gate of s30,57O.75. could hardly
believe they were watching the pride
OF Maxwell street. Instead of firing
away with his famous right hand,
the King turned loose an almost
Tommy Loughran-like left jab.
After the customers became accus-
toned to this strange sight, they
roared approval as he poured it into
Lasky's features. So effective was the
weapon that Lasky left the ring with
cuts over both eyes and a chunk of
hide off his nose
Force of habit made Levinsky toss

Of the larger State universities of the
country, with an enrolment of 1000.
The only major university in the
wide area which includes Minnesota.
and the two Dakotas, it is the natural
school for students from that sector
and also from Northern Wisconsin.
Further, being a very wealth State
university it has a nominal tuition
and the varied industries of Min
neapolis and st. Paul offer many op-
portunities for self-supporting STU
dents.
So Minnesota uses home products
to make its foot ball teams. OF the
as players listed on this years var
sity roster, "a are natives of the
State. Four hail from Northern Wis
consin, hard by the Minnesota bor-
der, and each of the Dakotas is
represented py two of its sons. The
three foreigners" come from Buffalo,
N. Y; Seattle, Wash, and Rockford,
ILL.,, and there is a good reason for
their presence at Minnesota. Thus
it becomes evident that Minnesota'S
foot ball team is not the product Of
any sort of proselyting.
Although Minnesota always has had
fine foot ball material, both as to size
and numbers, it has not won an out
right Western Conference champion
ship in 20 years. Previous Gopher
teams nearly all have approximated
the 1884 eleven in size and strength
but their offense was so much predi-
Gated upon natural power they lacked
the deception necessary to win in
modern foot ball. There used to be
a proverb in the Big Ten that "a Min
nesota team always would beat itself
at least once in a season."

Gets Quick Results.
BY FRANCIS J. POWERS.

)HICAGO, November 23.-
Whence come these mighty
men of Minnesota, who have
made the Gophers not only
the No. / team of the 1884 season,
but also one Of the most powerful
combinations in the history of foot
ball?
Minnesota's answer is, they are
homegrown. Products of the cities
and towns, the plains, woods and
iron ranges of the State and North
west. They are the same strain which
has been playing foot ball for the
University of Minnesota for nearly
40 years"
Since the birth of foot ball in the
Middle West, Minnesota always has
been noted for its fine material and
few teams in the Western Conference
have been able consistently to match
the Gophers in manpower. Our
Northwest was pioneered, for the most
part, by Scandinavians and those
sturdy settlers not only endowed their
descendants with powerful bodies, but
also the desire for higher education.
Minnesota foot ball teams essentially
are Scandinavian in their personnel.
Occasionally a boy of Polish, Bo-
hemian or Latin extraction will be
found on a Gopher eleven, but the
old line Anglo Saxon names seldom
are heard on the Minnesota gridiron.

Maj. Harvey L. Miller, secretary Of

tee was misinformed as to the avail
ability of Heinz, learning he would
be out of town on Labor day. Walker
Kirkwood was substituted, but since
the committee has been advised
Heinz will be back in town and Is
training for the Labor day bout.
When Miller learned that Kirk
wood and Burns boxed in Baltimore
and that Burns won in bout not so
thrilling, Miller promptly restored
Heinz to the spot for which he origi-
nally was booked.
A four-round spot is not for him,
feels Roddy Davis, local lightweight,
and consequently he has refused to
box Jim Monnin Of Chicago on the
Labor day card featuring Tony Ga
