San Francisco, Nov. 26.-Battling
Nelson will daily with fate when he
squares away with Owen Moran, the
British feather weight, in a 20-round
battle this afternoon at Blots open-air
arena. If victorious, the iron man
from Denmark will step into line, the
logical claimant for q return battle
with AID Wolgast, present light weight
king. If beaten by the shifty Briton,
BAT" will strike his colors, cast aside
the mitts and elkskin shoes and for
ever abandon the game in which he
long has stood for clean sportsman
ship.
Has Not Shown Form.
Everything hinges upon the showing
TO be made by the Dane. In his last
two bouts, fought against third and
fourth raters following months of idle
ness, the former champion displayed
none of the qualities that made him
terror against Cans, Herrera, Corbett,
McGovern, Britt or WoIgast. That last
beating handed the Battler by Wolgast
on Washington's birthday this year ap-
parently crushed the neversay-die spir-
it of the veteran gladiator.
In his bout with Moran the Dane will
men the ring has produced in many
days. The English boy is wonderful
boxer, he is there with the punch, is
tricky and geared to travel over the
long route at top speed. He has dem
onstrated his class time and again in
battles with the top-notchers of his
weight, both in this country and
abroad

DAVENPORT is TOO ROUGH
Reason That Clinton High School
Broke OF Athletic Relations.

Clinton Herald: 1t may seem
strange to many that the Clinton and
Davenport high schools football
teams do not meet on the gridiron
this year. but the explanation is a
simple one. 1t is to be found by re-
verting to the circumstances of last
seasons contests, wheT the Daven-
port players and students exhibited
a disposition which has resulted in
the Davenport high school being tab
coed by more than one high school
in the state so far as football games
are concerned. Probably the dispo
sition of Davenport was intensified
last year because Clinton defeated
Davenport on the Clinton grounds
and played a return game at Daven-
pjort, repeating the feat. Other high
school teams. however, had the same
experience and have likewise put
Davenport on the list of undesirables.

Philadelphia, Nov. 26-The army
and navy game started at 2:06, Dalton
of the navy kicking off to the army's

the crowd. Immediately afterwards IL
companies of midshipmen came onto

ton. Both teams appeared on the
field just before 2 o'clock and were
greeted with tremendous cheering.
Contest on Even Terms.
The first kick at the opening of the
second period sent the ball to the
navy's 25-yard mark, but was at once
carried back to the 35-yard line. A
penalty gave the ball to the army on
the navy's 45-yard line and where a
try for goal from placement failed by
few inches.
A few minutes later the navy made
the same effort for goal. but the ball
went wide and was put in play on the
army's 25yard mark. But little advan-
tage was gained by either side during
the remainder OF the period.
The half ended with no score and the
ball in the navy's possession on the
army's 10-yard mark. This was the
nearest either side came to a score and
the navy got the ball there on a fun

Manager Rowan of Peoria is making
some progress in getting material for
next season. He has secured Pitcher
Mike Fletcher from Brooklyn, paying
for him the $500 that he received from
the sale of Pitcher Ernie Ovitz to To-

drafted by Cincinnati, will come back
to Peoria if he fails to make good
higher up. Rowan is also on the trail
of a shortstop and second baseman

plan is to place Smith of last years
