cleus, the prospects look excellent. In

few more stars this year. The new
faces on the team will be Ferrel, Flee
ner, Bouton, Smith. Voelckel, will
liams and few others.
As usual, the team will be heavy
as we'll as fast. The line will aver
age $50 pounds and the backfield will
average 175 pounds.
Lieutenant Chadwick, the coach. re-
ceived his training under AL Sharp
at Cornell and Major Daley Mt West
Point. He has had the team out for
about two weeks of hard workouts.
Eye witnesses claim he has n fast
and smoothly-working machine.
The Second Engineers have issued
challenge to meet any team in Tex

against these huskies can arrange
games by getting in touch with Lieut..

ARGENTINA IN A FEVER.
All South America Joins Firpo's Ma.

BuenOs Aires, Sept. 14.-If Arpen.
tina's 100000 inhabitants could in
fluence with their thoughts or good
wishes the result of tonight's battle at
the Polo Grounds, Luis Angel Firpo
would surely come home with the
heavyweight championship of the
world.
Not even the sensational news Of
the uprising in Spain has relieved tbe
tension which the Argentinans' anx-
lety over the outcome Of the fight has
caused. and the latest dispatches from
New York are probably more eagerly
and widely read than those from Mad
rid and Barcelona.
Ihe police are expecting that all
Buenos Aires will be in the streets TO-
night to follow the fight as it is flash
ed, blow by blow over the cables, and
extensive preparations are being made
10 handle a record crowd.
Inc newspapers will issue extra
editions and will give round nv
round descriptions Of the bout by
megaphone and radiophone. One pa
per has erected a large electric sign
on which the name of the winner will
be flashed.
The press has played up the fight to
the extent that the populace has been
whipped to a fever heat and the peo-
pie look upon the bout as of great i'm
portance as test of superiority and
strength between the United States
and Argentina. Some of the news
papers have been publishing daily
pages of interviews with prominent
AIirgentineans giving their opinion in
the outcome. All have insisted that
f1rpo could not help winning unless
underhanded methods were used to
prevent the championship from COM
ing to South America.
Throughout the Argentine, in every
city and hamlet, the same enthusiasm
and expectancy prevails. The entire
nation is making this a holiday. while
all other republics of South America
are taking a lively interest in the
right, showing equal pride in Firpo's
tistic career. In event he wins they

Enthusiastically as Argentina.
