No Injuries and No Wrangling
During the Battle.
Norman, Okla., Oct. SI. Arkansas
and Oklahoma struggled to the last
minute In a football game here Fri
day, the result of which was In favor
of Oklahoma by & score of 17 to E.
According to score the Sooners had an
easy time In winning, but the Razor-
backs were in the game every minute
for the Sooners.
After seven minutes of play. Mil
ford, star of .the Arkansas right half
back, ran twenty yards for the first
touchdown of the game. It seemed
then that Oklahoma was completely
outclassed, but the Sooners woke up
and In a few minutes they had tied the
Bcore. During the first half Oklahoma
made nine points and Arkansas five. '
The ball was In Oklahoma's territory
most of the half and the Razorbacks
played better ball, but in the second
half Arkansas weakened and Okla
homa took advantage of this and run
the score to 27 points.
No changes were made for the sec
ond half In either team. Key Wolfe
said at the beginning of that half that
the Sooners would win the game
easily, while Captain Nelson doubted
this statement. During the entire
game the Sooners worked the for
ward pass to great effect, while
Arkansas failed almost every at
tempt. The game started at 4 o'clock and
Armstrong kicked to Hlckson, who re
turned It twenty yards. Oklahoma
was penalized for holding. After a
few gains by the Racorbacks, Milford
ran for a touchdown. Fleming
failed at goal kick. Capshaw made
several long runs, then English re
ceived a forward pass and ran thirty
yards for Oklahoma's first touchdown,
Armstrong failing to kick goal. Cap
shaw got away for forty yards, but
was called back. Next play he got
forty more and was downed by Sparks
on the two-yard line. Oklahoma
fumbled the ball and Arkansas
kicked.
At the beginning of the second half
Oklahoma worked its way down to Ar
kansas' 20 yard line and Armstrong
made goal by a place kick. "Wantland
and Capshaw made runs of 40 yards at
thos tome. Cheekmore want in at quir-1
terback In place of Sparks and Arkan
sas played much better ball. Pickard
ran 15 yards and Capshaw plunged the
line for a touchdown. Armstrong kick
ed goal. Armstrong made a touchdown
after the Sooners had worked their way
down the field. Roberts took Capshaw's
place at right half. Wantland ran 30
yards for a touchdown. Final score, 27
to 6. .
There were no Injuries In -the game
and no wrangling. The Razorbacks will
leave this noon for Austin, ' Texas,
where they will meet the Longhorns of4

Its feet in the first half, the William
Jewell squad won the game here Fri
day by a score of 28 to 0.
The entire score was made In the
first half. William Jewell had a series
of formations that seemed to com
pletely baffle the visitors. In the sec
ond half the Kansas team came back
strong and held the locals from scor
ing. Long runs were made by Dough
erty and Baker, the best being a 85-

TWO BIG GAMES FOR GOTHAM.
Georgetown and Dartmouth to Play
in New York.
New Tork, Oct. 31. New York
will get Its only real taste of football
this fall next week. This will be the
game between Fordham and George
town at American league park on
election day, Tuesday, , November 3,
and the Saturday game at the Polo
grounds between Princeton and
Dartmouth.
This game promises to be the real
big event of the year, as Dartmouth
has always been a thorn in the side
of Princeton, and the little team from
New Hampshire has been making a
good record so far this season. The
same cannot be said of Princeton.
Fordham has coma to the front
rapidly this year, their defeat of Am
herst and the good showing against
Princeton giving them great prestige
for a minor school. Georgetown has
one of the strongest teams in years,
and the battle between the two on
election day is sure to be a hard one.
Sallna 24, Minneapolis 10.
Salina. Kan., Oct. 31. Minneapolis
was defeated here by tne local high
school team by a score of 24 to 10.
The visitors were completely out
classed. Quincy's spectacular playing
was the feature of the game. Lee and
Jackson starred for the visitors.

LITTLE CHANGE IX WHITE SOX
Most of the Old Veterans Will Be on
ttte Firing Line in April.
Chicago, 111., Oct. 31. President
Comiskey of the White box win re
turn today with the party of nim
rods he took to the Wisconsin wilds
two weeks ago. With the return of
the big chief something soon will be
made known concerning tne American
leaeuer's plan for next season. The
details of arranging the training trip
to the Pacific coast will be taken up
right away and dates scheduled.
Althoueh the White Sox have some
promising material coming, it is proD
able that the team will line up for Its
opening game next -April with
veterans in their old places. There
doubtless will be a few changes, but
for the most part the team will
closely resemble the team of tbe past
few seasons. .
In all Drobablllty "Jiggs" Donohue
will be back at first, with Isbell cov
ering second base in place of George
Davis. Davis couldn't cover much
ground last season. The number of
base hits that whizzed past him and
the kind he used to simply eat up was
something awful.
While Walsh, White and Smith will
again form the foundation - of the
pitching staff and do most of the
work, it is possible that one of the
raft of recruits may show big league
pitching form. Or It is possible that
Nick Altrock may come back to 1906
form. Undoubtedly a lot of the dead
wood will be cut out.
A Fight for Papke.
Los Angeles, Oct. 81.- Billy Papke,
middleweight champion, affixed his
signature last night to articles calling
for a glove contest of K5 rounds witn
Hueo Kellv before the Jeffries club In
this city within thirty days. Kelly is
certain to agree to the terms, it Is
said.

Wolgast evidently considers Attel too
tough a proposition at present and his
Judgment is indorsed by fight follow
ers here. Freddy Welsh probably
will be substituted, and if so,
pugilistic experts predict one of the
greatest boxing exhibitions ever seen
in the country.
GiU May Buy a Franchise.
Fort Wayne, Ind., Oct. 81. Warren
Gill, former Grand Rapid's first base
man, is likely to purchase the Grand
Rapids- franchise in the Central
league from Bert Annis, the South
Bend owner, who bought it from the
league last season. Gill is popular
with Grand Rapids fans, and they are
all anxious for him to buy it. "Presi
dent F. P. Carson has told Annis
that he cannot hold two franchises.
Grant to Coach Gophers.
Boston, Oct. 31. Dick Grant, the
famous Harvard and Canadian ath
lete, is considering an offer from the
board of control of Minnesota univer
sity to take charge of the track team
there. The offer was made some time
ago, and Grant, his friends say, prac
tically has decided to accept. He has
visited Minnesota since receiving the
offer and has looked things over.

Unsettled weather and pre-election

Except at Chicago and New York
where some good business has been
done in wholesale lines for spring first !
and second hand distribution has been
confined to filling in and immediate
shipment proportions. Current dis
tribution as a whole is still reported
below last year at the corresponding
date except at a few points in the
northwest. Perhaps the most active
line at wholesale is that cotton 'goods
for spring. The clothing trade is
rather quiet as a whole, being affected
by past previous weathers, but men's

ported better and there has been the
largest week's business in raw wool l
done this year in Boston. There is a I
better tone in the footwear trade, i

, of County Commissioners.

get that I am the Republican
candidate for County Commis
sioner in the City District, com
prising the Second, Third and
Fourth Wards.
Your votes will be appreciated.
