DROGRESS Of palaveisng between the District
2 Of Columbia and Maryland for automobile
reciprocity seems satisfactory.
Although the desired end Is liable to be attained
through gasolene tax which will work some hard
ship both sides Of the District line. few WASH
ington owners will not be thankful.
Maryland, with its excellent roads which
stretch almost indefinitely through countryside rich
in natural beauty and historic associations, is the
natural touring ground for Capital residents. You
can slip across the State line at half dozen places
and not realize it until you find yourself trapped
in the harsh road laws Of Maryland with fine in
prospect.
To Prince Georges and Montgomery County
people the District must appear in much the same
light. This city is their natural business center
Were automobile reciprocity in force hundreds oi
these probably would trade in Washington stores
As it is they drive over to Baltimore, quite few
miles further for most Of them rather than pay for
two licenses
Both counties are somewhat the richer for fines
levied iawbreaking Washington drivers during
the past few years. We venture the guess, how
ever that they have lost twenty-fod the amount oi
these fines in trade for their stores gas stations and
garages.
Many hot summer Sunday it seems if all
the auto traffic Of Washington is concentrated in
Rock Creek Park on the Speedway. Folks seek
ing country air and country sunshine rewarded
with headache fumes from the exhaust of con-
gested motors. And most of the cars to be found
in these places have only District licenses.

New York, N. Y, Nov. 18.-There
is one point about Benny Leon
ards present enforced retirement
from the ring that makes the situa-
ton easier for him than it other
wise would be. His two greatest
rivals are today putting on weight
even faster than he is. Lew Tend
Ter would certainly have to per-
spire some to fight at the light
weight limit; fact long known.
But now it is becoming equally
we'll known that Charley White is
climbing up into the aldermanic
class.
1t is whispered today that Char
ley had six pounds ON Sid Marks
when the Chicagoan slowed Sid
away at the Garden recently and,
at that, White weighed in at 1873
the afternoon of the bout. Sid
Marks, by the way, looked like "a
fine lightweight until White sent
him to sleep and thus softened him
up for Joe Tiplitz, who put over
the sleep wallop about a minute
after the bout, which took place in
Philly, started.
There was considerable unfavor-
able comment going the rounds to-
day anent one Jack Dempsey's
price for performing.
Jack and his manager are said
to be holding out stubbornly for q
quarter of a million cold cash for
a fight with Beckett. OF course,
no English promoter would think
Of offering that much. And the
writer learned today that very
shortly Chairman Muldoon of the
boxing commission will have a
heart to heart talk with Dempsey.
The heavyweight champion has
made mighty good citizen since
he beat Carpenter, but he can't af-
ford to be too grasping. He was
cleared of charges of evading the
draft during war time, but the fact
remains that Jack didn't go to war
when he might have, and that the
fact still sticks in the threats OF
some Of those who would like to
see him superseded. 1t viii be too
bad If Dempsey disappoints his
friends by being a gold digger
champion.
The death Of Richard Fox awoke
old memories of the fighting game
today. Fox was editor and pub
Usher Of one of the best known
sporting publications in America
He arranged the famous Sullivan
Kilrain battle. His donations Of
prizes to fighters went close to a
million dollarss The belts he gave
to winners Of noteworthy ring bat
ties were for years emblematic Of
many championships.

Urbana, Nov. 18-When Illinois
and Ohio meet, then come the
thrills. Their annual engagement
has become such a-nationa1 classic
that there ID just az much interest
in the meeting Of the fighting Il1ini
and Buckeyes next Saturday, Nov.
rs, as IL they were In the cham
pionship finals.
It would be no new experience
for Bob Zuppke, Illinois famous
little coach, and DR.. Wilce to be
battling for Big Ten champion
ships. Their coaching careers at
Illinois and Ohio both began back
In 1913. Since that time each has
won the championship Of the con-
ference three times. But Zuppke
has a shade on his Buckeye rival.
The ILLINOIS coach has also tied for
a championship.
They Have Hogged It
From 1913 on, the only confer
ence teams except Illinois and Ohio
to win championships have been
Chicago, victor in 1913, and Iowa,
1921 champion. Minnesota tied
with Illinois for first honors in
1915.
Zuppke's Him. in addition to
this deadlock. were supreme in
1914, 1918 and 1919. Wilce's Buck
eyes were kings of the conference
in 1916, 1917 and 1920. Consider
ing these facts it would seem that
neither Illinois nor Ohio has much
complaint.
There are two Illinois-Ohio
games famous in football an4als-
the battles Of 1919 and 1890.
Bob Fletcher's Goal
In 1919 Zuppke led the Illini to
Columbus to battle for the cham
pionship. "Chick" Harley cap
tained Ohio and it was his last
game. Illinois had lost its crack
place kicker, Ralph Fletcher, by in
juries. No foeman had crossed

Dutch" Sternaman, by a thrill
ing run behind wonderful interfer.
ence, spoiled that boast, but Hi.

the third period Harley made q
superb pass to the very threshold Of
the Illinois goal and Ohio scored
kicking goal.
The fourth period came and sped
With five minutes to play the Hi.
nj took their ball on their own 20
yard line. Three successful passes
Walquist to Carney, put the ball or
Ohio's 20-yard line. Bob Fletcher
Illinois quarterback, had never
| place kicked in a game, but he
booted the ball over the bar. There
was just time for Ohio to receive
the kickoff and execute pass
which vas intercepted, when time
was called. Illinois won, 8 to Z
and took the championship.

a good. clean fashion, having no
injuries on either side. The visit

the result would indicate a runa-

to watch from the sidelines.

Augustana kicked off and Eu-

down in the first few minutes. Pat

ka made another touchdown in the
first quarter. Whroughton, Eu-

In the second quarter there was
no scoring, but the playing was
done in Augustana territory. In
the third quarter Eureka scored
two touchdowns, the first being
scored after Eureka had only two
downs. The last one was made in
the last few minutes of play when

the playing was in the center of

halfback, ran around left end for a

but three minutes to play and Pat

a perfect drop kick, making the
score. Eureka. SO; Augustana, 0.
