Five of the world’s best angle play- ers already have succumbed to Rei- selt’s play. Today the Philadelphian found Gus Copulos, Detroit, barring his way to sixth consecutive vic- tory.

Clint Benedict, Maroon goalie, was struck in the face by the puck, suf- fering a broken nose and a bad cut, and the game had to be held up while Flat Walsh could be called from his bed, where he was trying to recover from a cold. Twenty-seven penalties were called against the two teams. ‘The New York Rangers took their third defeat of the year from the Boston Bruins, 3 to 0.

ASKS SHY ONE St. Paul Pitcher Was Through, Fought Hard and Then Went Out Completely [RIGHT HOOKS TOO HARD Pugilistic First Baseman Makes Sure Vicitim Is Not Dan Before Departing St. Paul, Minn., Jan. 8—(®)}—It took C. Arthur (The Great) Shires, two {minutes to convince a pitcher to go back to baseballing for a living. It all happened in the first round of a scheduled six round bout last night when a couple of right hooks sent Tony Faeth falt on his back for the well known count of 10, The aspirations of the pitcher to strike out the “great one” ended right there. Tony was a model of thoroughness. He fought hard while he fought and went out completely when he went out. The pugilistic first baseman of Chi- }cago made one thing clear before he left the ring. There was no doubt in his mind that his victim was not Dangerous Dan Daly. “Does anybody here recognize this guy as Dangerous ;Dan?” He asked the multitude of fans. A silence, and he called it a day. By the terms of the contract which { stipulated $300 for signing and $200 a | round for the duration of the fight, |Faeth received $500, “which,” he said, “ds not bad for two-minutes and 10 head of work and a little head- ache.” ARTIE SEES THROUGH ROSE-COLORED SPECS , Chicago, Jan. 8.—(?)—The one and only Charles Arthur “The Great” Shires found the world full of sun- shine today. The fightin’ White Sox first base- man boasted s .750 percentage and his third one-round victory since in- vading the cauliflower industry; he was $2,500 or more closer to the nest egg of $250,000, and the dark clouds of suspicion, which threatened his banishment from the ring and or- ganized baseball, gave promise of blowing away. His third successful ring venture in four starts was chalked up at St. Paul, Minn. last night when his Americans and Toronto's | furious, longshoreman rights flattened Tony Faeth, St. Paul pitcher, in the first round. It was a decisive victory {Spectators were satisfied to a man there was no semblance of a “dive” j in that ring battle. Meanwhile, the Illinois and Michi- ‘gan state athletic commissions were expected to clear the Great Arthur from charges of “fixing” his bout with “Dangerous Dan” Daly of Cleve- |land here last December and of at- tempting to “fix” his postponed match with Battling Criss at Detroit. The Illinois commission took testi- mony yesterday from Promoter,James Mullen, who arranged the Shires- Daly match, and Eddie Meade, man- ager of the “dangerous one” and indi- cated it would give Shires a clean bill of health.

Their predecessors have won the Southwest conference championship for the past four years. Arkansas teams won 21 consecu- | tive victories in conference competi. | tion—12 straight in 1928 and nine last year. : The 1929 team made the highest Seore ever recorded in a conference game—71 points against Baylor. Wear Schoonover, this year's cap- tain, set an individual scoring record for the conference when he amassed 26 points in that game. Last year’s team piled up 566 Points in 12 conference games, against 291 for opponents. | To keep the fans even half-way satisfied, the 1930 Razorbacks know they must set some new records as | well as land that fifth straight title. |Battler Given Win Over Lee Cavanagh Dickinson, N.

In the meantime, Miss Glenna Col- lett and several of the leading Ameri- can players will compete in the British ‘women's champiorship. In July, at the Interlachen club, the United States open championship will be held over a course always in fine condition. The field is so fast in this event tha, it is almost certainty that there will be a tie, with the resulting playoff. We expect more than 1,200 entries for the qualifying rounds in this championship. The amateurs get together at Phii- adelphia in September when the ; amateur cham Ip will be played at Merion Cricket club, where this test was last played in 1924. | In October, California will see its , Second national championship within | two years when the United States women’s title will be decided at the Los Angeles country club. Shortly Diegel will have a chance to defend his title in the P. G. A. championship, and if he is success- ful in winning again, he will be well on the way towards the record es- tablished by Walter Hagen in this competition. So far as personalities go most of the interest will be directed, in my judgment, to two men. The first is Bobby Jones, who will compete this year in four nationa! championships. / Secondly, Horton Smith starts off { again with a remarkable string of vic- tories in the winter playing season. | I think, though, that when the cur- tain goes down on 1930, that the out- | standing performances will have been | by Jones and Smith. ‘Drake Takes To | Night Football | Des Moines, Iowa, Jan. 8—(>)— “Owl football” has passed the experi- mental stage at Drake university, and five of the eight games on the 1930 schedule will be played at night. Ed C. Lytton, business manager of the university, and Coach Ossie Solem have announced. Chicago fans will see their first major college game at night in Sol- dier Field October 3, when the Bull- dogs meet Oregon university. The following Friday night, Drake clashes with Marquette at Milwaukee under the powerful arcs. Local followers will see Drake in action in the daytime in only one game, the Iowa State contest. Grin- nell and Washington university of | St. Louis are both scheduled for aft- er-dark contests in the Drake stad- lum. The fifth night game, with Creigh- ton at Omaha, is contingent on weather conditions, as night games in extreme cold are considered less suc- cessful. Although not the originator of night games, Drake set a new by playing four such contests in 1939, after a tryout in a single game in the 1928 season. Powerful lights, set 50 feet above the playing field at Drake stadium, flood every point of the gridiron with intersecting beams; eliminating all shadows and illumin- ating the sky beyond the range of the highest punters, according to Mr. Lytton, “Although opposing teams were dubious at first,” Mr. Lytton says, “a trial convinced them of night- football possibilities and it is here to- stay. Attendance was i from 100 per cent to 400 per cent at com- parable games.” FIRST TO THRILL FANS It_ happens occasionally now but »| R. W. Watson of Yale was the first football player to return a kickoff 100 yards, He accomplished the feat against Harvard in 1881.
