NATRONA HIGH BEATS INDIANS Overwhelming Score Rolled Up in Absence from Lineup of Big Chief”. “The Natrona County High School eagers staged a come-back in form Saturday night when they played the Indian squad from St. Stephens mis- sion off their feet for a 48-to-12 score. With their “big chief” Bruce out of the game, the Indians made a poor showing against the local five. Jump- ing out in the lead, Casper continued to draw away from the visitors. Brilliant playing at times featured the work of the Casper five. Blan- chard took a long chance at the hoop from the mdidle of the floor and the shot went home. Lester, Groves, Alsman and Kocher were in fine form and their performance bordered on the unusual. Quinlan Andrus and Eastman did their part in the heavy ring of the Casperites and in\block- ing the offensive of thc Indians. ag CHICAGO AND ST. LUIS BOWLERS OUT I LEAD (By Associated Press.) “ST.

Poor connections at Fort Collins resulted in Mondt missing his train, but the anxieties of the Jatter’s trainer were dissipated some distance north of there when Monit, after the train had made a brief stop at a small station, walked into the Pullman unconcerned over his misfor- tune, And the roads over which he had speeded to catch the train were not of the best. Mondt declares he has no tricks up his sleeve that. have not been worked overtime in the mat game, but he will enter the match with a de- termination to use everything he has in an effort to beat Taylor. either by pinning him or on points, if the Wyoming champion proves invincible. Like all other opponents; who have met Taylor during the past season he admits that the Casper favorite holds the reputation of being one of thd best prospects for future cham- plonship honors and it will be no disgrace to be defeated. The Coloradoan follows a clean style of wrestling, but has no fear of the headlock, the toe hold or any other punishment for which some of the near champions are being, wide- ly criticized. Few big men of the mat game have championed the arguments of these critics that the so-called “bar- barous” holds should be eliminated. According to Jack Taylor,.the ability to secure or use such a hold success- fully is evidence of superiority in training, which is the wrestler’s great- est builder. Taylor is perfectly will-| ing that all holds recognized in the! ¢atch-as-catch-can dictionary be used against him if he can have the same privilege. Mondt went through a 45-minute workout with his trainer at the Cas- per Athletic Club Sunday afternoon and the gym was packed for the ex- hibition. ‘Taylor took a day off and both men rested last night and today in preparation for their strenuous go. M. N, Tally of Laramie, manager for Mongonoff, arrived on the same train with Mondt Sunday to chal- lenge the winner of tonight's match at the Iris.

A meeting probably will be called at an early date to perfect the conference by accepting applications for membership and electing officers. The conference headquarters would be shifted from place to place, depend- ing upon the residence of the execu- tive chairman and the ‘secretary- treasurer. Rules would be outlined covering football, basketball and track sched- ules and provisions for the cancella- tion of games.
