THIS SEASON
Curtain Falls on Western
League Race of 1922—
Tulsa Grabs Last Offering.
The end has come! Like every
, 'Kins: else, bo it is with baseball
=eahonn Monday f.iw the final
, game of the year played ;ind Ok-
lahoma City's ball tram, which at
< first gave so much promise and
; later plunged into the oblivion of
3 second dtrtslon team, bnw down
for the last, time of the year lo a
foreign conqueror. For the cham-
pions from Tulsa fought their way
to a 10-mning victory over .lark
Rgan's ball tossers, winning to the
time of 3 to 2.
And now the once proud ball
< lub haB. like the conquered of
old and all time, disbanded and
each wended his own particular
way.
The game was played before a
very small crowd which was re-
warded by seeing one of the sruip-
ntoat games of the year, a 10-in-
ning battle that was bitterly con-
tested.
Oklahoma City, realizing that it
was their last game of the season,
displayed a do-or-die spirit that,
had it heen shown earlier in ihe
season, would have won a pen-
nant. The tribe jumped into the
lead in the first inning and scored
one run. Tulsa tied Ihe score In
the fifth and added another marker
to their string in the ninth onJy
to have the tribe tic the score in
their half of the ninth. Then in
the tenth the Oilers shoved over
the winning tally.
The game was a battle between
Allen and McLaughlin with a
shade in favor of the Tulsa twirler.
But is is all over and it will
soom be time for the "remember
when" league to start its series
around the old family stove and
dream of pennant wiuners to comc.

Bennie Owen, as he is known on the campus of the University of
Oklahoma, has been coach of the Sooner athletic teams for years. His
football elevens have been known for years for their use of the for-
ward pass, and for lighting ability. He developed a Missouri Valley
champion eleven in 1920, the first year Oklahoma was a member of
that conference.
SIKI WANTS

Black Boy Understands the
Financial End of Game.
PARIS. Sept. 26.—The skull of
Battling Siki may be hard and that
Senegalese person may be some-
thing of a "mutt" as far as knowj-
ejjge of boxing skill is concerned,
but he knows the language of gold.
He also realizes what his vic-
tory over Georges Carpenter, fall-
en idol of French fans, means.
When an American fight pro-
moter slipped the black boy an of-
fer to meet Harry Wills at the Folo'
grounds, October 26, yesterday, for
£20,000, he disdainfully pushed the.
cablegram aside and announced
that one million franrs is the sum
he will demand to fight the Ameri-
cr.n negro heavy.
Translated into American, one
million francs amounts to approxi-
mately $200,000.
Jack Johnson, giant American
negro, formerly world's champion,
has sent a challenge to Siki, it is
understood.

Joe Coftey, Who Will Meet

' And again the Drovers A. c. is
to entertain the bugs with a choice
fistic morsel. For on Friday night
j the great god "Punch" will rule
supreme unmindful of any other
j dynasty in the sport world.
Lackey, tirod of heavyweight
contests, has decided to give to the
fnns a c rd that will have all fast
and snappy bouts, each of which
will hr i head liner, and the fans
will enjoy 41 rounds of fast ami
furious boxing.
The main event will bo n 12-
round go between Ray Ixing, who
is the pride of Oklahoma City's
fight bugs on account of his won-
derful showing in bis bout with
champion Jack Britton, and Lee
Morrissey, who started in the fight
game here but who drifted away
and came back with a reputation.
This bout should be one of the best
ever staged here for the hoys arc
both clever and last and each can
punch as hard as a middleweight.
Coffey Highly Praised.
The best bout of the evening,
however, should be the 10-round t;o
between Jack Jones, whom Bob
Roper said was one of the cleverest,
featherweights that he had ever
seen, and Joe Coffey of Denver,
whom Otto Floto of the Denver
Post says has all of the earmarks
of a champion. These boy." both ;
have reputations of being hard hit-
ters and both have a string of sev-
eral knockouts, and neither boy
has ever been off his feet. Jones,
who has been promised a bout with
Andy Chaney, leading feather-
weight contender, if he wins, is out
for blood for he realizes that if he
gets over this hill and gets a chance
at Chaney and wins over < haney
or gets a good draw with Chaney
he is made in the pugilistic world.
Coffey, too, has a great stake to
sacrifice in case he loses, for Den-
ver promoters have been angling
for a match between him and Dan-
ny Frush or Johnny Dundee.
HcKee Meets Blley.
Another go on the card is the
battle between Mutt McKee and
Kid Riley. Riley has come to the
city to deny the rumor that he had
quit the ring by engaging in all of
the battles lie can get. Once be-
fore these boys fought and Riley
won, but Mutt was not in the shape
then that he is now and Riley will
be plenty lucky if he gets off with
a draw. However, Riley says that
he is going to buckle down and
battle hard, and train hard to bat-
. tie hard. This is something that
I lie has never done before,
i Taking the card all in ail, it will
j be one of ,the best ever staged in
the city from a viewpoint of action,

No wonder Lenin has been able
to keep his government going and
to keep up propaganda all over tb«>

sian crown gems so many times
must have brought uncounted bil-
lions of dollars to the Soviet cof-
fers!
This being, perhaps, not strictly
a news story but. a "fact" story
the final part will be added as rl
postscript. The postscript appeared
in the "rotogravure" section of the

SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. l!ti De-
spite a vigorous campaign for re-
election Governor William D.
Stephens, known far and wide as
the man who is holding Tom Moon-
ey and Warren K. Billings in pris-
on. was defeated at the recent pri-
mary election. Under the election
laws of California, a defeated can-
didate cannot nin in the general
election as an independent., and
therefore Governor Stephens will
be ousted from office following the
general election iu November. '
It is held to be a certainty that
Friend W Richardson, who defeat-
ed Stephens for the Republican
nomination, will be elected over
District Attorney Wool wine of ton
Angelee, who was nominated for
governor on the Democratic ticket.
The attitude of Richardson on the
Mooney-BIllings case Is at present
unknown.
The Incarceration of Mooney and
Billings and the extravagance of |
his administration were chiefly re-
sponsible for Stephens' defeat.
A feature of the primary election
was the narrow margin by which
Hiram Johnson. Republican candi-
date for United States senator, won
tlie nomination. It was regarded
as certain in political circles that
Johnson would be re-elected by an
enormous majority and the close-
ness of the election was a bomb-
shell in the Johnson camp.
The narrowness of Johnson's es-
cape from the political graveyard
was chiefly due to the same factors
which causcd the defeat "f Ste-

Johnson's victory had a boomerang
effect which will no doubt hasten
the date of his retirement from
politics.
Both Johnson and Stephens have
long been bitter foes of organized
labor, and though sponsored by
many labor leaders, the rank and

successful in defeating Stephns
and In practically eliminating the
