hospitality will have to outdo it
self DO overcome the furious re-
ception accorded WaShington's
great Grand Palace Duckpin
team, which arrived here this
morning for its match with the
Connecticut A1l-Stars.
Finally they were taken to the
Charter Oak alleys where bleach
ers seats were ready for the huge
crowd expected, A goodly crowd
had already gathered, sensing
that the Senators, the official
nickname for our boys here, could
not resist the temptation Of try
ing out the drives.
This afternoon, Howard
Campbell, Of the washington
team, opposes the highly
tOuted Jack White In the
singles.
The doubles are scheduled at 8
o'clock and the team game at 8
o'clock, but Leo Rinaldi, manager
of the Neutrality-suspicious., expects
to have these hours rearranged,
starting the team match about
z o'clock and running the doubles
last.

phries that it revolts against
routine, and so last night. when
the time came to announce that
fluffy Griffiths had beaten
Johnny Risko in 10 blazing
rounds. Joseph forebore to point
to the winner.
He went over there and got
him and raised his right hand
on high, mutely saying that this
not only was the judges winner,
but his winner and everybody's.
The last time saw HUMPHREYS
do that was the delirious evening
when Dempsey beat Firpo. Grit.

He won roaring, FOSTERING

gladdened the heart and he won

good for lot of prima donnas

Old John Risko, gallant SOUL

takes o good man to punch him
around, as John was punched
last night.
Griffiths won away off by HIM
self, thus sustaining the odds Of
2 to that prevailed at the ring
side. But they knew better than
to shoot with the breakfast
money on q Knockout and this
idea was justified. too. Griffiths
was q fine. two-handed hitter last
night. but Risko was the same old
oublechinned catcher and, while
they came to cheer GriffithS'
terrific right crosses, they re-
manned first to marvel ut Old
John Risko and then to give their
admiration llnstintedly. I'm not
trying to be smart In saying that
he would have been q great
fighter If he ever saw the day
he knew how to fight. It's the
truth,
Griffiths started out TO make
the fight q gallop in the first
round and seldom stouped there
after. He caught john coming In
with 3 right cross that turned
the rubber man halfway around,
but this merely was the first Of
3 series pS rights that bounced
off Johns profile and this. etc.
It was Grififths' round. but John
made it close with his body at

OFFER SCHMEL|NG
S25Q,0DO FOR BOUT
PhiIIy Promoters Plan to
Have Max Fight in Ring
in New Jersey.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, october 25.-The lure
of a $250,00O purse may cause Max
Schmeling, Teuton heavyweight, to
abandon his life of ease in Germany
and hasten back to the shores that
gave him a rather better than small
fortune during the past year.
The fight-promotion firm OF Herman
Taylor and Bob Gunnis of Philadelphia,
along with Bob Duffy, New York man
ager, have offered Schmeling quarter
of a million for a 15-round match at
Convention Hall, Atlantic City, N. j.,
against the best available opponent"
In January.
With the announcement that Jack
Dempsey would not be selected to face
the Teuton puncher, the matter of an
opponent may give the promoters a
headache or two. Jack Sharkey, gen.
orally considered the best of the cur
rent crop Of heavyweights, Is believed
Square Garden. With the two Jacks
out of the picture, Tommy Loughran or
Young Stribling might be called upon,
despite the fact that both have been
beaten by Sharkey-Stribling on a de-
cision and Loughran on knockout.
Schmeling and his American man.
ager, Joe Jacobs, both are under suS-
pension in New York State for Schmel-
ings failure to meet Phil Scott, but no
action has been taken in New Jersey
against the German.
Contracts for the bout will be taken
by Jacobs to Germany for Schmelings
signature. Jacobs hopes to bring the
Teuton back to the United States i'm
mediately. The contracts provide that
Schmeling's opponent shall be named
20 days before the fight.

Coast Clash May Decide
National Gridiron Title
ny WALTER TRUMBULL.

The game tomorrow which prac-
tically every foot bali fan in the
country would like to witness, is the
one between Stanford and Southern
California. Here will be battle OF
giants.
Those who saw Stanford against
the Army last season still wonder
how Pop Warmers men could lose a
game, yet they did lose to Southern
California. This year Stanford be-
lieves that it is even stronger than
It was last season, and has been run
ming up big scores, but no bigger
than those made by Southern Call
fornia. In fact, the team coached by
Howard Jones scored 76 points
against California Southern Branch
in the first game of the season, while
Stanford, in its fourth game, only
ran up 81 points against the same
opponent. Still, after team has run
up 81 points against another team
q few points more don't matter
much.
This Stanford California
contest should decide the champion
ship of the coast, and might almost
decide the championship Of the
country, as Southern California meets
Notre Dame later in the season.

SLIGHT EDGE SEEN
FOR M|SSOUR|ANS
Absence of BackfieId Ace
May Handicap Nebraska
in Big Six Feature.
BY J. H. ANDERSON.
Associated Press Sports Writer.


~ /ANSAS CITY, October 25.-Ne-
II braska and Missouri, battling in
~ Columbia tomorrow in what
4 - may be the deciding foot ball
game in the Big Six title race
this year, hold the conference spotlight.
But the Oklahoma kansas Aggie fracaS
in Manhattan may be just as interest
ing II it develops its usual free-scoring
tendencies.
In nine games since 1920 between the
Oklahomans and the Kansans, only once
was in 1925, when the Aggies won, Is
to o. Last year Oklahoma won, 33 to
81: the previous year the Aggies were
victorious, 20 to ID, and in 1926 the Ag-
gies won, is to IL. A 7-to-7 tie in 1924
was preceded the year before by a 81
TOGO victory by the Aggies.
The Kansans of "Bo" McMillin, tied
with Missouri for the conference lead,
will be striving to maintain a perfect
record against a team which Is inaugu-
rating It's conference season.
If Clair Sloan, the Nebraska backfield
ace, is able to play, Missouri and Ne
braSka will be nearly on par in COM
parative strength. If Sloans injuries,
which beset him before the first game
and have bounded him ever since, keep
him out of the contest, Missouri prob
ably will hold a slight edge.
Iowa State and Kansas meet in Ames
to make complete week end of titular
contests. Here again one man holds
the key to his teams strength. II Paul
Trauger Iowa State halfback, is in the
game, the Cyclones offensive power
should be such that Kansas will need all
its defensive strength to hold the
Iowans. Kansas will enter the game
with most of its injured athletes able
to play.

TWICE BEATENFO
NOT TAKEN LIGHTLY
Michigan Expected to Bring
Out True Strength of
Veteran Eleven.
BY BOB ZUPPKE,
Illinois Coach.

HE most important Middle West
~ ern games tomorrow seem tc
"A be Nebraska at Missouri ano
4 4 Michigan at Illinois.
Two defeats have retired
Michigan from the championship race
but the Wolverine Illinois game ranks
the top because If it is played under
normal weather conditions it should
show us what we can expect from the
Illini veterans. Everybody was handing
us another championship until Iowa
tied us-or We tied Iowa--in the rain at
Iowa City last week. Now they are
suspending Judgment until they see us
against the tough opposition you can
be sure Michigan will muster.
Illinois has veteran team, and Su>
teams always lack the fire of younger
ones. I hope for good weather, because
1t is impossible to execute involved ball
handling plays with a slippery ball.
At Iowa we fumbled two triple passes
behind the line to the Hawkeyes.
Coaches say wet field is strong
defense. You cannot tell anything
about your offense on a slippery fleld
in fall of rain.
Beaten Teams Dangerous.
Deliver me from defeated teams! Our
only defeat in two seasons, 1927 ana
1928, came last year from Michigan.
which had been bumped of no less
than four times previously. ONO state
deserved to beat the wolverines last
week because the Buckeyes were better
in the pinches, but don't overlook the
fact that Michigan gained four times
as much ground. I believe Michigans
power is beginning to show.
The Nebraska Missouri game in all
probability will decide the champion
ship of the Big Six, as Missouri seems
to be the team that must do 1t II the
Cornhuskers are to be knocked on the
Missouri Valley throne.
This is the first appearance Of Ne
braska against a Valley team, for the
Cornhuskers have been ranging far
afield. They were held to tie by
Southern Methodist, but constantly
threatened; they travelled East to beat
Syracuse and returned to lose to Pitts
burgh. But If Pitt is as good as they
tell us the little end of 1877 score Is
nothing to be ashamed OF.
Bible Requires Time.
Nebraska has lost a group of good
men from the 1928 champions, and
new coach, Dana x. Bible, is introduc-
ing his system which requires some
time. Nebraska scored on Pittsburgh
with a surprise pass, and If the Corn
huskers combine the power they usually
display with versatile aerial attack
they will be hard to beat.
Missouri has defeated Iowa State and
Drake handily and apparently is
greatly improved over last season.
Coach Gwinn Henry usually presents a
strong passing game. and in the past
has cut down Nebraska with this
weapon when the Cornhuskers looked
far stronger. But guess Nebraska,
because the Cornhuskers have the re-
serve strength that will decide any tight
battle.
