Despite it's rather unexpected
early season defeat by Stanford,
Is to u, Southern California
has one of the outstanding
teams not only of the West, but
the entire country.
Coach Howard Jones had hoped
to go through his Pacific Confer
ence schedule without a defeat, so
that the game with Notre Dame
next Saturday, DECD, at Los An
geles, would take on antional i'm
portance But in the meantime
Notre Dame also lost one conflict
and the teams will battle Saturday
with only one defeat against each.
Notre Dame was upset by Car
negie Tech last Saturday and
some of the edge has been taken
off the big scrap on the Coast,
but hos contest probably will be
staged, nevertheless. The "Iirsh"
are the "underdog" as a result Of
losing to Carnegie, and it will be
interesting to see how they per-
form with the odds against them.
They are accustomed TO entering
the large majority of their battles
on the long end of the betting.
The Notre Dame warriors left
South Bend late Monday on the
long jaunt to California. All
choice seats for the Saturday fea-
ture have been sold, according to
reports from Los Angeles.

American League Averages

scorers reports. There was a nota-
BILE list of pitchers who handled all
their fielding chances without error
or with but one error made all sea-
son.
Taking up the fielding work by po-
sitions, Earl Shelly Of the Chicago
White SoX led first basemen classed
as regulars, though Joe Iauser of
the Athletics topped him by one
point, in less than half as many
games played at the position.
Max Bishop of the Athletics led
second basemen in percentage. Fred
Sturgeon of the Cleveland team
came nearest to being in the game
at this position every day. He was
in 149 games at second base, handled
far more chances than any other Sec
ond sacker and also led in number
of double plays participated in.
Bishop had the high fielding average
Of 1897 in 119 games, making but
eight errors.
Leads ShOrtstOps
Emory Egney of Boston led the
shortstops in fielding, and second to
him in percentage was Joe Sewel
of Cleveland, who continued his rec
ord for continuous play, not missing
a game-and scarcely an fnning-all
season. Jack Tavener Of Detroit was
out of but one full game.
Mark Koenig of the Yankees made
most errors among shortstops, but
was not last in fielding percentage,
because he handled a lot of chances.
Bibb F'alk of the White Sox topped
all outfielders of the league with his
high average of 1892, made in 357
chances offered, and all but three
taken care Of, in 1855 games. Fall1
was in every game his team played.
Sixteen pitchers who were in more
than ten games did not have an
error charged to them. The best
performance Of this perfect lot was
that by Sherry Smith of Cleveland,
who handled the seventy-two chances
offered him without a skip. George
Uhle of Cleveland, being in most
innings, naturally had most fielding
chanses. He was offered 104 and
missed seven of them. Sam Gray of
the Athletics was the poorest fielder
among pitchers classed as regulars.

Yankees suppIanted for
First Time in Three Years
browns at Bottom.

The Chicago White Sox led The
American League in fielding per-
ccntage in the season of 1926, thus
supplanting the New York Yankees.
which team had for three years in
succession been the fielding leader.
However, the percentage OK the
White Sox (.973) was a point less
than that recorded by the Yankees
the previous year.
While the lead was taken with a
point less in percentage, the general
average was higher than that or
1926 for the entire league. The st.
Louis Browns were at the bottom in
fielding with a percentage of 1868,
which was six points better than
that OF the Boston team when 1t
finished last in 1925.
Boston, advanced to fourth place
in fielding, led the league in num-
Der of assists. An odd thing in the
fielding records was that the leading
White Sox made so few double plays.
while the bottom Browns made the
most. Also the Browns were second
in number of assists made.
Double Play Leader
The New York team was credited
with but III double plays in 155
games played. Six triple plays were
made, Cleveland and Boston having
two each and Philadelphia and
Washington one each.
Several outstanding features are
noted in individual fielding records
Of the 1925 season in the American
League. Catcher John Bassler OF
the Detroit team in sixty-three
games behind the bat had 2S4
chances without error, though he
was charged with one passed ball.
His 81 assists meant almost one per
game.
Phil Todt, first baseman of the
Boston Red Sox, had 1,755 putouts
and 1875 assists in 154 games, total
of 1881 chances accepted. He had
part in 144 double plays and two
triple plays.
Kamm Stars
Willie Kamm of the Chicago
White Sox recorded a fielding aver
age of .97S, very high for third base
men. Bib Falk, left fielder Of the
White Sox, made but three errors in
155 games, according to the official

Loughran 0utpoints ManIey
by Clever Display of
Snappy Left Hand.

If some of the youthful boxers
of Indianapolis would copy after
the style displayed by Tommy
Loughran, the big league pugilist,
who defeated Frank Manley at Tom
hnson Hall Monday night, they
might advance in their profession.
Loughran beat a tattoo with
sharp left on Manley's face and the
Denver man was all marked up at
the finish Of ten rounds. Manley was
willing and made a fight out Of the
scrap, but he couldn't match the
Philadelphia when gloves were
flying.
Loughran rolled UP enough points
to win decisively and showed a
clever defense during several efforts
of Marley to rally. Tommy OUT
weighed Marley nine pounds.
The bout was worth the price,
despite Loughran's superiority over
his opponent. Chuck Virgins, Hoo
sier champion, challenged the win
ner. Virgins has fought Loughran
twice, losing by shade once and on
a foul the second time.
Results of other Monday bouts at
Tomlinson Hall follow:
Charlie Shine, and Jack Mccullough
fought Bat ss r2aRds Il out

of four ten-round bouts. In the main
event Jimmy Mahoney, Chicago, will

Gus appearance here, easily defeated

The baseball world was given
another surprise Monday when
iris Speaker, famous outfielder,
heavy hitter and manager Of the
Cleveland Americans, resigned his
job and announced he would re-
tire from the diamond to enter
commercial life.
Speaker has been one of the
games greatest performers, both
in the field and at bat. He also
has to his record a worlds cham
pfonship, his Cleveland team hav-
ing won the honors from Brook

The retirement of Speaker, on the

Fl HERE is always something
new under the sun despite
the old adage to the con-
trary. A "biologic" football team,
representing a Battle Creek SAN
itarium went through the entire
season without tasting meat, coffee
and sugar. They lost only to the
Notre Dame Reserves, Z to 6.
The squad of thirty-four players
was mustered from ninety-seven
men. Meat, sugar, tea, coffee,
cocoa. spices Of all kinds, pickles
and gravies were prohibited. The
gridders had choice of matted
honey, food-ferrin, vegetables,
fruits, salads, cereals, nuts and
milk.
1t is claimed that not member
Of the squad lost any weight
during the conditioning and most
of them gained a few pounds.
This may prove something. At
any rate, it ought to be worth
