self.

Chicago, Oct. 2o.-Young Corbett is
on the trail Of Joe Cans. Corbett says
he has regained his old-time fighting
powers, and believes he stands an ex-
cellent chance Of defeating the title
holder. He is under a challenge Of
ferlng to meet the colored wonder I'M
der any reasonable conditions.
Corbet said today: 81 know Cans is
great, but from what I have heard
about the fight with Nelson, I think I
would have a chance to beat him, and
it is a chance worth taking. I'm al
ways willing to gamble, and a fight
with Cans looks like a good longshot
to me, feeling as good as I do now.
IT would prefer Cans, and will offer
to bet $4,000 on myself and have the
purse split 1926, or any way he wants
It. That 8 a goo ID sporting proposition.
The only thing I would want. would be
a fight at 1873 pounds, ringside. If I
can't get Cans, I'll take Britt, pre-
ferred next to Cans, Nelson, Herrera or

Madison, Oct. 20-The Wisconsin
football team won from North Dakota
on Randall field today by the score Of
10 to 0. Soukup, the fast little right
halfback, who made the touchdown for
Wisconsin had one of bis legs broken
in the second half. He comes from
Sturgeon Bay, Wis, and was one of the
best men on the team. Messmer made
a drop kick from the 30-yard line a
few minutes before the game was
called.
The injury to Soukup was the most
serious that has ever occurred on Ran:
broken as he fell after rough tackle
by Bannon, T. Comey and Bell. He
was attempting the same double pass
play by which he made the touchdown
few minutes earlier.
AS soon as the seriousness of his in
Jury was discovered he was hurriedly
taken to a hospital in an automobile.
out of the play and caused many Of the
spectators to leave the grounds It oo-
casioned much criticism of the new
rules. which were especially designed
to minimize the liability Of injuries.
United States Senator John G. Spooner,
who was in a carriage near the side
lines. left the grounds Immediately af-
ter he saw Soukup hurt.
Soukup made the single touchdown of
the game just after the second half
opened. The ball was in Wisconsin IS
possession on the North Dakota 8 80
yard line, when Springer signaled for
a double forward pass play. Wisconsin
Tented as if to attack the left wing Of
North Dakota.
The game was desperately contested
from tie beginning. During the early
part the visitors kept the ball in Wis
consin g territory most of the time.
Little Johnnie Comey, the North Da-
kota quarter, tried three drop kicks
and one place kick from field, but the
ball went wide of the posts every time
Both teams tried the forward pass
a dozen or more times, but it did not
work successfully very often. Severe
penalties were served to both sides for
off side play. The lineup:

READY FOR KINNEY
Special to The Journal.

Chicago, Oct. 2o.-Benny Yanger,
once Chicago's premier featherweight
fighter, but now boxing in the 1870
pound class, will finish up his hard
training for his contest with Steve
Kinney at Davenport, Iowa, next We'd
nesday night, Yanger has been train
ing hard for this bout, as Kinney is
a newcomer and rather unknown
quantity, and the local fighter does not
intend to take any chances with the
Milwaukee boy. The bout will be ff-
teen rounds to decision, with George
Siler as referee.
This afternoon Yanger made his last
rounds Of boxing. He roughed it with
Dave Barry and Mike Schreck for sew
eral rounds, and then spared with
Johnny Coulton for speed. Coulton is
lo5;pound fighter, and is as fast as
flash and keeps Yanger on the alert.
Yanger has been boxing with the young
ster for some time, and says with
Coulton his speed has improved, as he
never worked with any faster fighter.
Yanger will do nothing but light train
ing from now until Wednesday.

sent it's football team to Duluth to play
today, but it's line was like wet tissue
paper before the Duluth high school

cession up and down the field, and only
once were the local men held for downs,
and then owing to a tumble, the ball
being recovered on the next play. The
final score was 81 to 0 in favor Of Du-
the middle Of the second half by mu-

Princeton, N. j., Oct. 2O.-Prince-

first time this afternoon by the Buck

final score 80 to 4. In the second half
Clark 8 81 gnal for a free catch of punt
was interfered with and the penalty
advanced the ball to the 40-yard line,
when Lenhart kicked the field goal
clearly. Princeton had no trouble to
gain at any time, altho a steady rain
rendered the field unfit for the lodging
game of Harlan and Eddie Dillon. The
ball was slippery and Princeton's fun
bles proved costly, as the ball went
over to the visitors twice on fumbles.
Both attempts at drop kicks failed.
The feature of the game today was the
fast end running of Harlan and the
running back Of Eddie Dillon. The

North Dakota Solves the AdulteratIon
Problem.

North Dakota Solves the Adulteration
Problem.
North Dakota seems to have found
the key to the question, How shall
we protect the people from frauds in
manufactured products?" A new law
HIS recently gone into effect designed
to make it impossible to deceive geo
pie into buying inferior and adutter-
ated paint under the impression that
they are getting real paint. viz: pure
white lead and linseed oil
The North Dakota lawmakers did
not attempt to absolutely prohibit the
inferior pigments. or mixtures Of
pigments. They adopted the slogan.
Let the label tell" and then left to
the people to buy whichever they
wished.
Under this plan. II any one wishes
to buy a mixture Of rock-dust, ground
quartz and other cheap elements
which are found in many paints and
so-called white leads" no one can
object: for they do it with their eyes
open. But If they prefer genuine
white lead and linseed oil. they can
be sure OF getting it. for none but
the genuine article can bear label
which says pure white lead"
In all other States mixtures are Of
ten sold as pure white lead which
contain little = sometimes no = real
white lead.
II would seem that were this same
principle applied to food. beverages
and all other prepared articles, where
deception is practiced upon the buy
er, the question would be solved. II
would leave us free 10 buy what we
pleased. but would protect us from
unwittingly buying what we did not
want.

Atmospheric Poisoning.

The protests against the automo-
bile omnibuses OF London have re-
ceived a powerful reinforcement by
a declaration OF Sir James Dewar on
the chemical basis. He is undoubted-
ly among the high chemical authori-
ties Of the world. and his condemna-
tion Of the motor buses and freight
vans seems conclusive unless inven-
ton provides innocuous motive power.
Sir James Dewar states that the
combustion Of petrol or gasoline "a
these motors throws on vast quanti-
ties OF noxious gases. Some Of these
are absolutely poisonous and all in
furious. He holds that the air OF Lon
don is bad enough already without
the addition Of carbonic acid gas. the
sulphurous gases. and. worst OF all.
the ssphyxiating carbonic oxide.
Moreover. while he admits that SCI
ence can improve motors. he declares
that II is impossible for it to burn pc
troll and render the resulting gases
innocuous.
