KLAUS BATTLES
NJ GOORTY FOR
MIDDLE TITLE

u HICAGO, Sept. 29.-Back in 1908,
June 4, to be exact, Milwaukee
was alive with fight fans who
gathered to see the bringing out Of a
new champion, Stanley Ketchel, who
won a ten round battle from Billy
Papke by a big margin. Tonight in
that same city another gathering of
fight fans will witness Frank Klaus
of Pittsburg and Eddie McGoorty go
ten rounds.
The clash won't mean the bringing
out of a new champion, but mighty
near such a thing, for though Jack
Dillon and Jimmy Clabby have a right
to dispute any one claiming such
honors. McGoorty and Klaus to-day
hold the highest rank in the middle
weight division. In short, the victor
tonight if the victory be decisive, will
loom up as the man the others must
beat to dispute his title.
There will be no decision at the
close of ten rounds, should the battle
go the full distance, for referees deci
sions are barred by the laws that
govern the game, but the newspaper
boys will be at the ringside to tell the
merits of the game.
To-night's clash carries with It in
ternational interest. Not that either
Of the lads halls from foreign shores,
but because of their battles abroad.
Both McGoorty and Klaus have
fought in the far-off lands and each is
known all over the world Klaus Is
famed abroad for his decisive win
over Georges Carpenter. the French
champion, and for his victory over
Billy Papke, another battle fought on
foreign grounds.
Other minor bouts have been waged
In France by Klaus but these made
him known to the foreign ring. His
American worth has been of top
notch caliber hence the unprecedented
scribes' reason for handing him the
best in the 15S-pOund division.

JACKETS ARE
FEELING FINE
AF TER GAME

7 y spite OF the heat and the earli-
ness of the season, the Tech yell
low Jackets came through the fray
with the Soldiers Saturday without an
injury or a strain that might prove in
any way severe. The usual unpleas-
ant soreness and stiffness Of joints
and ligaments. Of course. was very
noticeable yesterday, but a bit of good
old heel-and toe walking cross. coun-
try took most OF the lameness away,
and the squad reported At and fine
this morning.
The next game, scheduled for Sat
urday at Grant Field, is with the
Charleston Citadel team, always
good, stiff contender. especially In the
early part of the season. That team
has been working out a week longer
than the Mcpherson bunch, and will
be In excellent shape for hard bat
tie Saturday, while there is no doubt
that the rival Of Clemson and the Uni
versity Of South Carolina will be in,
spired with plenty of ambition to trim
the Jackets.
Tech Line Looked Good.
While most of the interest among
the Saturday spectators centered in
the performance of the backfeld, by
reason of the new men and their eX-
Cellcnt rating, it was noted by careful
students Of the game that the Hels-
man line was showing unusual form
r,,y- to
The charging was uniformly low
and hard and the heavier Soldiers
could do little to upseN II. There were
plenty of minor defects, naturally, and
"a lack of that maChine-Hke swing and
dash that CharaCteriZes the seasoned
forwards Put Il must have been
quite rcasSuring to Heisman to note
the manner in which the line stuck TO
its work and kept its cleats in the
ground
Backfield Unchanged.
The hacktield probably will work
through the next two games with tine
same personnel used against the Sol
diers at least until Gene Patterns knee
permits him to get back in the going.
Preas and Johnston showed n lot of
stuff, and promise to develop into Al
backs. While Homer Cook always a
hard and conscientious performer last
year more than upheld his reputa-
ton in the opening game. and Me
Donald showed every bit Of his regu-
lar form. Fielder, shot into the game
fresh. celebrated his debut with one Of
the longest and most spectacular
runs of the day. and showed up well
while he was in harness.
Battle for End Jobs.
There already is a pretty competi-
ton on among CuSnman. Goree and
Lucas for an end job. and 1t will be
even keener when Thomasson returns
20 the squad. Johnston is pretty sure
to get one of the positions. and Heis-
man will have plenty of speed and
ambition to choose from in selecting
his running mate

game will supply a fair idea of what
