There Is an old saying that goes
-"He who laughs last. laughs
best"
Walter Flanigan's clouded visage
was converted into q broad. ex-
pansive smile that stretched from
ear to ear last night. Davenport
laughed hrst on Thursday. but
Walter is doing the laughing now
and there is much weeping and
gnashing Of teeth on the opposite
OF the Father Of Waters.
It all happened something Ike
this:
The Davenport officials came to
Flanagan early In the week and
asked for q game to be played this
Sunday. After much dickering
Walter decided THAT the proposition
would be q good one in view Of the
fact that Davenporters had devel-
oped q new case Of their we'll
known ego and really believed their
team the superior. This promised
lucrative returns at the gate be-
sides fast contest.
And then on Thursday morning,
Dock Yak Mccormack, the guiding
genius of the d. A. c., fiuttered
around to the newspaper Offices
and announced that Davenport had
got Napoleon where they wanted
him, without q chance for q game.
and that the contest with them was
all of. And no smiled, oh so wise
ly and self-satisfied like. Daven-
port was negotiating with four or
five teams for the date and It would
be no trouble. at all to bring the
best one to the city for Sunday.
Yes, this time they had put one
over on the Rock Island whirlwind
that is, they did.
( And then the fur began to fly.
Walter talked himself blue in the
face over the long distance and ac-
quired the writer's cramp from
sending kilograms. It finally sim
mered down to the point where the
st. Paul team was to invade Rock
Island. Yesterday morning this
prospect filtered away and then It
was started all over again. but q
better team was secured for Ger

The latter after carefully consid-
ering the matter decided yesterday
that 1t would be q better thing for
them to play the Minneapolis Ma

winner Of which will meet the all
stars on Thanksgiving.
But Manager Walter Flanagan is

agreed to come and to back this
up promptly deposited $500 as q
forfeit In the First National bank
Of Hammond. At 3 o'clock yester-
day afternoon Flanagan received q
telegram from the bank saying
that all terms had been compiled
with.
The A. AS Of Clabbys, It will be
remembered, is the real representa-
tive Of Hammond. Paddy Driscoll.
former Northwestern star, was
playing with them in 1915 and 1917.
He ID the man who almost single
handed defeated Davenport's strong
team in 1917 in Davenport. This
same team has always occupied a
high position In the professional
football circle.
In order to make the trip to Rock
Island, the Hammond team was
forced to cancel . contest arranged
with another good team. It requir-
ed . guarantee Of large figure
by Flanagan to induce them to
switch, but it was accomplished in
. short order.
