The Yellow Jackets scored a touchdown in the second quarter, giving them a 6-0 lead, and it looked as though they were off to a victory at the end of the first half, as they were completely outplaying their opponents. The ball had been in the enemy's territory practically all of the opening half. Visitors Score on Pass In the second period, the visitors opened up a forward pass attack that baffled the Yellow Jackets for a while and the fleet-footed Oman grabbed a pass on his own 45-yard line and raced the other 55 yards to the goal for a touchdown. He then added the margin of victory by booting a place kick over the goal posts for one point. The Yellow Jackets had tw T o or three chances to win the game after the Columbia City touchdown was scored, but failed to push it over. The ball was lost on the 5-yard line once in the last quarter. A fumble cn the third down lost a few yards and on the fourth down. Acker failed by an inch to make first down on the 5-yard line. Decatur Scores First Decatur's touchdown came early in the second quarter, when Meyers, the fighting Yellow Jacket tackle, tore through the line and blocked a Columbia City punt on the 20-yard line. Meyers recovered the ball after he blocked the kick. After a few line bucks, Acker carried the ball over for a touchdown, but the try for point after the touchdown, faded. Decatur made eleven fire downs wide Columbia City made only three. The visitors failed to make a first down during the first half Decatur was penalized 15 yards and the visitors were penalized five yards. Decatur completed six passes while the visitors were successful with three passes. Decatur Intercepted three passes and the visitors caught one of Decatur’s passes Dierkes Makes Long Run Dierkes.

Dierkes also caught a Decatur pass after it had been fumbled by another player and ran it back 20 yards.

Derr (U. P Staff Correspondent) Chicago, Oct. 19.—(United Press)— Red Grange is being crowdeu for individual honors in the Big Ten football conference. This fact more than any other was demonstrated in Saturday's games in the middlewest. Grange has lost little, if any, of h s brilliance. His brilliant 80-yard run to a touchdown on the first play of Saturday's game between Illinois and lowa showed t4iat he is stiil/Tast and a serious threat once he gets in the open field. lowa Has Star But Grange is surrounded by a mediocre team that gives his few opportunities to show his brilliance and the fact remains that Red was overshadowed by lowa's ‘ Flying Dutchman," Nick Kutsch, who scored all of his team’s 12 points to defeat the lllni, 12 to 10. Kutsch Is playing his first year of conference football and probably will . give further demonstrations of power! with ripening experience Friedman Goes Big • Another star that threatens to push Grange out of the limelight is Benny Friedman. Michigan's great back, who took the heart oip of Wisconsin in the I ,’irst ten minutes of play Saturday Benny hurled a long pass that brought i the Wolverines their first touchdown and then received the next kick-off ] and ran for the goal. From that mo-1 ment Wisconsin was a beaten team. The final score was 21 to 0. As for championship hopes, Saturday's games ran about true to form. Some critics, of course, had expected Illinois to be in the race, but those who had seen lowa play before and knew of the weak support Grange bad, anticipated an lowa victory. Coach Fielding Yost, Michigan’s veteran coach, showed he has lost none of his cunning. The team that beat Indiana. 63 to 0, and Wisconsin 21 to 0, is going a long way toward the title. The Wolverines should have little trouble in beating Illinois next week. Chicago’s Maroons stayed in the running, despite the fact that they have not yet crossed the Big Ten goal line this season. Bob Curley booted two field goals for a 6 to 0 victory over Northwestern. The Maroons showed no variety of attadk and will have to do better if they hope to beat Penn or win another conference title. Indiana allowed some improvement by holding Syracuse to a 14 to 0 score. The Hoosiers had been expected to suffer a more crushing defeat. Ohio State gave a good exhibition in defeating the powerful Columbia team, 9to 0. Minnesota rolled over Wabash, 32 to 6, and Purdue beat Rose Poly, 4 4to 0. These two teams have yet to meet a conference opponent. , o Baker To Be Out Os Purple Lineup Two Weeks Evanston, 111., Oct. 19. — (United | Press.) —Ralph "Moon” Baker, halfback, will be out of Northwestern university's lineup for two wiceks with a torn ligament in his ankle. , Baker was kept out of the North Dakota game by the injury and a fierce tackle in the Chicago game last Saturday undid the benefits of a rest. o NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE Frankfort Yellow Jackets, 14; New York Giants, 0.

SEVEN TEAMS OUT IN FRONT Notre Dame And Yale, 1921 C hampions, Defeated In Saturday’s Games By Elenrv L. Farrell, (U. P. Staff Correspondent) New York, Oct. 19.— (United Press) — Pennsylvania, Army, Michigan, {Dartmouth, Alabama and Georgia ’ Tech rank as the leading football teams -of the country with one-half of the 1925 season behind. They remained undefeated by escaping the hectic week-end that brought about the defeat of the 1924 champion teams, Yale and Notre Dartie. and another downfall for Red Grange's Illinois team. In handing Yale (he first defeat in two seasons, Pennsylvania was par-' ticularly impressive and Penn also* showed one of the real star backs of the season in A1 Kreuse. a plunging fullback of the old school. Cadets Look Strong. The West Point cadets looked like the strongest team in the east in heating Notre Dame, 27 to 0, the largest score that was ever made against a Roekne-coached team. Da.tmouth remains undefeated with a fine looking squad, but the eleven will not he tested until Saturday when it meets Harvard. Although Ohio State has engaged in a tie game, Charley Crowley, whose Columbia eleven was defeated by the Ohio team, came back with the word that the Columbus team is a powerful one and that it could do well against any team in the east. i Michigan Has A Star He also said that Benny Friedman, the Michigan star, was one of the greatest hacks in the game , Among the leaders who crashed Saturday was Drake, Missouri valley conference leaders, which fell before Oklahoma, and Southern Califdrnia, which was dropped by Stanford. I California, Southern California and Stanford have each lost a game but California and Stanford were beaten by the Olympic clpb of San Francisco, a team consisting of former college stars. s Eddie Tryon. the veteran Colgate star, and Nick Kutsch, the lowa back, are leading their sections in point scoring. Kutsch leads the Western conference with 49 points front six touchdowns, three field goals and four points afier touchdown. Friedman, Michigan, is second w'ilh 35 points and Costerbean. Michigan, is third with 30 points. SEEKS ROTARY OFFICE Will R. Barr. Os Bluffton, Is Candidate For Office Os Governor Os Indiana District. Members of the Bluffton Rotary club are boosting Will S.

Senator I Indianapolis, Oct. 19. — (United Press t—Governor Jackson remained tight lipped ttslay while political circles buzzed with speculation as to the man he will name to fill the seat in the.senate left vacant by the death of Samuel M. Ralston. The governor was confined to his home with a bad‘cold and probably will be unable to attend the centennial celebration) at Marlon during the day. j Republican leaders who conferred with tke governor said he had reached no decision on the appointment, hut retained an open tniud. F.rst objective of various candidates for the appointment is to induce Jackson to forego any plans he may have of resigninng and having Lieut. Gov. Van Orman name him senator. • Strong pressure is being brought on the governor to prevent this move. At the same time, thousands of friends of Van Orman who would like to see the Evansville man succeed to th. governor's chair are urging that Jackson go to the senate. I The chances of Albert J.

Bunk closed cars demonstrate this most | strikingly in cross-country travel. Town or country, good roads or [ bad, it’s all the same to a Buick. You can go anywhere any car an ' go, and do it much easier becau-e of the famous, 75 horsepower, Buick Valve-in-Head engine. You can travel long distances in more comfort because of the deep, wide, luxurious seats, the extra head and leg room, and full cantilever rear springs. And Buick's ball bearing, worm and nut steering mechanism removes all driving strain. This is the most efficient and most expensive steering gear so far perfected. Better Buick closed models, are now on display. Your attention is particularly directed to the 4door and 2-door Fisher Body Sedans at “Coach” prices.
