DES MOINES, Iowa, Nov. 10.— The punting of Pence and the line smashing of Strong and Buckton proved too much for Drake univer- sity’s eleven here Saturday, and Coe college triumphed, 12 to 6. Fumbles were frequent on both sides, although the weather and field were ideal. Coe's scores came as a result of a touchdown by Buck- ton and two field goals from the 45 and 55-yard lines by Pence. Drake's lone touchdown came 2s @ result of a forward pass, Boelter to Lingenfelter. Drake was outplayed in all stages of the game, although Coe was considered as a practice game, prior to the remaining hard games for Drake, in the Missouri Valley con: ference. Drake's goal line had not been crossed before this season, and the team is still leading in the race for the conference title, as this game does not affect the standings. Captain Boelters showing in his last game in his home stadium was a sorry one, compared with his pre- vious games. JOE BERGER T0 PILOT DENVER Will Receive $10,000 Year as Playing Manager.

They were out- welghed about seven pounds to the man but made up in science what they lacked in brawn. Kelly scored the Casper touchdown on a short plunge after he and his teammates had worked the ball from the middle of the fie’d down near the Glenrock goal. The Casper score came in the first quarter. Casper held Glenrock well until the last quarter when the visiting quarter began’ calling for line plunges. The Casper line crumpled under the weight of their opponents and Thornton finally shot off tackle for a 20 yard run and a score. The alties were meted out. Both teams fumbled half a dozen times and the sa'ns in fumbles were about even. The Casper forward passing was much superior to the visitors and several well tossed forwards resulted in aerial gains, Several of the Casper team loomed up near first team possibilities. Cra ter at center, a 115 pounder, looked Uke a natural football player and showed up like a veteran. Dennis and Blodgett in the line played ox- cellent games.

USE OF BALL PARKS FOR RING BOUTS NOT GREAT SUCCESS, SAID By HENRY L. FARRELL (United States Sports Editor- NEW YORK, Nov. 10.—(United Press)—Boxing in major league baseball parks has not been sensa- jonally successtur as a financial venture. Suggestions that baseba!l varks be used only for baseball in the future was not based entirely 1pon the ethical grounds that th »oxing was not a worthy public pal of the “grand national pastime.” tan Johnson's announcement that « American league would not al- wv the use of its parks next sum- mer for boxing was slightly prema- ture, according to recent reports. Johnson's order will have to be affirmed by the owners of the eight clubs in the league and although Co'onel Rupert said at the time of the announcement that he was in fa- vor of it, there are reasons to be- lieve that the Yanks may demand a few reservations, When the Yankee owners were discussing the use of their new stadium for boxing it was under- stood that Colonel Ruppert did not favor the use of the grounds for weekly shows, but that he felt it would not be harmful to stage one or more big bouts and he may still be of the same opinion. “While the Yankees must have made a little money from boxing last season, the Giants found their extension into other fields highly unprofitable, ‘She Giants got a big take out of the Dempsey-Firpo fight, but it was not enough to overcome the’ losses sustained on three other champion- ship bouts that were previously staged in the Polo Grounds. Until the Giants are able to get back what they lost it 1s improbable that the club will allow the Nationa! league to put the ban on boxing without a fight. There is no doubt that baseball parks are not proper places to handle fight crowds in, and it is just as much a fact that the playing fields are always badly damaged by fight crowds.

URBANA, IIl., Nov. 10.— (United Press).—“Too much Grange” in the first quarter put Wisconsin to rout and “Fighting Bob” Zuppke’s Illini marched to their fourth straight conference win here today, 10 to 0. Illinois scored all its points in the first quarter, a series of sparkling end runs by Grange, star sophomore half- back mixed in with forward passes, making {t possible for Grange to go over for the only touchdown of the game during the first 15 minutes. Britton kicked goal and a few minutes later booted a place kick. ‘The rest of the game was a see- saw affair, the powerful holding their own against the con- ference leaders. Grange did not play in the second half. Wisconsin kicked off to Grange, | who ran the ball back five yards. Repeated attacks at the Badger line failed to make much headway and the Illini kicked. Wisconsin brought the ball to Illinois’ 20 yard line when Taft broke away for a long run. After failing to gain, the Badgers attempted a drop kick but it went wide. Illinois took the ball on its 20 yard line and marched down ths field as Grange ran around the ends time after time, finally carrying the oval over for a touchdown on a sweeping run around right end. Britton scored the added point with @ perfect kick. Wisconsin kicked off and after an exchange of punts, the Illin! took the ball to the Badger 35-yard line from where Britton scored a place kick. The two teams then fought evenly for the remainder of the first econd, third and fourth quarters were filled with hard smashes at the two lines, with neither side giving ground. Grange was slightly injured during the sec- ond quarter but stuck in. He did not appear for the second half. however, Zuppke apparently wish- ing to take no chances with his star unless he was needed. “The victory for the Illini puts them far ahead in the race for Big Ten honors.
