TURDAY, GLASS LACKING IN GRID TEAMS Eastem Elevens Rate Lower Than in Many Years, Is Claim. By LAWRENCE PERRY. (Copyright, 1924, Casper Tribune) NEW YQRK, Nov. 8.—There is class among the leading fgot- ball teams of the east then thers has been at any time within the writer's memory. So far gs that goes, there seems to date to have been a wide mar- gin between Illinois, a really first rate outfit and other members of the conference. But to get back to the east. ‘\e general state of affairs is gecurately reflected in the fact that Pennsylvania ia held ta repre- sent the class in this“section, This, of course, by virtue of defeats of Ta Fayette and Columbia. If a team without any appreciabje effense can be regarded as leading, then Penn is entitled to this distine- thon. At any rate, as the situation stands, the Quakers, or rather adher- ents of the Philadelphia institution, had as warrantable a claim to pre sent supremacy as any other team. Here is Syracuse unbeaten and rated way up, but Syracuse in her important football games thus far has not played so poor a brand of football in severai seasons, Yale stands way up on her show: ing and yet Yale has sueeeeded only in tying her three principal oppo- nents this year. Dartmouth, in ty- ing ¥ale and defeating Brown and Harvard, has done better than any eleven and is probably the beat of the eastern teams thus far which, as already set forth, is not saying @ great deal. Yet as to Penn and Dart- mouth, the Quakers get a shade of advantage, not ause of theory two tea but beeauhe they have a8 to the relative strength of the defeated an eleven which, up to last Saturday, was va‘ @d in the very top ight, Here is @ fact: not a very atriking fact, some may say. Never: theless, it outweighs theory, Aside from Illinois, the confer. ence teams are as a rule below stan- dard. Notre Dame ts up to snuff and Drake appears to be an able out- fit. On the Pacific slope—there is mediocrity thus far. But jn the south, a very marked forward impulse is to be noted, Alar bama and. Georgia are_two splendid NOVEMBER 8, 1924. At Alma~Alma va. Albion.

Acad. vs. vs. By (Copyright, 1924, Casper Tribune) NEW YORK, Nov. §.—QOperato! of baseball pools may find the United States agents more active in 1935 than they ever before have been regarding this form of gambling. An investigation into baseball is mald to have been going on in Cook county, Illinois, unknown to those insereated in promcting, polls, Other investigations are re- ported to have been made quietly in other sections, the intent being to ascertain the real operators of the pools. ‘The amount collected in cash for polls practically always is greatly in excess of the premiums paid to winners. No one knows just how much is collected ag no formal state- ment is made, A pool for a certain week may amount to $10,000 and $1,000 be paid out to winners, the pool:makers pocketing the other | $9,000, The authorities at Washington have’ been given some of the infor- mation that was gleaned in 1924 and they will receive more. The mails have been used to push baseball pools and it should be an easy matter to yeach offenders under the baseball laws. The pool promoters have had their agents scattered throughout large cities, being able to pay a handsome porcentage owing to the profits made by a false distribution of the funds received. Some of these agents have been located and when the proper time comes probably will be asked what they know about the baseball pool business. There is ene especially busy pool center in Pennsylvania and the prof- its the eoal regions in and about Se are said to have gone into six figures more than once. Pool tlekets also have found a heavy sale in Philadelphia, oo TIGERS MEET HARVARD IN ANNUAL CLASH CAMBRIDGE, (By the Associated Pre: of the east's outstanding gridiron classica takes place this afternoon when Harvard grapples with Prince- tan in the opening test of “Big Three” supremacy.

Many requests have been made to the local boxing promoters to stage a bout here by lovers of the mat which thrilled so much here when Jack Taylor of this city was in his prime some years ago. Whether or not the wrestling game will receive a welcome remains to be seen, but the local boxing promo- ters here will put the wrestling match on as the last event of the Program on Tuesday and those who are in sympathy with wrestling are bound to weather the aterm out, while the boxing fans can take their pick—either to sit out the struggles of the wrestlers or battle the night winds of Wyoming, Anderson and Collins will wrestle the best two falls out of three and may the best man win. Bud Hamilton who is scheduled to box Bennie Shannon of Laramie arrived here this morning with his manager Sam Bauxbaum. and will put in hia finishing training touch. es at the Casper A. C. while Shan- non is expected to arrive here Sun- day or Monday morning, finding it difficult to get away from his studies at the yoming University until that time. Both Hamilton and Shannon are in fine shape and should put up a wow of a battle for the Casper fang when they hook up before the Elks next Tuesday night. Hamilton and Shannon will be backed up by Speedball Hayden and Jack Payne in a ten-round semi- windup while Joe Bernard a new comer here will probably clash wit! Jimmy Woodhall for 10 rounds. Hayden and Payne put up a won derful battle the last time they met here, Hayden getting the decision Payne is anxious to wipe out this de feat and promises to stop Speedba!! before the ten rounds is half over. Bernard is a newcomer in thir Neck of the woods and comes herc with a good record, while Woodha!) has been out of the ring for some time but is in excellent shape and should make Bernard step to the Umit. Popular prices will prevail at this show, $1.50 and $3, and the Elke ‘auditorium should be packed to the rafters on next Tuesday night. FIRST ‘BIG THREE’ -GAME ON SCHEDULE FOR FOOTBALL FANS By HENRY L. FARRELL, (United Press’ Sports Editor) ‘NEW YORK, Nov. 8. (United Press).—That well known calm that is suposed to precede a storm can be applied with a fow exceptions to today's football schedule. On most of the college gridirons of the major loop the calm was invited to prepare for the most severe storm of the sea- son that is forecast for Saturday week. Wise schedule makers and good managers have made it a custom to get opponents that should not make it too hard for their charges on the Saturday preceding the most im- portant games of the season and with the excention of such teams as Notre Dame, Penn State, Syracuse and Pittaburgh the custom ts a fixed rule. ‘ompared to the hurricane that swept across the gridirons all over the country last Saturday, Satur. day's schedule presents hardly more than a breeze. There aro hardly more than a half-dozen out-and-out hard games on the schedule, The opening of the “Big Three” games furnishes the fancy trimmings for the east and Notre Damt's break into “Big Ten" society is the most interesting event of the west. Princeton goes to Cambridge for the firet game of the “Big Three with Harvard, a battle ‘that’ offera the hest possibilities of any contest on the eastern card, The “Big Three” certainly has no monopoly on good fogtbhall and, to the con- trary, it may be said that more of real football is known in the west- ern conference. But it is certain that, no other section of the country’ knows more about hard fighting among themselves than Yale, Har- vard and Princeton. All of the stars of the Yale eleven who can be spared will be in the stands to seout the two teams that will pounce ypon them in the last two games on their schedule. regardiesa of the fact that Maryland all but beat Yale last year when the best players of the Ell team were gut scouting, Pennsylvania, “getting ready for the annual battle with Penn State next week, plays Georgetown. There team to suggest a set-up but Pean is nothing about the Georgetown might have pieked a harder oppo- nent if the read ahead was less rocky.

(Copyright, 1924, Casper Tribune.) NEW YORK, Noy, 8.—Eyen more interesting to local promoters than the fact that college football has produced a heayyweight boxer of promise in the person of Sully Mont- somery is the fact that the initiative bill restoring pro boxing to Califor- nia was passed with a 60,000 vote margin, ’ The bill calls for ten rounds with decision and the referee and judges are empowered to call for two extra rounds if the outcome of the bout is not clear. i How this will strike the cham pions is hard to say but the writer 8 wagering there will be no great sxodus of topnotchers to a state where after carrying your opponent for ten rovnds you may nave to *arry him two rounds more.
