Proceedings Democratic Convention.

f~T0CeeulngS DeIuocTaGlc ConVenGlOns
TIL State Democratic convention
was called to order Wednesday, at
Columbia, by the chairman Of the
state committee, Gen. Willie Jones,
who was reelected to that position
by the committee, after a PROPOSE
ton to defer the election Of chair
man had been defeated by a vote Of
% to IL.
Opponents of General Jones desire
to have the selection of state chair
man made by the convention instead
of the committee, as is required un-
der the present rules, and this pro-
position was presented to the con-
vention by the Chesterfield delega-
ton. 1t is said General Jones is OPP
posed because of his connection with
the defunct Seminoles Securities COM
pany, through which hundreds Of
persons in this state lost money.
Gen. Jones' election was followed
by applause on the part Of the COM
mittee and those present. Thirty
four of forty members voted for
Gen. Jones, the other six not voting
at all because of their view that the
election should not be held before the
convention. Superintendent D.. j.
Griffith of the State prison, execu-
tive Committeeman from Lexington,
was nominated for the craftsmanship,
but declined, thanking Mr.. L. l. Par
rott, of Sumter, who nominated him,
and saying, ~ am not a candidate"
The Richland delegation presented
proposed amendments to comply with
the state law as to registration and
payment Of poll tax before being
qualified vsters.
AS president of the convention,
Richard S. Whaley, of Charleston,
speaker Of the house, was elected
without opposition.
The convention did not in any NAH
ner consider the prohibition ques-
ton, as it is not the policy Of the
party in South Carolina to consider
state issues in convention, all such
matters being decided in the -prim-
aries.
Work of Convention.
The South Carolina Democratic
convention killed:

Big GAME LAST night
Indoor Baseball League Games Play
ed Last Night Were Holly
Contested.

The games in the InterdenOmina-
tional Indoor baseball league last
evening at the Y. NJ. C. A. gym were
the most exciting and most interest
ing that have been played thus far. A
good sized crowd Witnessed the con-
tests and the exhibitions were eharac-
terized by the enthusiastic roofing
that was carried on by the supporters
of the different mines.
In the first game the "Y' team won
from the Christians in a holly con-
tested scrimmage by a small margin
of one tally, the final score being 20
to. 10. At various times during the
game the score was tied and the win
ner was in doubt until the finale of the
contest
In the second contest the First
Methodists and the Baptists battled
fiercely for tally honors and when the
time was called by the umpire the in
dicator showed a victory for the Meth.

D. B. c. And LISBON
TO Open SEASON
FIRST BASKETBALL GAME OF
SEASON WILL BE PULLED OFF
AT D. 3. C. GYM NEXT FRIDAY
EVENING-LocAL TEAM HAS
FAST. MATERIAL.

The Lisbon high school basketball
team will play the d. B. G. team at
Fargo Friday evening"; Dec. 2. 1t
is claimed Lisbon has very heavy
team this year and they are quite
fast.
A large number of new players at
the d. B. c. will be given an OPP
portunity to participate in the game
Among some of the players who will
most likely take part in this game
are: Shaw and d. r. Vowles, old
Tower City high school players;
Seims, who played with Mayville
normal two years ago. Butson, former
ly with Hillsboro high school. Lo-
berg, belong, Greene, Turner, Ether
ington and Lere are showing up well
in practice.
This game will be played in the D
B. C.. gym, and as it is the opening
game of the local basketball season a
large number of local basketball fans
will undoubtedly be on hand to get
a line on the d. B. c. team this year.

Washington again is able TO fiaunt the
championship banner. Three touch
downs were the result of the use Of
the forward pass. the play which has,
more than any other strategic feature,
gained first place for the varsity.
HUSKY was on the receiving end Of
all these passes, he pulled down the
turning oval in the finished fashion
which made Warren Grimm an ideal
end and scored the third touchdown
for the Dobiemen after galloping
twenty yards with the ball.
Forward Pass Is a Wonder.
Dobie has developed this play with
all possible variations in all its in
TRAGEDIES. Sometimes the tackle
throws the ball, sometimes a punter,
Max Eakins; sometimes the quarter
back, end or tackle. But always they
know where they are to toss it and
who is to receive it.
For three years this has been the
best thing in Coyles repertoire. Col
lege scouts have watched II work, have
gone home, told how dangerous 1t was
and defenses built to break 1t. Yet
Dobie's men have always got away
with 1t. The forward pass works be-
cause it is used at the psychological
moment.
Rex HoseIy's brilliant run aided ma
terially in the scoring of the first
touchdown. Soon after the kickoff
when Captain Hawley won the toss
and elected to defend rather than at
tack the Washington backfield trium-
virate began to pick holes in the o.
A. G.. line.

SKATERS READY
FOR Big SEASON

New York, Nov. 29.-In a couple Of
weeks the skater will be in his glory,
and already those who are keen on the
sport have been sharpening up their
blades with the expectation of an ac-
tive racing season. The A. A. U. will
probably take control and make the
right kind of an effort to popularize
the king of winter pastimes. No out
door sport is more in need of a help
ing hand.
At the beginning of the season a
year ago the Eastern Skating associa-
tion started out on the right track by
announcing some local fixtures and the
conditions looked bright for series of
first-class races, but unfortunately the
Eastern association met with some
trouble. II persisted in enforcing the
suspension of Edmund Lamy of Sar-
anac Lake. At first the International
Skating union, which has an alliance
with the A. A. IT,, said Lamy was
justly disciplined. A little later the
situation took another aspect. for La
my was a star and the rink men want
ed him at their meets, and then and
there the Eastern association was told
by the international body that the sus-
pension was unjust.
The A. A. u. backed up the interna-
tional body and when the members Of
the Eastern association tried to stand
by their action the president of the A.
A. U. put the quietus on them. They
did not quit till the skaters deserted
them, and the fact remains that the
A. A. u. backed water and for the
first time in the twenty-five years of
its existence, it had to stand for a
spurious situation in amateur sport.
Then the A. A. u. ordered a new skat-
ing body formed in the east. An an
nouncement of its inauguration mate
rallied, but the most careful scrutiny
Of the metropolis and the outlying dis
trlcts failed to find a constitution of
bylaws or board of directors, though
there was just faint trace of the ex~
istence of a president and secretary.
or course the championships were
held at one of the Kinks but they We're
sickening sight, only few skaters
turning out for each event and those
showing very poor class. Now is the
time for the A. A. u. to come to the
front and do something, or else there
will be no racing this year except what
might be promoted by the rink owners

Milwaukee, Wis, Nov. 29.-Whether
or not Bob Moha has a good right to
make a claim for the welterweight
championship, will be demonstrated in
this city when he clashes with Jimmy
Gardner in the near future. Gardner
claims the title, so does Mike Twin
Sullivan, Jimmy Clabbe and Bob
Moha. However, Clabbe is out Of the
running because Moha, who is known
as Handsome Bob, gave him trim
ming Just before Jimmy went to
Australia with Billy Papke and
Johnny Thompson. Tommy Lough-
cry, once star lightweight, also
wanted look-in for the title but
Moha handed a lacing to the Penn
| sylvania boy less than two weeks ago.
The two fighters who should be
given the greatest consideration in an
effort to annex the title, are Jimmy
Gardner of Lowell and Mike Sulli-
van. Should Moha defeat Gardner
there will be only one man to block
his path to the championship That
| man is sullivan. Arrangements are
now being made to have Sullivan come
here and fight Moha the middle Of
December providing Moha beats
| NTdTQnef.
Moha has been fighting several
years, but for a long time was the
''black sheep" in the boxing world
Milwaukee conducted shows about ev-
cry two weeks for many years past,
but itwas always hard for Bob to get
a match. But this year 1t is different
and matchmakers throughout the
| country are seeking his services. OF
course his victory over Jimmy CIai5be
brought him prominently Before the
| boxing publc.a After his fight with
Clabbe. Handsome Bob walloped the
| daylights out aof Iiliard Lang, the
Canadian champion, in one round in
| Buffalo. Last week he gave Tommy
Loughrey of Manyunk, Pa, the worst
lacing the halter ever received.
Victories over Jimmy Gardner and
| Mike Twin" Sullivan, win mean the
welterwefght championship for Bob
Mona, known also as Handsome Bob"
and wild Bob"

the conventional bead, but his rife

when he saw this hostile action, and
with a last reproachful look at the
hunter ambled off into the big timber.
Up to the last moment that the
