Makes
OF SEASON
AT THE BARRACKS
Machine Gun Company
and G. Company to Stage
First Contest With Picked
Elevens This Afternoon.

The gridirol sport shouldered base
ball aside today and was ushered In at
the Boise barracks during the after
noon by a game between the machine
gun company eleven and company G..
The Second Idaho regiment has one
of the crack elevens of the border at
Nogales last fall and has not forgotten
how to boot the pigskin.
The exhibition at the post today is
but preliminary to the development of
another championship regiment eleven.
A number of new men will appear in
moleskins and make showing. The
two companies boast of some of the
best players to be found in the state.
They will line up as follows:
Company G-Nickol and Baker ends
Siebenberg and Price, tackles; Under
kofler and Hagerman, guards; Jack
son, center: Fleetwood, quarterback;
A, Breshears, II. Breshears, Braskamp
and Shelton, halfbacks; Clemens, full
back; Hartkoft, Bureau, Root, Pyle and
E. Lewis, substitutes.
Machine gun comparatively, Han
sen, Peters and Benham, ends: Foot
and Blodgett, tackles; Doke and Stet-
tier, guards; Trip. center Blodgett,
quarterback: Lavigne and Moran, half
backs; Johnson, fullback.
The barracks field has been placed
in good condition for the initial con-
test. Play should be fast The per-
iods will be shortened in order not to
wear out the players. A number of
substitutes will be used to replace
those who are injured or exhausted.
Rivalry of the keenest kind exists
between the two militia organizations
and for that reason many of the sol
dlers stationed at the barracks will be
on hand to take in the game. The win
ming eleven will be given an opportun-
ity to meet elevens representing other
companies in the regiment.

COLLINS-CILLUN
FINISH TRAINING
FOR Their BATTLE
Welterweights Will Add
Only Final Touches to
Complete Condition for
Monday Night.

Jack Collins. fighting machine gun
boxer and Harry Gillum, Boise
favorite, have about completed their
training for the 10 rounds they are
to travel Monday night. II confidence
has anything to do with gaining
decision, both of these welterweights
will be declared victors. They claim
that ii the sparring exhibition goes 10
rounds, they will be the merriest
rounds the Liberty Gardens have ever
seen. Incidently there seems to have
been no love lost between these two
clever boxers. They promise to settle
their little differences in the ring. To-
day, Sunday and Monday will be de-
voted to adding only the finishing
touches to their training. The diff
ficulty promised with these two boys
is to keep them away from the ring
before they are due to go on.
Collins will slightly outweigh Gillum.
The machine gun champion has been
taking off a lot of extra weight and
looks like a different man than he
did u week ago. Gillum is not eX-
periencing so much trouble. He is
well known to weight and in fast
travelling form. The Boise boxer has
some old scores to settle and is not
going to be backward in doing so.
Neither are windmill boxers. They viii
follow more of the sparring style
awaiting an opportunity to land clean
when openings present themselves.
Both are willing to lead in and mix
freely when the occasion arises.
Fans are openly pleased over the
billing of Reel Mains and Sunshine
Mcclure as the curtain raisers. Both
are popular boys and have Il lot of pep.
They will only travel four rounds, but
it should be good exhibition of the
fistc art. Mcclure will outweigh
Mains, but the latter will make up for
this disadvantage by his reach and
height. As they are both members OF
the Second Idaho regiment, they will
have many hackers around the arena

SPORT SNAPSHOTS

When it comes to breaking records,
every player in any league must still
take off his hat to old ICY" Young,
justly known as the greatest ever" in
his line.
II was 81 years ago this month that
Young climbed into the uniform of
the Cleveland Nationals and pitched
his first game in the major leagues.
That was the beginning of pitching
career which lasted for % years, which
is only one of the many records this
remarkable player made. 1t hasn't even
been equaled and very likely never
will be.
During his long career Young hung
UP n few other records that will serve
as targets for a long time. He pitched
three no. hit games, one for the Clevo-
land Nationals and two for the Bos-
ton Americans. The first game was
in 1897, when Cincinnati was the vic
tim. In 1904, for the Red SoX, he
pitched the greatest game of his life
against the Athletics, not a man reach
ing first base. He pitched another no.
hit game in 1908.
Another record he holds is that of
pitching % consecutive innings of hit
Of 6S batsmen.
Young performed many other notable
feats, such as pitching 45 innings with
out being scored on. When he joined
the Cleveland Nationals he had only a
brief minor league experience with the
Canton club. Cleveland got him from
Canton for $500. He spent nine
GEARS with the Cleveland Nationals,
then two seasons with the old st.
Louis Nationals and eight years with
the Boston Americans. He returned to
Cleveland in 1909 and remained there
until 1911, when he was given his UNI
conditional release. and finished out
the season and his career with the
Boston Nationals.
Where will the boxing center Of the
