Pome of thoM eo-called "small" col
leges have been playing Uta kind of foot
ball for tha last two years that roar force
tha root ball experts to give tbam full
consideration with Tale. Harvard. FTlnoe
ton and Dartmouth in selecting tha east
ern champion.
A duplicate of ths wonderful Washlng"
toa and Jefferson eleven of jnl aaama to
ta la oar ml dot again, playing a gams of
foot ball that nona af tha big aestern
tnmi have eseeeded ao far thla season.
The Washington and Jaffaraoa outfit
want throws tha I'll aaaaon without meet
ing defeat. It played Tala to a O-to-0 tla,
heat Orova City 100 to a, Buoknell 88 to 0
find defeated Pens Stat IT to . It wu
scored on only twice.
Tha Washington aad Jefferson trtftt of
thla aaaaon want against ML Union la
tta first run, beating- tbam N U 1 la
Washington and Jefferson's neitt fame.
against tha hnaky Dickinson eleven. It
rolled vp 108 point, holding- Dickinson
scoreless. Any team that can collar! a
score of etteh also, against area tha weak
rut sort of foa, deaerres a lot of con
sideration. Aad Dickinson cannot ba
ranked as a weak eleven.
Leal aria Dhartra Class.
rthlch. another of tha "smaller" col
leges, tackled the powerful Indian eleven
on October 1 and beat It to a pulp. The
Carllsla team of thla year waa regarded
as Just as atronf as that of 1911. And.
If yov'll recollect, it waa tha Indian e
afT-eg-atle-a that beat Dartmouth last No
vember, Just when Dartmouth waa about
to dispute Harvard's claim as eastern
champion. '
Tha L'ntvenstty of Pittsburgh la another
exsjnpl af what the "small" colleges
liava been doing" la recant years. Tha
J'lttsburgh arreatloa la IU opening
ffama beat Cornell I to L And Cornell
visa firured as having one of the best
elevens la many years. Last year Fit ta
bu rrh beat Carllsla and Cornell la easy
fashion.
Rarely thea three colleges, together
with renn Bute, have a right to ask for
better ranking than they have been given
in other year. Their showings during tha
last few years have bees on a par with
oma of tha big colleges. Tha only rea
son they haven't been rated higher la
because they haven't scheduled tha big
elevens to any great extent
Probably, as they aay In breakfast food
circles: "There's a reason." There Isn't
much glory for Yale, Harvard or Prince
ton to beat any of tho tour "smaller"
rollegea. But to ba beaten by them would
be looked upon as Inglorious.
Friar! M"e" WMk.
Unless Princeton shows real form In
f ha next week or so. It looks as If both
Tala and Harvard will hava an easy
time beating tha Tiger. Princeton showed
poorly against Rutger . and avea wore
against Bucknell. Tha line seema to hold
fairly well, but tha backfleld lacks th
roash and power at the Tiger back
fields of old.
Tha Princeton coaches are working with
rnlght and main to strengthen tha Tiger
backfleld. but It has little materiel to
work with, and it looka very much as if
the Princeton team of 114 will go down
In history as one of tha poorest that vat
wore tha black and yellow.
Chicago In tha west Is making another
strong bid for th championship. It's
clean-cut victory over tha Indian aggra
vation was something of a surprise even
to tha most anthustsatlo supporters of
tHagg's warriors. Indiana has a strong
loam surely stronger than that of 191.
Yet last year tha best Chicago oould do
against Indiana was a H to 7 victory.
Dartmouth seems to be bark with an
other great eleven. It ran up twenty,
nine points against tha strong Massa
chusetts Aggie eleven, following this
with a 74 to 0 score against Norwich.
I.ast year th beat It could do against
1ha Aggies waa thirteen points. The
Dartmouth backfleld Is ena of th heav
iest that ever fought for th Hanover
College, whll th line Is working In fine
style.
Freddie Welsh Is
StiU Without Match
'NEW TORK. Oct S7.-"Wlth th box
ing aaaaon about to open In fuh swing.
Champion Freddie Welsh Is stlil with
out a match. Just at present there are
erJy two men whom the prometera In
tha twenty-round oenters car to pit
against, tha champion. One Is WUlle
Jtttehte and the other Charley White.
ha far Welsh has had nothing to say
regarding White, and th stand ha takes
In regard to Ritchie puts that match out
of tha question.
Ritchie, himself, la far from modest
In lis demand for another crack at his
- conqueror. Ritchie thinks he should be
IskI tiu.ws for md, iu, la or draw,
and set tha weight at 13a pound. Welsh
want tC63 to alga article and names
la aa th poundage. No wonder the pro
moters are not straining themselves to
Sign their pair.
Welsh won his title at an unfortunate
time to be a big money-maker. l.efore
lie won tha championship ha had already
' teten all tti topnotch Hgtit weights and
wept th field clear. No promoter can
afford to pay him anything like the sum
11, t Ritchie received because tha cir
cumstance are altogether different
I . Ik Me jumped Into fame over night,
and being practically unknown found
I irnty of work ahead of him. His bouts
Vila Rivers, Cross. Wolgaat and Mjir
r.by all promised well and there waa no
great risk In offering him big guaran
ttes. But aH these men are played out
aa attractions now, Welsh made Rivera
and Cross look fool'ah and Wolgast and
Murphy hava passed the useful slag.
Welsh's only hope Is that a new crop
(if contenders will spring up. However,
l-y that tittv he will probably be ready
tor th scrap heap himself.

IHBW TORJC, Oct. lT.-Wlltte Ritchie la
strangely silent for a pugilist with
ehamptonahlp aaplratlona. Tha whilom
lightweight peer has not emitted a verbal
blast ever einoe ha landed on these shores
several months ago, minus his title, but
enrtohod by many thousand
Thla ominous silence prompts an inves
tigation Into th affairs of WUlle Ritchie.
for it Is not In keeping with ring tradl
tlon for a contender to any ehamptonahlp
not to lasu volumes of speech and liter
ature during th course of a few month.
Meanwhile r reddle Welsh, tha new
ligntwelght boss. Is issuing afl sorts of
ultimatums to Ritchie: and still Willi
does not counter with words. Th only
solution to th mystery Is that While
Rftchl has outgrown th lightweight
division.
If RJtahie were tirj within rang of
th lightweight limit of 138 pounds, or
even eloa to th 1.-pound mark. It is
aa assured fact that ha would not let
the many challenges hurled at htm go un
answered. That Xtltchw la far too heavy
for th lightweights la divulged la a letter
from th coast to th writer.
TrrlataT Hedse.
Th screed goes on to state that Willie
Is making a determined effort to pare off
several superfluous pounds, and If suc
cessful ha will resum activities In the
ling with tha lightweights. If unsuccessful
in shedding a couple of pounds by
means of strenuous calisthenics, Ritchie
Intends to make aa announcement that he
will fight only in th welterweight divi
sion hereafter.
So that satisfactorily explains Ritchie's
prolonged silence. Ritchie has always
been honest with th publln In his ring
dealings, and It Is with a view of not
deceiving his adherents that he refrains
from an announcement until he has def
initely decided aa to which division he
belong.
For years Packey McJPaxland inveigled
th gullible publlo into th belief that ha
was a legitimate lightweight and he waa
fighting lightweights when he himself
weighed close to lift pounds. That was
why Packey never would ascent to weigh
In for any bout
But Ritchie is of a different Ilk. H has
no desire to cheat the supporters of th
gam. His motto has always been to
give th publlo a run for Its money. And
he lived up to this motto.
Th advent of Rltohl Into the welter
weight division would start . new ra
among tha 142-ponnders. There la no right
ful owner of th welterweight title; and
there hasn't been for a number of years.
For a tlm Mike Gibbon waa generally
acknowledged tha champion, but he speed
ily graduated Into th middleweight divi
sion. row Wlthla the Unit ,
There ar quit a few boxers masquor
adlng aa lightweights, although ther hava
not been abl to s'ght in pounds as long
as they ean remember. - Among the ar
Jack Brltton and Harry Stone. Both are
legitimate welterweights, yet they per
sist tn taking on lightweights. Should
Rltchl enter th waiter fold he would
find plenty of opposition. It is not Wil
lie's Intention to claim th title right
off tha reel. He desires to b acclaimed
th undisputed champion after a series of
elimination bouts. W shall hear from
Mr. William Ritchie In a short while, and
then it will b up to th promoters to
help dear tha welterweight muddle.
Adolph Wolgast tha original hard luck
champ'oa, insists that ha is far from be
ing through with th ring. Wolgaat is
fairly bristling with fight talk, and de
clares that he has many good fights in
his person.
Th "Michigan Wildcat" is on of those
ring oddities a real fighter, of th Bat
tling Nelson type, who never cease fight
ing from tha first clang of tha gong until
the end of the bout Wolgast's latest bit
of misfortune occurred whll preparing
for his proposed fight wVh Jose Rivers.
Wolgast had the plaster east out away
from hla right hand tha other day, and
Is now ready for the-aotlv winter cam
paign. Whit Owa fee Bowklaaw.
Charley White admits that his streak
of bomee'ekneoe haa worn off and ha is
open for ring bookings. White and his
manager ar casting covetous glances
eastward from Chicago, for New York
promises to be th boxing haven during
the frigid months.
Whit and Leach Cross have been
friends ever sine boyhood, and each haa
repeatedly declared that he would not
fight hla friend even if the championship
were at stake.
But th lure of gold apparently Is
stronger than - tha strongest bond of
friendship, for Whit now ears that hs
will fight Cross in order to prove his
right to a meeting with Champion Fred
die Welsh, dross coincides with White In
the views, and for a suitable purs
then two of America's leading light
weights wtU forget their friendship for
halt aa hour to settle the mooted question
of whlvh Is better enUtled to tackle
Welsh.

Although Tale entered th season with
few veterans, and a rather discouraging
outlook. Coach Hlnkey Is doing wonders
In developing his men. He has searched
high and low. To show the extent of his
efforts; on haa only to not the fact that
Hlnkey haa had as high aa six elevens
working on Tale field at one time.
These sixty-six men actually getting
Into the game made a notable picture,
but they did not represent th limit of
Tale's foot ball resources.
In past years three elevens has been
the average number at Tale, with the
other men filling In as substitutes or
having individual practice.
Thla Innovation of having a large num
ber of eleven Is expected to result ulti
mately In a very strong, line for th
'varsity. The line has been weaker than
tha backfleld so far.

This is tha second meeting or the' two

on tha Methodists' field Craighton lost
by one touchdown.
Thla wUl be th last chine In three
weeks that Omaha fans will have to see
th Creighton team in action. Th fol
lowing two Saturdays the Blue and White
warriors will make the only two trips of
th year, one to St Paul aad on to Mil

game will be on Creighton field, Novem

Creighton la . particularly anxious to
down the Methodists this rail, because of
last year's defeat All dope on the out
come points to a hard struggle. Both
teams defeated Bellvu by exactly the
same score 47-0.
Creighton has a good backfleld and
Wesleyan la reported to hava a whirlwind
In Johnson, right half. Both teams use
th forward pass and open play to a great
extent
The hospital list of th Creighton squad
will be reduced to a minimum by next
Saturday. Earhart wilt b In good shape,
as will Brennan and Festner. Shannon
and tapleton, who reported laU for
praotlc, will be down to weight, and Cot

Tb addition of th veterans to the
squad has done much toward raising
hopes of a victory over Marquette In
this game the loss of, Coffey, Burford,
Conrad. Wise. BreeUske, Earhar. Carrig,
Steffan and Plats, by the freshman rule,
will be a sever blow, but such men as
Ktapleton, Shannon, Warren. Tamlsea,
Showaller, Brennan, Flood, MoGuire and
Caaey will b available.
Th permanent loss of Coady from foot
ball la a blow to th hilltoppers, as he la
only a second-year medic and could be
counted oa for two more years of star
playing.

Th Mseera Caaey.
"We've heard of mighty Caaey who busted
up each game,
They played In dear old Mud villa and
gained much national fame;
We've heard of how he soaked th pill
each time he cam to bat
And how he always cleared th wall and
let It go at that
Of course he was a hero, such hitters al
ways are.
But Casey made hla one mlstaka and
that one dimmed his star,
He whiffed three times within a pinch,
the game went to the foe.
And Casey lost his honors dear aad he
was full of woe. .
Now likened unto Casey, there la an ath
lete now.
He was a horn hitter and he wiped his
noble brow,
He etepped up to th batter's bos with
fight within each eye;
The pitcher pitching to him with salty
tears did cry.
The hitter smashed his heavy bat upon
the rubber plate.
Then spal upon his grimy hands and
glared out tn hla hate.
Th crowd atood up upon their foot, pre-
pared to hike for home.
For the hitter waa-a aure one and any
curve could comb.
But liken unto Casey you remember he
struck out
Th mighty Casey missed the pill and
failed to make the clout;
And while the fana stood up and thought
the game surely through.
This hitter, Just like Casey, didn't do
what he should do.
He let the first one aall right by, the aeo-
ond one, too;
The third one everybody thought he'd
knock a mile or two;
But liken unto Casey, oh, let it go at
that
Tou remember J. Frank Baker when he
went up to bat

Madera Tale f Tw Cities.
The tale of two cities Is sad indeed, -when
you read It in literature!
The horrors of French revolution lnyour
mind you easily picture;
But thst tale so sacred for many years
Is cast by th waysld now.
And the tale of 8t Louis and Boaton
brings a creaa to the noble brow.
St. Louis and Boston, two of our towns,
are the citlee thla tale la spunT
From one to the other W tinted and
Cat her with violence were flung;
They landed in oultured Boston, then at
th ead of the heap.
Slaves of a base ball magnate, bartered,
and bartered cheap.
But the turn In the road happened quite
soon Boston fiew up to the top
And St. Louis, unfortunate city, slipped
with a terrifle flop;
And Whltted and Cather were lucky, and
Played In the world's "serious."
Copped off three thousand dollars for
their litt'.e part In tha fuas.
So the ta! of two cities Is sad Indeed.
