In at preliminary to the Kabby and Bandy bout, Riley was macerating into hash meat, Mr. Meyer Bender, when the Hebrew battler cut loose a low blow. Rilty displayed a straight punch and skill that vividly reminded fans of Joe Lynch. If you are good enough' to be compared to Lynch, you are a bird. That is what Riley is.

Mickev Donlev. Red" Kane. Attorney for Sox and Cubs Admits Offer of Position Is Contemplated. CHICAGO. Oct.

22. Judge Kenesaw M. Landls of.the Cnited States District Court here will be offered the chairmanship of the National Baseball Commission at a salary of per year, it was admitted here today by Alfred Austrian, attorney for both the Chicago American and Chicago National clubs. Austrian declared that the offer had not been made to Judge Landis, but other reports said the position had been tendered and accepted. This later rumor, however, cojild not be confirmed, "I will not deny." Austrian said, "that an offer is contemplated.

Judge Landis has been mentioned frequently as an ideal man for the place." Austrian's statement bears weight because of his position as attorney for leading baseball interests. Judge Landis. if the offer is made and accepted, would succeed Garry Herrmann, president of the Cincinnati club. Herrmann resigned several months ago and the position ha been vacant since then. It la regarded likely, however, that the offer will not be definitely made to Judge Landis until the dispute which threatens to result in a new alignment of major league clubs Is Kddie Keefe, Benny Valger.

22. Twenty-five veara ago, in the day of Dick A an Winkle, one of the greatest of the old-time southern stars. Centre College had a football team of winning ability and sectional renown. After a few years of glory Centre's fame passed on Into the shadows and for twenty years or more the Kentucky citadel was. hidden away in the fog of mediocrity.

And then, much after the manner of a ghost emerging from the gloom. Centre last season suddenly stepped forward again, coming into immediate prominence by beating West Virginia Just after that eleven, with the amazing Rodgers, had beaten Princeton, 25 to 0. Centre's brilliant record continued, but the climax of the drama doesn't come until tomorrow, when the Kentucky team swings into the, Harvard Stadium, where at least 25:000 football fans will at last see the widely advertised eleven In action against the coming Harvard team of more than average skill. The Big name. In the way of football drama this will be the big game of the Was Centre overrated last season or has Coach Moran one of those wonder teams that every now and then emerge from the shades to sweep the field? Of last year's winning eleven at least eight veterans are back, and this roster includes McMillin.

Roberts and Weaver, the three stars who helped to build most of Centre's fame. Good football judges say that in McMillin the east will see the best quarterback, of many years. And that Harvard will meet a hustling, hardworking machine that has faith in its ability to win. Just what effect playing in the stadium, with. Its big crowd and its tricky air currents, will have is hardly to be known in advance.

Quite a bit depends upon the break of luck in modern football and quite a bit tomorrow will depend upon who gets this break first. Mm mm i 1 S. I f' I have made in the past week. Dopesters Can Hardly Count Out North Grand Ayenue Combination This Season. BV J4MES M.

Central, MeKinley, Cleveland and Yeatman alreadv have shown well in the pie-limitary play and there is hardly a uueation that the race this season will be close mm the first whistle. Bight now Yeatman stems to have an txcHletit chance and the old pastime of counting the North Grand avenue boys out before the season tarts is no longer in order. Yentman wii4 la llky. A point in Yeaqnian'a favor is the geneial busklnees.of the squad.

In the game with Principia last weeK there was a get-together, work-together spirit instilled by Coach Kill, and this spirit is sure to be a' big help in the grinding grid toil of the days to tome. Tncie Is. perhaps, a slight tendency to slow up toward lh end of the game, but last Saturday, after Principia had scored, Yfitntn bunch snupped into it in tare style and the Page avenue people had no further chance. The Meatman backfleld Is veriiutire and many tt-ocl gains were made by end runs, intermingled with flashy forward passes.

"He is a fighter, not a powder puff artist. When he was around Jew York. Riley cared nothing about condition, but in any kind of a scrap he waa a fright. Leave the Boy Alone. "This fellow used to fight ten and twelve times a night around the social clubs in New York and Brooklyn.

Can you that? He would make the rounds and take on any one near his weight as long as he could get some change. "Some nights he would knock out five or six. Then he would sport around for the rest of th night. This fellow loves it and takes it Cor breakfast, dinner and supper. And Riiey may not be his right name but if 1 he boy's here to collect some easy money, 1 am net going to tell Just haj shanty he was born in.

"Kiley has always been on the level and he's licked some tough men. He's fast on his feet, he's clever, and 'he's tricky as the devil. i.Vnd when he gets an opening for that right hand, there's no cream puff In the glove when it comes across. It's. a wallop that he times beautifully ar.d perfect-) ly executes.

There is a kick in it a good kick." Lnknovtn to Sullivan. Tommy Sullivan does not know Just who Riley is and doesn't cura. Iiut Sir Tomassio says Riley's right hand is a dream and the nerve that will not yield is Riley's in gobs. "He came into town without a cent and I have given him a -chance" to make good." said Sir Thomas. "Riley has the earmarks of a comer.

He Is as hard as cider and looks like a boy that will take a lot of licking. I will tell you more about his ability arter he meets Macklin. Their bout will be a corker." Good evening, Mr. Riley! We hope you are- well! Rut. who the divil mi rah ye? National Baselall Commission, stated he did not care to forecast probable action when the post is fered him.

Kaiser Too Clever for Memphian South Side Bantam Scores Decisive Point Victory Over loung Jack Dempsey. i Boxing fans who were skeptical of I'eewee Kaiser ability to go eight rounds at top speed had their doubts dispelled ast night when tha flashy little bantamweight star went the full course with Morris Lazro. alias "Young Jack Dempsey." ot Memphis at the South Broadway A. C. Kaiser won the bout by a city block, though he did not appear to extend himself at onv time.

It evidently was the desire of the local midget to prove that he could ('go the full route that prevented him from putting the haymaker on the southerner. Kaiser rocked the visitor several times with right or left uppercuvs in the early rounds, uut refrained from taking advantage of the openings that were presented after landing these damaging blows. In the last round, peewee endeavored to cut loose, but Dernpsey resorted to tincanning, dancing and clinching tactics to star off tha sleep producer. The Memphian Is far from being the great battler advertised, although he displayed mark-d ability for a youth of his years and experience. The Memphis promoter who talked of sending him against Pal Moore must be balmy in the bean.

To send "Young Dempsey" against Moore right now would be as foolish aa pitting Kaiser against Kid Herman. Lynch or any other topnotcher of the 116-pound division. Loth boys have lot to learn and it will require at least two years of 'nursing and constant grooming for them to acquire the polish they need. Jolly Defeat Silver.

Heitzenroeder sent him a wire last night, and if Herring's terms are satisfactory he will very likely be sent against Rivers at the next South Broadway show. JOK LYNCH. GREB KAYOS SMITH- AFTER BLINDING HIM WITH PUNCH ON EYE SOUTH BEND.

Oct. 22. Gunboat Smith was not only knocked out ty Harry Greb of Pittsburg here last night, but it is thought likely tdday that he will lose the sight of one jeye also. Smith's eye was so badly damaged by a blow a few seconds before the knockout came that an eye specialist who was at the ringside declared that it is probable the sight of the eye was permanently destroyed. The fight lasted exactly two minutes.

Greb caught Smith with a left hook to the right eyeball that blinded him and followed this with a shower of punches that sent the "Gunner" down for the count.
