DERR (United Press Staff Corre- spondent) CHICAGO, Nov. 22.—The University of Chicago today won the undisputed football championship of the Big Ten conference. By playing to a scoreless tie with Wisconsin this afternoon, Alonzo Stagg’s Maroon’ warriors kept their slate free from the stain of defeat. Every other team in the conference lost at least one game. Three teams—Illinois, Ohio and ‘Wisconsin—were able to tie Coach Stagg’s Maroons, but none good enough to beat the new champions. Before the Big Ten session opened, however, Missouri scraped through With a 3 to 0 win and Chicago even- ed its accound by defeating Brown. Chicago won the 1924 title in a , Sengetional finish of one of the greatest seasons for upsets the mid- dle west has ever known. When Ohio State scoréd a field goal against the Maroons and only a brilliant kick by fhe diminutive D.ck Curley evened the score in the just quarter, none of the critics considered Chicago in the r Illinois, aided by the mighty Grange had beaten Michigan and Jowa. They looked like sure-fire winners, And then came the climax. The Maroons went into the Illinois game under a big handicap. Instead of devoting their. energy to stopping Grange, the cunning Stagg directed his men to asume the offensive, which they did, scoring two touch- downs before Grange ever carried the ball. A sensational 80- yard run by “Red” tled the score in the third period and the game ended in a 21 to 21 tle. Then, on the folléWing week, Ili- nols was further humiliated, losing to Minnesota. Chicago, after poit- ing for Illinois, slipped back and had trouble in winning from North- western, 3 to 0. Chicago beat three teams—In- diana, Purdue and Northwestern. Michigan won four and lost two. 11 linois and Iowa each won three, lost one dnd tied one.

The youngster who made an All-American position in his sophomore year, set the confer- ence on fire with ‘his brilllant open field running and accurate forward passing.

TONY FUENTE IS AQOMED AGAIN Pacific Coast’ Antics Are Analyzed by Fair Play. By FAIR PLAY. (Copyright, 1924, Casper Tribune) NEW’ YORE . 22.—Fred Ful- ton’s antics in Los Angeles make it appeam® that an effort to bolster up the reputation of one Tony Fuente, the Mexican heavyweight, is reall¥ on. Alread scraps of publicity con. cerning the formidable qualities of the big greaser fave wafted this way. Fred Windsor is handling the yellowskinned wonder and Freddy is the same manager who tried to start things hungning with Floyd Glotzback, ex-husband of Madame Matzenauer. Glotzbach, as will be recalled, was thrown out'on his ear by Tommy Simpson, the Oakland promoter, the first time Windsor fed Glotzbach a set-up. With the exception of the Floyd Johnson match, every scrapper Fuenta has met so far has been an absolute unknown. As for Floyd Johnson, the story is that he is @ very sick man, an organic disease. This is gossip, but the fact that both Fue! and Pat Lester beat him {@ pretty good proof that this game fighter is through, If Fuente really did knock Fulton out—and all reports are to the ef- fect that the spectators refused to. believe that Fuente’s blows had the power to hurt the platerer—it difficult to see what credit the Mex- ican could gain in the big time places. = Fulton has been plastered too often to add much reputation to anyone who applies to sleeping potion to the elongated Minnesotan, .) THERMOPOLIS COMING HERE DECEMBER 4 Wyoming's high school football champions will not be decided until the week after Thanksgiving ac- cording to an announcement made yesterday at the Casper school when it was learned that the scheduled Thanksgiving day game here with Thermopolis had been postponed a week. Thermopolis and Worland are now tied for the championship of the Big Horn basin as the result of Worland beating Greybull so de- cisively and a,Turkey day game be- tween the two is neééssary to de- cide the champion of that district. The winner will be brought here for a game, probably Wednesday, De- pember 's team will go to Salt Creek Thanksgiving day for a game with the Oil Field high school players. This will keep the loca! team {n con: dit for the championship game hete later. * THE TRIBUNE’S PAGE OF SPORTING NEWS TIED NS BASKET LEABUE SCHEDULE FOR COMING SEASON Play for Ch-mpionship v: : December 16. ” The complete schedule of the Cas- per basketbal’ league as drawn up and approved by the league officials and team managers at the Thurs- day night meeting Is as follows: Tuesday, Deceaeey 16.

It was anybody's game until the last two monutes of play when Mur- ray Cuddeback of Stanford took a long forward pass, which started with a dazzling crisscross fgrma- tion, across for the touchdown which made it nobody's game. Stanford took the lead in the sec- ond quarter when Cuddeback, who had been called upon to fill the place of the disqualified Norman Cleaveland, kicked two. field goals from placement—one for 35 yards.

OAKLAND DEAL IS OFF, GLAIM OAKLAND, Nov. 22.—That the Oakland baseball association will not pass to Walter Johnson, star Amerl- can léague-hurler, and George Weiss of New Haven, looked certain today when it was learned that.Johnson left for his home in Reno, Nevada, and Welss was ready to return to New Haven after conference here last night. .
