College and High School Football, Gossip of the Ring, Amateurs and Other Sports

TECH-MANUAL CLASH ON BILL FOR TOMORROW Big High School Game in City Series Looks Like Real Scrap. TECHNICAL HOPES HIGH With the btjf Technical-Manual grid battle only a day away the hoped of the supporters of the Green and White are soaring sky-high. Another real scrap seems to be on schedule In the second football game cf the city high school series, but from the looks of things now the east side team has the slight edge. Lots of pepper is being shown at Tech after holding Shortridge to a 0 to-0 tie. The morale of the team has improved remarkably since the return of Nipper and the shifting of Captain llungate to the back field. Nipper who has been out most of the season with a broke? hand will more than likely be seen at quarter back and will try his luck shooting a few passes. Things seem to be running along pretty smoothly with Coaclf Burgess' crew with the line perking up and the offense very much Improved by the new combination that is being used. Zollner Is going good at center and is counted upoq to show some stuff In the coming contest. The ends hare never caused any worry and are showing their usual good form. Woolgar Is playing the game that last season won him recognition as one of the best flank men in the city, and Hays and Asninal. who alternate at the other extremity, thoroughly know their lobs. There are no injuries to worry about and dummy scrimmage will bo the rule today along with some signal drill. If a winning spirit counts for anything It seems as though the Green and White have it. Dash and ginger seem to be the main constituents of the eleven. Tho whole school is solidly behind the team and rooting hard for a victory. INJURY JINX AT MANUAL. At Manual although the school is Just as much behind the squad as Tech there seems to be a feeling In the air that everything Is not Just as rosy as it should be. The Red and White team can not seem to get away from the injury Jinx that has been following It lately. After the disastrous Clinton defeat the Manual rooters are a bit down-hearted, although a Tech supporter would never suspect it if he wore around. The Southaiders will fight, there Is no doubt about that, but whether the determination to battle to the end will offset the Tech psychology of victory Is another question. Manual's back field seems to be in rather a crippled condition and this la surely not very encouraging. Summers. Stewart and Ilarmeson are none of them In good shape and whether they get into the game or not they will not be feeling like putting the dash into their play that Is so vitally necessary. Perhaps the condition of the Red and White has been exaggerated to some extent like most bear stories are, but there is surely some truth In It all. Manual rooters are sure that their team will win. They are backing them to the limit Tech is Just as sure. Tomorrow will tell the tale.

SHARKEY GETS TITLE CHANCE Meets Buff Tomorrow for Bantam Crown—Learns Lesson of Broadway. By HENRY L. FARRELL, NEW YORK, Nov. 9.—Broadway Is tho poorest training ground in the world. Even In these rather tame days, what is left of the old bright lights of the “gay white way” does not tend to condition an athlete. The “old timers" tell this, but the youngster does not always listen. The little bantam, Jack Sharkey, the most popular boxer in New York, didn’t listftn and he lost two great chance# for the'crown of the little fellows. Proving the exception to the old line about opportunity knocking only once, Sharkey gets his third big chance tomorrow night in Madison Square Garden, when he goes into ths ripg with Johnny Buff, holder of the'fly weight and bantamweight titles. Two years ago, Sharkey was Just one of those little fellows who can be found hanging around any gymnasium in any town. He had “some stuff,” but he never had a chance to get it out. Sharkey left New York and he wti never missed until he made his overnight Jump into fame—by beating Jimmy Wilde, the British fly-weight champion, out in Milwaukee, J KO.M “FIVE “BUCKS” TO *IO,OOO ATTRACTION. When he left his home town, Sharkey was a "five buck” sparring partner, when he came back he was a *IO,OOO attraction. His thrilling 15-round draw with Joe Lynch in the Garden is still remembered and the events that followed are still being held up as examples by managers with young prospects. Having more money that he ever dreamed of before, Sharkey hit Broadway. He liked the lights and he had a bunch of friends who liked to sit under the glare with him. The public demanded another SharkeyLynch go and It ended In a knockout of 9 sadly unconditioned boy. Lynch, the •victor and the clean liver, went out and got the .title. Sharkey could have had another bout with Lynch but Tex Rickard wanted him to prove himself. He failed to train for what he thought was a set up and he was again beaten by Roy Moore. The Broadway moral finally bifc him and he started training. He admitted that the "old timers” were right and he went back to work. His third chance for the title Is Just ns good as the other chances. All the other bantams have lieen clamoring for the first crack at Buff, but fate waa kind to him and he Is the lucky one.

SHOW VALUE OF ‘NEW’ GRID GAMS Notre Dame Demonstrates Effectiveness of Pass and Shifty Attack. By JACK VEIOCK. NEW YORK, Nov. 9—Football Is drifting away from the old-time mass play by degrees. The game, as it is played today, is about 50 per cent oldfashioned. The forward pass and a shifting attack developed to speedy openfield playing or the passing play' is the vogue. Notre Dame, one of the best football teams in the country, demonstrated the style of new play to a. queen’s taste in defeating Rutgers at the Polo Grounds. The fighting Irish do everything well on a gridiron. But they certainly show a marked contempt for straight footbaU. Rutgers, outclassed and without a chance to win, met the Hooslers on a fifty-fifty basis every time they resorted to the old line-smashing game. And Notre Dame did but little in the way of crashing the Scarlet forwards throughout the game. Ivnute Roekne, coach of the Notre Dame team, is a firm believer In the forward pass and the new style of play. “We have endeavored to develop the forward pass to a degree of perfection,” he said. “We have concentrated on it and we have found it the best groundgainer and by far more effective than the old style methods. The shift, too, is a great, thing. I'll admit that we lose lots of ground In the way of penalties on account of it, but I've found that we more than make up for the loss iff ground gained.” Charge Fraud in Awards - OMAHA, Nov. 9.—Charging fraud iai the award in an air trophy race for commercial planes of which he was the donor here Saturday, John M.
