KOSSICk WENT TO
DRAW WITH LUCCA

Saskatoon, Alberta, Oct 12.--Leo
kossick of Fargo and Charles Luccss
OF Chicago went the limit of their ff-
teen round boxing contest in the Em-
pire theatre here last night and 1t was
give and take all through the fight.
Luccs was a trihe lighter than koss-
lex, but he is very clever and the two
that this section has seen.
kossick retained his high standing
with the local fans, for he has proven
himself gentlemanly and efficient at ey-
cry turn of the wheel.
The boys weighed in at about 1913,
with Lucca probably two or three
pounds lighter. He is a tough young
customer, and has been boxing about
Chicago and elsewhere and has been
meeting some of the best in the busi-
ness. He said that Kossick was one
OF the very best men he had ever met
and that the Fargo boxer need have
no fear Of meeting any one in his class.
The house was filled and the battle
started off in the first round with the
two boys feeling each other out After
that round 1T was give and take, and
was the finest exhibition of scientific
boxing that has ever taken place in
this city, kossick will be matched to
meet another man here In the near
future ... .....
get match between Leo and Packey
Mcfarland, although the promoters
here would not be at all adverse to
putting UP the guarantee asked by the
Chicago Stockyards' pride.
Those who saw the bout last night
were unanimous in saying that Kossick
had a shade the best of it, but under
their feet at the end, 1t was to end in a
draw.

GRAND FORKS TO
GO TO HAMLIME

Grand Forks, N. D., Oct 12.-North
Dakota university will send a strong
team to Hamline today to meet the
Methodtsts. Coach Vehmeier having
been successful this week in adding
much strength to the aggregation
which, for time. seemed decidedly
weak and with little prospect of MAX
ing good. Todays game against Ham
line will mark the opening of the foot
ball season for the Flickertail univer-
sity. ..'- -.
The work of the Flickertail team up
to this week had been directed by
Coach Armstrong, but he has been sue
ceeded by Vehmeier, formerly of the
play has been developed, and Vehmeier
Is confident that the team will be able
to make a good showing against the
Methodists.
At quarter a new man has been de-
veloped, Pinkham playing the position.
He is a former Casselton high school
gridiron star, and he has been showing
a great deal of ability. At center, john
son, a freshman, is on the job. John
son has played on high school teams
and prep teams during the last four
years and, with his 200 pounds of beef,
makes a formidable fixture at the pivot
point.
Dahl, who played right half last
year, returned to school this week and
! is on the field again. Hoy Russell looks
| like the choice for left half, with Lynch
working at full. For guard position
! Mason, Bulge and Nelson are contend
ers. For tackle, the field includes Har-
ris and Mcknight, both members of the
| team of last year, with SChlosser and
| Niles at the ends.
The schedule for the season, follow
ing Hamline's game, includes Carleton
at Grand Forks Oct 10: Manchester al
college at Grand Forks, Nov. 2 and
South Dakota and Sioux Falls, Nov. 9.

Is getting there with all sails set.
You didn't know that Saskatoon has
white hope" did you? Well, i
seems to be the case. Dan Smith, the
big rugby player, likes the glove game.
He likes Leo KossiclS, too, and has
of days OF course, Dan just does it
to get into shape for football; never
theless, he's willing mixer and all
that ...- '&
Yesterday afternoon. with visions
of Jawn Awthur Jowson's crown
glittering before him, Dan was more
frisky than usual. He worked well
and he was really showing class when
-well--this is where the sad part
comes in.
Leo and Dan had been sparring for
q few minutes, when Daniels jaw ran
into something-spectators say 1t was
a hook. Anyway 1t was Leo Kossick's
nit, and the big fellow dropped. He
was not counted out but heap sur
prised. @
Smith practised with the rugby
quad in the afternoon, and did not
seem any the worse for his novel ex-

are not improved The sanction of the
Automobile club of America for the
