IRONWOOD DAILY GLOBE, WEDNESDAY-EVENING, OCTOBER 19, 1927. Outcome of Michigan, Northwestern Games Holds Bij F. R. Starbuck Declares Masses Are Interested in Professional Sports. Chicago, Oct.

1 )-- A defense of tho attitude of tho newspapers toward professional sports was given hero today by F. Starbuck, Wisconsin slate president of The Associated Press and co-publisher of tho Kaolno Journal-News, before tho Inland Press association. He said tho attitude of tho public toward tho recent Tunney-Dempsey bout proved that the masses are Interested In such affairs. "There only ono way to look at thJj) question," said Mr, Starbuck. "It is not what the publisher wants but what tho readers want.

Interested In Professional Sports, "I believe the recent Tunncy-Demp- aey fight proved conclusively that the masses aro interested in professional sport, Certainly here was a contest that was commercialized from start to finish and I do not believe that tho support of tho press was the main iactor in arousing interest, "In Racine, there are possibly 6,500 radio sots, and if 00 per cent were not tuned in on the fight night then I'm a poor guesscr "Admitting my own non-attendance tit certain professional games docs not mean I am not Interested and I tnlnit the same thing applies to many others. I know many people who ri ad the stock market reports daily, but would never think of risking dollar, "The trouble with some of us newspapermen is that realising the so-railed commercialism of professional sports we don't like the Idea of ccivm? up so much space to it without those back of the affairs spending some of the money In buying our advertising space, That is a regrettable feature. Objection To So Much Sports, "I liave heard one objection rawed to so ranch sports and that is, tho disinclination of advertisers to go on sport pages. "Racine is primarily a workinumnn's town; there are thousands of young men in the factories, Even before the day of tho radio wo have had six truck lines busy every afternoon of tho post season ball games, What did that mean? "Wo naturally like to talk about tho pureness of amateur sports, but attain in a rapidly increasing number of cascii that is a misnomer Certainly college football is commercialized enough even though tho players get nothing for their services; our city basketball and indoor baseball loams have to have their uniforms furnished by some enterprising merchant or manufacturer and admission Is charged, "So we get clown to a pretty nar-ow range of sports when wo dismiss professional and the college amateur who fights for Ills alma mater where 50,000 people pay largo sums to see him perform. 8,000 Bowlers In Racine, "Last year over eight thousand bowlors in Wisconsin came to Racine in a four week period and competed prizes; they received money awards so I presume that make, 1 them professionals.

How Is that for interest? "Tho press may have created a Frankenstein monster, but it is here and apparently cannob bo destroyed, "We can never pet away from the fact that tho newspaper is the purveyor of news, that Is fundamental and true, no matter how large the publication or where published, When Ik comes to the news columns we would be foolish TO shut our eyes to what constitutes the Intercut of our readers," It's All In-the--Slant What's Your IdenS' (By Associated Press) College football is putting on its flip flops earlier than usual this year. Where the "dope" usually Is strong enough to weather most of October's shocks, it has been knocked up against tho ropes'by a aeries form somersaults. It will be toppy turvy bewildering to keep up with as the rule changes November unfolds anything lika the upsets that October already has ushered In. The climax battles are yet lo come but the Carnage so far flncls defeat escaped by only ono of the eight major teams that finished the 102B campaign unbeaten, Lafayette, the only ciisloni team neither conquered nor tied In 102(5 is the only survivor of the unbeaten brigade and even this team has ono tie marked against Its record so fnr this season. The Maroon juggernaut ran into unexpected opposition from West Virginia last Saturday and barely escaped with a 7-7 score.

'Red Devils' Now Preparing for Hancock, with Toledo Always in View. "Black has changed the color of a green team," was the inscription on one of the banners carried by high school students Monday afternoon, in their celebration parade over the vie; tory of Saturday afternoon.

It was decidedly a green team that took the field early this fall, but that shade has begun to change and to show age, so that the squad will be anything but green by the time the season ends, if nothing unexpected comes across the path to retard or push them back, Although dope shows that the "Red Devils" should have an'easy game with Hancock here Saturday, there is always the possibility that the dope bucket will be upset and a team will be stronger than the records show it Black is taking no chances in that matter and will do everything in his power to have the locals even better than they wore Saturday to care for any emergency that may arise. Every member of the team knows that they had to fight to win last Saturday and they also know that they will have to fight to win this wook- The victory is not already tuclbd into the bag but they expect to do everything possible to make that tuck- Ing process a reality, Ironwoofl vs "Wakcficld Oct. 29. After the Hancock game, Ironwoorl has Wakefield the following Saturday afternoon on the Wakefield lot, 'Then the boys will take their long hop to Toledo where they intend to take the measure of Waite high, which set Memphis down with a 33 to 0 score last Saturday, Memphis high boys were the champs of the southern district last season and have been going good this year. The dope again points towards an easy game at Wakefield on Oct.

29, but that outfit has a habit of playing mediocre ball for a period and then coming through with a superb showing to upset the high flying Intentions of most any team. Wakefisld has been defeated by Bessemer, Stambaugh and Calumet and has won from Hurley, Palls, and St. Ambrose. The Open -Pit team meets Bessemer Saturday afternoon and a more inite check will be obtained on its strength at that time. Pointing for VValtc Higli.

A great amount of developing must be done before the squad goes to Toledo and the coaches will use the next two weeks with their games to pick INSURANCE?

An effort will be made to build up a strong attack and prepare a defense for the Waite high aggregation which has been going so strong during the early part of the season. Although school officials arc not underestimating the power which may be shown by either Hancock or Wakefield, the team will be pointed in the general direction of Toledo for the next two weeks as that will be the real test of the outfit.

That is the game that will decide the truth of that eye-catching inscription which read, "Black has changed the color of a green team." Results of Fights.
