Valley Schools ^ Follow Huskers TJnroln, Rept. 10.—A mirvey of Missouri Valley schedules this season Indicates that the majority of con ference members have at last seen the light which dawned a good many years ago at Nebraska. They have decided that It Is much better to meet the big teams and get beaten than to go through a season undefeat ed by preying upon the elevens from smaller Institutions. The clearest way of pointing out the changed condition is by setting forth the schedules for the entire conference with the non-conference games marked by an asterisk. The valley schedule for the season by weeks is as follows: September 17. Ama against Nebraska Wesleyan at Ames.* October 4. Missouri against Chicago at Chicago.♦ Kansas against Oklahoma A.

Lack of Suitable Material at New Institution Handicaps Coaches—Plan Strong Second Team. « ITH a large amount of ground apace, a new quarter mile cinder track,, new gym, swimming pool, Fontenelle golf course not four blocks away, and, best of all, a world of "pep,” Zip Hill and Coach Ira Jones will ■end out the In itial call for grld 1 r o n candidates at Omaha's new eat high school V. CISIv. Even though there is nt^t a wealth of material In school It Is thought that a sufficient number of huskies will answer the call to form a team that will stack up against the second teams of the- other Omaha schools In first class style. Milan Olds, last year's tarkle and guard at Central High, will he there to help North High’s first line. Other men who will proba bly answer the rail are Ixiule Olds, Harold Martin, Paul Petersen and Horry Johnson. Still more candi dates are expected to spring up from the ranks of the present un knowns. In talking over basket ball, base ball and track. Coach Jones seemed still more enthusiastic over the first year's prospects. These sports are not dependent on as large a num ber of athletes and the north side mentor thinks that trams In these sports for the coming year can be developed with enough speed to meet the first trams of other Oma ha schools. The "pep” among the atudents makes things look as though they would back a team even though It were inexperienced. They are all anxious to see a team with North High colors enter^into athletic compe tition with other high schools of Omaha.

Kiaua* aud Bak»r, Firpo Favored to Win in Bout With Harrv Wills Both Fighters Finish Training Activities for Mix Thurs day Night; Closely Fought Battle Looked for. By Anftorlutrtf PreM. KW YORK, Sept. 9.—I. ii I a A n g el Firpo and Harry Wills, rival aspir ant* for .1 a v it Dempsey's crown, have completed their training aixl today they de clared themselves fit for their bat tle, scheduled for Thursday night in Doyle’s Thirty Acres, Jersey City. Firpo, because of his devastating right-hand punch, loomed tonight as a slight favorite with several wagers being reported on him at odds of fi to 3, but critics who have followed the giant gladiators in their preparations the last few weeks look for a close ly fought battle. There seems to be general agree ment that the fight will not go the limit of 12 rounds but on the other hand a fairly even division of opinion as to whether the expected knockout will be scored by the “Wild Bull'' or the “Brown Panther.” As no decisions are permitted under the New Jersey boxing laws, the verdict. In case the match goes the limit, will be unoffi clal. /Due to the uncertainty caused by deportation proceedings against Fir pa, the advance seat sale has not come up to expectations. It has passed $300,000 however. Promoter Tex Rickard said If the revival of Interest manifested today continues the bowl Is expected to be packed to its limit of about 90,000 with gate re ceipts approximating $1,000,000. Despite a heavy downpour, most of today, hundreds of fans stormed the box office at Madison Square Gar den In search of tickets which range in price from $2 for general admis sion to ringside seals at $27.30 each. Both fighters are confident of the outcome. Firpo relies on his slug ging ability, aggressiveness and re cuperative powers to beat down the super-defensive skill of Wills, who has other assets In his greater ex perience and shiftier footwork. The negro la better at Infighting, also has an effective punch In either hand, while Firpo, unless he has altered hiu style of bat (ling, will rely chiefly upon his powerful right when the fray Is hottest.

CLOSE finishes marked the races of the second day of the Ak Sar-Ben fall meeting Tuesday. The horse which won by a length or more was rare and time after time as the winner flashed under the wire the customers were on their feet shouting at the top of their voices for some bfxngtail. considered somewhat of an outsider, which was fighting gamely to hold its lead of a nose or a head. Jockey Elston again covered him self with glory. He shooed In three winners and conducted himself in a manner befitting the "big time.” Tlie little jockey began his win ning in tlie second event. He had tlie leg up on Due de Guise in that race. As tile thoroughbreds went to tlie post few eyes were turned to . tlie Duke. Miss Spears, Nancy Winet and William Oldt all catne in for their share of encouragement. Tile spectators thought they would win. As the barrier was sprung Elston kicked his mount in front. Leading by a bead at the far turn he uniim i liered his whip and then it was the Duke the rest of the wgy. Elston rode to win and showed It. Mies Spears challenged him in the stretch but he beat her off and slipped under tlie wire a winner by a nose. Nancy Winet took the consolation one of the purse and William Oldt ran so far back he was almost lost. In the third race Riston again kicked home a winner. He had Angela for a mount that time and carried her nlong In fine shape, sllp ' ping under the wire a nose to the ! good again. IJttle Less fought gamely throughout tlie stretch but was forced to be satisfied with second money. Old Blue did his best and finished third. J-dston next had a mount In the fifth event. This time he was a lit tle more fortunate in that he brought Miraim Wood home on top by three-quarters of a length. Cromwell was the leading opposi tion to Miraim- and took second |da<‘e while Whiff was third. Those tluee -races elided Elston's efforts for tlie day. But there were others who rode to win and won by n email margin. Miss Bulge. F. Ilorniip, took the first by less than a length. Pat Carter was second and Ruth Webie third. Fox’s Choice won the fourth event with very little time to spare. Spice Bush, closing 4n a beautiful rush, was theratening him and took ac-cond money, . . Arietta. Atwell up, took the sixth by a nose. Pauline M, fighting to the last, took second and Bond was third. Tlie closing event went to Brian Kent, Pendergrass up. Peter Tier son was second and Gail Ford third. / ———————————— 1 ~ \ docker’s Selections _/ First race—Miriam Wood, Canny Lady, Praiseworthy, Second race—Broadway Rose, Katie Dear, t'ncle Seth.
