The odds are on Bethlehem to win The latest story is that Coal Township has boosted its price to $4,000 to land Coach John Butler, of Bethlehem High. Monk Meyer, of Army fame, has quit Allentown Pros, to return to Army duty. A new survey has been made in Allentown towards getting a new park for Eastern League ball for 1939. It will be located near the Bethlehem city line. It will be another Triple Cities.

And Easton, Bethlehem and Allentown offer an inducement. Kulpmont can even win with a crippled team. The Terry-men beat Danville High last night, 19-0. Thi3 is one year when Fordham will have to sweat to tie that Pitt Panther. Jack Reno has not been seen since the last wrestling card.

And it looks like another fold-up in Hazleton. But this is not uncommon. Oh for another Bob Peters to promote real shows here. Maybe the amateur game under the able direction of Ralph Ferdinand, will revive the boxing game here, Al Kull, ace of the Shenandoah team is the latest to go on the bracket with injuries. Hazleton On The Limb.

Coaches create their own destiny. When Stan Oleniczak took over George Shotwell's job at Hazleton High this fall, fans wondered whether or not the Mountaineers would keep pace with the step set by the rangy George during the past two seasons. Well, the record answers that. Stan has gone ahead and given to the Mountain City a brand of football that has been so startling that it has the entire community by the throat. It is the first year of Hazleton's place in the newly-created "Big Fifteen," a rather exclusive set of schools that even snobs at the idea of playing for the state title but the Mountaineers are right in line to bid for the championship of this super-setup of high schools in the very first year.

Whether or not Hazleton will be successful, only time can tell. But all must agree" that Oleniczak and Shaw, and the entire band of Mountaineers as well, are facing the three hardest hurdles of the season in Bethlehem, Shamokin and in Pottsville. If we beat all three, it will be a trophy well earned. In the meantime, Freeland High is here, and dreams of an undefeated season must oft-times, include the listing of the supposedly lesser games. Kick John AI Oslislo.

When the Reading Rams meet the Hazleton Redskins at Cranberry Park Sunday afternoon in a fight for tho Eastern League leadership, the two visitors shown, above will play important roles. John, who played with the undefeated Princeton University team of 1933, coaches the squad in addition to playing a guard position, while Oslislo is used at either center or fullback. Coach John is the team's place kicker and his "educated toe" has won three games for the Rams this season. Eastern League football interest rill be centered on the outcome of the Reading-Hazleton game at Cranberry Stadium tomorrow afternoon, when the tied leaders will endeavor to break the deadlock, and the concensus of opinion is that the winner will ultimately be crowned as league champion. This, the first meeting between the two clubs, finds the rivals well drilled for a gruelling battle, and it terms certain that pro ball will be in great demand after the fans see these two teams in action on Sunday.

Popular Prices Will Help Moreover, the revision of the admission prices is a stimulator to the game that will aid in bringing out a real Sunday base ball crowd to see tomorrow's matinee. The adult prices have been slashed to 55 cents and juveniles to 25 cents, a move that will not only prove popular, but profitable as well. Princeton Ace Paces Reading The Reading gquad will be pace! by Jack White, who won his col-Jegiate spurs as a member of Fritz Crwler's Princeton Tigers and who leads a passing attack that is very hard to fathom. Hazleton fans who have wanted to see Kahn, Erickson, 'Abbott, Spirida, Campbell, Pagnano, Soroko, Surgent and others forced to their very best, will have their appetites whetted tomorrow at 2:30, when the kickoff of a rousing battle will be staged. Reading Has Tremendous Power Seated in the heart of a collegiate territory of Pennsylvania, the Reading club has a wealth of ex-collegiate material, and not only does the team flash such boys as Jack White, E.

Cammarata, 205-pound tackle, Jack Muller and Tony Troisi, but it has a number of other stars of a few seasons ago on the college gridiron of the east. Hazleton Has Local Color Too Of course, Reading owes it3 tremendous popularity to its ex-collegiate from the home neighborhood, and in this respect, the Mountaineers are not trailing either. With the Castura boys, Feiry, Roman, Widzbor, Uhrin, and Curry, there is plenty of local color to create region-wide interest here.

(16); Pognana, L. T. (26); Kahn, L. G. (18); Erickson, C.

Pitt Panthers After 21st Game PITTSBURGH, Oct 21. (JP) Pitt's proud Panthers, undefeated in their last 20 games, dug in tonight for an air raid expected tomorrow afternoon from Southern Methodist's Mustangs. The national champions have promised a few passes of their own for the 25,000 fans likely to watch Pitt's first tussle with a representative of the Southwest Conference and both teams included passing drills in their final workouts. Coach Matty Bell, who pointed his squad for this game by personally scouting the Panthers two weeks ago against Duquesne and leaving last week end open in his schedule, I reported his players in good shape.

"Well we're here," he exclaimed st. LMoey uas House bang was rough riding its way to world' championships, but this was their first time in vaudeville. Now the "Gashouse Gang" has to call on Collins who played first base for the Chicago Cubs, (remember them?) they finished second to the Yankees in the World Series.) to be their straight man. When the Mudcats trouped back to their dressing room after their first show this afternoon, they were perspiring more than after a midsummer double-header in St. Louis.

"Boy, that's were the first words of the "Wild Horse of the Osage." "In baseball you know when you're doing all right," he said. "When you make a hit, you know you've done the right thing, but out there on that stage, you never know." To entertain the customers, Pepper and his gang play a few tunes on everything from a "git-tar" to a washboard, sir.g some songs and then they talk a little baseball but very little. "1 don't think I'll ever get used to this," was Pepper's comment. An old trouper, sitting over in a corner, offered them a bit of vaude ville wisdom. "The folks out there are paving to see you boys," he said.

"They don't care whether you're actors or not." But that doesn't suit the Mudcats, they're interested in their act. PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 21. (JPyl Pennsylvania and Columbia, each trying to rebound from a surprise defeat last week, clash tomorrow at Franklin Field in the 23rd renewal of a football series started in 1878. A crowd of more than 50,000 is expected to watch Sid Luckman, Columbia's famed forward passer, attempt to come back after being stopped by Colgate last week.

Frank Reagan, Penn's star sophomore quarterback, held in check by Princeton last Saturday, will also be trying to come back. Dnflwr-fa Along Sport Lame Michigan Favored Over Yale a3 he led the Methodists into town early today. "We're not promising to beat the best team in the country, but we'll give it the old college try. Win lose or draw Pitt will know it was in a ball game. Can I promise any more?" Sutherland pointed out the risk his Golikn Panthers faced by saying, "one pass can offset a 90-yard power march, so you see what a strain we're under in playing our first game against one of those wonder passing teams from the southwest." Then he sighed in recollection of the last time an opponent laid off competition the week before meeting Pitt.

That was Minnesota in 1934 and the Gophers won 13 to 7. The Y. M. H. A.

Bowling League has reorganized for the season, with six teams, comprised of six men each. The league will open its season on Sunday afternoon, at 1:15 o'clock, when the two of the teams will compete. The- other four will bowl on Monday evening, at 9 o'clock. The seasonal schedule has been arranged for two teams to bowl each other Sunday afternoon, and the remaining four to meet Monday nights. FOUR-LETTER MAN NEW ORLEANS, Oct.

21. (JP) Claude Eimons, assistant football coach at Tulane, was the third athlete in the sports' history of Tulane to earn four varsity event letters. He graduated in 1934. America's scheduled air lines daily fly a distance equivalent to about times around the world at the Equator. University, Pittsburgh, was last night signed to aid Eddie Wassil in coaching the Drifton Wildcat' football team.

Horn was signed by Manager Emmett Thomas upon advice of Coach Wassil, who felt that a line coach would be an invaluable asset to the Drifton team. park. Meet Hazleton All-Stars It was decided that iuch a session would be a good prelude to the game which the Wildcats will play with Al Marianos' Hazleton All-Stars at Drifton park on Sunday afternoon at 2:30. Lineups of neither team wer available last night. Many new men, however, including "Farmer" O'Don-nell, Jimmy Sharkey, "Bubs" Ferdinand, Biilie Marchetti, Joe Kid-liish, Tim Quigley, Bill Horn, Ber- ni Sasko, George Kimyak, "Dinty Hughes, "Shorty" Yeaco and a host of others will make their debut with Drifton.

MISSISSIPPI SUBS BEAT DUQUESNE PITTSBURGH, Oct. 21 UP) Two sophomore substitutes, Harvey Johnson and Frank Chambers, galloped to glory tonight in a pair of spectacular 80-yard drives which gave Mississippi State a 12 to 7 triumph over Duquesne. Midway in the iecond half when the Maroons' long trek northward seemed doomed to disaster, the two youngsters set off their fireworka to the amazement of a crowd cf chilled fans and avenged a double defeat the Dukes administered in 1937. Johnson scored first on a 39-yard run to climax an 8ft.yard thrust late in the third period and Chambers rushed 22 yards after a similar 80 yard campaign early in the final chapter. The Dukes, who muzzled the Bulldogs 13 to 12 in the 1937 Orange Bowl game at Miami and followed it up last fall with a 9 to 0 victory at State College, romped ont in front tonight with a touchdown in the second period.

After a scoreless first period in which the Dukes seemed to have a slight advantage in the rushing, Angelo Onder and Mitchell Barron negotiated a 47-yard trip to pay territory with Barron going fivi yards through left tackle to score. dead on i mm PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 21. (JP)--A fighting Temple eleven that refused to be beaten came surging back in a thrilling fourth period rally tonight to tie undefeated Boston College, 26-26, before a crowd of 15,000 that yelled itself hoarse. Behind, 26-19, when the visitors shoved over their fourth touchdown with less than three minutes to play, Temple's Al Juralewicz ran back the succeeding kickoff 50 yards to the Owls' 48v On the first play, Clem Stevens heaved a long 52-yard aerial to James Powers over the Boston goal to make it 26-25.

Stevens then booted the tying point from placement to climax a dramatic see-saw game replete with long runs and forward passes. Even the usually calm Glenn "Pop" Warner, Temple's coach, let out a cheer as Stevens' kick went between the crossbars. Temple, which piled up 13 first downs to eight, -scored first early in the second quarter when Al Nichols went over from the Boston one, ending an 80-yard march. The visitors came right back with two touchdowns to take a 13-6 lead at the half. Fella Gintoff heaved a 34-yard pass to Richard Harrison for the first Boston touchdown and a few minutes later, tossed a nine-yard aerial to Dave White for the second score.

Temple marched 68 yards in the third period to tie the score, with George Honochick going over from the one. Boston promptly regained the lead, however, staging a sustained 73-yard drive with Charlie O'Rourke passing 23 yards to Vito Ananis for the score. Juralewicz sparked Temple in a 70-yard drive for the Owls' third touchdown early in the last quarter with Honochick plunging over on a short line buck. Goodreault blocked Stevens' try for the extra point to keep Boston ahead at 20-19. It was Honochick's second touchdown.

When Horsfall, Boston's sub back, ran back one of Stevens' punt 65 yards to the Temple one and Zabil-ski went over for another touch down, Temple's followers virtually gave up. Then came Juralewicz's long run and Stevens' long forward to Powers. NEW HAVEN, Oct. 21 (JP) Michigan's heavy, powerful football team was a strong favorite to stop Yale here tomorrow when they resume gridiron relations after a lapse of 55 years. More than 45,000 fans, several thousand from the midwest, were expected to more than half fill the bowl for the intersec-tional scrap.

Despite the Wolverines splendid performance against Minnesota's powerhouse last week, the Yale camp was far from discouraged. The Elis' supporters pointed out that Minnesota won tbe game, 7 to 6, on a touchdown scored via the aerial route. This is the Bulldogs' chief stock in trade. Although the Michigan squad, which arrived here this morning, brimmed with confidence, Fritz Crisler, the Wolverines new head coach, wanted no part of it. He recalled that during the past four years, three of his Princeton-tutored elevens were knocked off by Yale, twice under circumstances similar to the present setup when his teams were outstanding favorites.

The two squads went through final pre-game preparations this afternoon after which Yale announced that Felix Caraeciolo would start at guard, the only change in the eleven that defeated Navy last week. The kick-off is scheduled at 2 p. m. (EST). LAFAYETTE EXPECTING 10,000 FOR N.

Y. U. TILT EASTON, Oct. 21. VP) Lafayette, seeking its second straight victory after losing its first two games of the season, meets New York University here tomorrow in a foot ball game expected to attract 10,000.

Humbled by Pennsylvania and Brown, Lafayette came back last week to swamp Washington-Jefferson, 27 to 0, with an overhead and running attack that pleased Coach "Hooks" Mylin. The Maroon is favored to repeat its 1937 victory over the New York eleven. ml1 Ju i 9 ii- it WEATHERLY-CHUNK IN TITLE GAME The Weatherly High School soccer team now tied for the lead in the Mountain League with East Mauch Chunk, will have a chance to win first honors on Tuesdav afternoon at 4 o'clock at the Weafherry field when the Chunkcr will be the attraction.

(JP) Dartmouth's stylish football Indians, undefeated in their last 19 games, completed their preparations for Harvard today with mixed feelings. Coach Earl (Red) Blaik was confident his high-powered regulars could more than hold their own against Dick Harlow's Crimson magic but he appeared to have little confidence in his reserves.

Hazleton High's intention to start its powerhouse team against the Whippets is a precautionary measure that must be admired. Coach Olenizcak is wary of an upset, and do team will tee off against anything but his best this year, Freeland has never been a pushover for Hazleton. In many lines of sport the North Side have been able to trim the city boys to the queen's taste. So it is necessary today to regard Freeland as a good rival, a team that has been able to produce its best against Hazleton. With one or two exceptions, due to recent injuries, of the regulars will start, and this is a sure indication that the best that the Whippets possess, will be challenged early for this is one season when Ha letoa is really hot.

Four bands add to this super attraction for an afternoon of real enjoyment. Sammy Boyle's McAdoo Maroons, a team that must be admired for its pluck, will tee off against a somewhat injury-riddled Summit Hill team. But the belief is that the Maroons could lick Summit Hill at its best this season, and so, it looks like a big day in McAdoo, and for McAdoo, Hazleton High's prided band will strut forth in new glory on its way to the stadium today. The new band uniforms have arrived and offer an acquisition to the band that makes it one of the largest, and one of the most outstanding in the state. Attention Davey Lewis.

Director Joe Ricipato, of the Bethlehem Liberty High Band, paid a visit to Hazleton this week and made a survey of Harman-Geist Memorial Field, in order that he could plan his Beating arrangements, his drill space and other flashes that the famed Red and Blue band is noted for. He will find some opposition from Hazleton High on this occasion. Tomorrow at Cranberry Stadium, the Hazleton Redskins will determine their own fate. This great assembly of players will be facing the a pennant but far more than that is only team that stands in its way to nt stake. The team will decide its future by the patronage accorded tomorrow.

In plain words, if the turnout tomorrow 13 not up to the expectations of the promoters of the Redskins, pro foot ball in Hazleton will come to an end. Hazleton High scouts will be thick and plentiful at Pottsville today, when the Crimson and White will be forced to show its best against the Allentown Canaries. On November 11th, in a night game at Pottsville, the Mountaineers will be the opponents of Tubby Allen's team. And that game may be the last barrier toward a "Big Fifteen" title. MALDEN, Oct.

21 (P) Joseph Cignetti, who sent his son Peter from his hospital bedside to Philadelphia to join his Boston College teammates against Temple, died today of injuries suffered in an automobile accident on Columbus Day. The elder Cignetti was returning from the Boston College-Detroit game, in which his son starred, when he was struck down. Pete, a hard-crashing fullback, gave up all college activities to remain at his father's bedside. Yesterday he gave him a blood transfusion and it so helped the parent that he pleaded with his boy to rejoin his teammates. Peter 'consented, but only after the team had en- trained, and he was forced to fly to Philadelphia this morning.

Just before Pete took the gridiron in Temple Stadium, his father died. Both of his legs were fractured in the accident and last Monday the right limb was amputated. News of his death was withheld until after the game, which ended in a 26-26 tie. HUNTING LICENSES.
