One of the biggest surprises thus
far this season in the Preseason
basket ball league happened last
night when the Fonteneles, tail
enders, defeated the crack Kirk
woods, leaders of the league, in one
OF the hardest fought games by the
score of l8 to II, thereby breaking
the Kirkwoods' consecutive string
oIvictories.
BY losing their first game of the
season and the Mime Lusas taking
the Bemis Parks to % to 8 trim
ming, both Kirkwood and the Mime
Lusas are tied for first honors.
Adams and Everson Responsible.
Adams and Swede Everson were
responsible for the Fontenelle's vic
tory. The kirkwood five started off
like victors, scoring two field goals
before the Fontenelles were able to
register, but were soon overtaken
when Adams and Everson started to
shoot goals from the center of the
floor. Verne Moore, who made his
initial appearance with the Mime
Lusa quintet, pulled his teammates
to victory, as he made 70 of the %
points.
The Kountze park team also
sprung surprise when they won
over the Union Squares by IL to
score and the Idlewilds defeated the
Morningside quintet, IA to II.
A large crowd attended last
nights games at the local "Y" and
were well satisfied with the out
comes, as all four games were fast
and snappy and kept the spectators
guessing until the finish.
Chairman Verne Moore of the
"" basket ball committee an
nounced last night that indications
at present point to a most successful |
season in the Church league. The |
league will be limited to eight teams
and the first eight sending in their
application and entry fee will be
given a franchise. according to
Moore. Those wishing to enter are
urged to get in touch with the "Y"
officials at once, as it is expected to
start the league shortly after the
holidays.

GAMES THIS WE
By KARL LEE.

Lincoln, Neb., Nov. lS.-(Special,
The Hastings claim to the state
championship by reason of theil
early season defeat of York by q
score of IS to Ia was put to silence
! last week when the Bronchos played
the weak Doane Tigers to to {
tie.
Coach Ben Beck of Wesleyan uni.
versity had received numerous let
tiers from the Hastings institution
I'D to last weeks game asking that
Wesleyan and Hastings play a final
late season game for the state title.
The reason given was that both col
leges have severed relations with
York college and now considered
the title above the present cham
pions.
"York is Champion"
"York is champion" was Beck's
brief reply. "If you can convince
me otherwise or that you have a
definite claim on the state title, |
won't consider a game"
Meanwhile the York team pressed
its title in more tightly by swamp
ing the Cotner Bulldogs, Coach
Kline's phenoms, to the tune OF 40
to 0. The game was played on York
soil and word in Lincoln was to the
effect that Ernie Frank was minus
several of his star linesmen when
the battle started. The Bulldogs
fought clean fight. however.
The Kearney team in its badly
tortured condition will be spared
another 1opsided trouncing at York
next Friday for the York authori-
ties have scheduled game with the
University of Nebraska Freshmen
eleven to take place on Nebraska
field Saturday and hence have can
celed the Kearney game. The Nor
malites are now probably out for
the season unless their regulars ef-
feet come back in studies.
I Midland college of Fremont
showed strong in Fridays game,
defeating Nebraska Central, trailers
in the state conference easily, % to
0. The Central lads were in the
game the entire way, however, ae-
cording to reports and it was a
much stronger Fremont aggregation
than that which began the season
that achieved victory.
In the absence of a game by the
University of Nebraska Cofnhuskers
this Saturday the state college games
and the Nebraska Freshmen-Y ork
games will hold the central stage
Wesleyan and Cotner, long rivals
in fact, since state colleges began to
play foot ball-meet at University
Place. The day has been nominated
Homecoming day" for Wesleyan
grads.
Doane and. Central meet at Crete.
The chances are that the Tigers
will crawl one notch higher from the
bottom of the conference scale, while
Central will descend one step farther
down.

BETTING ODDS
Change TO EVEN

Wagers of 2 to ! on Glib

ST. Paul, Mimi. Nov. 1S.-An un-
usual change in betting sentiment
on the 10-round bout here Novem-
Der q between Mike O'Dowd, mid
d,eweight champion, and Mike Glib
bors, has been noticed by Twin
City sport editors. Three weeks
ago, Gibbons was considered to

said to be the standard.
Both fighters live in St. Paul and
are training here. Sport writer's de-
clare that Gibbons is not showing
his old time form. whereas
O'Dowd's workouts have been re-
feired to as the reason for the shift
in the betting odds.

'CLAPHAM STARTS
TRAINING FOR
|CADD0CK MILL
British Champion Trying to
Land Ivan LinoW to
Be Chief of His Condi-
tioning Staff.

Chicago, Nov. lS,-(Special.)-
Sam Chaplain, light heavyweight
wrestling champion of Great Britain,
has started a hard grind of training
for his contest for international hon
ors with Earl Caddock at Omaha, on
/ December 5, next. Sam is nego-
tiating with several local heavy
weights to work with him and in a
couple of days, he will have his
training staff lined up and on the
job.
The Englishman is especially
anxious to secure the services of
Ivan Linow, the giant Russian, but
the big Russ asks for such enor-
nous inducements, that it is doubt
full if the Englishman can see his
way to meet the demands. Charley
Cutler has already agreed to assist
Sam in his preparations. Johnny
Meyers, the niddleweight crack, has
also signified his interest in Sam
and will give hand.
The Russian is most desired for
the purpose, because he combines
wonderful speed and endurance.
with his 100 pounds of remarkable
muscular development and in the
matter of the science of the sport
there are none better in the heavy
weight class. Local followers OF
the game, who favor the English
crack against the American title
holder, are exerting their utmost
influence to induce the foreign giant
to shave his price to reasonable
figure and join the Clapham camp
as trainer-in-chief. 49,.
The Briton will do lot of road
work in his schedule, five miles at
the least, every morning and until
four days before the date of the
match will spend two hours in the
gym and most of that time will be
consumed on the mat. Sam figures
he will enter the ring weighing
around the 190-pound mark, which
will bring him in at his very best.
To do this he will have to take off
a matter of IS pounds.

1t looked as though Dempse,
was doing his best to stop Miskc
but the latter foled him by usins
jab and grab tactics. At the END
of the six rounds Dempsey plainly
was tired, while Miske was on ths
point of total exhaustion. That
did not make it look as though the
bout was prearranged affair. Miske
is in poor health at the present time
and is in no condition for match
but the fact that his speed and skill
baffled Dempsey indicates that d
clever boxer has a good chance to
60 the limit with the titleholder.
However, clever heavyweights are
just as scarce as good sluggers
The cleverest of the contenders
probably is Battling Levinsky. Le-
whisky was knocked out in three
rounds by Dempsey, which seems to
put him out of the running. But
the inside facts regarding that af-
fair never have been published. 1t
is quite possible that if Levinsky
trained properly he would be able
to stick out the full eight rounds.
Levinsky Harmless Taper.
Levinsky is the Freddie Welsh OF
the heavies, harmless Taper whose
bouts are too tame to be interesting.
But if he was matched with Demp-
sey the contest might be interesting.
Dempsey could be depended on to
furnish the excitement and Levinsky
is clever enough to make the cham
pion go at top speed to catch him.
If Bill Brennan got the match the
bout would be full of action of a
more serious kind. Brennan is game
and would fight back to the best of
his ability He carries more betty
wallop than Levnsky. but he is not
in Dempsey's class as a slugger.
Brennan has an awkward, cramped
style and of late his development
has been greatly retarded by illness.
He probbaly would be knocked out
in a few rounds, but it would be a
fight while it lasted.
There is hardly doubt that Fred
Fulton can beat any of the chal-
lengers. At first glance that should
make him the logical opponent for
the champion. As a matter of fact,
matching Fulton with Dempsey
would be the worst mistake the pro-
moter could make.
Paralyzed By Fright.
Fulton was knocked out by Demp-
sey because the big fellow was so
paralyzed by fright that he could
not defend himself. If he were
frightened stiff before he ever sam
pied Dempsey's tremendous wallops
it stands to reason he would have
even less chance i'll a return go,
especially now that Dempsey is a
champion and therefore more awe
inspiring opponent.
1t was agreed on all sides when
Fulton made his fake confession
that he had read himself out of the
party. Men of his stamp are a
menace to the sport and he deserves
no further consideration.
IF match should be arranged
between Joe Beckett, the English
man, and Dempsey, it will be even
money that the Englishman will not
last through the first round. A
fighter who needed II rounds to
dispose of Eddie McGoorty should
not be allowed in the same ring
with Dempsey.
Carpenter probably would last
longer than Beckett The French
man is clever boxer and he
might be able to keep out of harms
way for a few rounds. But Car
pentier has been out of the ring too
long to be a serious factor in heavy
weight affairs. In fact, it will be
no great surprise if Beckett beats
him when they face each other on
December q.
