Princeton and Yale Meeting This Week-End Excites Eastern Fandom

Trade Talk Is Involving Three Vets Sisler, Blue and Judge May Figure in Deals This Winter. By NEA Service NEW YORK, Nov. B.—lt would occasion no great surprise in major league circles if before many weeks have passed, three star first base-

men of the American League were to figure in trades. George Sisler, a few years back considered greatest guardian of initial sacks in the history of the game, probably has played in a St. Louis Browns’ uniform for the last time. Owner Phil Ball has said he thinks it best that Sisler go, and that settles it.

Sisler

It is a well know fact that Manager George Moriarty of the Tigers is far from satisfied with the showing of Lu Blue during the past season. Expected to star for Moriarty, Blue was displaced a goodly part of the season by his substitute, Johnny Neun. While Joe Judge had a good year for Washington last season and is still a great player, the impression prevails that he would like a change of scenery and that he probably would go better elsewhere.

Great Elevens to Tangle in New Haven Bowl/Saturday. FORWARD WALL BATTLE Caldwell Expected to Be Outstanding Back. BY FRANK GETTY United Press Sports Editor NEW YORK, Nov. B.—Not even in the days when “Big Three” football was at the height of its glory—the days of Ted Coy, Sam White and, later, of the fighting Callahan brothers—did Yale and Princeton send better or better-matched teams to their annual combat than the elevens which will meet in New Haven Saturday. Unquestionably, the championship of the East lies between the two, and there is equal lack of doub that since the war no greater teams have worn the deep blue of Yale and the orange and black of Princeton. Ranked on Parity Until Saturday, Princeton was considered an untried team. Now, it must be ranked on a parity with Yale, which already has proven its football greatness in the fierce test of three major games. Princeton’s victory over Ohio State was convincing in the extreme. The Tiger line is matched in strength, agility and aggressiveness only by that of the Bulldog, as far as eastern football is concerned. The game in Yale bowl should be one of the greatest exhibitions of line play ever seen in modern football. Mighty Struggle So often, in football, line play is overlooked and attention concentrated upon the performances of the back field stars. At Yale bowl Saturday, there will be witnessed one of the finest struggles between two mighty sets of forwards. Bruce Caldwell probably will prove the outstanding back field star of the game, although it is certain that all this week Bill Roper will be teaching his Tigers ways and means to dispose of the Eli backfield ace. Eddie Wittmer is the most versatile of Princeton’s ball carriers, but Miles and Norman are great line-breakers, and Baruch a heady quarterback. The game probably will resolve itself into a contest in which Yale will try to make the most of Caldwell, and Princeton the most of its opportunities. STAR IS OUT FOR GOOD Harry Edelson, U. of Southern California Full, Unable to Play. Bu United Press LOS ANGELES, Nov. B.—Harry Edelson, star fullback at the U. of Southern California, probably will not be able to play football again this year, his physician announced today. Cartilages in his knee injured in the California game, have not responded to treatment, it was said. MOTION PICTURES

Tex’s Hope Fades for Heavy Title Battle With International Flavor

Heeney and Paulino Rated Weak Possibilities and Another Gene-Jack Go Appears Certain.

Bu United Press CHICAGO, Nov. B.—lt is conceded that a heavyweight bout with international flavor would be the biggest drawing card which Tex Rickard could stage at present. There are several possibilities, which Rickard might take advantage of to draw dollars through the gates, but they are poor possibilities Tom Heeney from the Antipodes and Senor Pauline Uzendum from Spain make up part of the list, and neither of the two is anything to rave about. That the international angle is a boost to gate receipts was well demonstrated hy the Dempsey-Carpentier and Dempsey-Firpo fights. The for-

Performance of Colt Is Feature Rapfast, a bay colt, son of Tramfast (2X, 2:1214 and Mattie Custer, 2, terminated Monday at the State Fairground track what is claimed to be a world’s record for the establishment of records at two { aits by a yearling. Rapfast, driven by Alex Wisehart, Monday trotted the mile in 2:2714. On Oct. 18 the colt took a record of 2:2314 at the par l : Official records are not barrel, of performances at both gaits, but are rare where a colt or filly performs at both in the same year. TRAINING CAMPS Texas is making its annual bid for consideration as a training site for major league clubs. The New York Giants, Boston Braves and St. Louis Cardinals are being “rushed” by the Lone Star domain, and the Detroit Tigers have already selected San Antonio.

mer drew about $1,600,000 and the latter slightly in excess of a million. Rickard may be figuring on one of these men. Heeney in all preliminary tests in this country has stood the work standing up and is rated fair. Senor Uzcudun has made an impressive showing. But one thing Is certain and that is he hasn't the color which took Firpo to a fight with Dempsey. s However, it is just possible that none of the two foreigners will make a good enough showing for a bout with the champion. In this event the country probably will hear again the old familiar ballyhoo for a Dempsey-Tunney return match. And many persons still believe Jack and Gene will draw more money through the gates than any other two fighters who can be put in the same ring.

letters in each of three sports—football, basketball and baseball. His natural playing position in football is at end. Because of the fact that Tulane had really great ends in Gamble and Wilson his first two years on the squad, Browne was used elsewhere mostly. Last year he

Wilson Claimed as Cubs 9 Star Bu United Press CHICAGO, Nov. B.— While the Chicago Cubs rode the crest of the National League during the 1927 season, baseball writers were wont to refer to them as the “club without a star.” Chicago fans protest at that remark. They want to konw why Hack Wilson, the stocky Cub outfielder who makes a specialty of hitting home-runs, isn’t considered a star. They point out Hack cracked o ,t something like thirty home runs during the past season and that he is one of the most consistent fielding outfielders in the game. For many years Wilson swung <f sledge-hammer. Perhaps that accounts for his queer build. Few men have a larger chest. His arms are short, but in strength they have few parallels. He is stocky, a few inches over five feet in height. LIKES GREEN MEN Bill Roper. Princeton coach, likes green men on his team as he says such men will do as they are told
