LOS ANGELES, Nov. 3. The
laundering Herd' of the Uni
versity of Southern California ar
rived home today, tired but happy
after their $500 mile jaut to Ida
ho. Although the Trojans won 81 to
g. they did not escape unscathed.
"Red' Badgro, star end, suffered a
broken arm and will be out for the
season.
Another bad piece of news greet
ed them with the announcement that
Charley Boren, who was left behind
in the hospital, will be out for the
season with a crippled knee. Borcn
was injured in practice, and treat
ment followed. The knee refused to
respond and now comes the an
nouncement that only miracle will
enable him to play again this year.
Boren had won regular place
in the backfield and started in
place Of Honey Earle in the Stan
ford game.
Despite published ereports to the
contrary, George Blake, "maker of
champions, coach of the Los An
geles a. c. amateur boxers, will
continue i'll that capacity after a
leave of absence. 1t was reported
that Blake had resigned and Clay
ton Frye, welterweight champion,
would take his place.
This was denied by club officials
today.
Mushy Callahan, local weltcr-
weight, will meet Pal Moran in a
ten round main event at Vernon to-
night. Callahan started on a win
ming streak when the new boxing
law came in and has not met defeat
since, his closest being a draw with
Ace Hudkins.
1t is believed Moran, a veteran
of many battles, including bouts
with Benny Leonard, Charley White,
Johnny Dundee and other topnotch-
ers, will prove severe test for the
20 year old former newsboy.
However, Callahan never has been
fully extended and many wise box
ing men believe he will be return
ed a winner in tonight's s bout.
Ernie Hood and ETankic Gran
delta will fight the six round semi
windup at 1l5 pounds. Hood, a
Pasadena boy, is mentioned promi-
nently as II challenger of Fidel La
barba, flyweight champion, while

utmost.
Benny Touchstonc and Pat Free
man, hcavywcights, meet in the six
round special, while August Gotto

Joe Garcia are scheduled for four
FOUNDERS.
Two important Southern Califor-
MIA conference games are scheduled
for this coming Saturday. U. c.,
southern branch, and Redlands are
carded in one bracket, while Occi-
dental faces Caltcch in the other.
Mathcmatically the branch and
Oxy head the list for the title with
Two victories and one defeat each,
but every team in the conference
except Caltcch stands a chance to !
win out eventually.
The teams that are defeated will
be eliminated.
y. Nj. Young, head of the Culver
City speedway, stated today that
ll0 miles per hour is the probable !
speed of the cars that will race here !
Thanksgiving Day. Young bases
his claims on the fact that all rae
ers are equipped with super -charg-
crs, which was not the case last
year, when 1870 miles was Il COM
mon Occurancc.
Bennett Hill holds the present lap
record at Cuver City of 1856 miles
per hour. ,$4|
