SCHAEFEK DEFEATS COXTI.
New York, Dec. 9. Jake Schaefer,
world's 18.2 balkiine billiard champion,
yesterday won the two linal blocks of
las 3,200-poin.t match with Roger Conti,
of France, 400 to 219 and 400 to 142.
Schafer's ' grand total for the eight
blocks was 3,017 and Contios 2,100.
New York, pec 9. (By the Associa
ted Prass) Intercollegiate football, the
greatest of oil varsity sports, reached
unprecedented heights of popularity
during the season just closed. Yet,
with the 1922 season virtually ten
months away, there is every indication
that noxt year football will surpass. in
attendance, popularity and gate re
ceipts the record-breaking figures of
1921.-
This forecast is based on the num
ber of intersi-etional games already
arranged, as well as others, the nego
tiations for which have not reached
the stage permitting of a definite an
nouncement. International or intersec
tional sport contests have long been
recognized as the index or keynote to
the popularity of any given sport.
The number of games will surpass
those of any past season. In 1921,
some 15 inter sectional games were play
ed in the East alone. Already an i
equal number have been scheduled for
1922, and only a few Eastern colleges
have completed their lists.
The climax will be reached in 1922
if one or more Pacific Coast college
combinations decide to follow in the
footsteps of their crew and track teams
and come East. Such an invasion is
far from being improbable, although
negotiations have not reached the point
where such a contest can be scheduled.
New York, Dec. 9. Six teams were
tied for the leadership in the annual
six day bicycle race in Madison Square
Garden at 8 a. m. today, the one hun

There was no change in the relative

hour s 2,051 miles and five laps, made
seven years ago by Fogler and Hill.
