Any shadow of doubt which may
have obscured Mickey Walker's
reign an champion of the middle
weights, today had lifted to re
veal the bulldog from K unison, X.
J., as a champion w.iose creden
tials cannot be questioned even
by Ace Hudkins.
The questioning shroud was
nulled aside last night before a
crowd of more than 2C,000 fans
at Wrigb'y Kb'ld. who saw the
challenging wildcat from Nebraska
tamed In 10 rounds of sanguine
fighting tamed as he seldom has
been lamed before.
Only the ruggedness of the two
scrappers prevented a .seemingly
certain early conclusion to the bat

final gong sounded, that the lifting
of his hi nd was but a matter of

he rocked the rushing, milling,
Hudkins with a jolting left to the'
chin, the champion hei away, but
the tenth round found the Wildcat
still coming In for more. Eight
of tho ten Stanzas Referee Jack
Kennedy awarded the champion.
To Hudkins he gave the nod only
In the eighth. The other ended
In a draw.
The characteristic flaying tactics
of the challenger forced Walker
to the ropes from beginning to
end, but with nlmost as much con
sistency, the battering right hook
and the rapier left warded off the
damaging body attack with which
the Nebraskan had bruised his way
to many a gory victory.
Wildcat Game.
Despite all this, the tenth round
came w.ith the Wildcat calling to
Walker to come on and fight. His

ed defiance to the champion, and
i the toy bulldog punctuated his
Words with- blyws .which.. . -might
have stilled the efforts of any but
the fighting heart of the Xe
brnskan. Walker left the ring with the
tremendous cheers of the throng
which, a short time before had
hailed him with comparative' si
lence. The furious battle had left
him almost unmarked.
Into the coffers that cheering
throng had thrust 5141.450. a rec

and the Pacific coast. Of the re

thirds., while Hudkins gets 12i

The Xebraskan's defeat virtual
ly terminated his lighting career.
A year ago last summer he drop

bout In Chicago, which wound up
p.mtd a downpour of rain.
Through swollen lips the Wild
cat reiterated his pre-fight state

Walker held the weight advan

Relief from Gas

The doctors tell us that 90 per
cent of all sickness is due to stom
ach and bowel troubles. You can t
be well if your digestion is bad;
you are likely to get sick unless you
relish Xood and digest it properly.
Tanlac has a wonderful record
as a relief from digestive troubles,
even those of years' standing.
Mrs. Annie Waters, of 2752 44th
Ave. S.W., Seattle, Wash., says: 'I
suffered from nerve-wracking stom
ach trouble. Every available rem
edy brought no results until I tried
Tanlac. It built me up till my
tomach trouble was cured.
If you suffer from gas, pains in
the stomach or bowels, dizziness,

ATHLETIC BAN
Athletic Board Ruling on
Ineligilibity Demand
Definite Proof.
BAKER, Ore., Oct. 30. (Jp) A
citizens' committee was organized
1 here last night for the purpose of
: contesting the recent ruling of the,
I state high school athletic board in
j burring Maker high school from fur
j ther participation iu high school
football this season. The board so
ruled because of alleged "unsports
j mausliip" on the part of the school
j and for alleged failure to abide by
( board rulings with reference to the
eligibility of players.
Henry McKiuney was elected
chairman of the committee; A. S.
Grunt, secretary, and James Bur
nett, treasurer. Funds are being
raised to finance what mav become
I a long drawn-out fight,
j The objective of the committee,
;os explained at the meeting, is to
obtain public retraction of all the
charges involving bad faith on the
I part of Maker high school by Mr.
Longfellow and Mr. Towler of la
I Grande, and Mr. Adams of Corvnl-
lis, "unless definite proof can he
furnished." removal of suspension
and public declaration by the statu
boaid that "charges of bad faith
were not sustained."
The residence question originally
raised by Lu Grande does not fig
ure In the controversy, It was said,
"since by failure to declare the
athletes ineligible, the board up
held their eligibility."
The committee was to meet to
day to consider placing charges of
unfairness against Roy E. Cannon
of Portland, secretary, of the high
school athletic board.
Tho committee plans to send a
delegation to the annual meeting of
the association in December to
fight for vindication in event no ac
tion is taken before then.

One of the most interesting of
the debates left over 'by tho world
series concerns the speed of Rob
Grove, southpaw ace of the Ath

the fire of other famous sharp
shooters. The series display of pitching
settled at least on portion of the
argument that has been going on
for some time. Nofliing that any
other twirler on either team show

speed that Grove let loose at sev

"Grove is different from n!l the

DOBBYN TO TAKE
The Eugene high school football
team, described by the honu town
papers as "a championship bound
team," plays the locals at Van
Seoyoe field Saturday nfternonn,
and from all the advance dope,
have the edge only in one depart
ment res6rves. In weight. the
two teams are evenly matched.
The Eugene team is just getting
over an "inferiority complex." and
the locals are recovering from a
"superiority complex."
Tho Mod ford squad ought to be
in the best condition of the year
Saturday. They still have a long
injured list, but all the stalwarts
have returned to training. They
have been undergoing a lot of hard
work, and their smiling faces are
not noted on the highways and by
ways after curfew any more. The
narrow squeak at Grants "I'ass was
a great awakener. Dobbyn, a huge
kid, will be back at tackle next
Saturday, as he bus recovered
from the boil on his neck.
Med ford has better than an even
chance to defeat -Eugene, if they
play-with the dash and fight they
did against Corvallls. The Eugene
lino is not as tough ns t'orvallis,
though Med ford mado consistent
ynrdaKe through their "g I a n t
tackles.
The locals will hold a scrtmniiige
tonight, and the rest of the week
will be devoted to rigid drillinu for
the invaders.
The Eugene team will arrive
Friday evening by auto stage. Thoy
will bring along two full teams
and have their hearts set on heat
ing Medford. They are assured of
ue of tjie busiest nfternoons they
have encountered this season and
will know before the final whistle
they are not playing Redmond or
Cottage Grove.
