Pasadena, Cal, Dec. 29. Ohio
State, western conference foot ball
champion, which will meet Cali

Year's day in oris of the most im
portant intersectional struggles -of
the year, should rule favorite when
the teams take the field.. f"
This statement is made ,after the
writer has seen the Pacificj coast
champion practice for three days.
While the caliber of foot ball played
by the Buckeyes is well, known to
followers of the game in themiddle
west, California cannot be said to be
as highly developed an eleven as
Ohio, and it has the complex forma
tions. . . '
The Calif ornians have not been
put to the acid test as have the Buck
eyes. Coach Smith's men went
through their games in an, easy fash
ion, until the closing minutes of
play. Formations used by the Gold
en state eleven ' will not . gain as they
did. against elevens of this section;
" Ths chief (round latnlnr weaoon of the
Caltfornlans la their oftrtaclcle drives or
buck. They have, won most of -,thelr
gamen by this formation, which cannot
be expected to rain against a team of
Ohlo'a caliber. Captain- Huffman and
Spiers, Buckeye tackles, met this sort of
attack successfully vhen Michigan was
defeated 14 to 7. It Is certain that the
California backs do not possess the power
of the Wolverines ball carriers who did
not make an Impression on the Buckeye
line when distance was needed for first
downs. -
From tackle to tackle, the Ohio -line
should outplay tile California forwards.
Xumecek at center and J. Taylor and
Trottrf-at guards, are a formidable center
trio, while Captain Huffman and Spiers
aro tackles of the reliable type. While
California, has a strong forward wall, the
only player who matches with any of the
Buckeye linesmen is McMillan, tackle, who
was cljosen for the all-Paclflo conference
eleven and Majors, the guard. '

Bantamweiglit Division of Punch

Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee leased Wire.
New, York, Dec. 29. In looking
over the bantamweight, division the
impression is most pronounced that
that section of the boxing game in
cludes about the toughest set ever
gathered under one pugilistic roof.
Take them right alonp- from the
Champion Joe Lynch, clear through
tne line and you cannot find a soft
spot in the whole crew. Right now
the bantam class is represented by
the best in boxing. The feather
weight gang are all at sea because of
the uncertainty of Johnny Kilbane;
Benny Leonard is the leader of the
lightweights and he practically
stands alone; the middleweights
have no leader and the heavies are
confined to Dempsey. v;
Just take a glance at the boys who
are struggling in the bantam class
and it is easy to realize that the
boy who aspires to lead such a rough
mob is bound lo meet many, ob

When picking out the best 20 slug

old free lunch days and had a kick
in either shoe.' After winnine the
championship; of; all the Keeley in-,
stitutes he settled down to a lite ot
peace and quiet in lioughtown, Ariz.1
In his early days in Pueblo Gink
used to use a grizzly bear for a sad
dle hoss and a rattlesnake for reins.
Roughtown is named after Gink's
grandpop, who had a sweet tooth
and two others. He used to like wild
honey, and so did the grizzlies. The
old man used to let the grizzlies take
the wild honey away from the wild
bees. Then he'd go out and take it
away from the wild grizzlies. They
were men in those days. Gink never
tired of telling, about the time his
grandpop first saw a Gila monster. It
was love at first sight.

Lift Johnny Coulon '
; ; Car pentier8 Task
Paris, Dec.', 29A-Georges Carpen
tier will try to lift Johnny Coulon,
the Chicago bantamweight, next
week. . ; :
. A fortnight ago, during a' banquet
for sporting men, ..where Carpentier
and Coulon were guests of honor,
Johnny jokingly remarked to Car
pentier: "You can't never lift me."
Carpentier was about to attempt to
lift . the little boxer when Manager
Descamps ordered him not to make
the attempt.
' Descamps stated; that photogroph
ers were present and would take a
flashlight, and if Carpentier failed to
lift Coulon the result would be a loss
of the Frenchman's prestige in the
United States. .
Carpentier now has signified a
willingness to attempt to lift Coulon,-
but photographers will be
barred. 1
countered many a tough spot on his
journey. Jt was always a bad road,
this bantam lane, but right now the
bumps seem harder than ever.
In dropping away from the cham
pion, one is next confronted with
such formidable performers as Pete
Herman, who just relinquished the
crown to Lynch after a stirring bat
tle. Then come along such rough
lads as Jack Sharkey, Pal Moore,
the Memphis cyclone; Joe Burman,
the bruising youngster from Chicago,
and Johnny Buff, the Jersey City
boxer, who changed the course of
"Midget" Smith, in the latter's mad
plunge, following his quick victory
over Phil Franchini, a really clever
boy, who will be heard from later.
Where is there a soft spot in
that collection? Joe Lynch has his
work cut out for him in leading
that brigade and no one should be
grudge him anything he can get
outof it. ' Joe is a game one. how
ever,. and will stay in there meeting
them all until they eventually topple
him over. - - -

the end of the line. They made' the
town the terminal because the in
habitants tore up the tracks for
Xmas jewelry. '
There was only one street in
Roughtown. The street had only one
side. Every house on that side was
a one-story shack except the bank,
which was next door to a wolves'
den. Incidentally, if baby didn't
cry like, a wolf they sent him back
to have him tuned.
Lions in the Vault.
The James Boys rode into town on-;
night and put the finger on the bank.
They laid the soup on the safety dc-
fosit vault and a lot a of mountain
ions jumped out. The inhabitants of
Roughtown had been saving the lions
for Old Home Week. After that the
James boys rode away thinking that
Hades was on the chautauqua cir
cuit. The bandits wouldn't have es
caped if it wasn't for the fact that
the pumas had gotten softening of
the claws from shaking hands with
the belles of Roughtown.
The belle Was Rough Annie. She
was Gink's mother and married
Gink's old man, having fallen in
love with 'him while watching him
eating unopened oysters on' the
whole shell. Gink's uncle ate pine
apples for 60 years and used to
claim that the skin" was the best
part of 'em.
No wonder Gink grew up to be a
fighter. We'll tell you the rest of the
story in chunks as the Galdwin

Jack Dempsey
Foul Ring Battler?
Some Fans Say Heavyweight
Is petting Away With Mur
der by "Rabbit Punch."
Chicago Tribune-Omaha Be Leased Wire.
, Chicago, Dec. 29. Is Jack Decp
sey a foul fighter? Some say the
heavyweight champion is getting
away with murder when it comes to,
the technicalities of the game. !
.These certain "some". contend that!
Jack Dempsey is a great champion,
can hit like "sin" and all that, but
he would be half as effective if re
ferees would bar "the rabbit punch."
There are many who say that if
Dempsey continues to use the rabbit
punch he will wake up to find he has
been disqualified out of the heavy
weight championship of the world.
There is no doubt that the-rabbit
blow is an infraction of the Marquis
Of Queensberry rules. Milburn
Saylor used it with great effect for
a long while. He scored quite a
number of knockouts before tfis op
ponents got wise to his trick. Saylor
was disqualified for using the rabbit
punch in Australia. Over there in
New Zealand fighters are disquali
fied the moment they even attempt
to use it. ,.'
For the benefit of those who don't
know what the rabbit punch is, we
offer the following:
"A sock back of the neck with
the fist and forearm. Dempsey gets
his opponent into position for the
rabbit punch with a left hook to the
body. This doubles up the victim
and then Dempsey steps to the right
and lets go hack of the neck."

THE BLUE LAW BLUES
z Somewhere in the U. S. A., ..vi
There stood a gloomy man ' - ;
Who sang a dismal roundelay,
And this is how it ran:
.
i've got the blues, . '
The blue law blues! ".;'.
I'm bluer than a brewer ,
Every time I read the news
That a man who does, on Sunday,
Anything he likes to do
( Is put into jail on Monday
For a month or maybe two.
If I cut up any capers, ,
Such as going for a walk;
If I read the Sunday papers
Some old bird will make a squawk. " . ..
They've took away my Sunday, like they took away my booze,
And left me with those blue law blues! ' .
He gave a harsh, hollow moan; , '
He breathed a fervent curse;
And in a rather gloomier tone
He sang this second verse :
. " ' . ' 1
I've got the blues, , ,
The blue law blues! ' ''" '
They're keepin' me from sleepin'
, Are these Puritanic Prues. ' .',";.'' '.
The kitten ain't molested
If he mews the seventh day,
v The birds don't get arrested ' " ,
When they sing a Sunday lay,
But me on Sunday morning
If I dared to even grin, ...
Without a word of warning
Some old gink would run me in.
I'm just about as happy as the lions in the zoo
Since I have got those blue law blues! '. ,,.

don't like it don't play with me. ,
