PLAN TO DAM
THE THAMES
PARLIAMENT TO CONSIDER T.
METHOD OF ENABLING BOATS
TO DOCK EASILY AT LONDON.

LONDON, December Ga $25, 900, 900
scheme to dam the Thames at Graves
end, thus providing rocks capable of
accommodating the largest ships afloat,
will be considered by Parliament at it's
next session.
BY this means the difficulties of nav
igation at low tide, one of the chief
causes of the retrogression of London
as a port, might be overcome, and
ships drawing thirty-five feet of water
could proceed to London bridge at any
hour of the day or night, anchor any
where, lie alongside any wharf re-
naming always at the same level.
The dam would provide London with
a lake fifty-five miles long and a
quarter to a half mile broad, available
for pleasure traffic, boating, sailing
and fishing, which are rendered impos-
sible by the strong tides now sweeping
the river.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind, Oct. @.-The In
dian team returned from Ann Arbor in a bat
tered and bruised condition and last even
ing did not even come out for signal prac-
t;ce. knight, Aydeliotte. Hare and Smith
are all in a crippled condition and ii is
doubtful if they will be able to line up this
week. An effort is being made to get a
game for Friday of this week in order TO
further try out the offense. The team has
been on the defense In nearly all the games
this year and while it is not definitely
known how strong the offense is. il is feared
it will not be able TO carry the ball against
the strong defense Purdue has shown this
season.
The Indiana men who saw the Purdue
Illinois contest at Lafayette last Saturday
are loud in their praises of the Illinois
team. They think it was the unusual
strength of Illinois rather than any weak
ness on Purdue's part that made the game
so one sided The way the Purdue backs
skirted the Illinois ends in the first half
showed that Indiana has much to fear from
be made TO bolster up the Indiana ends who
have not shown any surprising form so far
this season. AT Michigan Ross was sew
eral times drawn in and the Wolverine rum
ner got around him for long gains, while
Aydellote played too high and was easily
pushed out of the play. The practice all
this week will be secret.

M'GOVERN WINS BATTLE
GIVEN THE DECISION IN FIFTEEN
ROUND FIGHT WITH BRIGGS.
In Early Rounds the Ex-Champion
Seemed to Have Lost His Cunning,
hut He Made a Good Finish.

BOSTON, Oct. 2o.-Terry McGovern,
former featherweight champion Of the world,
was given the decision over Jimmy Briggs.
Of Chelsea, tonight after a hard fifteen
round battle before the Criterian Athletic
Club. For ten rounds the ex-champion
seemed TO have lost his old-time cunning
and even a favorable decision for him
seemed doubtful Toward the end, however.
superior ring generalship told the story.
and he had the Chelsea boy completely at
his mercy. At the start McGovern invited
mitigating. rushing into clinches whenever
possible. but he Jared badly at this game
and received severe pummeling during the
early part OF the battle In the breakaway
also McGovern seemed weak and well-di-
rected blows in the fourth and ninth rounds
sent him TO the floor.
AT the end of the tenth, when IL seemed
that the ex-champion had an almost insur-
mountable handicap to overcome. he adopted
an open style of fighting and had everything
his own way until the end. Time after time
in every remaining round he attempted 20
land a knock out, but Briggs received them
without flinching and came back for more.
No less than twenty swings backed up
by every pound of strength I'm the ex-cham-
pions body found n lodging place on
Briggs's jaw during the last two rounds,
but not once did he so 10 the floor.
