F0OtDall OF a callDfe SelQOm
seen except in large cities
supporting professional
teams, will be played in Red
wood Falls Armistice night
when Chicago sends its fam
Gus Brown Bombers for a
game with the fast, hard hit
ting Comets of Des Moines.
The second pro football
game at Memorial Field was
assured late Wednesday af-
ternoon when contracts sent
to the teams were confirmed
in kilograms. Earlier in the
week an intensive campaign
to sell tickets to business
men for resale, was conduct
ed to raise the $1,000 requir-
ed for guarantees and other ex-
penSeS incidental to the game.
More than $500 worth of tickets
had been sold before noon today.
Last year the Des Moines team
played st. Paul here in the fea-
>ture attraction of the dedication
of the field. Des Moines won a
IA to decision in an extremely
hard-fought game and there has
been agitation here for months
to bring the Comets back, to face
even tougher opposition. Last
week it was learned that the
Brown Bombers could be obtain
ed for an Armistice game and the
drive started to raise the neces-
sary funds.
The Chicago team claims the
worlds colored football title and
no doubt deserves the distinction
for its lineup includes Ozzie
Simmons, the University of Iowa
star back; Homer Harris, an end
who captained the Iowa team;
Dwight Reed, recently a Golden
Gopher and long list of other
lufninaries.
pes Moines has most of IFS last
years players but has strengthen
ed several positions and last Sun
day cinched the Northwest Pro-
fessional football championship.
The Bombers are a free lance
team, not members of a league.
Vandever, the colored half
back who thrilled fans with his
open field running last year, is in
the lineup again and his threats
are made doubly serious for the
opposition by the addition of Joe
Antonio, a Colorado university
blocking back whose work helped
get Whizzer White All-American
honors last season. Vandever
scored both touchdowns here last
year, which brought his total
points for last season to 85. Other
stars in the Comet lineup include
the Odds twins, tackles; Hickman
and Zika at ends; Halopeck at
cents; Miller, guard and Rock,
fullback, another University of
Iowa player.
Seats for the big time game are
81. Sponsored by the Civic and
Commerce association, the game
is expected to draw huge crowd
from wide area. Any profits will
be used in association activities,
particularly the diamond jubilee
next year and the farmers in
stitute planned during the winter.
Practically every business place
in the city has reserved seats on
sale and arrangements will be
made for sale in other towns.

ROANOKE GAME.

In an effort to make the second
game Of the Georgetown football
schedule as interesting as possible
despite the opposition, Coach Jack
Hagerty plans to start a combina-
ton of second and third stringers
against Roanoke College in Grit
fifth Stadium tomorrow.
Forced to face such weak oppo-
sition at this stage of the season
through no fault of his, Hagerty
believes he may as well give the
Hoya reserves as much work as
possible, saving his regulars for
the hard games later on.
Therefore he will start the
following lineup:
Frank Donohue and Bill Wixted,
ends; Bill Nealon and Tom Rob
ertSon, tackles; Bill Burke and
Mark Estimate, guards, with Jim

lines up with Jim CaStiglia, Joe

KOUCHTON SETS
D. C. OPEN PACE.
With 142 CARD
BY Lillian RIXEY

With the smallest field in years
competing, the District Open goes
into the final 36 holes Of medal
play today at Washington Golf
and Country Club, with AL Hough-
ton, the Old Point Comfort pro, in
the lead with a card of 142, two
over par, for the first two rounds.
The "Silver Fox as Houghton
is called by his fellow pros because
of his long, wavy, Silver-tipped
locks, has five times won the Mary
land Open championship and is
the only man in the country ever
to compete in the National ANA
teur, the National Open, the Ma
ton P. G. A. championship and
the National Public Links event.
Six prizes will be awarded in
the pro ranks and two for the
amateurs in the current District
Open, thus insuring one out Of
every third pro of being in the
money and half of the amateurs
of winning prize.
PREDICTS CORRECTLY
Yesterday in a cold drizzle, the
tricky Washington layout proved
a tough one for the towns best
pros. No one broke par, just as
little Dave Thomson, the host pro,
predicted, including Dave himself.

tered in the current tournament.
True, last year, playing under
winter rules, Al Houghton romped
around the washington course in
81, but for record purposes that
doesn't count.
FINISHES SECOND
Witty Cox, of Congressional,
local favorite, shot a consistent
1912 for his IA to finish second
to Houghton in the first days
play. Cliff Spencer, long-driving
Beaver Dam pro, was just behind
with 72-73-145.
