A game with the Lawrence High

Topeka team defeated Lawrence
earlier in the season by score of s
to which gives them a small margin
over the Lawrence team. Topeka did

The Topeka team although heavier
than the local team does not play

PAPKE IN FINE FORM.
The Thunderbo1t Knocks His Sparring
Partner Out for Count


San Francisco, Cal, Nov 25-Billy
Papke knocked out one of his
sparring partners in dead earnest at
the San Rafael gymnasium this after
noon. Ollie Cornett, a promising g
heavyweight was the victim.
Papke was swinging away in the
third round of the bout when sud
denly he reached Cornett with stiff
right to the jaw. He tried to check
it, but the move came too late and
Cornett was down for keeps. He was
revived shortly. but was in no con-
dition to go ahead.
Papke finished up his exhibition of
four rounds with Al Kaufman. He
apparently hit Kaufman whenever
he wanted to and roughted it with the
big California heavyweight in way
which made his visitors gasp. Papke
is down to 157 pounds and will do his
last boxing before the match to-
morrow afternoon.
ketchel also attracted a good crowd
at his Colma quarters, working both
with Mike Mcclure and Harry
Marcy. The Michigander is around
159 pounds. but will work as late as
today before he lays off. Betting
on the bout is still at 10 to z, with
even money offered that Ketchel will
last more than eighteen rounds.

For many years penmanship has

they leave school. but that they shall
be perfect in writing legibly and uni

toward imroving the pennansnip of the

terest among the children and appeals
to them in a manner which is difficult
to attain by the schoolroom teacher.
"Another important and v holly good
feature of the contest is that 1t brings
school affairs closer to the home. That
is something. Weare constantly trying
to effect--to have the parents and the

intimate interest in school affairs. The

thus bring their parents into a closer
