Madden, tied for individual honors, (above left) and Ellis, former Wabash star, clearing the bar in the high jump. The track and field meet, held recently at Fort Benjamin Harrisin, Ind., produced plenty of thrills for the spectators and hot competition for ajl participants. Madden, former Princeton star, was tied with Campbell, a Purdue graduate, for the individual honors. Each won two firsts. Every event was well contested by the many college athletes among the young men who are working for commissions in the armj.

side games were taken into consideration, the averages would be considerably higher, for it happened that the hitting in the Chicago Giant game was very heavy.

TO SLEEPJ 3RD Bout in St. Louis Ends With Knockout; Exhibition Is Painful.

i Fight Decisions. 1 Decisions of fight representatives on Monday were: At St. Xionis Fred Fulton knocked ont Jack Morsn. At Flttsborgli Toon? Goldle boat Cal rtelnney (10). At New York Benny Valgar beat Jack Sales (lOj. At Philadelphia 700117 Terry McOotem tcat Joe Borrell (6). At Rochester Bryan Downey beat Johnny Blley (10). At New Orleans Jack Song las beat Arthur Slmcns (15). ' ST. tfOUIS. MO., July li. Fred Fulton, Minnesota giant, so far Outclassed Jack Moran of St. Louis, In their scheduled twelve round ' bout at Federal league park Monday, that It was really painful to the majority of the fifteen hundred spectators to witness the exhltion after the customary "feeling Out" exchanges. When Fulton scored a knockout in the third, the crOwd apparently was relieved. During the first two rounds Fultoh permitted Moran to work to his heart's content in his efforts to Jand effective punches. The northerner did little aggressive work, but protected himself with case from the runches Moran was turning loose. Fulton Blocks Blows. Jack was trying hard, but fighting without and generalship, and virtually all his blows were landing on Fulton's arms or back. In the third round, when the St. Loulsan managed to get home some fairly solid wallops to stomach and body, the Minnesota plasterer decided to becomo a factor In the exhibition, and then turned loose wicked hoks and

upper cuts that traveled only a short distance, but had plenty of steam behind them.

CUBS RELEASE

Jimmy Archer, who only a few years ago was considered the best catcher in the National league, has been given his unconditional release by the Cubs. In order to release him It was necessary to obtain waivers from all club In the league, and no club cared to take him. President Weeghman of the Cubs said Archer had been given an unconditional release, as the club did not wish to dispose of him to a minor league after his long service to the

Cubs. Archer now Is free to sign with

any team.

In the spring Archer, refused to accept the terms offered him by the Cubs and did not make the training trip, but Just before the season opened he came to terms. While with the Cubs this year he was used only as third catcher.

IIM ALUMNI WANT FRESH MAN BAN LIFTED

Revocation of the recent rule of the;

Big Ten conference prohibiting freshmen In colleges and universities from engaging in football during the war period was indorsed by members of the University of Indiana Alumni Association at a luncheon In the Hotel La Salle yesterday afternoon in Chicago. It was pointed out by the various

speakers that a majority of the college j freshmen were too young for war service, and as their contests were for the, benefit of the Red Cross war fund, that

! enforcement of the rule would operate

against the athletic training of the lower classmen, besides robbing the war fund of a considerable sum of money.

TRIANGLES 10, ELKS 8. The Indiana Harbor Triangles defeated the Junior Elks of Hammond by a score of 10-8. The pitching of Steffen and the hitting of Cant and Cohen was a feature. With the bases loaded Cohen soaked a double to right field bringing two runs in. The Triangles although not a fighting team is a scrappy team and the Elks know it. In Sunday's game the Elks' shortstop flew into our second baseman on purpose and opened a dep gsh on .the second baseman's forehead. We ask the Elks to forget
