NOTRE DAME AND ILINT TO- HEET This Is Important 1925 Game Predicted By The Awsociated Pr The 1925 gridiron schedule of the Western Conference was under ar- rangement today at the second day's session of faculty representatives, athletic directors and coaches. Tentative schedules had been drawn by most of the coaches, but some confliots and differences remain to be threshed out. Baseball, track and field and swimming mentors also met today to arrange thelr programs. A meeting of Notre Dame and 1llinois in Champagne, October (10, was forccast. Bob Zuppke, the | 1inois mentor, and Coach Knute Rockne of Notre Dame, reached a tentative agreement at an im- promptu meeting in a hotel lobby vesterday after Zuppke reminded Rockne of a discussion they had recently in the East. 1llinois tentatively as cheduled Bob Young Waa scheduie with Nebraska for October 3 and at end is another man the R | with Towa October 17.

New York, Dec. §.—Tom Gibbons of St. Paul, martyr o¥ Shelby ana London, is favorite in his fitteen round light heavywelght clash with Kid Norfolk to be staged in the Madison Square Garden ring next Tuesday night as the feature of the annual Christmas fund bouts. Victory means another meeting with Dempsey, but of necessity the financial return will be lower than is ordinary In world championship contests, for Tex Rickard plans the match as the closing drama in Madison Square Giarden his historic barn-like structure downtown. Dempsey, it is reported, must be content with a paltry $100,000 if he engages in another bout with the deft Minnesotan who was stil on is feet at the final hell in that un- forgettable contest in the Montana sands. However, Eddie Kane, Gibbons' manager §s understood to have sign- ed a new contract with Rickard which calls for a larger percqntage than at first anticipated, a remuner- ation which cannot well be ignored considering that -his boxer has fe« years of fistic prowess ahead of him, Dempsey, according to the Garden's director, is already in line for the contest which is tentatively planne] for May Rickard ia reported to have remarked that there is not suf- ficient demand for an outdoor Demp- s bbons battle. orfolk can be considered an oh- stacle for Gibbons as the negro boasts a victory over the Pittshurg! windmill, Harry Greb, who defeated the §t. Paul man. Norfolk is a powerful Litter, a good boxer, and with the incentive provided by Harry Wills, is ont to make his for- tune after several yeafs of fighting for mediocre pay, according to hox- ing financial standards in the heayy- welght division. Gibhons 1s a sturdy ri indicated by his stubt against the champlon at 3 is a hoxer, an asset which is com- atively rare among leavy weights, and he can hit with both hands.
