Veteran Champion Too Good A Boxer For Chicago's Lightweight

PHILADELPHIA. Nov. 23. Benny Leonard, lightweight king-, in his first ilng tet In five months, last night utpointed Sailor Krofdman, rugged nd willing Chicago lightweight, over he eight-round route at the lee Palace. A crowd of 7. .100 rersons saw it . Leonard won fiv? of the eight stormy "ssions, two rounds roingr to Kreedi.iati tni on' was even. The champion staggered Krffdman Just .before the hell sounding the close . f the second round, hnt failed to finish' him after having' him a bit wobbly. Freedman proved a worthy foe for the title holder. Slow in starting, the Sailor finished like a gale at sea. had the champion en the run at the close f the eighth round and mans- of the - ingside spectators figured th Chicago challenger had a good chance to fain the verdict Sn a. longer bout. BESXrS LEAD EARNS VERDICT. Leonard's early lead enabled him to ea!n the verdict. The champion carried the first four rounds before Freedman seemed able to reach him with any telling punches. The Chicagoan's best rounds were the fifth and the eight, which he won by coroforMMe margins. Leonard shook up Freedman twice. The first stinging punch he landed on fhe Sailor care In the second round, when he connoted wih his left and crossed his right. This punch had the Sailor backing away and a bit wobbly, though not in distress, as the bell sounded for the close of the ses-

ST. LOUIS. Mo., Xov. S3. In one of the rawest decisions ever given in any ring Johnny ("Pewee") Kaiser of St. Louis last night was awarded a victory over Pal Moore of Chicago after twelve rounds of fierce fighting. The decision of Harry Sharpe climaxed a bad evening for the referee. It was his third mistake ani he was continually hooted by the fans. Unbiased spectators with their noses in the rosin declared a draw was the worst that should have been given Mso;e.

FRIARS VS. GOPHERS ON TURKEY DAY

rSEC:l TO THE TIMES! EITI.0, IXD.. Nov. 2 3 A football same which in all probability will be written in the sporting- annals as one of the greatest exhibitions of the gridiron game will be played on Thanksgiving day on Forsyth field located at the corner of Sheffield ave. and Indiana Elvd., at 2 p. m. The atrong East Chicago Gophers, for the past three seasons, northern Indiana middleweight champions, will furnish the opposition for the local Friar eleven

Curing the r.ist eight years of football the Gophers have hung up the enviable record -f .1 vvin. 4 defeats ami one tie game, one of their oereats came early this year, when the Cornell A. C of Chicago, put over a 1:1-7 win. With the few regulars and the subs who particpated in the Crown Point game going through the fracas with no serious injuries, Coach Hart of the Friars will be able to present his strongest lineup when the starting whistle blows. Cross and Bond who have been nursing lame shoulders since the Valparaiso game, mo again in the best, of condition as is r.e scrappy little guard. M. O'Fatt. who has been out of the game on account of a bad ankle. The Friars at present is the only undefeated rrTMVwe!ght team in this region. In seven starts they have chalked up six wins and one tie game. From the pep displayed in the Friars camp this past week the Gophers will have tr.ore than they can handle and ara in for another bebating. "Word has come from F.ast Chicago that the Gophers hold the Friars in high esteem and are holding a fear that they will be the loser of Lake county's greatest classic in the n-iar-Gopher game. A number of college stars have been imported to bolster up their scjuati and it is figured they will go heavily irf debt to keep their ancient rivals from putting over a win.

Scatenas In Action.

The Karamond Scater.as will Jump into action Thankag'.ving day at the high achool field. The opposing team will be the Englewood Cresents who were supposed to have played here last Saturday. The Crescents will come to town Thursdays with a lineup of stars from various colleges of the Mid-West. They have former players from Iyola, Del'aul .hake Forest and IePauw. They have wen all of their games this year in the cup ri.ee and will push the Scatenas to all the football they know. The Scatenas have been practicing faithfully for this gam - an 1 especially for the East Chicago Gopher ;ame Sunday at East Chicago. " The Scatenas must win both ct these frames before they hook up with the Pullman A. C. in Chicago for fhe championship of the Mid-Yo:st League. Thrc. has

been a decided imnrrtveent in the

team work of the Scatenas) as they have put more vigor and pep in their practice. , Thurnday's game will be an adied attiaetion to the people of Hammond as the Crescents are coming out here with the intention of running Into sot. 10 crapes. The Scatenas have realized the ndv.mtag of over-confidence and will be out to add another scalp to their belt. Pon t forget the big pep dance Saturday night before the game at the Ofpheum hall.

Gleascn Field to be Scene of

Memorable Struggle Tomorrow Afternoon BT SPIKE. Gleason Field In 'Gary, considered one of tho finest athletic enclosures in the middle west, will he the scene of a bitter pigskin struggle tomorrow afternoon. Thanksgiving Day. that will go down Into the annals of football history of this district. Lined up at battle will be th noted Hammond Professionals under the ownership of "Doc" Alva Toung ana the crack Gary Klks all stars under the managership of Ernie Bayton. Gary sport king, and Jack Gllroy. athletic director of the Gary school system . Ancient rivals In the past, Gary and Hammond will clash for the s teenth time tomorrow afternoon to determine the professional gridiron supremacy of the state and part of the middle west. Old timers will recall the bitter football games of the years gone by and there is little question but what tomorrow's clash will outrival those that have gone down in history. There are but a few but what would miss their turkey feed for it. Those who remeber last year's game, saw Gary slip ever a forward perfectly manipulated forward pass and win the game in the lart few minutes of play after Hammond had the game practically sewed up S-? having scored a place kick earlier in the fray. Hammond still remembers this defeat and say they are goin to fight all the harder to regain the lost laurels. According to .lopstcrs, Hammond and the Elks will go into tho game almost on even t'-'ims. Hammond has lost but two battles this season and these two were administered by two of the best professional aggregations In the professional ranks. The Priscl Cardinals .snatched a victory away from the Hammondi tea by one touchdown while the Green Bay Packers slipped over a win with a 14-3 score after plugging up their lin-. On the other hand G-ry h.3s lost but ono game this fall. Gary had on off day that Sunday and let the Amos A. A. aggregation of Chicago slide home wtih a 14-7 score. Up until this g-ame Gary led tho Chicago Mid-West league, defeating the tcp-notchers of the clr cuit who had trimmed the Amos A. A. bunch by big scores. They refused to give the Elks a return game under any conditions. Both Hammond and Gary have trained hard for the Turkey Day fray and' up to this hour both camps are confident of slipping over a victory Hammond has a coteie of famed football tsars who rank high in the middle western professional fame this season having held the Canton Bulldogs 7-7 and considered the strongeat team in the Ohio State. While, the Elks have not hooked up with the hXfhly reputed teams that Hammond has this season they have rimmed the best of tho Chicago midwest league and seek new laurels when they try to take Hammond tomorrow. Much of thei.- future depends up their sh-.wing against their eld rivals tomorrow.

Your Ford Deserves a Willard

Because so much unusual performance is expected from a Ford, the wise driver is never satisfied with a battery of anything less than Willard Quality and there's no need to be satisfied with less. Because there's a genuine Willard Battery made in Ford Size and it sells at a surprisingly low price. Willard Batteries have for years had a reputation as high-quality batteries and today they're better than ever. Willard plates are extra rigid to prevent warping active material is hard, to stand the jolt and jar of service on shortwheelbase cars. There are dozens of perfections and refinements made possible by Willard's long experience. And this is the kind of battery you need for your Ford, at a price that you would pay for much less quality! The Still-Better Willard and the Even-Better-Than-That Willard There are, in addition, two other types the Willard Threaded Rubber Battery and the Willard All-Rubber Battery which for a very few dollars more give you all the super-quality that goes into batteries for the higher priced cars.

And these super-batteries are not too good for the Ford. You'll say so when you get the prices. The Willard Threaded Rubber Battery. That's the battery used as standard original equipment by the builders of 188 makes of cars and trucks, who believe that battery insulation is important. For a slight additional first cost you are freed of later re-insulation expense. The Willard All-Rubber Battery. Rubber inside Rubber outside. Plates are protected by Threaded Rubber Insulation. Has Monobloc (one piece) Rubber Container, in which sides, partitions and bottom are a solid piece of leakproof, damp-proof, acid-proof rubber. The small additional cost fades away when you think of the satisfaction of having a Willard All-Rubber Battery. If your battery shows signs of weakening, begin to investigate the Willard Battery right now. Ask some of your friends who have Willard Batteries on Fords and on larger cars what they think about them. Come in! It's a safe bet you'll be agreeably surprised when you find WHAT THE PRICES ARE.
