Timber Sale Completed

The state land commission has recently completed at Flagstaff a sale of nearly 14,000,000 feet of timber from the university sec tions in the Coconino national forest. The total income from the sale of timber will be $41, : 354, and averages about s per thousand feet for the total amount.
 In actual number of feet board measure of timber thus sold there will be 13. 785, 900, located on sec tions 8, IS. 20, 22, 28 and 30, of township 20 north, range 5 east, on the Gila and Salt river meri- dian. The timber was purchas- ed by T. A. Riordan of the Ari- zona Lumber and Timber com pany, on an advance payment of S5, ,000 in addition to being the highest bidder, and he will cut the green and dead timber desig- mated under the rules adopted by the national forest and made ap- plicable to the present case by the state land commission.

FREDDIE WEIGH HAS
SHADE ON BALDWIN
Champion Forced to Extend Himself
i'm the Last Rounds at
Boston.

BOSTON. oct. 2S.-Freddie Welsh
is still the honorable lightweight
champion of the we'll known universe
as he was awarded the decision over
Matty Baldwin in their 12-round bout
which was held before the Atlas a. A.
in this city Tuesday night. The
champion fought a fast. clever battle
and had a slight shade on Baldwin
when the bell sounded at the end OF
the final frame.
Baldwin surprised WEIGH by his
slashing work and forced the title
holder To fight for all he was worth
in every round. The honors were
even at the end Of 10 rounds and il
there was any shade it was ia Bald
wins favor.
The champion, however, gave a
wonderful exhibition Of ring work in
the last two sessions. He realized that
Referee Billy Roche was liable TO call
the tussle a draw and so he opened
FIRE with his siege guns and battered
Baldwin around theNring, scoring with
straight left jab and slashing right
hand blows TO the body.

were analysed as Reggie" Brown
saw them against Syracuse last Sat

Haughton is a little apprehensive
OF the probable outcome of Saturdays

he trotted out the strongest eleven
perhaps produced in the past three
weeks. Ii lined up as follows:
Ends Coolidge and Hardwick;
tackles. Trumbull and Parsons;
guards Weston and Wilmington; CEN
ter. Wallace: quarter back. Logan:
half backs. Bradlee and Mahan; full
back, Francke
This brings back the four veterans
who have been out tor the past three
weeks. namely. Hardwick, Logan,
Mahan and TrumbuH

Ie inevitable has happened.

The inevitable mas happened.
Gunboat Smith was lured into the
ring against a real fighter in real con-

tered 10 a pulp in the first two rounds
and sent down and out for the full
count in the third
The suspicion that many have had
for a year or more that Smith, rs a

been confirmed. And when Sam
I.angford sent Smith to the mat in
Boston the other night he rushed
any ambitions that Smith may have
had of becoming the champion

Few Good Fights.
Smith put up a few good fights. but
he never put up a real exhibition. lie
neither looked like, nor acted like a
man of championship caliber He
was lucky-that's all. He managed
To stay on his feet against a few real
foes but he managed to turn that
trick because he was shifty on his
feet-because he kept as far away
from well aimed punches as ne could.
Something like eight or nine
months ago Smith fought Langford
and the newspaper critics gave the
tight to Smith on points. The "Vic-
tory made Smith cocker than ever
And 1t made the general public be-

But one thing that the public didn't
know about that fight was the fact
that Langford was about so pounds

NEW CONFERENCE
BEING DISCUSSED
Four Western Colleges Would
Form Agreement With No.

a member is now in the air Word
was received last night from Mfwau-
Nee that a proposition FOR the forma-
ZION OF a new federation OF colleges
for the purpose Of holding intercol-
legiate athletic contests viii be pro
posed by Marquette college. The pro-
posed conference is t. include six col
leges. These are: Marquette, Notre
Dame. Wabash. Missouri. Nebraska
and Michigan Aggies.
Talk OF a new conference OF this
nature has been passed back and
forth several times during the past
Jew years, but with no material re-
suit. The report from Milwaukee
however, indicated that prospects this
time look brighter than before.
IT is known that the colleges men
toned have for a long time desired
TO be amalgamated with the Big
Eight and Big Nine, but due 20 varf-
Gus differences over training rules
have never been allowed TO enter. Due
TO this fact each fall sees an argu-
ment whether the champion football
cam OF the Big Nine is really the
champion Of the west inasmuch as
some OF the colleges mentioned above
have beaten teams OF strength in both
the east and west and have gone
through a season without a defeat

nous reach and great weight and en-
durance lacks the greatest asset of a
real fighter-the fighting spirit
willard Is Poor.
Willard is not a natutal fighter
and he never will be a real fighter.
He has been mingling in ring en-
gagements for several years. What
has he accomplished? few knock
outs over dub heavyweights who
wouldn't have Jared much better
against a rushing lightweight Will
lard fought Smith a year or so ago.
The fight was little better than a
buriesque affair. He tackled Carl
Morris, as big as himself, and he
seemed afraid TO wade in. He was as
clumsy as a sea lion. His punches
lacked steam, his defense was weak
and aggressiveness was a foreign
quality
And this is the man who has an
idea that he can whip Johnson.
Willard couldn't whip Smith. Lang
ford, not rated nearly as high as
Jack Johnson. turned the trick in
three rounds. Where does Willard
enter?
The heavyweight situation. as far
as the white race is concerned. is in
Just the same condition as it was in
1910 after Johnson hammered JEFF
fries into Inconsistencies. There il
not white man in sight at the pres
ent time who has a chance with John
son, despite the fact that the Johnson
of today isn't the Johnson of 1910.
JOhnsOn's four years of dissipation
has robbed him Of some Of his speed,
it has softened his muscles, and prob
ably has dulled his one-time nimble
pugilistic brain. But Johnson today IS
better. by far. than any man in the
white hope division and if John
son was confronted with the task Of
disposing of two white hopes in one
night the chances are he would be
equal to it.
