Tuesday, November 25, had original! been set as the date for the tilt the.

decision to switch the date having been made during: a conference of the Bchool officials last evening. The school board has given its permission for the game. The decision of the school board to postpone the dedication of the Cami Curtin Junior High School led to thi change in the program. Tha dedication had originally been booked for Wednesday, November 26. No game h.is as yet been scheduled by the Tarsus eleven for next Saturday, but a number of communications have been sent out, and it is expected that arrangements for a tilt will concluded today or tomorrow.

MechanicsburKs representative Reports from the gunners who were afield yesterday in the quest of wild turkeys gave more favorable reports last night than had those who were out on the opening: day of the season, Saturday. Hundreds of gunners were out yesterday from this district; and at least 200 were killed within a radius of fifty miles from Harrisburg. Among the successful ones were Samuel Linard and two sons. Sandy Hill: Benjamin Baltazer, E. G.

Wertz and Jesse B. Anders, this city; Roy Howard, Dauphin; Earl Alleman, West Falrview, and J. E. Pelghtal, Steelton. Amoifg the open seasons which close with this month 4n Pennsylvania are those for the killing of blackbirds, pheasants, plover, yellowlegs, Jack or Wilson Snipe, qurtU, Virginia rail birds, ruffed grouse, fox, gray and black squirrels, wild turkeys and woodcock.

Wild turkeys cannot be billed in Allegheny, Armstrong, Bucks, Carbon, Chester, Clearfield, Jefferson, Lancaster. McKean and Somerset Counties, this State, until next year, 1920. Deer cannot be killed in Bucks County this year. Frank "Doughnuts' Wilsbach, fullback of the Camp Curtin Junior High School varsity eleven, and one of the best players on the Bquad of the uptown institution. Is lost to the team for Saturday's contest with Hlghspire High School at HlghBpire, and may not be able to play in the game with Edison next week.

He suffered a fracture of the thumb on his right hand ti Saturday's contest with Millersburg. Shrouder, who' has been substituting at fullback for Camp Curtin, has been showing- up well In practice, and will in all probability replace Wilsbach In this week's game. Wils-bach's value In the Edison contest Is realized, and every effort will be made to get him in shape for the big tilt. Wilsbach i a brother of the Tech star. 'Haps' Prank of the Technical High School eleven, is attain on tfie injured list, and is no likely to be able to play any more this season.

Frank, who suffered several torn ligaments in his leg in a game four weeks ago. Frank Moran's return to tha ring the other night In Pittsburgh, where he knocked out Jack Geyer in the eighth round, did not boost the -sorrel top's propaganda for a bout with Jack Demps Geyer, who is even a worse has-been than Moran, made Frank step some and' delivered some pretty hard wallops. Moran was slower than ever and very wild. It may be that Moran will get another apportunity at an early date to show his wares in New Jersey. He always is popular with boxing- followers and against some dub might prove a success.

But Moran's talk of fighting Dempsey should be stopped. Such a meeting would have to be preceded by the appointment of a Coroner's jury. Ray Archer, business manager of Jess Wlllard, on a recent visit to S'ew York declared that the former champion is so Intent on getting another match with Dempsey that he has played early In December. No definite arrangements have as yet been made for the tilt Steelton High School Is to meet Tech on the Inland grounds Thanksgiving Day This definitely announced this morning by Prof. Grubb, of Tech, following rumors to the effect that the game was to be called off.

Arrangements are already being made for the fray, and despite the apparent difference in the calibre of, the two organizations, there is reason to believe that there will be a good attendance. Steelton has been showing considerable Improvement in its games of the past few weeks, although the result of Saturday's tilt with Willlamsport High was somewhat a disappointment. This Saturday the Steelton players are booked to meet the Lebanon High School eleven at Lebanon. The two teams met earlier In the season at Steelton, and the battle was an unsually hard fought one. A duplication of this is expected this week, for Lebanon High has one of the best teams in years this season, and has established an excellent record.

The York High School eleven is booked to oppose the Harrisburg Academy team on the Academy grounds Saturday afternoon of this week. Coach Schllchter will conduct a practice of the Academy players this evening, and will keep after the players hard during the remainder of the week in order to put them in trim. of the men In shape for the final game. will no doubt resume his old place at left guard this week and his return will greatly strengthen the team. Beck, who took his place in the Cornell fame, gave a good account of himself.

There was ho football practice at Lebanon Valley College yesterday. The faculty proclaimed the day a holl-. day for celebration of the victory over Albright. Yesterday morning a mock funeral was held for Albright. Coach Strickler, however, announced that the regular workout will be given this evening, as a beginning of the preparation for the game with Delaware at Newark next Saturday.

This will be Lebanon Valley's final game. The Yale varsity lineup In signal drill indicated that the coaches will adhere rigidly to their plan of making no substitutions whatever In the coming game with Harvard from the list which opened the Princeton match. None of the first string" players appeared fine or overworked and the coaches plan to send them through a short scrimmage today and Wednes- The king desires to add to this day.

Brig- the young: Gettysburg- Colleg-e football player who suffered severe head Injuries In the Bucknell-Gettysburg game here Saturday, was able to leave the Harris-burg Hospital late yesterday aften noon for his home. Brings condition has Improved considerably, and it Is possible that he may be in shape to take part in the Thanksgiving Day frame between Gettysburg and Frank-in an4.Marshall. He was kicked on the Jaw. Lerew and Kelser, two other Gettysburg players, were also hurt Saturday, and are still suffering with their Injuries. Lerew is expected to get back in the practices within a few days, but Keiser will not be able to resume scrimmage before the latter part of the week.

Bucknell's squad came through the tilt in good order, only minor injuries being- suffered any of the players. The team will be in good shape for its contest with Dickinson at Carlisle on Saturday of this week, and will enter the tilt as keen favorites. P. and M. followers are a trifle worried over the probable chances of the varsity eleven against Gettysburg on Thanksgiving Day.

As there will be no game for the F. and M. team this week. Coach Dickson will start this evening in a determined effort to build up the backflelU. 'Kid' Rote's ninety yard run for a touchdown in Saturday contest of Lehigh demonstrates again that this wonderful young athlete has lost little if any of his adeptness on the gridiron.

Rote will undoubtedly be a big factor in the Lehigh-Lafayette game on Saturday, a contest that will be one of the most Important in the East. The Penn State g-rldders were given a complete rest yesterday. Coach Befc-dek deciding to call off all practice until today when work will begin In earnest for the Pitt game on Thanksgiving Day. The strain of the past three games with Pennsylvania. Lehigh and Cornell has been rather severe and Beadek believes that the men will be greatly benefited by the lay off.

The extra day of rest gave Bill Martin more time to work with the cripples and he hopes to have all A definite decision concerning whether or not the Methodist club will be represented by a basketball team during the coming season is to be made at a meeting of the organization members scheduled to be held this evening in the parlors of the olub, located in the Fifth Street Methodist Church Building. Plans for a team have been discussed for some time, but the enthusiasm has not been as keen as It might be, and for this reason the meeting tonight will be In the form of a booster session. Apprentice boys in the employ of the Pennsylvania railroad are showing good form In basketball workouts conducted during the past week. Scheduled practices are being conducted in the Motive Power Gymnasium, and a large squad of candidates reported last night, when more than an liour was spent In scrimmage work. A practice of he members of the Harrisburg- Independent squad is scheduled for this evening at the P.

A. gymnasium. The players showed considerable improvement in their work last Saturday over that in previous tilts, and should be able to make a strong right against the Pittston team here Saturday night. Beckman, of DeNerl, Is the leading scorer in the Eastern Basketball League, with a total of 44 points to his credit in four games. Of these, 15 were scored from the four line.

Franckle, of Germantown, is next, with 34 points. 'Big Hoss' HaSgerty, the former Harrisburg: Independent center, now with the Reading team, has tallierd 13 points In the four league games to date, twelve through field goals, and one from the foul line. The first workout of candidates for the P. R. Y.

M. C. A. representative basketball team was conducted last night in the Association gymnasium, fifteen members turning out. More than an hour was spent in scrimmage.

Among the most promising of the candidates was Frank Peters, who is trying out for a forward position. The Hershey Elans, of Hershey, are about to begin their basketball season. The players average 18 years of age and weigh 130 pounds. The manager of any basketball team desiring to arrange a game is requested to communicate with Alex Magrlnl, of Hershey. football team Is In the field for a game for Thanksgiving Day, to be played In Meehanlcsburg.

Bob Cannefax, New York, was second and the title will probably be taken by one of them. The tournament closed tomorrow night. McCourt went into the lead by winning two games yesterday, one from Jess Lean and one rrom Charlie Otis. McCourt has still two games to play Cannefax won his game with Otto Reiselt. Chinasro.

The season will last for 15 days, and only male deer with horns two Inches above the hair can be lawfully killed. The limit will be one a season, with six to one camp or body of men.

Reports indicate that there are quite a few deer in the mountain sections. Ray Howard, of Dauphin, claims the record for one of the most lucky shots of the season. Howard was shooting at a mark when he saw a wild turkey 800 yards away. A snap shot brought down the bird by severing Its head. Millersburg' High School's eleven is to met the Ellzabethvllle High School team on Saturday at Ellzabeth-ville, and on Thanksgiving Day afternoon at Millersburg.

On November 20 the High School will oppose Millersburg at Millersburg. To date the Millersburg High School team has won two and lost three started in Saturday's tilt at Greens-burg, although his injury had not fully recovered. He had not been in. the tilt very long before his leg went back on him, and he was forced to drop out of the lineup before the conclusion of the first half. Frank got back in again for a few minutes in the third quarter, but could nots tand the strain, and had to retire for good.

He had the Injured leg examined by a physician last night, and was advised not to play this week. His participation in next week's contest all depends upon the extent- of Improvement shown until that time. Coach Smith has not yet decided how he will start the lineup Saturday, but It is probable that the Ellinger-Comfort shift will be used again with Frank out Garrett although his work In Saturday's game at Greensburg was of the conservative variety. Is to be credited with the breaking up of two forward pass plays whfch would have likely resulted In scores against Tech. One he Intercepted, and the other he knocked down.

Tech had not yet scheduld a contest for Saturday of this week at noon today. Communications have been addressed to the managements of the State College Freshmen, U. of Pittsburgh Freshmen, Erie High School and the Marine Preparatory School, of Washington. As yet no favorable answer has been received from any of the four. The representative football teams of the Fostorla, Ohio School, the Erie High School and the Buffalo, N.

The Junior match was to bo between Howard Eldridge and Jack Bent The doubles finals started training in anticipation ot a bout with the new title holder before the Winter closes.

Wlllard is said to realize that he made a serious blunder in his method of preparation, for the Toledo combat and is of the opinion that with different training methods he would be able to give a much better account of himself. In order to receive public indorsement for a return to the ring Wlllard would be compelled to do more than change his system of training. He would be required to get into the ring with some of the men beaten by Dempsey and prove that he was in condition to fight Knockout Bren-nan would be an excellent chap for Willard to practice on, and If the, Kansan beat Brennan in quick time, the former circus man might be accepted as an opponent of the present champion in another contest When Dempsey made his appearance in New Orleans, where many noted ring battles have been fought, the champion made a deep impression on the boxing enthusiasts of the Crescent City, Here Is what ono critic said of the title holder: "The crown that Dempsey wears gives him no more trouble in the toting than it developed in the winning. Neither In speech nor bearing would he arouse in the mind of the uninformed the suspicion that he was any sort of a king. He has a ready handshake, a nod and a pleasant salutation for every one, converses willingly on any subject, but studiously shuns mention of his own successes within the ropes, at the same time conveying the impression that he hankers for the day when he will aguin climb through the ropea to wage earnest battle." Jack Dempsey, world's heavyweight champion, will not engage in a ring contest before March, Jack Kearns, the title holder's manager announced a few days agd in Chicago.

The champion will be engaged until that time li making a moving picture. Dempsey finished his circus engagement in Little Rock, Tuesday. Take this for what it's worth: James J. Corbett declares that in seven years he is going to return to the ring and take on a clever youngster In his teens. The former champion announces that he wants to prove that a 60-year-old man doesn't need the much discussed "gland treatment" to keep -young.

Although both men are natives of St. Paul, Gibbons for some Inexplicable reason Is the favorite son, and will carry the hopes of a majority of those in the arena. Gibbons appears to exercise a mesmeric influence over the boxing enthusiasts of the West, probably due to the fact that he has so easily outboxed a majority of the long list of mediocre opponents he has met in the ring.

In spite of the Impression that Gibbons is a wonderful boxer the record of his victories does not contain' the name of a middleweight of the first rank. Although Gibbons began box-ins: in 1908, at a time when Ketchel was In his prime as title holder; yet the Ghost studiously avoided a match with the champion. After Ketchel's death in 1910 Frank Klaus Bet sail for the title, beat a majority of American contenders, and then clinched his right to the championship In 1912 by stopping Billy Papke, a rival claimant, and Georges Carpen-tier, the middleweight champion of Europe. O'ltawd Ranted Title by Knockent George Chip won the title from Klaus by knockout and McCoy won from chip by knockout. O'Dowd knocked out McCoy, showing1 conclusively that the championship descended to O'Dowd in a legitimate manner.

Yet the amazingly stupid assertion has been made that O'Dowd's claim to the title will not be firmly established till he has beaten Gibbons! As Gibbons never defeated any middleweight with a remote claim to the championship and never met any man holding the title, it is dlfnoult to understand on what ground he and his admirers ask recognition for him. O'Dowd's middleweight championship will not be affected unless Gibbons scores a knockout, which is a remote possibility. If either man Is stopped Inside the limit of ten rounds it is more likely to be Gibbons. It will require all of Gibbons' vaunted skill to keep his Jaw away from the valorous O'Dowd. and while It Is not unlikely that, if the bout goes the limit, the home guard will declare Gibbons the winner on points, yet fiere Is small doubt O'Dowd will carry the battle to his opponent.

O'Dowd is a rugged chap and can assimlliate punishment with a grin. It is questionable If Gibbons can take a punch. O'Dowd, is Is reported, is to get $15,000 as his share of the receipts. There are 34 rounds of boxing scheduled for Joe Barrett's Olympia A. A.
