THE TIMES September 29, 1917.

GOPHERS TO PUT BIG MATCH

Ths East Chicago Gophers, Idols of Twin City football fans, will bo put to a riid test tomorrow afternoon when they lined up against Jerry Houle's Cornell A. C.'s. champions of the Chicago Independent league, at the East Chicago athletic field. It will be remembered that these teams met last season with an 0 to 0 score as the result. Houle believes that he has gathered together the strongest eleven In the history of his club and is not disguising the fact that he looks for a victory over the local lads. On the other hand, however. Bob Barrow, who captains the Gophers, wears his usual complacent smile. In speaking of the coming contest Parrow said: "The Chicago champions will have to play a wonderful brand of football to defeat us." Pursuant to his usual method the Gopher captain will not announce hia I lineup until game time.

The big contest which will start promptly at 2:30 will be preceded by a game between the Gopher Juniors and the Whiting A. A. An official of the Chicago football league will referee the main attraction.

First base in the world's series will be cared for by two of the smartest players in the game but it looks like Holke of the Giants has an edge on Gandil of the White Sox. Holke is a more dangerous hitter than Gandil and though a youngster of much less experience he is considered the best fielder of the two. But Gandil has been a life-saver to the W"hite Sox through the past season -when they were in woeful need of a good first-sacker.

Hammond golfers Interested in the ladies charrfpionship series were rather surprised in the reversal of form shown

by Mrs. V. Pyer, the club women champion, yesterday when Mrs. AV. D. Patton, for several years n strong contender for the championship, was a winner of her match with Mrs. Dyer in the semi-finals. Mrs. Patton started In

by taking the first seven holes in businesslike fashion and when the champion recovered her stride she was up a fearful uphill fight. Miss Marion Deming. who has also made great strides in her game In the rast two years, defeated Mrs. H. M. Johnson, who was also champion for two years, and will rieet Mrs. Patton in the finals on Friday night. The result yesterday makes the big 3-year thrpphy much more desirable than evor and it has been striven for now six years without one player getting her

name on it more than twice. This year another new name will go on it.

NEW TORIC. Sept. 29. Billy Miske last night outfought Carl Morris in a ten-round tight. Morris had forty pounds the best of it in weight, and this was all that prevented Miske from knocking out the Oklahoma giant. Miske

swung right and left to the body and !

jaw and had the giant weary, but he was too powerful to drop. From the beginning of the first round Miske went at Morris and had him clinching many

times during the bout. A few times

Morris showed some ability and tried to get at his smaller opponent, but the latter always stepped out of danger.
