The Hammond Scatenas and the nous "Whiting: Friars will sound ?s on the gridiron game locally len the two teams clash at Forthe Field tomorrow afternoon In contest that will eliminate one im from battling- for the Midwest ampionshlp the following Sunday Chicago. Both elevens- have en potent factors for the Cermak phy th;s year. -The rivalry that ists between the two towna will - forgotten for one day. The iars and Scatenas are going to iy the brand of football that has ide both teams famous in the past d nothing will mare the game being the most interesting of e present pigskin season. The Whiting field, which is loted at Robertadale's four corners, s attracted many big crowds to e games that have been played ere, but the crowd that will see morrow's contest will out do all hers. Several hundred fans are ming from Fast Chicago. A large legation is also booked from Gary, d the final curtain on Old Man

otball wlil be played before a presentative Lake county crowd. Coach Milligan. who formerly lyed with Pine Village and who sYill a mighty performer on the idlron, has one of the heaviest vens in the history of the famous I town. And he also has a team iich is composed In the main of le-an players who have learned ? game at different college lnstilions. With a line which averages 1" unds from one win? to the other, d a bacltfield which averages 165. e Whiting eleven Is equal in size the average heavyweight team, e of the mam factors In the iars' makeup is the rpeed which eU represented in the fiery back :d. It is said of the Whiting club at they are the best coached team two states. This is a great deal praise for the Whiting mentor, '.'I the fact that Milllgan's men .-re able to defeat tbe East Chi1'odgers twice while Hammond jt to the same team a-guea well : the Oil City crew. Vhe Scatenas. somewhat crippled fcy three successive games in a eU, in which they lost tied and will be out with the same old r.;ing spirit. It will be a bruised ,un that v.i l face Whiting, but , ..-iri-ii ion of home players that

Morrie Johnson of Roseland, who was scheduled to oppose Georgle Verner. the Harbor welterweight, at the Harbor Auditorium last evening, pulled a trick on the management and patrons of the show that lost him many friends. After notifying the management that he would positively be on dock. at 7.30 r. m., Johnson disappointed over eight hundred fight fans by failing to put In an appearance. To maka matters worse, he wasn't even man enough to notify them. As a result there was some tall last minute scratching to dig up a substitute. Ted Peters, a tough South Chicago welter with considerable experience, was luckily secured. Fans who were disappointed at Johnson's non-appearance were agreeably surprised when Peters stepped into the ring and gave Georgie Verner the tight of his young life. After eight furious rounds, featured by heavy hitting, there was little to choose between the men. Each won one round and the other six were even. Verner showed fans that he Is there as a comer. With Clabby In his corner, the Harbor welter displayed the fistic art that he Is fast learning the Hammond master's stuff. Georgie is a willing worker In the ring and the fans showed their apprecaitlon of his fight against his more experienced opponent. The first bout of the evening between Frankie Johnson of Cincinnati and Toung Rocco of the Harbor was a dandy. Both were so anxious to annihilate the other that they often went to the floor from their own efforts. At the end of four rounds the honors were even. In the second bout 'Battling" Scripps of East . Chicago rocked Young Trimble of the stock yards to sleep In the second round with a

all Hammond can feel proud of. The Scatenas have stayed at home all season In spite of the fact that received large offers to travel. This will b tfce first game out of town, but In a true sens It Is really In our own city as dear Robertsdale still has its orders circulated from Hammond. Quarterback Gearing, who has

shown good form all season will

probably be out of the lineup. The former hijrh school star has an in

jured rib which he received In the

tilt against the Steger Tigers. Shanks may take his place at calling signals. The addition of Seliger and Oltz. two of the best linemen that Hammond has turned out in years, will give the Scatenas a good chance of showing I-ake county fans as to who Is who In Lake county football circles. Hammond Is not stacking for the contest. The Whiting management Is well aware that Seltger and Oltz are to play and has given his consent in order that the local team may be represented by Its true strength. The two regular tackles are on the crippled list and our friend Oscar from Whiting has once more shown his sporting colors. Sunday's game will be a corker, and those that miss the season's classic will ever regret It. Boys under 16 years of age will be admitted to the bleachers at half price, the regular price being 05c. Let's go Hammond, follow a home team as you do In your own back yard. All roads will lead to Robertsdale tomorrow. Kick-off at C:30 sharp.

viciuus uppercut square on the button. In the third bout "KW" Hptirksthe tali cyclone of Whiting, made a chopping block of Ywtmsr Uarry at Stislitz Park. The only time Harry touched Sporks v.-as at the upeniiig of tho bout. Barry was greatly handicapped by his cake-eater hair, which fell almost to his shoulders. The referee pulled ths curtain down on Mr. Barry when it became apparent that ho was about to lose his nose. All In all, it was a good fight card, even without Mr. Johnson. Many fans were heard to remark after the bill was over that Johnson was probably afraid to box Verner. Without a doubt, his little trick has killed htm for a card in this district with both managers and the public.

Freddie Brenman, who ran the fights Is to be complimented on the manner In which the bouts were conducted. Ills next show will without a doubt pack the house a everyone was satisfied with the efforts of the management to please the public In the faco of the la&t minute; trick pulled by Johnson.

COLONIALS MEET GARY BOOSTERS NEXT WEDNESDAY Fourth Game Promises Unusual Rivalry Of Gary and Hammond Factions.

!S CROWN POUT

MUCH TALK OVER CLABBY-

ROCCO BOUT

Taking a change of venue, as It were from the Junior to the Senior class of boxing. Patsy Rocco, East Chicago's prize welterweight, will make his real debut Into professional rlngwork when he faces Jimmy Clabby, Hammond's two-champion fighter in a ten-round bout at the Harbor Auditorium theater, Dec. 18. This match is viewed with much complacency by fans and admirers of the two local contenders both of whom are widely known In the Calumet Region and particularly In this district. It would be hard to

choose a more popular pair that

fans would appreciate and respect their fighting ability as well. In point of ring service as well

as In years, Jimmy Clabby Is older

than his young opponent. With Rocco there is strength, endurance, punch and youth while with Clabby there Is extra weight, cleverness, generalship and experience. The qualifications of both fighters are sufficient to make one of the most brilliant boxing exhibitions In fistic manoeuvring ever shown here. As preliminaries to this card are Mickey Angelo of the General American Tank Car Corp., with "Sruffle" Callahan in six rounds; Peter Carres of Gary vs. Toung Gollltts. of the Cherokee A. C. of . South Chicago; "Cupie" Trimble, East Chicago's favorite bantam with "Scrap Iron" Unger of the Pullman A. C.'s In tea rounds.

Wellman. Ilubinger, the Sibley brothers, and other famed Gary basket ball athletes, will furnish the opposition for the. Colonials

next Wfdensday evening in the regular weekly basket ball game at the Masonic Temple. This, the fourth big contest to be played in the huge auditorium. Is one in which the usual Gary-Ilamnmnd rivalry is sure to be revived, for no matter what the pastime be'. If it Is one wherein Gary meets Hammond, the far flies. The Boosters made an enviable record last year, playing under the banner of the Gary "T" Boosters. Traveling to Michigan City, they administered the worst drubbing to the Michigan City Y. M. C. A. team that the home five received during the entire season, the score being 2i to 15. The lost by a single goal to the' McFadden Five, SO to 28. The McFadden team included Don Shelton, Smith and Scott, now with the Cololnals, also "Beanie" Harris and Veenker. The Booster Five which the Colonials are to meet on Wednesday evening will undoubtedly be the strongest basket ball team Gary can muster. The Sibley boys are brilliant cage performers, becoming well known while playing on the Emerson high school team under the tutelage of Jack Gllroy. Thorhpson and Siielton will perform at the forward positions for the Colonials Wednesday. It's Thompson's turn to star, for Shelton. Halladay and Smith have turned out some stellar acts on the court even this early and Mac is bound to l.ave his night. The long boy has been a little slow in rounding into his best form for the indoor game, but each succeeding contest lias shown him in an improved condition. Thompson has been for many years, and still is. one of the niftiest basket ball players of which our city boasts. He's been a member of every team taking leading rank In town for about a

dozen years and he still cavorts i

among the newcomers with equal cunning and skill, for with all his experience he is not yet aged. "Death" Halladay, the flghtingest player that ever stepped on a local basket ball court, will play center. Captain "Death" keeps up an almost Inaudible chatter throughout the playing periods, demanding everything but being satisfied with what he gets in most cases. He Is a new and Interesting type. Johnnie Hurlburt. teammate of Halladay at the University of Chicago last year, or Wilfrid Smith, former DePanw player. wi:i hold the floor guarding Job. Smith is the greater in individual performances, while Hurlburt make, the outfit more effective in the passing game; that opinion, however, is based solely upon the single contest In which both the fellows participated. Scottic plays the other position, to date unrivaled. His work is continuously of the satisfactory type.

Hr SPORT WRIGHT tSFEICIAI. TO THE TIMES' WHITING, J no.. Dc. y. Csing a short passing attack to great advantage In the- first half. Whiting High won her third straight victory by lacing Crown Tolnt. 30 to 14- The offense of the Oil City gang worker with machine-like precision and had the Hub City boys' defense completely outguessed. Am Crown Ponit had beaten M-.ch teams as Lacrosse, Lowell and Froebel in decisive fashion, the victory of the Whitingites augurs well for the future. Coach Hart injected many substitute;? during the melee and all showed to good advantage. The county seat net artists fought hard all the way but they were simply outclassed. Captain "Irish" Dwan was the outstanding performer of the pame. He showed an uncanny eye for the; basket and also played a hangup floor game. Joe Duffalo was not far behind the doughy Whiting leader in brilliancy. He sank four field goals and lead tho offenae in fine fashion. Doc Dewey, Joe Kopeha and Ixu1e Riffer also performed In scintillating style. The second team took the visitors' reserves into camp to the tune of

Iast Tuesday evening All Saints' hall was the scene of one of the most excttinp cames that All faints' Shamrocks will ever be able to show their followers. Thrill followed thrill, tied score followed tied score throughout a game that was forced Into three extra five-minute periods. Marquette K. of C. sent out a mighty g'oo, team but they soon saw thst they were up against a tam that vai bound to make them go the limit; and the fact that Marquette was held down to eigrht baskets and two free throws durinsr thp la&t 35 minutes of such stubborn attacks and gruelling paces showed that the Shan-rock guards knew Just how far the Marquette limit extended. With the score of 11 to 3 against them at the end of the first half, the Shamrocks started th- second half by ensineeriris an attack headed by Kalina, Uoolin and Kbcrle and backed up by Chandler.
