BORDER QUIET

CALEXICO, May 14.-(3 p. ny
All is quiet today in Mexicali across
the international line from here, after
last nights series Of rumors which
threatened for time to cause trouble.
Governor Cantu has apparently won
the upper hand in his attempt to keep
his rebellious subjects in hand and no
more trouble is expected until this
evening, when it would surprise no one
if the flame of revolt broke out anew.
The international line was opened
this morning as usual and except for
a closer scrutiny of passports, there
was no apparent difference in today
and any preceding days.
Soldiers of Gov. Cantu are about
evenly divided it is said in their al
legiance to Gov. Cantu and President
Carranza and to General Obregon. The
populace while not exhibiting much
curiosity, apparently favors the new
revolutionary movement.

COCHRAN'S CONTRACT

LONDON, Jan. 2-Commenting on the
offer of c. 3. Cochran, the British fight
promoter, to wager 100000 that he has
Georges Carpenter sewed up with a
binding contract. Nate Lewis of Chi
cago said:
II do not deny that Cochran has a
binding contract with Carpenter, but ac-
cording to the statement of the French
mans manager, Deschamps, made to me
in the presence of three interpreters and
several promoters, the contract is bind
ing only until Feb. THAT there is a
clause in the contract which says that
if Cochran is unable to sign Jack Demp-
sey for a match with Carpenter before
February the Frenchman will be free to
sign up with any one who has got
Dempsey.
"Deschamps not only made state
ment to me to this effect, but has told
other British and French promoters the
same thing, and he ought to know. Else
why should there be such great compe-
tition among the French and British pro
motors to get Dempseys signature? If
Cochran has an ironbound contract, why
doesn't he make it public, instead of
being forced to raise the ante for Demp-
sey by the bids made by other pro-
motors 2"

Freddie Church, Sub,
Now in Hall of Fame

PASADENA, Cal, Jan. 2.--Clear a
place in the football hail of fame for
Freddie Church. The long, lanky substi-
tute fullback placed himself among the
top notchers who brought home the ba-
con for Harvard and the east in the in
Sersectional football game here New
Years day with Oregon.
Church was given his big chance in
the second quarter. Capt. Bill Steers
OF Oregon gave the first score of the
contest to the westerners when he booted
a drop kick from the 15-yard line
Ralph Horween's arm was broken and
Church was called to take his place at
the neet Eddie Casey on the end, placed
the Crimson within striking distance
The nrst pass was started on Harvard's
own 4O-yard line. Murray shot the ball
TO Casey, who reached the Oregon So
yard line before being downed
Another pass to Casey placed the ball
on the 14-yard line. Casey advanced an
other yard through tackle and then they
called on Church. The fu back was
given the ball on Harvard's kick forma-
ton. lie took the ball on a direct pass
and rounded left end. Several Oregon
players grabbed at the fleeing fullbaek
but were unable to down him. He crossed
the line and placed the ball directly be-
tween the goal posts A. Horween kicked
goal, giving the eastern team the extra
point which won the game. Later in the
same period Manerud made the other
three points scored by Oregon. He drop
kicked from the 30-yard line. With the
confidence given them by the 1-point
lead Harvard frightened up during the
remaining two periods and held the one
point advantage.

Jimmy Advised Chick

There is q certain lure about the ring
which causes nine out of ten boxers
to end ANONYMOUSLY brilliant career
after they already have realized they are
through.
1t was in Detroit not more than IF
teen months ago when little Chick Hayes,
he former Indianapolis bantam. visited
his old friend, Jimmy Anderson, Hoo
sier lightweight star at one time. Both
boys we're wearing the blue Of the navy.
Jimmy haS gone into retirement. Chick
was picking up a few iron men here
and there whenever he could obtain
furlough. The latter's face began to
show more than ever the wear and tear
of the roped arena. Anderson looked
him over and alphabetically said:
"Chick, old pal, why don't you throw
the gloves away-you're through. Amy
when l felt myself slipping it didn't
take me long to duck out of the game
Me for the safe and sane"
Chick Only smiled. He wasn't ready
to leave the game which he had followed
fer more than ten years. He believed
he was still good, and by chance he
might have felt that Jimmy wasn't ens
tirely through
A couple of weeks ago Jimmy Ander
son was knocked out In the third round
Ily Harvey Thorpe in ST. Louis. 4
couple of days ago Chick Hayes fought
il great twelve round draw with a SEN
s;iMonal boy named FitZsimmons in BOs-
Psekey Mcfarland is one of the few
boys who retired from the ring and did
not return to have a beautiful career
spoiled in q few rounds.

: CHARLES LOGAN .

Freddie Church and Manerud won for
themselves places among the tables.
In the thirG period Manerud, taking the
place of Bill Steers, kicked a field goal
for Oregon that put them within an Inch
Of the mark.
Both Casey and Steers, who were
counted upon for spectacular work,
failed to get the spotlight for feature
work. Both fumb1ed frequently. Steers
hadn't much of a chance, however, as
he was forced to retire early in the game
with injuries, and Skeeter Manerud, the
125-pound youngster. took his place. Both
lines played mediocre bali. Ralph
Horween and Steers both had kicks
blocked when the forwards broke
through. The Oregon line INDICATED it
self in the final minutes of the play,
however, by holding Harvard for downs
on the one yard line.
OF course the east is entitled to be
joyous over the victory. But. in the
midst of 1t there Is the fact that Harvard
is not the champion. Harvard can go
out and play as a Harvard team but 1t
can't carry the colors of the east be-
cause it is not the best in the east.
