Notre Dame "huskies" arrived In Ann
Arbor yesterday afternoon ready for
the annual game with Michigan. The
squad was taken to Ferry field early
yesterday afternoon, where Longman
sent the players through light work

who will represent Notre Dame today
did little toward boosting Wolverine
stock. The game is the last one for
Michigan on the home grounds.
Michigan is reasonably confident of
winning, although neither Captain AL

dictions as to the size of the score

SPORTING NOTES
JEFFRIES WANTS STRONG Man;
WILL PAY $500 FOR z MIN

Four hundred dollars for twelve
minutes work. That sounds like pref
ty good pay. doesn't It? Every one IN
the entire country will have a chance
to earn the much-desired collateral at
that rate during the next four weeks,
but what he will have to do will make
him think twice before he takes a
chance of taking down the coin.
All any of you huskies who tip the
beam at about ESQ pounds has to do
to earn that $500 in twelve minutes is
to remain in the same twenty-four-
foot ring with Jeffries four rounds.
It is not likely that there will be
many applicants for the job, which
was announced by H. H. Frazee, the
local Theatrical man, on his return
from New York yesterday, where he
signed Jeffries up for a seven weeks

COFFROTH
MAY GIVE
3 SHOWS

New York, Nov. 6-Not a word as
yet from Jim Cofroth, big mogul Of
the fight promoters, with regards to
his offer for the Johnson Jeffries cham
pionship battle. Coffroth insists, as he
did the day he arrived from Califor-
MIA, that he hasn't given the thing a
thought, and won't until he has cleared
up the business of the Ketchel and
Johnson moving pictures.
Coffroth said yesterday: TT has
been proposed to me that I make a
three-day fight carnival of the affair if
I land the big fight 1t has been sug
gested, and it isn't half idea. that in
the event of my landing the greatest
fight in history that I do as the New
Orleans promoters did in the Corbett
and Sullivan fight, hold a three-day
session and decide three great cham
pionships, the feather, light and
heavy weights. I have as good ma
terial to work on as they did Think
OF a three-day show with such stars
as Abe Attel. Jem Driscol. Battling
Nelson, Packey Mcfarland or Lew
Powell, and then the big noise, JEFF
and Jack. But this is all suggestion
and nothing may come of it
THE man who lands in first place
with his bid is the fellow to settle
upon how the thing should be played
up. I have this to fall back upon,
however Jim Jefries has said dozens
of times that If he was fighting for a
percentage that he would fight for me
before all others. That, Of course, has
nothing to do with the present situa-
ton. He'd be a fool to fight before
my club If I offered him $4,000 and the
other fellow came across with So
600. If by chance there should come
a hitch in the bidding I feel that both
men would lean toward me.
'The big fight will come off on July
that is almost sure If some other
fellow is luckier than I am I viii put
on a bout for July 2. I might get
Nelson and Powell or the best light
weights then before the public.
The offers now coming from Seattle
are foolish. There is an anti-hght law
on the statute books of that section,
and they are in much the same position
as you are here in New York. What
ever little boxing they have has been
conducted while the authorities
winked. Same in Portland. It would
be Impossible for them to hold a
heavyweight championship fight as it
would for the local boys to hold one
in Madison Square Garden.
by the way, I may put on Jem
Driscou and Abe Attel on Christmas
Day for the featherweight champion
ship. 1 have closed with Ateel and
will with Harvey If 1t is possible to
get Driscoll to come by that time"

/. H. s. BODY

The feeling Of the Hammond high
school students regarding the attack
on the South Bend football team in
Hammond Saturday was voiced in reso-
lutions received by Manager DuShane
Thursday. says the South Bend News.
The resolutions follow:
BE it resolved that we. the student
body Of the Hammond high school, re-
greet and deplore the outrageous treat
ment accorded the members OF the
South Bend football team and their Of
fcials by gang of hoodlums and ruff
fans in our city. Be it further resolved
that, although this affair was in no way
connected with the high school, we shall
do all in our power to prosecute the
offenders and shall see that a repetition
of such conduct does not occur in the
future. The student body of Hammond
high school does further request that
these resolutions be given to your daily
papers and that they be read before the
student body"
Several of those who participated IN
the attack are IN jail and word has
been received by Manage DuShane to
be ready to appear with evidence
against them when the case is called.
Local high school students have moth
ing but words of praise for the sports
manlike and gentlemanly conduct
which they say was accorded them on
the field and in Hammond both prior
TO and after the game by the students
and faculty of the Hammond school.
The prompt action being taken by their

Furnishing the perpetrators Of the riot,
