PLEASED AT WINDSOR

Eight young pugiljsts tired them
selves out swinging at each other at
the Windsor boxing opener last night.

fans which. while Il did not pack the
arena, was very satisfactory for the
first night In the wind-up bout.
Johnny Prendergast bad an edge on
Bonnie Mcneil. although he was push
ed hard clear to the gong in the final
round. In the seminal. Sammy Tay-
lor, OF Detroit, and Buck Hayes, Of
Cleveland, fought nard and fast. Tay.

and Hayes with surprising ability
to take punishment and come back
for more. Taylor will boz In the semi

away from the goal as the result OF
one OF Lawton's wonderful punts.
This sort or thing took the heart out
OF Minnesota. Then came the two
sensational forward passes from
Wells to Borleske and Michigan again
heard the strains Of champions Of
the west" rolling from the stands.
This yesr tie U. of ID. seemed
destined to have the best team in the
history or the school. Injuries. de-
sertions. inability to get out TO prac-
tice, have blighted such hopes. But
every night from o'clock till dark.
George puts his proteges through
their PAGES. Some nights he has nj.
most an entirely different squad from
that which was out the previous
night. But such things do not bother
Lawton.
Yesterday afternoon II was sug-
gested to the players that I'm view
OF assertions to independent squads,

for the year. They looked at Law
ton. caught bit OF his spirit and
unanimously voted to stick out the
season In spite of all the jinx could
do. This week Lawton lost Mullane,
the best player on the squad. Last
week he lost weekes and Halgh.
Earlier in the season he lost Ber-
trand. But George Is out there just
the same, whipping the best he has
into gridiron machine with that
splendid spirit that never lets him
realize that he is beaten.

was Fight, boys, fight EN-" And as
they trotted forth upon the field. one

There are at least three football
games Saturday which will claim q
great deal Of interest In Detroit. The
headliner will be the Michigan-Syra-

Secondary interest Is divided by
the Harvard Penn State clash. and
the Yale-W. 4 ]. clash. Last year
Washington q Jefferson held the

sylyania college has q better team
this year. The two schools are far

Here's a Coach
With An Idea

One of the best known football
coaches in the country said the other
day: why make an effort to run up
big scores In the early games against
the weaker teams? These scores are
made by the use Of plays that are
useless against the stronger opposi-
ton encountered later on. There Ii
no real practice In that. Isn't It bet
ter to be content with smaller figures
and develop the style Of football that
you expect to use La your important
gamesy' Sounded to Us like good
dope.
