Herman has been training a month

good condition. Burns, who displayed
signs of great improvement in his
last two local fights, has worked off
the last pound of superflous flesh
and is confident of slowing away the
Kid long before ten rounds have
elapsed. He has been learning to
put every ounce of weight in his
hitting.
Should the youthful Burns score
a decisive win over the crafty Her
man. his manager, Don Curley, is
planning to make him the principal
in an invasion Of Eastern boxing
circles this winter.

shown by the experts in selection of

unanimously picked. In other posi-

Defeated.

NEW YORK, Nov. 30.-CP-Only
four champion football teams of 1924
managed to retain their status in the
nationwide gridiron warfare just end
ed-Dartmouth, Alabama, Missouri
and the Army.
Two amazing happenings brought
about this situation, the downing of
the six-year king, California, on the
Pacific coast, and the recovery of a
Princeton team to conquer a Yale
squad, regarded before the season
started as one of the nations most
powerful.
The University of Washington de-
scended on the Golden Bears Of Cali
fornia and came forth with victory,
and Stanford. heartened by the sue
cess of the Northern invasion. accom-
plished what it had not done previous
II in 20 long years by also downing
the long time champions and taking
second place in the conference stand
ing.
YALE DEFEATS UPSETS.
Yales failure stunned the Eastern
seaboard. The team had power-that
was demonstrated on several occa-
sions-but it was a last-half eleven.
Pennsylvania conquered Yale. 1G to
13, but, even in that contest, the men
of Tad Jones looked like the cham
pions of 1924 except for their tendency
to tumble at critical stages. Then
came a victory over the confident
Army a rise only to be followed by a
fall before Princeton.
Championships changed hands in
the two instances mentioned but un-
doubtedly the seasons greatest up
