though intersectional games are per

the coaches expressed the view that
no keen rivalry exists between the

would not increase the general interest

Football rules were described by the
conference men as thoroughly ideal.

Bantam Champ, Satisfied That
He Is Right" Again, Plans
Busy Season.
TO MEET IN WISCONSIN
Local Aspirant for Title viii Have
Chance to Secure Il the First
Week in January.

At last Young Sinnet, bantam
weight pug of Rock Island. is to
realize his dreams of a year or so
back. He is to meet Johnny Coulon
either in Racine or Milwaukee the
first week in January.
With a punch that carries a bundle
of hot stuff and ability to take an
awful beating. Young Sinnet will like
fight fans say that Coulon will never
put the Rock Island boy over the X.
o. route: and that If he gets the right
into Coulon's anatomy with its usual
force, that there will be a new ban
tamweight champ whose place of resi-
dence will be Rock Island, Ill.
CouIon Has Advantage.
Coulon has some advantage over the
local boy. He has had a longer ex-
perience and is a more scientific scrap
per, but the stiff jabs Sinnet carries
in either mitt, in a way makes up
for his lack of that what the present
champ possesses.
There are three aspirants for the
title now held by the Logan Square
boy. They are Sinnet, Williams and
Campi.
Coulon is satisfied that he is the
Johnny Coulon of the days when he
was knocking the 116 Founders stiff.
To prove it John after a short con-
ference agreed to fight Young Sinnet
in Chicago yesterday. There was no
dispute over the articles, although the
matter of weights will be taken up
next week
Since returning from four months
hunting trip in the northern woods,
Johnny has been working out in pri-
vate every day in order to get a line
on his condition. Here is what he had
to say: when 1 left Chicago after my

my plans to retire. l have been work
ing every day since my return and L
am not going to rtire."
CouIon Plans Campaign.
That was Coulon's statement In a
nutshell and he must be right or he
would not agree to meet such tough
battler as Sinnet in his first come
back appearance. The club offering the
BEST inducements can land the go. for
