CHICAGO. Nov. 11-According to
the football experts. there are but two
star centers in the west this season
Des Jardien OF the Chicago eleven and
Patterson of the Michigan team. The
former is one of the best ever decelop-
ed in this section He is as fast as
any of the ends and gets down under
punts almost as quick. His passing
to the backs is particularly good. He
is the tallest man in the position. In
the game with Wisconsin recently he
played brilliantly. Three times he
intercepted forward passes for big
gains. Injuries have kept Patterson
out Of several games. In good shap
he is one Of the best I'm the west.

MIDDLEWEICHTS
CLAIMING TITLE
Eight Boxers Lay Claim to
Throne Of Stanley KetCheII.
MCGOOrty FavOrite

Who is the real middleweight
champion? Eight boxers-Eddie Nc
Goorty, Billy Papke, George Carpen-
tier, Frank Klaus, Jack Dillon, Jimmy
1homps the title, but not
one can establish his legitimate right
to it.
McGoorty says the crown is his be-
cause he defeated Klaus, Dillon.
Thompson and Brown Papke claims
II because of his decisive victory over
Carpenter The latter said it was
his before Papke beat him, and still
claims it because the American was
few ounces overweight when thev
fought. Dillon put in a bid for il
when he defeated several of the sec
ond raters- and the others took it for
the same reason
When the battles of each man are
considered it is found that not one is
entitled to the middleweight cham
pionship. Stanley Ketchel was the
last fighter to hold it and no real
titleholder has been established since,
although all the 15S-pounders in the
game managed to have the inscrip-
ton after their names
The same trouble existed in the di-
vision several years ago, when Jack
O'Brien was in, his prime OBrien
beat everybody at his weight and
finally claimed the title. But it was
disputed by Tommy Ryan, who had
quit undefeatod They met and
O'Brien won in what was said to
have been a questionable affair. But
after that O'Brien was recognized as
the champion.
lt will be a long time before a mid
dleweight championship is establish
ed, according to boxing authorities,
as there, are so many fighters, and
not vast difference in comparison.
The crowd of 15S-pounders boxing to-
day is probably the largest the game
has had for a decade or more We're
al of them placed in a tournament to
be decided within six months, il
would be a dubious task to name a
winner in advance They all seem to
be about evenly matched and, the
way they have been battling for the
last few years, none of them canes
up to the class Of Tommy Ryan, Bob
Fitzsimm0ns or Jack Dempsey.
There is one man among the num-
Der. however. who might be classed
as head of the rank. as Stanley Ketch-
el was. This Is Eddie McGoorty OF
Oshkosh, Wis, the cleverest. fastest.
hardest puncher and possessing more
ring intelligence than any of the 9TH
or men,
One who has been connected with
the fighting game for many years de-
clares that Tommy Ryan never was
much better as a boxer than McGoor-
ty, although the latter lacks Ryan s
.aegressiveness. .It was only the lat
ter's ruggedness.sit is said, his game
ness and ability to hit that made him
such a wonder, as he was not clever
Fight fans declare that if McGoorty
could absorb some of Knockout
Browns fighting spirit he would be
the leader of The 15S-pound division

TRIBUTE TO LINCOLN
Nation Observes Birthday An.
niversary of The Greatest
Of All Americans

Feb. 18th was the 103rd anniversa-
ry of Abraham Li1colns birth.
The public schools throughout the
entire land observed it as holiday
as well as all patriotic businessmen
who paid tribute to the 18th presi-
dent.
More than any other great man
of the New World the figure of
Abraham Lincoln grows in majesty,
like some lofty mountain, as it re-
cedes in the perspective of time.
Tributes to his fame seem more
spontaneous and more fervid than
to any other American immortal"
IF Lincoln were indeed the greatest
American, his preeminence consists
in the quality Of his soul, differen-
tiated bothIfrom mere ..scholastic
learning and from technical wisdom
in political art. He rose to heights
of magnanimity, patience, faith and
devotion which dwarf into mean
ness proudest triumphs of higher
learning The spiritual quality was
supreme in him, as it is in everyone
at his best.

VALENTINES T'MORROW
What Day Means And How 1t
Originated St. Valentine
Beheaded

Wednesday, Feb. 18th. is st.
Valentines Day.
The day and the custom of send
ing valentines, can be traced to a
practice among the ancient Romans.
At feast of the Lupercalia which
was held on February 18TH, in honor
of the great god Pan, the names of
all the vergin daughters of Rome
were put in box, and draw there
from by the young men, each youth
was bound to offer gift to the
maiden who fell to his lot and to
make her his partner during the
time of the feast.
No doubt this custom led to the
formation Of many life partnerships,
which was undoubtedly what its
practical originators desired.
st. Valentine was bishop of
Rome during the Ord century, who
converted the pagan Romans to
Christianity. For this he was be-
headed by Claudius. The date of
his death was Feb. 14th., 270.

DAVID MORGAN
LECTURES HERE
NotedsSt.sPaul Socialist Work
g .4szssxs
er Draws Good Crowds
In Redwood

Rev. David Morgan from St. Paul
gave what is considered by all those
who were present at the court
house Wednesday and Thursday
evenings logical discourses on social
ism.
For number of years Mr.IMor-
gan has managed a Bethel, or
christian lodging house in St. Paul.
A haven for unfortunate men who
with scanty means are forced to seek
the most humble accommodations
In many instances these men are
discouraged, and i'll, which, it is
claimed by those who make study
of sociology in the big cities, is the
paramount cause of the harvest of
human derilicts that is being reaped
each year by the asylums and
prisons.
Rev. Morgan comes in heart to
heart contact with men of this de-
scription every day in the year at
the Bethel. The years which he
has devoted to managing the institu-
ton have offered an exceptional
opportunity to study sociology, and
learn many facts that never appear
in print.
The lectures delivered here caused
much comment and discussion
among socialis tic sympathizers.
Mr.. Morgan links the ethics of
christianity and socialism very close
ly and asserts that they go hand in
hand.
when socialism ceases to comply
with the teachings Of Cod he says
then socialism ceases to be social
ISM many people misconstrue
socialism and condemn it because of
a wrong and incorrect conception of
it.
But the people all over the world
are learning more each year what
socialism really is, and they are be-
coming more enlightened on the SUBJ
ject.
There are sixty million socialists
in the world today, and the number
is growing at the rate of twenty
million a year"
