OHNNY KILBANE, the feather- weight champion, isn’t paying much attention to ring affairs thepe days, Instead, he is mixed up fim & hot political battle in his home feown (Cleveland) for election to the of Councilman, an eMce similar te that of Alderman here. Johnny ag a good chance of winning, but he thas to beat a man who has held the job for nearly twenty years.

Early morning Kilbane and the Mayoralty candidate begin their wotkouts. Here is their daily pro- eo: ve miles on the road. teen minutes of calisthenics, nm minutes pulling the weights. ifteen minutes with medicine ball, ve minutes skipping the rope, ix minutes of boxing—three two- Mitjute rounds. . Bishop says the training helps wonderfully. “It keéps me in lect physical condition,” he adds, ‘at the game time I'm picking up pointers on the manly art ot self-defense.” If elected, Kilbane will retire from the|'ring and take rank with Jack McAuliffe as a retired undefeated lea of his class.

PAGE IN N (The New Yor™ Evening World.) Columbia Eleven Likely To Hand Williams Team Big Surprise To- Local Collegians ‘Have Been Whipped Into Good Shape for This Battle. By William Abbott. OME on you Williams team, Columbia ish't a bit scared of your record. Mr. Boynton, the Williams captain and star quarter- back, can start on his sensational runs, but the Morningside footballers belleve they will stop with a re- sounding thud al} advance move- ments by the Purple runners to-mor- row at South Field, It ts almost ex- Pecting too much that Columbia will lick Williams, which heJd Cornell to ® 8 to 0 score last Saturday, but if the visitors are coming down here with the expectations of steam-roll- ing Over the home defenders they are likely to return with their mission a failure. } | Columbia has been putting in ¢: tra licks this week under the djre tion of Fred Dawson and Line Coach Tom Thorpe, whose pleadings for more action would nearly make the Statue of Liberty do a flying tackle. ‘The scrub eleven, specially equipped with plays that Williams will, prob- ably use in to-morrow's game, wore given the ball and ordered to raze up the varsity team, The poor) scrubs tried earnestly cnough, but | they might just as well have butted | the Wall of China for all the im- pression they made on the first Blue and White eleven. | Using Kenning as a roving centre, the varsity effectively throttled all attempts of the second team to gain either through the line or with sweeping end rushes. Towers, at left tackle, Was an outstanding figure on defense, This big chap was only discovered last season when the coaches were making a determined move to bolster up the line. Being a little green to his position, Towers allowed himself to be boxed in, but under Coach Thorp's tutelage Tow- forward, Forsythe and Jack Kennedy, two strong, aggressive forwards, have | also shone up well in practice this week. This pair pf of huskies, to- | gether with Towers, are expected to be Columbia's shock players when Williains swings into action her’ pow- erful running game. Columbia will start against Williams the same backfield that took part in the Ver- mont game last week with the ex- ception that Shaw will be in at half- back in place of Thornton. Quigley will again be the pilot, Some of the gloom is lifting from the Princeton camp, The Tiger ,\s beginning to show his stripes once more, and all because Keck, a big, husky tackle, has returned’ to the squad as a regular player, This is the same young man who two years ago practically defeated the Yale freshman team single-handed. Keck has only recently returned from ger- vice in France. He managed to get in the Lafayette battle for a. few minutes just in time to help re- pulse the Maroon when the enemy had the ball on the Tiger's one-yard line. ‘The Orange and Black line has dis- played marked improvement the last few days, a change that is attributed to Keck's return and to Intensive coaching that has been a daily diet for the Tiger linesmen since their ton centre, looks like the ambul S. | (Ei foureman, ths regulag Prince. aioe nas, Waa isk deat edule Morrow out with a broken leg, Herrick, a giant West Point guard laid up with a broken arm, Phinney, & promising Harvard end incapaci- tated with a wrenched back, well it © corps would get considerable exercise before the football campaign comes to an end While Columbia will be locking | arms with Williams to-morrow, N | York University will tackle the strong | Wesleyan team at Ohio Field, N.
