2 OTHER CLUBS UNBEATEN BUT HAVE NO CLAIM Grand Forks’ Record Is Blem- ished by a Tie Game With Midgets § TEAMS DEFEATED La Moure, Having Clear Slate, Has Not Played Enough Strong Teams As the curtain draws down on the 1928 North Dakota high school foot- ball race, a glance at the season’s records of the 10 outstanding teams in the state reveals that onl Bis- marck and Williston, both of whom are claiming the unofficial cham- pionship, can boast of undefeated and untied honors. Grand Forks is also included in the undefeated class but a scoreless tie with Fargo spoils their record. Devils Lake, Fargo, Grafton, Jam town, Mandan, Minot and Valley City have all’ been conquered by teams in the state. Although La Moure is also includ- ed in the undefeatqd class, it is making no claim to the state title as it has not met enough strong teams to merit serious considera- tion. wood, Wolf Point, and Miles City, Mont., and Mohall and Minot, piled up 274 points to its opponents’ Bismarck, in whipping Mandan Fargo, Minot, Mo- bridge, S.

The Jamestown Bluejays played a tie game with their alumni,, beat the James- town College freshmen and Mandan, tied Oakes, and then lost to Bismarck and Aberdeen, S. Dak. Mandan lost its two games with Bismarck and one to Jamestown, but scored comfortable wins over Wash- nara, Dickinson, Linton, and Mi- jot. .__, Minot Is Weaker Minot, which has been one of the strongest teams in the state the last few years, lost to Bismarck, Willis- pivasnd, Mandan. The Magicians scored wins over Mohall, Devils Lake and Bowbells. _ Valley City played through a fickle season, downing Enderlin, Oakes, Jamestown, and Lisbon and losing to Moorhead, Devils Lake, Bismarck, and Fargo. The Hiliners weakened and showed strength at times when it was most unexpected. Outstanding games of the season follow: Grand Forks 13, Grafton 7; Bismarck 7, Fargo 0; Bismarck 13, Valley City 6; Bismarck 19, Mandan 4%; Williston 20, Minot 13; Fargo 7, Valley City 0; Jamestown 18, Man- dan 12; Mandan 26, Minot 0; Valley City 13, Jamestown’ 6; and Devils Lake 6, Valley City 0. Alabama, Tennessee Set Scoring Record Birmingham, Ala., Nov. 14.—The fastest scoring in a football game that Everett Strupper, former Geor- gia Tech halfback and now noted southern football official, ever wit- nessed was in the recent Alabama- Tennessee game. “In exactly one minute and fifteen seconds after the game started, both teams had made a touchdown,” he says. * Alabama kicked off to Tennessee and the kick-off was carried back for wtouchdown. Tennessee then kicked off to Alabama and after one or two plays at the line an Alabama back zrashed through the entire Tennessee team for approximately half the dis- tance of the field and scored a touchdown. scoring by both teams I’ve ever wit- ne: in a game and much too fast for me.” 5 Uncle and Nephew to Play on Tech Eleven Atlanta, Ga., Nov, 14.—An uncle and his next fall. } nd the nephew is three older then the ncle ond it ent 4 of the two in varsity Barron, the third of the fam-|the Alabama victory over Sewanee. ‘be more any That is the fastest perbey ill lay on _the| Pros] same footba!

The reasons advanced for honoring the men are that for the first time in conference history the University team went through a season unde- feated, and for the first time the Flickertails captured the loop pen- nant. No definite date has been set as yet for the presentation of the em- blems. Trojans Have Two Coach Bob Neyland Has 23 Corking Good Kickoff Play | Up His Sleeve; Score Touch- | downs on Kickoff in Two} Successive Games; Isn't | Lucky Knoxville, Tenn., Nov. 14.—(AP) | is taking a long chance. Two Southern Conference foes did it on successive Saturdays and paid the penalty of watching Coach Bob Neyland’s backs return for a touch- down in the opening minute of play. Many thought it was a lucky break when the flashy sophomore halfback, Eugene McEver, received the kick from Alabama at Tusca- loosa and raced 98 yards for Ten- nessee’s first touchdown. Only a few intimates of the veteran army coach who has held forth three years at “The Hill” knew it was real foot- ball strategy. Repeated Following Saturday When Tennessee victimized Wash- ington and Lee by the identical play at Knoxville the following week, one | of the most startling thrusts the! south has seen was brought into the; open.

Washington urday, November 17, while Idaho will meet the Trojans November 24. Victories over these two conference teams would give the Trojans a tie for the championship with Cali- fornia, and a clear claim to the title if California should be beaten by Stanford November 24.

BIG TEN TEAMS THROW PASSES Chicago, Nov. 14.—(@)—The west- ern conference gridiron atmosphere is apt to be strewn with flying foot- balls Saturday, but forward passes should do much to clarify the final 1928 standings. Doubtless Wisconsin, deadlocked with Iowa for the Big Ten leader- ship, will look to the air for victory over Iowa at Iowa City. The Iowans are not averse to passing if their running attack fails. With an aerial game that has men- aced every team met this year, Northwestern is expected to flip passes with the same degree of ac- curacy when the Wildcats meet In- diana at Bloomington. Given only an outside chance of defeating Illinois, the Chicago Ma- roons are going about the task of building a passing game that will baffle the Illini defense. Illinois has shown itself notice- ably weak against passes all season. Four of the Big Ten teams—Ohio State, Purdue, Michigan, and Min- nesota—will entertain nonconference opponents.

It is a tastefully furnished apart- ment in Down street, somewhat larger than one would expect for one couple, but in keeping, ac- cording to caretakers, with Mr. and Mrs. Tunney’s plans to do a lot of entertaining. One of their first vis- itors is expected to be George Bern- ard Shaw. They have taken the apartment Although Gene has chosen one of the most exclusive sections of London in which to live, he will have at least one neighbor to remind him of the old boxing days before he quit the ring. Wells Is Neighbor This neighbor is Bombardier Wells, the “gentleman boxer” and darling of the English prize fight ring. For Bombardier, who is also in retirement, now operates a hotel and “pub” within half a block of Tunney’s apartment. Bombardier was as surprised to hear that Tunney was to be his neighbor as Gene probably will be to learn that Bombardier lives near- “So he is really coming, is he? Well, he was one of the best. He was as good as Corbett, good as any other champion we ever had.” Bombardier said. “No, I haven’t met him yet. I'd like to meet Gene and welcome him. He did a good bei 4 quitting when he did. He’s made hi: Down street, where Tunney’s apartment is situated, is only two blocks long, but it is in the very| N heart of Mayfair and all that May- fair implies in the way of society. Hyde Park is at one end of the street; Bombardier’s “pub” is at the other. But then nearly e ner in London has a “pub”; there’s even one in Buckingham palace.

Although Washington State has lost one game this year, the Cougars. have seven Conference contest on their schedule, and if they should! win their remaining games, those with Southern California and Washe, ington, while S. C. and California are losing one each, they would end the conference season with the high- est percentage. The Cougars, with such stars as Porter Lainhart and Ted Rohwer in their backfield and one of the heavi- est and hardest charging lines in the conference, have been growing more impressive as the season has progressed. Their only defeat, in which they lost early in the season to California at Berkeley by a 13 to re|3 score, was a hard-fought battle in is| which five blocked Cougar punts played a big part. They have de- feated Oregon State, Idaho, Mon- tana, Whitman and other good teams of the northwest and are coming south with the determination to give the Trojans their hardest fight of the year. Coach Howard Jones worked his varsity easily last week, but the gates will be locked from now until the battle Saturday and he will give his men plenty of hard work on new plays and on defense for the Cougar attack. Jones is hoping to have his. men in better physical condition and in the same fighting mental state that he had them on the day of the Cardinal contest.

Men are cigar smokers for the taste and enjoyment there is in, the a ipieana for the gratifica- tion of a nervous habit. One cigar is not lighted from the end of an- other. The day’s end does not find cigar smokers high-strung, in an exhausted mental condi- tion. They smoke slowly, leisure- ly, getting from each puff a full measure of pleasure—without penalty to nerves or throat. Perhaps the basic reason for the great prevalence of throat ‘ troubles is the irritating action » of hot burning smoke on the very sensitive membranes of the mouth and throat. A prominent New York throat specialist is authority for the statement that: - “Cigar smoke is cool, because the tobacco burns slowly and the smoke is filtered and cooled as it is drawo through thecigaritself.” Make this test for a week—smoke cigars exclusively and you will find yourself feeling better, with no cough or throat irritation, improved nerves, increased vi- tality and less of that tired feel- ing.
