Yale, Winslow M. Lovejoy TUNNEY READY 0 MEET ANY GOOD FIGHTER By FAIR PLAT. Copyright. ItiS. Special to The Ithara JovmdLWeut.

New York, Dec. 15 Gene Tunney's hands survived the bout with Harry Greb in good stle and the American cruiser champion is ready for future bouts. Just who he will meet i3 a auestion. If Mike McTigue could be induced to forget his grievances against his manager, Joe Jacobs, a battle for the world's title will be possible and the chances are. Tunney would win it handily.

Tunney has no appearance of a world beater but he certainly should be able to beat McTigue. With McTigue refusing to do battle, though, it is difficult to select anopponent for Tunney. Tunney Gibbons is a light heavyweight at least lie could train to that weight but nobody puts Tunney in his class and as a consequence the fight would not be attractive. Jeff Smith can and does fight in that class occasionally but his style is not admired in this section and the chances are he and Tunney would not prove to be drawing cards. If Carpentier comes here it is possible he might be set against Tunney as a curtain raiser to a fight against Gibbons or Siki.

This In fact appears to be about the only lucrative bout to which Tunney could look forward unless he is willing to meet Greb again. The battle these two men put up "Monday night was an exciting setto Unusually good boxing and wrestling matches featured the annual Cornell novice meet held last night at the Old Armory. All of the bouts were closely contested and some good varsity material was revealed during the evening. The summaries follow: Boxing. 'in the 115 pound class, Sack defeated Lee in one, of the best bouts of the evening.

Both boxers fought hard but clever boxing combined with heavy hitting won the decision for Sack. In a bout replete with thrills Wil liams was returned victor in the 125 pound class over Pecheur. In the 135 pound decision, Van Sickle defeated Patterson in a fast bout. For two rounds the two men battled on even terms, trading punch for, puuch, but in the fnal round Van Sickle used a punishing left jab to good advantage and gained the decision. Williams of the 145-pound class overcame Broder in an old-fashioned slug fest.

One of the surprises was furnished in the bout in the 158-pound division between Hamilton and Nelson. In the last round Hamilton came back strongly and gained the decision. As usual, the heavyweight match attracted most of the attention from the spectators. In the 175-pound class Otto gained the title from Evjen. Wrestling.

Keith and Snyder in the 115-pound division battled until ten seconds be fore the time limit, when Keith fi nally gained a fall by a body hold. The time advantage was with the winner during this match. Plotkin's fall over Sirnrell In the 125-pound group was obtained' in seven hinutes and five the half-Nelson and armlock that he had gotten proved successful. Muller's time advantage of five minutes and seconds was too much for Chapin. who succeeded in rolling over on Muller towards the end of the bout.

The match was fought in the 135-pouncI class. In the Quinby-Schoeder contest in the 145-pound class neither man could get to the mat, until Quinby, by a sudden twist with the body hold threw Schoeder and turned him on his back.The fall was obtained in three minutes and ten seconds. Two extra three minute periods and no doubt the fans would tin nut to see them renew their grudge. iaiK or a lunney-Siki bout has been heard but it is doubtful if the champion would be permitted to meet the senegalese scrapper. Lnder the surface there is as much objection here to mixed bouts as in Pennsylvania only in that state they have had the nerve to come out in the open and put on the ban.

Cornell-Penn Rivalry Will Carried To Pacific Coast Teams By WALTEK CAMP. Copyright. Ills. Special to Tho Ithaca New Y'ork, Dec. 15 With the passing of Glenn Warner from Pittsburgh to Leland Stanford University, one of the most successful veteran football coaches of the East is thrown out to tin Pacific coast section.

It also brings Warner, a Cornell man in direct opposition to Andy Smith, a Penn man who has wrought such wonders at the University of California. Warner's coming will arouse a new hope at Stanford where, for too many their teams have gone up against great almost insuperable odds. He comes at a time when Stanford's material looks far more promising than of late years and when California's super-men have graduated. Altogether this new rivalry will add immensely to the interest in football on the coast. Other Sport News Page 9 PATENTS PROTECT YOUR INVENTION Write for FKEE Illustrated I'atcnt Boo!

WASHINGTON, C. vo rvMV Vt HEMS AH AMrr, 1 0 i i and knows all the tricks of the trade. McRae of Syracuse i3 a perfect end in all the requirements of the position an inspiring leader and a reliable man In every department. Sundstrom's great value in addition to playing every phase of his position to the hilt was his slashing ability in interference and his qualifications as a drop and placement kicker. Millstead of Yale, fast, a giant in strength and dependable not only in the requirements of his position but a very inspiration and tonic to the entire line cannot be left out.

Slaughter of Michigan and Hubbard of Harvard were guards, of similar type, men who broke, through sharply and did a lot of ranging, strong, enduring and knowing. Pfann of Cornell, the mainspring of the mechanically perfect and powerful Cornell attack, was not only a physical marvel on the gridiron but a field general of rare strategical mind and unvarying poise. Grange of Illinois was one of those running geniuses that occasionally flash forth on the gridiron, calling to mind memories of Eddie Mahan and other elusive and versatile ball carriers. Kipke of Michigan, while lacking somewhat in his 1922 power and drive, still had enough left to cause him to stand at the head and his kicking ability has stood by itself. Layden of Notre Dame is the most versatile backfield man playing the game today.

He can do anything with a football that any back ever did and not a thing does he fail to do well. Elmer Layden is one of the fullbacks of all time. But other backs have abounded. Don Miller of Notre Dame and Stuhldreher, the quarterback, as well as Crowley, all of Notre Dame, were extremely brilliant. Martineau of Wisconsin was, in a class with the best and Tryon of Colgate, Wilson of Penn State, Groves of Maryland, Bowman of Syracuse, Noble of Nebraska, Zimmerman of Syracuse, Mal-lory of Yale, Neale of Yale and Neid-linger of Yale, Britton of Illinois, Nevers of -Washington, would all be entitled to membership upon All-America elevens in years when the competition was not so keen.

As to great ends they have not abounded. Stout of Princeton is in" the All-America class and Handruk of Iowa, Luman of Yale, and Stephens of Pennsylvania were very good. Of tackles' Kriz of Iowa and Gowdy of Chicago rank among the best. Guards of high merit were not numerous, McMillen of Illinois, however, rating in the stellar category. As to the rating of the various elevens: East Y'ale.

Middle West Illinois and Michigan. South Vanderbilt and Washington and Lee. Pacific Slope California. Y'ale receives preference over Cornell because the teams she defeated as compared to those defeated by Cornell entitle Yale to the position. Some such criticism may be applied to Michigan in favor of Illinois, but the discrepancy was not really great.

California on the Pacific slope had more real opposition than in several years past, but she is clearly entitled to a position at the very top, despite a mid-season tie with Nevada. Niagara Grid Team Scheduled to Meet Cornell October 4 Niagara Falls, N.Y., Dec. 13 Niagara University's football schedule for next fall, announced by Head Coach Pete Dwyer, is the hardest in the institution's history. Niagara is scheduled to meet Gil Dobie's Cornell eleven at Ithaca on October 4 and will face Syracuse on November 15. The schedule follows: September 27, Rochester at Rochester; October 4, Cornell at Ithaca; October 11, Duquesne at Pittsburgh at 'Niagara Falls; October IS, Ilobart at Geneva; October 25, Alfred at Niagara Falls; November 4, Canis-ius at Buffalo; November 15, Syracuse at Syracuse; November 27, St.

Football was never better played than in the season of 1923 just con- eluded. No year has seen a greater number of players in various positions whose merits were so well balanced and not within the writer's memory have there been so many evenly matched teams. Proof as to this is to be found in the fact that of ail the elevens in the country! which have attained national or sectional significance in the course of recent years only Yale and Cornell have neither been defeated nor tied in the East and West of the Alleghanles, only Illinois and Michigan. California lost no game but was tied by Nevada. All this being the case the selection of an Ail-American eleven is rendered extremely difficult and by no possibility can any team that anyone selects escape criticism on the part of adherents of one great player or another.

At least the writer can say that the men here selected hav2 come under his personal observation with one exception and thus the hypothetical outfit avoids the reproach that attaches to combinations erected upon hearsay. And neither is there any chance that the most captious critic will be in a position to dismiss the eleven as weak in any of its parts, or as a whole. Here it is: First Team. Ecklund Minnesota Left end McRae- Syracuse Right end Sundstrom Cornell Left tackle Millstead-rYale Right tackle Slaughter Michigan Left guard Hubbard Harvard Right guard Horrell California Center Pfann Cornell Quarterback Grange Illinois Halfback Kipke Michigan Halfback Layden Notre Dame Fullback Second Team. Bokesek Illinois Left end Supplee Maryland Right end Below Wisconsin Left tackle Muirhead Michigan Right tackle Colgate' Left guard scenbach Dartmouth guard Lovejoy Yale Center L'teritz Michigan Quarterback Miller Notre Dame Halfback Stevens Yale Halfback Taft Wisconsin Fullback As to the first eleven, discussion might well take up first of all the center of the line where Horrell of California is located.

Enthusiasts, other than those on the Pacific Coast, have not had an opportunity of viewing this pivot man in action but from sources for whom the writer has the highest respect comes word that offensively and defensively this man is raging lion. No back ever gained tnrougn nis position ana at an times nt; wits Liivtirviug unuugu, ui riijs jpums, tnrowing runners lur suitaies md smearing plays betore they started, lie was a ranger, sure anu certain, in his tackling and a fine Right in his class, however, are Lovejoy of Yale, Bedenk of Penn State, Garbisch of the Army, King of Chicago and Blott of Michigan. Ecklund of Minnesota is fast down-field, a deadly tackier and a reliable man in defending against the forward pass and receiving it. He is a veteran SHUGRUEWINS DECISION OVER SOUTH AMERICAN New York, Dec. 13 South America's latest pugilistic threat was checked but not eliminated last night when Luis Vicentini, Chilean lightweight, met defeat at the hands of Johnny Shugrue of Waieiinuy.

Conn. While it was a disappointing setback to followers of the Chilean, who had knocked out three American opponents in a row. it also was a spectacular comeback for Shugrue has been inactive for most of the past year. Vicentini's defeat was laid by experts chiefly to over anxiety to maintain his knockout record and insufficient skill with which to follow up many of his advantages. Shugrue's clever defensive work, his aggressiveness from start to finish and ability to sounter most of attacks also figured in giving him victory.

Shugrue held the upper hand for the first half of the fight, but Vicentini staggered the American with a vicious drive i'n the seventh. Shugrue. bleeding from nose and mouth, was on the verge of a knockout but managed to weather the storm. Critics agreed that Vicentini shows unusual fighting promise. He is well equipped both defensively and offensively and his chief handicap now is of experience.

The South American demonstrated that he Is a powerful hitter, shifty and able to stand up nnder punishment. Irish Johnny Curtin, Jersey City bantam won on a foul in the fifth round of a 12-round match with Joe Ryder of Brooklyn, on the same card. Ryder Mas disqualified for hitting low after he had gained a wide margin over Curtin on points.
