HART EXPLAINS HODAG SCORE ON TURKEY DAY
Prescott Coach Says Part of High School Team Was Composed
 of Old Heads
Especial to the Republican,

tPPtNle.l tO Ailt INtHuiJiltttf-J
 TEMPE, Nov. 2S.-By way of ex- planation as to why the normal was played to 10 to ' score in it's Thanksgiving day game at Prescott, Principal F. w. Hart of the Prescott high school, has authorized the pub fishing of the following statement. MT Geo. H. Schaeffer,
 Coach, Normal Football Team.
 May this statement over my sigma ture bear witness to the fact that four of the men who represented the Prescott school in the football game between the Tempe normal and the above named school played in Pres colt on Thanksgiving day, were n9. --!gihle under the rules of the High s-A-nl Athletic association of the state. Three of the men were alum nj and one an undergraduate not en- rolled in the school. The strength of the team was materially affected by these men and no comparison of scores is just or flit to the normal when made with scores against the regular eligible high school team.
 Very respectfully.

QUAIL FOR VALLEYS
 OF LITTLE COLORADO

Cooperating with sportsmen in Apache and Navajo counties in movement to stock the upper valleys of the Little Colorado with quail. Game Warden Willard is making ar engagements to trap sixty birds in this valley for shipment to the north ern counties.
 owing to the height of the range along the Tonto rim, valley quail do not migrate to this section of the state, as they do not ordinarily oc eur above an altitude of 5000 feet The valleys of the Little Colorado however, are said to furnish an ideal habitat for this variety. and it is believed that with adequate protec- tion it will be but a few seasons until there will be large numbers in that part of the country.
 The boards of supervisors of the two counties and others interested in the movement have arranged to pro- tect the birds with rigid regulations. Shipments of a dozen birds each will be sent to Springerville, Snowflake. St. Johns, Iolbrook and Winslow, where they will be liberated.

Harry Love. better known as Billie Martin, at one time rated as the best amateur middieweight boxer in the world, is an inmate of the Maricopa county poor farm, according to Howard E. Futile of this city. Mr Futile says concerning the case:
 Billie Martin was one of the fastest, hardest hitting boxers who ever put on the padded mitts. He was famous in the four round bouts during his amateur days, and has more knockouts to his credit than any other man who ever boxed for medals or glory. From 1889 to 1894. q period of five years. he he fought-never month without two or more. In 1893 he made T tour from San Francisco, his head : quarters, to the east and through Canada, bringing back medals from all the best amateur clubs It was at the end of this trip that Love was expelled from the American Amateur Association and after two years of striving to be reinstated, without sue cess, ne became pfOIeSSlOndl.
 Tt was in 1894, at Vancouver, that Love met George Read, champion heavyweight of Canada. They fought sixty-one rounds to a draw, for $500 on the side and the gate receipts. This was Loves first fight out of the four-round class.
 As professional, he had bad luck. In one of his first professional bouts, he nearly killed the Grand Rapids

Billie Martin, Once
 Famous Pugilist Now
 In Poor Farm Here

Kid in mill which took place at Everett, Washington He next met Charlie Reynolds, d novice, and put him out in seven rounds. Reynolds came to, all right, but was found dead in his bed the next morning. Love was arersted, but as there was no evidence that Reynolds died from the effects of the injuries he had received the night before, the case against him was dismissed.
 Loves next fight was at Vallejo, and resulted even more seriously It was with Burt Brown, a negro, who took the place of Owen Star, who be- came ill at the last moment and could not fill the date In this fight there was but one blow struck. The men stepped to the center of the ring and Love landed a terrific blow right over the heart, instantly killing his op- ponent. The man was arrested, tried and found guilty of murder in the second degree. This is probably the only case on record of conviction for Ia killing in the prize ring.
 "The district attorney proved there was no signed agreement between the fighters. Brown had not expected the rushing attack, and met it with his hands at his sides Love finally got a new trial, but the jury disagreed, and the case hung along until it was eventually dismissed, the defendant promising Judge Burdette of the Mar win county court he would never enter the prize ring again.
 Love was natural-bo boxer, and has turned out some fast anna : teurs He was sparring partner to Tom Sharkey when the latter fought Corbett. Hattie Stewart, the great female pugilist. was a pupil, as WAS George LaBlanche, who learned the famous LaBlanche swing from Love. It was with this blow that LaBlanche outfought the great Jack Dempsey.
 Love was a great fighter in his day, but the way of the pugillst is d hard one He made a lot of money, and spent a lot Now he is in the poor farm here, waiting for the gong that will call him to the center of the ring for the last time, when the Great Referee will count him out and mo- ton him to his corner in the heaven that is for all good prize fighters

Game Would Have Been More One-Sided Had Not Middies Fought So Des- perately; Army Finishes Season Undcfeated.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 2S.-The United States Military Academy foot ball team defeated the Naval Acad emy eleven by score of 20 to 0 in the annual game on Franklin anced army machine started it's march for the initial touchdown the ultimate outcome was never doubted. The Annapolis combina tion was out played and outclassed in every Cc- pertinent of the game, but for tie splendid fighting spirit of the navy in the face of certain defeat the score would have been much larger
 The famous amphitheater was thronged with nearly 33,000 spec tators. The weather was ideal as an Indian summer and more appreciated by the spectators than by the teams. who suffered considerably from tle warmth.
 Iris victory makes each team the winner of nine of nineteen games played since 1890. with the 1905 game d to tie.
 The result also rounded out tri- ulii pildll StdSon lOl lHc dlIlS NlNli is one of the very few eastern teams completing it's season without ie feat or I tie.
 Each team in turn tried out it's opponents defense, but there was Do continuity in the play of either elev- en during the early minutes of the game. As a result bunting was re- sorted to and the army's first score came as a result of these exchanges. Coffin kicked from the cadets fortyyard line, the ball after hitting several players, rolled to the Navy's five yard line where Blodgett fell on il. His attempt to punt out from behind his own goal line on the first lineup was blocked and he fell on the ball for safety while several Army linemen were struggling to se cure possession of the spherOid.
 The second period opened with the i ball in possession of the middies, who could make little progress 1 through or around the Army line. l The cadets gained on every exchange of kicks, and when Blodgett fumbled

Second Valley Run Under Harder Conditions Than First Scares Out Score of Riders Who Promised to Start.

But a dozen motorcyclists will face the starter this morning in the valley endurance run, according to the entry list made out last night. Where twenty additions were expected, two with draWals were made from the list pub hshed yesterday morning.
 In spite of the small entry list, there will be run, however, and in spite of the narrowing down of the field, there will be plenty of competition. Last February, over pretty nearly the same course, twenty riders competed and seventeen of them scored a thousand points apiece. This year with 12 en- tries, and much harder requirements, it is doubtful if anybody will come through the battle unscathed.
 Chairman John Hohl of the contest committee has worked hard on the pro- position. He has secured two hand some trophy cups, one for the rider and one for the team making the best scores. In return for these cups, Hohl gets part of the entrance money, which does not total a dozen simoleons. Yet Hohl was criticized for wanting to make money on the event.
 Ernest Fogle, driving one gray liar ley-Davidson will start out first, checked out by Ben Rudderow. He will be accompanied by Lyle Abbott, Harley Davidson, as his team mate. Numbers three and four are Herbert WTScester and Bob Orput, riding 9 single Indian and a twin Merkel. They will be the second team. Paul Swee- ney and Milo Franklin come next rid ing Indians. Amos Dye, Indian and FL lie Wilson, Thor, will be the next team.
 Tommy Thompkins. Merkel and Maurice Valentine. Merkel, are the rid CTS on Merkel team No. l and start ninth and tenth. Frank Sellner and Johnnie Albright compose the second Merkel team
 w. K. Elliott, the rider who was so badly hurt in the collision with the fence in the first lap of the hundred mile race. has said he will enter an Ex- celsior this morning. Harry Crandall, Merkel, may be another post entry.

BASKETBALL OPENS WITH
 TWO L0P-s|DED CONTESTS
Mesa No. Beats No. i; Lehi Falls
 Before Chandler Quint

MESA, Nov 2S - The opening games of the NJ. I. A. series were played at the Vance auditorium last night, but were a little too one-sided to be really interesting. The first game between the Mesa first and second wards resulted in an over whelming victory for the second, the score standing 45 to r. Of this number Del Stapley piled up a total of 31 points, throwing II field bas- kets and three from the foul line Morris came next with three field scores, Phelps with two and young Stapley with one. Pomeroy starred for the first ward, getting credit for three field baskets and one foul pitch which scored. Ellsworth. three field baskets. Brundage with one and Blair one.
 Lehi was only able to get one point on Chandler in the second con test. This was made by Biggs on a foul pitch. Brown for Chandler all most equalled Stapley's record. hay ing ten field baskets to his credit and one foul pitch. Johnson came next with three fields and four foul pitches. Peterson with d field and Ray with field making a total of 35.
 The next contest will be between the teams from the second ward and Chandler, with Johnson as center in the Chandler team. Stapley will have his work cut out for him. The work will be fast and furious, on both teams. as they are more evenly balanced.
