FRANK L. CHANGE SIGNED TO MANAGE BOSTON AMERICANS

NEW YORK, Dec. 12. Frank I Chance, ex-manager of the Chicago Nationals and the New York Americans, signed a contract Monday to manage the Boston American league club during the season of 1923. Official announcement of the deal was made by H. H. Frazee, president of the Red Sox, from the New York office. Details of the terms involved were not released by Frazee and Chance. President Frazee stated that Chance's salary would compare favorably with those of the highest paid managers in baseball. The engagement of Chance marked the first step in the reconstruction of the Red Sox. according to the Boston owner. Every effort will be made to strengthen the team by trade and purchase in order to make it a factor in the future pennant race. Chance will

have full authority and control in re

building the Boston team. Chance Popular Player

Chance was one of the most popular personalities in the game. As first

baseman and "peerless leader" a decade or more ago of the famous Chi cago Cubs National league champi

ons four times and world's champions

twice Chance established a brilliant reputation not only as a player but

as a field general and strategist. Aft

rr 15 years with the Cubs, eight of

them as manager. Chance severed his Chicago connection in 1912, with the

intention of retiring to his California

orange grove, but was persuaded to take over the managership of the New

York Yankees under a three year con

tract, reputed to have called for an

annual figure of $40,000. He piloted

the team to seventh place in 1913, but

in 1914, when the Yankees finished

sixth, he resigned a month before the

close of the season because of disa greement with owners over team pol

icles-and dissatisfaction with the con

duct of several star players.

Chance's interest in the national game, however, has not waned since he left its active ranks and reports have been current at various times

tnat he intended a "comeback' as a

major league manager.

EAR! HAM FIVE READY

FOR DENTALS FRIDAY

Earl hum's basketball schedule will open with the Indiana Dental college five on the Coliseum floor Friday night as the first game of the evening. High school meets Fishers in the second game. The Dental five has already played several games this season and are primed to give the Quakers a hard fight in the latter team's opening game. For the first time Coach Mowe will not be able to be with the team in its first encounter. Coach Mowe. i3 to undergo an operation which will keep him away until after the Christmas holidays. However the men have had some pood work so far this season and will be in good shape for the first game. The team will make a short trip north at the beginning of the Christmas holidays to play North Manchester and Huntinpton college on Dec.

Mowe Is fast dispensing .with the fun

damentals and is drilling the many new players in the Quaker system of

play. The two guard positions left vacant by Beasley and Goar are developing healthy competition among the new comers. Greene, who played back-guard for Richmond high last year is showing good form under the basket. Hatfield, star for Fountain City last year, is being groomed lor the floor guard position. However, either Capt. Hadley, Hinshaw or Lane, forwards, may be shifted to this position. Forwards Show Up Hugh Wallace and O. Monger are being worked at the forward position and seem to have the edge on the other new men. In all probability the center position will again be held down by George Townsend, lanky pivot man of last year's varsity. W. Huff, who was a member of the squad

in 1920-'21, L. Stafford and R. Huff of

last year's team are showing well in

the early workouts. Other men who

are showing good stuff and will likely

get a chance to show their speed are: Gilbert and Schumaker, centers; back guard ; and Huntsman and T. Raiford, forwards.

By FRANK G. MKNKB ' Pennsy must be reckoned with

future football years. For a decade, its record in the gridiron world has been pathetic. Teams thjkt couldn't beat anything or anybody else found no trouble in conquering the

Pennsylvania squad. Three years ago John W. Heisman coast in. an effort to lift Stanford betook one look at the material he took a second and then groaned. There was a reason. "It's the worst looking squad I've seen . in my career as a coach," he said. "It will be three years, at least, before Pennsylvania can be put back on the football map." At the end of Heisman's first season

at Pennsy there was a clamor for his official head. The team he had put together had played terrible football

uust as Heisman had predicted. Folks f the athletic committee, fussy, crit

ical, "old gradB" and others, blamed it all on Heisman not on the material. They were the same men who had made life miserable for other Pennsy coaches. But their howl for the dismissal of Heisman was stilled by wiser heads. "Give Heisman a chance," they said. Sign Up Heisman So Heisman was signed up to a new contract. It was for three or five years long enough anyway to permit Heisman to install his system completely; long enougfi for him to demonstrate his greatness. His team in 1921 was a bit better than 1920 just enough so to be mildly encouraging. And then came 1922. At last Pennsy had a team not preat.

not wonderful, but it was one better by

far tnan Pennsy has had in a dozen years. . ' Whatever it achieved was due in the main to Heisman's wizardry as coach. It was the inspiration. of Heisman. the

teaching of Heisman which made men of mediocre natural ability play wonderful football again and again through the year. x The Heisman Bystem is now completely installed at Pennsy. Its best plaiyers of 1922 will be among those present in 1923. The gaps which graduation makes will be filled with youngsters, who playing in freshman games, have had the benefit of Heisman's teaching. Pennsylvania, once possesed of the greatest football elevens in the land, seems due to return in 1923 anff 1924 to the heights of glory and fame it knew in the long gone years.

ed wonders at Cornell and then made Pittsburgh one of the truly greats in the football world, is going out to the overtures to Warner, and Warner, yond the heights now dominated by California. Rugby was the only game they .played on the Pacific slope until a few years ago. Then they decided to go in for the real American football game. Andy Smith, an assistant coach at Pittsburgh, was elected to the job as California's coach. Smith performed wonders. The fame that was California's portion as a result of its gridiron triumphs made Stanford a bit jealous. It determined to surpass California. So it made

Yale's all in a froth again.

borne of the nabobs are in favor of retaining Tad Jones as coach, insisting that the failares of 1921 and 1922 were due to lack of good material the way they put it. tem. - Others snail out the sentiment that Jones is more or less of a ham as a coach that his lack of real ability to teach nulled the native greatness of many Yale players. They claim that with anyone other than Jones coaching

some of the players of 1921 and 1922 would have ben developed into All-

Amerlcan stars. ' "But with Jones teaching them they've become All-American dubs" is theway they put it. Once upon a time Columbia sent forth elevens which ranked among the most wonderful and most powerful in all the land. They used to play Yale, Harvard, Princeton and similar gangs in those days and they used to pulverize 'em. Sixteen or seventeen years ago, when the game was in wobbly condition, owing to such a multitude of injuries and deaths due to mass formation plays, Columbia's rulers decided that football should be abandoned. Game Not Permitted And from then on until 1913. the

game was not permitted at Columbia, j But in that year the ban was lifted, j For several seasons Columbia elevens! were permitted to play against "minor j league" elevens. Eventually its desire ,

for more worlds to conquer led it to stiffen its schedule. And now Columbia Is face to face with a new era In football. ' Its old c6ach, who never was ranked as a wonder, was given his clearance papers at the end of 1922. He left behind him some splendid material; men

who, if tutored by some great teacher, might nyike Columbia great and famous again in football reals. All that Columbia needs is that

coach. It's racing along the highways and the byways hunting for him now. If it finds him then Columbia may take

its place among the- lofty pinnacles ;Qf the footballing univerfce. '- ' ' (Copyright 1!21 ny Kins Fetre. Sysdleate, lac.) -
