took in that fight is fact that never can be established. for no one kept an accurate count But there are men who insist that at least % blows were struck per round, which means that 1000 blows struck the face or the body of each man before the twentieth round was over.
 CROWD GOES WILD
 The crowd. hopeful of seeing fast bat tie. was swept into delirium of fistic madness by that clash. It jumped to it's feet and then out of the chairs before half of the first round was through, and it never sat down again. The supporters of each man yelled to the fullest extent of their lungs and the Lenox A. c. was q bedlum unknown before in prize ring his tory, and never since equalled.
 The gladiators swept into the twen- tieth round, battered, bleeding and groggy, but with their fighting spirit un tanned. They dashed and tore away at each other, each trying to land the knock out. But it was impossible. Each man headed terrifcally, but on that night each seemed to be iinpervious to knockout smashes.
 And when the final gong banged the ref cree called it draw. a decision which met almost unanimous approval of the spectators.

Maher and Ruhlira. Battle.to q Drau ln Great Contest
BY JAMES J. coRBErr.


 OId-timers rank the clash between Peter Maher and Gus Ruhlin as one of tho g1 eatest, fights ever staged in New York under the old Horton law It occurred on May ,. 1899. in the old Lenox A. C. and went 20 rounds to a draw. with not a dull second in any one of the 60 minutes of terrific ring doing.
 Ruhin was big favorite with the bulk oi New York fans a. the time. Maher, de- spite several setbacks. still retained his legion of Irish admirers When Ruhlin drifted into New York. heralded by mo- tices of his greatness. the backs of the Irish began to arch, and they demanded that Peter Maher be given chance to show the ''upstart'' a few things about the fight game.
 Considerable eninity was caused be. tween the fighters before the gong rang through the medium of newspaper ar t;cles. Those who were promoting the l fight figured that the way to stimulate interest was to quote Peter one day as stating that he was going to knock Gus into the Atlantic ocean, and the next | day they would have Gus retorting that /, Potter was so soft that he {Gus) would drive the Irishman into the Pacific ocean | And so when the gong rang the two men leaped at each other. each intent upon battering the other into speedy op- 1 livion.
 | The two heavyweights started off at ] the same hurricane clip. They threw everything tlfey had into that first round. and it didn't seem humanly possible for either of them to continue the pace for q half dozen rounds, much less 20. But i the way they started was the way they ! finished. and in all the rounds between 1 there was cyclonic action. Maher wal the heavier hitter, but Ruhlin was the more scientific. Maher tried again and ;again to drive down Ruhlin with his fa- 1 nous right, but couldn't succeed He'd nuke three misses for every hit. and every time he missed Ruhlin was on top
 of him batteriEg away savagely.

Alabama Not
 Too Confident or q Victory.
Fly JACK FREEMAN

University, November 23,- Special. )-Undaunted by the close defeat handed them by the Georgia Bulldogs, the Crim- son warriors of Alabama will take on the delegation from Mississippi A. & M. at Rick wood on Turkey Day in the Crimson's last Southern Inter- collegiate Athletic Association dispute of the season..
 With so many traditions already up- set this season, it would be presumptu ous to attempt any prophecy of Thurs days game from the standpoint of previous scores.
 However that may be, Alabama can not be expected easily to forget her hard earned victory over the Mssis- sippi Farmers last year.
 Neither can she be criticised for ego- tism when she confidently expects to duplicate last years feat.
 This is not taken, however, to indi- cate that the Crimson warriors are re- 1axing in their preparations for Thurs days game.
 Far from it. With the gates barred to outsiders, Denny field this afternoon has been experiencing gruelling work, outs, and the varsity is getting down to business for the final clash of the season.
 The whole squad is in good condition and if the present cool weather cons tinues Coach Scotts men will show he Mississippi Aggies the scrap of their lives when they meet at Redwood Thursday.
 On Thanksgiving Day Birmingham will have it's last opportunity of sesing the great Alabama backfield in ac.ion, for next year at least two of the fa- nous quartet will not return to the Crimson field.
 For the last time Birmingham will have the opportunity of seeing the giant, Riggs Stephenson, display his genuine ability on the gridiron. Ste phenson is in prime condition and promises to give the best battle he has yet presented for the Crimson and White.
 Tram, Sessions and W. c. Baty. Bir- minghams contribution to the Cri naon tide, will make their bow to home audience Thursday. and will put up the same game battle that has character ized every engagement in which they have participated this year. Thursday should be a gala day for. Birmingham, with such brilli,nt gridiron contest within it's walls.

 Starksville, Miss, November 23.-(Special.) - Comparison of scores of former A. & M.- Alabama games shows that Alabama has the edge over the MaroonS i'll the total number of games won, but that Mississippi A. & M. has won a majority of the games that have been played during the last 10 years.
 In all six of the games that have been played between these two old rivals since 1911, when A. and M first came into prominence as one of the leading S. I. A. A. teams, the scores of the games have been close and the contests have been in class with the very best games played in the south.
 LAST YEARS GAME
 Last year Alabama beat the Maroons in a hair-raising finish in the second half. The first half resulted in a stand off, with neither team having any ad- vantage with the play in midfield throughout the period But on the open ing kickoff of the second half, Little, the Aggies' star halfback, caught the ball on his own twenty yard line and ran 30 yards through the whole Alabama team for a touchdown in one of the pret- tiest players ever seen at historical Rick wood park.
 This gave the Maroons a lead, which, for a time, seemed sufficient to win, but an A. and M. tumble deep in their own territory gave Alabama her chance and Stevenson carried the ball across the goal line for a touchdown, tieing the score, which was increased to a second touchdown late in the fast period when Alabama got away long forward pass for forty yard gain, taking the ball to the Maroon's eight yard line, where they braced and recovered the ball on downs.
 Alabama, however, broke through and blocked Bowers punt when he tried to kick from behind his own goal line and the Crimsons received the ball for a second score.
 OLD STARS MISSING
 While the Mississippi Aggies are minus some of their stars of last year, such as Carpenter, tackle; Henley, guard; and Russell, quarterback, they have some new men that have filled their places capably this season and, in McGowan and Davis, backs; besides Hough and Little, their two standbys of last season whom A. and M. fans believe are Just as good as Stevenson and Lenoir of AL abama; they have a quartet of back field stars whom they are relying on to give the Crimson and White busy aft ernoon.
 In the line, Blair, center; Huff, guard, and Askew and Wilson, tackles, have

 HeConfessed

Greenville, s. C., November 23. = Joe Jackson, suspended Chicago White Sox outfielder, in statement here today, ,des clared: i'll
 T have never confessed to throwing a ball game in my life and 1 never will" ss
 He denied his guilt of any crooked playing with the worlds series games in 1919 and announced h. mad retaineG counsel to defend him at his trial isss Cook county, Illinois, next January.
 CONTRADICT STATEMENT
 Chicago, November 29-Joe Jackson, Chicago White sox outfielder, made sl clean out-and-out confession to the Cook county grand jury that as threw the games in the 1919 worlds series, and that he received s5,ooop1 in cash for throwing them,' officials of the states attorneys office said to- night, when informed that the suspended outfielder denied confessing to game throwing for which he is now under ill-. d dictment. ,,.
 'Jacl1son's testimony was made under oath before the grand jury" said Judge c. A. Mcdonald, who had charge of the jury which investigated the baseball scandal 4...,
 If he denies that testimony when lie is brought to trial he will be guilty of perjury and could be prosecuted under that charge.''
 Other officials confirmed previous yeI- sions of Jacksons testimony in which he was alleged to have said he was prom- ised $20,o0o for throwing games, but re ceived only s5,oco and that he struck out or hit easy rollers when hits would havs meant runs for the Chicago team

Living Among Chaos
(From the Milwaukee Journal)

How quietly we take it, this over
thrown world Of ours! 1t seemed
that the most awful thing that could
happen would be the desertion OF her
place by woman. But these mornings
mother calls to father, "Get up and
get your breakfast" and when she ap-
pears she is dressed for the street
She must go out and foregather with
other women in a back room behind
well, tobacco shop. For she IS
ward heeler. The baby cries and
cries, and father feeds him from a
luke-warm bottle, but he cannot give
him his morning bath; he doesn't
know how. Besides, he must 60 to
work.
Jimmy and Mary start off for school,
the one with a great hole in his stock
ing, the other with her hair uncombed.
On the necks of both, high water mark
is plainly registered. But nobody
minds, for all the other children are
that way. Teacher doen't scold. She
has hobbed her own hair and doesn't
half listen to the lessons because she
is planning what to say in party
meeting.
At evening it is worse. Mother
smokes a big, black cigar and tells
father he's poor fish if he can't keep
baby quiet and get dinner on time.
Then she breaks out into an account
of how her crowd is going to lick the
pants off the other gang Of noodles.
That's the way she talks now. Sup
per doesn't suit her, and the words
she uses were never heard in that
home before. They reek of the alleys
and the old-time barber shop. She
bangs the doors as she goes out and
says not to wait up for her.
And we stand for it all without
amazement, for woman is enfran-
chised and we know just what would
happen. Curses instead of kisses
come from mothers lips, the family
is ragged, the children are dirty, the
meals are unspeakable. Refinement,
graciousness and sympathy are gone.
To men used to the comfort of old
time homes life seems hardly worth
I;y;no Cbaos is come.
No, dear reader, we haven't seen
these things, but we know they must
be, for that is what people who must
know have told US all along would
come.
