ON THE SIDELINES THE BIG TEN South Bend. Ind.—-A phanton Crls Cagle flashed across Notre Dame's gridiron anti was stopped cold by the second stringers. It wasn't the real Cagle, Army flash, who failed to gain against the Irish but they feel certain they can stop the Army's plunger, when they meeh Saturday at West Point, The regulars rested yesterday but were screduled tor a regular workout today. Minneapolis — The C.ophers have settled to real work in preparation for the Indiana game Saturday. Tanner, one of the Minnesota cripples, was out yesterday for practice but Gibson, Johnson, Nagurski and Pharnmer still are nursing injuries. Bloomington, Ind. — Coach Page faces a difficult problem in going against the powerful Gophers next Saturday with most of his stars hurt. Randolph, stellar linesman, won't be in the game and Harrell, punter and quarterback, probably is out for the season. Capt. Bennett Is nursing a weak shoulder and Reinhardt won't be able to start. Page is shifting his lineup to strengthen his defense. lowa City—Coach Ingwersen has found plenty of flaws in the lowa play and made a lot of substitutions yesterday at the practice session. Second string backs pierced the var s ty line at will and made short work of the first squads forward passes. McLain, with a bandaged hand, fumbled repeatedly. Several shakeups are predicted before the Ohio game Saturday. Columbus, O. —Ohio, minus the services of five stars, got down to intensive work as the lowa game neared. Fouch, Raskowxki, Barratt Coffee and Cory were on the sidelines. Coach Wilce has a good bunch of substitutes and anticipates no difficulty in rounding out a smooth working eleven by the end of the week. I/rfavette, Ind.—Coach Phelan has his Purdue gridders in high for | Northwestern Saturday. The Purple l bag of tricks, used yesterday by the j scrubs, proved puzzling to the varsity and Phelan promised considerable skull drill before Saturday, With the exception of Miller, fullback, the Boilermakers are in good condition. Evanston, 11l. —The Northwestern lightweights will be depended upon by Coach Hanley to turn back the Boilermakers. The Purple team is in tiptop condition and w*ll undergo i only light practice for the rest of the' week. Ann Arbor, Mich.—Warned that the Navy football players are "tough cookies,” the Wolverines are taking 1 all precautions to avert a let down ! in morale. Yesterday the freshmen j ran through Navy plays against the first stringers. Considerable scoutiug has given Coach Wieman a good ' line on the Middies. They meet in I Baltimore Saturday. REPUBLICANS CARRY STATE tOONTiyi'sn kho.w rti.u .oki votes the Republican candidate led by in many counties continued to add to his apparent majority. United States Senator Arthur R Robinson, doubtless has won the reelection. The count in the senatorial race showed Robirson, 782,701 and Albert Stump, 651,651. Throughout the present campaign, the governorship race has been the fiery point and the close vote bore out pre-election predictions that it would be a "horse race.” Burt Fuller. Leslie’s campaign manager, today claimed that his candidate would win hy 50,000 votes. R. Earl Peters, Democratic _state < hairman, countered to this with a refusal to admit that Dailey had been defeated. Peters said that "one the face of incomplete returns" he still had "hopes that Dailey would regain the lead.” While nine of ten Republican congressmen appeared to have won their seats again. Ralph Updike, seventh district congressman seems to have been unseated by the vote which went to Louis Ludlow, Democrat. Two of the three Democratic congressmen appeared to hold safe maj rities while the third held but a slight advantage on incomplete returns. Twenty Try Out For Bluffton H. S. Quintet Bluffton, Nov. 7.—Twenty Bluffton high school students reported for the lirst basketball practice Monday evening at the Cherry street gym. About twenty-five other students not out for football signified their Intentions of reporting for practice but did not have their suits last night. Another practice will be held Wednesday. Efforts are being made to schedule a game with the Union Center high school five. Efforts to schedule the Peru game have been unsuccsesful and negotiations with Union Center have been practically completed with the exception of a definite date.
S. Carolina Teams In Title Battle I Pfl O *• -«au<6, \ \ CAU6H< \ \ SS%n <&-_4 Football in South Carolina is not always played on a schedule that gives with the dates other teams follow. For example, the University bearing tea name played its big game with Clen - son on Thmsday October 25. Thursday of this week the Citadel is met at : Orangeburg. These oddities ate due to the fact that state and cunty fairs draw ] tremendous crowds. In order to help I draw larger crowds and also to cash In i on the gate already there the leading local elevens already there the leading local elevens so stage their big games. The state university should have no trouble defeating The Citadel tomorrow. The former, after years cf effort, has lined up some great material, as proven by its early season victories over Chit ago and Virginia. When Wake Forest was running wild in the South a few years ago South Carolina! using the same formation that made t.ie latter team a winner defeated it in] the final game of the season. One of | its pet passes ftom this three-men-out formation is given here. The cue shown I yesterday was first used for the par--1 pose of making this one go. With Nos. 1 and 6 jumping from the i black positions to the others, No. 4. then eligible for a pass, stood on tbe, line as if awaiting it there in order to, draw the chaige and attention of fht j defensive half covering him. As tne j latter rushed forward to break up the| pass. No. 4 cut past him at top speed | and caught it 5 yards down the field j and ran for a big gain. Tomorrow —tl:» j i defense that will always stop the three-j I men-out attack.

Herbert Hoover appears eeitain i'< equal the record breaking vote of 404 which Harding received In 1920 and is likely to go beyond it. By carrying all of the 51 electoral votes which still lemain in doubt. Smith could only equal the low vote of 127 which James M. Cox Democratic candidate, received in 1920. Yet in the face of this disaster, Smith is polling a tremendous vote and while lie lost his own state of New York he is still slightly ahead in doubtful Massachusetts. Stranger yet, be is leading In Utah, one of the two states to stay with Taft in 1912. Smith is running strong in Rhode Island which still is doubtful. Smith seemed sure cf only Alabama Georgia, Louisiana. Mississippi and South Carolina in the heretofore ’’solid south” and had in addition Lie five electoral votes cf Rhode Island. The doubtful states were Massachusetts, Montana. North Carolina, Texas and Utah, and of these, Smith led only in Massachusetts. Hoover is upsetting all expectations by his tenific vote in the South. He has canied Virginia and is ahead In Florida. In Texas he and Smith have been seesawing back and forth for twelve hours. Gcvernot Smith took Rhode Island out of the doubtful column when he ca.ried it by the slender margin of 1493 votes according to unofficial returns. Which gave Smith 118,901; Hoover 117,438. The states which continued doubtful this forenoon were: Massachusetts, Hoover 601,589; Smith 616.456. Montana Hoover 14,550; Smith 13,473. Texas Hoover 235.936; Smith 228,775. Utah i Hoover 9,809; Smith 10.29 G. On the ba~is of United Press figures from all sections of the country the tabulations today stood as follows: Electoral vote: Hoover 404. Smith 81 Doubtful 46.

ver 12.447,179. Smith 9,472,539. Hoover , majority 2,974,620 Hoover also has carried b tli houses of congress with him by increased Republican majorities. The Republican insurgents apparently have lost their balance of power in the senate. Republican domination at both ends of Pennsylvania avenue in Washington has been assuted. The count still was incomplete today, but it was sufficient to reveal that Ames lean voters, In numbers never before mobilized, have spoken firmly f t continuation of the policies of the Coalidge administration upon which Hoover based his appeal for election. Immediately tlie result was known. F. Scott Mcßride, head of the Anti-Sa-loon League, issued a statement declaring the tesiilt as "A thorough vindication of the Anti-Saloon League”. He said the result would be accepted by the world as "convenclng evidence that the American people console prohibition the best method or dealing with the liquor problem and that they are determined to maintain the eighteenth amendment.” Different interpretations probably will be placed on the result. Some will see in it a vote of confidence in the Republican party; Others will regard | it as a vote of confidence in Hoover: j and others may feel that religious feel- 1 I ing had much to do with the outcome, j 1 Just what elements were decisive is a j : subject for endless debate. Crushing as Smith's defeat has been Hoover’s electoral vote exceeds that! cf the Coclidge landslide—He has demonstrated great popularity and the actual vote is closer than the ratio in the ' electoral college. The most surprising element of j Smith’s defeat was his Lss of New j York, the state which has four times i elected him governor, once in face of. a Coolidge landslide. Many Republi-j | cans in New Yo. k, who had supported I I him as Governor, apparently did net i support him for President. 11 is New Yoik City vote was not sufficient to overcome the errific upstate majorities j for li. over. Equally su;-nixing was the breaking of the solid south. Hoover was victorious in Old Virginia, the mother oft Presidents and capital cf i'ne old confederacy, and all through the South, i except in South Carolina and Louisiana, polled tremendous votes, Smith, j However, ran up a heavy vote in Mns- | sachusetts. Governor Smith's campaign strategy j jin the farm belt/appeared to have failed completely. Hoover carried the! j farm belt solidly despite his refusal to endorse the McNary-Haugen bill in i any respect. Smith said he favored j the fundamental principle of the Mc-Nity-Haugen bill but he avoided cun- ! mining himself on the equalization fee j specifically. However after Senator I Ncrtis cf Nebraska declared for Smith. ; Hoover announced he would call a spei rial session of congress to deal with | farm relief if elected. Norris failed to carry Nebraska fn*Smith and his appeal was without fruit f r the Democrats in the Dakotas and Minnesota, in Wisconsin Senator Blanc and may Lafollette progressives worked for Smith, but were unable to carry him thiough. in the east. Smith piled up tremendous votes but here again his strategy did net carry him through. He ignored dry sentiment in the South, believing those states would remain Democratic, and he turned to the wet states of the east with his direct appeal for a repeal cf the volstead act and a modification of the eighteenth amendment. This was thought to be sufficient to ca:.y New York State for him but to the surprise of the nation he fell behind. In Massachusetts, Smith polled a tremendous vote and the outcome was In doubt for many hours His iiquor position w-as largely responsible fer this plus the heavy Catholic vote in the state. While Hoover was expected to run strong in the south, few anticipated the turnover in Virginia and the strong race in Florida and Texas. Religion and prohibition were the big factors andall cf the southern states the voters broke away froin their regular Democratic party leaders who were practically 100 pei cent behind Smith. Hoover’s election was conceded by the New York World and the New York 1 imes, pro-Smith newspapers, within three hours after the heavy returns began to come in last night. AtKut one A . M. today Governor Smith having the cold figures as they . poured in, admitted defeat and sent a . telegram to Hoover which said: 1 congratulate you heartily on your I victory and extend to you my sincere i wishes for your health and happir ness and for the success of your ad- . ministration.” , Smith had been buoyed up with h. pesos victory in the closing days of I the campaign by the tremendous crowds which greeted him with almost . hysterical enthusiasm wherever he . went on his eastern speaking tour, i It was Mrs. Smith’s birthday and as the returns begin to go against him, , her disappointment added to the keen- > ness of his. Yet he took it as part of the game and almost as soon as newsI Papers supporting him conceded his defeat, he sent his congratulations to t . his opponent.

Added proof that Hie first few min- , utns in any football game are usually . the m st important has been supplied r j by Me Aimy's undefeated eleven in three of Its most important games. The Cadets beat Southern Methodist, *| Hatvaid and Yale hv piling up all their . 1 points in the first half.

Southern Methodist almost bowled • j Me Army over by getting away io a - flying start In the first quarter, bat : the Cadets fought fire with fire and - j overcame the Texan's eatly lead witli t two touchdowns in quick succession r I The final score was 14 to 13. Against Harratd the Army took adM vantage of the Crimson’s mistakes in lithe first half and scored two touch--j downs and a safety and then settled j back to protect the lead during the . last half.

Chris Cagle's two sensational dashes ' Ihrr.ugii the Yale team in the first halt enabled the Army to win. IS to 6. Yale came back in the last half to outplay the Army but Cagle’s two long runs in the first half were enough to give the ; Cadets victory. The game had barely | started when Caglefeltyped away for 51 j yards and a touchdown in the first perj iod. A little later Cagle broke away for j 76 yards and another touchdown in the i second period. Harvatd profited by its disastrous I experience against Aitny and the next I week beat Dartmouth by getting the jump and scoring a touchdown in the first quarter. Capt. French intercepted a pass in midfield early in the opening ! period air! the Crimson straightway ! marched to touchdown and eventually i won the game i 9 to 7. Nebraska won an important intersections! game from Syracuse by recoverj ing a fumble in the first period and j converting it into a touchdown and ; subsequent goal after touchdown. Syracuse outplayed the Cornhuskers the , : est of the game, but lost 7 to 6. New Yoik University is another f. oti ball team that believes in scoring as I s °f»n gnrt as often as possible. The Violets scored an overwhelming victory ver a strong Colgate team by getting .away to a flying start. Crowley’s Views Charity Crowley, Columbia coach, believes more football games are won and lost in the first five minutes of play than any ether time.

KRAMES As case after ease of health recovery through Konjola is reported, the fame of this remarkable medicine grows. That this compound of 32 ingredients is victorious in cases wherein all else has failed, is strikingly proved by ten statement of Mr. . A W. Krames, prominent contractor, • 1111 Ohio street, Michigan City, Indiana. He writes; I "Konjola is the most wonderful remedy In the world, for It ended my . kidney and stomach troubles af.er ail . else had failed.

My kidneys, besides enua- . ing extreme pain, got me up frequent- . ly at night. As all had failed me, I felt that I was beyond human relief, i A number of friends urged me to f give Konjola a trial, and glad am 1 x that I did. Eight bottles made a new t man of me.

If you can scare first, Hie other fellows will he playing uphill the re«t of the day.” Knute Roekne and other coaches who practiced the plan of starting their second team and allowing them to weat down the opposition before sending in file regulars have abandoned such tactics this season. The Illlnois-Michlgan game of 1924 Is an outstanding example of what may happen when one team gets the jump. Red Grange tan two kickoffs back for touchdowns in the first period and a go'd Michigan team went to pieces and Illinois won as it pleased. —o : Knight Os Columbus To Install Officers The installation of the new officers of the Knights of Columbus will be held Monday evening.
