SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 21, 1924. FLEVEN GAMES SCHEDULED THIS YEAR FOR NATRONA HIGH SQUAD! Home Field to See Seven Battles With Date for Thanksgiving Still Open; Salt Creek to Open Season Here Next Saturday, 4. Coach Dean Morgan of the Gasper high school foot- hall team yesterday announced his schedule for the coming fall, calling for a-total of 11 games, the longest schedule that local boys have ever played. The season opens this coming Saturday and will not be concluded until Thanks- at home, two out of town and two open dateé at the end of the season for intersectional games. Of these dates one game will be played in Anpther Trip Assured for _ Lefty O’Doul (By NEA Service) SALT. LAKE CITY, Sept: 20. — “Lefty” O'Doul, of the Salt Lake Bees, stands a good chance of go- ing up to the majors again—and this time, tak® it from the western fans, he'll stick. “Letty” O'Deul, pitcher didn't n@ke much of an impression. But ‘Lefty” as an outfielder with 9 bat- “LEFTY O'DOUL ting averag’ of .378 for 100 games and a much-feared throwing arm — t's different. 4 O'Doul is one of baseball's’ enig- ‘mah. “After “a good showing in the west, he was taken east by Miller Huggins, of the Yanks in 1920— only to warm the bench with scarce- ly @ chance to show his stuff. Next season, Huggins released O'Doul to the San Francisco Seals —and he proceeded to win, 25 out of 34 games. ‘ This caused. Huggins to recall him in 1922—only to leave him on the bench again. Traded to Boston, O'’Doul thought at last he'd got his chance. But he didn’t and late last ‘season came here. Converted from a slabster to an outfielder, O'Doul proceeded to burn things‘up, and hence fans predict another trip up, with results dif- ferent from his two former ones Casper and the other may be out of town. The big games here are with Chey- enne the first Saturday in Novem. ber and Laramie here on Armistice day. The Thanksgiving date, still open, is expected to be played with Sheridan, depending on that school's winning the championship of its section. The complete schedule is as fol- lows: September 27,.—Salt Creek at Cas- re. ‘ October 4.—Riverton at Casper. October 10.—Glenrock at Glenrock. October 11.—Wheatland at Casper. October 18.—Lander at Lander. November 1.—Cheyenne at Cas- per, . November 11.—Laramie at Casper. November 14.—Glenrock at Cas: per. November 22.—Open. November 29.--Open. Rather than to take the chance of developing his men too rapidly and bringing the team into top form too early in the season, Coach Morgan of the high school squad called a two-day halt Friday and the men ‘were instructed to Iay aside their togs until Monday. No attempt has been made to pick team so far by Coach Morgan and it 1s probable that all of the candi- dates will be given a chance to show their ability in the first few games. The squad now has three complete teams and one or two left over. Starting Monday the players will be sent through long hard workouts in preparat'on for the game with the Salt Creek high school here next Saturday afternoon. ——————.-——_ Rawlins Golfers To Stage Tourney i = sirin WLINS, Wyo.,.

Upsets in Golf Champs Make Tourney Forecast _ Hazardous, Says Perry By LAWRENCE PERRY. (Coppright, 1924, Casper Tribune) NEW. YORK, Sept. 20.—When ex: pert golfers discuss the probable outcome of the 28th national ama- teur golf championship which begins on Saturday at the beautiful Merion Cricket. club at Ardmore, Pa., the impression is quickly established that in no game are champions so unstable. For example, Max Marston, de- fending the title on his home tur Jess Sweetser, champfon. in 1922 and runner-up last year, and Bobbi Jones, of Atlanta, are-named as the trio most Mkely to ascend to the amateur golfing throne. Their re- cent exploits and thé character of their play this year ha been, of course, taken into cons'deration in gpadlishing*them ‘as favorites. Yet-you-could-not-get-a~ golfing Wiseacre to lay material odds that any of the three will survive the final round. That is the way golf 1s. One flaw ie likely to play havoo ith the hopes, if not the expecta- ms of the most formidable golfer. History is full of surprises, up- ets, Overturns of the most radical sort.

He can stand alone and is a logical subject for an odds-on bet. “So stood Bill» Larned and Maurice McLoughlin and sd now stands Tilden, In boxing, there usually ts the out: standing figure, the champion who knows no real rival. And so it goes. Does this mean that tennis and other sports are better adapted to the whims of that essence in human life that produces geniuses? Does it mean that golf, of all games is gus- ceptible to the development of a comparatively large number of players who wi}l stand pretty much on the same plane? Perhaps so, And if so, the fact may be hailed as ap- Plying the highest acolade to golf. For after all, the great element in competitive sport is the uncertain. ty of the outcome of contests, whether between teams or individ- ualg. The game thrives chiefly upon the pride of personal opinion and in golf, as in no other sport; Personal opinion is. diverse and abounding in qualifying phrases. It is a testimonial to the sanguine hearts of golfers that so many for- eigners should be entered in~ our national amateur. For the history of amateur golf tests, both in Eng- land and America offers a tradition dead against the invader.

About 20,000 witnersed the game, which was a substitute for the third match in the international series, the United States having al- ready won the Huriingham cup by defeating the British in two straight games.

Hagen finished the 36 holes match two up on Barnes. § Although Hagen was in’the lead hroughout the day, Barnes put up 4 gallant fight {n the afternoon and the match was not over until the final green. Barnes and Hagen each had the championship twice in previous tourneys. It was easily Hagen’s match throughout the first 18 holes. Barnes was erratic at times and failed to play the brand of golf that carried ‘him into the finals. . Hagen took six holes and Barnes two during the morning round. ‘When the players took the course for the afternoon play Barnes came back in sensational- fashion. He halved three holes wich Barnes net- ting him play by play, and was ofly one behind at the 36th hole. With a chance to tle the score on the last hole, Barnes dubbed a shot and the match went to Hagen. GIBBONS KEPT BACK BY HIS HARD LUCK By HENRY L. FARRELL (United Press Sports Editor.) NEW YORK, .Sept. 20—(United Press.}—Tom Gibbons, the St. Paul boxer, never was a champion and probubly never will be one. No lack of class or ambition prevented him from reaching the official top in his business. He was kept back by a succession of bad breaks that surely ‘has made him the hard luck cham- pion, if nothing else. One of the greatest drawbacks that handicapped Gibbons was his dispokition. He is’ too darn ‘nice to get to the tap, because’ success in the boxing business éntalls a certain degree of advantage-taking, and Gibbons considers the other fellow. His most recent bad break came when he signed articles to take a yery reasonable percentage of the gate receipts for meeting Gene Tunney, American light heavy- weight champion, in Madison Square Garden during November. It had been said that Gibbons de- manded $100,000 for appearing on the Milk Fund benefit card earlier In’ the season. If he did demand that much money he did no more than any other boxer of his class and drawing power. But we have reasons to believe he didn't. If Gibbons considered himself a $100,000 fighter, he would not have listened to an indoor date for meet- ing Tunne; Little, 10-cent fighters of second-rate class refused to isten to any offers for indoor shows last winter and they are doing the same thing this year, but when Tex Rick- ard handed him the articles he signed without a word. Tunney had other ideas, however, when Rickard went after him. He didn’t actually refuso to sign, but Rickard sald a fow days ago that he had almost abandoned hope for the mateh. “I have signed articles in the safe from Gibbons. But Tunney has not signed. You can use your own judgment in finding the reason why the match has not been made,” Rickard said. Tunney wouldn't take the match, even after doing a ‘lot of talking that Gibbons wouldn't fight him, and that he would take him any time a promoter could catch Gib: bons. Gibbons was “caught” and thefi Tunney ran away. The promoters of the Milk Fund show have no reason to criticize Gibbons. They did him a fine trick when they signed him up two years ago to meet Floyd Johnson. Gib- bons went to a lot of expense for preliminary training and then was Notified “that he ought to accept a releasé and that Joinson wouldn't take him. Instead of seeking redress in the cpurts or instéad of complaining. Gibtons accepted the when the promoters panned him for not taking another chance with them this summer, he did not an- swer them. Gibbons lost another match three years ago when Tex Rickard signed. him) to meet Georges Carpentier after the Frenchman had _ been stoppel by Dempsey. Gibbons waited around and turned down othor business until he became satis- fied that the match could not be made, While the managers of rival box- ers and their fighters have been squawking that Gibbons would not take anything but a setup, Rick- ard's estimate of the St. Paul boxer does not bear them out. “He's the easiest boxer I have Rickard said. ‘The trouble I have: found {is that I can get Gibbons, but I can’t get anyone to fight him. Gibbons went to England to fight Jack Bioomfleld and got only $15,000 of the $50,000 that had -been prom- ised him. .The wise crackers said he was a dumb business man. They didn’t say that about Pete Herman when he went over to fightyJimmy Wilde and came back with a $20,000 check that never has been cashed. It was no good. If some other fighter had gone to England, and the match had been well mannged, Gibbons then might have been criticized, The point in this connection, howeyv is that Gibbons has enough sportsmanship in him to take a chance and gamble with promoters The attitude of other fighters would indicate that such sportsmanship is not to be desired in the boxing busi- ness. Gibbons gambled with the Promoters in Shelby last summer, and lost. He fought Jack Dempsey and didn’t get a cent. There isn't another fighter in the business who would have gone into the ring under tho same conditions. One of the amusing features of the Gibbons-Tunney match is that Tunney is running around trying to force Mike McTigue into the ring with him. He claims that he ha signed contra in Rickard's office for a fight with McTigue and that the world’s champion will not sign to meet him Rickard has a signed ¢ from Gibbons to meet Tunn ‘Tunney will not sign. Tunney ought to explain why he is unwilling to fight Gibbons instead’ of making public demands for an explanation from McTigue for the same thing. It is rather unusual that Tunney allowa his name to be used in the made it necessary to postpone the opening of the Casper Country club annual golf tournament until the latter part of this week.

Reducing its annual corn bill from $55,000 to. $12,000 is what Washakie county has done in the last several years, according to J. T. Weaver, agricultural agent there, who stop- ped in Casper Saturday on his way home to Worland from the state fair at Douglas. Realizing the economie require- ments of the times for greater in- dustry and decided retrenchment, Washakie county farmers, under the leadership of their agent, togeth- er with a number of Worland bust- ness men, got together and discuss ed the stock feeding problem. They found “that each year they Were sponding $55,000 for Nebraska corn. To get away from such « large ox- penditure, they formulated plans for gtowing thelr own corn. As a + consequence, Washakie is today producing three-fourths of its corn. Expectations are that next year its corn bill to outside localt- ties will not exceed $8,000, said Mr, Weaver. Worland stands out as an exam: ple of what sound business and per- manent bullding will do for 2 Wyo- ming town. Sugar beets. corn rals- ing and stock feeding have been the means of maintaining a desirable level prosperity for the community. There have been no failures and nore is feared fared County Agent Weaver yesterday. So interested fs Worland in corn that last year it established the state's first. annual corn show there. This December the.second will be held and the number of entries will undoubtedly show a ‘very material increase, since Wyoming has awak- mud thrown at Gibbons because he is such a fine fellow snd such a credit to the game. Gibbons and Tunney are the two highest type boxers in the busines: hey are ened to the fact that it can produce corn as well as other states.
