HOME PRODUCT DANNY WEBSTER
LOOKS GOOD TO FIGHT FANDOM
Smiling Beauty Is Picked to Put Blinkers on Chicago Ring Prodigy
In Opening Session at Tom McCarey's Vernon Shed When
Turkey Day Comes 'Round-White Has Splendid Record
and Enough Snap with the Hand Cushions to Prove His
Right to an Entry Among the Headliners
String- a bet for me on the home product.
Tuesday afternoon was passed at the camp of one Daniel Web
ster, our own premier in the ranks of local featherweight boxers.
Yesterday afternoon we saw
( liarlie White, pride of Chicago,
go through a strenuous perform
ance in the training ring at Jack
Doyle's emporium, and after all
is said and done it looks . very
much like Daniel. Of course, all
horses do not run according to
their workouts, but if appear
ances hold good in the present in
stance Webster tickets will be
the ones to be cashed after the
boys finish their little set-to in
X' n McCarey's shed at Vernon
inksgiving afternoon,
"he Chicago lad is all his press
nt has said of him—and then
ew more. In his two years'
ring career the only time he took
the short end of things was when
a boy called Willie Gibbs came
along and pulled a little too much rough stuff. To be sure, Abie
Attell is credited with a decision, but any time Abie can't shade a
point it is because his opponent is in the heavyweight class.
White is a sinewy, muscular youth of about twenty-two sum
mers. His forte is quick action at close quarters. If you take his
legs, the Chicago lad hasn't enough to stock a back row chorus girl,
and his arms are also shy that stuff called muscle. But his shoulders
—they are good enough for a fairly healthy lightweight, and look
like they held enough in reserve to hand out the knockout drops
when the patient is well in hand.
As the big day of turkeys and pugs draws near the fight fans
are experiencing a delicious thrill of anticipation at the prospect in
hand. Even after the gloves have grown musty with age it will not
need a very long search in the fan brain to call back to mind what
is what and who is who in the shadow of the squared circle.
One thing the promoters may be assured of, and that is a taste
of the old slap-bang affairs will be better than cranberry sauce to the
ring dopesters, and the pantry can procure no lock of sufficient
strength to withstand the poundings of the persistent fans who "want
some more."

ASK RE-ELECTION
Young Politician, Who Last Year
Made Big Noise, Again in
Field for Office
CHICAGO, Nov. 16.— Chicago's golf
ing youngsters, rated as the best in tho
country, who made themselves conspic
uous at an annual Western Golf as
sociation meeting- last year for the first
time, when they suggested a now stylo
for the running oft of tournaments,
expect to be heard from in politics
again this year.
Tho young golfers are glad the nomi
nating committee was late in turning
j in its ticket, and now that tho field is
open, the youngsters are going to put
up an independent ticket.
Horace F. Smith, president, and C.
K. Willard, secretary, will he named
to succeed themselves on this ticket.
The affairs of tho W. G. A. were con
ducted better last year than ever be
fore, especially the tournaments, ac
cording to tho young men, and they aro
anxious that those men, who attended
and took care of nil the tournaments,
be turned to office as a mark of ap
preciation.
The oversight whereby the regular
; ticket was not announced to tho sec
retary until after November 1, leaves
I the association without a ticket to b«
voted on nt the annual election in
January. The ticket can be put up as
I ;in independent !' t by any five clubs
; of the organization, but If this is nnt
done, the Bent officers will hold
th' places for another year.
It i:- considered likely that five clubs
will approve the ticket and have It
up at the meeting, but tho youngsters
I feel it is no breach to put up a strong
ticket.
In the past It has been an unwrit
ten rule most, that the regular ticket
no through without opposition, but the
field Is now open and one ticket in of
ficially as regular as another.

RECLASSIFICATION
UNDER DISCUSSION
Cal Ewing Takes Stand to Force
Matters — Officers Are
Elected
CHICAGO, Nov. 16.—Th« board of arbitra
tion of the National Association of Profession
al Baseball leagues tonight gave bearing to
evidence bearing on reclassiflcation of leagues.
President Tierney of the Three I league,
whose membership In class B Is threatened,
made a fight to delay reclosslflcatlon, or to
instruct the board not to reduce the classifica
tion of leagues that may have fallen below
the population requirements.
Mr. Tierney admitted that his league lacked
about 25,000 persons of the population reulre«
for class B leagues. He finally secured the
adoption of a resolution recommending the
board to use every effort to obtain the con
sent of the national commission for the leagues
whose classification Is in jeopardy to retain
their present rating.
J. Cal Ewlnfr, member of the board from
California, brought the classification matter
squarely before the meeting, declaring that
efforts to dodge the issue were futile.
San Antonio, Tex., secured next year's meet-
Ing. Mr. Ewlng Invited the association to
hold its 1915 meeting at Ban Francisco during
the exposition. This was tentatively accepted.
While the status of both the Three I and
Western leagues is affected by the 1910 census,
It Is believed the old verbal agreement which
the latter had with the association will pro
tect Its Interests against a reduction In classi
fication. There is no disposition to question
the authenticity of this agreement.
The association adjourned until tomorrow
at 11 o'clock, but the board of arbitra
tion renewed its deliberations tonight.
SEXTON RE-ELECTED
M. 11. Sexton of Rock Island was re
elected president, and J. 11. Kan-ell of Au
burn N. V.. was made secretary of the
National Association of Professional Base
ball Leagues at the annual meeting today.
The class AA bugaboo was laid at rest in
the Eame meeting. Secretary Farrell was
named for ten years and his salary raised
to $5000 a year.
tO Class C and D leagues were given repre
sentation on the national board of arbi
tration, which was Increased to eight mem
bers throe to be chosen from class A
leagues, throe from those of class B and one
each from clnsa C and D.
President Patrick Powers of the Eastern
league, who arrived today on the fame
train that brought Manager McOraw of the
New York Nationals, announced that next
voar trouble could lie expected from his
league In regard to classification. Mr. Pow
ers said: . .
••I don't know whother I shall be head
of the Eastern league again, but I can say
to you that the Eastern has, as you know,
repudiate.l the ten-year agreement of the
association. That does not expire until next
year. ,
"Next year, however, I nm quite sura tho
ten-year agreement will not be subscribed
to unless it Is changed in the meantime to
give us higher classification We do not
want to bo a. major league, but we do
want a higher Mace.
"I can add, also, that In this tho Eastern
association is not 'In partnership' with the
American association, as has been sug
g The period at which protection must *°
secured and from which all yearly obliga
tions must data was changed 1 by vote of
today's meeting from October IB to Beptem.
Pan "Antonio, Tex., irringß some new method
each flay to call the association's attention to
tho Invitation that next year's mooting be
h-U there and today brought out 4ifl Mexican
straw sombreros, and the lobby of tho Con
<rress hotel soon took on the appearance of a
Mexican ratio. It is likely next year's meet
ing will follow the Texas boosters home,
At the afternoon session the board of arbi
tration of the National association was elected,
as follows: . „
William Knvnnaugh, Little Rorlt, Ark.; Tt.
N Carson South Bond. Ind.; T. H. Mumnno,

E. V. WELLER
Pomona and the University of Southern California at Claremont
in the finale of the conference football championship of Southern
California; Minnesota and Michigan at Ann Arbor, battling for the
title of the middle states, and Yale and Harvard m what will mean
the American football championship at New Haven, provides a day s
trio of title bringing contests which should gladden the hearts of the
American football fans of the country.
In the Claremont battle the odds are slightly in favor of the
Blue and White on account of their brilliant showing against the
demoralized Tiger team last Saturday at Baer field. The University;
of Southern California eleven, however, can always be counted upon
to evolve a wonderful defense and are strong In that point where
Oxy was fatally weak, the ends. Kicking will mean points in Sat
urday's meeting unless the dope scale is far to the bad and Hal Fail
lin's boot has an accuracy that has been fatal to one bunch of grid*
iron gladiators already.
Many of the prophets are looking forward to a fluke win. Clare
mont field has long been noted for this style of victory, and the vis
iting teams have come to feel a horror of the hoodoo which surrounds
the alumni arena. If a fluke is not forthcoming a draw would ba.
the next best bet, and then a 3 or 6 to 0 field goal score in the result.
Pomona has a fast team, Cromwell's eleven is steadier. That it will
prove the best fought game in the local calendar is foretold by all.
When Hurry Up Yost's famous scoring machine of Ann Arbor,
huskies trots on the field where Michigan has known no defeat there
will be a lingering doubt in the hearts of her supporters whether
the great speed producing coach has solved the mysteries of the new,
code sufficiently to withstand the crafty puzzle plays of Doc Wil
liams, the strategist of the western gridiron. One point of the linfl
the Michigan rooters will watch with desperation, the end positions.
If McGovern, the all-American quarter last year and a sure possessor
of the honor this year, gets away, the game is lost. The little Min
nesota captain has improved with this season's play and seems to
be imbued with Williams' subtle planning. His generalship is mar
velous and the Yost infants will do well to duplicate the Perm score
of last week, when the ball see-sawed across the center line without
a tally.
The interest of every fan, east and west, will be with the Crim
son and the Sons of Eli when they come together at New Haven,
Yale, with Walter Camp's most startling innovations of play at their
command, Coach Coy's careful counsel and a band of enthusiastic,
well-tried alumni trainers, may turn the trick, but the Crimson root
ers already are preparing to count the score. On their own field,
backed by an almost perfect record of victories, scored on only once,
and then through a fluke by an inferior team, Harvard's football
eleven is prepared to do or die. Seats to the big game are dearer
than radium, and the select few who will halve an opportunity ten
witness the match will undoubtedly be favored, as experts promise
the greatest battle of American football history.
