SCHOOL
TITLE CAME
TODAY
Victor in Today's Game As
sured Of Championship
of Series

A little matter Of a high school
football championship will be de.
cided today in the Central stadium,
and without the presence, too, Of
any Central team. Such things are
not at all to the likings Of the
Centralites. But then, there IL a
day of reckoning for all, and
Central has come to that day.
Western, which has always had
its nickle's worth to say, and
Technical. which usually says a
dimes worth, are the teams which
will take the field to determine the
championship.
Western 10 far and away heavier
than Technical, and the Red and
White boys have the added ad-
vantage of being more experienced.
They have backfie1d that is the
best all.round group Of backs in
the high schools.
Against such an array Tech will
present a stronger line, and two
backs who are alI.star material.
Wondrack and Captain Gordon
Kessler, quarterback and fullback,
are trenchant guys with none but
the best Of intentions.
The Western lineup is subject to
change because Of the recent ad.
visory periods. Several athletes
wko pranced eagerly on the side
lines may now grace the varsity
eleven, and, as a consequence, sew
eral who adorned the varsity will
now prance.
The usual high school fighting
spirit will be enhanced by the fact
that both Western and Tech have
q chance to win the championship.
The one that falls today is out Of
the running.
Scores Of the high school cham.
pionship series to date are: Tech 10,
Eastern 0; Western "a, Business 0;
Tech IL, Central 0; Western IL,
Eastern 8. It can be seen from the
scores that another win for Tech
will clinch the pennant. Western
has yet to play Central and Eastern.

ing men from ten to twenty pounds

was the most vicious fighter that
ever crawled through the ropes.
"A battle between Mickey Wal

would be a classic. Walker, for o

class and in my opinion he il the
greatest fighting machine Of the

Patsy places the late Bob Fitz-
simmons and Kid Mccoy on even
terms, saying that either, when
they were right, could take on any
three OF the present crop In
week and eliminate the entire class.
Mccoy, in the years OF 1897 and
Stanley Ketchell, thinks Haley.
That alone would have been a rare
feat.
In the lightweight ranks. Bob
I1tzsimn1ons was head and shoulders
over his challengers, in Patsy's

any two men in that division today
in one night. Tom Gibbons, as great
a defensive fighter as ne is. couldn
last more than four rounds with
Lanky Bob.

Not For Gentlemen.

.THE University Of California
has severed athletic relations
with the University Of South
ern California, which is unim-
portant though unfortunate. Surely
gentlemen should have been able
to come to some agreement re-
garding the eligibility of football
players and not have to act like
children.
First, California protested Bill
Cole, tackle on Southern Cali
fornia's eleven, claiming he had
taken money for coaching q high
school team at Santa Ana.
The Los Angeles folks came
back with another hot shot, pro-
testing Roy Niswander, California
guard, claiming he had played pro-
fessional football at Selma, Calf,
last fall.
It was simple then for chal-
lenges to be hurled from both
sides and the upsh0t Of it all was
that California, backed by Leland
Stanford, announced last Saturday
that, following this football sea-
son, athletic relations between
both Of them on one side and
Southern California on the other
will, come to an end.
There Is considerable childish
ness in all this petty pickering.

IND W. SMITH, sports editor Of
Mr.. Hearst's Chicago Eve
- ming American, after consid-
ering the football situation around
Chicago, dashed off the following
truth:
zone Of the surprising things Of
the football season is the unpre-
cedented display of interest in the
many titanic struggles. It is re-
ported that some 10000 tickets
for the Iowa-Illinois game have
been forwarded to the Chicago
office of the University of Illinois.
The surprising part Of this is that
these tickets are being purchased
by THE GENERAL PUBLIC. II
appears that most varsity follow
ers already had availed themselves
of earlier allotments.
at serves to show that many
persons devoid Of university con-
nection or without the stir of
college sympathy are interested
in the sport. Apparently they
have been aroused to interest by
the excellent display given Sun
days by the pro players, who all
Of them are old college men. of
high athletic standing. Having
seen the pros in action sans the
university trimmings Of huge
bands, cheering and the spectacu-
lar color schemes, they now crave
the remainder Of the picture.
Undoubtedly the pros and in
telligent newspaper reporting of
big battles have driven football
out of all previous bounds. No
longer is the varsity game a
game for varsity folks alone. It
has become vast public institu-

scrap. Baum has a reputation as

himself a clever boxer with
