Neither could get in the decisive first punch which had won for each in their two previous bouts. The contest was resolved into a grinding mill of the hammer-and-tongs sort and it was in the ninth that the end could be seen.

CORNELL'S SUPEROR.
Philadelphia, Nov. 26. Pennsylvania gave Cornell a hard beating in their annual Thanksgiving day battle on Franklin field this afternoon. By a thrilling play of spectacular forward passes and other variations of up-to-date football Pennsy ran the score up to 17 to 4. Although outplayed by a decisive margin, the work of the Cornellians never lost its dash, and the Ithacans were still going full tilt at the finish, but were fighting an uneven battle. " An enormous crowd of 25,000 people witnessed the game, and tonight followers of old Penn are claiming for their team a rank equal to Harvard. Pennsy finished the season without a defeat, and unquestionably has been playing a brand of football more modern than Harvard's or any other eastern team. Penn's forward passes were the feature of today's engagement. The whole game abounded in open

YELLOW SHOW! BY
FIRST REGlMEflTERS
The Hammond Iroquois football team defeated the pseudo First Regiment team yesterday by the score of 6 to 0. The conduct of the First Regiment team was reprehensible in the extreme. After making two engagements to play Hammond and finally promising positively to play In this city on Thanksgiving day, the First Regiment team showed up yesterday afternoon with but eight of their eleven players. A large crowd had gathered to see the game and for an hour or more a thousand to fifteen hundred people stood around waiting for the arrival of the rest of the First Regiment team. It was finally decided to allow the First Regiment team to pick up three local players and make some sort of a showing so that the crowd would not be disappointed. With three strange players who did not know the signals, the First Regiment team was a sorry spectacle in the way of a team, and all of the members of the Hammond eleven lost their keenness for the game. The Hammond team, however, went into the contest with a determination to win, and in the early part of the game pushed the ball over the First Regiment goal on straight football tactics.
After that the two teams surged up and down the field until time was call
ed. The Hammond team did not at
tempt to play football an dall it seemed concerned about was to keep the other team from scoring, and it was successful. The . two halves of the
game were played through without an
intermission between the halves.
The Hammond team .easily . showed
its superiority over the so-called First
Regiment aggregation and the ringers they were forced to put In the place of the team members who failed to show
up.
There were stories circulated to the
effect that the First Regiment players
were airaia or Hammond and had a
yellow streak down their backs, which prompted them to take the means they
did of filling their engagement here.

Betting Papke favorite at 10 to 7. Attendance (estimated) 8,000. Receipts (estimated) $30,000. Referee Jack Welsh. San Francisco, Cal., Nov. 28. Stan
ley Ketchel regained the middleweight championship of the world by knocking out Billy Papke in the eleventh round of their bout in Jimmy Coffroth's arena this afternoon. Before a crowd of ful
ly 8,000, the two put up a desperate
struggle, a brief lull in tne tnira
round being the only quiet interval in
the go.
It was the second case in the history
of the American ring wherein a cham
pion once defeated, regained his title.
The only other Instance was w nen Jack Dempsey, after losing ;to George
La Blanche, came back and trimmed his man decisively. .
From the time the men put up their
hands to start a rurious nrsi penou until the very close of the bout, the
issue hung in the balance. Even when Ketchel seemed to have the edge at the
close of the tenth, when Billy appeared
groggy from the shower or blows landed upon him, Papke was able to come back with counters which kept the supporters of Ketchel uneasy until the end came in the succeeding round. J"o Fouls Claimed. It was a fairly won battle, without a single foul blow occurring. While the men roughed it and wrestled about the ring for one-half minute at a time neither made a complaint to the referee and each seemed to like this style of going. Even when Papke dashed upon Ketchel in the fifth, locking him

Two of Baltzer's onslde kicks eluded the Wabash backs and were retrieved by Harvey and Chaloupka, both of whom ran for touchdowns. Straight football enabled Kreger and Sturzenegger to smash through the Wabash line and over the goal for touchdowns. An electrifying r.un of ninety yards by Bentley gave the cornhuskers their final score. With nine Nebraska substitutes on the field and with less than a minute to play, Hawkins saved Wabash a shutout by returning a punt sixty yards, carrying the ball over the Nebraska goal.

GROWN POINT IS VICTOR
Crown Point, Ind., Nov. 25. (Spe cial.) The heavy warriors of the Low
ell Atheltic club went down in defeat
ror the second time at the hands of
the Crown Point eleven in a well
played game of football at the old fair
grounds, yesterday afternoon. The
score of 20 to 0 which was piled up on the Lowell squad does not do justice to
the lighter men of the Crown Point
team, as three different times they had fought their way to their opponent's goal line only to lose the ball. The
Crown Point lighter backs plunged
through the Lowell line at will, while
the Crown Point line was a stonewall
against the assaults of their oponents.
Crown Point made Its first score In
about three minutes, of play, when Ed Glover kicked a pretty drop kick from the twenty-yard line against a terrific ..wind that was blowing .at the time. The wind hampered both teams on their forward passes, but Crown
Point succeeded in making two pretty plays of this nature. Lowell was un
successful in all their attempts at the
new style of play, the only gains they made being on the old style method of football. Individually, nearly every man on the Crown Point team played
star game and showed their ability
as football players, notwithstanding
the fact that they have had comparatively little practice, this being their second game for the season. Lowell
sent a large delegation to witness the game, who were disappointed in the defeat of their favorites.
It is the intention of the members
of the Crown Point team to organize earlier next season and by consistent practice the home team will be an aggregation that will be hard to defeat.
The lineup of the two teams was as
follows:

The fight was fast, and, though both men were in good condition at the end of the bout, the crowd evidently believed that Gardner should have had the decision.
