Thanksgiving Time Is a good time for you to write those letters that you have been putting off bo long. But don't use a cheap.

shoddy, never-heard-of writing paper that will be an Insult to your friend, rather than a compliment. Use the

paper "Made in Berkshire" by Eaton, Crane & Pike'

This is known everywhere to be the very best .writing paper made. In

quality, style and finish it Is abso

The following communication has

been received at this office relative to the Valpo-East Chicago game:

Valparaiso, Ind.. Nov. 22. Sporting

Editor Times, Hammond, Ind., Dear Sir: In reading over the snortlne nairp

in your edition of yesterday I noticed

some rather misleading: statements

with reference to the East ChicagoValparaiso football game played at Valparaiso on Sunday. I desire to call

your attention to the following misstatements relative to the weights of players, which has been greatly exaggerated. I submit herewith the weights of the Valparaiso players who partici

pated in the game: Stinchfield, end,

160; Ritter, left tackle, 175; Brown,

right guard, 160; Barry (Capt), center.

140; Lenstech, right guard, 155; B.

Meade, right tackle, 158; Gardner, right

end, 154; Simpson, quarter back, 150; McNiece, left half back, 155: Johnson.

full back, 180; H. Mead, right half back.

176.

Taking the East Chicago weights as given in your columns of yesterday it will be seen that the Valpo team outwighed the East Chicago team about fifteen pounds to the man. I will venture the assertion, however, that the East Chicago players must have done some tall reducing from the time of the game to the time their weights were submitted to your paper. Regard

ing the officials, I admit that one of them did not appear at his best, as was also admitted by several of the. East Chicago players. Practically all the penalties that were inflicted were made in East Chicago's favor. Would also add that said official was from East Chicago and was furnished by that team. Trusting that you will make these corrections through your paper and thanking you for so doing, I am respectfully yours, H. R. ENRIOHT, Coach Valpo Tigers.

HACK SIGNS TO WRESTLE WE STERG-AARD George Hackenschmidt, the "Russian Lion,", has been matched to wrestle Jess Westergaard of Des Moines. Iowa, In a

finish bout in Chicago Dec. 6. The match will be under the auspices of the Empire Athletic club and will be staged in the Coliseum. The club officials had considerable trouble In arranging for an opponent for the "Lion." Few of the heavyweights seemed to want to, take him on, but when terms were offered the big Iowa man he did not hesitate long. Westergaard has been bothered for some time with a bad knee, the injury

being the result of his match at the Coliseum with Zbyszko last spring. The Swedish star submitted to an operation three months ago and seems to feel no ill effects from the injury.

The club will support the contest! with an all-star card, one bout of

which already is clinched. The "Mysterious Conductor" and Paul Martinson will wrestle for the heavyweight championship of the city railways, and the winner wilfr be prepared to accept challenges from carmen all over the coun

try. Young Miller of St. Paul, claim

ant of the welterweight title, also will

be seen, as wil Leo Pardello and Charley Cutler.

fiiOBi 8AGKE3 AT EVEN MONEY TO JrHP flELSON

Dane, Believed to Be Below

Weight But Shuns the Scales. San Francisco, Cal., Nov. 23. Battling Nelson's sudden aversion to weighing machines has led to a report in fight circles that all Is not well with

the former champion's avoirdupois. Close students of the game who have watched Nelson at work declare his aversion to the scales is not because

he Is heavier than he should be at this '

stage of his training. On the contrary,! they all agree that he is lighter than! he was when he entered the ring with Antone Lagrave in their recent fifteenround bout. At that time Nelson officially gave his weight at 133 pounds. Nelson is unquestionably undergoing a rigorous training for the little Englishman, and it isn't at all unlikely that he is under the 133-pound mark right now. It can be said, however, that this is not apparently worrying the Dane. Yesterday he boxed five rounds each with his sparring partners, did a road Marathon and spent fully two hours at gymnasium work. While the Battler was being rubbed down after his road work some one asked him about his chances with Moran. "Oh, you can never tell how it will end," said he. "I've handed many a boy a lacing. I've sent them to the medi

cine men for repairs. Who knows but what Moran may lay me up? But I advise you to have a little bet down that he doesnt." Nelson appears in much better shape in every way than when he met Lagrave. His aim is truer, he Is faster and there is a decided improvement In his wind. That Moran's retainers are confident their boy will put Nelson away is ap

parent from the betting. With the

mill less than four days off Moran ad

mirers are offering even money that the Englishman will win. He is certainly in fine condition, and will put up the fight of his life. Speculation on the event became

quite brisk at Tom Corbett's today at even money and take your choioe.

AVIATOR'S DEATH NOT DUE TO CARELESSNESS

Mechanician Says Machine

Was in Perfect Order Before Flight.

Denver, Nov. 23. "The accident which resulted in Ralph Johnstone's

death at Overland park," said mechanl

clan T. C. Eichstadt esteray, "was not

uue lu any ictuii. ui me macnine. um

ers have had their say, and I want to

declare that all reports about careless ness are untrue.

"The machine was in A-l condition

before It was tfcken from the tent

Johnstone himself supervised the ex

amination, even standing on the wings

to make sure that they were in good

condition.

. "I had been with Johnstone for eight weeks. There never was a man so careful as he to see that the machinery

was in proper condition before a

flight."

Eichstadt then described several of

the accidents Johnstone had met previous to the one that resulted fatally.

"In St. Louis" he said, "he was injured through making a shirt spiral similar to the one he tried when he was killed. The machine fell seventy-

five feet and was crumpled, both of Johnstone's ankles and wrists being

sprained."

WHITE SCENTS

EASY VICTORY

Los Angeles, Cal., Nov. 23. Charley

White, the Chicago featherweight, is so sure of winning from Danny Web

ster in their twenty round affair at

Vernon on Thanksgiving afternoon

mat he is already planning to take on

Frankle Conley and Abe Attll in the next two months.

White is in splendid shape, and prac

tically concluded his training yester

day.

Webster knocked off boxing yester

day afternoon, and did nothing but

light exercise.

"I never felt better in my life and

should give a good account of myself

at 122 pounds," said Danny today. "I

expect to win inside of fifteen rounds."

At sporting headquarters White is still a strong favorite at odds of 8 to

10. Considerable money is being wagered at these odds, with plenty of tak

ers for the Webster end.
