DELAKEY GIVES COHLEY BEATING 111 TAST BATTLE Kenosha Veteran Outclassed in Ten-Round Bout at Racine.
Racine, Wis., Nov. 8. Cal Delaney tumbled another Badger idol from hU parch last night. Game little Frankie Conley had nothing but his toughness, and the Cleveland Irishman gave him a wicked whaling for ten rounds In the wlndup of John Wagner's all-star featherweight show. Delaney won ev. ery round and gave the Joe Grlm'ot Kenosha almost as severe a trimming as that receiver general ever took in a half hour. But Conley, long accustom, ed to punchings, was on his feet and swinging at the stopping bell. He jumped out of the ring little the worse for wear, except for puffed lips and a ore nose, but looked like a boy who knew well he had taken a lacing. The confident smile he wore. Into the arena was gone. It was easy for Delaney, a much
softer victory than he scored over Matty McCue a week ago Tuesday in
thi itown. Cal won every round after the first by a big margin and had a alight edge In the opener. He quit the
ring after the McCue fight without a
mark, and he repeated last night, mak
ing twenty rounds he has fought in
Racine In les than two weeks without taking a wallop that hurt him
That's going some, and speaks well for the- defense of the KUbane-taught
Turkey.
After the opening round Delaney stepped right out after the veteran Italian and mailed htmfroma t tao
Italian and nailed him from all angles with both hands. He confined most of
his attention to the face, but shifted
to the body occasionally when Conley
tilted his guard. Cal used straight
punches, hooks and uppercuts with great accuracy and must have popped his foe twenty clean punches to a
. round.
Conley stood tip under his beating manfully. But that was all he showed
to win our admiration. We were much
disappointed In his attack. In fact,
his offense was crude. He walked after his man continually with a glove on either side of his Jaw and his body
bent over n a crouch. . But when he
started to hit he had to pull his mitts
back to let fly He was a swinger,
pore and sample, all through, and with
the clever Delaney defense to pens
trate hs was baffled completely. It can be fairly said that hs did not land
three solid punches In the ten rounds,
NEWS OF HAMMOND SCRAPPERS Eddie Clabby. who was to have fought "Kid" Kansas , In Buffalo last night, had to have the bout postponed on account of a severe Injury to his shoulder. The accident happened in his recent contest in MUwaukes with Hal Clarke. Top" Clabby. father of Eddie and Jimmy, said over the phone last night
that Eddie cried when the doctor noti
fied him It would be impossible for Mm " to keep his engagement. Eddie seems to act as a game lad and the Htjffalo piomoters make no mistake in presenting him in their arena.
Although he lost by a slight shade.

was Bishop's opponent, and the former's power to assimilate punishment and his great strength won' him the shade.
This battle, although a preliminary, wns titter all the way and was considered by far the best bout of the evenitif. In the main event Delaney,
who uprising is astounding, defeated Frank lo Conley, who was considered a big factor in the featherweight fight for supremacy.

The Harvard-Princeton game is the feature of the day, as far as the east is concerned. The Crimsons are the favorites on the basis of their excellent record all season, and the fans expect
to see them land the game with flying
colors from the lighter and less polished Princeton aggregation. Princeton hopes to fool the Cambridge defense for scores, and much of the interest of the battle will lie In this angle of the occasion. Princeton's kicking has not been up
to the standard, and the entire attack
has not shown with anything like

Is a Princeton aluminus, and we believe we should cheer for the Tigers in order to show our gratitude. Howsomever, It's going to be some game, with the emphasis on the "some."

Agnew and Sidorsky put the oval across the Texas goal line for a touchdown. The goal was missed.

The goal was missed again.

with a 14 to 3 victory over Rutgers
the Prlncetonians have defeated Ford
ham, 69 to 0 trimmed Bucknell, 28 to 6; beaten Syracuse, 13 to 0,-and Holy
Cross, 54 to 0. The only cloud on the
record is the 6 to 0 defeat by Dart
mouth two weeks ago.
Harvard's consistency is shown b
Its scores. The team has defeated
Maine, 34 to 0; Bates by 14 to 0, Wll
Hams by 23 to 3, Holy Cross by 47 to
7, Penn State by 29 to 0, and Cornell
by 23 to 6. A victory by Harvard will
give the team an unchallenged standing as foremost contender for the title. The Dartmouth-Pennsylvania game at Philadelphia and- the Yale-Brown clash at ew Haven are the only other eastern battles which will attract much attention. Michigan's session at Ithaca will be significant, as the Wolverines want to lick the bis red team by a larger score than Harvard did, but the chance seems small. The victory over Syracuse last Saturday has raised the Maize and Blue stock, and Yost will be tickled if he can get the best of the defeated Ithacans.

Review of Plays Ends Practice for Game With Harvard Today.
Princeton, N. J., Nov. 8. On the eve of the battle with Harvard the Princeton football squad rested quietly in the university field house last night
under the watchful eyes of the coaches and Trainer Keene Fltzpatrlek. The players" work yesterday afternoon was
not hard enough to tire them, but nevertheless the orders to rest were absolute.
Every play the Tigers could possi
bly work on Harvard in the way of an
attack was rehearsed thoroughly yes
terday afternoon. There was no scrimmage. The nearest approach to It was
a snort arm in rorming interference
on the kickoff. In addition to the team
work the coaches took aside Law and Borden, the punters, for some work In
kicking. Captain Baker, came In for a brisk practice at kicking goals from placement and on drops. There Is a decided feeling of optimism prevalent among the students and coaches, and the Harvard money, which Is plentiful at odds varying from 10 to 6 to 4 to 8, Is taken as fast as it is offered.
team's ability to trim Indiana was apparent to the students, although the game is looked upon as a hard, bruis
ing struggle against superior weight. Coach Hawley refused to be optimis
tic, saying the Hawkeyes would be badly outweighed and would have to
in by speed if at all Whether they
can muster this required speed the
coach refused to say. Coach Sheldon cf the Hoosirs has sent word ahead that his men cm defeat the Hawkeyes If they play their game. The Indiana cripples are In the best shape of he year and their victory over Ohio State last Saturday has given them added ambition and confidence.
