Coarh of the IIGly (WWI Football Team. LARKIN IS THE COACH. Reelected to Look After Interests of Holy Cross Football Eleven Triggs the New Captain. At a meeting of the Holy Cross A. held at Worcester yesterday, Timothy F.

Larkin of Worcester was again chosen coach of the football eleven for next season. Larkin has been coach for purple elevens for the past two seasons. and has made great progre3s. Ile graduated from the college in 1905. Larkin received his early instruction at the Worcester high school, where he played quarterback on the eleven for two seasons.

On his entrance to Holy Cross college he went out for the quarterback position, making it with ease, and it all the time he was in the institution. Hs first experience as a coach was with the Worcester academy eleven, where he had great success. Daniel Triggs, a Brockton boy, was chosen captain of the eleven for the coming season. SCHULZ THE QUESTION. Michigan University May Return to Western Conference Unless Football Captain is Declared ineligible The question of whether or not Michigan returns to the Western Conference agsoclation may be brought Up if there is any attempt to dispute the election of Germany Schulz as captain of the Michigan football eleven for 1908.

Schulz Is one of the men whoa under the three-year eligibility rule of the conference, would be barred I.rom competing in sports if Michigan agreed to subscribe to the rules of the conference. The recent meeting of the conference association did not take any steps toward reinstating Michigan or asking tne Wolverines back, nor did the representative from, Ann Arbor make any move. It was suggested in some of the by-talk of the conference, apparently. that if Michigan did come back and agreed to subscribe to the rules the election of Schulz would be void and that another captain would have to be selected. To this the Michigan Daily replies: "Germany Schulz is now recognized as captain of Michigan's next football team just as surely as was Billy Heston In his palmiest days, and while Michigan students are not averse to going back into active alliance with the western schools.

any attempt to debar Schulz from his fairly won honor is sure to cause an unroar which may upset all of the feeling of compromise which is now evident. QUINCY HIGH'S TEAM. First Basket-Ball Team in School's History Will be Put on the Floor This Season. QUINCY, Dec 10Basket ball is booming at the Quincy high school just at present, although this Is the first season that the sport has been introduced. In past years the school has been very well represented in football, having one of the best elevens in the state.

A very formidable baseball nine has also borne the school colors. and It is hoped that the basket-ball team will be a success. The students have been 'greatly handicapped because of the small amount of room in width they had to practice, having no gymnasium, but this year the whole outlook has changed, and with the gymnasium in the new scitool building, a greater opportunity presented itself to play the game. Graduates have taken much interest in the sport, anti. as there is abundant material for the five.

there is no reason why the school should not have one of the fastest quintets in the state. As Yet no captain has been elected, but probably will in the course of a few days. Practice has been in progress at the school gymnasium for the past few days, with more than 25 candidates responding to the call, including Timothy Keoltane. captain et the baseball nine. Ho is a Aery fast basket-hall player, and is almost sure to make a place the team Players of the Quincy Y.

While on the way from Feirigsville to Trezlertown. Penn. in a touring car Monday night, a party of five met with a peculiar accident. The road was heavy end the pace of the machire rather slow. Suddenly a wild duck seen in the shine of the headlights coming straight at the car.

It was tittracted by the dazzling light. and it dashed head on into the glass shield in front of the machine. smashing it to bits and painfully cutting the chauffeur.

Francis II. Burr of Chestnut Hill, two years left guard on the Harvard varsity team, and this year left tackle, Is the man who will be the captain next year of the Harvard eleven. Ile was unanimously elected yesterday. "Hooks" Burr was stamped as a football player the first moment he placed his foot on Soldiers field. As a schoolboy he had played at Noble Greenough, and then spent a year at Andover, coming to Cambridge in the fall of 194.,: with the reputation of being one of the best developed kickers ever turned out from a preparatory school and without varsity experience.

The first afternoon Burr appeared on Soldiers field he was taken by the hand by Bill Reid, and from that moment he was as good as a member of the Harvard team. His build anti his wonderful kicking made him material without which Harvard could not do. In his freshman year Burr played guard on the varsity, and he played there again a year ago. He was tremendously strong, and he handled himself splendidly. He weighted about 1165 pounds, being slightly heavier than he was this year.

he is 21 years old. At the end of his second season he was chosen by Walter Camp as guard on the recognized "All-America" eleven. In speaking of Burr, Mr Camp said: "Burr of Harvard, as confemsed by all critics this year, is, in addition to his punting ability, a first-class guard. lie plays the position well. He is powerful, active, has football sense, and can be relied on to extend himself to his limit no matter what the odds may he against him.

When to all this is added his ability as a distance kicker, it is no wonder that he is regarded as 8, valuable man. "In the Yale game (1906) he repeatedly took passes from his center rolling along the and in spite of every handicap managed to get the ball up and then get it' away without his kick being hlo. ked. Any one of these poor passes might have lost an ordinary game, and there would have been no found with the kicker had he failed to get the ball off. "Burr handled each one of them well, just as he did in la05 under even more adverse conditions.

Ile kicks a long hall, and it goes high enough so that his ends can cover a good portion of the Kick." Last fall Coach Crane, after sifting out the candidates for Harvard's line, decided to play Capt Parker at guard Instead of center, and to bring Waldo Pierce in from tackle to guard. At the same time he shifted Burr from guard to tackle. In the first games of the season Burr's development in his new place was very slow, and he never was as conspicuous a tackle as he was a guard. In the first place, he did not like the new place on the line as he did the old one, and it was hard for him to adapt himself to the new requirements. For a long time he continued to do the kicking.

but Harvard's formation for protecting kicks was Try unsatisfactory, and Burr had many of his kicks blocked in games and also in the practice. This interfered with Burr'e all-round game, and made him nervous and somewhat high strung. Almost on the eve of the Yale dame it was decided that Burr was needed In the line to play his best game. Consequently be was relieved of his d'uties as kicker, this work falling to the lot of quarterback Newhall. a clever left-footed punter, and to Wendell, who did the most of the shorter onside kicking.

In the Yale game Burr played against Copt Biglow, and acquitted himself well against tbis unusually strong veteran. Those who made it a point to watch these two players against each other say that each played the cleanest and most sportsmanlike game they ever saw in a big game. Last spring there was some doubt whether Burr would return to college another year after this one, but, deciding to complete his college course in four years, instead of making the endeavor to get his degree in three years. Burr probably gained the distinction far himself of being the last man in football history to play four years running on the eleven. Burr's class.

'09, was the last, as freshmen, to send members out as candidates for the university team, and under the present rules no one can play more than three years on a f011egP eleven. But that the rule was not made retroactive makes it possible for Burr to play again for Harvard next fall. Burr not only is a football player. but he is actively interested in other branches of snort. In his freshman year he came out as a candidate for the varsity hall nine, taking the south- ern trip.

and playing first base in see. eral games. Ile did not make the varsity team, however. Last spring he came out for the nine again. hut before the candidates left the cage Burr determined to try his hand at rowing.

So he went out for the crew. He was rather crude as an oar. hut coach Wray believed that be had the makings of an exceptionally tine oar. Burr rowed No. 6 on the third crew for awhile, and was showing a great improvement, when it suddenly became necessary for him to go abroad.

This was early last spring. and Burr did not return until the beginning of tha football campaign this fall. Burr's proficiency in athletics has not come at the expense of his academic work. He is what is known at college as a "high stand" man. and is a remarkable example of the tvne that makes a success of anything it under.

takes to accomplish. Burr was made the president of his freshman class. and he has reaped all the hanors that come to a man who is prominent as an athlete, socially and I as an all-around splendid fellow, whom everyone likes. Ills popularity is not confind to a small circle of friends, but he is known and held in high regard in ell the walks of the great university with which he has come in slightest touch. Burr is a young man with a very distinct individuality, and has a mind of his own.

j3e has applied himself to football es te the courses he has taken at and has been a student of the game. not merely a player of it. He is positive, aggressive rather than defensive. 'None knows what his will be relating to the coach to st Harvard's football team through next season. Next season at Cambridge will be a hard one.

This fall Harvard had intik viduale who, most of them, had Bill Reid's strenuous training for two years, and were capable of playing-better fentball than they did last fall as a team. Next fall there will be a dearth of experienced material, and to build up a winning team Burr and his head coach will have to accomplish everything in one season. This fall football for 1908 was considered on Soldiers field. About the Boxers. e.

the Cambridge lightweight, is not worrying about the outcome of his battle with Ireddie Welsh, which takes place In Chelsea tomorrow night, for he Is feeling confident of springing another surprise on the fans. He does not doubt the stories about the wonderful cleverness of Welsh. and he is better pleased that Welsh has such a reputation, as he figures that the Victory Will be all the greater, If he Wins, than if Welsh was a weak boxer. Deshler is training hard at Cambridge with several speedy boxers, and he figures that Welsh will not have a great deal on him in that line. The Cambridge boxer is a harder puncher than the Englishman, and believes that after he has landed a few of his wallops to Welsh the latter will be slowed down.

There has been considerable discussion going on in England as to whether Jem Mace or Tom Sayers was the better boxer. According to the memoirs of the late HenTs, Sampson. who was regarded as the best judge of a boxer's abilities, it was the opinion of Sampson that Mace, fit and well, and In a good-sized ring, would have beaten Sayers at his best. It appears that the match between Tommy Burns and Jack Palmer was brought about by Charley Mitchell, who, while a great admirer of Burns, believes Palmer Scan het him, as the latter fights on quite the same lines as Burns.

Much interest Wag centred last night In the new acquisition to Andrew M. Tyner's kennels, specimen, l'ut a difficult dog to snow. He is rapout, two years old, and a typical I French bull dog. Ho is tow. wide in the shoulders, has a good spread of forelegs and 'a magnificent head.

Ile became fussy and snappy when shown, and because of his bad actions did not get what he was entitled to. But it was his first time in the that he will improve there is no doubt. On the bench he is a gentleman, is in short. He changed with the big fellow and pitched after John L. had pitched five innings, the latter going to short.

There was a big crowd to see the big fellow in baseball uniform. "It seems that Ted had arranged to tour the south with a picked team, named the St Louis Combination. John L. had his bcxing combination with him and they were to leave next day for the west and north. That night Ted sent a wiro to New Orleans stating when his combination would start.

The operator at Cairo got the combinations mixed, stating to his friends Llong the line that John L. Sullivan. tiith his fighting combination, would go south and take breakfast there. The word was passed along and all the people were out to see the great John L. Sure enough when Ted.and his players arrived at Cairo next morning the depot was crowded and the people yelled for John L.

to appear. Ted and Charlie Comiskey caught on to the mistake and ts bound to make it go through. He selected pitchtir George McGinnis of the Browns, who resembled Sullivan in physique; In fact. It was Mac's uniform ithat Sullivan had to use in the game. McGinnis appeared or.

the platform and bowed to the crowd. This act set VP a big cheer and voices were heard all over calling out "that's him." Tilig was kept up all along the roLte until midnight. Boxes of cigars and bottles of wine were presented to tha supposed Sullivan all day. The ball players had a great time, having a great treat while passing through the south, all st the expense of John who was in Bloomington, Ill, at that time. BATCHELDER AGAIN.
