A. r. TEARNEY Is
FOR DIVISION OF
THREE-EYE CLUBS

In communications directed to
club officials of the Three-Eye
league. President A r. Tearney of
Chicago suggests the possibility of
a division of the Three-Eye circuit
in 1922. 1t is proposed tor bring the
matter to the attention of the
league at the annual meeting in
Chicago sometime next month.
President c. w Mueller of the
Rock Island Fans association re-
turned yesterday from Chicago. In
a talk with Tearney, the league
prexy is said to have expressed
favor of separating the northern
and southern cities of the circuit,
permitting the latter to enter the
Central league and leaving the
north free to take in four Iowa
cities and retain the name of
Three-Eye
Moline's attitude toward the
change has been carefully conceal
ed, and while Rock Island is in
clined to favor it, this city feels
thta both must stand together, one
way or the other.

That Douglas park viii be taxed

will turn out in drOVCs for sight

a great ground gamer because his

College Park, Md, Oct 27.-The
University of Maryland has not the
greatest football team in the coun-
try but it boasts the best punter
in our fair land in Brooke Brewer.
its crack right halfback.
That Brewer is able to kick
farther than any other booter in
the United States is the opinion of
all coaches who have seen this
great punter in action. In all the
games of last season and this year
his kicks have averaged better than
60 yards and some of his spirals
have f1oated distance of over 70
yards.
Brewer, who is champion Splinter
of the south, and who has a record
of 9 AS seconds, for the century
dash. is not a big fellow as many
would think from his great booting
performances but weighs 1874
pounds and is only feet 5 inches
tall. However, he has the knack
of getting the ball off for great dis
tances Just as some light men have
the knack of putting the 16-pound
shot or throwing the hammer can
toss those spheres for great dis
tances.
Not only do Brewers great spir-
ais carry far but they are so high
in the air that his ends always have
time to get down the lofts, and run
backs of any great distance are
seldom made

PITT TEAM HAS TOUGH SHEDDING

Pittsburgh, Pa--The University
of Pittsburgh team faces the hardest
part of its schedule from now on
The shedding has not been as easy
thus far as has usually been the
case with Panther fans. In the sec
ond game of the year Warmers men
ran up against tartar in the pow
erful Lafayette eleven, and, though
outplaying their rivals, went down
to defeat by a 10 score. A week
later West Virginia was defeated
by a margin of but one touchdown
and then in the poorest exhibition
of football ever shown by a Pitt
team the University of Cincinnati
team, which should have proved an
easy foe, held Pitt to a 21-14 score.
Then Pitt began to train for SYRIA
cuse. The remaining games on the
Pitt schedule are those with Penn,
Nebraska, w. & ]. and Penn State,
all of whom have shown great form
to date, with the exception of the
slow-developing Penn squad.
Pitt is offering no alibis for her
comparatively poor showing to date
this year, for followers of the
team are convinced that the old po-
tential strength is still there and
that the coming games will see the
Panther steam roller oiled up and
going strong. But two men were
lost from the varsity last year, and
the Panther freshman team ranked
with the best in the country. There
fore material is not lacking.

shifted from the center position,
where he was named All-America9

Lake Forest, Ill, Oct. 27.-Lake
Forest academy is making a strong
effort to live up to the record it
made last year, that, of having
been defeated in only one prep
game throughout the entire year in
all four major sports Last year
the academy won all its football
and basketball games, carried off
first place in the Stage meet, and
lost but one baseball game.
They have kept that record clean
so far this year. The schedule this
year is harder than ever before
undertaken by the school. River

ERNIE RICEIS
LATEST BRITON
after LEONARD
Claimant to Engiand'S Lightweight
Title. He Picks Tough Foe
in Freedman.
BY HENRY L. FARRELL.

(Unlted Press staff Correspondent
New York, Oct. 27.-Stringing
along in the procession of British
sport kings that have staIked across
the American field this year. comes
now a fight champion. Ernie Rice,
an English-Italian, on the British
population sheet as Ernie Ricco. is
here with the Lonsdale belt as a
voucher that he is the Lightweight
champion of the Isles.
Rice came over in an unofficial
capacity With painful memories
of what happened to Joe Beckett,
Jimmy Wilde, Ted Lewis. ct al,
London would not give the light
weight champion official considera-
ton as a national delegate TO IN
seat Benny Leonard. However.
Rice believes he has a chance to do
it His first move to prove his
claim To class comes tomorrow
night in the garden when he starts
a 15-round bout with Sailor Fried
man, the best 135-pounder in Chi
cago and one of Americas ranking
battlers.
The EngIishman must feel sure
of himself TO pick out the Windy
City boy for his first big exhibition.
Americans usually smile when q
British fist champion is announced
but from what mas been seen OF
Rice in this country he has nothing
but a national connection vita
Beckett & Co.
Rice showed courage when ne
picked out Ritchie Mitchell, tae
Milwaukee lightweight, for MS
American Debut He put his eioo"
twice in the way of one OF -dlLcL-
ellis right handlers and the hlWau-
kee boy had TO retire with q nroAeA
arm.
1t was a victory OF the fuke va
riety but Rice removed doubts as
to his ability by handing Le"
Tender, the Philadelphia ne|sDo!,
two artistic trimmings in front UL
his hometown folks. If the BrlusI-
er gets over the Friedman hurd!e
he can claim good moral GROUNDS
for presenting his card 10 Benny
Leonard. Friedman alone remains
as a logical American contender Iof
a bout with the champion reno
Ter has passed out of the picture
and Rocky Kansas is not taken 50
seriously now. The Chicago D0s
was to have met Leonard last sum
mer in Benton Harbor, but NE
for some reason became
and the bout was called
of.
