Varsity Held To Two Scores Veterans Are Unable to Pierce Scrtib Eleven's Defensive Armour in Scrimmage PASSES ARE FRUITFUL Zinder and Delaney Tally Six Pointers by Aerial Route After Line Play Fails Special to The Republican CAMP COFFEY, Lake Lo dore, Sept. 23. Team of St. Thomas college grid squad, comprised almost entirely of veterans slated? a against Bucknell university in tne opening game of the sea son at Lewisburg Saturday, was held to two touchdowns by a fighting scrub eleven in scrimmage here this after noon. The veterans were unable to carry tne Da 11 down tne neid with any de gree of success and were forced to at tempt by the.

aerial offensive. A touch down was scored mid way in the nearly one hour of scrimmage and an ether six pointer shortly before Coach Jack Harding called a halt to the prac tice. iJotn tries lor point after touch down failed. After battering away at the second string forward wall for more than flf teen minutes, Jlmmie Hanlon, at quar terback, switched the 'varsity attack to the overhead game and two at tempts resulted in a touchdown. "Big Joe" Zinder, end on the varsity last season, receiving a pass over the line of scrimmage from Captain Clarence "Fats" Robson and subsequently ran about forty yards for a score.

Acting on orders from Harding, the "varsity backs again began bucking the line but as in the early portion of the scrimmage, the scrubs held firmly. Three first downs were secured by the "varsity in more than ten minutes of piay. Hanlon there passed to Walter Delaney, a wingman, and another score resulted. Delaney had only fifteen yards to Jaunt before reaching the goal line. If the 'varsity was unable to gain through the line, neither could the scrub eleven.

The second string ball carriers were unable to register more than one first down throughout the afternoon although on several occa sions they came within Inches of se curing the necessary distance, starring on the defense for the scrubs were Julius Lenchitsky at end; McCabe at center: Joe Feefley at guard; Esatbrook at fullback; Breckinridge at quarter and Sidney "Murph" Rosen feld at tackle. "Shoulders" McGlynn played well at halfback on the defense but his rushes were stopped on the offense. Harding said today that the team will indugle in a last scrimmage to morrow afternoon. The players will conduct signal practice Thursday morning and in the afternoon will break camp and go by motor to Lewisburg. A final practice will be held at the Christy Mathewson Memorial stadium, home of the Thundering Herd.

Van Bureh Tigers Practice Tonight The Van Buren Tigers, who blazed through a hectic schedule df eleven games last year undefeated in order to win second class honors, will hold a signal drill this evening at 30 o'clock at 2225 Jackson street. The Tigers, who will Inaugurate their 1929 drive next Sunday with their neighboring rivals the West Side Pool, engaged in a scrimmage game with the Marvine A. A.

last Sunday on the Luzerne street grounds. Coach Mike Tobln sent two full teams Into OUR BOARDING the British Open Champion is to be A Jubilee for the veteran golfers of the world was neid in Britain recently, when the British Seniors Golfing society entertained fourteen players from the United States and a score from Canada. One of the opening events which was contested at Addington drew one hundred and thirty players. Including all the Americans and Canadians, and was won by Mr. J.

Beaumont who equaled the record of the course' with a 71. It is true that, in consideration of the years of some of the competitors, the "holes were not in their fullest stretch, but the score represented a fine performance lor a veteran of flfty $lx who playd golf and lawn ten sis for Oxford as long ago as 1889. Mr. Pease is chairman of Lloyds Bank, and It is most interesting that a man with such an important post in the filancial world Is still capable of doing a 71 at Addington. Sir Alfred Mays Smith, playing remarkable gojf for a man of 66, finished two strokes behind Mr.

Pease, with a 73. The oldest 'competitor was N. L. Jackson, 'of Stokes Poges; who is 77 years old and who returned a score of sa. i A lew days later came the triangular International between Great Britain, United States and Canada at Sunnlng dale.

The contest was decided by singles and the players go)ng out in. or sixes in the foursomes sos that each player was playing off his match against two opponents simultaneously. The method involved some mathematical Intricacies. However, Great Britain beat the States by 18 matches to X0 while the States, defeated Canada by 16 matches to 9. "The outstanding performers on the British side were Mr Edward Black well and Mr.

R. H. de Montmorency, who scored maximum points In both singles and Mr. Blackwell, who captained the British team, scored ft 5 to 4 victory over Mr. G.

S. Lyon, who is 69 and has wen the Canadian Amateur Championship' twelve times, the first in 1898 and the last in 1914, and the Canadian Senior Championship every year from J918 to 1922. The British Seniors were expected, to be to strong for their opponents because golf in the States and Canada is a paint of too recent growth to have yet produced a sufflclenly stout crop veteran It is interesting, to note that recently John D. Rockefeller celebrated his eighty eighth birthday by playing his usual nine holes of Could "BAT" BATTALINO Snyder's Bowlers Lead Mirtz League In matches rolled last week in Mirtz': House league Jack Ross and his new Fords defeated Schieber's Marble and Tile, three straight; Miller's School boys took three from Myers' Bakery, Klein's Undertakers defeated Schrieb er's Men's Shop three straight, and Snyder's White Rocks defeated Schu macker's Buckwurst three straight.

Apprentice allowance claimed. a a Slim Italian Boy From Connecticut Annexes Honors by Beating French Veteran 17,000 WITNESS BOUT Referee Gives New Champion Every Round Sets Record 'For Jumping Into Fame By EDWARD J. NEIL (Associated Press Sports Writer) HARTFORD, Sept. 23.

Christopher "Bat" Battalino, slim Italian boy, stepped into the crown room ol the featherweights tonight and with all the ease, speed and insolence of youth swept the coronet of champion from the head of Andre Routls. The French veteran, holder of the title for only a was scarcely ever a contender in his efl'ort to save the crown. So wide was Battalino's margin of superiority that Referee Billy Conway, the sole arbiter under the boxing laws of Connecticut, gave every one of the 15 rounds to the challenger while about 17.000 of the faittfTul rocked the stadium with applause. The crowd paid approximately $60,000 for the entertainment, a new record for fight gate receipts in this state. Scarcely a half dozen times during the long combat was Routls, plunging turtle type of fighter who charges into action with one glove covering his chin and the other swinging wildly, able to catch up with the fleet youth of 21, who fought with the generalship of twice his years.

There were no knockdowns but the wild maneuvering about the ring caused Battalino' to slip to the floor twice as punches caught him off balance. Once Routls went down the same time but neither was In danger of a knockout at any time. Routls managed to draw a trickle of blood from Battalino's nose early In the skirmish. And the new champion brushed the skin from the right eye of the old In the very first round. It was not a thrilling battle as Routls, at his best In close, fought all night with but one.

aim to get his gloves on the ribs of the annoying challenger with the obstlnancy of youth coupled with very good judgment, Battling kept him at a distance, jabbed, hooked and slammed firsts into the charging Frenchman's head, and tied the bristling Routls Into a helpless bundle when he did manage to get to grips. Despite the referee's optimistic score count, critics at the ringside gave, the Frenchman credit for a much better showing. The aggressiveness of the departing champion forcing Bat talino to hold determinedly at gave Routls an edge in the second, seventh, eighth and fourteenth ses sions. Battalino, wKh less than three years" as a professional behind him, prob ably set some kind of a record to night for high jumping from obscurity to boxing fame.

Railroad fry. ruwijjtjsMij cision after ten furious rounds The slim Wilkes Barre Irish feath erwelght was on the short end of the verdict all because he tired in the last (our rounds and took a terrific beating around the body as well as stopping many of the Dunmore boy's short choppy rights with nis chin. The decision of the two judges and referee was unanimous although there were many in the hall who believed Britton was entitled to at least a draw. Jackson won, without a doubt, and left the ring unmarked and ap parently in good shape for his bout in Wilkes Barre next week against Steve Smith. In our opinion Jackson either took things easy or was sluggish at 128 pounds.

The Bucktown Italian usual ly come In weighing exactly 126 but yesterday he tipped the two pounds heavier and appeared slow compared to his other bouts. Regardless of whether Jackson eased up or was sluggish it must be said of Britton that he gave Al a much better fight than either Billy Kowalik or Charley Pinto. He had Jackson on the run often and peppered him with rights and lefts plenty and often. The only knockdown of the fight was scored In the eighth stanza when Jackson, after being on the receiving end for the first two minutes of the round, rallied and battered his opponent all over the ring. A few sec onds before the bell sounded Jackson clipped Britton with a short right to the chin and the Wilkes Barre at down as pretty as you please.

He was up, however, before a count was started. Britton gave the fans a thrill In the second round when he nearly turned Jackson all the way around with a beautiful right to the Jaw. In the third Britton continued his good work by slowing Al up with rights and lefts to the face and body but In the fourth Britton was forced to stand up under some terrific body punishment. Jackson carried the fifth by a wide margin but O'Leary came back to capture the sixth by a great finish and the Luzerne county boy also copped the honors In the seventh and had his opponent hanging on at the bell. The eighth and ninth were Jack sons by a wide margin.

Al clipped Jackie with short uppercuts and for a time it looked as though the Dunmore boy would win by a knockout. The tenth was about even. Gene Baldoni. Hilldale Italian. pulled the surprise of the night by pounding out a victory over the rugged Pete Petrolle in the semi final.

The eteran Fargo battler was away off and Baldoni won by a comfortable margin. There were only two male indi viduals in all the multitude who were the opinion that Frank Petrolle beat Joe Coolbaugh, and by the same token they were the only two whose opinion amounted to a tinker's blasphemy, namely one of the judges and the referee. There wasn't a fight on the whole menu that approached In intensity and Interest this melee between Frank and Joe. It was action all the way. The latter started in with a six pound handicap in his favor and he used it to very good advantage In the sextet of periods.

Joe didn't scare off Frankie one little bit. In fact he held the visitor rather cheaply, snarling with a half smile in Petrolle's face every time the latter hit a bull's eye. Joe was In great shape for the bat tle and gave an account of himself that convinced most of the onlookers that he was Frank's better. One round in particular, Joe shone with a real fistic brilliance. That was the fifth.

In the first part of it. Frank out boxed Joe but before the round as a minute of aze. Coolbaugh started to pepper his opponent's face with short left jabs and right hooks and before the round was over Petrolle's face was a sight. in the sixth round Coolbauim started In to repeat but at one stage he got his feet all tangled up and rode into left jab that set him down, but he was up like a ball and smiling all over. The bell then rang and when the tickets were checked it was found to everybody's amazement that Coolbaugh had lost.

Tom Walsh votsd for him but Lelberman and the referee. Jack Walton, said Petrolle. and you can play mat on your narmonica. Tony Occipenti, Dunmore's sturdy veteran was back in our midst with Walter Pluckard and his patent leather hair comb. They fough six rounds during which Tony hogged most of the calcium.

Occipenti really fought a clever fight, though, to be sure, he hadn't much opposition from Pluckard either from the kick in his gloves or the glare from that Imported hair comb. Several times it looked as though Tony had Walter aU primed for a knockout but the latter managed to wriggle out of it, and the affair went the limit with Tony getting the unanimous decision. By a heroic stand in the fourth round, Pete Mack, of Minooka, managed to squeeze out a last minute decision over Tony Carr, of the South Side In the opener a four round tilt. Carr was nasty medicine for Pete for three rounds, but he tired after the third session ended and Mack sailed home to win the fourth. Miller Signs 3 Year Contract at Temple PHILADELPHIA, Sept.
