Followers Of boxing favor Walker
to retain his title. The champion,
with his terrific offensive, hitting
strength and accuracy, and ability
to withstand the blows OF an op-
ponent, is expected to come through
the IL rounds with flying colors.
Friedman, sturdy veteran of many
hard fought ring battles, is recognized
as dangerous rival for Walker, and
is expected to make the champion
extend himself to the limit. 1t is
expected that more than 10000 will
witness the battle
The contest promises a spirited
battle irrespective of the outcome.
Friedman proved himself a worthy
rival of Walkers in a meeting with
the champion last Summer in East
Chicago, Ind, when, floored in the
very first round, he regained his
feet and, after surviving Walkers s
hail of blows in a bid by the cham
pion for knockout victory, he rallied
strongly as the battle progressed and
In the final round was out-f1ghting
the champion.

At the ends are Oosterbaan, a de-
fensive ace and a pass-catcher de luxe,
and Romey, an all-around fast, block
ing, tackling, pass-catching player.
Henderson at tackle is a hard charger
and penetrator and on defense is fast
and aggressive. Hawkins at the other
tackle is a strong, knitting, fighting
lineman.
Ed Hess of Ohio State is an aggres-
sive, speedy, rugged, knitting guard
and Shively of Illinois a fighting pene

In the backfleld is Harmon OF Wis

Wisconsin's come-from- rallies.
Joesting of Minnesota is a true power
driver. Marks of Indiana is a sturdy,
fast back of all-around ability. McCar-
ty of Chicago Is a hole-picking, speedy,
powerful runner.
Michigan emerges from the season
supreme with one Of the very finest.
most finished Michigan teams Of all
times. It's forward passing game has
been truly superlative. Many believe
that the tall. big. fast, strong line has
been the outstanding feature Of Its
1925 team.
A Michigan-Dartmout game would
be a wonderful exibitation, particular
~ in view Of the success each has
with the spectacular. comparatively
long forward pass. A passing con-
test between Oberlander and Fried
man would be a classic.
To me, Wisconsin's wonderful
comeback against Minnesota and
Chicago and Mich!gan's Navy game
have bean the real outstanding fea-
lures of this season.

lustration of the uncertainty Of foot
ball as 1t is organized today. The
most prominent sport authorities re-
peatedly express wonder that the
foot ball schedules like those of many
leading institutions are even attemp-
ted. 1t is a fact that a team which
plays a tremendously heavy schedule
in October will seldom be a fine team
in November, in the absence of al
most unlimited material.
Foot ball is a wonderful sport
played by college boys who legiti-
mately attend college and meet
scholastic requirments completely.
Such organizations cannot rightly be
held in the same light by the great
American public as teams whose en-
tire time is devoted to the sport which
they are playing. Thinking Ameri-
cans will lend their aid in maintain
ing ideals In college sport which will
continue to develop finest qualities
in the American boy, our greatest
national resource.

February and June graduations are
expected to reduce the ranks of the
veterans so that only Frank Blacki-
stone, all-high center, and Jimmy
Sweet, tackle, will remain as nucleus
for next years eleven.
Although beaten in the game for
the city championship, the Blue and
White has had a remarkably success
full season under the direction Of Mike
Kelly, former Holy Cross player. The
team went through the high school
series without being scored on, and
BANKED two opponents in a quartet of
games with outside combinations
In eight games the Central grid
ders ran up total of 134 points to 19
scored by enemy teams. This gives
the eleven an average of slightly
under II points per game.
GOnzaga and LOyola Of Baltimore
are to furnish the only Thanksgiving
game between schoolboy elevens to be
played here tomorrow. The clash will
be played at Georgetown varsity field,
starting at 10 o'clock. AS the visitors

Catholic title race in Baltimore, a vic

right to claim the championship Of the
middle eastern Jesuit high schools.

LEONARD WILL COME BACK
ONLY FOR A BIG PURSE

NEW YORK, November % CP.-
The New York Evening World today
quotes Benny Leonard as saying he is
ready to return to the ring only when
good Fighter comes along and there
is an enormous demand" for the re-
tired lightweight champion to meet
him. Leonard says he wants to fight
again, and is in condition to do so, but
has no immediate intention of re-
entering the arena.
Leonard said he thought the light
weights of today were of good caliber,
but lacked experience. He indicated
that If he returned to the ring he
would do so as a lightweight in spite
of the general belief that he has out
grown this division.

When Picking Up q Fumble.
By Sol Metzger

Certain players become quito
proficient in picking up fumbled
balls. Sam White of Princeton won
both the Harvard and Yale games
for the Tigers in one season by his
skill in doing this stunt.
The way player picks up a
tumble Is shown in the upper illus
tration. He scoops one hand under
the ball and holds the ball against
this hand with the other. Don't
try to pick up a tumble by grasp
ing the ball on opposite sides as in
the lower illustration. Scoop it up
with the rear hand. Then you will
be sure to get hold Of it. 1t takes
a lot Of practice to perfect ones

WHOSE TOWN is DELTA?

In the face of recent occurrences in
Delta, one is confronted with the
above question. At election time, and
whenever any material Improvement
for the city or country, or any finan-
cial enterprise comes up before the
people, our ears are filled with patri.
otic speeches of my city" my
country" and of the allegiance we
owe to it.
But when the matter of stricter en-,
forcement of existing good laws is in
volved we hear a mighty silence-no
one home.
But we do hear that the w. c. T.
U. has "butted in" again; that it is a
'lot of old women cranks."
Granted that they have passed the
heydey of youth; that many are
grandmothers, certain it is that all of
them are mothers, with a mothers
love and protection for all children,
and are always ready to sponsor any
movement for moral Improvement
At least 75c, of the great moral re-
forms of the world have been achiev-
ed by women. either directly or in,
directly
Whom do these things affect if not
the mother? Whose heart is broken
over the sins of a wayward child, if
not the mother? Are we not all one
big family together? What affects a
part affects all. Shall we permit
things to exist in our town which we
would not tolerate in our private
homes?
While we cannot keep out the un,
desirables from our town. even as we
cannot always keep them out of the
homes. the arm of the law, if rightly
enforced, will surely bring obedience
and respect, just as. surely as parental
authority may do'so. But both must
be rigidly enforced.
And so the w. C. T. U. does. and
always has, stood for purity of home
and country above everything else
and it will not shirk its duty when
ever it sees it.
