Stagg, "grand old man" of western football, was the most ibused man in Chicago today as J.00,00(1 football fans who wanted th sea he Chicago Dartmouth game this afternoon, found that Stagg field has room for only 34,000 Hpectator's and hat every seat has been sold for a iortn ight. Blame for inadequate seating arangements in Chicago had to be iluced somewhere by the football mad 'lopulace and Stagg, who is usually an idol, suffered the brunt of the attack. Plans for a spacious stadium at the University of Chicago are under consideration but that didn’t help the sitlation today and ticket scalpers were offered almost unbeileveable prices ■or the few ducats that they were lucky enough to obtain several weeks ago. The day dawned crisp and cloudy, mt there was virtually no threat of •ain or~a strong wind. The playing field was in good shape and conditions were believed to be just about ideal .'or Dartmouth's passing attack. Chief interest in the Dartmouth-Chi-ago game centers in the fact that the Dig Green team from New England will lay claim to a national championship if Chicago is smothered. Dartmouth is the only team in the east that has not been defeated. —o — Berne-Pleasant Milli Game Be Played Tonight The basketball game between Berne and Pleasant 'Mills, scheduled to he played at Berne last night, was postponed until tojiight, one account of the Father and Sou banquet held in Berne last night.

The Fourth Down II 1 BY WILLIE PUNT The football season which is drawing to a close lias been "ail wet," at least a major portion of it. Old Sol is doing his stuff loday. .mt he should have been on the job yesterday and Thursday if he wanted io rate Ace high with football fans today. We’re picking Dartmouth’s green clad players to dart over the Chicago goal line a time or two today. Sport Onceover of the News-Senlin-■l, is picking Central to beat South Side in the annual clash between the wo Fort Wayne public high schools loday. He says lie is basing his selecion on a lyinch. South Site sure has the better of th?'argrtWieiit' on pregame dopd. s WEI2U The Yellow Jackets called Bluffton's bluff. Schools that play basketball alone have had a difficult time keeping still during the football season. There has been considerable discussion of late regarding the shortening of the basketball season. We favor a shorter basketball season. True enough that the smaller high schools cannot play football, dut to the lack of material and the expense attacheed to the sport, but surely they can find out-door sport in which to engage during the fall months. Many small schools play baseball in the fall and it proves to be interesting pastime. Certainly, a schedule of five or six baseball games during September and October, which will give the athletes plenty of good outdoor exercise, is better than starting play in-doors the first of October. On the other hand, seven ;or eight games of football in one fall is enough for any team. A schedule of seven games would end the football season about the first or second week of Novtembr, which is plenty early to begin basketball practice. liicfficient ami unfair officials do as much to kill good clean sport as a raggifcg and unsportsmanlike crowd of fans. There goes "Red." The Yellow Jackets have completed a season, which is far from a failure. The progress of the season was marked by the steady improvement of the team. Two games were won, one tied and five lost. One of the games that was lost could easily have been won had there ben a competent referee in charge. Only a few of the players will be lost by graduation, which fact makes prospects for next year bright. We congratulate the Yellow Jackets on their season's work. It can be s.aid, the Yellow Jackets fought. ... o —- — — Monroe To Play At Brighton This Evening The Monroe high School basketball 'learn will go to Brighton this evening ! lo play the Brighlon high school quin--1 tet.
