BOWLING INDUSTRIAL LEAGUE Seattle Scrapper Gains verdict uver iew lone Veteran in Battle For Junior Lightweight Crown Dundee at Disadvantage. US' San Francisco, Oct. 20. (AP) Tod Morgan, of Seattle, continues to reign supreme In the vision of Junior lightweights. For a brief 30 minutes there last night, his authority was questioned, but before the battle had progressed far, the challenger, Johnny Dundee, of few Yorly, had been put to by a barrage of flying gloves that beat a steady tattoo on the face and body.

Coming out after the fourth round, Morgan drove the veteran New York boxer around the ring, landing seemingly at will both to the mid-section and the face. At the finish, there was no question as Referee Harry Ertle raised the champion's hand; The victor was tempered with th knowledge that Dundee fought through most of the bout with one hand. His handlers announced that an old break in. his HgTit hand had been fractured during the second round.

Menville, a quarterback, is being rated one of the best line plungers In Dixie. That's saying more than a little, considering Menville has had but little big-time experience. In Tulane's early season games the youngster has been one of the outstanding ground gainers on the team.

He may not be another Peggy Flournoy, 1925 sensation, but he's oft to a great, start, nevertheless. Menville is something of a triple-threat boy. For aside from his ability as a ball carrier, he can also punt and pass quite a drop kicker in the bargain, too. M'KECHNIEMAY JOIN AMERICAN Deposed Pirate Leader 1 MaV Land in lUniOr ClT- cuit Next Year Molar ity and Howley Also Considered. By JOIIX B.

FOSTER (Copyright, 1926, by the N.A.N.A.) New York, Oct. 20 Bill Me Kechnle, released as manager of the Pittsburgh Pirates, may be consoling himself today with the thought that there are two clubs in the American League which are uncertain as to their leadership in the 1927 baseball season. In fact, McKechnie's friends say there is a strong possibility tnat ne may be taken up by an American League club. McKechnie's was the second managerial head to fall, as was predicted over a fortnight ago George Sisler of the St. Louis Browns was the first.

The Pittsburgh manager, his friends declare, was made the "goat" of the Pirates failure to capture their second pennant In succession. Barney Dreyfuss, the Pittsburgh owner, had long ago made up his mind to drop McKechnie. When Dreyfuss returned from Europe. this Summer and heard the news of the Internal discord among the Pirates while he had been away. he was so upset that had it not been for a possible chance still remaining to win the pennant he would have fired McKechnie then and there.

Dreyfuss' Idea of discipline was that McKechiiie never should have permitted the players to take a vote on Fred Clarke, whose posl tion on the bench irritated some of the men. Dreyfuss was also greatly chagrined to find the Pirates wallowing in the mud, as he was sure he had a second championship team when he left for Germany. He has been inclined to place the burden of all the trouble on the shoulders of the manager, and not upon the fact that the team lacked high class players in the pitcher box. fans in Pitts burg and elsewhere will prob ably disagree with Dreyfuss on this point but that does not save McKechnie his job. MORIARITY OR HOWLEY A change of atmosphere is in the offing for the extremes of the American League.

St. Louis and Boston are the vulnerable points of the circuit. There will surely be a new manager in St. Louis and there is a strong, probability that the Red Sox will salute a new leader next season. Umpire Morlarity can have the Job if he wants and Dan Howley of Toronto can break into the major leagues if he wishes.

If Moriarity should umpire Instead of manage a team, Howley might go to "St. Louis and if Moriarity manages, Howley might go to Bos ton. As for Boston the eentlemen who furnish the funds for the op eration of the Red Sox are those who have weakened on the administration of Bob Quinn and Lee Fohl. Boston newspapermen have crit icised Quinn rather harshly. At least some of them have.

That has made it a little harder for the club to get along. However, criti cism doesn't cost anything and ball players do cost; and when ball players are taken on and the players produce nothing better than tail-end clubs, there comes a time when the stockholders yell. Both Quinn and Fohl have schemed and traded and when they got some players they most desired they hve failed to get any thing out of them. Players let go by them have done pretty well in other cities, and that has been held against them, although it is not always the fault of a president or manager that a Player will do better with some other club than his own.

SUSPEND WILLS FOR ONE MONTH Negro Boxer Who Lost to Sharkey by Foul is Sus pended by Commission Sharkey Challenges Tunney. flew York, Oct. 20. Whatever official or moral support remained with Harry Wills after his crush ing defeat at the hands of Jack Sharkey was snatched from under the big negro gladiator yesterday when the State Athletic Commis sion, majority championed the case of Wills, even to the extent of barring the fight here be tween Gene Tunney and Jack Dempsey, plastered a 30-day suspension on the tamed Brown Panther. The suspension was imposed at the meeting of the commission.

It was a routine matter, as is usually the case in all suspensions when they are Imposed for fouls. But this suspension of Wills was a jarring gesture in the direction of the man who patiently pursued heavyweight title match for seven long years. Wills received his money for the recent Ebbets Field bout collect ed It last week, when the commis sion ordered his pay check released. Nor will the suspension inter fere at all with Wills', career, if he intends to follow his announced plan and continuing boxing, for the negro heavyweight has no ring en gagements within the next 30 days, SHARKEY CHALLENGE FILED At the meeting at which Wills was suspended, his conqueror, Sharkey, was practically elevated to the position once held by 'the negro. On behalf of the Boston heavyweight.

Manager John Buck ley mailed a challenge- to Gene Tunney to battle for the heavy weight title. No action will or can be taken on the challenge Until March 23 next year when. the six months' period allowed champions to defend their titles, will have ex pired in Tunney's Sharkey's challenge, however, was placed on file, is recorded as the first aimed at Tunney- through the commis sion, and is assured serious consid eration at the proper time with the commission's announcement that all challenges will be placed on the file in order In which they are received.

SO (AP) -Returning regulars lightened the hearts of coaches as preparations for mldseason games gathered mo mentum today in the Eastern foot ball sector.

Jake Slagle. triple threat of the Princeton backfleld, is back in the Tiger fold, ready to flash his open field brilliance against Lehigh Saturday. Injuries -that required treatment by physicians at his home in Baltimore have menfed and the star is ready to shine again in the Bengal, backfleld, where all possible brilliance is needed to off set the handicap of a faltering line. Captain Johnny Davis, late lyof the hospital squad, was back at guard in the dummy scrimmage yesterday, and Ted Williams made his first appearance at quarterback since Injuries laid him low weeks ago. The return of Bill Webster to his line station after four weeks of en oread idleness balanced In the Tale forward wall, where a gap appeared due to the leg Injury of Ryan, regular tackle.

Scrimmage is the diet for the Ells today who have a shifty brown bear waiting to show his claws on Saturday.

Harvard and Dartmouth swapped workouts against each other's plays to be sure there would be no surprises on Saturday. A team of ineligible and substitutes has been drilling for the past two weeks to perfect the green flat passes and "hesitation" plays that mystified Harvard last year and almost defeated the Ells a week ago, could make no headway against the Crimson "Varsity.

20. (AP) Two regulations designed to speed up boxing contests yesterday were incorporated in the rules of the National Boxing Association here. One provides that the referee shall be present at the weighlng-in of boxers to avoid giving of lengthy Instructions later in the ring. The bther calls for the taping and gloving of boxers hands in their dressing rooms under the supervision of an inspector for the commission, thus avoiding such delay in. the ring.

The New Tork Boxing Commission, which is not a member of the national association, was criticized al Monday's meeting. The general sentiment of the commissioners was that the rulings of the Kew York body should be Ignored the same as rulings of the association are ignored by the New York com mission. Pennsylvania and Cali fornia besides New York are the only states where boxing is cor- ducted on any considerable aca.lar which are not members of the National Boxing Association.
