- New York, Dec ll-Princeton and

accept the offer of the Bears to come
to Nassau for a football game, but
;tbe only date upon which the Pacific
Coast players could come here was No-
Vmhr 111 It f nnnn ihja Qtti.1iiF
that the Tigers will entertain Harvard
at Princeton, and there was. of course,
no thought of relinquishing this annual
engagement.
;,. It was understood that California
has more than the Princeton iron de
fense, but it is not. likely that the
other available number of the "big
three" will be involved, because Yale

game before the Princeton contest.

may be made. Colgate has agreed to

Dr. Wilce, the Ohio State coach. Is

Fistic Gossip
By Falrplay
N
EW YORK. Dec 11. PhA Krug; the
J ersey middleweight. did not - a-et
any the best Of the negotiations lead
ing up to an agreement to figtit
Mickey Walker, welterweight cham
pion, in Newark on December 18. He
agreed to make 155 pounds at "2
o'clock on the afternoon of the fight.
This may weaken Phil :a bit and make
him less dangerous for the champion
than might a otherwise be the case.
On the other hand a diet consisting of
a couple, of packages of nails, a .two
pound dumb-bell and a handful of
brass doorknobs may pull Phil back
to his normal middleweight heft in the
hours between 2 o'clock and the time
of the fight.
When It comes to -oratory give us
two managers each of whom is trying
to hang something over on the other.
For once they are the center of at
traction while the fighters hang upon
the outskirts of the excited group ab
solutely dazed by the flood of words
gushing from the lips of the men
whom they support by their fistic
efforts. The managers .of Krug and
Walker spouted two days and two
nights before they finally signed the
first agreement.
"Gee," said Walker, after the muss
had been Bettled and he went out to
take the air, "if I could fight as good
as these can talk I'd take on Jack
Dempsey tomorrow and fight him with
one hand tied."
Jim Tracey is now seeking ' relaxa
tion among the bright lights of Broad
way after his Argentine experience.
Why this so-called champion of Aus
tralia is traveling so far to take it
on the ear when he could have got
bumped off just as quickly here is
not quite clear. Shortly he Is going
to take another jump, this time to,
London, where he will offer up his
Jaw as a target for Joe Beckett's
right.
Tracey says that Firpo has grown
heavier and now fights at 240 pounds.
And he is fast at the weight, says Jim.
Hit! When he walloped me In our
fight it was an hour before I knew
whether Buenos Aires meant a city
or a brand of codfish.
Don't make any mistake about that
coming bout between Bill Brennan
and Floyd Johnson. It will be a
hummer. And If Floyd wins Jack
Dempsey will no longer be in a posi
tion to say that there are no contend
ers in the world for his honors. Bren
nan is no world-beater, but any fighter
that beats him convincingly has class.
No one except Dempsey has been able
to turn the trick to date. Looks as
if Floyd was being put ahead Just a
bit too fast
Charlie Weinert of New York is still
a local drawing- card, as witness the
announcement he will meet Jack Her
man this month. But he is through
as a Madison Square Garden hero. A
sad example of a man with great nat
urla gifts who never took him seri
ously until it was too late. Who is
the guy that said that experience is
the ivy that grows around a ruin?
Where do they get this Charlie-White-Ritchie
Mitchell stuff? Ritchie
has been a has-been for two years
now. Still the fans will bite for this
battle as apparently they will bite for
anything that the promoters pull.
Improvement Is
Noted in Batting
In National Set
GENERAL improvement in batting
is revealed in the National league
during the 1922 season, j although the
number of .300 hitters lit 1921 was 58
against 53 for the past season.
With the exception of Hornsby, al
most a new race of batting kings came
into power in 1922.
Among the first 20 in this year's roll
of honor, Emil Meusel. the Giant out
fielder, was the only one who did not
do better than his 1921 average. He
fell down only slightly, however, from
.343 to .330.
Casey Stengel, the rejuvenated or
phan of the National league, was one
of the biggest sensations of the year.
Working as a regular with the Giants
he jumped his average from .284 to
.368.
Fonseca, the Cincinnati In fielder,
hepped from .276 to -SSI. but . he is a
young player and" his improvement was
more to be expected. Another young;
Ster who came fast was Cotton Tierrey,
the Pirate infielder, who hopped his
average from .298 to .345.
The following table shows what im
provement was made during the first
20 batters:

Among the newcomers, Rebel Russell.
the old pitcher, who came back to out
field for the Pirates, rapped for the
good average of .368 and landed in
second place.
Hack Miller, the huge Chicago out
fielder, was seventh with .351. and
Harper, the young Cincinnati out
fielder was among the select with .339.
. . .

1921 fell off during the past I season
and dropped down considerably In the
standing. Among those who had a bad
season were ;

Red Pitchers
Rank Highest
In National
By Wettbrook Pegier
t'aited News Staff Correspondent.
NEW YORK. Dec. 11. Hidden away
iiv-a gallery of figures, as long as
an hour in church, there is now pre
sented the" secret of Cincinnati, (he. rid
dle, of the Reds, the question of how
Pat Moran performed the prodigy of
finishing second In the National league
last summer.
It may be recalled, but probably
won't be. that Patrick, two seasons re
moved from a world championship, was
cenceded an outside chance to finish in
first division, and a much better chance
to wind up in the excavation of eighth
position. Heinle -Groh was no longer
signing lunch count at Garry Herr
manns cost, and neither was Eddie
Roush nor Dutch Reuther. of the team
that won the 1919 pennant and re
ceived the world series on a toss.
Moran had some of his old hands
left him, but the season of. 1922 was to
have been a time of humility and sor
row. -
Now the pitching records of the Na
tional league reveal that three of Pat's
pitchers rank one. two and three as to
games won and lost, one of them being
a rookie of whom the' rubicund boss
expected little in the springtime, and
not very much of that.
THREE STAR PITCHERS
Pete Donahue, No. 1 pitcher in the
National league, in his first season out,
came with a contribution of 18 vic
tories to "the total which put the Reds
in second place. The gentleman In
upper two, is Eppa Rixey, who won
25, and the third person, singular. If
you insist, is Johnny " Couch, the re
cruit John won 16 games. Donahue
loBt 9, for an average of .667. Rixey
lost 13 for .658, and Couch 9 for .640.
LCQUE MELANCHOLY OSE
Somewhat abaft these able and for
tunate three is melancholy Senor Luque
of Havana, who received no assistance
from his luck all year and lost 23
ball games, more than any other pitcher
lost in all the league, while winning 13,
for the loose average of .361. However,
to estimate the sort of ball that Senor
Luque was throwing, one burrows Into
the final column of the table on the
right hand Bide and there discovers
that Adolpho stands but -fifth from
the top in the matter of average earned
runs per game. Luque was an earnest
workman with the Reds, so conscienti
ous that he quit the club just before
midsummer and was all for going back
to Cuba because he thought he could
never win any more ball games, how
ever well he 'pitched. Mr. Moran
cheered him with the thought that
"your luck is never so bad but that
it may get worse," and Adolpho, In
credulous, stayed to find out.
RYAN LATE BRIDEGROOM
Rosy Ryan, late bridegroom, of the
Giants, stands at the top of the Na
tional league column on the reckoning
of average runs per game with 3.00.
Donahue is second, allowing 3.12. John
Morrison of the Pirates worked Him
self up a rating of seventh in this
respect and eighth in regard to games
won and lost, having 17 winnings and
11 whippings.
Grover Alexander won 16, lost 13 and
gave 3.62 earned runs to the game.
And over here in the handy com
pendium of odd and useless informa
tion is a nugget of solid coal concern
ing Jacques Fournier. the first base
man of Branch Rickey's 'Cardinals.
Somewhere at some reckless moment
of Rickey's administration. Fournier
strayed to the mound and pitcned one
inning to finish a game. The record
draws a veil of merciful secrecy over
the further details of Jacques aberra

As a result of a 2 to 1 victory over

day afternoon the Kerns United outfit
captured third place in the race for the
1922-23 championship of the Portland
Soccer Football association. The match
was for four points instead of the cus
tomary two and it was the final en
gagement of the campaign for the
hardware men. The Kerns equad has
two more engagements on the schedule,
both against the Macleays. who are
out to tie the Camerons for the title.
The first score of the game was re
corded by Manager Bill Bragg of
Kerns on a penalty kick about five
minutes after the opening whistle.
George- Muirden added the winning
marker late in the second half after
the Honeyman players had .rushed the
ball past the Kerns goalie with the
equalizer. Each team played with nine
men on a side, but this did not pre
vent an exciting game. -
A meeting of the association will
bo held tonight in the Central library

two-game series between Kerns and
Macleays. The field and officials wUl

ADAMS01VS ADVENTURES
1$.. . i ',
Collins and
Kerr Sought
By Yankees
By Ths. L. Camniikey
Universal Serrire Sporting Editor
NEW YORK. Dec. 11. Coincident
with Manager Miller Huggins ar
rival in New York was a report that he
had lost his false top tier the lower
being his own and the as yet unveri
fied report that Eddie Collins and pos
sibly Dickey Kerr, holdout on the
White Sox. would come to the Yanks.
It developed that Huggins, quizzed
about the proposed deal, was speech
less, or nearly so. By the time the
American league owners convene in
annual meeting here on Wednesday,
however, it Is expected that he will
have either his lost teeth or a new
set. Then, something may come out
about the Co1lins-Kerr deal.
TO GIVE FOUR PLAYERS
The beet rumors on the -deal Involve
Aaron Ward, second baseman of the
Yanks, Carl Mays, the submarine
pitcher, - Boy Meusel, outfielder, and
Elmer Smith, sub-outfielder, as prob
able wearers of the White Sox uni
forms next season.
That is. two and possibly three of
them are likely to figure in the trans
action.
The Yank manager, a victim of In
ner strife, to-wit : Trouble with sev
eral players last season, in which the
Giants cleaned up, seems to be em
powered to do quite a lot of building
up and casting away.
Despite his missing teeth. Huggins
manages to say that the Yanks were
looking for an infielder an outfielder
and a pitcher. His interviewer then
put up the Collins-Kerr rumor, and
as he did not deny it, nor affirm it, it
was taken something might happend
as rumored.
SEEK ST. PAUL CATCHER
It is also known that the Yanks
have been considering sthe purchase of
Mike Gonsales, ex -Giant from St. Paul.
Minnesota climate seems to agree with
Miguel. With Schang and Hoffman,
and a promising newcomer, Ben Gough
of Buffalo, to take "care of catching,
the impression exists that Gonzales
would be bought solely to figure In
a trade with a club needing a receiver.
And, of course, having something to
offer, it follows, too, that the Collins-
Kerr deal probably will not be the
only one. Other club owners may
have or may. decide to have some
thins to offer. Colonels Ruppert and
Huston are "paying colonels" you
know, and as they are going to open
their new 75.000 capacity Yankee park
in the spring, they may open up the
cash box again.
MAJOR LEAGUERS TO CONSIDER
' BASE OP TRANSFER OF STARS
By Joha B. Foster
4 Copyright. 1922.) V
New York, Dec 11 It has been
agreed by a certain set 'of clubs in
the American .and National leagues
that some restrictions wiU have to
be placed on the transfer of players
from one club to another of the same
league after the playing season starts.
At a conference of men identified with
the National league held here over the
week-end to discuss that problem, and
while no definite action was taken it
is probable that June 1 will be fixed
by the National league as the last day
on wheih inter-club deals can be made.'
Many of the magnates In favor of
the restriction of the time in which
players 'may be purchased from one
club by another club favor placing the
limit at May 15 and. two or three are
bold enough to advocate naming the,
first day of the playing season, but
whether they are strong -enough In
their various 'leagues to carry their
ideas Into effect ,i a question and
this was' the reason for the recent
conference;
If the season Of 1923 begins on April
19, as it may. the June 1". limit' will
give club managers 12 days in April
and Jl' in" May ein which to figure out
the chances of thelr players. After
that they would have to go to the
end of the season constituted as they
were on that date so far as help from
other clubs of their own league is
concerned. , ..
The meeting of the National league
will begin Tuesday and this matter
perhaps will be the most prominent
to be brought before 'ft unless it is
diplomatically . . sidetracked. , However.
June 1 sounds entirely probable for sv
National league' inter-club trade limit
date. It la possible the American
league will follow suit although the
matter rails for individual and. not
joint actloo. '

" Nunes Is no slouch in the ring and
his bard training indicates that he's
going to enter the squared circle pre-
pared to give Kramer the best he pos
sesses. All ef which means that the

around in a" lively., fashion. .
