! surprised the student body last night
in the announcement that he had
; handed In his resignation to President
i William Lowe Bryan and Dr. C. J.

letic committee. Sheldon came to Indi
ana in 1905 and previous to that time
was a star end on one of Coach Stogg's
elevens at Chicago. Indiana never
turned out a winning team until Shel
don took charge, and this fact has en
deared him to the entire student body.

milling, but lacked the class of his
opponent.' The bout was fast and full
of hard hitting. Jack Whitaker of Su
perior and Kid Coffey of Depere drew

of Minneapolis In the preliminary.
JERRY DALTON
TO FIGHT SMITH
Louisville, Ky., Nov. 12. Jerry Dal
ton of Indianapolis, a well - known
f eatherweght, who has been doing his
(training in this city and in JefTerson
j ville, has gone to. Hamilton, Ont.,
where he Is matched to box Matty
: Smith of Chicago ten rounds on No
vember 26. Dalton has agreed to make
; 122 pounds at 3 o'clock in the after
noon.
Minneapolis. Minn., Nov. 12. The
Minnesota football team will play the
crucial game of the season against
Chicago on Saturday without the serv
ices of its captain, Donald Aldworth.
Although the official sources of in
formation have been closed tightly by
Coach Williams, it became known yes
terday that the Gopher leader has had
a recurrent attack of rheumatic fever
and is confined to his bed.
Aldworth appeared in togs this week
and took part in the signal practice,
but did not appear in scrimmage. The
coach had hoped to tide him over for
the Chicago contest, but Aldworth
probably will be out for the rest of ths
season. Fournier, who was put out of
the Wisconsin game for rough play,
may play left end. Fournier has not
been in good shape this week and his
place at practice last night was taken
by Fegan.
McAlmon, who was absent from
practice Monday night, supposedly on
account of illness, was back. He will
lead the Gophers for the rest of the
year. Practice was of the grueling
variety. The men were given a hard
scrimmage by the scrubs.
It is estimated that 1,000 seats for
the game are in the hands of scalpers,
and the athletic authorities are uniting
with the police in an attempt to en
force the anti-scalping law passed last
year. So far there have been no ar
rests. More than 10,000 persons from
outside the Twin Cities will attend the
game.
The Northwest is aflame over the
approaching battle. Manager McBean
expects a record crowd of 22,000. A
Chicago game has not attracted as
much advance interest and aroused as
much enthusiasm in a decade. The
students are talking a lot, but betting
little. They are afraid of the score
sheet for the season, which seems to
give the Maroons an advantage in the
dope.
RENSSELAER
IS COMING
SATURDAY
(Special to Tki Times.) " . '
Rensselaer, Ind.,' Nov. 12. Coach
Parker Is putting the finishing touches
on the high school football team,
which 1b to go to Hammond next Sat
urday to play the strong team of that
city. Hammond's strength is measured
by the fact that It placed a tie game
ith Morocco at Morocco, the score be
ing 6 to 6. A comparative Idea of the
strength of the teams can be arrived
at by the fact that both Morrocco and
Rensselaer defeated Chicago Heights
by overwhelming scodFs.
The absence of Paul Miller from th
practice for the past week has inter
rupted the back field considerably, but
his return has put new steam in the
home team and great hojnj of victory
is evidenced.
On Thanksgiving Rensselaer will
entertain a Chicago team, the Bowen
high school, and another good contest
is expected.

PELKY Ai BURNS
VISITJN CHICAGO
Former Champion's Pro-
tege to Meet Gunboat
Smith.
Tommy Burns .former heavyweight
champion, brought his candidate for
the championship, Arthur Pelkey, into
town yesterday for a few hours. They
were on the way from Chatham, Ont..
to Calgary, leaving at 6:30 last even
ing for the second named Canadian
city. From there they will go on to
San Francisco as soon as they get
word from Promoter Jim Coffroth.
Burns has matched Pelkey for a twenty-round
fight with Gunboat Smith,
but Coffroth has yet to pick the date.
Burns suspects the mill will take place
on New Tear's afternoon, and asserts
that the winner will be the undisputed
white heavyweight champion. He
makes this statement without regard
for the feelings of Jess Willard. Carl
Morris and Frank Moran.
It has been six years and over since
Burns was in Chicago. On that visit
he was here with the moving pictures
of his second fight with Philadelphia
Jack O'Brien, the battle he won, and
on which he based his championship
claims. Burns boxed nightly with
George Memslc, then a challenger for
Joe Cans' title, after the pictures had
been flashed before the eyes of the
fans. -
After a Jaunt with the pictures
Burns went west and stopped BUI
Squires, the Australian champion, in a
round. Then he sailed for Europe,
where he whaled the best, and to Aus
tralia. John Artha Johnson finally
cornered him down below at Sydney
and took the title away from him in
fourteen rounds. Burns has done some
battling since, but is a manager pure
and simple now and claims he has the
coming champion in Pelkey, because,
he claims, Arthur has something the
other hopes do not possess, a knockout
wallop. Gunboat Smith no doubt will

W1L.I INVESTIGATE HAMMOND,
It is understood that when Dr. Gott
finishes his work at Gary trie board
will also look into conditions in Ham
mond, Michigan City, South Bend and
Fort Wayne.
Dr, Gott stated recently In Crawfords-
vllle that he had succeeded in collect
ing evidence that he believed would
result in the expose of two fake cor
porations that have been doing busi
ness in Gary, largely among the for
eign laborers.
"The only steps we can take." said
the doctor, "are those that will revoke

FOi:VD TWO CASES LIKE IT.
A corporation is formed by the fak
ers and some young licensed physician
whose practice has been poor is secured
to prostitute his legal rights in order
to advance the scheme of the crooks
for whom he is working. In my in
vestigation I found what I am convinc
ed are two cas;s of this sort. At the
next meeting of the state board we will
probably revoke the state licenses of
the two young doctors who are con
nected with the corporations and whose
names have been used In the literature
advertising the schemes. The men
higher up who are the real crooks will
be dealt with by the authorities at
Gary."
HOW THEY WORK IT.
The plan of the crooked concerns Is
to establish an office and to place one
licensed physician in it. Advertising
matter Is then distributed stating that?
the office is that of a number of spe
cialists. The Ignorant poor people are
the prey of these concerns, the physi
cian informing all visitors to the office
