MAROONS AFTER TITLE

Championship laurels of the West ap-
pear to be rushing towards Chicago.
The maroons seem to have the inside
track again. with Wisconsin looming
up as the only probable contender.
Minnesota Saturday effectively killed
the gopher's ambitions. In fact, the
erstwhile giants of the North were
totally eclipsed for the first time in
years.
Wisconsins shallow victory over
Marquette may be due to the policy of
Coach Barry in concealing his plays
But at that it Is hard to conceive that
Wisconsin has great team under the
new style of play as wears the maroon
of the midway. There is. Of course a
chance for a triple tie, providing the
gophers defeat Wisconsin and the the
badgers turn around and wallop Chi
cago But this is scarcely looked for.

BRITT AND SUMMERS TO
AMUSE LONDON TONIGHT

London, Nov. Jimmy Britt. the
American lightweight. and Johnny
Summers of England meet at Wonder
land tonight in a ten-round bout at
catch weights. The rounds will be of
only two minutes duration. The local
sporting public is exhibiting a great
deal of interest in the go and the house
will surely be packed. Britt has been
guaranteed $4,000, with a percentage
privilege. It is estimated that the re-
ceipts will total $4,000. If Britt wins
local promoters will probably send for
some American fighter to meet him
here.

TEST BOUTS AFTER ELECTION
Milwaukee Promoters Intend to At
tempt Revival of Boxing Game.

Milwaukee, Nov. Boxing will be
attempted in this city again after cleo
ton. This was made certain by the
attitude of the promoters, who dispute
the right of the governor to stop them
and who say that they will take the
matter to the courts. They claim that
boxing contests do not violate the state
law, which only provides penalties for
fights.
No attempt was made to stop the
amateur bouts at the Milwaukee A. c.
last night, seven bouts, one of which
ended in a knockout, were pulled off.
Ralph Nelson. the former 105-pound
champion, was put away by Bob Welsh
in the second round.

HAMMOND TEAM WINS
Michigan City Foes Van
pushed BY Locals Tn
Gruelling Contest.

The Hammond Iroquois football team
defeated the West End Athletic club of
Michigan City yesterday by the score
of to 0. The Hammond boys returned
to this city after the game somewhat
bruised and sore as a result of the
gruelling contest but they We're the
victors in a holly contested game and
are now ready to take on Gary or any
other team in northern Indiana
The first half of the game was played
without either side being able to score.
Early in the second half, however, the
Hammond boys succeeded in making a
touchdown when Beacon formed a per-
feet interference and Daugherty, Ham
mond's right tackle. went over the line.
The game was played al the City
Hall park in Michigan City and was
witnessed by from 700 to 1000 rooters.
The local team had the strongest de-
tense. Only three times was the Mich
lgan City team able to make its gains,
once on a forward pass, once on a
forward pass, once on a quarter back
run and once on an end run. The rest
of the time the boys from the neigh
boring city found the Hammond de-
Tense stone wall.
All Play Good Game.
The reason why the Hammond score
was not larger was that Farmer Smith,
the Hammond center, was unable to get
into the game account of his eye
and it was necessary to put in Carl
Waite, who had not had as much prac-
tice as Smith and fumbled the ball.
All of the boys played a good game.
There was little effort to make grand
stand plays and it was the team work
that counted. Heiser in his position at
left end was especially efficient. Con-
sidering his weight he made some great
gains and stuck to the game although
he was laid out several times
The Michigan City boys played a
rough game but they treated the WISH
itcrs from this city nicely and the
Hammond players have no complaint to
make of the treatment they received.
Whit1eb acted as referee and Frank
Baker as timekeeper for the game.

after postponing the O'Brien-Langford
bout for week the National A. c. pro-
motors saw that the case was hopeless
and declared the affair off. The club
will close its doors at once.
Langford and OBrien may shift the
contest to O'Brien's club at Phila-
delphia.
1t is thought that the signal of de-
feat shown by the National A. C. will
be followed by a general abandonment
of the game here, even by those pro-
motors who have talked most loudly
about intending to take the case into
the courts. Just as in the racing game.
1T is recognized that the Tammany ele-
ment and its political pulls have
killed a profitable sport.
