Oct. 7. —All efforts this week of coaches and players of Indiana University will be centered toward preparing for the intersectional contest with the Louisiana! state university eleven, at Indianapolis, Oct. 11. Coach Ingram has a number of tricks up his sleeve that will be brought forth when the “Scrappin' Hoosiers" take the offensive. The day has been designated as “Dixy Day" and Indianapolis will be decorated for the occasion. The game will be played at Washington Park. The Southerners, coached by Mike Donahue, former Auburn mentor, and famous for the powerful line s that the Georgia school turned out while under his tutelage, is coaching the]

Pelicans. Having had 26 more practice sessions than the Indiana team. Donahue’s men have had a splendid opportunty to get into mid-season form. The Rebel line averages 194 pounds and the backfield averaging 168 pounds, is regarded of ideal weight and speed. While the ‘'Scrappin' Hoosiers” have played two games this season, the full strength of tlm Crimson is expected to be developed in the encounter next Saturday. Coach Ingram will devote himself to teaching the players new formations and plays and these will he in evidence when the Hoosiers take the offensive. "Sunny” Sundstrom, line coach, will look after the forward wall men and drill in blocking and tackling will be a salient feature of the practice this week. The intersectionul contest probably will find George Fisher, giant tackle. back tn his old position. Injured before the first game, the tackle has been sitting on the side lines. Niness, a strong man in the line for two years will be Fisher’s mate. The guards in al! probability will be Bernoske and Springer, Prucha and Nessel likely will be seen at the ends and ex-Captain Butler will play the center position. The first backfield will be composed of Lorber, quarterback; | Sloate and Marks, * halves; and l Zivich. full. Coach Ingram will have two teams of reserves to shove into the game when occasion demands. o
