Parke H. Davis, of Easton, a former Princeton University guard, member of the Intercollegiate Rules Committee and now national footbal Istatistician for the Spalding Football Guide, was the principal speaker of the evening, and for the better part of an hour the distinguished Mr. Davis enraptured the gridiron warriors and invited guests with one interesting football ancedote after another.

(AP) A scoreless tie was the result of a football game here today between the squads of the Williams-port and Altoona high schools in which it was sought to decide the championship oi the central Pennsylvania Interscholastic football conference. Williamsport is the, title-holder in the eastern section and Altoona in the western.

The schoolboy elevens appeared evenly matched throughout the game, despite th-iatt that Williamsport had won earlier from the locals, 6 to 0. In a regular scheduleu fray.

Probably no football dinner speaker to appear In AUentown in recent years, and certainly none with a keener insight to the real groundwork of football, held his audience with such interest as did Mr. Davis last night. He told of his football experiences with two ex-presidents of the United States.

When he went to Princeton University in 1889 his coach there was Wood-row Wilson, later destined to be the chief executive of this nation. Six years later when he went to Amherst College to become football coach a long, lean gawky youngster came out to try for a varsity position. Asked his name, this gawky youngster answered simply: "Everybody here calls me 'Red'." Pressed by Coach Davis for his real name, the gawky youngster revealed that he was Calvin Cool-the Intercollegiate Rules Commitee and now national football statistician for the around the world a few years later as the president of the United States of NEW A.H.S.

Mr. Davis cited that four former college football guards were in the cabinet of the president of the United States during the administration of President Coojidge. and that at the present time there are no less than fourteen members of congress of the United States who are former college football captains. Adding to this he cited leading business men-wf the Cnited States who are former college football players, and said that the Lehigh Valley need go no further than Bethlehem, for here Arch Johnson, a former Lehigh University lineman, was vice president of the Bethlehem Steel Company, one of the world's mightiest corporations. Turning to the AUentown High school Players, Mr.

Davis paid the Canary and Blue warriors a great compliment when he said that there was no doubt in his mind but that they could win over twenty percent of the. college football teams in the country. He complimented Coach Crum on the splendid sportsmanship creed he has taught his proteges, and then referred to the AUentown High school band as one of the great school bands he ever had the pleasure to listen to Going back two thousand five hundred jears ago.

VON PORAT-SCOTT REM It BATTLE Heavyweights Clash Tomorrow Night in Madison Square Garden New York. Dec. 7. YAP) Phil Bcott. gangling fire laddie from London, and Otto Von Porat, studious Norwegian, travel to the leather wars Monday night with something more than just a fight In prospect.

For the loser there wiU be nothing but lumps and the chance to start all over again. For the winner a pleasant and lucrative winter looms. Someone must box Jack Sharkey, the one American port in the storm of foreign heavyweights crowding in on the vacant heavyweight throne, at Miami Beach next February and the winner of this twelve-round skirmish in Madison Square Garden Monday night probably will draw the assignment. If the bout ends in spectacular fashion, the Garden probably will look no further for Sharkey's mate in the second annual battle of the palms. An ordinary performance will force the winner to eliminate the victor of the Tuffy Griffith-Johnny Risko battle here later this season.

Despite Von Porat's power at a puncher and Scott's skill as a boxer, considerable of the interest in the affair centers on the third man in tha ring. Jack Dempsey, once the ace of all heavyweight clouters, has been granted a referee's license hre and has been named unofficially to handle the mai.i bout. Because of a state athletic commission law, the referee cannot be named officially until the boxers are in the ring. Since the injection of Dempsey into the affair, the demand for tickets has Increased steadily. The bout now is expected to draw close to $100,000 with at least half of that profit for charity, the Ciristmas fund, of which Mrs.

William R. Hearst is chairman. An attractive card supports the main bout. In the semi-final, Maxey Rosenbloom and Yale Okun, contenders for the vacant light heavyweight title, box twelve rounds. The first ten-rounder brings together Marty Gal- lagner, wasnington, u.

neavyweignt, ana George Hoffman, of New York, former amateur champion. GEORGElIlTS WIN RACE Italo-Belgian Team Wins International Bike Grind in Garden New York, Dec. 7.

OTHER' SPORTS ON PAGE FORTY 0NE PALM RII HIGH STRIBLING WINS ON FOUL FROM ITALIAN Camera Disqualified for Hitting After the Bell in Seventh Round By BAEON GEORGE WRASGtL Paris, Dec. 7. W. L. "Young" Btribling, pride of Macon, tonight came back to teach Italy's heavyweight hope, the gigantic Prima Camera, a lesson two In the gentle art of boxing.

Although Striblins took the scheduled fifteen round bout when Camera was disqualified for hitting after the bell had sounded the end of the seventh round, there was no doubt in anyone's mind th'. the 6turdy, craceful American had out-punched and out-scienccd the 280 pounas of muscle end beef that had entered the rins aeainst him. Ringside spectators and sports writers gave all but the third and fourth rounds to the Georgian. Beginning the bout in a whirlwind fashion he tore into the Italian giant, climaxing his ferocious attack in the sixth round, when a heavy right to Car-nera's Jaw sent him to the canvas for the count of two. Stribling made a gallant attempt to tr.ake tonight's return bout a fight.

Scarcely a month ago he lost to Camera on a foul in the fourth round of their fifteen round bout In Albert Hall. London. Tonight Camera was plainly stalling. It was Stribling who carried the burden of the offensive, jolting he Italian with Vicious rights to the head andXbattering his body in the clinches. When Camera came up for the seventh round he was Heeding at the nose, and his left eye was swollen badly.

At the tap of the bell. Stribling rushed from his corner. Camera, staggering to the center of the ring, fell into a clinch. Referee Bernstein vainly endeavored to pry him loose. During the melee the bell rang ana Car-nera, releasing his hold, struck the Georgian three times.

Maddened by the punishment he had suffered. Camera pulled six feet ten Inches of bull-like body together and rushed into Stribltng's corner before his seconds could lead him out of the ring. The crowd that packed the Velodrome was auick to register its approval of the referee's decision. As Camera left the ring he was followed by hisses. Stribling was loudly cheered.

(ftAt least twenty per cent of the spectators were Americans, and many women were present. Young Stribling completely outboxed the Italian in the flrst two rounds. He toyed with the giant, merely ducking his head or swaying to one side when Camera stepped out of one of his customary clinches for son.e real work. Stribling showed his stamina In weathering some rather severe punishment in the next two rounds. Once in the fourth Car-nera's left staggered him to the ropes.

Though hurt, Stribling fell into a clinch, hammering away at the giant's stomach. The fifth was much of a different story. Stribling seemed to have recovered himself. He danced about the awkward, slow-moving Camera, hitting him atr will. When Camera came up for the sixth round he was much the worse for wear.

There was an open gash under his left eye. and he showed no desire to mix thing's ud. The crowd hissed and booed at his clumsy attempts to stall and the general opinion Was that he had- no chance to carry the bout to a conclusion. His disqualification In the seventh leaves that an open Question.

The game was the last of the year for both elevens and was witnessed bs About 15,000 persons. Damon Runyon By DAMON RUNYON New Dec. 7. With Jack Dempsey as referee.

Phil Scott, heavyweight champion of England, and Otto Von Porat. of Norway, square away in Madison Square Garden tomorrow night in the most important heavyweight battle of the winter, and the indications now are that the big building on Eighth avenue will see its first sell-out of the season. As a companion piece to the Bcott-Von Porat fight of twelve rounds, Smacksie Maxie Rosenbloom, the Harlem Hurricane, and Julius Yale Okun, the pride of the lower East Side, tangle up in another twelve-rounder that is generally accepted as involving the light heavyweight tite, which was vacated by Tommy Loughran, of Philadelphia. Ed Stevenson, rich Chicago plumbing eon-tractor, who manages Otto Von Porat. has just arrived in New York, firm In his intention of claiming the empty heavyweight championship if Von Porat beats Scott, and Stevenson win post sou.ooo casn as a Dinaer to a challenge to the world, in tbe good old-fashioned way.

A forfeit of $50,000 cash is certain to receive some serious consideration, that is a sure thing. Meantime there will he sitting at the ringside Monday night four men who will be bidders for the services of the winner in hts next fight, for it happens that neither Von Porat nor Scott are tied up to any future contracts. Somehow in trying to corner the heavyweight market, the Madison Square Garden corporation overlooked the man who may be the key to the situation when tney start looKing lor an opponent ior the Terrible Sharkey Man. of Boston, and for Herr Max Schmellng. of Germany.

The latter is under contract to fight for Herman "Muggsy" Taylor and Bobby Gun-nlss. the Philadelphia promoters, in the great Convention hall in Atlantic City in February. It is rumored that Taylor and Gunnlss already have secret understandings with both Scott and Von Porat. and will match the winner of the bout Monday night with scnmenng. Prank Bruen.

general manager of Madison Square Garden, is hurrying back from Miami to see the fight, and to attempt to grab the winner for the 1929 battle of the beaches, with the Terrible Sharkey Man as his opponent. Kate Lewis, the bold eagle of the Boul' Mich', matchmaker for the Chicago stadium. and Leonard Sachs, representing tne utucago Coliseum, will be on hand seeking to land Scott or Von Porat for a fight with Tuffy Griffiths, in Chicago. Thus the winner of the Monday night struggle will find himself in a very soft' spot indeed. Not in many years or at least not since the start of the financial frenzy that has prevailed in fistiana since the late George Tex Rickard began pitching his million dollar shows has a heavyweight battle of the importance of the meeting between Scott and Von Porat been attempted at such a low scale of prices as this.

Misty and threatening over head, the playing field cleared of snow was earlier In the week in exceptionally good condition and a fast game resulted in which Beth lehem outplayed their opponent far more than the final numerals of 3 to 1 describe. Almost constantly were the homsters swarming the Pawtucket net and the visitors have to thank Findley Kerr, their aoalle. that goals were not nilpH im tn ereat- er proportion. When shots were directed at me net ne nanaiea in remarkable style ana wnen peaten ne was lavored when the Beth lehem forwards shot by or bounced their drive otf the cross-bar and uprights.

No less than four well labeled Bethlehem shots were deflected in their night by the cross oar or uprisnts. On the other hand the visitors seldom broke away and when they did were unable to penetrate the Steelmen's defence. In the first half Beveridge, Bethlehem's goalie handled hardly more than three shots while few more were handled after the restart. Pawtucket went into the lead in the first minute of play when Harvie converted a spot on a penalty called against Bob McGregor, Bethlehem's right halfback, for handling. This lead the visitors maintained for thirty minutes In spite of the vigorous attack of Bethlehem.

Finally this aggressiveness was rewarded when Purgavie broke away on the left wing and centered oeautiiuny, Massie swinging with a first time drive and scored from twenty yards out. Kerr was completely beaten on the shot and made no attempt whatever to save. Immediately on the klckofr Bethlehem again swept down the field. Reid shoved the ball across the Massie and again with nrst time snot ne drove a rme snot wen out of reach of Kerr. The score remained 2 to 1 in Bethlehem's favor at half time.

Owing to the heavy mist and with dark ness threatening the teams agreed to resume playing without taking the customary rest interval. Bethlehem's superiority after the restart was eouallv as nronounced as earlier in the game and the visitors goal was almost constantly under a siege of bombardment. Tommy Gillespie, displaying de termined aggressive throuehout the came. finally notched the goal he was striving for wnen on a solo enort he went down the center, drew Kerr out of his goal and then deftly tapped the ball around the visitors custodian for the final score.

The crowd of 17,000 that basked in the glaring sunlight had btrely quieted their clamor over Crabtree's feat when Ed Sauls, Gator halfback, thrust his way through tne Oregon line lor 38 yards and another counter. Red McEwen. another halfback, accounted for the third Florida score in the third period when he skirted right end for the ten yard distance to the Oregon goal.

The Oregon team, generaly jerseyless in the last half because of the heat, was outclassed during the first half, but took a brace in the latter part of the third quarter that ended with their one touchdown four minutes before the game ended. Ths score came on a 40 yard pass. Shearer to Walter Brown. The game was developed around straight football in almost every instance, with but one forward pass completed despite nine attempts by Oregon and one by Florida. The Oregon aggregation's 10-day campaign of acclimation to senn-tropic conditions, proved unsuccessful, and the webfoots were unable to swing Into form until a cool breeze relieved them late in the game.

ALONG VERT NICELY Nazareth Light Heavyweight in Three Years Has Made Fine Progress Somewhat over three years ago, a huskily built, fine looking youth whose every move showed him to be a trained athlete, walked and hitch-hiked to AUentown from his home in Nazareth, to secure advice on how to launch a fistic career. Now love of the game, the natural ability that Is his and diligent conditioning' for battle has brought this same lad, Sam Weiss, of Nazareth, to a point where he was rated as the best light heavyweight of the month of November by "The Ring." the national boxing publication which each month ranks the leading boxers of that period on their performances aays. auring tne previous thirty With this rating which sets Weiss in a select class among the 175-pounders. king-less since the abdication of Tommy Lough-ran the Nazareth boxer has taken an imperfect step forward in his pugilistic life but the greatest opportunity of his career will be presented him on December 19, in the Manhattan auditorium, when Weiss will fight K. O.

Phil of New York, rated as one of the leaders of the division for the past two years. For a little better than a year Weiss Jias forged to the front with a rapidity that has astounded even his most ardent admirers and this improvement now constitutes him as a real threat for any light-heavyweight in the game. The change in Weiss as he became a deadly puncher with both hands, instead of iust a left-hooker, a nunch to which be came naturally as he is a southpaw turned srouna to a more ormoaox style, was largely responsible for his success in the past year which saw him ranked high by the ring last month. It was in this section that some of the freatest battles of the new Weiss were ought and for this reason the coming test, with Kaplan, is being watched for and awaited eagerly by the fight fans who have begun to follow the fistic fortunes of the Nazarene. Jack "Kid" Wolf, whom Joe Smith, manager of Tommy Loughran, was grooming for the light heavyweight throne which Smith lealized Loughran must give up because of weight difficulties, was pitted against Weiss and much to the surprise of everyone, including Smith who was in Wolfe's corner, the protege of Loughran and Smith was soundly thumped.

Frankie Driscoll and his promotorial partner, Edear Aibus, believe this to be the greatest show they have promoted this year and to support the Weiss-Kaplan setto are now arranging a fitting undercard.

The teams were picked of seniors from many New England colleges. Rambles Along vet.d1eVthat h0 his best against H.5SiJ,-Ctmpol?.5 that mark, and has been devoting himself to shedding some flesh. On the other hand, Von Porat, a string beai ne started boxing, has beep trying to build up to get more heft back his murderous punch. Emacksio Max.e Rosenbloom and!

If not Indeed the favorite, tor P'enty of money for him cominv: i52L.c!,lca5 he he has made his most impressive battles.

Out there they don t. rti.lM"5' can Jive nacr Otto's smites. Otto hlmsf-lf is confident that he will knock over the Englishman In short order. Scott stands quite erect while boxing. That type Is made to order for Otto's drop-riht hand.

Otto doesn't throw that right from any distance. He lust lets is fall. In Chicago recently, otto belted ou; Smith, of England, with such rapidity that many of the ringworms thought Charles took the, well known tank. Thev didn know Charles. It was his first appearance In Chicago.

This same Charley Smith showed In Madison Square Garden against Paul Cavalier before going to Chicago, and disclosed himself as about as neat a boxer as anyone would care to see. Cavalier is a shifty fellow himself, and knows his business thoroughly, but Smith knocked him down In an earlv round, and Paul had to come from far behind to snatch a decision. Even then some of the ringworms thought he should have had a draw. Off this fight, base my prediction that-Von Porat will flatten Scott. Smith is as fast, and almost as good a boxer as Bcott and if Von Porat can clip him as speedily as he did, I see no reason why Voa Porat shouldn't clip Scott Just as speedily.

My prediction is tinctured only with th very slUrhtest doubt. I must confess I never saw Von Porat catching "em from a right good pitcher. Still, old Meyer Christ net called "Knockout," benged Otto's long ehin aulte severely in their battle on the fund card, and Otto remained upright to al most massacre the ex-rubber worker from Akron. No one else has stopped Myer. one else has given him such a sound pounding.

Also I saw Otto get nn ofT the floor with Paolino and come on to have the ficezari; of the Basque very dizy in the round. I saw Otto stand up with Napoleon Jack Dorval one night In Chicago and exchange blast for blast for ten rounds. So I tiidge Otto takes 'em very good, indeed They are ckay when they get up off tbe As" far as that goes. Phil Ecott seem take 'em fairly Weil, though he has been called on to take 'em from such a give" as Von Porat. who is apt to knock a euv out Just hitting him on the head.

I think this Is going to he a tremendou'-battle for a few rounds, anyway. Maybe good a heavyweight battle as we have sei. around here in years, for torc r'i fiKlitiJis." for a crack at a furtunr. PIRATES BUY COAS LEAGUE FIRST SACKER JOE LIPOVSKY Joe Lipovsky, AUentown High school halfback of last season, last night was elected to lead the Canary and Blue gridmen orf the gridiron next season. The election of Lipovsky came at the annual banquet of the gridmen held at the Americus Hotel, and came as something of a surprise, since Lipovsky was considered a darn, norse entry.

Joe, a Junior, was the selection of his mates by a narrow margin over Marwood the classy lineman. Altho no figures were announced, it was reported afterwards that of the twenty-one players casting their ballots, eleven voted for Lipovsky and ten for Stark. With Lipovsky having majority, the vote was made unanimous. Lipovsky was one of the regular back-field men until he injured his back in the game with Tamaqua High at Ta-maqua, and was compelled to sit on the sidelines for the balance of the season. While in the game, he was a consistent ground gainer, a fighter all of the time, and should make an Ideal leader for AUentown High next season.

As a result Iowa will be severed from athletic relations with otner conference teams after January 1, 1930. The Hawkeyes made their final effort to get back into the conference at the meeting of the faculty committee, which began deliberation of Iowa's plea at a storm session opening last night. After a seyen-hour discussion, the committee adjourned to go into session again this morning. The official statement of the faculty committee said that "while we are definitely of the opinion that Iowa has made earnest and definite steps to correct the evils which led to the May action, we are nevertheless of the opinion that there are steps remaining to be taken. Now, therefore, be it resolved, that the petition of the State University of Iowa for the present be denied." The official statement explained further: "It is to be observed that the adoption of this resolution does not mean that Iowa ceases to be a member of the conference January 1, 1930.

Nor does it mean that Iowa is then suspended, the action means hat the resolution of May, 1929. under Teneral regulation 7 of the conference, everimr athletic relations with Iowa, effec- ive January 1, 1930, becomes operative on that date.
