COLLEGIANS, 10.
Curtin Pegs Pass to Palmer in
Final Moments of Play
Christmas Day.

A forward pass for Is years, deity
executed from CurHn to Palmer, en-
abled the All-Memphis prep eleven to
establish 10 triumph over the All
Coilegians Xmas day at Russwood park.
Curtin shot over the pass in the clos
ing minutes of play and shortly after
kicking goal, the game ended.
Previous to this the contending
eleVens had plunged up and down the
field with little advantage to either
side. Most of the gains were peeled off
by end runs and drives at the line.
The collegians threatened early when
Haekerschmidt recovered a fumbled
punt on the 15-yard line, but the
youngsters held on like tigers and
eventually moved out of danger, From
TINS point on the going was too diff
cult for either side to rip along with
consistency.
AT the same time the individual work
OF the numerous stars was a rare treat
for fans.
The 10 score enabled Zach Curtin

board and from some of these it was
learned that on last Monday the yes
sci suddenly dropped from the top Of
HlpuHtdlu nlgn wave INTO deep
trough of the sea. The shock of the
impact caused the big liner to shake
and culver from stem to stern Many
of those on board asserted that she
went completely under.
Christmas eve was celebrated on
board. A tree was provided for the
children, concert was arranged and
a special Christmas eve dinner was
served.
Among the passengers was Fred II.
Screaton. foreign representative of the
New York department store. Mr..
Screaton has been abroad since October
investigating for his firm trade con
ditions In England, Belgium and
France. He said England, particularly
in the northern section, is rapidly re-
covering from the effects of the war.
Mills handling wool and cotton prod
ucts are booked up almost year il
advance, and the factories of Scotland
are enjoying what may be termed the
unusual prosperity.
France, he added, is also picking VI.
rapidly. Raw materials are needed but
systematic return to normal conditions
is rapidly bringing the country back
to prewar conditions. The low rate
of exchange, he added, Is one of the
greatest handicaps under which all Of

DUNDEE PUTS ONE OVER

Johnny Dundee's knockout victory
over Tommy Tuohev was something of
an event in the Italians boxing career.
Although Dundee has been a topnotcher
for seven or eight years. during which
he has fought hundreds of bouts. his
list of knockouts could he tolled off on
the thumb and fingers Of one hand be-
fore his most recent affair, Since 1911
Dundee has stopped the following men
Ty Cobb, one round; Jack White, nine
rounds; Young Drummie, two rounds ;
Johnny O'Leary, nine rounds. and Tom
my Tuohey, five rounds. Despite his
lack of effectiveness, Dundee never
has been accused of stalling and he is
more of a slugger than fancy boxer
Most of his blows are Of the swinging
type and he puts all his strength be-
- each wallop he let's fly.
