Bluffs Athletic Carnival
Best Ever Offered in Iowa
Pair of Wrestling Matches Between Stars of Mat
Game and One Four-Round Boxing Exhibition
Should Prove Greatest Attraction Promoter AL
Fiori Has Staged in the Bluffs Auditorium

Promoter Al Fiori will present
card on Saturday night, Novem-
Der /, at the Council Bluffs auditori-
um, what is probably the greatest
show that has been staged in Iowa
for years. Four stars of the mat
game, Charley Peters and Charles
Hansen in the main event, and
Tom Ray and Chris Mortenson,
THE Terrible Dane" in the opener,
as we'll as a sparring match
between Harry Williams. the
leading heavyweight boxer in this
section, and Butcher Boy" Billy
Uvick, who has outgrown the mid
dleweight class and is now a light
heavyweight.
The books kept by Promoter
Fiori show that he is sparing no
expense in his efforts to make this
the greatest show that Council
Bluffs has seen. He has engaged
the best wrestling stars available
for this show and the best boxers
in this neck of the woods for the
exhibition.
The boxing event will only be for
four rounds, for the reason that the
city fathers must be shown that
boxing itself is a clean sport and
that it can be conducted cleanly.
If this show is handled we'll and
there is no opposition among the
sporting fans to this style Of en-
tertainment, it is likely that boxing
bouts will become one of the fea-
lures of the Bluffs athletic shows
in the future.
In order to show the fans and
the authorities that he can manage
a show of this kind in as good
shape as they are handled in Des
Moines, Sioux City and other Iowa
cities, where they are permitted to
have boxing shows, Fiori engaged
the best known pair of boxers
around here for his show. He will
show a real contest of four rounds

East Des Moines
High Team Blanks
Council Bluffs Bows

Playing a good defensive game,
but weak on offense, the. Council
Bluffs high school foot ball war
riors lost their opportunity to Sc
cure the state gridiron champion
ship yesterday afternoon in the
Bluffs to the fast and experienced
East Des Moines high school
eleven, u to O. In the first half
Council Bluffs made an on-side kick
complete and carried the ball across
the goal line, but it was ruled un-
official by the referee. This was
the same play that caused the de-
feat Of Iowa by Illinois week ago.
Within five minutes after the
opening of the game the Des
Moines backs by a series of line
plunges, carried the jigskin across
for their only touchdown in the
first half, Wilcox, star center for
the Bluffs, was forced to quit the
game for few minutes after the
opening whistle, due to a sprained
ankle. This helped to weaken the
Bluffs line. The Bluffs eleven sue
ceeded in working the ball into the
Scarlet and Black territory and
Lemon, Bluffs quarterback, failed
by an inch of claiming the honor to
be the first man this year to score
on his opponents.
In the second half the Capital
City lads came back strong and by
finding wide gap in the Bluffs
line and carried the ball to within
a few feet of goal. On the next two
line plunges they carried the oval
across. A few minutes later Wal
ters of Des Moines completed for
ward pass, running IS yards for an
other touchdown. The Bluffs men
were forced to punt often and great
ly excelled their opponents in this
department. Tew, the diminutive
and star quarterback for Des
Moines, received severe injuries and
was forced to quit almost during
the entire second period. Des
Moines relied on passes, as they
couldn't penetrate the Bluffs line
consistently. The Capital City lads
made their final touchdown few
minutes before the game ended.
Coach Meyer of Des Moines
made the statement after the game
"that II was the poorest fight his
men had put up this year, due to
the late arrival in the city Friday
night and eating a heavy meal just
before playing" He said that
Lemon, playing defensive fullback
for the Bluffs, was the best man on
defense he had seen this year.

Colgate and Princeton in
Bitter Battle; Former Wins

Princeton, N. J., Oct. 25.-Col-
gate defeated Princeton, 7 to 0. in
one of the bitterest football strug-
giles ever seen in Palmer Memorial
stadium. The Tigers held the visit
ing team even throughout the great
er part of the game and had the
ball deep in Colgate territory most
of the fourth quarter and once
Trimble dashed across the Maroon
line only to be called back for off
side play in the Orange and Black
line.
Colgate early found the Princeton
line practically impenetratable and
resorted to a forward passing attack
at the start of the second half. A
bad kick by Trimble gave Colgate
the ball on Princeton's 32-yard line
at the middle of the third quarter.
Anderson, Colgate's quarterback,
then opened a fierce attack, using
Gillo time after time against the
Tiger forwards and mixing his line
plays with forward passing game.
The Maroon team finally gained
first down inside the Orange and
Black 10-yard line, but the Prince
ton line steadied and took the ball
on downs.
Triinble kicked out Of danger but
Anderson brought the ball back
with nice run and Colgate was
once more within scoring distance.
Watkins found a hole in the right
side of the Tiger line, and on a for
ward pass, Anderson to Watkins,
took the ball over the line for a
touchdown. West kicked the goal.
Trimble and Strubing played bril-
liant games for Princeton. Colgate's
attack centered around Anderson
and Gillo.

WisConsin's Old Style Play
Too Much for Illinois Eleven

Urbana, ILL.,, Oct. 2s.-Relying
principally on old style foot ball and
making huge gains with line plays,
Wisconsin's superb eleven defeated
Illinois on Illinois field, IA to 10.
Illinois was the first to score,
Reichle booting a goal from the
field in the first period from the
Wisconsin 15-yard line.
At the start of the second half
Illinois carried the ball to the Bad
gers l-yard line, but the Crimson
braced and took the ball on downs
A steady march to the Illinois goal
then started with jacob and Sundt
forcing their way through the
crumbling Illinois line. jacob car
ried the ball over and Davey kicked
goal. The Wisconsin eleven scored
again in the final period when the
Illinois line again gave way for a
march to the goal. A short pass di-
rectly over the line enabled Weston
to score.
Illinois gave the Badgers a scare
in this period when Fletcher nabbed
a pass from Slocum, Illinois substi-
tute end, and ran 20 yards for a
touchdown. Fletcher also kicked
coal.

''Chick" Zozaya Stars
In Basket Ball Game
For Fontenelle Team

Making his first appearance on
the basket ball floor this season,
"Chick" Zozaya, star right forward
of the Fontenelles, proved the hero
for his team when he shot two per-
feet sensational field goals from
practically the center of the floor in
the extra period contest against the
Kountze Parks and won the game
for his teammates, the score being
IL to E.
The score stood 6 to 6 after the
second period and it was necessary
to play an extra period to decide
the winner. Hanson, right forward
of the Kountze Parks, put his team
in the lead by shooting a sensa-
tional basket on a run, but Zozaya
put one in for his team and again
tied the score. With but few sec
onds to go, the crack right forward
again figured in the score column
when he shot one of the most sem
sational goals ever made on the
"Y" floor, thereby winning the
game for his teammates. He was
TeSpOIlSlDlc lOI " VI TIC AS pOlHtS
made by the Fontenelles.
This contest was by far the best
played thus far this season and was
also the first extra period affair.
The other three games of the
evening were easily won by the
victors, as their opponents at no
time of the game had any chance to
overcome the big leads. The Mime
Lusas, who defeated the Idlewilds
by the score of 1o to l, thus far are
favorites for the pennant, as they
have won both of their games by
large scores. The Bemis Parks
took the Monmouth Parks into
camp by 81 to 10 and the Glendales
registered a victory over the Nor
woods, 81 to H.
Although small crowds turned
out to witness the games during
the first week of play, Chairman
Verne Moore, who is the sponsor
of the Preseason league of which
these quintets are members, an
nounced last night that he expects
far better attendance Tuesday
night, when four more games are on
the program. These games are all
played at the local Y. M. c. A.

OMAHA LOSES 10
DES MONIES BY
SCORE OF 81 TO 0
Central High Team Out
weighed 10 Pounds Per .
Man and Now Able
to Hold Iowa Rivals.

The North High sch. at Des
Moines repeated history by handing
out defeat to the purple and white
team from Central High, "a to 0.
Last year Des Moiues defeated the
Nebraskans at Rourke park to the
tune of 40 to 0. The green and
white team had a harder time to
whitewash the Central warriors
than they had expected, and were
obliged to fight every minute of the
fray.
Des Moines had lucky breaks. In
the first quarter Swoboda of Cen
trail was forced to punt out OF dam
ger. Bobby Robertson. also of Cen.
trail, blocked the punt before it had
gone one yard. Des Moines recov.
cred the ball. After few smashei

weighed the Central team at least
10 pounds to the man. Line plunges
and short passes accounted for the
tallies. The Central line resembled
a hurdle for the heavy Des Moine!
men. Logan of Central was the
mainstay of the Central line. Camp.
bell, the snappy signal caller on the
Central team, could not open up al
he was instructed, due to the weak.
ness of his line.
Morton, the dusky fullback on the
local team, accounted for the second
touchdown when he raced around
the end for 20 yards. This husky
lad weighs Us pounds, runs low and
is hard one to encounter. Lowe,
playing the signal calling position
on the local team, accounted for the
third touchdown when he inter
cepted a pass. The first half ended
with. the score at 20 to 0.
Bobby Robertson was unable to
make his long spirals pass the fast
Des Moines men. The entire Des
Moines backfield and Bradley inter
cepted passes throughout the entire
session.
Central put up a game fight in
the last period of the game. A pass
to Campbell and one to Swoboda
from Bobby Robertson placed the
locals on the 7-yard line, which was
the closest that the visitors could
come to the locals goal.
The time of quarters was 20 min
utes. Penalties: Central for IS
yards, Des Moines for S. yards.
Stewart of the Iowa University
acted in the capacity of referee, Car
berry also of Iowa was the umpire.
Dunagan of Simpson University was
the headlinesman.

Dartmouth Back Makes Fine
Kick, Defeating Cornell

New York, Oct. 25.-Dartmouth
defeated Cornell, 9 to 0. At no time
was the Green goal line in danger,
Cornell making only three first
downs.
The feature of the game was
marvellous drop kick by Robertson,
left halfback of Dartmouth, in the
fourth period. Standing on his own
45-yard line, he drove the ball
straight at the Cornell goal 55 yards
away. The ball struck the cross
bar, bounded high in the air and
dropped back of the goal line for
one of the greatest kicks in the his
tory of the game. Score by periods:

New Haven, Oct. 25.-Yale had
little difficulty defeating Tufts, 81

Sharpe's eleven apparently had re-
covered from the blow received last
week from Boston college and the
rearranged team displayed an i'm
proved brand of foot ball. Loose
playing and fumbles, however, Still
marked the Eli attack. At no time
did the Bay Staters seriously threat
