CAPTAIN ALLEN GOES
AFTER BILL EDWARDS
Leader of Presbyterians De-
termined That Last Years
Veteran Shall Return.

with half of the regular team out
OF business on account OF injuries,
Captain Allen departed yesterday to
parts unknown In an effort TO induce
his friend Bill Edwards to come back
to school in order that his services
will be available for the game against
the Pittsburg Normal school next Sat
urday afternoon at Association park.
Edwards was n member of the all
victorious Kendall squad last year,
playing In the line beside Allen. His
return has been predicted before, but
for some unknown reason he has
failed TO materialize. II is considered
n safe bet that the veteran Will be
brought back by Allen this time.
II Edwards can be returned to the
Kendall line, McBlrney and Mefford
will have the material to greatly
strengthen the Presbyterian line,
which has proved somewhat ineffec-
tive in both Drury and Haskell fra
cases. Big Malone. who has been play
ing in the backfield until injured
about two weeks ago. has returned and
was placed at an end position yes
terday, but will be shifted to either
guard or tackle AS soon as Gail and
| the new fullback can go in again.
Gail wrenched his shoulder slightly
in practice Monday. The coaches say
his injury will not keep him out of the
game Saturday afternoon. Some who
have seen him play are expecting tc
| see him eclipse Springer.

MYERS IS NEW PATR0LMAN
Former Muskogcc Police Officer Joins
Local Force.

BILLY" Myers, former policeman OF
Muskogee, has been added to the
Tulsa force by Chief Lucas. Myers
was discharged from his position at
Muskogee by Mayor j. f. Wyand be-
cause he appeared as witness
against the mayor during the recent
impeachment trial in which Attorney
General Prince Freezing sought to
oust the Musk ogee executive from his
office for failure to enforce the liquor
and gambling laws. He was good Of
ficer in Muskogee and came to Tulsa
with an unblemished record.
Myers was a victim of circum-
stances. The attorney-gener hap
pened to hear of an episode in which
one Of the king-pi gamblers OF Mus
kogee had followed the officer to the
police station and cursed him and the
entire force out for arresting his negro
porter, who was carrying two grips Of
liquor to the gambling rooms. telling
the officers that he "knew where he
was at" and that they'd better keep
their hands off his men.
Freezing subpoenaed Myers and
forced him TO appear as witness
against the mayor. Two hours after
the mayors acquittal he dismissed
Myers from the force.

"Only one thing can prevent A. G..
Parsons from winning the Democratic
nomination for state superintendency
of public instruction." said a prom
inent school man, who was visiting In
Tulsa yesterday. THAT one thing
would be the entry of the present su-

Parsons, whom the school man
thinks will win, has not made definite
announcement that he will be in the
game, but his attitude in the matter
has left no doubt that he will make
such announcement soon. He has been
state high school inspector for several
years, having the work of declaring
high schools properly accredited when
they fulflll the requirements, and has
an extensive acquaintance.

SOONERS PREPARE FOR
LONGH0RNS SATURDAY
Band and Rooters to Accom-
pany Team to Dallas; Not
Daunted by Illini Defeat.


NORMAN, Okla, Oct. 16.--Not dis
couraged by the walloping received
at the hands OF the Illinois gridsters.
the Sooner football team will jump
from the northern part Of the United
States to the opposite extremity and
will meet the Longhorn aggregation
from Texas university at the Texas
state fair at Dallas next Saturday.
Ben owens men received their first
taste of winter and defeat when they
met the Illinois team on the field with
the thermometer standing just one de-
gree above freezing. Maybe when the
team meets the Texans in a warmer
climate they will be able to hurl the
ball thru the air with more precision
and to hold the ball when they receive
It, Several times the Sooners rushed
their opponents off their feet and car
ried the ball to the very shadow of
the goal posts, only to lose the ball
thru a tumble.
a great crowd of the students from
the university will make the trip to
Dallas to help the Sooners brand the
Longhorns as they did three years
ago. Several pep meetings will be
held during the week and will culmi-
nate in big pep meeting Thursday
night, when bonfires and general pep
tests will be held.
The university band will accompany
the braves to the southern cline, and
there let the Owenites know that they
are not alone in the fight. Professor
Layrer has charge of the band and
hopes to take the whole band of 36
pieces to Texas. New uniforms have
been ordered for the band and the
Oklahoma musicians hope to get them
in time to don them and parade at the

WILLARD MADE OFFER
TO MEET FRED FULTON
New Orleans After Match
Big Boys Sharply Divided
Into Three Glasses.

NEW ORLEANS, Oct. ia local
promoter has wired jess Willard,
heavyweight champion. an offer 10
meet Fred Fulton here Thanksgiving
day. The amount of the offer was not
made public but II is understood IL is
less than some OF the offers which
Willard is said TO have turned down.
II is doubtful II such fight would
draw on enormous house for the
heavyweight class in fistiana may be
said to consist of one man. Jess Will
lard. the champion. He reigns su-
preme. He is without a peer. mucn
less a superior. The more one sees
Of Willard's rivals" in action the
more emphatic becomes the conviction
that the championship crown is worn
not only by the man most worthy or
bearing it, but that he is practically
without serious competition for the
honor. In weight only do Willard's
rivals qualify for the distinction OF
membership in his division. In class"
that indescribable but still very con-
crete factor-and ability jess stands
alone.
The heavyweight brigade may be d.
vided into three or more classes. Three
anyway. Fist and foremost Is Cham
pion Willard. Next comes Fred Fulton.
After that may be grouped In ono
heterogeneous mass the Carl Morrises,
Frank Morans Gunboat Smiths jim
Coffeys. Bill Brennans. Bearcat Nc
Mahons and the rest Of them.
Willard outclasses-providing OF
, course, he can still get i'm the shape
he was in when he fought Jack John
son and Moran--F'ulton as far as Full
ton outclasses Morris. Moran, Smith
and the others. In spite of his victory
over Morris. which at best was any
thing but mastery triumph, but
which victory was to determine Will
lard's next opponent, Fulton does not
measure up to the champions stand
ard. lie will have to improve greatly
over his past performances before he
can be classed or rated a formidable
foe.
Yet while Fulton may not be Will
lard's equal he is superior to the other
men in his class He may not be good
enough to determine the champion,
but he certainly seems 10 be the mas
ter OF any other man that might be

FOOTBALL POPULAR IN

before. This is the testimony of va
rious sporting goods houses the coun-

for football goods. 1t is not because
more colleges and schools are play

doning the game is scarcely more than
a drop in the bucket. The colleges
and schools may be said to be hold
ing their own. Where the game is
booming is in the various military, ma

These camps are filled with college

This seems to be the year for the

IL was one of the most popular and
effective tricks of the game. Gradu-
ally it became so common and the
coaches had developed such an eff

of 1917 Is, the C1iss-crOss already has
been cited for effectiveness In the re-
ports Of many a hard-fought battle.
