The undefeated Casper and Lar amie high schoo! clevens will tangle here tomorrow in a gridiron classic which should eliminate one toain from the championship race and will go far toward determinirg who is destined to carry off ths 1924 jtitle. The Laramie squad, comprising 16\men, reached Casper today ani is stopping at the Giadstone. On the strength of early season achievements, the taams are evenly matched and the contest should be a battle royal.’ The local eleven has piled up an unbroken series of six victories, in nearly every case by a topheavy score, They enter the Armistice day tilt with a record of 171 points to a meager 31 for their combined opponents. Laramie, with four games to their credit, one a tie, have scored 128 tallies to 6 for their foes.

He scored all three Illini touchdowns and played a remarkable game as ‘safety’ man, But slightly less startling than the Chicago upset was the defeat of Ohio State by Indiana.

The wrecked Wisconsin eleven, fell an easy victim of Knute Rockne's Notre Dame thunderbolts, the South Bend team using substi- tutes during the last two poriods.

HARRIS SIGNS NEW CONTRACT WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.—Re- ports that Stanley Harri 1924 “miracle man" of baseball, was at loggerheads with President Griffith were denied today by the youthful manager, who said he had signed a 1925 contract three weeks ago and was “delighted” with the terms St carried. The new contract supersedes one made prior to 1924 when Harris took the helm of the Washington club which was to have run through the forthcoming season. The fact that Harris brought across a pen- nant winner, naturally changed the complexion of tho salary clause. fowes bai Ths "sme 5 tap sna a For results try a Tribune Class!- fed Ad, say, Sor, FETCH ME @ GLASS OF WESTERN CAMPUS FANG AGOG (PITTSBURGH TOLITTLE TALKING OVER CHICAGO TEAM'S PLAY|DRAW STRONG Powerful Offensive Launched by Stagg Proves Undoing of Red Grange and His - Illinois Confreres, N YOUNGSTERS Traynor, Oldest Player On Team, Has Had But 3 Years Experience BY JOHN B. FOSTER (Copyright, 1924, Casper Tribune) NEW YORK, Nov. 10.—The Pitts- burg Pirates evidently intend to pay more attention to young players in 1925 rather than angle for more ex- yerlenced players. The new team will have more kid blood rather than ola blood. Traynor, oldest in point of service has only been a major leaguer for three years. my, The Philadelphia Athletics have rought in Frank McGowan, an out- tlelder, whom they had placed in Milwaukee. Connie Mack has got it out of his head that McGowan is to be one of the leading outfielders 'n the American League. With the experience he has had with the American Association, .McGowan should be good next season ever is goin tr be, McGowan, Ta- mar and Simmons ought to prove @ speedier outfield than Mack has had in recent years. Miller prob- ably will be kept as a pinch hitter. When the Californians come east ‘or the minor league meetings, a deal may be consummated transfer: ‘ing Rhyne, from. San Francisco to ne of the eastern clubs. If Peck- inpaugh’s leg continues to show signs of weakness, Washington may Wtake Rhyne and keep Bluege at shird, Bluege showed that he was a fair short stop in the world series. How- ever, it would be better to keep him on third, which would be a harder position to fill and take on a short- stop from outside when Peck {s out. ‘Winter's rest, of course, may do a ‘ot for Peck’s leg. But even if he itarts the season, his leg may break lown again and then—unless the Senators could show better reserve strength than they did in the world series, they might lose their chance at another pennant. A shor who*can play as well as Rhy would give the Washington team a lot of strength on its left side. ‘With McNeeley likely to do a lot better in 1925, the outfield appears better and the Senators have only to look out for an array of pitchers to be set for another fight for the league championship. There is a trade on between two American League players something like the three-for-three trade between the Cubs and Pittsburg, but the identity of the players has not been disclosed, The New York Yanks may be one of the clubs figuring in the trade.

Of course exceptions occur from time to -time when per- sonal emotions become too highly involved. The Syracuse-Boston col- ege game, for instance, was a oretty bitter affair and neither side handled the other with gloves. Vic Hanson, himself an Irishman, was playing a great game at end for Syracuse that day and his line of talk in the heat of the conflict was amusing to both sides until he began to inquire where the Boston- ‘ans had got their reputation as hard players and cast forth the as- nersion that they were a crowd of “left footers."

The rallying cry did-not stave off defeat but it did spur the Blis to a wonderful rally and the impression it made has never been forgotten by the Army men. The Haskell Indians, as with all Indian outfi is a great talking team. Bemus Plerce, one of the greatest Mnemen that ever played football, talked to his men like a sachem and his brother, Hawley, kept it up. The Indians, one year, almost talked Harvard out of a football game by a constant chat ter of conversation which includ- ed threats as to what each player intended to do in the coming play and what they had done in plays that had gone.
