in Rapid Order and Corn
htiskers Finish First Half
With 12 to 7 Lead.
1NCOLN, Jan. G.
—Flashing unex
petted strength
and outfighting
the Tigers fron
Missouri Satur
day night, Nt
liraska won the
game which
opened the con
ference season
for both teams.
24 to 18. The
Tifrers led for a
few minutes in
the first half
but lue lluskers. with the aid of four
free throws and a field basket, got
into ft slender lead which they man
aged to hold throughout the remain
der of the game.
Good son, sent In to relieve Black
*0?Ust before the first half closed,
tossed three goals from the floor In
rapid succession and as a result the
Huskers were holding a 12 to 7 ad
vantage when the half ended. The
Tigers came back strong when the
second half opened but they were un
able to get out in front.
Black, Husker center and for
ward, brought hack memories of
Bun Browning, last year Missouri
star, Black dribbled the length of
the floor in the second half and
caged a perfect basket and followed
the shot up witli another sensa
tional piece of floor work which
netted another field goal.
Hester, M.ssouri center, was high
point man for the Tigers. His work
beneath the basket was good.
It was a great game to watch
from a spectator's point of view.
There they were two quintets with
defense that appeared impregnable at
first. The score was close through
out and a rush of luck Tigerward
would have put the Bengals out in
front at any time.
Coach Bond of Missouri usrd
seven men and ( oach Kline of Ne
braska, flip same number. Just be
fore he went out on tlie personal
foul rule, (joodson caged two shots,
one of which came from what ap
peared to be an impossible angle.
The Tiger defense cracked in Un
dying minutes of the first half, Just
long enough to permit Goodson to
get through for three baskets.
Oklahoma is Nebraska's conference
foe. The Souliers play here Monday
night.

Colima
rEW YORK, Jan. 3.—The middle
weight division, well nigh de
funct for years, suddenly finds
itself possessed of some little class.
It Is in a fair way to a real re
vival. It requires the activity of the
matchmakers, who seem to have lost
sight of the division, to put it back
where it belongs.
For years it has been said that the
division died with the pasting of Stan
ley Ketchel, The Michigan Assas
sin. This saying finally came to be
accepted as a fact. A number of
mediocre champions of the division,
added to the belief that the class was
gone.
Ilut in the last two or three years
new middleweight* liave been de
veloping.
There may be no Ketch'is among
them but there are some real
good men in tile division, as good
in point of boxing ability a* the
division has ever known.
The trouble with the middleweight
division, as the writer sees it, is
lhat the matchmakers have fallen
in with tlv> theory that the divis
ion has disappeared. Instead of
matching middleweight* against
middleweight!*, they matrh middle
weights against light-heavyweights,
and tlie light-heavyweight class is
small. A middleweight nowadays
is a man who weighs 160 ixiunris
or under, while if he scales a pound
above 160 pounds lie rates as a
light-heavyweight.
As a matter of fact, the very best
of the middleweight.* today with the
exception of the champion, Harry
Orel), are men around 158 pounds and
even lighter.
As proof of the class of the division
just now. the writer makes bold to
say that there are half a dozen legiti
mate middleweight.* who ran give
lireli a good fight, perhaps best him,
yet Greh has been whipping light
heavyweights and heavyweights for
years.
A class must be good that has
men able to stand off a man who has
beat n Tom Gibbons, a fighter who
went 15 rounds with Jack Dempsey.
There are three real good English ;
middleweight* in America at the I
present time, {{olanil Todd, the Eng
lish champion; Ted Moore and j
Frank Moody.
The first showing the matchmak
ers here gave Todd was against j
light-heavyweights. They did not !
accord him flic courtesy of a show |
mg against a man in hi* own class, i
Todd lost flic decision, but made a
strong impression.
Moore and Moody are hotli good
men. They have had few- oppor
tunities since coining to America.
Johnny Wilson, as the writer told
you the other day. has Improved
greatly since ho lost the middleweight
title. In a finish fight the writer
would pick Wilson to laat any mid
dleweight in tlie world.
He is a slow beginner. He picks
up as a fight progr -sea. At the- end
of his 15-round fight with Greb, in
which he lost the title, Wilson was
coming on so stoutly that the w-riter
believes he would have stopped Greb
in 25 round*.
St Paul, the home of some good
middleweight* of the post. Danny
Needham, Mike Gibbons. Mike
O'Dowd, among them, has another en
try in the class in Jock Malone, one
of the cleverest men in the game
Malone is a light middleweight, rarely
weighing much over 150 pounds.
Detroit has a collegian entr^- In Bob
Sage, who studies law in between ring
engagements. Sage is a good boxer
and a strong hitter.
Other middleweight* who make the
division compare favorably with any
other period of it* history arc Ilert
Colina of the Pacific coast, the great
est four-round fighter in the world;
Jack Delaney of Bridgeport, who once
stopped Colina, and Kugene Ratner.
I he Harlem Hurricane.
Then there Is Dan lilt key's new
man, Paul Berlenback, picked by
many shrewd observers as the next
champion of the class, and I^-o H.
Flynn's dark skinned dlnmond belt
holder, Panama Joe Guns.
Nick Allen Will

ican association baseball club, is to

Bumped into Gene Tummy recently.
"So you thought I won that last
fight easily. Thanks. I thought so,
too. You think the one before that
belonged to Greb? Well, opinion
seems to he a bit divided on that,"
was Tunney's broad-minded response.
"I wouldn't think of quarreling with
any man's hottest opinion of that af
fair. I thought I won, although 1
admit ’twas close.
"However, all mands seem to be con
vinced that I now have Harry's num
ber, including myself. Funny thing
about this conviction business,"
philosophised Gene. "Do you know
when I first oeeame * ■•nv.ru \ t! it
I could master Greb? Strange as it
may seem, but it was ju t after the
gong rang ending our first battle
That was the one in which Greb
butted xnv nose to a fracture, and
made me lose about a quart of blond
in addition to banding me a good
beating. That seems odd, but leiuerr
Ikt Newton conceived the law of
gravity when an apple dropped on his
bean and made his ears ring.
“It was the same way with me
in the first Greb battle. 1 made the
mistake of trying to land a knockout
nn his bobbing bead And 1 hndn't
a chance in the world. But I
didn't realize that till afier the fight.
Once I realized my error the natural
si ,uence presented Itself: that way
was wrong, now which one Is right?
“My motto conclusion was, ‘n fel
low can duck lus head, but no boxer,
not even flreb, can duck h a stomach!’
you all know how well that plan
worked I pounded everlastingly at
>he midsection anil took enough of
the fight out of Harry to win."
Funny, Isn't it. where fighters
sometimes get the idea they can beat
the i thCr fellow? F"r Instance, Young
i ubett as an unknown had Terry
McGovern's number filed away
n ntlis before the Denverite put th*
famous Terrible Terry down and
out. Corbett saw a f ght film of Ter
ry. He decided right then and there
that he had a faster and straighter
pum hing right hand.
'I knew the afternoon I left the
theater that I could get inside of
that McOovern swing and drop him.
1 saw the picture five times. K ch
time strengthened tny belief that
Terry's style was made to order for
me." explained Corbett.
Jack Johnson got the Idea he could
master Jeffries In an entirely dif
ferent way. Years b< fore Jeff re
tired undefeated Johnson hurled chal
lenges -it the Big Fellow, which Jeff
never faded to turn do wo 'lit ".Vow
the mere fact that Jeff wouldn’t
l
he wasn't confident he on Id trim
me," explained Lil Arthn
Jeffries became fired with the no
tlon he could whip Jim 1 ori-ttulien
he was employed ns the latter s spar
liner partner. That was at Carson
City vh^n Corbett v. m training for
the FI mons fight. C<
to pound th<* gr» • n Jeffrie* ull over
the t m Jeff annoyed Corbett be
rally- h* w.is ;ibP to t ke all Corbett
had with-it f \-* n s* L-eering.
Battling Nelson became etf,|utly
imbued with the idea that ho could
whip Jimmy Britt by. seeing the
latter on Ihf street. Nelson was a
shaggy, rough sort of fellow. with
no frills of any kind. Brut, then
white lightweight champion. v,*as a

Life of Major

New York, Jan. 6,—These *'!•
sigh f"r the luxury of a hall playe:
existence would do well to remembei
that a rose must have its thorn. Tin
hall player is a ra- at impermanent
individual. He may have plenty cl
I money but he must get it quick an
often. _
A few merry years at the raoi
and then—the Inevitable. He pass'.
| on down into the minor leagues and
the limbo Of baseball * forgotten.
Few Veterans I>eft.
Twelve years ago there were some
-4CK) men following baseball. Tod-,
just 11{ of them remain on the lie
time, and of this number two—IJnUe
Adams, of the Pirates and Jack
i.julnn. "f the lb 1 Sox—put in part
if this time in the miners. Most of
the others carry the great names
of the sport.
They ate Tv Obh, Walter John
son, Tri* Speaker, Zack Wheat, Jake
Liaiiljert. .Max Carey, Eddie Collins,
Harry Hu per. Hu be MarquarJ. Stuf
fy M duties end J- hn Collins. Twelve
years hardiy can be said to ever a
■ carter, and many of those named
| have about reachi-4 the end of their
i 'ether as active players.
Fare Difficult fur \d.ims.

'.along very car fully The s-ason of
; 1*24 probably will be his last In the
' major*. It may 1 the same for
Itaubert, Hooper, Marquard and
i John Collins.
Even th~ great Cobb is inclined to
vleld to the flesh at last. He ha*
‘••on quoted to the effect that he
will he a bench manager after 3924.
Me g fortunate that he can be any
I thing when the end comes.
He and most of the others are thi

i cf the avenge ball player. The lat

| five or six years and then passes be
j vend the pale. He has the alterna
•ivr of qu: :rg h t-all and prepar
ing himself Pm s> me permanent
souri e of lr.i me or taking a fkng a',
the mb r league game. Almost in
variably the latter is his choice, for
he cannot conceive of anything ex
cept an abrupt return to the majors.
This sel font 1 sppens.
A half c ren * as ns on the sn ail
