gest rivals of the city, Parkside and
Defiance will lock horns in a mat

eighth GAME
AGAINST HIGH
Wenonah Gets Away Easily
With 18 to 0 Contest
Over Locals
ALEXANDER GETS
INTO EVERY PLAY

wilmington High School football
gladlators lost their eighth straight
game, when they fell before the ter
ribie onslaught OF eleven huskies
representing the Wenonah Military
Academy, at Baynard Field. on Sat
urday, IS 10 0. Although the cadets
scored in first period they were
given a hard fght. The winner
was openly predicted but the result
was far from the one-sided figures
some expected. The Highlets put up
their best defensive game OF the sea-
son.
Resorting entirely 20 line plunges
Wenon>h finally reached the goal
line after Brandt broke through
right guard for a touchdown in the
first querter. After that It as nip
and tuck in the second chapter and
the Ashtonian team certainly put up
hard fight to check their oppon-
ents constant hammering at the
line.
The other two six pointer. came by
the aerial route. Short passes just
over the line OF scrimmags which
netted five and ten yards was the
WEAPON OF the cadets.
High school had an opportunity
when they got possession OF the oval
in the second quarter when Lloyd
Alexander blocked one Of Brandifs
kicks. The Delaware avenue lads
should be given credit for holding
Wenonah 10 such a low score. It
was the lowst the cadets have been
held this season. They have tOtaled
21S points.
This indicates the tight that the
Cherry and White put up. Whining
ton was on the defensive most of the
time and they exhibited some fine
Brandifs run around right
and without any interference what
soever for about sixty-1ve yards was
one OF the best seen at the Stadium
this season.
What drew more attention than
was the wonderful puntsI
Of Captain Stout. In the first half
they averaged better than fifty yards
with the wind. In the lest half they
passed the forty yard range against
the breeze. Several times Stout
drop-kicked when against the wind
instead OF punting.
Lloyd Alexander. playing his real
game showed up as would have been
expected OF any good end. He was
In exery play and It was he who
after blocking a kick with alacrity
retrieved the ball. This was on the
opponents twenty-five yard the
nearest the Highlets ever got. HeI
was aided by his brother and Bob
Clover.

Evans on Boxing

Pancho Villa recently won the n.y.
weight championship. Only a few
weeks ago Mickey Walker captured
the welterweight title from Jack
Britton.
When a fighter wins a title II Is
only natural that he should desire TO
profit financially as a result OF his
efforts. Il has been customary for
all champions OF the past 70 80
handle their affairs.
Consequently when Mickey Walker
through his manager. let the world
know that he was going on the stage
for a couple OF months. 81 caused no
great surprise. Walker was simply
the past have done. pick up some
soft money without taking any
chances.
Seek No-Decision Bouts.
NOf late years II has been custom
ary for champions to seek no-de-
cision bouts after winning their title.
In such bouts their only chance Of
tossing off the championship was by
being knocked out, which OF course
is a rarity in these days OF light
hitters.
When Abe Atteli was champion
featherweight, he so far outclassed
his field, that in order 20 get
matches he was compelled 20 take on
lightweights. Johnny Dundee has
also been forced to give away pound
age in order TO keep busy.
In this day Attell was compliment
ed for his willingness 70 take on
the nghtweights. since none of the
featherweights were able TO press
him. This practice, however, Is be-
ing much abused by the modern
fighters.
Stick TO Their Glass.
Recently, the New York Boxing
Commission ruled that there was no
need OF villa going into the bantam
class for opponents when there were
plenty of hyweights able TO offer
keen competition.
The other day the wires carried a |
story that Mickey Walker intended !
to take on several middlewieghts in |
the very near future. II such bouts /
are scheduled for New York State |
the commission no doubt will veto
them.
The big idea OF course Is the cham
pion is taking no chance in going |
out Of. his class. Anything that
might happen TO a champion in a
bout with a much heavier man
would have no bearing on his title.
In other words. when a champion
goes out OF his class to meet a heav-
Ter man. he is adopting safety first
tactics OF the ring.
There are so many good walters
anxious 10 take Walker on that to
go out of his class makes II appear
that he is lodging the issue.

WIN 6, LOSE 3,
SEASONS RECORD

Special TO The Evening Journal.
NEWARK. Nov. 27.-Students OF
Delaware College OF the University
Of Delaware are having a holiday
today 20 celebrate the great football
victory over Dickinson, on Harlan
Field, Wilmington. Saturday. There
were no classes and the Freshmen
In charge OF upper classmen spent
most OF the day gathing material for
mammoth bonfire to be held on
the new campus below Wolf Hall to-
night
Saturdays game closed the 1922
football season at Delaware. II was
one OF the most successful in the
history OF the game here both from
the standpoint OF victories and from
a financial standpoint. The home
games attracted much larger crowds
than ever before.
The result OF the season vindi-
Gates the judgment OF the athletic
authorities in getting Coach McAvoy
back as a successor TO Coach Ship
ley. McAvoy deserves much credt
for the showing OF the team con-
sidering the numerous handicaps he
worked under. All season he was
handicapped with injuries to back
field men and with others either
leaving college or quitting the game.
In not moro than two games was he
able to start the same backfield
and even Saturday. Delaware de-
feated Dickinson with two Fresh
men in the baclcfeld, Weggenmann
and "Sook" jackson, who had been
started in only one other game.
Captain Williams, fuliback, was the
only backfield man who went
through the season playing in every
game and he proved a tower Of
strength to the team both on de-
fense and offense. Il was the line
however that made most OF Della
wares victories possible. The line
as was the case on Saturday. was
always a stonewall when Delaware's
goal was threatened and only one
touchdown was scored against Della
ware all season through the line.
OF the nine games played this
season six were victories. Delaware
lost to Muhlenburg, Rhode Island
State and p. NJ. @. and won from
St. Joseph's College, Ursinus, Ste
vens, Haverford, Washington and
Dickinson.
The Saturday contest was the
last for Cole. cofhgon, Lynch and
Boyce for Delaware. Cole at guard
and Cofigon at tackle, have played
wonderful football for Delaware all
season and their loss will be greatly
felt next season Lynch and Boyce
have been valuable substitutes in
most all the games.
Coach McAvoy will probably make
the first call for basketball candi-
dates either the last OF this week
or the first of next as the opening
game will be played here December
21 with Philadelphia Dental College.

n NEW YORK, Nov. 27 Omitted
Psess) Perhaps the French Box
ling Federation is more generally
Irecognized in France than the New
York Commission is in this country
land even in its own State.
When the French ring salons took
Battling Skis titles away from him
and suspended him for nine months
from all activities in the ring, It was
perhaps accepted as official in
Irance-because the French wanted
Il that way.
Getting down 10 common sense.
It must be a new day when~a ring
I.hampion can be legislated out from
under his crown. II has never been
done before and II this case be-
pmes an established precedent
here IS no telling where it will end.
II is not TO be denied that Sikh
should have been disciplined for
striking the manager OF another
boxer in the ring. but tho French
should have started the training"
Qt what they now call a savage as
soon as he beat Carpenter.
Instead OF hailing him as a hero
grand and allowing him all kinds OF
liberties, the French people should
have discouraged him from seeking
IA place on their level it they did
k.gure that he was not at company
or them.
Giving him ninety days suspen-
on was fit punishment for tho Of
ace, but the attempt to take his
s away from him is silly.
20 Jack McAuliffe says-"The
osly way 10 get a title IS 10 smack
some one on the chin and the only
way 10 lose one is TO get smacked."
.Officislly. Johnny Wilson and
Johnny Kilbane are no worlds
champions by the ruling of the New
York Boxing Commission. Officially,
sikh IS not the worlds light heavy
weight champion and the European
heavyweight champion.

But ask anyone in the street who
are the champions in those classes.
French people always go to ex-
tremes. They were not content
when they got Sikh down and they
are trying to keep him down.
When he was arrested for appear
ing on Armistice Day in the uniform
Of the Algerian Rifles. an outfit with
which he served for four years, he
was arrested. That savors OF per-
secution and persecution has no
place IN sportsmanship.
Many explanations are being
made that Skis color had nothing
to do with II. Maybe not. However.
IL Georges Carpenter had done the
same thing when he was IN all his
glory it's a hundred to one shot that
he never would have been dlsciplin-
ed.
The New York Boxing Commits
sion was quick TO back up the ac-
tions Of the French body in giving
Sikh the gate in barring him from
this country. In this the august
New York body is anything but con-
sistent.
During the last fight between
Jack Britton and Ted Lewis. Brit
ton went over 70 the Lewis corner
and took a hefty swing on the jaw
Of one OF Ted's seconds. Everyone,
including the commissioners,
thought 1t was a good joke.
aJust recently after a bout at a
small club, in which one Of the boys
In the Johnny Keyes-Jimmy Kelly
stables was given a draw. someone
entered the dressing-room and gave
Referee Artie McGovern a terrible
beating. Nothing has been done
about II.
The commission has always main
tanned that It must support its Of
fcials. II that is support. referees
