game that is scoreIess at this point.
in most situations of this kind, teams
usually direct a play out-of-bounds in
order to get the ball 10 yards into the
field of play so they may attack at
all points. But some coaches have
worked out a preferable solution. that
OF a somewhat spread offense for for
ward passing. This holds an advan-
tage because it crosses the defense,
which is figuring on opponents trying
to get out of bounds. 1t takes a fin
system of forward passing, well
thought out to use at this point. When

City on December 8. probably at
Butte, for the 1922 state interschol-
astic crown. Miles City won it's way
to the finals by giving Livingston a
o. to 6 %drubbing at Billings Saturday.
So this game appears as the second
post season obstacle between Great
Falls and the state title for the year.
The Blue and White has played the
hardest sort of a schedule to date,
winning 8 games in a row. The high
school students have been proud of
their football hopes this year, bat it
has not been until the last fortnight
that this support has spread much
beyond the confines of the school. Now
the team has demonstrated its worth
to a degree where a state title is
hanging fire. The attendance at Satur-
days contest was the greatest that a
football game has eve drawn in Great
Falls, and continued fair weather may
see a traffic jam Thursday which will
exceed the Harlowton gathering.
Light Practice Monday
A light practice was the order for
the Blue and White Monday. In fact.
there has not been more than one hard
scrlmmage session q week for the last
month. the coaches realizing that such
a long season might bring forth an
overturned and stale aggregation if
care were not taken. The result is
that the team is prime now and needs
only a continuance of the present
policy to finish going at top speed.
George Sohl, whose educated toe
has been the best scoring medium of
the season. was diligently at work
Monday afternoon on his placements
and is rapidly getting TO the point
where misses are a rarity. This work
on Soils part may be rewarded many
fold before the next 10 days are foot
ball history. 1t needs only a glance at
the big games of this year in the
collegiate sphere to realize what diff
ference a sure toe can make. Princeton
beat Harvard by a single field goal.
Brown won from Harvard the same
way, and Princeton was beating Yale
the same way on the same afternoon.
When two teams are about evenly
matched and cannot force a touchdown
over, the effort is converted into try
ing to get close enough so that the
kicker of the eleven can drop back
and boost the oval over the bar for
victory.
The Missoula team will probably
reach Great Falls Wednesday night,
although Coach Miller Of the Garden
city has not announced his travelling
plans as yet. Kelly, quarterback and
captain of the team. is the man to be
feared by the Blue and White. It vas
he who fooled the whole Butte team
with a trick play in the last minute
before the whistle and romped for a
winning touchdown that eliminated the
mining city eleven from the Western
district.

BECKETT MAY
FIGHT GEORGES
NLUNN0NTOWN
Dope Is That Winner of Bout
Will Battle Jack
Dempsey.
By McGANN
Especial c~orresponden. OF The Tribunsl

Copyright, 1922. By Great Falls Trihune1
New York, Nov. 26.-Word from the
other side of the ocean indicates that
announcement will shortly be made
of the matching of Joe Beckett and
George Carpenter for a fight in
London early in December. The dope
is that the winner will meet Jack
Dempsey in the British capital some
time after the first of the year.
At least this is the angle the Brit
ish promoters are playing. But Tex
Richards, who as new base of opera
tons apparently has clinched the new
Yankee baseball stadium, may have a
word or two to say about this. Talk
of his bringing Harry Wills and Jack
Dempsey together has more basis now
that it has had since last election day.
1t is said that Governor-elect Smith Is
not opposed to mixed bouts. Past
Governor Miller has always been so
opposed.
Not Much Action
As this situation stands at present
nothing but the disinclination of one of
the other to get into the ring would
cause the fight to fall by the wayside.
Or course public opinion against the
white and black man might sway the
new governor to give heed to the well
known vox populi. So far as that
goes. there is no doubt that q storm
of protest would arise were he two
to be matched. If it were not effec-
tive in preventing, the match then-if
things break right-would be a fine
attraction. The thing that looks SICK
est in the heavyweight situation in this
country is lack of building up activi-
ties on the part of parties who might
be interested in staging a champion
ship bout. Neither Beckett nor any
other heavyweight is being brought
forward and touted and played up gen
orally as a future one for Dempsey.
Maybe Floyd Johnson
FLOYD johnson may get into the
limelight later in the winter, but just
now he and every one associated with
him are playing possum.
Georges Carpenter IS reported by
Americans who have seen him in the
course of his present European tour.
to be looking fine. He has gained in
weight and recovered the spirits ne
lost when Sikh whipped him into sub
mission a month ago. He is confident
he can repeat his knockout victory
over Beckett, who is riding a high
horse these days. He believes he can
surely repay the Frenchman tor put
ting him to sleep the last time they
met.

Move Dual Meets
Captain Campbell, President John
Newton Pharr of the Track Athletic

that track athletics can be expanded

Il major intercollegiate sport. The
addition of the interscholastic cross
country meet, the senior and junior
A. 4. Y. and the addition of more regu-
lar dual and triangular cro%ss-country
events for the varsity team this fall
have resulted in the keenest interest

Great Northern to
Go on Sen,i-AnnuaI
Divid lend Basis
Word That No Action Had
Been Taken on Quarter
ly Payment Results in
Heavy Sale of Stock

Louis w. Hill, chairman Of the
Great Northern Railway, announced
after & meeting of directors yester-
day that Great Northern, in common
with several other roads, like the
Chicago, Burlington e. Quincy, the
Chicago & Northwestern and the 500
Line, would be placed on semi-an-
ments February ! and August l Of
each year.
The first news to reach Wall Street
of the meeting was that no action had
been taken on the quarterly dividend
of 1$l per cent usually declared at
this time of the year. This resulted
in heavy selling of the stock, which
broke on the Stock Exchange from so
to 1878. Northern Pacific, which with
the Great Northern owns the majority
Of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy,
also showed weakness, declining from
S2A to rs.
After thc official announcement Of
the action of the Great Northern di-
there was Il substantial recovery from
the low quotations of the day. The
earlier weakness spread throughout
the entire railroad list. Commenting
on the change in the date for declaring
dividends, Mr. Hill said
at is hoped that the regular Z per
cent basis will be continued and that
312 per cent semi-annual dividend will
be paid on August i, but, of course,
final consideration of that dividend
will not be given by the directors until
some time in June. BY that time con-
dtions should be more settled and the
directors will be better able to ap-
praise the business year of 1922.
"The Great Northern's earnings are
always relatively low and expenses
high during the winter months; also
at so early date as the middle of
March, when the May ! dividend must
be acted upon, agricultural conditions
unknown. These have been among the
controlling factors in deciding on the
semi-annual basis. 1t is particularly
advantageous this year to defer action
until June"
Mr.. Hill said that business was i'm
proving in the West mainly because
the buying power of the farmer has
been enhanced by the increase in COM
modify prices.
Ralph Budd, president of the Great
Northern, who was also in New York
yesterday attending the meeting Of di-
rectors, said that car loadings in jan
uary and February showed an increase
of about 15 per cent over the CORE
spending months a year ago. There
was no increase in gross earnings,
however, because of the lower freight
rates.
Mr.. Hill said that the Great North
ern is planning to spend between $10,-
100000 and $15OO0,000 on improve
ments this year, including double
tracking, maintenance, etc.
