ERNEKE'S WARRIORS NOT FIT.
Least Two Regulars Will be Out of "Big" Contest—Clogston's Crew Works Out At Ball
Park.
By Ralph H. White.
Garfield high has a better chance to feat Wiley hlffh In their Turtcey i' game at Athletic park than Is gentlly conceded by the football public .jtdeed, here's one who thinks mighty sell of the north enders.
One thing certain, Clogston's crew fill trot on the field in the pink of conation. Even' man is in tip top shape nd keyed up to concert, pitch. On le other hand, the south siders. IMhed with a string of victories, are iking too much for granted. "We in't lose," seems to be the genoral jjlnlon at Wiley but unless Werneke'a (arriors take the coming tilt far more irlous they will be a sadly rtisapOlnted bunch when they sit clown jhursday evening to cut into the tur-
'No matter how classy an outfit Wiley lay be, the north enders aren't ono bit ca"r:d and will fight the south siders 0 the last ditch. Wiley's Impressive r''c. field, directed by that skillful general, Raymond Wonieke, will the going disputed at every step !,J the team lacking playing quality 11 be the one to go down in defeat, .id condition means superior staying lallty. In that respect Garfield shines. ~i purple and white are in perfect
I'slcal shape, while their opponents ve been taking things easy over tee the win over Robinson. True, iley stacked up against Coalmont st Saturday, but the majority of W. hietes loafed through the tussle and en then, were without their usual :ork."
Wiley Star* Out.
.And, In addition, Wiley will be with31. the services of at least two regua,rs. O'Connell, end, is out with a bum boulder as is Herris, tackle. Both are fr'rtr performers and although the men :ho will till their/shoes may be their iiual, the team work of Wiley is likely be below par. Jimmy King, nursing broken hand, may get into the thickj»st, but it is doubtful. So it can be ieen that the red and white team is Jiol f-'oing to have a snap Thursday kl'ternoon. (Joins on the suppogtlon that "the early bird catches the worm," the 'Garfic-ld squad turned out bright and jearly Monday morning for a long drill .•at the ball park.

If such a thing is possible Shugrue's threatened affliction must be doubly hard by reason of tiie fact that he has Just turned twenty-one and was apparently on the threshold of fame and fortune, as such things go in pugilism. Until recently Shugrue was rated in the same class with Griffiths, White, Mandot and Lewis.
Just about a year ago Shugrue, while lacing his shoes in a gymnasium, snapped the steel-tipped end of a shoe lace into his left eye. That was just previous to the Akron bout with Johnny Griffiths. As time wore on, Shugrue's eyes grew worse and finally an operation was necessary.
Shugrue remained in forced retirement until a fortnight ago, when he l.'attled Jimmy Murphy, a Philadelphia product of ordinary ability. It was evident In this fight thai Shugrue's vision was terribly impaired and Murphy, who would have had no chance with Shugrue a year ago, was generally acclaimed the winner.
The Skeeter boy still can see well enough to read and get about, but he's a pitiful ob.iect in the ring and his friends are exerting every pressure to make him quit before a fatality occurs. The climax of Joe's career is just about as dark as his sensational rise to promise was bright. He st|irLed as a bantamweight., and at the age of eighteen-was holding his own with boys like Leach Cross and Phil Brook.
A year ago last March Shugrue went to the Antipodes and fought sensational twenty-round fight with Milburn Saylor, getting the decision. This was really the beginning of liis career as a lSS-pounder. When he returned to the states he whipped Welsh badly, developed Into a big "card," was matched with the spectacular White and proceeded to outpoint him In Gotham. These two victories established Shugrue as one of the leading championship contenders—and then came the apparently trivial eye accident and its terrible consequences.
to trim. Garfield at any stage ot the game, so why should we worry?" Now confidence is all to the merry, but over-confidenco has often brought about the downfall of a better team and such appears to be tho state of affairs at Wiley high. Anyhow, tho game Turkey day should be a thriller with the result in doubt until the final whistle, and there's no good reason why the south siders should reign an odds-on favorite over the north enders.
Predictions this .season are precarious to the extreme, but Garfield high, in my opinion, has a most excellent chance to soil Wiley's unblemished footba

LARRY DOYLE TOPS NATIONAL BATSMEN
Giant's Second Sacker Leads Sluggers With .320 Average—Carey is Championship Thief.
Lawrence Doyle of the New York Giants whaled his way into the batting championship of the National league this yenr, according to the season's official averages released yesterday by Secretary John Heydler of the vetsran organization.
McGraw's keystone sacker hung up a swat average of .320 In 150 games, beating Fred Luderus, the slugging' first baseman of tho Phillies, by live points in the season's work. Griffith of Cincinnati and Hinchman of Pittsburgh were locked for third place with a mark of .307. Jake Daubert of the Dodgers, champion batsman of 1911, was fifth in the list this year with an average of .301.
None of the Cubs compiled a swat mark of .300 (luring 1915. The nearest member of Hresnahan's tribe to that figure was Schultz, who was obtained from Brooklyn in August. He batted .289 in sixty-three games. The best hitter among Bresnahan's regulars proved to be Fisher, who soaked the pill for .287 In 147 games. The great Zim and Vic Saler, redoubtable Cub sluggers of previous years, fell back to .265 and .2(54 respectively.
The St. Louis Cardinals led the old league in team batting with an iverage of .254, with Cincinnati second, ono point behind. These figures demonstrate that games cannot be won by hits alone, otherwise the Cards and Reds would not have wound up in lowly positions. The Cubs were next to last In team swatting with a mark of .214. but they l'eat out Boston's exworld champions by four points.
Carey Tops liaflerunnera.
Carey of Pittsburgh was the champion thief of the National league season. He stole thirty-six bases. Bob Fisher of the Cubs- proved the most consistent sacrifice hitter, with forty suicides to his credit. Herzog. the Kerf pilot, was second in base stealing, one theft behind Carey, while Daubert was second to Fisher in number of sacrifice hits.
Cravath scored the highest total of runs, eighty-nine, and also led the league in home runs with twenty-fo'ir of them. Luderus. his teammate, aided by the same short fences, made only seven home runs this year. Long of the Cardinals made the greatest mini ber of three baggers, twenty-five, aud Doyle of the Giants proved the most accomplished double swatter ?/ith forty two base hits to his credit.
Groh and Griffith of the Heds performed the feat of playing in ISO championship grmes, although the schedule called for only 154. Thev did this by taking part in six games which resulted in ties, in addition to competing in 154 that did not. Ties were so numerous in the old league this year that several players besides Groh and Griffith played in more than 154 games.
FINERAN VS. GRAHAM
Walter Fineran, who on Tuesday night will face Goady ShoafT. the Paris, 111., expert in the final block of their 750 point balk line billiard match at tho Tribune parlor, will oppose Bob I Graham tonight in their city tourney match, starting at 8 o'clock. Fineran, to win. must click off 200 billiards before Graham hits the 125 mark. The long distance cueist is liked to win.

Minnesota, Nebraska and Illinois Held Best Elevens—Cornell and Harvard Eastern Leaders.
With the exception of the ArmyNavy game to be played in New York next Saturday and a few contests oi Thanksgiving day, the 1915 football season closed with the playing of Saturday's struggles.
a result of these games. Illinois and Minnesota are tied for the western conference championship and are entitled to be placed on a oar with Nebraska for the western title. In tht east, Cornell, the team which has yet to feel the sting of defeat, did not play. Harvard won so ccislvely from Yah that the Ithacans should be consi.i iri'i". the strongest team in that section, because of the 10 to 0 victory over tht Crimson eleven earlier in tho season
Some football fans may argue thai the Gophers should te given th laurels because they tied Illinois, while the Jatter was held to a .! to tie 1 Ohio State. As close followers of tlv' game know, a team plays differonr football against its various opponent. Jn one case the open running attack may be employed, while in other con tests plunging plays will be used. II all depends upon the defensive 'Ability of the opposing teams.
Another fact must be taken into consideration in regard to Illinois. Coach Zuppke was without the services of Pogue and Clark for the greater pari of the season. He was compelled continually to shift his lineup, and for this reason the record of the Illini i„all the more commendable. Zuppke ^ot results out of his material, and il would be unfair to award the 1 11 to Minnesota, since neither team los, a game, although it is admitted th. Gophers played the more consists v. football.
Speed Drfoafu lstroons.
Chicago went down in honorable feat before Illinois, 10 to 0. The Ma roons rushed off their feet at the st:iri fought the downstaters for every mei of ground there after, and had r:i l.'een able to check the downstater early in the contest the result mlgh have been different, but Illinois was the better team.
The Maroons must be given credit for gameness. After Illinois had scored ten pojnts in the opening perio I. Stagg's team cairie right back and prevented more points. After the openIng quarter, the game settled down, to a defensive battle with honors about: even. Illinois got tho Jump on (,'hicago and scored enough points to win. I
As predicted, Minnesota had liUle trouble defeating Wisconsin. 20 to After Simpson had kicked his field goal for the Badgers, Coach Williams'! team, by use of strong offensive tactics with Bierman and Wynian carrying! the ball, scored three touchdowns.'The Badgers were powerless to check these attacks, which were directed on and off the tackles.
Wisconsin's best was not good enough to win from one of the strongest elevens developed at Minneapolis in the last five years. At the start of the season the Badgers looked like the class of the conference, but the players did not come through with proper football at critical times. In other words they lacked the punch to make ground when distance was needed badly.
WIllinctuT M«'n Powerful.
It was known at the opening of the season that Minnesota would be strong this year. The eleven was a powerful aggregation at the close of last year wJfv?

With practically the same eleven. Coach Williams carefully groomed his team for eveiy game, and it showed gradual improvement with every contest, unlil it was at its best Saturday. team was strong in every department. It was composed of players who could execute forward passes or make ground by line plunging. It also was strong defonsivr.lv.
Following: defeats by Wisconsin and Chicago^ Purdue finished Its season wit ha to 0 victory over Indiana. The Loilermakers won the same by use of forward passes, and as the game was one of the most important on the schedule, the season at Lafavettr- will I undoubtedly be considered successful
Nebraska, acknowledged champion of the Missouri valley conference ran over and around Iowa to the time of 1 Hawoyes were helpless to stop the hard driving attack of the ornhuskers who must be ccnsideivil on a par with Illinois and Minnesota. In Chamberlain Coach Steihm has one ot the best ends seen in tho west since the days of Redden and Snow, of Michigan. and Abbott, of Wisconsin. This player weighs 1!M pounds and has run 100 yards in even time several times. He is effective in advancing the ball by end runs and line plunges, while his defensive ability hardly could be improved upon.
The Corn buskers have won everv game played. They won from Notre Dane and defeated the best teams west ot the Mississippi river. In winning these games, they plaved consistent football and the contests were won on their merits. According to Coach .Steihm, efforts will be made to slate a game with one of the eastern elevens Negotiations already have been started with Brown and Syracuse.
Wabash captured the championship of the minor colleges of Indiana bv winning from Def-auw, 34 to 0- Albion was the victor over Olivet, to 3, and Oregon won from the Oregon Aggies the team which defeated the Michigan Aggies, in other games of western importance.
