BASEBALL IS ASSUKD GREAT LAKES SENDS

At Least, That's Opinion of National Association Moguls.

PEORIA, 111.. Nov. 13.—Baseball is assured for next season as a result of the end of the war, according to sentiment at the seventeenth annual convention of the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues, v.hlch opened here Tuesday. •,

President Michael TT. feexton Of Ttock Island, 111., and Secretary J. H. Farrell of Auburn, N. Y., presided at the meeting. ^he baseball men eay the caliber of the game next season will depend entirely upon the clearing up of the war situation and the feeling of the people, as a whole, to%vard the national, pastime. Secretary Farrell's report ior the past season was considered very satisfactory in spite of the shortened season and the lack of public interest.

NOTRE DAJIK, Ind., Nov. 13.—Although Coach Kockne took victory day off to rest nis men up, itfter the smashing fight with the Great JLakes team, he had them out on the Held yesterday for a light workout and will give them a scrimmage with the freshmen today. Kockne can see no rest ahead for the Notre Dame eleven. Saturday it meets the Michigan Aggies at Lansing, then follows the game with Purdue and possible games with Nebraska and MuJ nicipal Pier. These are all strong teams and Kockne will use every minute to shape up the Gold and Blue squad to meet it at every point. The hardy Grefft Lakes eleven battered the

Scarlet Hfld to Have Chance Again"* Purdue.

CRAWFORPSVILLE Ind., Nov. 13.— The Little Giant football aggregation won a victory with the capitulation of Germany. It saved the Wabash eleven the loss of three star players, which may also save the game against Purdue at Indianapolis Saturday.

However, Reed left for Camp Grant today. Reed will be a great loss to the team. He is new in school, and since King is out of the game he was hoped by local flSns to fill this vacancy. This he has been doing in scrimmage between the second string men.

Huffine, Lane and Etter, the three main cogs of the eleven, who were picked as prospective candidates for the Officers' Training school, will be In the game Saturday. Huffine is the star of the team, who, with Burns in the back field is usually responsible for all big gains for the Scarlets. Etter only needs experience to make him a marked man of the eleven.

Hard practice is being held in preparation for the game with the Boiler Makers. The local fans believe that Wabash has a chance to win the game as the Scarlets play a better game each league year at the capital city tffan they do during the entire season, while this will be Purdue's first contest at Indianapolis since 1904.

GAs\for

During the interschool scrimmage yesterday not even reporters were admitted. However, it is evident that Coach Townsend is perfecting his line and interference. If this is perfectly satisfactory the Little Giants have a chance to defeat the Old Gold eleven by a small margin..

About Twenty-Five Will Perform In A. A. TJ. Ring Contests TWb

Week,

&1RJ3AT I/AKES, 111., Nov. 18.—About twenty-flve Great Lakes box fighters will represent this end of the navv in the Central A. A. U. ring championships to be staged at Milwaukee Wednesday and Thursday. The actual team will be named in a few days, but at least twoscore of the prominent glove artists will wear the anchor-emblemed tights In the belt boutB.

Sam Miller, welter champ, has shoved off for sea duty, as has Jack De Kusse, featherweight title holder. Bryant, •who won the middleweight crown, accompanied the professionals on the London trip, hence three of the best boys ever developed here will be unable to go on.

However, Lieutenant Kennedy has gathered a classy array of boxers, and is confident of bringing back at least two of the championship medals. Bill Henry, the lightweight leader, is a beautiful boxer for amateur circles, aa, is Sam McGowan at 142, and Lascola In the 122-pound division.

Following these bouts Milwaukee is planning on producing a monster war

teams at Kay See. Commander j. B. Kaufman, athletic officer, was unable to grant the request of St. Louis war community service officials for the pugilistic services of Jimmy Conzelman, a station champion, to meet Camp Pike fighter as a feature of sport week. Jimmy is playing quarterback on the football team, hence is not available. The. grid squad will be at Annapolis during sport week.

Joe Stecher, navy wrestling king! and instructor at Great Lakes, will be operated upon this week for a minor throat trouble. The scissors expert is building up a big amateur team among the gobs.

TIGERS WORK ON DEFENSE.

GREENCASTLE, Ind., Nov. 13.— Coach Buss put his squaa Of scrapping Tigers through one of the severest defensive workouts of the season Tuesday In putting the team through the paces for the Indiana game Saturday. The game Is all that stands between a. DePauw state and interstate championship and the Tiger mentor is taking no chances in preparing his men *or the contest. The members of the Tiger outfit came through the St. Louis game in good shape in spite of the fact that the Missouri eleven was considered the strongest eleven bucked up against by the Old Gold team this year. Wlneland and W. Smith reported injuries, but both are expected to recover for the Indiana game.

IS.—It

now even seems doubtful If Indiana will have a football team to play DePauw Saturday. Last week three nf the principal stars left for an artillery officers' school at cu.up iujior. Including Faust, the quarterback. Habbe, the only substitute at that position, was put in on two days' potlce before the Fort Harrison game and did a good job in running the team. Yesterday he was called to Chicago to take an examination for entrance to the aviation department of the army. Assistant Coach Evans, who Is In charge while Coach Stlehm Is away, was up a tree as to what to do as none of the other men on the Bquad has had previous experience. Tuesday the coach gave Buck a chance at the Job. The coach Is worrying about End Kercheval, Fullback Kyle and Left Halfback Kilpatrick, each of whom has been selected for an aviation camp and Is expecting orders to leave at any time. He gave Teeters and Harper, both freshmen, a tryout at full. Right Guard Boggs had his shoulder dislocated In the Fort Harrison game and will be unable to play against DePauw. The coach is trying out McLaln and Marcovitch at this position. DePauw will have Indiana greatly outweighed, as Julius is the onlv heavy man in the Indiana line, the others averaging- only 150 pounds, There is now only one man in the crimson backfield who tips the beam at more than 140 pounds.
