Booked to Meet Stiff Opposi tion in Pennsylvania, Cornell. Army and Williams. New York, Aug. 30.—Not since 1903, when Columbia's football team opposed Princeton, Yale. Cornell and the Cniversity of Pennsylvania, has the Blue and White teen called upon to face opposition as formidable as that which will be met during the coming campaign. Lor the Lion eleven, to he under the tutelage of Percy D. Haughton for the second successive season. Is scheduler! to face five of the leading teams In the east. The battle with the Cniversity of Pennsylvania wiU he the Blue and White's llrst test of the year, jut.* l as it was a year ago. the two teams being slated to clash at Franklin field, Philadelphia, on October 18. Last season the Red and Blue won, 19 to 7. scoring two of Its touchdowns In the first five minutes of play on long runs, hut being completely out played in the last,half. Cornell, Columbia's great rival, ha* been swamping the Lion sine* grid iron relations were resumed In 1920, but the Blue and White feels con vinced that Gil Doble s big red Jug gernaut will get Its closest rsll of the last three years. In 1920 the Ithacans started to ston* for their three setbacks In a row at the hands of Columbia In 1903, 1904 and 1905, by walloping the locals, 34 to 7. The following year the trounring was a little more complete, the final count being 41 to 7, but It remained for ('apt. Kddle Katv's eleven to give the Blue and White It*’worst drub bing since Princeton won by sn 85 to 0 score In 1890. The final tally of the Comelt-Columbla gam* In 1922 was 58 to 0, With Percy Haughton In charge of a squad of young play ers, most of whom were only sopho mores, Columbia managed to rut 21 points off the 1922 score last year. With a season's work In the Haughton methods under their belts and Cor nell minus ths services of George Pfann, Frank Sundstrom and Floyd Ramsey, the Blue end White plsyers figure they can make trouble for the up staters. In addition to meeting Penn anil Cornell, Columbia will find that Army, .Syracuse and Williams are not opponents to lw> trifled with. The Cadets are slated* lo supply the rivalry at West Point on November 15, when the two learns come to gether for the first time since 1899. Columbia won that first gains, 18 to I), end does not particularly fear Army this yesr In spite of the pres ence of many college stars cm the Plains. Syracuse, to tar met at the Polo ground* on Thanksgiving day, I* not a new opponent for the Lions, al though It ha* not been met for some time. In 1902, the two teams drew at 8 8 *t Columbia field, but In thelt previous meeting Jn 1901, ths Orange was returned vlcloi by It to o at ths Polo ground* gWAW - I gs jJlZAMa mm I Malacka ! 4 fcU-t---A—... NO FEAR OF RISKING CROWNS IS SHOWN BY BANTAM OR FLYWEIGHT KINGS WHEN ARTICLES SIGNED Pancho \ ilia Meets Frankie Genaro at Brooklyn and Abe Goldstein Clashes With Tommy Ryan at Long Island City—The Two Battles Open Fall Campaign Which Brings Champions to the Front rancho Villa, world's flyweight | champion, and Abe Goldstein, king of the bantams, can no longer be ac cused of refusing to risk their crowns In pugilistic encounters with worthy foes. These mites of the padded mit ten fraternity will engage In 15-round decLsion fights this week, which are the most Important battles In their respective divisions since they mount ed the throne. Villa will meet Frankie Germrn, American champion, who has j camped on the trail of the Filipino flash for a year, in Brooklyn Thure day night. Goldstein will face Tommy Ryan, twice his conqueror, in Long Island City Tuesday night. These bouts uncork the fall boxing cam paign in the enst, which will bring champions Into action and will he featured by that all important hattle between Harry Wills, ths "brown panther" fiWm New Orleans, and Luis Angel Flrpo, the Argentine hulk, to determine which Is to fight Jack Dempsey for the hghest honor In boxing—the heavyweight chain, lonshlp of the universe. It was a surprise to every one con- | versant with boxing when these title holders agreed to meet the opponents named here, and especially when Villa consented to a fight w-lth Gen- j oro. It look a big sum to lure the | bronze-skinned nthlete from Uncle Sam's possession in tile far Pacific Inin the ring with the man who lift ed lhe Ariieilcan title from his brow back In 1923, Holds Decision Over Villa Villa has managed to defeat every other flyweight In the game. He won the worlds title front Jimmy Wilde, a celebrated Fnglleh boxer. June 19. 1923. Just three months prior to that time Villa had boxed Genero In New Yorlc and the little Italian was given the decision after fifteen terrific rounds. That was the second bout In which they had engaged. In 1922 Villa slopped Johnny Huff and took the American title The same pear he fought Genaro 15 rounds and was awarded the verdict, which was not at all popular with the rtngnldera. Since his victory over Wilde. Villa has turned a deaf ear to promoter* who have tried to iqatch him with tlenuro heeause lie did not relish the idea of entering the ring with a man who heat him by a safe margin ■ year ago and Is apt to do It again. But the Brooklyn promoters offered him such s handsome sum for the performance that he could not refu*e, especially In view of the fact that the boxing commission of tlifl Umpire stale had passed the word slnng to the Filipino that h* would he ex peeled to meet Monaco In the fall. Like Gardner's t see. There Is no question bul that Villa is a far better audience pleaser and a more popular champion than the Italian, but he may not beat him. He is faster, more scientific with his maulers snd a better puncher, but the aggressive style of Genaro, together with his ability to administer body punishment, has enabled him to win in their former battles. The case of Villa and Genaro Is much like those of other champions In the past who found certain fight ers they could not beat. In the old days Jimmy Gardner could heat every middleweight he met except llarry Lewis. lie could beat fighters who whipped Lewis, but he couldn't beat Lewis. Harry had ‘something on him." Tha.t is the case with Genaro He has appeared to have "it on" Villa. For this reason the champion will not he a favorite In the betting when they crawl through the hemped circle In Brooklyn Tuesday night for the Mg clash, the most Important In the flyweight ranks since Villa knocked out Wilde in eeven rounds In 1323. Ryan Dangerous Boier. Should the Filipino win the decision over Genaro he will put the Malian out of the running for a time, and there la not another man In the class who has a chance to whip Villa. He will occupy a position In the fly weight division similar to that of Benny I^eonard in the lightweight sertion. Leonard has gone along for 'ears at the head of his Haas because he hasn't any serious opposition. Lillie has been henrd of Tommy Ryan of McKeesport, Pa., except in a section not fnr from his home city Where Ryan's ring exploits hnremnde him a highly popular fistic enter tainer. Ryan has not hen pushed to the front for lark of proper publicity, but he Is one of the best In the bantnmweltfht class. Goldstein, who won the crown from Joe Lynch, Mnrch 21, 1324. hna been In the gntne five years anil has been one of the most active mlttmen dm Ing that period, lie has met almost everyone who comes In at his weight, 'khe chances sre the little Hebrew from New Vink’s east side, ■ mild have found an easier opponent than Ryan even for a championship eu counter In Long Island City, but Ryan Is the man promoters selected and It was up to Goldstein to take t lie bout or lose a large slxed purse of fared for It, Miller* Purchase Inficldcr Waterloo, Aug 30. Short Slop Stu*rt Clarke, San Francisco, of the Waterloo cllih which has cinched the Mississippi Valley league pennant, has been sold to the Minneapolis club of the American association. He will report In the spring. From Texas cornea a stable which promises to be prominent among the contenders at the Ak SarBen fall race meeting September 9 to 27. That of P. L. Fuller. Fuller Is a newcomer at the Ak Sar-Ben track but he, nevertheless, 1-s a welcome one. Other tracks have known of him during the few years that he has been Interested In the horse racing game and they have all known him favorably. • Oown In Texas there Is another Fuller, a man who has bred and raced thoroughbreds for years. This other Fuller Is up on his stuff and has an enviable reputation. But he has no citlclsm to make of P. B. P. B. Fuller owns t>8 sections of land not far from Snyder, Tex. There he "runs" s few "rows"—3,non head or more—raises polo ponies and thor oughbreds. The polo nonles are said to lie good. He has none of them at the track. The nearest thing to s polo pony In his stable la a little 2-year-old. Thla horse has never started and may be trained for polo. But moat of his "boarders" are real, hangup race horaes. Standing in stall next to KJnward, handsome stud, is Firecracker, a horse In which many hopes are placed. Fire cracker raced laat winter at New Orleans and made a creditable show ing. Then the train which w«a carry lng him to new fields to conquor was wrecked and Firecracker goffered some inJOrles from which he may never recover. When the train crashed hire : cracker was thrown against the e nd I of the car and the other horses in the car with him were thrown on top of him. Ho suffered a broken tall and a severe injury to his back. Now locomotor ataxia three tens. It may lie averted and Firecracker may again take his place at the head of a field of runners. But now he stand* in hi* stall, receiving the l>est of care, waiting for the time of that possi bility to come. But Firecracker is the only cripple in the string ami the colt Is the only thoroughbred not trained to face the barrier. There is one filly, Collie Tokolon. a gi^nddaughter of the great Toko lon. I.tke her grandmother she has the lines of speed and the eyes of a \lctor. If she live* up to her looks and to her breeding she will he a horse to be heard from in the future. Malacha is another horse that shows a great deal of promise. There may not lie the maiks of speed In his make up that there is in some others hut he looks good and acts better when he is on the track for sn early morning workout. Douglas H. Johnson. Nlaxam. Nancy JVinnett, all are ready to do their share toward turning glory toward the stock farm of the Texas breeder. They all look good and If the employment of a trainer who knows the value of kindness toward animals means anything ahout the judgment of an owner then Fuller Will eventually he a lea ling figure of the turf.

Whereas Luis takes his steak and meat dally. Harry's special training dish is cream cheese. Harry eats lit tle meat and no steaks or beef un til the day of a fight. Firpo is taking his training fairly easy just now, working gradually more and more up to the fight, he says. Wills has done 30 odd days of hard work until he has got himself in shape to enter a ring today, so he has let up In order not to go stale. Wills eats only two meals a day; Firpo the regulation three. Will* jogs eight miles a day through heavy sand along the beach. Firpo does bpt five miles of road work and not much running. Instead of punching a heavy bag Wills pulls on a rowing machine. Wills Gaining Weight. And while Firpo is losing weight Wills finds the harder he works the more he gains! Luis has lost eight pounds. Harry has gained 14, now weighing 224. one pound more than Firpo says he weighs. . * In one respect only do Wills's train ing ideas agree with Firpo's. Harry thinks that every man should train himself according to his own individ ual requirements. This is the idea which the Finnish athletes gave to the American Olympic athletes. Therefore, both Wilis and Firpo are |their own trainers. "Of course these big professional trainers know their business and more about training athletes than I do,” Wills admitted. "But I figure I've been In the game long enough now to know just what it takes to get me in condition. I don't think they could help me any. While a trainer can tell a man's condition on the outside by looking at him. he don't know how the man feels on the inside. Some days that eight miles along the beach doesn't bother me at all and I can box five of six rounds and work all afternoon and never feci It. But other times I know that I'nj just wearing out my energy Inside, and nobody but me knows It." Wills Arena Indoors. Wills' boxing arena is indoors, on the former dance floor of Jones' O sino, a hotel restaurant owned and operated by a well known Southamp ton character, William H. Jones. Wills lives in a cottage, furnished bv Jones, a few feet down the bear it from the Casino, with his wife, tw-> sparring partners and a cook. Harrv says he chose this place to train In order to avoid big crowds of specta tors. He says he t»n't train playing to the gallery. And yet from *0 to JO persons, many of them fashionable and wealthy people from the South ampton summer resort, visit him daily. Wills never looked In better con dition; he is In better shape than he fore his fight with Madden. He said he gets up at t every morning for his road work, and doesn't eat till 10 Then It's fruit, hominy or cereal of some kind, ham and eggs and whole wheat bread without butter most of the the time, accompanied by his fa vorlte dish, cream cheese with sugar and sweet cream over it. His work in the ring come# from 3 to 4. shadow boxing, rope-jumping, five or six rounds with his two spar ring partners, and gymnastic exor cises afterward on the mat. At 5.30 p. m. he eat* his big meal, lamb or pork with plenty of vegetables and whole wheat bread. Believes in Cream Cheese. “Cream cheese." he said, “Is the best training stuff In the world. I learned that from my mother In New Orleans. She send* me the cheese mold and I make my own. I get the beat cream from Mr. Jones; let It stand until It gets thick, then pour it In the perforated mold so that tbs w hey runs oft and leaves the cheese. I.et me show you," and Harry got up to get the mold. St. Joe Team to Be Kept here It Is St Joseph.
