CHAMPS RALK ON CUBA
Majority of Athletics De-
cline to Make Trip
to Island.

The reported Cuban trip of the
worlds champion Athletics will not
take place, not because of opposition
to it on the part of the powers that be
in baseball but because the Athletics
don't want to go.
President johnson of the American
league returned yesterday from Phila-
delphia and unbelted the information
that of the players who were at the
celebration there only three or -four
were willing to make the Cuban trip,
and several said they would not go
under any consideration. Not enough
worlds champions could be mustered,
he said, to make up a team.
Mr.. Johnson reported he had been a
witness to the biggest pageant he ever
saw when the Quaker City celebrated
the victory of the Athletics, and he
was told by Philadelphia's mayor that
it was the biggest thing of the kind
Philadelphia ever saw.
The American league executive de-
MED the report that he was i~nstigating
action to compel major league club
owners to file complete lists of theft
stockholders in an effort to weed out
syndicate baseball. He said he had
not ever discussed the matter.

TELLS Of
SPIRITED
MATCH

O~utweighted twenty pounds to the
man, but fighting grimly and at times
des perately, the Valpo Tigers held the
strong Hammond Athletic club to a
tie score and virtually scored a victory
by counting a near-goal at least three
times Sunday at the fair round before
a large assemblage of red and white
supporters.
1t was a case of agility against beef
and Drawn, of gameness against over
whelming odds, but the Tigers were
not aunted by the powerful mountains
of masculinity from the dunes and
swamps of the Calumet. Both teams
proved to be superior in the defensive
department of the pastime.
The Tigers had three nance to nick
the goal line of the Hammond club,
but the nvulnerable defense of the
visitors when under the shadows of
their own crossbars was like humping
into a wall of adamant. Three times

PENN EXPECTS
A HARD GAME

Philadelphia. Pa. Nov. S.-Pennsyl-
vania's football coaches started prepa-
rations for the game with Michigan to-
day. The Quakers think they have the
~ronge team in the east this fall and
that Michigan is the strongest in the
west. For that reason there is not a
trace of confidence. Pennsylvania's
men remember how Michigan beat them
last year. and they are worried over
the outcome. This afternoon the usual
serimmaga was dispensed with. Scott
and Ramsdell are suffering from mus
Gle bruises. They were the only men
s,vho did not report for practice, though
Scott was on the field. Murphy says
he will have both of these players back
in tiptop condition for the game with
Michigan.
