FOOTBALL PRACTICE IN - WESTERN CONFERENCE STARTED FOR SEASON CHICAGO, Sept. 16.—Football prac- tice in the western conference was of- ficially under way today. The coaches at most of the school were looking (dt material to fill gaps left by the passing of ‘somo of the 1920 players, A deluge of players flocked onto the big ten practice gridirons yesterday, 2 total of nearly 550 men appearing in uniform at the 10 schools. Purdue, one of the tailenders last year, headed the list with 90 candi- flates, apparently determined to make & great fight this year. Chicago and Northwestern had 60 men each, while Mlingis turned out six complete teams for signal work and scrimmage. ————_———_ Club Standings The Refiners were on the winning end of a 4-to-2 score. Casper can now lose all of its re- maining games-and its nearest com- petitor, Denver, win all games and Casper will still be at the head of the Midwest league for this end of the season. With Casper and Denver cinched to play in the post-season series ar- Tangements are now being formulated for the event, which should prove the baseball classic of the Rocky moun- tain region this fall. Although the Refiner pastimers have cinched the pennant they have a grievance against Sterling because of the struggie which they had had uring the latter part of the season to nose Sterling out of the running so it is probable that Manager Arbo- gast will now run in Bob Steele and Dave Davenport to cinch the early games of the series with the Prairie Dogs. j Johnny Wilson Must Explain Poor Showing JERSEY CITY, Sept. 16.—The New Jersey Boxing commission Thursday adopted a resolution accusing Johnny Wilson of Boston, middleweight box- ing champion, of failure to put forth his best efforts in his match with Bryan Downey of Cleveland, in this city on Labor day.
