There was nothing spectacular about the name, no long una or very clever plays being pull-d by either aide. The Miners fought to the finish, In a manner befitting good football players, but after the first quarter the result of the game was never in doubt. Coach J. F. McKale of Arizona said last night that all the Wildcats wanted was to win the game without hurting anyoic, no that Arizona's chances with Occidental will not be impaired.

Nevertheless, the Texans are not quitters, and they played their best till the end. Jake Meyer Stands Out No stars were conspieuious on the Arizona side. Jf anything the Wildcats were not up to standard, but they did not have to exert themselves against the Miners.

Jake Meyer was probably the outstanding man, If there was one. Slonaker and Marlar pulled some rather clever forward passes. Taken all together the game was not wonderful in any sense.

The teams are well matched In some respects, but Harvard tied Princeton and Princeton defeated Yale. Harvard's playing against Princeton was much more impressive than Yale's. Early in the same.

Harvard rushed more than half the length of the field and nearly got a touchdown. With a great rally late in, the game. It tied the score by another march down the field and across the Princeton goal line. Nothing like this consistent attack was shown by Yale In its game with Princeton. Harvard has another advantage in that Its regulars did not play against Tufts last Saturday but watched the Yale-vPrinceton.

West Virginia Weslnran at Washing (By RINGSIDER) Tucson's first amateur boxing tournament was held last night at the Elyslan grove. It was also probably the last that will be held for some time. Financially, the program was a failure, but from a sporting point of view it was fairly good entertainment. In spite of "Parson" Wedge's predictions before the bouts, no future aintHeur champions made their appearaneu during tlie evening, unless they kept thtlr phenomenal skill and speed under cover. There were several interesting developments during the evening, however.

One was the appearance of Tommy Dortd and Dick Brenton in a three-round special event. Dodd has recently been seeking to crash Into the professional fight game here, basing his ambitions on" the statement that he had defeated some of the best bantams in the east. Bud Dodd failed to show anything unusual last night. handled him gently for three Ringside, St. Paul, Nov.

21. Mike O'Dowd, middleweight champion, and Mike Gibbons, the St, Paul phantom, fought a terrific, bloody, no-declsion 10-round bout tonight. The fight was Vicious and close all the way and although several of the ringside experts called the trout a draw, the majority gave O'l'owd a alight shade. The tight was so close that anyone seemed entitled to his opinion. O'Dowd outsiugged Gibbons when the phantom threw caution to the winds anil fought the champion.

When qibbons resorted now and then, to his fumous boxlug tactics, he made O'Dowd miss again and again. Try For Knockout From the opening gong, It was evident that the two St. Paul lighters were determined to settle their long standing feud by a knockout if possible. Gibbons at times amazed his followers by deliberately taking stiff punches from O'Dowd In an effort to land his dreaded right across. Early in the fight, O'Dowd's right opened a leep cut over Gibbons' eye and from then on Gibbons fought under a handicap.

Gibbons had a slight shade at the start of the sixth round, but in the opinion of some sport writers, he lost this lead when he tried to outslug the champion. O'Dowd seemed the stronger when the light was over. The crowd gave O'IKiwd the warmer reception. Promoter J. E.

Reddy estimated the total receipts to, be slightly mure than $40,000. Gibbons received eighty per cetit of the gross receipts; out of which he paid O'Dowd $15,000. Gibbons also had the motion- plctura-aonoesslon and agreed to give O'Dowd 25 per cent of the film receipts. Examination of Gibbons' right hand showed it badly bruised and that possibly Small bones were broken. Gibbons said he hurt it in the sixth round and put It out of commission in the eighth.

Gibbons Goes Back George Barton, Minneapolis, and Ed L. Shave, St. Paul, sport writers, who acted as secondary referees, both gave the fight to O'Dowd. Sport writers were agreed upon one thing that Gibbons is far from the fighter he was three years ago. Fight By Rounds.

Round One The men clinched and Gibbons forced O'Dowd to tho ropes. O'Dowd landed a right and left to tho body. Gibbons made no effort to box the champion but stood toe to toe and sluggAl. Gibbons made O'Dowd miss and landed several light blows in return. A tame round.

Round Two O'Dowd drove two rights to tho jaw. Gibbons landed a light right cross.

Thayer Outclassed The second development was the outclassing of Young Thayer of the University by Red Michaels. Thayer's friends have recently been making rash claims for him which failed to materialize last night. Thayer looks like a good sparring boxer but as a mixer and miller he is not there. On the other hand Michaels appeared to be not overburdened with science, but showed such a good knowledge of slug-and-slam tactics that the fight was stopped in the third round and Michaels given the decision after he had treated" Mr.

Thayer rather rudely from the start. Michaels had the edge in weight with him.

This will be the thirty-eighth contest between the two famous university elevens, ticipation In the English game, and the elimination of the alleged evils of professional coaching in the American game. Rugby was played for nine years. In 1914.

California urged adoption of a rule eliminating freshmen from varsity competition. Stanford, at first refused to accede to California's demands, holding that the proposed rule was aimed at several Australian rugby stars from the famous All-Black team which toured America In 1913, who had entered Stanford and played against California. Finally Stanford agreed to the rule. In the meantime, California had decided to adopt the American game. Stanford Stanford University, Nov.
