SEASON'S SUCCESS HANGS ON GAME Hammond Must Defeat Toledo Tomorrow to Keep Title to Honors Clear.

YOUNGER RIVAL HAS EDGE OVER

!!-immond'9 success In the 1919 football jufnn ele.petwls upon the trouncing of the Toledo Marucna tomorro-w. This is the dlrr-'t opinion expressed by the. football enthusiasts around Hammond "s ivcek. At no time in recent years t footba.ll attracted the attention of tvCni farul. rn as this sejvson. This is r..oro than likely due to the fact that Parduhn's eleven has battled airainst the best in the country and also because of lhn professional staridms for the United States chiunnlonsh.tr. The Hammond tevun, should It. lose against Toledo, will have a cla.tn tv second place In the finals. If the stars fulfill its prediction of winning, they will be tied with Canton for the top position and the Turkey Day contest will de i le all the future arguments for this winter. Hammond's claims and hopes for a victory orer the much-touted Toledo outfit were Riven added hop when It was officially announced yesterday that tha famous Paddy Drlscoll would bi pe.en in a Hammond uniform against the v'.sitor3. The former Northwestern star, v.ho has been assisting Coach liachman at the Kvarfton institution this season, is in great shape for the game which Is mainly dim to the fact that Paddy has had thi (rrid top? on every day this season, in which the freshmen and varsity were shown some rough ways of gro.d football. Acting Coach Ghee lined up the squad of twenty-three players yesterday evening tn thi final lone practice session of tho wek before the btir came. Everything ran as smoothly as one might hope for and Ghee was pl'ased with the style of play the. eleven regulars showed against the many stars who warm the bench each Sunday. PriscoII performed at the right half station and tore off some, beautiful Ions: runs. This leads to the belief that Ghee will stick to the o.uarterba -k position with Wytr.an, Howard and Priscoll to assist tha latter "when the contest opens up. Barrett. Falcon. Bergman and Kiesler will also be ready Captain Pes Jp.rdiens. the first string center, and Rydiewski. the great tackle, are still incapacitated with slight injuries they received in the Canton game nnd will in all probabilities sit on the b',nch Sunday Blocker will not doubt taJte the big Frenchman's place, whlia He-usler will go in for the Pole Judging by the way Huvsler has performed in practice sessions this week, it looks ltk lie will be able to till In at P.ydiew&ki's station in neat style The Toledo team has a very heavy outfit, and it is said that their line is unbreakable If that bo true, the locals will resort to the air game from tha s'art and this no doubt will upset the visitors, whl will not know where to expect a pass Word comes from Toledo that the Haroons have been drilled all week in breaking up the overhead tyle of play which Indicates that the Ohioans know that the parses are to be uncorked vhenever practicable The Maroon line-up is as follows: Ieft end, Baxter or Hackett; left tackle. Pehulte; left guard. Schrelle; center, Welap: right guard. Mauder; right tackle, P.rown; right end. I,utz; quarterback. Marshall; left half. Purdy; right half. Xietzke; fuHhac-k. Wbalen The team has nine suhs who can fill in handily amongst them being Miller of Notre Dame, Nichols. Ir.wn; Trungtiist. Ohio Seaman: Pittsburgh MeCiean. and Gayen of Camp Custer A telegram received this morning by Pardwhr. said that Toledo would arrive in Chicago this afternoon The visitors will stop at the Sherman House and will have their workout before the game at Pta gg field Sunday morning

ROCK ISLANDS WIN OVER CLABBYS 47-0 Br a rAK. The strong Rxck Island Independents defeated the Olabby A. A of Hammond 40-0. Although outweighed and outplayed, the CUboys put up ft hard fight. Only onco in the third Quarter did Hammond look dangerous. A 30-yari run by Hess brought the oval within tight yards of the goal. Then the Independents held for downs. Chicken, Henry, Hovey and Fitzgerald played a wonderful game, while Heas. Warna, Voikman and Searles played good for Hajnmond. Although the Independents were beaten by the Hammond All Stars early in the season 13-7, ivra have, plenty of Money to bet that our team will beat them If they play again.

N 9,000 Fans Pay $40,000 To See Topnotch Middleweights Battle. By BAM P. EAlXk ST. PAIU Minn. Nov. 22. The Phantom is elusive no longer. Mike Gibbons, at thirty-two. got his first crack at the middleweight championship !ajtt night and fifteen years of battling on the resin told the tale d defeat lor Mm. Mike O'Dowd. the title holder, proved his right to the crown by catching up with what waj once a boxing will 'o the wisp and cutching up with him often. O Dowd deserved the populnr verdict over Gil'bons after ten earnest bloddy rounds, which had .a 140.000 crowd of P 000 (eopl yelling madly when th milling waxed furious, which it frequently did The outcome was a big surprise to S4. Paul and folks hereabouts, who had been betting freely at 10 to T the ancient Phantom would shade the fighting harp. Gibbons did not lose by a male or anything like that. He was close up all the way, but the bulling, rushing, mautin? tactics of OIXvvd kept him on the run at numerous stages and with the hitting about even, which it was not, he Hary Fti'.l would have had the edge on aggressiveness. HAJfO- WXEATH ON GIBBONS. They brought a wre-ath into the ring before the fight and hung it on Gibbons' shoulders. On it was an Inscription. "The New Champicn." After the fight some one paid it would make a pretty floral tribute for the Gibbons' boxing v aJte. The champion, whose right to the honors Iuls been questioned ever sine he knocked cut Al McCoy for It in a suspicious encounter in Brooklyn, is credited with being the real boss of the middles today. He beat Gibbons, which is going some, even though the Phantom is slipping, What Is more, he be.t him at the clasa limit, lit pounds, reithcr man moving the beam at that ugure just before they entert-d the ring. O'Powd fought Gibbons the right way. by bulling him. The Phantom does not like that style and the Harp knew it. O'Powd was unusually rough in spots and frequently was warned for butting. Gibbons sustained a cut in the left eye winker in the third round which proved a handicap to him the rest of the way. He claimed O'Powd tmtted him thera, while the Harp alleged he caused the damage with a right rock. OtBBONS CX.ATMJS BBOXZB XAJTXK O'Powd kept the gore simply pouring from that cut. and the Phantom wa-s unable to see out of it at times. In desperation he used Referee Curley VIrich's shirt to wipe oft the blood. He did this time and again while coming out of clinehs. O'Powd made no holler, but the crowd did not like these tactics. The Harp had the privilege of pasting Gibbon while he was thus engaged, but didn't. CO. A SCORES NEW WIN By slashing play.
