CURRENT SPORTING EVENT JURY STILL OUT IN SOME CASES By DAVIS J. WALSH (I. N. S. Sports Editor) NEW YORK, Nov. 5.—Post mortem evidence furnished by the football returns of the past week-end, show that Michigan, Notre Dame, Yale, Cornell, Syracuse and Illinois remain the front runners in the field of national activity. Chicago, Penn State, Dartmouth and California were found guilty of misrepresentation but in the case of Wisconsin, W. & J. and Minnesota, the jury is still out. Chicago was virtually eliminated from further consideration as a possible middle-western champion when it finished second to the Illini, a wonderfully fast outfit feature one Grange, top scorer of the Big Ten. Michigan and Notre Dame stuck with the pace by disposing of Iowa and Purdue respectively, but Penn State faded out before the running attack of Syracuse and California lost caste, nationally, by getting no better than a no score standoff with Nevada. This result can mean only one of two things: to wit, Either Nevada has quite a football team; California lacks the punch of other years. In any case, the Bears must now give additional proof that they belong. The most impressive teams in the east, at this writing, are Cornell, Yale and Syracuse, named in the order of their present worthiness. Hand picked schedule or otherwise, Cornell silenced all adverse comment in running up 32 points on a Dartmouth eleven, fresh from a victory over Harvard and until then undefeated. Jack Renault of Canada knocked out Floyd Johnson of Iowa, at the Madison Square Garden, Friday night at the Hollywood N.Y., Friday night. The Canadian out-classed the Iowa boxer all the way but was unable to finish the going til the last minute of the fifteenth round. Johnson is about as game as they make them and it was this quality that kept him going round after round. He never had a chance but Renault's fight was not impressive. He did not show the class that a serious contender for Dempsey's crown should have. He may get a chance with Gibbons or Wills. A decisive win over either would make the Canadian a drawing card worthy of mention. Ray Mabee, once our near light heavy weight wrestling champion, has gone into the fillyver business. Roy will sell you a fillyver of any vintage, dollar down and dollar per week for the rest of your natural life. Ray says that the fillyver game is not so rough as the wrestling game. Roy evidently has a self starter on his fillyver for no man could find a rougher occupation than cranking a balky Ford. Bert Collima proved his ability last night at the Hollywood American Legion Arena when he out-pointed Marty Foley of Tacoma all the way. Foley was touted as the loading light weight of the coast hpt the Whittier Mexican made him look like 30 cents.

Earl Dodge Stokes, millionaire," again too Yale was a second half team against the Army and the impetus of that rally should carry it right on to the end of the schedule. If Yale does not beat Harvard and Princeton this year, it might just as well turn its attention to canoeing and the finer, something big and clean, for example, like washing an elephant. Yale is surely due. Syracuse added to a fine record by beating Penn State and kept its goal line inviolate, a record equalled only by Wisconsin, Michigan and California. The Orange seems to have been one of the best defensive outfits in the country, and in the light of after events, may have even more. Minnesota kept in the running out west by outsourcing Northwestern, but the Gophers seem to be a trifle short of the ability of such teams as Illinois, Michigan and Notre Dame. Carnegie Tech finally passed beyond championship ranking by leading to Lehigh. W. & J. was held to a tie, La Payette coming from behind in UNITED THEATER, 306 E.

Young Stribling, the Georgia boy sensational boxer, may substitute for Mike McTigue in the scheduled McTigue-Gone Tuney fight at Madison Square Garden, Dec. 10. Stribbling held McTigue to a draw recently and aspires to the 175 pound weight crown. McTigue has an injured hand and may not be able to go on with Tuney. EXPECT TWO CUE STARS WILL TIE NEW YORK, Nov. 5. — A tie between two of the American entries, Willie Hoppe, Jake Schaefer and Welker Cochran, is the expected outcome of the final matches in the international 18.2 balk-line billiard championship this afternoon and tonight. Hoppe and Schaefer, chronic rivals, are to meet in tonight's match and the winner can do no worse than tie for the championship, making a playoff necessary. If Cochran fails to beat Edouard Horemans of Belgium this afternoon, the winner of the Hoppe-Schaefer match will be returned champion. In the event of a tie, the play-off match may be taken to Chicago, owing to the fact that the promoters are experiencing difficulty in holding their exhibition room at the Hotel Pennsylvania for an extra night. L. A. MEN HELD ON CARRYING CHARGE Roger F. Neal and Roger C. Eastman, both of Los Angeles, were picked up yesterday by the Fullerton police on the charge of transporting liquor.

BELGIAN IN LEAD NEW YORK, Nov. 5. — Coming from behind in the ninth inning, Edouard Horemans of Belgium, took the lead from Welker Cochran of California, this afternoon in their match in the international 18.2 balk-line billiard tournament. At this stage Horemans led, 247 to 178. He made a run of 171 in the ninth frame. FULLERTON LOSES Fullerton lost its league game with Pasadena Saturday, 18 to 0.

He wore he saw Mrs. Stokes on the yacht in 1911, before the married Stokes. McCormick, testifying for Mrs. Stokes, said he had never seen her before the present trial and that she had not been on his yacht. Mr. Murphy has figured for the second time in a sensational diverse suit, having been one of the star witnesses for: Mrs. James A. Stillman, when her banker-husband questioned the legitimacy of her youngest son. He was a steward on Stillman's yacht, the Modesty. "I saw Mrs. Stokes on the yacht twice," Murphy testified. "She came aboard with a Miss Ida Adams, a friend of McCornick's." When McCornick testified, he readily admitted his friendship for Miss Adams, formerly Broadway theatrical star of the "Pajama Girl" and other musical plays. He said she had taken cruises on his yacht. On cross examination, Mr. Untermyer brought out that Murphy was paid $20 for the day he visited Stokes to discuss the divorce suit.

Ray had entered a plea of guilt to the technical charge of using the mailer to defraud, and announced himself as ready "to swallow his medicine." I took the prosecuting attorneys when the indictment was returned. I was ready to swallow my medicine, and if he wanted to send me to prison just clip off a ticket," Ray said. Mrs. Grace Whitaker of Oakland, Calif., who invested $1000 with Cook's Petroleum Produce office, D. Eyman Huff of El Modena, chairman, said today. EXPECT COUP BY NATIONALISTS WED.

S. WASHINGTON, Nov. 5.—The German-American mixed claims commission, organized to adjudicate claims of the two nations growing out of the war, today handed down two decisions involving a total of $380,000,000. The first held the German government responsible for sinking of the British liner Lucitania and made it liable to the payment of 278 claims, aggregating $23,790,-000. The second turned down the claim of the U. S. government, which asked for $245,000,000 to cover 3190 claims under the war risk insurance. The decision knocking out the war risk insurance claims reduced the total amount of claims before the commission to $879,064,-313.

LAND STRIKE MAY PROMOTE CRISIS LONDON, Nov. 5.—England is threatened with a land strike—which, added to unemployment, would undoubtedly produce the greatest economic crisis that the country has seen for many a year. Farmers maintain that they cannot profitably farm their arable land, and unless the government gives them aid they propose to turn their arable land back into grass land. Such a step would mean more unemployment and a movement of the rural population to the industrial centers, which are already overpopulated. England is already a top-heavy industrial country, and any movement that detracts from its agriculture and adds to its industry is a faulty economic movement. "The war-time addition to our arable acreage has already vanished," declares Harry Germany, president of the National Farmers' Union. BE CAREFUL, J. B. "I have used an ax all my life but waited until I was nearly 79 before I cut my foot," declared J. B. Root as he exhibited a carpet-slippered foot today. "I split rails for a seven-rail fence around my first farm. It was 80 acres with rail fences dividing it into 20-acre fields. I also spent four winters in a lumber camp. This was the first time my ax ever slipped against my foot. There was only one sharp place on the blade and it had to nick my shoe. However, it wasn't sharp enough to make a very deep cut." Dr. B.
