The University of Pennsylvania and Ohio State met on a neutral floor in Cleveland, and the Quakers, who for years have held a place in the sun in Eastern cage circles, took an awful drubbing. The ambitious Ohio Staters then took on Yale and punished the wearers of the Blue soundly. Then along came Purdue and walloped Ohio State; Illi- nois did likewise. After which Purdue was beaten by Iowa, and Illinois, already defeated by Minnesota, took a last min- ute 24-28 beating at the hands of Michigan. The only conslusion is that some sort of booby prize goes to Yale and Penn. i ‘BUD BERCOT IS SHADE WINNER BY AHERN) Butte Poy Breaks His Agreement Agrees to Fight Davis Here and Then Holds Out for More Dough OB SIMONICH, Butte welter welght, has been suspend |from the Seattle ring until he ful- fills his agreement with Austin & Salt, local promoters, which he en- tered into thru his manager, J.
