STATE COLLEGE. Oct. 2G. On a muddy field, Penn State defeated Gettysburg here todav. 25 to 0.

The condition of the field rendered spectacular playing an impossibility and nothing but line plunglna was used with anv avail. At the opening of the game. Langdon. after a 35-yard run for a touchdown, was called back, and later in the game a touchdown by Mauthe was called back. Two of State's touchdowns were made in the first quarter.

The heavy wind blowing and the condition of the field interfered with the forward passes. Only one forward pass, Mauthe to Wilson, was successful. Very, by an end run of 20 yards, made the first touchdown. All during the first quarter the ball surged back and forth in the mud until Mauthe. In three successive plunges, scored the second touchdown.

In the second period the only score was made when Hoar attempted to kick from behind his goal line. Wilson blocked the kick and Hoar recovered it, scoring a safety. In the third quarter, by a series of plunges, the ball was placed on Gettysburg's one-vard line. Hoar kicked to Langdon on the 35-yard line. From here Mauthe kicked a field goal.

The fourth quarter opened with an exchange of punts which netted State 20 yards. The ball again see-sawed back and forth until Kellar piunged through the center 12 yards for a touchdown. Poffinberger was a consistent ground grainer for Gettysburg and Hoar showed up well In his kicking and tackling. The lineup: STATE 25. GETTYSBURG 0.

Tuesday night of this weeK the boxing fans in Duquesne, Munhall and surrounding towns-will have the first opportunity to see their favorite boxer in action. Mike Milko. who for three years held the lightweight amateur title of western Pennsylvania, is booked to travel six rounds with Red Robinson in the main bout of the big show, which the Duquesne A.

C. will stage in Duquesne. Mike is without doubt the most popular boxer up the Monongahela valley at present. He is looked upon by his friends as unbeatable, and they predict mai witnm tne next year he will be heard from in boxing circles from coast to coast. Whether he will be or not, the fact remains that today he is rated prettv highly by local experts.

DurinK his three-year reign among the amateurs, he scored no less than 25 knockouts, many of them coming in the first round. He is a hard hitter and is shifty on his feet. One fight manager after seeing Milko in action stated that he looked more promising than any 13o-pound boxer around this section. Mike is stacking up against hard game right off the reel. He realizes more than anybody else that Robinson is a tough customer, and that one must step some to even hold him to a draw.

Milko isn't worrying. He says he has beaten more than one good boy and can beat another. The two principals have put in over 10 days of hard training and are just about in their best possible shape. The three preliminaries will bring together the following' boys: Billv Berger, of Homestead vs. Young Crouse, ot Duquesne; Jack.

Schaefer, of Pittsburgh, vs. Young Corbett, of Duquesne; Ray Parks, of Pittsburgh, vs. Kid Kelly of Duquesne. INTER-CITY BOXING SHOW FOR TOMORROW American Club to Stage First One of Season in Old City Hall. Jack McGulgan, the Eastern fistic promoter, who is behind the Philadelphia boxers booked to appear in the American club's inter-city show in Old City hall, tomorrow night, has wired that he will arrive today.

McGuigan declares that Young Xitchie, Young Malone and Frankie Conway, his proteges, are all in splendid condition and that they are dead i set on trimming their local adversaries, namelv, Red Kobmson, Al Grayber and Eddie Wimler. Xitchie has an ambition to become champion of the world. He never has been knocked out and during the past six months has won all his fights in a decisive manner. He is fast and clever and has the advantage of packing a healthy wallop. He saw Robinson in confident he can aeleat him.

Malone's last important tight was with Young Erne, this resulting in defeat for Yi-Yi. Since then Malone has been working easily with the idea of showing Pitts-burghers just how good he is. The fact that Grayber's manager believes tha Sheridan youth can defeat Buck Crouse would Indicate that Al is going some, too. Wimler, as is known, fights every minute he is in the ting. He Is much better than he was last season and his backer intends shoving him to the front w.th all possible speed.

Wimler can assimilate all sorts of punishment and he can hit a lick. too. The fourth bout will be taken care of by two good local boys, it being the Intention of Manager Tom Bodkin to make this show one of the banner events of the season.

Madole, i wno is a uig lavojuc nuu liid luvciD the game up there, appears to be the best bet, owing to his decisive victories scored in the past. However, the followers of the game do not overlook the ability of Rodgers Corcoran has brought Mickey to the front with rapid strides, and that he is one of the most likely looking 133-pound boys around here.

There will be three good preliminaries and a battle royal, in which five husky negroes will participate. SOPHS BEAT SEWICKLEY. The AVashington and Jefferson Sophomores defeated Sewlckley Y. St. C.

TVATHEY. Written Especially for The Post. Since Joe Rivers was so unkindly sidetracked from the lightweight championship race California promoters have been digging deep for a new entrant, a boxer who can be sent against Ad. Wol-gast and who can carry the confidence of the native Bons. The 133-pound title, according to the Californians, belongs to that neck of the woods.

All followers of the Poppy remember Jimmy Britt and assert that the crown now worn by Wol-gast has been loaned to Michigan and must be returned. Tom McCarey, James Coffroth and Eddie Graney, promoters of rank making their daily bread out of California dough, have scoured local fields in search of promising material. McCarey was mainly responsible for the rapid rise of Joe Rivers, having kept the Mexican before the public through consistent boosting and good fights, but Tom is dubious over Joe's chances since Mandot administered the beating. The San Francisco matchmakers have Wolgast signed for a Thanksgiving day affair, but they are not sure who the opponent will be. At first they figured on Rivers, but the Mandot victory put that fighter out of the reckoning.

Mandot has been considered, but the followers of the game want to see a native son against Wolgast and the promoters are seeking that kind of a man. It remained for Tom Jones, Wolgast's manager to open the eyes of the Pacific coast sports. After the promoters declared there was no California, boy with ability enough to give Wolgast's a Jones threw up his hands in mock despair and said that he was unwilling to believe that they are so short-sighted on the coast. Jones pointed out that there is a real native son, a boxer born and reared in the land of sunshine, who has the respect and admiration of every man in the profession and one who Wolgast considers the only dangerous foe in his division. RITCHIE LOOKS BEST.

Willie Ritchie, former Frisco automobile salesman, but now efficient ring general, is the man whom Jones is boosting and whom the coast experts seem to have overlooked. The gentlemanly little fellow, whose modesty possibly keeps him behind the scenes and out of press agent hands, is heralded in the East as the best 133-pounder sent from California since the time of Jimmy Britt. Jones is willing to matph Wnlsrasf anrt Ritchie for the Turk- I ey day argument, and it may be that Wolgast's" business adviser will land the bout for the modest boy. Ritchie was practically unknown a year ago. lie was considered a fair lighter around San Francisco and had several four-round bouts and a lew over the marathon distance, but he never showed anything that could be taken as remarkable.

When Packey Mci'ailand was in California training for his oout with Tommy Murphy, Ritchie acted as sparring partner for the Chicago boy and proved one of class. When Wolgast was afflicted with appendicitis and was forced to cancel his engagement with Freddie Welsh, the English champion, Ritchie was asked, with one day to prepare for a 20-round light, to take Wolgast's place. Ritchie jump'ed at the chance and gave Welsh a tough argument for the entire distance. This was the making of the 'Frisco auto handler, for he leagued himself with Mc-Farland and Emil Thiry, and came East. During his stop in this part of the globe he had seven battles within six weeks and won all with ease.

His best light was witn Young Erne in Philadelphia, where he took the place of McFar-land and gave the Quaker boy an unmerciful beating tor six rounds. Erne was considered one of the best short distance boys in the country, but he never had a chance with Ritchie. Failing to land a battle in New York, all of the Gotham lightweights giving him a wide berth, Ritchie went back home for a rest. He waded into the mountains and took things easy until last spring, when he was selected to try out Wolgast, in the champion's tirst bout after his op eration. A lour-round bout was put on i in 'Frisco and Ritchie had all the better of the going, dropping Wolgast once.

Notwithstanding all this struggle for I recognition, Ritchie has been unable to convince Frisco promoters that he is the logical opponent for Wolgast. He has been spoken of in complimentary terms on occasions, but has never Deen aoie to bring the fans around to his side. He has always been too backward to demand that recognition that he is entitled to, and there are none out there who care to present any honors unsolicited. With Rivers and Mandot matched for another meeting Thanksgiving day it looks as if San Francisco will have to give- Ritchie the battle with Wolgast. Jones and Wolgast are willins and Willie is pining for the set-to.

He thinks down in his heart that he can trim the champion and figures that it will be worth a lot in a financial way if he succeeds. Why the coast promoters should figure Mandot and Rivers ahead of Ritchie is hard to understand. Willie beat Mandot to a frazzle in New Orleans not long ago. He never met Rivers, but those who have seen both boys in action assert that the Mexican would be stopped in a few rounds were he to stack up against Rit chie. The former auto salesman needs a good booster more than anything else, and until he hooks up with a man conversant with the press agent yarns he never will be a leading light.

EASTERN BOYS STARRING. Wolgast and Mandot are billed to lock horns at New Orleans next month and this affair should prove nothing but a workout for the champion. It is to be a 10-round set-to with a decision, which should make it all the more easy for the Cadillac boy. Mandot is a good, clever boxer, but is not rugged enough to stand up to Wolgast. About the first rush that Wolgast makes will carry the Southerner off his feet.

New Orleans is all agog over the coming right, according to press dispatches. The followers of the game in the Louisiana city are ready to wager their all on the home boy and are buying tickets already, although the mill does not take place until November 4. The battlers should divide a big pile after the affair, no matter what kind of an argument is put up by the two. during the 40 minutes' work. While the coast promoters and experts have eliminated every lightweight from the possibles excepting the four mentioned, New York managers and producers are unwilling to concede as much Jack Britten, Matty Baldwin and Tommy Murphy are going along at a rapid pace lately and are receiving considerable backing from the Eeastern metropolis.

By L. C. MACPIIERSOX. JR. Look Out for Mickey.

yrHEN it comes to digging up raw boxing material and turning it Into a first-class article no one has anything on Billy Corcoran, veteran boxing promoter of this city. Billy, in the score of years in -which he ha3 been connected with the game, has handled dozens of good fighters, fighters who have made big money while they were in active service, but unfortunately failed to store much of it away. Last year Corcoran had no one under his management, but this year Billy has taken hold of a local boy who promises to make a name for himself in fistic circles. Billy says he's a coming champion. However, anyone who knows Bill is aware of the fact that every fighter he looks after is a coming champion.

Billy is not only a manager, but somewhat of a press agent combined. The boxer in question i3 none other than Mickey Rodgers, who hails from the Southside. Those who have watched Mickey perform in his recent ring engagements say he looks most promising for a recruit. They can't see him as a champion yet, but there are a few who believe some day Rodgers will be heard from among the top-notchers. Mickey has been fighting but two years, and is only 21 years old.

He looks the fighter from head to foot. jThere are some ring performers who -could be taken for young bank clerks or preacher's sons, but not Mickey. The facial expression worn by the Southside boy fits the ring to a Corcoran has always said that he would prefer a rugged miller to a dancing master if he was forced to make a choice. Billy surely has a rugged boy in Rodgers. His muscles stand out prominently, although he is not muscle bound like wrestlers.

Mickey is one of the few fighters around here who would like nothing better than to box two or three times a week. He doesn't care who he tackles, either, so long as they make 133 pounds. During the last five months Rodgers has participated in nearly a score of battles, and in only one did he receive the worst of the argument. In that case he was outweighed exactly 15 pounds. Corcoran is watching Mickey as carefully as if he was a million-dollar kid.

Every day sees the South-sider at his training quarters putting in two or three hours' work. He has come to the front with a bound and is today looked upon as one of the best men his weight in thi3 section. Mickey's next fight takes place tomorrow night when he meets Hughey Madole for 12 rounds at New Kensington. Will Draw Big House. S30NER or later Buck Crouse and Al Grayber are going to come together, and when they do the fans will witness a real scrap.

It will be a bitter battle from bell to bell, for there is ill feeling between the two. Since Buck broke away from his former manager, Grayber has been anxious to right him. Already one local club is after the bout, but Crouse is holding out, probably until the match is well worked up. We don't belieye that Grayber stands a chance with Crouse, provid- ing Buck enters the ring in condition, but Al may be able to stand up for the six rounds. He is a glutton for making punishment, and Buck might swing all night without putting him down.

Then there is the chance that Crouse would not be in shape.
