Plans for the proposed tournament open to professional golfers within a radius of 100 miles of Chicago have been dropped because of the number of players who have loft the city. Tom Bendelow, who was in charge of the arrangements, made elTorts to get the players to enter, but decided that the interest was not sufficient for a tournament this year. The object of the tournament, which will be held sext year, is to get the "pros" in trim for the western and national open championships each year. In the past few years Chicago players have never finished better than third or fourth. The reason for this, the players sav is that they do not get sufficient tournament play. . In the east the professionals have several tournaments during the season and when time comes for title play they are in condition to meet not only

but the bJJ was brought hack, as the referee blew his whistle before the j ball was put into play. Both teams were penalized a number of times for offside plays and although hurdling was noticeable among the Rensselaer players, the offense was passed up unnoticed. Hammond kicked off to Rensselaer, who was forced to punt after the battering squad held for three downs. Battering Rensselaer's line, Hammond took the ball in a steady march within Rensselaer's 10-yard line. The ball was lost on a forward pass and Hanly of Rensselaer broke away for a 65yftrd run. ' The Rensselaer umpire was in the line of scrimmage and Interfered with a number of Hammond players. An argument followed and Rensselaer was given half the distance. Rensselarr was again forced to punt and time was called with the ball In Hammond's possession. Rensselaer opened the second quarter wth a pretty 25-yard forward pass, but lost the ball on downs. After battling back and forth, Hirsch broke away on a trick play, making a sensational 45-yard run and taking the ball within 15 yards of Rensselaer's goal.

From then on Hammond made another steady march down the field, taking the pigskin within Rensselaer's 20-yard line. On a fake play Lawson made a spectacular run and after slipping away from the clutches of four of Rensselaer's players, scored a touchdown. Hess missed goal. Score. 13 to 0. Game was called with the ball in Rensselaer's possession. In the closing session Hammond made another spurt and took the ball to the center of the field. They were forced to punt.

The ball was put Into play, but time was called In 14 seconds. Hammond's team worked like clockwork throughout the game and each individual played a stellar game. Hirsch, Hens and Rwert loomed up prominently. Kwert tore through the
line and time and again was a big
ground gainer for Hammond. Hirsch and Hess also made consistent gains. Mette was severely handicapped with a sprained ankle. Lawson was a sur-

There's a lot of things going to get the so-called and ' x-ariously abused "test" in Milwaukee tonight. Jess Wtllard gets his tryout In this territory that he has chosen as his headquarters; Boer Rodel gets his chance against the biggest man in pugilism and the Wisconsin boxing commission and Wisconsin itself will get an opportun.ty to discover whether or not they like the heavyweight encounters. It will be the first battle under the commission in which the contestants have scaled more than 158 pounds. Middleweights have heretofore been the biggest performers In the Badger state. And, more than that, It will be one of the few heavyweight battles that have ever taken place in Wisconsin. Even the fans who have been going to bouts for years in the metropolis of the commonwealth to our north will be few who have ever seen big
fellows In action. Wisconsin Js es-

Doc White, veteran pitcher, is through with the White Sox. Yesterday White and Hap Hogan, manager of the Venice (Cal.), club, came to terms, and a contract will be signed during the next few days. Hogan had been given permission by Comiskey to talk business with White, the left-hander having informed Commy that he would like to break into some imnor league where he would some day become a manager. Hogan called on White Saturday, but terms were not agreed upon. Yesterday the Pacific coast mogul met White's terms. Doc will appear
in the capacity of player during the 191 season only. In 1915 he will be given the active management of the club. Last night White wired Comiskey and Callahan telling them that he and Hogan had agreed upon terms. He will probably get word some time today to go ahead and sign the contract. When Doc White moves to the Pacific coast he will take with him the well wishes of thousands of baseball fans. Not only has '"tVhite been a popular idol here in Chicago, but throughout the entire American league he hag been one of the most popular players the game has ever known.

He confidently avers that he'll stop the South African champion. His 230 pounds and enormous reach Is going to make him look awfully good to the spectators when he climbs Into the ring and stands alongside the slight Rodel. But the Boer Is tough.

Milwaukee fans are assured therefore, that If the Boer hits the canvas for the ten-count It will be a pile driver wallop that puts him there. - A good card of big men has been arranged for the prelims. Steamboat Bill Scott and Al Worgin, middleweights, 'will appear In the semi. In the second bout Young Pinkey and Gene Kugler, 148-pounders, will appear. The opener will be between Len Rowlands and Barney Grlffen, welterweights.
KICKERS HOLD STAGE l!l EAST'S FIMl BATTLES Coach Campbell Declares Touchdowns Will Be Few in Saturday's Game.
Boston, Nov. 17. The results of Saturday's games put a crimp In the most conservative hopes of followers of both Harvard and Princeton. Yale showed a vastly superior team to the Tigers in all departments except punting, and, although the score was a tie, Princeton may thank Hobey Baker and the plucky little Law that Yale did not pull out a victory. Dartmouth, a prominent contender for the championship, was put out of the running by the wily Indians, and Harvard had an easy time with Brown. The Princeton-Yale game was the most important of Saturday's contests, especially since it brings the real Ell strength to light. Yale has been
through a rather disastrous season and deserves great credit for the way in which the team pulled together against Princeton. It was the first time this year that the Blue coaches have been able to put their strongest rush line in the game and the effect was remarkable. Captain Ketcham deserves credit for leading his team to a virtual victory in spite of greatXdds.

This is wholly uncalled for, except in the neglected cases, where they have become exceedingly large and even the large ones can be bettered and often saved from the operation.

The high team surprised the Techs as early in the season the Techs won over the high by a score of 27 to 0. but Saturday the Emerson boys retaliated and fought hard and held the Techs to a tie.
