Hits i Referee
In 7th Round
Chicago Heavyweight Has
Best of Bou,t From Start
"Kid" Schlaifer Wins I
Over Rounder Johnson.
By RALPH WAGNER.
Andy Schmader, Louisville, Neb.,
heavyweight boxer, was disqualified
in the seventh round of a scheduled
10-frame mill with Tony Melchoir of
Chicago at the City auditorium last
night for striking Referee George
Duffy of Milwaukee. Duffy had
warned the Nebraska heavy for but
ting with his head and shoulders in
the previous round.
Melchoir . was substituted far
"Gunboat" Smith, Philadelphia
Scrapper, who was unable to appear.
The Chicago heavyweight mauler
hid the best of the encounter from,
the time it started until Referee
Duffy stopped the bout. Melchoir
was unable to put over the finish
blow, but he handed his opponent a
thorough beating m the six and one
half stanzas, and the announcement
that the fight had been stopped must
have been sweet music in Schmader's
cars.
Whether the Louisville lad inten
tionally or accidentally hit Referee
' Duffy is not known, but the least
Schmader could do would have been
to claim the blow was accidental
and ask for the bout to be continued.
But instead of speaking with the ref
eree, the Nebraskan walked to his
corner.
1 Melchoir More Aggressive.
'In the opening round both men
fdught cautiously for a few seconds,
then Melchoir started to assume the
aggressive and threw over. a bar
rage of rights and lefts to
Schmader's face that had the Louis
ville boy guessing.
( Melchoir shot over a couple of
; rights and lefts to his opponent's
jaw in the second stanza and had
Schmader wobbly at the knees. Fre
quently the Cornhuskpr sought ref
uge in clinches after' being rushed
ruthlessly to the ropes before his riv
al's mad 'assault. Near the bell in
the second round, Melchoir shook
Schmader with a right to the jaw,
which had the prowd yelling' wildly
for a knockout.
Starting with the third session, the
milling showed Melchoir clearly to
advantage. The Chicago boxer, with
utter disdain for Schmader's punches,
bored in continually and had the
Louisville scrapper hanging' on in
the clinches. Schmader succeeded in
landing some good stiff blows to the
Windy City boxer's face, one of
the wallops cutting Melchoir over
the eye.
Lands Blow on Jaw.
Melchoir opened the fourth round,
by landing a stiff .wallop on Schma
der's jaw. The Nebraskan wobbled
in his tracks and then fell into a
clinch. Referee George Duffy suc
ceeded in parting the battlers, and
as quick as a flash the Chicagoan
sent over another right, which land
ed smack on Schmader's beak." .In a
flurry near the bell Melchoir crossed
several rights and lefts to his op
ponent's jaw, which must have made
Schmader think he was in a rocking
chair.
' Schmader was,, game from the
start and clearly demonstrated that
he was a glutton for , punishment.
The Louisville boxer tried hard ,to
connect with Melchotr's jaw, and
(H several occasions was successful.
, In the fifth round, after a slashing
session, Melchoir whipped over a
right under the iieart and followed
like a flash with the same fist to the
jaw. Schmader shook on his pins
and fell into a clinch. Coming out
of the clinch, the Nebraskan was
warned by the referee for butting
with his head. ,
Fought Best in Sixth.
Schmader fought his best round in
the sixth, but was unable to weaken
the Chicagoan. The Louisville boy
planted stiff jolt on his opponent's
jaw and followed with another wal
lop over the eye. which caused the
blood to flow from the cut over
Melchoir's glimmer.
Melchoir started "the seventh
round by landing on Schmader's
jaw. The Nebraskan fell into an
other clinch, and when the referee
parted the scrappers Schmader shot
over a right to Duffy's ear and the
bout was stopped.
The Nebraska boxer was abso
lutely outclassed, and only his ex
perience and ring craft, coupled
with his gameness, enabled him to
weather the six and one-half rounds.
"Kid" Schlaifer, Omaha, knocked
out Rounder Johnson of Cincinnati
in the second round of their sched
uled eight-frame mill.
Bout End in Draw.
Harry Reed of Lincoln and "Bat
tling'.' Garrison of Omaha fought
a six-round draw in the second pre
liminary event, and "Turk" Logan
won over Carl Emmett in the initial
bout on he program.
George Lamson, Walthill Indian,
who was operated on Sunday, and
unable to meet Schmader-as sched
uled last night, was at the ringside
and challenged Schmader or Mel
choir. SSS2SS25S53

Coach Schulte :
Drilling Team
For Notrq Dame
I Cornhuskera Practicing Be
hind Closed Doors for Came
At Lincoln Saturdays
Afternoon. '
Lincoln", Neb., Oct. 14. (Special.)
Coach Schufte took his Cornhusker
athletes into secret practice last
niht and will keep them there all
week in an effort to get his aggre
gation in shape to battle the Notre
Dame Catholics next Saturday.
Just what is taking place behind
the closed doors Is not known here
and will be kept absolutely a secret
untu next Saturday s game. Loach
Schissler, who scouted the Notre
Dame-Western normal game last
Saturday, reports that the Catholic
eleven this year is the fastest that
ever represented the Indiana school.
Not Forced To Open "Up."'
It is a cinch that neither team will
havt much dope on the other unless
someone steals some information.
The Catholics were not forced to
open up with anythine last Saturday.
but resorted merely to straight foot
oaii. for that reason, bchissler has
come back with a good idea of the
strength of the team, but little idea'
of Notre Dame's clavs. , I
The same condition is true in re
gard to Nebraska. Halas, a former
Illinois star, scouted the. Nebraska
Colorado game for Notre .Dame
Only once or twice were the Corn
huskers forced to show what they
had and as a consequence the Catho
lic scout is taking back little informa
tion to his school. Halas seemed
confident .that Notre Dame would
have little tcouble downing the Corn
huskers. . '
Several factors are. entering into
speculations on theoutcome of the
game. Coach SchuTte announced at
the opening of the present season
that he, of course,, wanted to beat
Washburn and Colorado, but that he
also had to look ahead at the harder
games on the schedule. ' For this
reason, it is logical to believe that he
has been holding back at least part
ot his strength. ,
Catholics' Line Strong.
Coach Rockne has three complete
backfields to play. The only strong
backfield man that will be missing
this year is Bergman, who ran 90
yards for a touchdown on a trick
play on the kickoff that lost the game
for the Cornhuskers last year. Gipp,
who was declared ineligible at the
beginning of the. season, will be in
the game again this Saturday.. The
Notre Dame halfback has had near
ly four years' experience with the
Catholic team and should be a back
field star. i
. Nebraska and Notre Dame have
met h foot ball gimes here for the
past live years. Two of the games
have gone to Nebraska, two to Notre
Dame and one was a 0-0 tie. For
that reason each coach is strong for
winning this year. Betting Odds in
Lincoln and elsewhere seem to be
favoring the Catholics. ; . i

On Searles Will
Nephew of Aged Recluse De
, clares Uncle Not of
Sound Mind.
Salem, Mass., Oct 14. The legal
battle for the millions Of Edward F.
Searles, the recluse' millionaire of
Methuen and New York, who died
recently, was opened in the probate
court here. It was indicated the at
tempt by ""Victor Albert Searles, a
Boston artist, who" was a nephew
of the testator, would be based on
a contention that the aged million
aire was not fit physically or men
tally at itne time the will was drawn
ttf understand or make such an intri
cate instrument as that offered for
probate.
By this will, Arthur T. Walker of
Nev York, a clerk, was tnade resid
uary legatee of the estate, which is
estimated at between $30,000,000 and
$50,000,000, and the nephew was left

already forfeited this legacy, as it
was stipulated in the will that should
he contest the instrument the legacy
would go to the University of Cali
fornia.'
Sherman Whipple of Boston,
counsel for the nephew, told the
court that the wilt was a part of a
cunningly designed plan. He said
intimate friends were excluded from
the Searles home within two days
of the makintr of this instrument
on the ground that he was too ill to
see anybody. .

Just because your Rheuma-

discomfort you feel that the
proper way to treat the dis
ease is to endeavor to get rid
of its pains. So you rush for
the liniment bottle and begin
to rub and rub in a frantic ef
fort to relieve your suffering.
And at times, possibly, you
get some slight relief.
But did ydu ever Inow of

causing a heavy depressed feeling
that made me very uncomfortable.

tired and wornout, and seemed to
have no energy at all. My back
itched and pained me dreadfully, and
I was so nervous and restless that
at night I could scarcely sleep. I
becam: so weak and rundown I '
wasn't even able to do my house
work, and nothing I took seemed to
help me any. ,

Tanlac one day, and 1 was so
pleased with it that I just kept oni
taking it until three bottles has built
me up 'and put an end to all my
troubles. My appetite is just splen
did now, and I eat anything I want
without it causing me a particle of
trouble. The dizziness has entirely
disappeared, and I never have a sign ,
of a pain in my back.-
