SO. t: 3 , - J
Ollre ,2eller, a halfback from
last year's squad. Is surprising ob
servers by hla ability this year. He
is fast, and has a bit more weight
than last season. If he keeps up
hit-form, he Is certain of a place
In the bsekfield.
- Reginald DePoe. the Chema
: wa" Indian find, continues to get
j off some good kicks. With DePoe
j and -Mumford both booting the
i ball' for greater distances than
last year, hope in this department

Carole Cranor, one of Keene's
besfbits this year, either at end

a big addition to the squad..
"Red" Lang. Willamette's best

OF WINNING I KO
LAKE VILLA, 111., Sept. 20.
(AP). The self-earae strategy
that carried Gene Tunney. to the
heavyweight throne in the battle
of the Sesqui-Centennlal at Phila
delphia last fall will guide the big
marine in defense of his heavy
weight crown against the former
champion. JacK iempey, in Sol
dier's field Thursday nignt.
While around 150,000 specta
tors watch from the blackness of
the huge stadium at two gladia
tors battling for a purse of $1.
450.000. Tunney believes he will
stab Dempsey off balance contin
ually with a cutting left hand and
hammer out iust as decisive a vic
tory with solid right crosses as
he did in their first encounter a
year ago.
Determined On K. O.
Analyring the situation calmly
at the close of five months of
training for the record-shattering
battle of the distant vistas. Tun
ney can see ahead only the oppor
tunity to complete the job left
unfinished in the driving rain at
Philadelphia. Although the chain
pion shies at predicting a knock
out victory, he believes that such
an ending alone can establish the
supremacy he feels over Demp
sey.
Tunney's best chance for a
knockout, he feels, probably will
be in one of the last three rounds,
from the eighth to the tenth.
oene will enter the ring
pledged to no definite style of
milling, however.
"My plan of battle depends en
tirely on what Dempsey does,
how he fights, and the opportuni
ties fate throws in my path," he
said. "I may nail h im with a
right smash to the chin in the
first seconds of fighting as I did
last September. If that happens
Dempsey cannot evade a knockout
this time.
May Wear Jfu-k Down
"Then again Jack may take
everything I have and keep his
feet. Ten rounds really is not
very long, you know. In that
event I probably shall fight him
as I did at Philadelphia: wearing
him down with a steady attack.
Certainly I shall not feel that I
have completed my job if Demp
sey is erect when the final gong
sounds."
Into whatever style of milling
Tunney elects, however, there
probably will seep a bit of the
change that has crept, almost un
noticed, Into the titleholder's
bearing and ring work during the
past year. For Gene now Is the
champion a proud champion
supremely confident that he can
whip any man In the sport rules.
Never again, critics believe, could
Tunney reconcile himself solely to
a "hit and run" defense.
Close observers attribute this
attitude not only to confidence
that came with winning the title,
but to the growing popularity of
the former marine.

How tim i.ics! For the foot
ball player Christmas Is only three
busted ribs and a broken nose off.
There's' hardly a school in the
country that couldn t use a. couple
of dozen touchdowns right now.
Grid players quit wearing nose
guards when they found out they
were not protection, anyway, from
broken necks.
From now until the turkey suc
cumbs with a low cry into the
gravy, college stadiums all over
the country will present that great
drama: "When Cleat Meets
Cleat."
Slugging Is barred from foot
ball. Oh, well, stomping on the
opponent's ear is much more ef
fective, anyway.
Football is too one-sided. If a
fellow thinks it's time to make a
touchdown he finds. 11 others
have a different idea.
Hitting the line is all right as
long as the line doesn't hit back.

Dempsey curled up under the
blankets tonight for his sleep at
his wind-swept training camp con
fident that . when he meets Gene

Hiram Dempsey. the Manassa
Mauler's father, is certain that his
famous son will conquer Tunney.
"I came all the way from Utah
to see Jack win back that cham
pionship," he said. "My boy, in
condition, fs the best fighter In
the world. I only needed one
peek at him today to know that

bad shape last year when he
fought Tunney." ,

TEMP
ASlS MAINSTAY
From all appearances at the
high school athletic field yester
day afternoon, the. 1927 Salem
high football team largely will be
built around one man. Captain
Temple.
This fellow towers above all of
them, not only in size, but in abil
ity as well. He can kick; he can
pass; he can run with the ball,
and his performance is almost that
of a college player.
Temple kicks.: the ball high, giv
ing) the ends plenty of time to get
down under it, and his passes are
uncannily accurate. Coach Ander
son will probably play him at
quarterback.
Other backfield men on the
squad of 45 turning out yesterday
who showed up well are Backe.
