pnw — Ingram Preparing I. IT. Eleven For Wabash Bloomington. Ind,, Nov. 12—’'Pon'i think about the victory at Coin mbitlast Saturday; think übout the do IHt font Wabash gave you last year and SB what you are going to do npxt Sat nr[Hi day In revenge," Coach Navy Bill H 9 Ingram told the members of the InH diana university football squad in Hi outlining his plan for the week. Although Wabash has not had a championship record this season. f lngram realizes the Kittle Giants HH will enter the Indiana contest at 9H Bloomington feeling that they have Wm everything to gain and nothing to lose, and will prove one of the most formidable opponents the Crimson has clashed with this full. The big Wyfll Crimson mentor also is looking ahead to Purdue the following week and will drill doubly hard both this week and next to insure a well pre i'Uh pared team for this contest. OW None of the Scrappin’ Hoosiers were injured in the Ohio State contljB test, so a short scrimmage between Mlh- second and third teams was ineluded in the Monday afternoon pracVMt.iee session. The first team was given an easy drill, spending most of afternoon in signal drill and punting practice. üßk o IgnLineiip Os Fort Wayne HI K. Os C. Team Announced) MM An announcement made Sunday by.

Work began in deep earnest Monday afternoon in preparation for the conflict. Hi Purdue's chances in tlte contest, no *a3* matter what the strength of the Crimson, will be dependent to no IjjjijH small extent on how much recovered .. P. f’npftUn Ralph Claypool is front an Injury suffered in the Chicago game, W when he broke his ankle. .The Pur8* due leader, regarded as perhaps the leading center of the Western conifi ference has not been out in uniform t* ■ 4 ■. since the Maroon game, but is hopeful of being able to get out on the field the first of next week. The Boilermakers’ line strength would be increased mightily by Claypool’s presence at ihe pivot position. o Red Grange Sure Os A Position On All-American Chicago, Nov. 12—(Special to Daily Democrat) —Long after the 1924 football season has passed out of memory; when the scores of important games are buried in the musty official record: gridiron fans will still be talking about a rod-haired young-j ster named Grange. The sensational Illinois halfback ~ was an all-American last year—when' he was a sophomore, if he failed to gain another yard all season, lie couldn’t be kept off this year's 'mythical eleven. But “Red” is more than an allAmerican. He seems destined to ocT cupy a place in the football hall ofj fame alongside Heston of Michigan.* Mahan and Bricklev of Harvard, Thorpe of Carlisle and Eckersali of Chicago. His name probably will be remembered longer than Pollard of Brown, Harley of Ohio. Gipp of Notre Dame or Oliphant of the Army. I Whether Grange is as good or better than any of those “Immortals” doesn’t matter, His brilliant runs have appealed far more to the throng;' his name has drawn more front page headlines. An automobile firm is now advertising its car as “the Red »■ Grange of traffic.” But the fact that Grange is the most advertised player in history is what makes his performance the more remarkable. When the whistle

Baker is in ihe best sense of the word a itriple threat hall' back. His running, kicking, and passing is the saving grace of the present Purple team. He i# an old grid mate of Grange.

’ started the Illinois-Michigan game. 1 eleven Wolverine players centered I their attention upon Red. They had j been warned of his speed and dodging ability.’ Red grabbed the kick- ' j off and raced through the entire ' j Michigan team, 95 yards to a touch-, !down. Before the first quarter had' ended ,he had flashed across the line four times for touchdowns. “He couldn't have done it without 1 great interference,” those who doubted Red s greatness asserted. Then came the game with Chicago and Red put a stop to all that talk lof perfect interference. His line J ' was battered to pulp by the terrific charging of Stagg's giants. Illinois was about to lose because McCarty ' and Thomas and Fra: ,is had plunged through to touchdowns and Red had only scored two. He took the ball on the pass at the 20 yard line ' and by sheer speed and strength, shook off five Maroon tacklers and j sprinted 80 yards to the touchdown that tied the score. Here’s what he did against Chi- . cago—the oniy team able to tie Illi- , nois so far this year: Gained a total of 300 yards; scored ) all three of llinois’ touchdowns; fig- > ured in seven forward passes which ) gained 177 yards; failed to gain only 1 three times, once losing a yard. , Grange has Bcored 12 touchdowns this year and played ra only one full .. game—the Chicago tussle. He leads ? the west in total points—72. i Eastern Boxers Flock To California For Fights 8 - n'nttert P-ess Staff Porr^-noncVTiO j New York. Nov. 12 —(Special to t Daily Democrat) — Eastern boxers who have been knocked out of the big dough by the lump in trade are planning to migrate in large numbers to California, where the game 1 has been brought back by a new boxing law. Jack Britton, former waiter-weight, 'champion, already is in California: Benny Leonard, the lightweight champion, announced that he is to soon for the coast, and Mike McTigue. the light heavyweight champion, also wants to duck the bad weather of the Atlantic coast | winter and the challenges of his rivals. Gene Tunney. who has been hounding McTigue . and dodging Tommy Gibbons, may go to the coast with i Leonard and he may be disturbed to find Gibbons out there after the first of the year. | o Tie Fourth Down By Willie Punt — !

Garrett, 25-12, a clever cross-buck play was used to great advantage by Garret:. Two of Garrett’s touchdowns were made on end runs, one on the cross-buck, and the other on an intercepted forward pass. Cathedral High gridders will know they've been through an honest to goodn/ss football game after they get through with Catholic High next Friday.

We can readily see. however, how he overlooked that important duty, since his Hillclimbers won the Wabash Valley championship at Peru that day. There are several leaders in the Big Ten now —according to dope. For instance: Chicago tied Illinois, Ohio tied Chicago, and Indiana beat Ohio, making Indiana stand at the top of the heap.
