SCHOOL FUNDS
RUNNING SHORT


The regular appo ,tment Of the
state distributive school fund has
been made by State Superintendent
w. ]. Hunting. Because of the
shortage of the amounts required by
law to be distributed, there has been
reduction of $40 on each census
teacher and ST in each census child,
or total reduction of $2l ,424 Three
thousand dollars has been set aside
as an emergency appropriation for
the new districts that may be estab-
lished after the regular apportion-
ment has been made.
The following statement shows the
causes for the reduced apportionment
set forth by w. J. Hunting, super
intendent of public instruction.
The January, 1923, school appor-
tionment is not full one, for the
reasons given herewith: When the
school budget for lo21-lo22 was COM
plcted near the close OF the legisla-
tive session of 1921 the sources of in
come were estimated to yield these
: amounts: Taxes for the bienniun,
| $43,555; library rcversion, $4,000;
interest on land contracts, $S1 COO;
interest on permanent school fund,
/ $251 ,44S, or a total of $Sl2,042. The
actual income, however, from these
four sources was only S766,4S7
which was shortage of $45,555 in
the estimated income. The expendi-
lures OF the department within this
budget for the biennial period were
| $27,S5S less than was estimated. This
left net deficit in the estimated
balance with which to begin 1923, Of
S42 .79S. This shortage occurred prin
cipally in the income from taxes
fees from the secretary of states of
flee. { for library fund.- and interes
on the permanent school fund.
Legislation is asked by the de
It Sdz, iscomem'on iiiihs ARFI
partment of education at the hands
OF the legislature now in session tt
meet this deficit and to provide
against reoccurrence of such ;
shortage in income. 1t is evident
therefore, that this deficit is due tt
a falling off in the estimated sources
OF income, inasmuch as the depart
ment of education has expended dur
ing the biennum less than the est
mated amount.

SCHAEFER FAVORITE
In BILLIARD EVENT

NEW YORK, November Sake
Schaefer of Chicago. former cham
pion, today rules as favorite in the
third international 1872 balkline bill
lizard championship tournament. with
three victories to his credit and no
defeats. He rounded out a perfect
score against the foreign invaders
last night by defeating Erich Hagen
lacher of Germany. 500 TO 173, in
twelve innings. He had previously
won over Roger Cont of France and
Edouard Horemans of Belgium.
Tonight Schaefer will engage in A
crucial test with Welker Cochran of
Los Angeles, who gave Willie Hoppe,
the defending champion. his only de-
feat thus far. This afternoon s
matches will be between Horemans
and Hagenlacher and Cont and Hoppe.
If Schaefer is successful against
Cochran tonight. Hopes only chance
TO retain the title will be by vic
tory over the Chicagoan. This would
give him only a tie, and a piay-off
would be necessary.

RENAULT DECISNELY
TROUNCES JOHNSON

NEW YORK, November Slack
Renault. hard hitting Canadian
heavyweight, lifted himself notch
higher in the heavyweight title con-
tending class last night as a result of
his technical knockout of Floyd
Johnson of Iowa, in the fifteenth and
last round of spectacular fray in
Madison Square Garden. But johnson.
in defeat, probably gained more glory
than his opponent did in victory, for
the Iowan met his downfall with one
of the most courageous exhibitions of
all time.
Any title aspirations johnson may
have entertained were blasted, but
though beaten into bloody, helpless
figure, he was still on his feet, trying
by instinct to fight back when a
towel came hurtling into the ring
from his corner. That token of defeat
came with but thirty-one seconds of
the fight left.
Johnson's gameness and aggres-
siveness were his only assets. He
showed no effective punch, whatever.
while Renault, fighting cody and
shooting most of his blows with ter
rifle power and deadly accuracy had
ninth, tenth and fourteenth rounds.

There Is no reason for assuming
| that Harvard could have beaten Dart
mouth under any circumstances, but,
| If the game had been played when
Dartmouth was at the point it had
reached two weeks ago, or when Har-
ward had advanced to the stage II
hopes to reach in the next two weeks,
the Crimson doubtless would have
made a better showing than it made
! last Saturday. Princeton has had this
year much the same experience that
Harvard has had. but no one thinks
the New Jersey eleven will be as
weak. when it plays Yale and Har-
ward, rs the scores of its early games
have seemed to indicate.
This statement about what might
have been is not intended as dispar-
agement to the Dartmouth team; 1t
was one of the strongest elevens seen
in the stadium in many a year. and II
doubtless would have beaten HarvarA
under any conditions. These refec-
tions are designed rather TO give what
little comfort they may contain for
Harvard supporters, who are likely to
go through rather depressing period
during the next few weeks
Has Failed on Offense.
For, after full weight has been given
opponents may have had this fall
! through two additional weeks of
| training, the striking fact remains
that the Crimson eleven, in the games
1 11Ols SIUSS anu
Dartmouth, has made a total of only
| six first downs in rushing the ball.
| No other Harvard eleven within the
memory of man has had such a poor
| showing on the offense.
| 1t was taken for granted, after the
| Holy Cross game, that Harvard's de-
| fense was adequate for almost any
situation, but the unavoidable con-
| clusion, with the Dartmouth game in
| mind, is that the failure of Holy
| Cross to score, when 1t had first
| down on Harvard's S-yard line at the
| very beginning of the match week
| ago last Saturday, was due to the
| weakness of the Holy Cross ofense
| rather than to the strength of the
! Harvard defense.
| No one seems to- know why the
| eleven is developing so slowly. Fisher
| and his associates are probably work
| ing harder than any other group of
; Harvard coaches ever worked, and
! the candidates apparently are doing
| their best. The most common expla-
| nation of existing conditions is the
! one given in these actual factS1that
! there are too many veterans on the
| team. Experience has shown, again
| and again, that men who feel sure of
| holding their positions, although they
/ may think they are doing their best,
! do not play with desperation that
spurs on q o.ndidate who is trying
| to be promoted from cam B to team
| A. or who, having at last won a
place on team A, realizes that he
| must fight every minute in order to
keep his position. Such is human
nature.

NINE BIG TEN TEAMS
FIGURE IN CONTESTS

CHICAGO, November 3.-Nine
western conference foot ball teams
will go into action today, six in con-
ference championship struggles, with
indications that at least two of the
contests will be undecided until the
final whistle. Four of the teams in
action today are undefeated and two
of these, Illinois and Chicago, meet.
On the basis of dope. Chicago and
Illinois. meeting at Crbana, in a game
opening the Illini Stadium, and Mich
fgan and Iowa clashing at Iowa City,
are almost evenly matched.
Chicago won from Northwestern,
13 TO Q, and Illinois beat the Purple,
% to 0, but Northwestern admittedly
plays it's best game of the season
against Chicago. its neighboring rival.
On this basis, Illinois, with its great
! Red Grange. has the. edge and this
was further increased by a, Iast-min-
ute announcement that the mighty
Harry Thomas, the half on which Chi
cago pins much of its hopes. will be
ineligible.
AT Urbana it will be a case of an
open game, probably a forward pass
ing game of Grange and Britton,
supported by well organized Illinois
line. both on offense and defensive,
against the plunging game of Zorn.
JOill anu yOll, l"o SAptI L
ends in Dickson and Lampe, and a
Chicago line that has shown up eX-
ceptionally strong.
Michigan's victory. % to Q. over
Ohio State and Iowa's 20 to victory
over the Buckeyes show these teams
to be almost even, on dope, despite
the fact that Illinois has eliminated
Iowa from championship considera-
ton.
Michigan will invade Iowa City
with an array of foot ball talent that
would make the hearts of an ordinary
team quake with fear, but Iowa has a
team that is not ordinary. When
Michigan swamped Ohio State on Oc-
, tober 20 by a score Of % to reports
were heard that nothing could beat
Yost's team. But a week later Iowa
came along and almost duplicated the
feat.
Minnesota expects to have little
today. The Gophers have played only
one conference game, that with Wis
consin, and 1t resulted in an 0-to-0
tie. while Northwestern has been
beaten by Indiana, Chicago and Illi-
nois.
Ohio State and Indiana, meeting the
conference Denison and Hanover
teams, respectively, should win with
out undue exertion, but, Purdue runs
into the strong Notre Dame aggrega-
ton and will have it's f1aRds full hold
ing down the score.
Wisconsin, the tenth 6f the Big Ten,
has an off day.
