lile-bartmouth game IMPORTANT lattle Scheduled For Satur--1 day Looms As Biggest In The East By Malcoln Roy (I.N.S. Staff Correspondent) New York. Oct. 25—No longer does ting Football wait until the big games if late november to determine chainiloiiship titles, for the battles which (re waged nowadays on most October laturday afternoons have assumed ■reat importance and are just as criieal as those later in the season. No anger are the October games merely xercising contests for the major eleens. Making it a case in point, what game n the entire season looms larger from ny angle than the Dartmouth-Yale lattle at New Haven on Saturday? To ie sure. Yale has been defeated this easou by Georgia, but the football üblic thinks far less of an occasional defeat now than it used to, and Yale mil Dartmouth will take the field before another outpouiing of 80,000 to light a battle which will do much to establish one or the other fairly securely in the top flight of the season's earns And what holds true for the jartmouth-Yale encounter is good in esser measure for the Columbia-Cor-lell game at Ithaca, the Navy-Pennsyl-rania clash at Philadelphia, the Syra-cuse-Nebraska Battle at Lincoln and the Penn State-Lafayette contest at 1 Jaston. Every element that one could hope ; to find in a Yale-Princeton or Yale- ! Harvard game of two decades ago will be present in the Forth coming Dart- 1 mouth-Yale battle. Dartmouth, having already conquer- ' ed Harvard decisively, stands on the ■ threshold of greater things if it can 1 overthrow this Yale elevon Where the Yale eleven of two weeks ago which lost to Georgia had no scoring 1 punch and no real cohesion combined 1 with a failure to grasp the fundamen- ‘ tals, it now has everything that a major eleven should have and in addition ( has tremendous momentum gained by its victories over Brown and the Army. Later developments have shown that Brown was rather soft going but victory over the Providence eleven fired the Yale players with wonderful spirit and there is no denying that they literally swept the Army off its collective feet in their encounter last week. It is this aroused Yaltt eleven tiiat Dartmouth will have to beat and great as the green has proved itself to be, there is some skepticism as to whether or not it will be able to overcome the blue. Leon rotsky Under Total Political Eclipse Moscow, Oct. 25. — (UP) — Leon Trotsky, former co-dictator of Russia's 140,000,000 people, went under total political eclipse today. He was even threatened with loss of his last connection with official Soviet Russia — ordinary membership among hundreds of thousands of people in the communist party. Shorn of all power, dismissed from the executive committee of the communist party as well as of the’ government, Trotzky was hissed and booed as he tried to make a final speech at a convention here of the communist executive. o — Piece Os Wheat Straw Causes Farmer’s Death Rochester, Ind., Oct. 25.—(INS)—A Piece of straw from a wheat field brought death to Abraham Mussel, 69, farmer of near Chili, who died in YVoodlawn hospital here.

ADAMS MAKES A BOOSTER SPEECH • Vincennes Editor Now Asks Hoosiers To Make Known State’s Attractions I | Rushville, Ind., Oct. 25.— (INS)— Wilh crooked politics on the wane Indiana immediately should institute a vigorous publicity campaign to make known its attractions to the nation, Thomas H. Adams, veteran crusading publisher of Vincennes, told the local Rotary club here today. Adams, who started the present clean up of Hoosier politics and who had previously discussed little else but political corruption, surprised the Rotarians with a booster speech. Describing the change in Indiana’s political life, Adams said: “At last the voice of the people is speaking. We want every man t> make Indiana his mecca. I am for a big program in Indiana, but first I am , for decent politics and a new deal. IMy central attack was upon supergovernment. "When suddenly the press probe I committee exposed super-government, every politician in Indiana in both parties backed away from it. Both republicans and democrats ignored the demand I made for a complete and pitiless investigation. The whole legislature with Attorney General Arthur L. Gilliom’s help tried to flatten me out. "Nearly a year has passed and a governor, a mayor and other public officials have been on the griddle.” National advertising must tell the story of Indiana’s greatness to the world, according to Adams. Indiana’s meager growth of 136,000 population during the period from 1920 to 1925 was ascribed by the speaker to the fact that “Indiana does not and will not tell her story to the world or sell herself to herself.” o — Cambridge, Mass. — Tackling and blocking were the principal points stressed for the Harvard varsity fn the first work out in preparation for the Indiana game Saturday. j. _ — 1 ■ ■—

Gary (UP) City Judge C. M. Greenlee used to be a country boy, and that explains why “soft drink parlor” will be called something else hereafter in the descriptions before his court. The court says: "I am from the country and I object to the use of the w.-.qd ‘parlor’ in reference to soft drink places. The word ‘parlor’ to me means a sort of sanctuary, a place to be used only on Sunday, and I object to its use in connection with these vile places. Kindly have regard for my feelings hereafter in making descrip- j tions of places to be searched. " -— — —■■■"■ ■'—■
