identical with those that were to have
governed the bout postponed from Friday
night. The ire Of Dan McKetrick and
Young Ahearn. who insinuated that Mike
was trying to crawl out Of the match,
for training expenses.
This Tight is not likely to lose any of
its charm as . result Of the unexpected
postponement. Mike Is mad as the pro-
verbal hornet that Ahearn and his man
ager should question his houor in the old
home town. He threatens all sorts Of
dire calamities for Ahearn against the
ides Of January. Mike has flooded his
friends in the East with letters Of re-
cocks
elimination against McKetrick and
Ahean. As the battlers will split $4,000
evenly there should be every incentive
for a real scrap.
In the meantime Al Mccoy, recognized
middle weight champion has become cx-
cited over the fact that Mike and Jake
ere billed at title contestants. ,fcCcy

Vigiiant Park when the Southeast
Indians" landed a hard-fought but
cleanly played game by to o.
Because of being outweighed these
Indians" battled on the defensive and
for fifty minutes of the game resorted
to punting and turned the Nationals
back. Three times in the shadow of
the goal post the Mohawks held and
the trusty toe Of Z. Towers took the
ball out OF danger. but when play
swung into the final period. the In
dams" took a new lease on life and
plunged their way to the 3o-yard
line, when a forward heave from
Tower to Hayden put the ball on the
the touchdown.
Five thousand local followers of the
independent football games. who were
on hand to witness the football dou-

charged. 1t is not known whether ad-
mission was to have been charged or
not At the late hour of . O'Clock the
runway to the park was crowded with
anxious fans of the independent grid

refused to throw open his gates until
he had received official orders in re-

the fans were present to witness what
has always been the classic of the local
Independent ranks they were not disap-

ss II was filed with exciting plays, long
dashes, nicely handled forward passes,
and brilliant defensive palying.
The Mohawks lost the toss and kicked
to the west goal, Bittenbender returning
the ball 80 yards before being
brought to earth. Getting away with
the jump the Nationals started a slow
but sure parade, which netted six first
downs and put the ball on the 1s-yard
