Some of the larger Eastern colleges have big football games in prospect for tomorrow for the first time this Mason, although Yale and Harvard will be still engaged in the so-called tuning up process of secondary contests. One -of the closest fought battles of the day; may be expected at Princeton. Twenty-seven members of the Dartmouth squad arrived in New York from New Hampshire early today on their way to meet the Tigers.

Five hundred undergraduates followed the Dartmouth squad down from Hanover. Coach Cavanaugh said today that with the exception of Ambrose and Show his team was in the pink' of con- dition and well fit for a hard tussle. I Penn Plays Indians. One of the many grievancei to be presented by the Players' Fraternity when the National commission and the National association hold their next meetings deals with a former Scranton player and the Scranton team. The Fraternity uses the release of Bill Torrey by the Miners as one of the unfair and unreasonable things allowed under the present base ball rules.

President Dave Fultz has prepared the statement in 'behalf of the players. 1 Bill Torrey was sent here by the Giants and he claims he had an agreement that his big league contract was to hold good here, meaning that before he could be released he would have to secure ten days' notlcf Such notice was not given Torrey by the Miners, and when he appealed to the National commission that body refused to allow the claim against either New York or Scranton. Fultz maintains that the contract should hold gooa regardless of the league the player Is farmed to and make a fight for such a rule. Another case mentioned by the Players' association is the sale of Jack Knight, who was signed by the Yankees at a salary of $4,000 a year, only to be shipped to Jersey City, where he was compelled to accept a big reduction in salary. It is th claim of the players that clubs making contracts to pay players so much salary should be forced to comply to 'the letter.

While none of the State league players are identified with the Fraternity they will benefit from whatever changes are made in the rules, inasmuch as the National association rannot legislate for one or two leagues alone. The action this organ Outplaying all rivals for the golf championship of the Scranton Country club, Frank C. Fuller, champion of 1912, repeated the feat this year. The finals, between Fuller and Douglas J. Torrey, were played eighteen holes Wednesday and eighteen holes yesterday.

But thirty-six holes were not enough. So even was the match that it went to the thirty-ninth for decision. At the sixteenth tee on the econd day of play, it looked as if Fuller would loose the match; he was two down, with three to play. But he got a half with a six, as both drove out of bounds, and was then dormie two. At this point Torrey had simply to halve one of the two remaining holes to win the mach.

Fuller was lighting up hill and Instead of getting discouraged seemed to acquire courage, as shown by the results. Seventeenth hole Torrey drove a long ball and was followed by Fuller, straight down the course. Fuller's approach was a beauty, twelve feet from the flag. Torrey overran somewhat and had to take five, his opponent winning with a par four. Eighteenth hole Fuller played the home hole beautifully he had to, to prolong his lease of life his tee shot stopping on the green.

Torrey made a long drive, was too long and cost him a stroke In getting back to the green and two putts. Fuller's hole, three to four, squaring the match. Nineteenth hole Both played this hole in par figures, halving it. The match still all even. Twentieth hole This turned out to be the final breaking point of the contest.

Fuller had the honor and slightly sliced his long tee shot into the rough at the riaht of the The proposed ten round fight between Willie Beecher' and Knockout Brown in New York has fallen through. Brown demanded more money than the Atlantic Garden A. C. stood ready to pay and the promoters accordingly cancelled the engagement. The boys were scheduled to mill on November 4.

It is thought Jimmy Tighe will be seen at the Star theater within a few weeks. Tighe wants several more bouts before meeting Connors. He'll be ready for Connors after the holidays. The contest between Gunboat Smith and. Charley scheduled for New York next Friday night, has been postponed until November 11, the promoters being afraid two big fights in a week are too much for even New York.

Ritchie and Cross clash Wednesday night. Johnny Shrugue, of Jersey City, and Johnny Griffiths, of Akron, have been matched to fight ten rounds in Canton, November 2. Manager O'Rawe, of the Coliseum A. of Wilkes-Barre, has decided to set aside a bunch of the reserved seats at the Kid Wagner-Mike Gibbons mill next Thursday night for Scranton sports. In this way the numerous fight lovers here who intend to take in the mill will not have to go to Wilkes-Barre hours beforp he battle in order to land good seats.

Promoters were here yesterday in view of matching Tommy Ginty, of this city, with Danny Cullen, of Hazleton, for ten rounds next month in Wilkes-Barre. Cullen has fought McCann and making a better showing against Dewey' than he did with McCann. Torrey followed suit with a tremendous hook into the woods at the left. The "little god of golfing luck" took a hand, however, and Torrey's ball was resting in the fairway. He approached nicely, as did Fuller from the rough.

On the green, Fuller's third auuivc seemea a sure tnree, but a worm-caste deflected the ball and stymied Torrey, thus depriving him of a possioie tnree. Both got fours and the match went to the twenty-lrst hole. Twenty-first hole This is a ahnrr. blind hole. Fuller drove to within a vara or so or tne cup, with a chance for a two.

Torrey hooked his drive. approached short, and took two putts to get aown. iuuer, not having to take any chances here, played his second safe and his third in, winning the hole and the championship. The sixteen that qualified for the cnampionsnlp tournament, and the summary of nlav. are follows- The drawings for the tournament were: c.

Yushiff Mahmout, a Bulgarian wrestler, who met a number of Ameri can mat men, including Frank Qotch honors last night at the Star theater. Ferguson put Baker to the canvass in the initial round, but Baker fought well enough in the other periods to not only gain a draw, but to also satisfy the crowd that he is one of the best visiting pugilists seen here in many a moon.

From the opening bell in the first round until the final period closed it was a case of fight, fight, fight, Baker relying on his left and Ferguson on -his right. Incidentally it might be said that it was Tommy's right that saved him. Without it he would have been lost. It was with this mitt that Ferguson beat a majority of Baker's ferocious left swings and it was the same right that kicked Baker in the jaw In the opener and sent him to the floor. 1 Baker devoted his attention toward body punches when he found that his swings were not doing their work.

In this respect he landed some hard blows and inflicted some punishment which Tommy didn't like. But Tommy paid him back blow for blow. In nearly every round Ferguson planted a couple of straight right handers against Baker's jaw, while in the infighting Tommy also held his own. Ferguson had a shade the better of the first period through his knockdown, this doesn't mean Baker didn't put up a lot of fight. In the second round Baker fought better and earned a sliftht margin.

In the. third Ferguson had the advantage. The iourtn was tne. hardest round of the contest. Time, after time both boys were found exchanging blow for blow and swing for swing.

The Jifth and sixth were also of the slam bang iype. came out or nis corner in the sixth determined to land his left for a sleep producer, but he failed to succeed. Tommy either blocked it with his right or avoided the blow autogether. They were hammering away in great shape when the fight came to a close. In the preliminary Young Willie Ritchie, of Dickson City, won from Paddy Langdon, of South Scranton.

The mill went six rounds but Langdon was in bad shape at the finish. Neither boy displayed much ring ability and the six rounds were devoted almost exclusively to wild swinging and clinching. Johnny Glover refereed both fights. He introduced Tommy Connors and rankle McCann and announced that Young Fisher, of Olyphant, and Frankie Burke, of WilkesBarre, have been matched to fight in Wilkes-Barre on the night of November 7. It was also announced that Tommy Connors has received an offer to accompany George Chip to Europe, and that the two will sail on November 2 if present plans do not go wrong.

Players' Fraternity Is Not Worrying Cub Boss CHICAGO, Oct. 24. Statements weer made here today that Major league baseball players who are members of the Players' Protective' fraternity, have signed an agreement not to close contracts for the season of 1914 until ifter the annual meetings of the club owners, at which certain reforms drawn by the players, will be submitted. Manager John Evers, of the Chl-i cago Nationals, wh) forfeited his membership in the fraternity when he became a manager, admitted ha Vioorri rv? tho a rsojYinn Ho said that all 'but a half dozen reg-f ulars had signed for next season under term contracts. At Princeton the problem of dealing with 'the forward pass plays of the Hanover team engaged Coach Andrews in a light drill yesterday afternoon.

The team showed improvement, particularly in the work of Gile, who may be seen tomorrow at either left guard or tackle. Trained Keene Fitz-patrlck thinks his men are in fine condition and ready to give a good account of themselves. The University of Pennsylvania Against the Carlisle Indians is also expected to prove an even struggle tomorrow. The Pennsylvanians lined up against a second eleven trained in the new kinks of theIndian formation yesterday afternoon and broke them up with the utmost ease. Meanwhile at the Carlisle school, Coach Warner, by the use of an ingenious strategem had his men engage in a strenuous afternoon's His new was a 'manTiik in Hrll Thfl Mpa VL-aa tn All lout a team opposite the Varsity, in structing it not to resist the onslaught i Of the regulars.

The men went through the general defense formation but restrained from coming forcibly into contact with the varsity players, which saved the much bruised Indians from further hurts. At New Haven some slight apprehension is said to be felt over tomorrow's game with Washington and Jefferson after the latter's 17 to 0 victotry over Penn State. Generally, however, this is not taken seriously and those who saw the Varsity playing at top speed against the scrubs yesterday were confident that the team was in form to deal with the visitors, however hard their opponents might prove to be- One of the latest sources of enthusiasm in the Yale camp is the work of Benjamin Avery, at left end. In yesterday's practice he handled Wilson's forward pass from the 15-yard line for the only score of the afternoon. Harvard Not On the basis of the Washington and Jefferson score against Penn State college Harvard in meeting the latter tomorrow should have less to fear than Yale, engaged with the formerT The Crimson players worked with a vengeance in final practice for the game yesterday.

The scrimmage lasted forty minutes with honors even between the opposing squads. Captain Storer play ed his first game at end and made such a good showing that it seemed likely he would be kept at that position. Olllman, who took place at tackle showed tip strongly and will probably be kept in Storer's old place. 1 At West Point" there has been no let up all week in development of the Army eleven and the Cadets expect to defeat Tufts tomorrow although they have suffered a considerable set back from injuries and weakness was shown in last Saturday's contest with Colgate.

WilHain Mnorv, physi cal director at the Catholic club, and commissioner for the Amateur Athletic union in Scranton. las; night said he was apposed to the system jurt proposed hy President Kirhy, or me A.

A. U. Mr. Kirbys is to allow amateurs lb compete hi meets with professionals with the un t'orstanding that all such meets would be eanctioned by the A. A.

L. -'he scheme proposed by Ma Kir-by. if carried out, would give arna- teuts medals and professionals money tor appearing in the meets and then ir any money was lert over it wouid fSo to the A. A V. When asked for his opinion on the money question, Mr.

Moore said that If the various clubs were required to turn the profits of their meets over to the. parent body lie knows of auite a few small organizations that could not exist. These associations depend on the profits of their athletic meets to exist, according to Mr. Moore. As to giving the professionals money and the amateur a medal for appearing in the same meet, it strikes Mr, Moore as though such a system would soon wreck amateurism.

He contends it would be placing the amateur up against pretty strong tempta tion, and that in least hall the cases it would turn out that the amateur had concluded todgive up the A. A. and unite with the men who were getting money. Taking the Kirby suggestion as a whole, Mr. Moore is opposed to it, and didn't hesitate to give it as his opinion that the A.

A. U. delegates would never countenance such action. Some First Sacker. Del Drake, of the Kansas City club and who was one of the boss batsmen in Farrell's family several years ago, is in Wilkes Barre.

Drake married a Wilkes-Barre girl, and it is his plan to spend the Winter in Luzerne county. In talK ing to the writer yesterday the Cow-, boy termed himself the greatest living first baseman, not even excepting Chase, Daubert and Mclnnes. To back up his claim he told- of a record he made when playing first for Kansas City this season. In one game he claims he figured In four double plays by tossing the ball to second and then getting back for the shortstop's throw to nail the batsman bound for first. He started another play of the same kind, but the shortstop dropped the ball, thus killing the fifth double.

If there is another first sacker with such a record Drake would like to know his name. Kirke Some Hitter. Jay Kirke was the Lajoie of the American association without a doubt this year. He finished with a healthful figure and, according to Del Drake, the former Mlmsr, certainly pasted the pill for keeps. "I never saw a player hit like Kirke did," Del said.

He drove them through the infield a mile a minute and shoved them into all outfields. Drake thinks Kirke will work his way back into the big tent, again. What la Sparrlnaf In ruling on the charges of manslaughter against Jesse WJllard and nine other prize ring figures, Judge Craig, of the criminal department of the Supreme court of California, gave his opinion of a sparring match as defined In the laws relating to the sport. The jurist's opinion reads: A sparring match is one in which two persons attempt, through skill and science, to strike each other and to avoid being struck, but in which there is no attempt to in flict serious injury and in which the incentive to win Is not through a "knockout," but through skill In boxing. -We are not saying that Craig Is right, but it is plain to be seen that if he is there are hundreds of prize ring principals who are guilty of violating the law each time they enter the ring.

There are some fighters who are not always striving for knockouts, but they 'are few and far between. The general rule Is to secure a knockout as quickly as possible, and the idea seems to have become contagious because at most boxing shows In the present day the spectators do not believe they are getting their money's worth unless at least one rlngster it given a ticket over the dreamland route during the night. It is lucky for the fight game in the East that there are no Craigs. If there were, we would have no arena performances to speak of. Jennlnaa Kept Rimy.

During Hugh-ey Jennings' stay in Buffalo he wat kept pretty busy attending banquets, receptions showing that Hughey Is popular among the Buffalo fans. On Tuesday night he attended the banquet given in honor of Wally Schang and on Wednesday night he was thi guest of St. Patrick's club In Buffalo. At each function the Scranton citizen delivered a brief talk, his Schang address dealing with Echang's fine work in the series, while before the St. Patrick's club members Jennings spoke on the value of athletics.

Coach Edwards drilled several players in Tappin -place yesterday and feels sure the substitute will, hold his own. The game between Wyoming Semi nary and Blair Hall will be played this morning instead of the afternoon- This schedule is necessary 60 that the Blair Hall team can make train connections bringing them home before Sunday. Wyoming banks on using the Blair Hall game to develop the weak spots and thus give the coaches ample time to plug up the holes before the more important battles are to be played. St. John's High school team, of Pitts-ton, claims to be the football leader in the first class high schools of the two counties.

In five games St. John's has scored 152 points against 19 for their opponents. The only game lost by the Pittston boys was to Keystone and the Factoryville boys didn't put a score across until near the end of the fourth quarter. High school teams wishing games arc asked to write to Philip Higgins, manager. The team has an open date today.

Local interest is connected with the game iin Wilkes-Barre today. Harry Hillman plays the Rendham A. of this city. Hillman has an unusually heavy eleven this year but so far has not been very successful. On this account Rendham enters the game fairly confident, although they realize their opponents will have everything In their favor.

Some of the most important demands made by the players call for tne following: When a player is transferred he shall be transferred subject to all terms of his contract. That when a player is transferred he shall be informed in official form what club has a claim to him. Players who have been in the major league for twelve consecutive years are to get their outright releases. That before a player can be released to a smaller league every club having a standing above that league must waive on him.

The demands also ask for chances in the purchase and drafting rules. In all there are twenty grievances. Some of them will most likely be granted, but the most important ones aon stand much show, judging from statements of club owners. With the Bases Full Otis Johnson, of the Bingoes, received more free walks than any other batsman in the New York State league.
