Ray Beardslee's leaders wilted badly under fire last week and if they do not take a brace right away their chances will go aglim- mering. Poor Ray himself took terrific battering from the verbal batteries of Pat Dwyer and George Lynch when Dodds sunk the little man for four points. In spite of the pleadings of Uncle Joe Blum, who did everything to rally his CO., horts, the Doddsmen could not be stopped. It simply was not in the stars.
 Two crestfallen young men are Ed By and Ray LautenschIager. While they were riding the crest of the wave of success they go up there to first place. Then they made the mistake of mentioning to one of the league members that all there was to it was to clinch the bunt. ing. From that point on they wanted their team called the Clinchers. But the Clinchers have failed to clinch for they have lost eight points fin their last two starts. How the mighty have fallen.
 The mighty atom Ray Mills has his gang stepping and have been pummelling the leads aplenty of late. This is the team we are pick ing to bear watching and they are going to have lot to say about who takes first place.

McAvoy, fighting since he was Is
years old, came to these shores last
month unheralded as a fighter and
believed by most boxing experts to
be another typical English battler,
one along the lines OF 'horizontal"
Phil Scott.
In his first scrap McAvoy was
fairly impressive as he pounded out
l0-round decision over Al Mccoy
of Boston, who entered the ring a
4-to-1 favorite.
Last night, however, a new Nc
Avoy was produced-a man who
floored Middleweight Champion
Eddie (Babe) Risko of Syracuse six
times and then smashed him down
for 10 with a short hard right to
the chin, all in one round.
Thus the man who holds both the
middleweight and light-heavyweight
championships of Great Britain
clinched a title bout with Lewis,
probably in January or February.
In those two fights McAvoy
showed he has more than enough
guns to whip Lewis-a punch, first
class boxing and the ability to take
it.
His punch was put on display in
America for the first time last night
in Madison Square Garden in a
noa-title scrap. However, II be

Bulldog Defense Is Geared High to Cope
With Purdues Fast Break Here Tonight
Butler Cunning for Second
Victory, While Invaders
Seek No. q.

When the Purdue Boilermakers
take to the hardwood at Butler
f1eldhouse tonight at 8:15 they are
to be met by a Bulldog squad that
is reported to have gained more
than determination in drills this
week.
For the last few afternoons the
Bulldogs have been working strenu-
ously to build a stronger defense,
and Coach Tony Hinkle has been
encouraging them to pepper away
on long shots, recalling that their
percentage has been none too high
for the first three games.
Cosgrove May Start
The reserves have been showing
up well against the varsity, and
Coach Hinkle has made several
changes in his first team, hoping
to find combination that will
click. Ralph Cosgrove, an Indian
apolis boy, seems to have the inside
track, and probably will start to-
night along with Armstrong, Brat
ford, Jones and Bats. Cosgrove has
displayed good form on defense, and
that is what Coach Hinkle is look
ing for.
Seward Gives Purdue Heighth
Nest of the defensive practice has
been based on the goal of stopping
Purdue's speed plays. The Boiler
makers only tall man is Jim
Seward, formerly a Shortridge star.
The rest of the upstate boys are
average size. The Lambertmen will
be cunning for their fourth victory
tonight.
If the Bulldogs, who list two losses
and one triumph, upset the invading
quintet, things will brighten up"
around the Hinkle camp before the
boys leave for Christmas vacation.
Hinkle has limited that the players
may have a longer vacation if the
game is won.

wins the light-heavyweight crown,
McAvoy may take off some weight
and go after Risko'S title mex
spring.
McAvoy's first blow of the battle,
a stiff right, sent Risko to the floor
for the count of one-the second
time Eddie had been floored in his
long career. Five more times the
battering Briton swarmed over his
man and crashed him to the deck
for counts ranging from five to
eight.
The last time Risko rose he was
groggy and bounced off the ropes
into the middle of the ring, where
a short right put him down for the
final COUNT minutes 48 seconds
after the scrap began. It was the
first time Risko had been counted
out.
1t was fortunate for Risko that he
had refused to make the encounter
title affair-as McAvoy desired.
Because of Risko's refusal, it was
an weight match, with Nc
Avoy, at 1885,, enjoying distinct
pull over Risko's 1913. Risko land
ed only one solid blow-a wilS left
hook to NIcAvoy's jaw after the
champion had risep from the second
kuockdoWu.
