FIRS! In a game which was marked by a' series of forward passes and sensational end runs, Hammond yesterday afternoon defeated the Delwood Athletic club by a score of 20 to 0. Hammond chose to defend the east goal. Hammond scored In the first half aft er about ten minutes oi pia-y wucu Heiser intercepted a forward pass and made a twenty-five yard run. Hammond then started for the goal and simply waded through the Delwood squad, pushing Shlllow over for the first touchdown. Delwood was unable to score in the first half owing to their inability to break through Hammonds line. In the second half Hammond's for ward pass became a feature of the game. The passes were working so well that nearly all the long gains made were due to forward passes. Three more touchdowns were added to Hammond's score In the last half, having been made by Lewis, Halfman and Shlllow. Delwood had thIr choice and chose ts defend the w.;st goal. Hammond had the ball most of the time, owing to the fact that Delwood was unable to get through the line and were pushed back in attempting to make an end run, and on the last down they were forced to punt. Lewis, left guard for Hammond, made his touchdown in the last half without the aid of any of his team mates. Delwood gained possession of the ball near the west goal line and were forced to punt, but Lewis broke through the line, blocked the punt and at the same time recovered me Dan for a touchdown. Hammond's score might have been larger had It decided to kick goal, but there being only one goal post, which was at the east end of the field, and not needing the points, they decided not to try for the goals. Those who came early were In time to witness a scrimmage between the big East Chicago team and H. A.

He executed them with either his left or his right hand, and was able to pass with great accuracy. Heiser and Geib received the forward passes well, and did great credit to Coach Walter Sohl's coaching. Halfman was In his old form and lived up to his reputation of being the best open field runner and on of the hardest players ever seen in Hammond. Captain Stevens also played a etar game. His drives off tackle were a revelation to the spectators.. Lewis and Goehringer played excellent in the line, and their clever blocking was responsible for one of Hammond's scores. Herbst played his first big game. He took the position at left guard and made a creditable showing. Daugherty played his old, consistent game and made two fine drives off tackle for good gains. He made a touchdown in the first half, but the offiicals did not allow It because Delwood was off side. Schulte at tackle broke through Delwood's line and tackled the runner for big losses. previous, turned on Vermont and swamped the New Englanders, 16 to 0. JEFFRIES TO TRAIN 1 ITS. Alfalfa King Will Go to the Coast as Soon as the Articles Are Simed. INPATIENT OVER THE DELAY Ex-Champion Wants to Clinch Johnson Bout at Once Will Study Films. New York, Oct. 25. Johnson Is on his way east. The meeting between the black and white champions will he worth traveling miles to see. Tt will be a great powwow when they gather around a table to arrange for a fipht that will be the greatest of all ring contests. There is everything about it to make it great. A retired and unbeaten marvel of the ring is to reappear and endeavor to wrest the title from a wonderfully clever negro, who for years has been denied the chance to win the title he now holds. The largest crowd that ever sat around a ring will undoubtedly see the encounter. There will be a small army on hand when the first spike is driven. Jeff seemed against ever talking to Johnson over the preliminary arrangements He seems, however, to have changed his mind. Now he is evidently anxious to have the talk and settle the thing for good. Jeff wants to be up and do ing, ana as soon as tne articles are signed he will kite for the California mountains. Jim depends on this sort of work to fit him for the struggle of his life. Jeff will be an interested spectator when the Ketchel-Johnson pictures are shown today. Jim will be curious to see how the black man worked in his latest championship effort. Johnson was at his best in this fight, and Berger and Jim will sit side by side and pick Johnson's attack and defense to bits. ' Jeffries has serious business on hand, and he knows it. If it were not for l:ie fact that Jeff has been Idle longer than it is safe to be he and his friends would look upon the meeting with Johnson as an exer cise gallop. I-ive years is a mlghty span, and it has caused JeiT many a moment of sobrr thought. Johnson has established himself beyond question. Writers and public alike concede him a dangerous and worthy foe for any man alive. It's to be a wonderful fight. SMITH DENIES STORY. Little Rock, Ark., Oct. 25. W. A.

The blow immediately preceding the punch from Johnson which knocked out Ketchel In their fight at Colma on Oct. 16 which sent Champion Jack Johnson to the polstlon shown In the above photograph, occasioned more after discussion than the result of the fight, as many thought the negro was "faking" the knockdown for the benefit of the moving pictures, in which he has a financial Interest. Both .Ketchel and Johnson assert It was a blow hard enough to secure a knockdown, although delivered on the side of the head.

J found the Milwaukee man so tough an opponent in their recent encounter here. In that match Wolgaat showed that he could swap blows with the Hegewlsch man, and held him to a verdict that was practically even. In the opinion of most sporting experts here. On occount of the late bout having been held before Tom McCarey's club, which is inside the city limits, and where no decision can be rendered, there was some difference of opinion. Some claimed that Nelson had all the better of the go, while others insisted that Wolgast had shown more aggressiveness. On this account It seems as If there was likely to be another meetj ing here. In case the bout is arranged It may be outside the city limits and Just opposite the Arcadia race track. If litigation over the ownership of the Ver non arena is settled, the match may be held In the arena formerly owned bv Jim Jeffries.
