THREE MANAGERS ARE RELEASED Big League Managers Looking To Their Jobs Since Close Os Season By Paul W White V. P Staff Correspondent New York, Oct. 21. —Major length managers are looking to their jobs. Since the close of the 1926 campaign three managers have been noti fied that their services will be nc longer required. , George Sisltr received his walking papers from the St. Louis Browns Bill McKeehnie was let out by th, Pittsburgh Pirates; and now Arthui Fletcher has been released from th« Philadelphia Phillies Whether there will be more new faces in directorial posts next season is not yet known. At one time th* report was rampant that Wilbert Rob inson. leader of the Brooklyn Robins would leave the tlatbush fold, but thb met with a denial from iffub officials and Robinson himself. Successors to Sisler, McKechnit and Fletcher have not as yet been ap pointed. It Is believed that the Phil lies may be managed next year bv “Stuffy” Mclnnis, veteran first base man let out by Pittsburgh in mid season. Os the three managers who havt received the blue envelope. Fletchet is perhaps the one to be most pitied He has worked manfullj to give Phila delphia a first division club in th. National league but has received litth help from club officials in the way of a satisfactory expense account for the purchase of new players. One leader who has been criticized unmercifully by the tans in past seasons apparently has won a respite. Since 19211 Miller Huggins, manager of the New York Yankees, has beet the target for many caustic remarks This was particularly true last year when the New Yorkers finished in seventh place. But the Yankees’ success in the season just completed silenced many of Huggins' critics. - ■■■ —o— HOOSIER PUNTS BLOOMINGTON — Thirty - three Hoosier football players left here at noon today for Madison, Wis., when they will do battle with the Badgers Saturday.

| The Fourth Down I AJk - w. V By Willie Punt That old line about "Stagg Fears Purdue" has lost all of i'« irony tround the Chicago campus this year. The Peru Tigers returned to the r , winning ways yesterday afternoon , tnd turned In a 25-0 win at Hunting- , :on, at the expense of the 'Vikings. , Huntington columnists aren't giving the merry razz to Bluffton quite so , frequently of late. t j The Fort Wayfie newspapers gave the Yellow Jackets a nice , writeup on their 12-6 victory over the Central Tigers last Sat- ( urday. No alibi was offered t for the Blue's defeat. The NewsSentinel even said the Blue was , out-smarted, out-play«j and even outfought. The fact that the Tigers and their followers had no s alibi to offer for their defeat . and no complaints to make is a tribute to the good sportsmanship of the Yellow Jackets and Decatur fans. A Prediction “As we're previously stated the ast high school football game of the ;eason will be staged on Nov. 13. We tad the understanding the game was ‘o take place at Decatur, but we have dnce been corrected and we are rlad to announce that it will be here. The Yellow Jackets are not such a bad playing crew, either Gave the Fort Wayne Centrals the worst of it md other teams haven't fared so veil. But when Decatur plays here ve predict the Tigers will show deermined fight and that's what is teeessary to win."—Rip Offs. Bluffon News. The Yellow Jackets are due to bare Jlfeir Lxvtbaljl and. b|'ketba.T served up in hash for the next few weeks, until the close of the football reason. Not the best ration for an ithlete, to be sure, but it seems to >e necessary. i Seven different referees will be seen in action at the home games on the Yellow Jackets' basketball schedule this season. We believe’ the school officials have acted wisely in hiring a large number of referees, in- ” stead of having one or two offi- M cials work in all of the home i games. It is better for the team ] and better for the fans to have ] a variety of officiating. a t long < as the officiating is good. A good ( , referee often ruins himself in a ] community by working too many 1 games there. Beg Your Pardon! | "Willie Punt of Decatur, does quite I t bit of deducing in his column today ' ind accuses us of quitting the Tigers ] ’old in order to take up basketball < lue to the fact that the Tigers have i not won a game. That wasn’t the rea- ] son at all, Willie, we flopped to bas- 1 ketball for the reason more Wells i county teams are now engaged in | basketball.
