and Oak Park could not get the ball
over for touchdown. This was only
temporary relief, because Oak Park
came right back. Getting the ball on
a punt and rushing it within the
danger zone, the visitors scored on a
place kick Macomber made the goal
on thirty-yard boot. In the same
quarter Oak Park scored touchdown
by the judicious use of the forward
pass. Russell gave a good imitation of
Steffen in weighing his way through
the Opposing forces to the goal line.
At the beginning OF the third quarter
Wenatchee showed marked improve
ment for a few minutes and marched
the ball down the field to the edge of
Oak Parks danger zone The coast
boys lost it for holding and from then
on the Oak Park boys simply put it all
over the lads from the apple belt.
The crowd lost interest in the game,
and when the apples were brought out
commenced to indulge in rowdy tactics
by pelting one another. The field was
invaded. a few incipient fights occurred

together it was a disgraceful affair

DEFEATED BY
AUSTRALIAN FOR THE
MI1OLEWE|GHT TITLE
Dave Smith Leads American
in Every Round at Sgd
ney, Winning in Tenth.

Sydney, S. w, Dec. 27.-Bil1y Papke
lost the middleweight championship of
the world to Dave Smith, champion of
Australia, in the tenth round of
scheduled twenty round fight yester-
day. Papke was not knocked out, the
decision going against him on a foul.
The defeat of the American, who thus
far has failed dismally to live up to
his name of the Illinois Thunderbolt"
while fighting in this country, breaks
up the American championship trust"
Until Smith scored his victory yester-
day every worlds pugilistic crown was
held by an American. Papke has been
the recognized champion since the
death of Stanley Ketchel, as he was
the only middleweight who ever beat
the latter.
Smith is the first Australian to annex
the much disputed title since Bob Fitz-
simmons outgrew the division and
SHE'D his castor with the heavyweights.
The conqueror of Papke is being hailed
here the greatest boxer the country
ever produced and is a hero all over
Aus tralia today.
Papke was cleanly defeated, despite
the fact that he lost on foul. Smith
was the aggressor throughout the bout
carried the fight to the American and
had the better of every round.
| That Papke was not in good condi-
| ton was the consensus of opinion of
| those at the rngside. He lacked his
| usual dash and he had not been well
| for several days. In fact. ever since
he landed here in company with Jim
| my Clabby, Johnny Thompson and Ray
Bronson he has been complaining that
! the climate does not agree with him
He had trouble getting into any sort OF
! condition for his battle with Smith, and
| in order to overcome the effects of the
climate went some time ago to the
/ foothills. The change, however, seem
! ed to do him but little good.

BURNS WHIPS LANG
IN LONDON RING

London, Dec. 27.-Bill Lang of Aus
traiia got the decision over Jack Burns
Of California in the twelfth round of
their heavyweight battle here yester-
day afternoon before the Olympia club.
In the first round Lang started in
fighting and clinching. In the second
round he fioored Burns with power
full punch, the gong saving Burns. In
the fourth Lang administered lot OF
punishment, but could not put the
Californian out. In the fifth Burns
showed up somewhat improved, but he
again went down beneath a terrific
onslaught from the Australian. The
seventh, eighth and ninth rounds were
all Iang's Burns had a temporary
rally. but could do nothing dana aging
to his foe. In the eleventh round
Burns was again floored and was so
groggy in the twelfth that the referee
stopped the fight.

CHAPTER XVI.
The Alumni Game.

Every year about this time there would
be quite gathering at the university or
old Lowell graduates. They came to see
the team work in one or two games ana
in practice, and once each year the grad
yates would make up a nine OF old
timers who had come and challenge the
new varsity to a game. 1t was one OF the
traditions OF the university that the old
graduates team always won the game.
notwithstanding their stiff knees and
other joints. to say nothing OF their
poor throwing arms. The occasion was
more of a reunion than anything else
generally, yet at the same time the
old fellows were often able to give valu-
able pointers to the new team, and, on
the whole, aside from the fun OF the
occasion and the good it did the young
sters, it served to bring the sons of Low
ell more closely together.
OF course, the occasion was always
too good a one to be missed by the
practical jokers, and the old graduates.
with the aid of some of the juniors and
seniors. always picked out the good
natured young freshmen to play these
Jokes upon. In the mean time the fact
that these practical jokes were played
was carefully withheld from them. The

because in the college news he is q
guessed you probably had the S125 In
your pockets. and so we arranged the
practical joke to fit what we know. Now
was ii a real story or not?'
Lets go and ask Hans, was all Hal
would say. When they did get to Hans
they made him tell the whole story over,
and McGrew said: IF you come to New
York again let me know and I'll lend You
my auto"
Hal was happy. 1t meant a great deal
to him to be recognized by these class
graduates as their equal, and he had
right to be happy. 1t was recognition OF
his merit by those whose opinion he wall
ued because they had had enough prac-
tfcal experience of the world to enable
them to recognize true worth. None OF
the other freshmen on the team was let
into the secret of why the old graduates
were able to beat them so badly. They
maryeled at the fact that the old-tfmers
were on to every play that the boys at
tempted, and they had great respect
for the old crowd that licked the var
sity that day by the one-sided score Of
II to 2.
But in the evening the graduates club
gave the team a little dinner, at which
this tradition of the university was ex-
planned for the benefit of the other
younesters-Hans, Ty. Iris and Radams,
Ross and Huyier. Then they were all
initiated into the myseries of the Lowell
O. K Club which meant that the team
had been inspected by the old boys, who
he'd won laurels for Lowell in the past,
and was good enough in their minds to
20 against JEFFERSON.
