TOUGH FIGHT To
PULLMAN THORNS

WHITING. Ind, Oct. 1.-THE Red
Crown football team made its hrst APP
pearance yesterday against the Thorns
of Pullman and game out on the Short
end of a 7 TO 0 score. Despite the loss
Of the game the showing pleased the
team and It's supporters. for in playing
the Thorns IL stacked up against a
team that not only has played several
games this year. but the members OF
which have played together for a num-
Der of years.
The Thorns fumbIed more than the
Red Crowns but at that fumbles were
not many, Eddie Pond was the shin
Ing light for the Red Crowns. The
Whiting boys had one real chance 10
score. Poor judgment in using L fNr-
ward pass TO make this touchdown not
only cost the Whitingites this ouch-
down. but brought the pal out on the
90 yard line and gave the ball TO tho
Thorns.
The Thorns scored their touchdown
in the third quarter by two forward
passes. one of which was good for
thirty yards and by driving off tackle.
The STANDARD oil boys usually sue
ceeded in keeping the Thorns from
completing their forward passes. Not
more IMAM one IN SIX Was SUCCESSFUL.
Johnny Sharp recovered a couple OF
Thorn fumbles and the Red Crowns
prohted thereby.
In the second quarter McShane tried
a drop-kick from the IS yard line but
failed. Eddie Pond saved Whiting
from a predicament ct the close Of the
first quarter. The Thorns lost the ball
on Writings ms yard line. Pond
signalled for q punt, but the pass was
poor and as the Thorns broke through
Pond not having time to punt. circled
the end for a gain of twelve yards.

up into fine shape before the races
broke down Under the heavy grind at
several points and was responsible for
several cars dropping out and for low

building the entire course viii be

that has ever been played IN Chicago,
not one man being injured and only
one penalty-for offside-being infict-
ed on either eleven. despite the fact
that both fought furiously for every
inch Of ground.
The Tigers were heavy favorites 1T
the start Of the game because Of the
numerous former college stars in their
lineup. but the Cardinals outplayed
them nearly all the way once worked
the ball to the three-yard line. the
closest either team came to scoring.
Most OF the play was around the CEN
ter of the field. with Paddy Driscoll for
the Cardinals and Johnny Barrett for
tile Tigers booting the ball away from
danger whenever necessary.
Drlscoll showed that he had lost
none of his old-time skill by tearing
off n couple of brilliant runs for Chris
ofIsrien's eleven. Ghee also shone by
making several long returns on punts
for the Tigers.

LAST OUTDOOR
SCRAP CARD
WAS THRILLER

Jack Sharkey of New York and Joe
5urman OF Chicago. brltamweight
contenders. brought the East Chicago
out-of-door boxing contests to 4 salts
factory conclusion Saturday afternoon
with an exciting ten round contest in
which neither could be given any de-
cisive advantage. At many times dur
Ing the fight the fans were brought to
their toes by furious milling and the
last round found every one satisfied
with the entire card.
Both the boys fought e good fight
although il wa left TO Burma to do
most Of the leading. Burman also
twice brought blood on Sharkey and
escaped any red traces from his en-
counters with Sharkey although the
little New Yorker was able To land
some heavy body blows during the
contest. The leading Of Burman and
the fact that Sharkey twice showed
blood was nough in the minds Of
many to give the Chicago boy a slight
shade but there were plenty Of others
who looked well to the hard body
punches driven home by Sharkey ana
were willing to concede Sharkey the
fight. Considering everything and in
fairness to both the battle should be
called 4 draw.
Burnan worked well with a left jab
to the nose or chin and even in the
FIRST round was able to start S~harkey's
nose bleeding Slightly. sharkey also
received a slight cut over the eye but
It was not bad enough to bother him
much. The Chicago boy worked well
at long range while Sharkey was the
more dangerous at close quarters.
Neither. however. seemed to have the
necessary steam for a knockout
In almos+ every round there was
plenty of milling but in a few the
c,fnching materially slowed up the
going and called numerous protests
from the fans. In the sixth the going
vas bad for Sharkey when Joe landed
c hot one on the jaw. For an instant
Il looked as though Jack was going TO
hit the canvas but he recovered and
w~eathered the bout. In the next round
the going was almost equally bad Tor
Burman and he did well to stick the
round.
The semi-windup Bud
Christiano OF Buffalo and Teddy Muir
ply was another swell battle even
though Teddy was outclassed in every
round. Chrlstiano was about as fast
as any fighter that has appeared In
the East Chicago arena. showed e%-
ce!lent foot work and placed his
blows well. Bud worked mostly on
Teddy's stomach and repeatedly land
ed his left with good effect. Then he
varied with a few rights to the face
and head SO that he won by a good
margin.
The preliminary six rounds made a
good starter for the show Phil Milo
substituted for Special Delivery Hirsch
z nst Andy Williams and put up a
good fight although he lost by a very
narrow margin. Both men tried for
knockout in every round. doing very
little boxing but sluggIng freely
Neither had the advantage until the
last round when Milo received a bad
cut over the right eye which covered
both fighters with gore.
The plans for the winter fights are
not very definite as yet although the
is contemplating building
a new structure in the corner of the
ball park near the box office. This
building will probably seat about 5000
and will be equipped for holding fights
all winter.

HERE THE RUB COMES.

The real brunt of the whole female labor
shortage really comes upon the house

worst of IL he really doesn't know any,
thing about IL. To be sure female labor is
high, and II Is not so easy 10 get as it was
once, but there are dozens of girls and
women who are willing to work in fac
tories TO one who is willing TO do washing
and ironing. There are scores of girls who
are willing to do more or less skilled work
in offices 70 the one who really wants to
take up the profession of housework, no
matter how good wages she NAV ask in
her capacity of houseworker.
And 1T isn't any easier to find a COM
Portable berth In boarding house or hotel.
The prices make this out Of the question
for most folks. In the meantime men
marry and plan to have homes of their
own. Did you ever hear Of a young man
who refrained from asking the girl he loved
80 marry him because he was afraid that
housekeeping for two might be too
arduous and he realized that as things
are now it Is well nigh impossible TO get
domestic help? And you almost never
heard of a woman who, otherwise inclined
to marry and have home of her own,
refrained just because of the domestic
help difficulty.
The fact is that most of them don t
know how difficult the situation makes it
until they have got right in the thick of it
and then there are so many compen-
sating joys about tit is such an in
teresting game of keeping even the
smallest, humblest house-that they
wouldn't advise any girl not to do as they

with his bag still on his shoulder, ran as
fast as his legs would carry him over the
fields for the woods.
Just as he leaped high stone wall
the bag caught in the limb on an over
hanging tree, and in trying to get il free
a big rent was torn in the bag, and out
came the wool, falling all over Mr.. Fox.
But the worst part was that he fell as
he went over the wall and caught his hind
feet in a vine, and there he was on the
ground, rolling over and over in the wool,
trying to get up.
When he did he looked more like q
lamb than a fox, but this of course he
did not know, and being frightened for
fear Mr.. Dog might he somewhere around,
he ran for home without stopping for the
bag.
II happened that Mr. Bear was out
that night looking for nice fat lamb,
and as il was not a very clear night when
he saw Mr. Fox running toward him he
thought he was a lamb.
Mr.. Bear hid behind rock, and when
Mr.. Fox came along he just pounced upon
him and carried him off.
He hugged Mr. Fox so close and tight
that he could not cry out to tell him his
mistake, and it was not until MIR. Bear
had him safe in the house that he let him
go.
When Mr.. Bear found out who it was
he was inclined TO be angry. for he thought
Mr.. Fox had played trick on him.
Il have a good mind to eat you, any
way" he growled.
But Mr.. Fox talked as fast as he could,
telling him just how it all happened, and
so, TO be sure. MIR. Bear went with him
to the wall, where he dropped the bag.
When he saw that he believed what Mr..
Fox had told him, and so they both sat
down and had a good laugh,

Mr.. FOX AND THE BAG OF WOOL.
MIR. Fox had been up to the farm for
his supper and he was carrying it home
when he happened to zee through the
trees some men by the river washing and
shearing sheep.
Now what can they be doing to those
poor cratures7" thought Mr.. Fox, who
was always inquisitive. II do believe

they would think it very cruel if some OF

That night Mr.. Fox took bag over his
shoulder and went over to MIR. Man
and found the wool and filled his bag;
then, thinking that midnight supper
would not taste bad, he went to the
poultry house and climbed in. -.
