BENNY'S teeth
SEEKING title
Aspirants Think Leonard's Mo-
lars Should Be Healed
by Now.

Copyright. 1922. by The Great Falls Tribune
New York, Oct. 24.-Benny Leon
ard will soon have to come out of his
cocoon and fight. Deep rumblings
against the lightweight champions in
ertia as far as ring engagements are
concerned have started among certain
of the fistic gentlemen who aspires to
Benny's honors. These padded fist
gents are saying sharp and hard words
about Leonard. The first intimation
of the rurnbling reached the New York
state boxing commission today
The mutterings of the aspirants.
mostly lightweights, have not yet tax
commission for action, but the protes-
en- the form of formal demands on the
tations are couched in strnog terms.
nevertheless. 1t is likely any time
now that all this will take the form of
vigorous demand that Benny either
spend more time with his dentists or
be counted out by the commission.
1t does seem that Leonard has had
time to recover from the effects of
the hammering on his teeth. There
isn't any question about the way the
champions teeth were completed
mussed. However, the boys who are
anxious to take a waIlop at Leonard
and his crow are saying that all this
was some time ago. They say. and
some of the dental experts say also,
that under proper and constant treat
men his jaw should have been healed
before this. It is prefectly possible
that the injury to his mouth was
worse than has been made known
it might be that the jawbone was
slightly featured. If so, Benny ought
to tell folks about it instead of keep
ing so many heir presumptives on the
anxious seat. He owes it to himself
as well as to the c~ontenders.
This appears to be particularly true
in view of the persistent reports re-
ports regarding Leonard's inability
to make the lightweight poundage and
still keep his old wallop. Increasing
weight is a thing that will happen TO
the best Of them and if If is true that
Leonard has reached. Or is closely ap-
preaching. the time when he cannot
make the weight without noticably
weakening himself, the very best thing
he can do is to realize it, tell the
world and climb into the next division.

percentage Football" Taught
to Championship Team of
Californians.

Berkeley, Oct. 24.-"Percentage
football is the name given by Coach
Andy Smith to the gridiron game he
teaches to the championship Univer-
sity of California team here. And
since 1919 Smiths football methods
have been batting 1t 1000 per cent,
for his team did not drop a game in
1920 and 1921.
Make the other fellow work in his
own territory and wait for him to slip"
Smith said recently in explaining his
system. When he slips be sure that
your head is up and that you are ready
to take advantage of the break And
the California p~unters follow Smiths
instructions to keep the play in the
other fellows field.
Many fasteners argue that the
California system is not good because
it lacks in defensive strength. Smith
admits that his system does not call
for the stopping of every line plunge
out in the middle of the field. 1t does
call, however, for the stoppage of line
plunges and everything else when the
California goal is threatened.
Critics point out that many first
downs are made against California.
Smith admits this but shows that few
of the first downs made by the oppos-
ing teams are made in CALIFORNIA; ter
ritory.
Smith thinks that his team has the
edge on the other Pacific coast confer
ence teams this year. He is not salts
fled, however. for the eleven, he thinks,
can still perfect its play a great deal.
For one thing. the California line is
not charging as it should.

WOOD IN FAVOR
OF SPORTS
ISLAND PEOPLE
Governor General Points Out
Value in Every Crisis of
Training.

Manila, p. l., Oct. 3.-Expressing his
approval of athletic sports in general
and wrestling and boxing in particular,
Governor General Leonard Wood has
announced he hoped every city and town
in the Philippine Islands would be
combed in search of u strong team to
compete in the Fur Eastern games at
Osaka, Japan. next May.
Il believe in clean sport and ath-
letic training" said General Wood,
sound athletic training makes better
men physically. enltivates the spirit of
fair play and the idea of give and take.
1t increases Il mans self-confldence and
builds up a physical condition in order
to attain which there must be an OBJ
servance of self-restraint, good habits
and sound moral principles.
Favors All Around Training
"All around athletic training should
be built up in the Philippines in every
possible way, especially in the schools.
I wish every boy in the islands knew
how to box and to wrestle, and to do
both well. They would be better citl-
zens. The tremendous increase in the
morale, the self confidence of a man
that is engendered by boxing. wrestling
and other hand to hand sport is of in
~calculable value in any crisis of his
life.
with reference to the Far Eastern
games to be held in Osaka next year.
we ought to search every city. every
municipality and every barrio in the
Philippines for good material. There
is no reason why there should not be
and there is every reason why there
should be a trial in all the schools,
beginning with the university and high
schools, to pick out boys who have
special qualifications and who promise
to make good material to be worked
on and developed with a view to par
.ticipation in the Far Eastern games.
Says Games Mean Much
The winning of these games means
a great deal. 1t will mean that the
Filipinos have physical courage, endur-
ance and skill to m extent which en-
ables them to trump in competition
over all other Eastern peoples. If we
take hold of this Systematically we shall
be able to get a team which will be q
sure winner, and this we must do if
possible.

AQUATICCOACH
FROM AMERICA.
FRENCH DESIRE
Success Of Yankees at Games
i'm 1919 Leads to Idea of
Europeans.

New York. Oct. 24-France is deter
mined to make q, fine showing in the
next act Of Olympic games which
take place in Paris during the spring
and summer of 1924. In addition to
the ambitions the French have in the
world of track and field, football, ten
mis- and other sports they are now in
the market for an American swimming
coach, according to Allen II. Muir,
international secretary of the Olym-
pic games committee, who is in this
country at present promoting interest
in the 1924 meeting.
Muir said he had been instructed
by the French committee to select an
American swimming mentor before re-
turning to France. The success of the
American swimmers in the inter-al-
lied games in Paris in 1919 and one
year later in the Olympic games and
at Antwerp impressed the French Of
ficials in such a manner as to make
them willing to loosen the purse
strings to d considerable extent if this
will insure them a good all round rep
resentative team in the world Of
aquatics.
Unless they come too high entirely
for our pocket books | will engage a
coach for our swimmers within the
next few days. Muir said. AL
though we were pleased with the work
and results obtained by our American
track and field coaches in 1920, only
French coaches will be engaged for
the conditioning and preparation of
our men in 1924" Muir said in speak
ing of the chances and aims of the
French in track and field in the next
set of world wide athletics contests,
This is contrary to what the com
mittee had in mind last year, but the
rate Of exchange and other causes
have led the French officials to change
their minds and give II native
coaches and trainers a chance to show
what they can produce in the way Of
winners in 1924"

Special to The Tribune.

Special to The Tribune.
Bozenan, Oct. 24.-The Montana
State college freshmen team dealt out
a surprise TO the football fans of the
states Tuesday when they defeated the
Idaho tech varsity here 10 to II. The
idaho team came to Bozeman after a
close game with the state university
varsity and all expected the heavier in
vaders to defeat the Bobkittens.
The Idaho team made more yardage
than the frosh but they were unable
to advance the ball on several occa-
sions when a few more yards meant a
touchdown. Holmes of the Idaho team
was the outstanding man of the game
on both offensive and defensive play.
was closely followed by Hurt and
Place for honors.
Frosh Score First
F. Romney and F. Meyer were the
star ground gamers for the frosh. Riv-
ers and Dobeus played stellar games
in the line. In the first quarter Rom
ney made the first touchdown but fail
ed to kick goal. Holmes then crossed
the line and Place failed to kick goal,
making the score six to six. In the

tumble and raced 80 yards for a touch
down. Romney again missed goal. A
little later in the same period Holmes
reciprocated and ran 35 yards for a
counter and Place again missed the
goal. The half ended with the score
IL to II.
In the third quarter Romney tried a

by Rivers q yards from the Idaho
goal. After making first down once
the ball was given to f. Meyer and
he took it across. Romney kicked the
goal and ended the scoring of the
game. q
Pass ~Uncompleted
In the last quarter the Idaho team
carried the ball to within three yards
of the frosh goal. There they lost it
on an incomplete forward pass over
the goal line. From the 20-yard line
f. Romney and f. Meyer took turns
making long end runs TO within Is
yards of the Idaho line where they
lost the ball on a tumble. Idaho kick
ed back and only time cut the fresh
men short on another rush to the goal.

Ignorant Critics Get
Word of Condemnation
in Houghton's Book

Boston. Mass, Oct. a4-In his new
book on football P. D. Haughton, the
former Harvard coach, fires a shot
at ten unsportsmanlike behavior IN
the stands. He says:
AT every game of football there
sits. usually within earshot, an inndi-
vidunl who PERSISTS in venting his
feelings against the players on the
field by a continual line of chatter.
His creed appears to be that If his
team gains or prevents its opponents
from gaining, all is well. But when
one of his team apparently misses 4
tackle, he sums up the situation by
the word rotten
That man either has never played
football himself or is ignorant Of the
fact that tackles have been. are, and
will be missed as long as football is
played.
Further. he fails to discover that
most tackles are missed not through
the cIumsiness of the would-be tack
Ter but through the cieverness of the
runner. On another occasion when
our interferers fail to clean up the
opposing end rush. he caustieally re
marks, pretty bum attempt not IN
the least recognizing that the end IN
question had by the use of his hands
on the interferers' bodies succeeded III
Kidding himself of them and by a su-
perb tackle downed the Gunner for a
loss. The lesson he should learn Is TO
give credit when and where it belongs

pared with the strength authorized un.
der the National Defense Act of 1920,
and the personnel Of the Navy has suf-
fered corresponding reduction. War
is a piker compared with public econ.
oIny in reducing the military strength
kof the nation.
1t is interesting to compare this per
capita tax Of $1,000 for the upkeep of
the Federal Government with certain
examples of municipal and State tax
alton. For instance, the New York
City budget for 1921 totaled $323,488,-
s57 imposed upon a population of S.
$50 900, or a per capita of $57.56. The
New York State budget was $145,79S,.
093, imposed upon population of 10,-
3S5, 900, or a per capita for the State
of $14.O4. OF course the metropolis
shared in that also. The aggregate Of
the city budgets Of New York, San
Francisco. st. Louis, and New Orleans
in 1921 was $5O8, 8,469.521 imposed upon
an aggregate population of 9,9S8. 500 or
5000 per capita. The aggregate of
the States in which these cities are 10.
Gated was $271,S34.Ssi imposed upon a
population of 25.499. 500, or s1O66 per
capita. If we should set aside the ex-
traordinary appropriations and consid-
er only the appropriations for running
the Federal Government the per capita
would be s11.S2, or not much greater
than that of the five States.
Included in the Federal Appropria-
tions for 1923 are $256.O0O.OO0 for the
military activities of the War Depart
ment or per capti of only $241, and
1894 .OOO,0 900 for the Navy, or a per
capita of $2.77-or $51S per capita as
our national insurance. II we assume
that the State and municipal budgets
cited are about the same this year as
they were in 1921-they are probably
larger-we would have per capita
tax for them of 5000 plus $10.66, or
s61.56, plus the Federal per capita,
$4,000 or an aggregate OF $91.56-or
55.6 per cent for municipal, 11.64 per
cent for State and 32.76 per cent for
Federal taxation; while the per cent
of total average per capita for the
Army would be 2.63 and for the Navy
3,02, or Sc per cent for both. Certain
ly this is an economy in nation de-
fense which strains the factor Of safe
ty to the breaking point.
