RUSH FOR SHELLS AS
DUCK SEASON CLOSES
Hunters Determined to Shoot Year
Out, Although Cold Makes
Sport Poor.

Determined to get all the sport possible
out Of the remaining twelve days of the
open season for ducks in this state, sports
men are laying in large quantities of
shells, and q great flying of feathers
should result from their efforts in the
next several days.
The unusually cold weather has spoiled
the shooting in most localities, owing to
the streams and lakes being frozen over.
SpOrtsmen find it almost impossible to
get within shooting distance of the ducks,
except where there is still some open wa
ter. The mouth OF the Jordan river af
fOrdS probably the best shooting ground
in the immediate vicinity of the city, how
ever, and large parties of duck hunters
are to be seen In this neighbOrhOOd.
The most common wild duck in the
state seems to be teal, with mallard run
ming a close second. Some canvasback
have been bagged, but this species is
that any are secured. Teal and mallard
however, are much in demand, making
palatable dish.
According TO spOrtsmen, this has been
one of the most successful years ever
known in the annals Of duck shooting
The game laws of the state are rigidly en-
forced and few cases Of gunners taking

COLLINS GOES TO OGDEN
Junction City Fans Want One Of the
Boxers to Train With
Them.

Owing to the demand Of the Ogden fans
that either Sullivan or Collins train in
the Junction city for the bout to be pre-
scented to the wool growers January Z,
it was yesterday decided by the man
ayers of the boys that one or the other
must go to Ogden. Both wanted to go,
and both wanted to stay in Salt Lake, SO
to settle the matter a coin was tossed and
the result was that Collins goes to Og-
den.
Joe Burns, his manager, viii get busy
at once to secure training quarters, anC
the Collins party. in charge Of Trainer
Bob Watkins, will move to Ogden.
Sullivan at first planned to train at the
fire department in this city, but as at
that place the public would be denied ad-
mittance to the quarters, 1t has now been
decided to change the plans so that the
fans can see Pete In his daily workouts.
Frank Armstrong, Sullivan's manager, IS
looking for a place to train. Armstrong
has lust returned from a trip through
Idaho and Montana. He scattered the
news about the fight around, but says
that all the fans had heard of it, and
many were coming down.
Yesterday came word from Park City
that the mining camp fans wanted a
block Of Is seats. Manager r. A. Grant is
now beginning to worry about seating

SIGNAL CORPS FIVE IS
EVEN WITH H COMPANY

The signal corps basketball team
had sweet revenge last night when 1t
defeated the team from II company of
Ft Douglas by score Of 30 to p
in the National Guard aTmOry. The
regulars defeated the signahtes two
weeks ago, IA to Il, and now the team
stands even. Another game has been
arranger for a week from Tuesday
night between the two, which will be
for the odd game.
Better work was shown on the part
of both teams the Fifteenth infantry
team coming up strong in the second
half. At the end of the first half the
score stood 16 to 2 in favor Of the
signal corps. There was nothing to il
but the guardsmen. The regulars scored
one basket soon after the game started,
and that was all they saw for the first
period.
IN the second half the corps changed
the lineup and tried out a new man,
with the result that the team play
was lost and the regulars came strong.
Ten Of the baskets for the corps were
made by Hannibal and three by Book.
Only four fouls were called during the
game, and each one was scored, one
for the regulars and two for the sig
nal corps by Book.
The lineup Of the two teams was as
follows. Signal corps-Forwards, Book
and Hannibal; center, Hume, Warhurst;
guards Armstrong and Richardson. H.
cOmpany-FOrwards Johnson and Leib-
owitz; center, Mcconnell; guards, Har-
per and Elliott.

GOTCH TALKS ABOUT
QUITTING MAT GAME

Frank Gotch is beginning to think Of
quitting the wrestling game. When IN
Cleveland last week he said:
about two more big matches and /
guess I'll quit for good. 1 have threat
ened to do so for q year or so now, but,
cOnfidentially, this is great fun, going
about the country and meeting all corners
But as long as I pose as the champion
and anyone comes along who looks as If
he had a chance to take the title away
from me, I win wrestle him But about
two more hard matches and i will be
willing to let someone else take the cham
pionship."
Cotch does not say sc, but ne has been
systematically training to tackle the huge
foreigners who have been invading Amer
lea. When GOtch wrestled Jenkins and
won the championship a few years ago
he weighed a trifle under 200 pounds. Now
he weighs close to go pounds AoCordins
to DR. Roller, Gotch has taken on weight
Durposely for he knows that a man
Weighing only 200 pounds might not stand
much chance against some Of these giants
from abroad who weigh close to go
pounds. Consequently, where the ordinary
athlete works to get on edge by taking off
weight, GOtch is taking on quite a few
pounds.

UNIVERSITY REGENTS
CONSIDERING NEW COACH

Coach J. H. Maddox Of the University
of Utah, and his wife left last week for
the home Of his father-in-law, J. Green
Of Mackey. Ida. Coach Maddox will be
absent from the city until the beginning
Of the school term on January 8. While
in Idaho the coach has planned to take
an extended hunting trip in the hills near
MaCkey.
As yet the university regents have not
decided upon a successor for Mr., Mad
dock as coach. A score of applicants have
been received by President J. T. Kings
bury for the position, but before a final
selection is made all Of the applicants
will be carefully considered in order that
the university viii get the best man pos
sible to fill Maddoek's position.
At a recent meeting of the university
board Of regents a proposition was made
to Coach Maddox whereby he could
coach the university football team and go
back to his business at the end of the
football season. After considering the
proposition Maddox said that inasmuch
as he was new in the mercantile bust
ness he thought it best to remain at his
work and let someone else guide the des-
tiny Of the Utah football team.

BOXING CARD
LOOKS GOOD TO FANS

The last card to be presented by the
Manhattan Athletic club before it moves
TO larger quarters will be seen Monday
night. Manager Downing has matched
five pairs and his work in that line looks
good TO the fans. All of the boys have
boxed at the club before with one eXcep-
ton, and all have been given the come
back hand from the fans.
One Of the headhners viii be the Chic
Coleman-Pie Davis match. Coleman Is
about the fastest amateur lightweight
seen around here in some time, and his
claim for the championship of the city
at his weight has many hackers. Pie
Davis is a clever cOlOred boy, however,
and says he IS going to show Coleman
