Carlisle Goes Through Season
Without Even a Fractured Bone
Texas Bali Moguls Meet at Dallas Dec. 16 to Consider President Allen and a
Schedule.
AS A negation of the criticisms
aimed at the present gridiron
game comes the announcement
that not a. single bone was fractured
during the immensely successful foot-
ball season of Carlisle college. The
Indians played 44 youths at practice all
through the season the first eleven had
a ecnedule of 12 games; the reserves
eight games and the third team one
game. In all the season the only inju-
ries the Redskins sustained were tem-
porary sprains; only two had hospital
records and these were .limited to 24
hours and 60 hours respectively.
Two days before Christmas the Dakota-Minnesota
collegiate football con-
ference will be held in Grand Forks
North Dakota. The problems that the
wise ones will tackle will be - the one
year residence rule and professional
baseball contracts.
Tom Longboat the famous Indian
Ms rath on runner is about to make his
debut in the ring at Toronto. Long-
boat fats been practicing for some
months with the mite and his friends
say he has developed into a clever
boxer. He will weigh 150 pounds. If
he can make as good with the mits as
he did with racing Toronto fight fan
should have some good sport in store
for them
Harry Forbes the "come back" cnam-
pion of the bantam class sprang an in-
novation on the fight fans in New Or-
leans whle training for his recent
bont with Eddie O'Keefe. When Forbes
came out to do his sparring he had his
eyes protected by motor goggles.
Forbes is wise to the danger of being
handicapped by an injured optic and so
he wears the goggles in his sparring
practice bouts lest any of his partners
might rip in an unsuspected blow.
Manager McGraw does not have any
too good an opinion of indoor training
for baseball. The veteran slugger says
that the outdoor exercise is worth more
than any amount of practice on an In-
door diamond even if it has a dirt
floor.
In the entire past season Paddy Liv-
ing stem of the Athletics did not have
a singles passed ball in the 2( game?
that he caught. How's that for a rec-
ord? Most of the big football teams have
elected the men who will captain them
for the season of 1813. West Point has
chosen Devoe. who did such good work
at tackle. The NaTy has Rodes full-
back; Pendleton who played at half
back will pilot Princeton; -Spalding
also halfback has bean putyat the Yale
head; Thorpe halfback for Carlisle;
Bennett guard will captain Dartmouth
and Connolly the Amherst team.
The Texas league magnates will gath-
er in Dallas December 16 to adopt a
schedule and accept president Wilbur
Allen's resignation. Some of the mag
nates are wining xo allow president
the part of Mr Allen. Also for the
second time of recent date the Texas
moguls will squabble and quibble over
a schedule for 1912. They say that
Doak Roberts the expert schedullst.
"a a bunch of his handwork ready and
that he will pass them around at the
exnieeting and that all will be re-
Next season winds up Tv Cobb's
three year contract w4th the Detroit
club which called for $27000. It Is
needless to say that Cobb will demand
and most likely receive a substantial
increase when he signs his next agree-
---- .. .m um Aiders. it ie
believed that should he demand $S0060
lor the next three years there is hardly
a. chance of his being refused. That
ilgure appears enormous to be surft
yet when it Is compared with the sala-
ries of other players who are ordinary
ana cannot be considered in the same
Class with Cobb it does not appear that
he would be entitled to this money Of
course much depends on what sort of a
showing Cobb makes next season.

"AVHITXEY BROS.' Q.UARTET.
Whitney brothers' quartet opened the
eerles of entertainments which the Wo-
man's clnb has arranged for El Paso
this season and it was an auspicious
opening from several viewpoints. The
audience was a large one the enter
tainment was a good one and the pa-
trons of the course appeared highly
pleased. During the season the club Is
to present the Mme. LeBrun Grand
Opera company Opie Reed in humorous
recitals John Spargo a Socialistic lec-
turer and Judge Ben Lindsey the fa-
mous "friend of the boys" of Denver.
If the other attractions are up to the
standard of the opening number the
club will have cause for congratulation
upon the success of its season's work.
Whitney brothers are real brothers
sons of a former minister and they all
have splendid voices while Edwin M.
is a reader of exceptional ability.
The program offered by the four
brothers included an assortment of
folk songs of several nations choice
selections from modern German and
American composers and rollicking
sailor songs while for encores they
sang fqr the most part humorous little
ditties that made the audience laugh
and shout for more The readings of
Edwin-alternated between pathetic and
humorous and were splendidly given.
The first two numbers by the quar
tet were "Awake My Love" and "Elfin
Calls Tn the Woods" examples of the
modern German school of composition.
"Darest Thou Now O Soul" a poem
bv Walt Whitman set to music by G.
W. Chadwick. considered by many as
the foremost American composer 'was
the third number on the regular pro-
gram for the quartet following the
first reading by Edwin M. Whitney.
Yale B. Whitney followed with a solo
by Tosti entitled "The Venetian." and
responded to an encore with another
very pretty election.
''Strike the Lyre." an old English
composition typical of the English
songs of 100 years ago written by
Thomas Cook was next sung by the
quartet and several encores one on
soothinsr svrun and another on break
fast food made the audience laugh as
well as applaud the sweet voices of the
four singers.
"The Bandillero" a Spanish song by
Stuart was next sung as a solo by
Yale Whitney and for an encore he
eang a rollicking song of sailors and
the sea.
Then the quartet san; three typical
fnlV sonsrs. "Drink to Me With Thine
Eyes" an old English production writ- f
ten by Ben Jonnson in is ine araiu
of the Valley" an Austrian melody and
"The Bonnie Brier Bush" one of the
prettiest of the many pretty Scotch
compositions of the old days.
Edwin Whitney then read a very
clever little selection entitled "Pro and
Con" In which a young wan argues
with himself as to whether he shall
marry or not and for an encore he
gave eome facts about himself and hla
brothers and their families in a hu-
morous manner.
"Grace Be Unto You" a sacred e-
lecrkm closed the entertainment
The bouse was filled and all the
boxes were occupied officers of the
Woman's club principally having seats
in the boxes. Tt was a very successful
evening's entertainment and an auspl-
oious opening for the series.
