laid out to boom cricket at the University of Pennsylvania next year the big feature of the season to be the sending of a team to England patterning the trip on the style of the many successful ventures carried out by the Haver ford college eleven With this object in view et committee is making an earnest plea among the cricketing'' alumni for financial aid In promoting inter est in the sport and furthering the reputation of the University of Pennsylvania abroad The committee backs its request with strong arguments showing how cricket stands by itself as a purely amateur sport therefore worthy of financial assistance from the outside for the carrying 'put of such a project as that contemplated They argue that the cricket team has no' training house no rubbers sur geons or professional trainers and no gate money being In short a and not a The proposed tour in England in 1907 would include twelve to four teen two day games' and besides meeting the stronger schools such as Eton' Harrow Cheltenham Winchester it is hoped to conclude the trip with games against the two university teams Oxford and Cam bridge All of this year's team will return to college in the fall and the eleven will be further strengthened by some three or four excellent play ers who enter college this year Seven of the team have already played against the English teams upon the Philadelphia Colts The team is therefore one of consider able experience and should'make a good record for itself lei Steiger pDeneau Rskrl M'Did2 Viv'nsm4 Allen Booth lp leiger3 ipinn 5 99 Minot 92 Salvisa 98 De Oro 1

cial) Siler was finally kind definite ly accepted as referee by Gans' and Sullivan his manager this after noon The Goldfield club has prom ised that Siler will have to give ab solute assurance that he feels him self to judge the con test impartially regardless of his friendship for Sullivan's statement of the agree ment is: have insisted that Air Siler be informed immediately on his arrival in Goldfield that an impression prevails that lie is not the proper person' to referee the contest be cause of liis known friendship for Nelson The club has agreed that Siler be sb informed and promise that Siler shall show to the satis faction of the club that he is the right man for referee Gans is willing to tight under such an as surance because if any partiality is shown the public can more fittingly judge for With Gans's positive assurance this afternoon that he will tight un der Siler without further demur the referee question is doubtless finally settled Another row is cer tain though over a flaw which Sullivan has discovered in the articles of agreement These read that the fight be at 3 o'clock" But the clause relating to weigh ing in state that both parties hail weigh in for the third time at 3 ocloek Sullivan and Gans raise the point that it is an impossibility to do both at the same time Gans says he will either fight at 3 o'clock' without weighing in or according to the agreement weigh in at 3 and fight afterwards Sul livan has plainly caught Nolan ant the' club with their eyes shut on this point and it is certain that Gans will make the most of it Neither Rickard nor Nolan can claim forfeit if he delays the fight under such contradictory Articles and unless the three come to some mutual agreement over the matter trouble may ensue at the ringside It is likely that 3 o'clock will be agreed upon for the starting of the fight however for Sullivan declares his willingness to meet Nolan half way on the matter Bathers Lose to Indians Mt Clemens Mich August

enthusiastic over the new rules and declares lie has found by experience that they will work in fine style lie takes Issue with Coach statement that the side with the ball will be handi capped in comparison with previous years course the new yules will give smaller men a chance to break saidi Coach Stagg the big ones will stay when they arc reasonably fast I do not believe line plugging will

they used to because of the other provisions which have been made to offset the longer distance to be gained defense will be the big prob lem A shifting defense which is always the best will have to be used largely 1 am working on that and have as yet formed nothing The maroon regulars meanwhile are getting ready to go to work on their own' hook Every one of them is to keep in training during
