SPORTS- MUCH INTEREST LN SATURDAYS GAME SPORTS

I'll the game with Fathers. Shane, al thought he came here from New Jersey, knew of the keen rivalry which existed between the Panthers and Bulldogs. He has just as much enthusiasm as any of them, and wants Howard to win just as bad as any man on the Howard campus. Though Shanes return to the game that day will mean something 10 the Bulldogs, it will not be as much to them il ordinarily would, for his wrist will not be entirely well and so, as a consequence, Shane will only be about half what he ordinarily is. Howard supporters are hoping with ali their nights that he will be enough to stop the wild rushes of the Panther backs if they start 70 carry the oval over the territory guarded 5y him.
 Since Acton returned to school just a little over two weeks ago, there are a lot of wise ones around the campus who are advancing che theory that a little thing like a vacation is mighty good for a football player, for, the last two fracases in which he has played, Speed has been putting up his best game of the season.
 The Bulldogs have an awful tough as- signment for November 20, but at the rate that they are going they have a fighting chance to come through with the much coveted victory, provided that they don't have anyone injured in the scrimmages that they are holding almost every day.

Bulldog ELeuen
 Is Working Hard
Howard Collegians Are Hoping With All Their Might That They Can Beat the
 Partners
By MAXWELL ALLEN

The charges of Coach Marshall are now working from 1 o'clock in the afternoon until it gets so dark that ball can't be seen, in desperate effort to get in condition for the onrushes of Birming- ham Southern, whom they will endeavor to stop in aDout two weeks from now. or. to be exact, on November 2O
 Towards oackfield is also trying for topnotch condition for the Panther Bull dog tilt, as they realize that the Bir- u.ingham Southern line which they will have to hit this year, is a different bunch from any that the Panthers have put out before. In previous years Bir- mingham Southern has generally had a good line, and this year the bunch is bigger and stronger than any the Pan thers have ever boasted of before and one that would do credit to any college. Knowing these things. the backfield of Howard is working like q bunch of beavers these days, for they are handi- capped by having a line in front of them which is much lighter than the bunch of huskies that will try to stop them.
 The Bulldogs were extremely lucky last Friday, for they did not have a single man put on the injured list by the powerful team which Mississippi College brought here to drag the coiors of the Bulldog in the dust. Another thing that the game Friday showed beside the ap- parent weakness of the line in some places, was that the backs of Howard are good on the defensive for many times during the game the fast hard hitting oackfield men of the visiting crew got through the line and would have gone across many more times than they did had it not been for the sure tackling of the backs.
 Stanley shane. the bis gentleman who has been out of the game for the past two weeks on account of broken wrist is having a fit a minute. for he will probably be allowed to play some

from the soft ones" to the tougher lighters. One fistic gladiator after an other went down before the vicious at- tack which kearns had taught him, Dempsey swept everything before him.
 As Dempsey's ring achievements gained more and more publicity the boxing game basked in the reflected glory Interest in the doings of boxers revived. There was talk about match ing Dempsey with Willard. But Will lard didn't want to come out of retire iuent. Kearns then went to Tex Rickard and smoked up" Rckard about the fight. Rickard talked things over-and coaxed Willard into signing articles.
 PROVES GREATNESS
 Dempsey's overwhelming victory over Willard convinced the fistic world that he was truly great. Soon afterward Carpenter knocked out Joe Beckett of England kearns saw a match in the. making right there. He smoked up" things in his usual style and he hazard ed the opinion that the fight between Dempsey and the Frenchman ought to take place in New York
 At once men prominent in the sport ing world took the cue They started an agitation for the restoration of box ing in the Empire state. Countless thousands of new enthusiasts-and re- claimed old ones-clamored for a fight law. And their plea has been answered.
 But no one has tossed the we'll earned bouquets at Jack Kearns for the mighty part he played in it. For, if it hadn't been for Jack Kearns of Cali fornia, Dempsey today might be a ship. builder Willard would be champion and interest in boxing would be at an ebb even lower than it was before kearns restored it to life

SeWdnee Tigers
 Showed Up We'll
 h 'Mooga Game
By CHARLIE W. UNDERWOOD

1 Sewanee, Tenn, November 9.-(Spe- cial)-If the Sewanee- University of Chattanooga game developed anything
 worthy of note2 it is the fact that Coach "Sike" Williams has a figh ing
 team. Outwei ghed by the Tigers though they were, the Moccasins never gave up the good old ship until ihe fought to the last, and a team that does not outweigh them will have hard sledding.
 The spirit shown by both teams and l by the rival crowds, for Chattaaooga had many rooters on hand, was ox-' tremely good. The game was rem ark ably free from disputes, and penalties were only for off side play, both teams infringing frequently in this respect.
 FUMBLES FREQUENT | Fumbling was in evidence on both sides. It was tumble by Chattaloo- ga that paved the way for the 'rig ITS first touchdown. And again, it was q tumble after the ball had been carried over the goal line that cost Sew lnee another score.
 Straight football in the main was the Tigers style of play. Trick plays were unnecessary when it was seen that the Moccasins had little chance of winning, and none were turned :t ose by the Bengals. Harper kicked fre- quently on the first down. and almost invariably gained on his rival punter. The Moccasins, in vain endeavor to score, tried a number of trick plays, but the Tigers were not to be caught mapping, except in the case of our old friend, the criss-cross. It must be ad- mitted that Coach Williams charges took the Tigers in on that play at least three times.
 Lawrie, the former Memphis star, played throughout the game at center. as the coach was taking no chance On injuring Stiyers' already sore leg. Law rie played a good game, and made a touchdown, deed not often voJch- safed a center. Cooper Litton and Harry Long, two more Memphians did good work, especially Long, who played 8 good part of the game at 'halfback.
 JIM SMITH STARS
 Jim Smith, who played fullback dur ing the second half, showed more drive than he has displayed this season This Birmingham boy was given the ball time after time in succession nd never failed to gain. He didn't seem to know when to stop, and once went 10 yards over the goal line before com ing to halt. He has power of f,ive in his legs, and he and Kenneth Coun- cil are making a pair to draw to at the fullback position. The old Baylor star, Blood" Miller. continued his good work at end. Few got around him, and then not for far The feature of the game perhaps was Jimmie Baird's 35- yard run for a touchdown. Baird, who halls from Nashville, and wei shs around 135, went in for Cook at quarter in the last period. On almost the first play he flashed around one end while the Chattanooga team were looking for the ball on the other side. He was dis covered, but although number of Chattanoogans had try at him. he could not be landed. He is very fast, and when he takes on more wei ght will be dangerous man.

Auburn, Move ber g. Especial. )-Interest in the Bir- mingham game s a tur d y against the powerful eleven from Washington and Lee uni versity is daily increasing and by the end of the week little else will be of much concern to the packers of the football team.
 A hard practice is scheduled for ev- cry available day this week, and Coach Donahue is leaving no stone unturned in the schedule of plays to be used upon that occasion.
 It will be a case of when Greek meets Creek with both teams spe- cializing in defensive play. Birmingham will have another chance to see real football game in the opinion of these who have watched the records of the two teams this year. The sting of the game with Georgia still rankles in the Tigers breasts, and Lexington, Va. would soon be a good place for Ln- loading the burden.
 At practice today the bleachers were filled with cheering mass of rooters, and tonight, led by the college band, there will be mass meeting in Lang don hall in which the entire student body will participate. At this rally Neal Johnson, for eight years the vet eran cheer leader of the college, will officiate, and everyone will get behind the team for the Saturday conflict.

The elder Kapp was active in poll
tics and organized a league of Ger
man-Americans for Fremont when
the latter ran for President on the
Republican ticket. Kapp later be-
came a friend and supporter of Lin
coin. He also was an intimate friend
of Carl Schurz and DR.. Abraham
jacob.
In 1852 he married the daughter of
the commandant of the fortress of
Coblenz in the old Hotel Napoleon,
Hoboken. She was born in Germany
and came here at his request for the
ceremony. They moved to this city,
where the present Chancellor and two
daughters were born.
The daughters married brothers
named Lichtenstein, who are at pres
ent engaged in the banking business
in Wall Street.
Wolfgang was sent to q private school,
which was conducted by Frenchman,
Adolph Douai, on the present site Of
the Hotel Astor.
While boy he refused to learn Ger
man, and despite all pleadings from
his parents and teacher declined to
study that language. His determina-
ton to speak English in preference to
German did not change when he was
twelve years old. Then his father, who
had since become rich, decided to take
him to Germany.
Leaving his wife and two daughters
here, the elder Kapp returned with his
son to Germany, where the latter
finished his education. He did not re-
turn to this country.
