials of the navy department and the An- napolis athletic officers. Secretary Denby was In hearty accord with the accept- ance of the invitation, Admiral Wilson said, Midshipmen on the varsity squad volunteered to give up other Christmas vacations to make up for the loss of time required to make the trip. Navy officers said they wel- comed the opportunity to show the football team to hundreds of officers and thousands of men with the Pacific fleet who never have a chance to see the team play. This marks the first occasion when the navy team has been permitted to make such a long trip. It will give them Tour games away from home this season as regular games are scheduled with Pinn State, Princeton and the Army away from Annapolis. PASADENA, Cal., Sept. 27. Selection of a Pacific coast team to meet Annapolis in the annual t-West football game which will be played here New Year's day, is in the hands of the Pacific coast intercollegiate conference.

High prices charged for admission @nd the system carried out in New York in the past two years whereby a fan had to buy a ticket for the whole series or a half of the series to get a reserved seat has also hurt the attendance. New York now has the two biggest “Baseball parks in the country.

ECONOMY OF FIRPO COST HIM PLENTY SA5 Jimmy De Forrest: “Firpo, if properly instructed, could have whipped Dempsey. He has the stuff,’ Jimmy is sore, of course, because Firpo didn’t keep him as coach and trainer. But he js probably right in what he says. Firpo let De Forrest go be- cause he wanted to save money. How much he saved the writer does not know. But say $5,000—a very liberal guess. He saved $5,000, and by so doing, was whipped, and thus lost $1,000,000 —perhaps $2,000,000, Firpo had Dempsey groggy and al. most out as it was. A word or two from De Forrest, had he been in his corner, a bit of advice after the first round, might have made him world’s champion, HOREMANS IS BACK AGAIN Edouard Horemans, Belgian cham. pion 18.2 balkline billiardist, has re- turned to America after a summer's tour of Europe and will take a short Playing trip over the country in aration for this winter's tourna.
