JOHNSTON SEEKS
TO GET CONTROL
OF make BAER
BY JACK CUDDY

OIllteU freSS SCa1I correspondent
NEW YORK, Oct. 81. = Jimmy
Johnston, the sallow little man
who promotes big fights for Mad
ison Square Garden, has aroused a
storm of protest in the boxing
business by telling Max Baer of
California how to become worlds
heavyweight champion.
The first step, Jimmy explained
in a message to the Livermore
Mauler, was to have Charley
Johnston (Jimmy's brohter) be-
come his manager. .
When Jimmy sent this wire to
Baer, inviting him to desert his
mine or 10 managers" the pro-
moter of Americas largest punch
emporium put himself right on the
spot for his many critics.
It seems that Johnston was un-
able to persuade Baer's various
managers to accept little bout
with Champion Jack Sharkey in
June, in case Max Schmeling re-
fused to challenge. And Schmel-
ing's manager has assured Jimmy
that Max will not fight Sharkey
in June. This left Jimmy at loose
ends because Sharkeys contract
with the garden expires June so.
No other worth while contenders
are in sight.
Wherefore, Jimmy explained, for
the good of the fight game and
Madison Square Garden, he ad-
vised Baer to leave his staff of
managers and join the royal fam
lily of pugilism.
His message assured Make that
brother Charley would attend to
the "other managers" legally.
But the critics, who apparently
comprise the remaining half of the
boxing world not tied up with the
royal family, insinuate that brother
Charley is merely a figurehead in
the managing business. They in
innate that Jimmy is actually
matching his own fighters at the
garden.
Such a lineup is banned by vir-
tually every boxing commission in
the country.

big GAME AT
PALO ALTO HAS
FANS GUESSING

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 21.-U.P)
Headed by the Stanford-South-
ern California clash at Palo Alto,
the Pacific Coast conference sched-
ule for tomorrow promises several
treats for the more than 100000
spectators who will swarm into the
stadiums.
The Cardinal-Trojan contes S t
brings together two of three un-
beaten and united teams of the
conference. The winner will have
an excellent chance to grab the
mythical conference title.
University of California at Los
Angeles, the third team with an
unblemished record, meets Califor-
mia Tech, a on-conference rival.
The game should provide the Bru-
ins a "breather" for their engage
ment next week with Stanford.
California, beaten a week ago by
Washington State, will make ano-
ther effort to get its offensive to
functioning. The Golden Bears
meet Jimmy Phelan's unbeaten
Washington Huskies in Seattle. The
Huskies tied Oregon in their only
conference tilt to date, and have
had two weeks of rest since then.
AS result they will be slight fav-
orites over the Bears.
Smarting from the 1877 defeat
they received from U. C. L. A, the
heavy oregon Webfeet trek over
to Moscow to meet the light but
speedy Idaho Vandals. Although
Oregon should win, the Idaho pass
ing attack probably will threaten
the Webfoot goal a few times dur
ing the afternoon.
The other conference tilt of the
day finds Oregon State pitted
against Babe Hollingsbery's pow
erful Washington State team. The
Beavers pin their hopes for victory
on the belief the Cougars may suf-
fer let down after their hard won
To victory over California.
Montana remains out of confer
ence rivalry, staging a civil war
against Montana State. Although

United Press Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, Oct. 21.-Sad news,
pards, sad news. The Old Herr
Professor, sage of the Catskills and
ace football Handicapped, is gone.
We learned this today when we
sought the professor for his weekly
list of winners. When we walked
into the Long Island collar button
factory where the professor is on
the payroll as tester, we were
met by the foreman, a person
named Ed Smith.
Hes gone" Ed said.
"Where?" we asked.
Ed pointed to a gaping hole in
the ceiling.
Through there"
Ed said the professor was put
ting his invention, an exploding
collar button, to the final test
when the accident occurred. The
invention worked. In fact, worked
too we'll. The professors collar
came off and he took off. Ed
wasn't sure whether the professor
was done for permanently or not.
When last seen he was headed in
the general direction of Tuscaloosa,
Alabama, and travelling fast.
So there's nothing for us to do
but go to bat for the professor.
That's okay by us. The professor
was batting but .750, and we can
do that well with one hand tied
behind us.
Please watch us go!

STANFORD TEAM
in GOOD SHAPE
FOR BIG GAME
By RICHARD C. WILSON
United Press Staff Correspondent


PALO ALTO, Oct. 81. One
Glenn Scobey Warmers 10 years
as Stanford University coach will
face an unscored upon University
of Southern California eleven be-
fore a crowd expected to exceed
10000 in Stanford stadium tomor-
row.
On the basis of the strength
they have shown in previous games,
the Cardinals are conceded a fav-
orable chance to avenge last years
1910 defeat at the hands of How
ard Jones 1881 national champions,
and become a threat for national
honors this year.
Warner believes that the team
he will put on the field tomor-
row comes nearer to being "an IL
man team" than any in his 81
colorful years of football coaching
BY this description, the veteran
Pop" explains, his Cardinal squad
is not dependent upon the ground
gaining ability of any one player.
Although the Trojans are with
out a Shaver, Arbelbide or Pine
kert this year, they have one of
the most powerful lines that has
been seen on the Pacific coast in
several seasons. Averaging 201
pounds per man, the Troy forward
wall will outweigh Stanford's line
more than 10 pounds per man.
Southern California has not been
scored upon in the four games they
have played this year. One touch
down has been pushed across the
Cardinal goal in five games.
Warner has developed a back
field that has consistently shown
to advantage in all offensive tao
tics. Ernie Caddel rangy fleet
footed halfback, is regarded by
many critics as an All-American
candidate. In every appearance
this season he has brought spec
tators from their seats by his spec
tacular wide, sweeping runs around
end-invariably evading tacklers
for Is to 80 yards.
In this department of tomorrows
contest, the Jones team will prob
ably rely upon Orv Mohler, Troy'S
elusive quarterback. That Jones
may be holding an ace in the hole
was indicated today when he let
it be known that Bob Getz, a
transfer from st. Marys college,
might start at fullback. Getz
made his first appearance in a
Trojan uniform against Loyola last
week, showing consistent driving
power.
Stanford partisans feel that the
last minute touchdown by which
Southern California defeated the
scrappy Loyola team revealed the
extent of Troy's 1882 offensive.
Previously, it had been suspected
that Jones was concealing the Tro-
jan offensive strength until such
tests as Stanford will present to-
morrow.

ROss-BattalinO
Battle Tonight

CHICAGO, Oct. 21.-W.P)-Bar-
ney Ross, Chicago's up and coming
lightweight, will get his chance
tonight to fight his way into the
select circle of 1875 pounds when he
meets Bat Battalino, Hartford,
Conn, former featherweight, cham
pion, in a scheduled 10 round
bout in the Chicago stadium.
Ross has won nine consecutive
bouts, in which he gave Ray Mil
Ter a beating and knocked out
frankie Petrolle. Battalino has lost
twice to frankie Petrolle in the
last few months.
A crowd of about 10000 is ex-
pected to pay approximately $20,-
600 to see the bout. Ross is an 8
to favorite.

CENTRAL MEETS
HOLTVILLE TEAM
ON LOCAL GRID

Finished with the early games
which make no mark on the final
record, Central Union high school,
will send it's powerful football
squad onto the local field at o.
clock tonight to open the Imperial
Valley league schedule against a
rejuvenated Holtville team which
may prove the hardest obstacle the
Spartans have yet hurdled.
That it takes a league game to
work up the greatest pitch of en-
thusiasm at the high school was de-
monstrated this morning in a rally
which gave promise that the en-
tire student body will be at the
field tonight to back the Spartans
against their east side foes.
Augmented by a large roofing
section from Holtville and loyal
fans from territory surrounding
both HoltVille and Ell Centro, the
crowd probably will be the largest
yet to attend a football game at
Ell Centro.
At the same time that El Cen
tro is opening the season against
Holtville, Brawley will be enter
tanning Calexico in a contest whiSl
should intimate which team will
be Centrals greatest rival for the
valley championship this season.
Whether they win or lose to-
night, the Ell Centro team and
its two coaches, Robert Armstrong
and Don Ketchen, will be guests
of the United Artists theature Sat-
urday afternoon at a showing of
the picture, All-American. Twenty
five players will accompany the
coaches to the show.

ton to the kicking department Of

Burning Wild Grass
Should Be Done EarLg.

Burning of wild grass in meadows
should be done Just as early as possible
according to opinions given by the
state forest rangers and other foresters.
The subject was discussed at the recent
meeting of state forest rangers in
Duluth
Immediate attention to meadow
burning as the snow retreats win
greatly aid forestry officials in their
efforts to prevent serious fires. It viii
also prevent the fire from running back
into second growth on land not suitable
for farming.
Extreme good judgment is indispen-
sable as conditions vary in different
counties of Northern Minnesota Burn
ing may be quite safe in one district
at time when it would be hazardous
IN another. Evening burning is much
safer than morning burning as the wind
is usually lighter and there is more
moisture IN the air. It Is essential to
have enough help to prevent fires
getting beyond bounds.
