7-- — Frat Freshmen I Get Paddling In Co-eds’ Presence Des Moines, la . Nov. 3.-- (United Press) —Freshmen at Drake university I) who are pledged to various fraterni- ) ties aufered the ignominy of releasing tair co-eds from the arms at a dance here last night and being paddled by r 300 upper classmen. ’ The older students descended upon the freshmen dance, armed wljh regulation fraternity paddles, ordered their freshmen to release their partI ners, and then used the floor of the , ballroom for paddling while the coeds 1 looked on and giggled. I The punishment was meted ouj be- ' cause the freshmen had violated cer--1 tain fraternity rules, the upper classmen explained. Police were called to quell what threatened to be a riot hut 1 they made no arrests. 1 ■ session. If the minor'league club owners do not .favor the organization of such a new class they will be asked to adopt ' some kind of a plan to restrict the number of experienced seasoned players and players under option in Class B leagues. The innovation is the idea of Michael H. Sexton, president of the National association, who .expressed his idea in a letter received today by the writer. "The great need of baseball talent in the majors and the larger minor leagues has become quite apparent," he said “It will he my endeavor at the meeting of the association to try to open the way for more young ball players, boys from the amateur ranks, high schools, colleges and independent ■ clubs to bcrak into the professional . baseball ranks.'

Next week the officials will hear W. * L. Hughes, head coach at De Pauw University and later in the season other prominent coaches will speak.

After bail crosses side line A fouls but recovers ball.

Ind , Nov. 3—lndiana I University football followers are look- . ing back on the gridiron record of , 1924 in venturing opinions on the , Ohio State game at Columbus, Ohio, ■ Saturday afternoon I>ast year the "Scrapplu’ Hoosiers” were doped to get a severe trouncing at the hands of the Buckeyes but , the mighty band of Crimson warriors J swept Ohio State oil its feet in the first few minutes and playing a’ • steady game of football battered Ohio 12 to 7. The game was regarded by' , the sport critics as the hardest I fought affair on the Indiana schedule Indiana succeeded in making four , more first downs than the Ohioans and broke their aerial attack to pieces, leaving the Buckeye players hopelessly lost. A few minutes after the game was under way Salmi shot a pass to .Marks, this year's captain, who raced across the goal line for the first, Hoosier points. The vaunted Ohio line was no barrier to "Larry” Marks. * and he pounded through holes opened by the viciously charging forwards. A 55 yard run which paved the way for his second touchdown was Marks' best contribution of the afternoon. He eluded the entire j Buckeye machirfe in making ,-diis I longest sensational run. Klee slipped over for the only points scored by Ohio. j Marks and Salmi will be found again opposing the Buckeyes Saturday but several of their teammates of 1924 will be missing. Ohio no doubt will have a special defense worked up to check the tactics of these two brilliant Hoosiers. To hold the team steady and on edge for the homecoming and stadium dedication ganye with Purdue here Nov. 21 and yet to defeat the Ohio * State eleven, is the aim of the Crimson this week Rose Poly is on the , Indiana schedule for Nov. 14 but the | Terre Haute school is not expected .to bother Ingram's machine to any! 'great extent j The ’’Scrappin’ Hoosiers” will t leave for Columbus, 0.. Thursday | , evening, getting in the Ohio capitol early Friday for a workout In the stadium that afternoon. About 30 players will make up the I. U. squad, jlt is probable that the Indiana R O ! jT. C. band, which followed the team to Northwestern last week, will accompany the Hoosier gridders to' Ohio. A special train carrying Hoosier rooters is also a possibility. —Subscribe For The Daily Democrat—
