SEVERAL UPSETS IN HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL GAMES Central, of Fort Wayne Is Credited With Biggest Upset oj Week-end By Dick Miller, UP Special Correspondent Indianapolis, Oct. 7. — (U.R) — Coach Murray Mendenhall’s central high school football team of Fort Wayne presented the surprise package in football last week over the state when they defeated Chelsea Boone’s Elkhart eleven 40 to 6. It was six years ago that the two teams began mixing it on the gridiron but the Fort Wayne boys never knew the taste of a victory until last Saturday. Two ball toting halfbacks, Biggs and Babb, made the upstaters dizzy as they slashed tackles, circled ends and romped over the chalk lines for touchdowns. Undoubtedly it was the day's biggest upset and ranks Central at the top in prep grid circles. An argument between South Side of Fort Wayne and Huntington last spring over a baseball championship, recently ended when Huntington withdrew from the Northern Indiana High School conference. Imagine the feel lug that existed between the two teams when they met in football at Huntington Saturday. Had the argu-i ment last spring been a question of ■ football the Fort Wayne team would 1 have settled it to the satisfaction of | all for the Green Archers defeated I the Vikings. When Coach Waldo Fisher spurred i his Muntrie team on to a tie with the rivals of Newcastle a week ago he must have sent them into a winning disposition for Saturday they con-1 tinned their inspired performances’ and upset the fast going Logansport Berries, 16 to 0. It appears that the north end of the state grid championship will be settled the same time as the Gary city championship. Horace Mann of Gary swamped Mishawaka Saturday, 34 to 0; Froebel outplayed Hammond, 21 to 1; and Emerson displayed power in trouncing Michigan City, 32 to 13. As the steel city boys mow down the' northern conference teams one by one | the interest leans toward the city series with each of the three teams, looming strong. t The big dent in the dope bucket in I the western Wabash valley circuit was made by Garfield of Terre Haute. The Purple Eagles were figured without much chance before their struggle with the "kings of Sullivan" a big and powerful eleven scored a 10 to 0 win. Wiley of Terre Haute had tough time of it at Worthington winninglll31 to 6. Western Indiana has two great prep school halfbacks this fall in Tobin ot Greencastle and Fuqua of Brazil. Tobin lead his team to a 98 to 0 victory over Shelburn this weekend, scoring 64 points himself. Fuqua, the whole show of the Brazil backfield this fall, a perfect triple threat man, was at his best while Brazil defeated Crawfordsville. 45 to 9 Clinton got back into the win column again defeating an old mine region rival, Bicknell, 13 to 0. o STANDINGS National League W L Pct.

Oct. 7. —(U.R) —The eve of another world series, post-season feature of baseball, finds the contenders evenly matched, and both clubs ready for the brief but strenuous struggle. To an impartial oversever it appears that the Chicago Cubs have an excellent chance of wiping out memories of successive four-game victories for the American league, and of defeating the Philadlephia Athletics this year. It is true the betting odds favor the American league champions, bitt in baseball wagering is by no means in-1 dicative of eventual victory. Both clubs have enjoyed the best' of luck as far as personnel is concorned. The Athletics, so frequently hampered by injuries in the past, have gone through a highly successful season with all their regulars and replacements intact. The Cubs lost their captain and first baseman, Grimm, for about six weeks, but he is back as good as ever. 0 Joe McCarthy, manager or the National league champions, agreed to announce this morning that Charley Boot would be his starting pitcher. Connie Mack, whose Athletics were due here at noon, said he would not tell who«would start until tomorrow, but it is no secret that it will be ‘‘Lefty’’ Grove. The club which wins the first game in a world series enjoys a tremendous advantag*-. rroth psychological and mathematical. In the forthcoming series everything favors the Cubs. They are opening at home, on a field which will be strange to their rivals. They have in their lineup a number of “money players” who are ready to put in their best licks. No series in recent years has aroused the strenuous enthusiasm which will be on tap this week, and possibly next. Nearly two decades ago the Cubs and Athletics met ip the world series, and the latter won in four out of five games. Since that time, Chicago, city and ball club, has been waiting for revenge. Local enthusiasm over the series has reached a peak which one would scarcely have credited in view of Chicago's disastrous experience with its late world series, the affair in 1919 when the White Sox threw the engagement to the Cincinnati Reds for a consideration.. ** Apparently all memory of those bitter days have been wiped out, and the city once more is backing its ball club with the last cheer and the last dollar. The weather forecast for the series is favorable, which is just as well since postponements would interfere seriously with arrangements. Two games will be played in Chicago, on Tuesday and Wednesday, after which the clubs will journey to Shibe park, Philadelphia.

Huntington. after a hard battle man aged to keep step with Decatur am lost another game—This time to the South Side grid aggregation. The Yellow Jackets go to Portland next Satutday. If the Jackets don’ get a little more confidence in them reives—it’s hopeless. They’re big enough and know a lot of football —bu* the old niachine sure needs its valves ground. And Gee Whiz there’s Gerber, Browt Musser, Hurst, Zerkle, Williams, and Schnepp—that are good enough to play on any football team —and then De belt, Hain. Green and Roop, in thi backfield -What in the world is the matter boys? Then we’ve got a lot of good reserve stuff—Well if we don't win at leas three out of four games, the rest ot this season —Jackets, you ought to b< ashamed of yourselves. The caddies at the Decatur golf course are still finding golf balls in the woods with Bluffton markings on them. And now we know why Blufftor golfers don’t pay any attention to all these 72-hole guarantees for golf balls What's the use if you only use a ball for five or six holes and then push iinto the tall grass. Pete and Kay can have a lot of fut this week telling all about the Bluff ton-Auburn game. Which reminds us that according to the law of averages a poker player can draw a straight ii the middle cnee out of 1.090 attempts “Cousin Brick" Tyndall, who wander ed away from the fertile fields of Ad am.- county a year ago or so and since that time has been making a vain es fort to “dtess up" the male population of Bluffton —returned in a sad condl tion Saturday night.

WE’RE STI.LI PICKING THE CUBS. Pete. The game by innings will be carried each night in the DAILY DEMOCRAT if you want to know the score, cal! 1900 or 1901. There were 49 guesses on the Deca-tur-North Side game and we've got them counted but can't announcy the winner until Tuesday —because— we m st admit we were heart-broken over Sunday after Cousin Brick startled the town Saturday night by cheering for the west suburb, and just couldn’t work Sunday. In the meantime Folks, send in you: guesses on the Decatur-Portland game WE STILL FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT ATHLETIC OFFICIALS SHOULD CARRY RULE BOOKS WHEN OFFI CIATING HIGH SCHOOL EVENTS And we've learned too why Pete, in Grid Gabs, sides in with the officials —it is a known fact’that Pete was a wlustle-iooter once— which makes, us laugh heartily — we remember now that Pete worked a Decatur-Bluffton Second team game once—and we also remember that following the game we were unable to break through the mounted police to tell Pete what wi thought of him— And that’s one exception to the rule —lt wouldn’t do Pete any good to havt a rule book handy when he’s officia ing a Decatur-Bluffton contest. Decatur lost that contest on a foul. Kay, let's you and I start officiating! Let's take ’em as they come. Jack ets-Beat PORTLAND —at least play 69-minutes of football-next Saturday All the Conference teams came through Sa’urday except Indiana — which was expected. And next Saturday the Conference season opens in earnest. Central of Fort Wayne continued its hammering drive toward the state high school football title Saturday by defeating Elkhart, 40-6. Typewriter behave! It hurts — but here's CONGRATULATIONS TO BLUFFTON. At the world series opener tomorrow folks who were lucky enough to get iieserved space inside the big Ixiard ) fence will see Martie Mylott and "One- | Eyed” Conolley in boxes —and unless i he forgets his tools and has to rush ! home. Irish Pat Hyland, well-known ' northern Indiana athletic official, I WHO BELIEVES IN CARRYING A I RULE BOOK, will also occupy a box

FALL BRIBERY TRIAL OPENS Former Interior Secretary Arises From Sick Bed To Attend Trial Washington. Oct. 7 —(U.R) — Albert B. Full arose today from his sick bed where he has been ill with bron- ! chit is for several days and went to District of Columbia supreme court for the opening of his trial on a ’charge of bribery. The 68-yeor-o’d former interior secretary moved feebly, and had to , tie helped out of th? car nt the court house. Fall was attended by several members of his family. His color was fairly good and he smoked a big cigar. Earlier in the day his physician had expressed doubt that he would lie able to attend court. Fall reclined in a huge green leather upholstered arm chair that was brought into the court room for him. He was dressed in black. ■ Fall listened impassively as Justice William Hitz read a decision overruling tile defense pleas of double jeopardy attacking validicity of the bribery indictment. Calling of jurors was started at once, after defense j counsel noted an exception to the ruling. Dr. 11. T. Safford and a trained nurse sat beside Fall and the counsel . formally entered a plea of "not guilty" for the aged cattle man. The first 12 talesmen called included three negroes and two women. o— Shipwreck Toll Is 45 Off Coast of Norway Copenhagen, Denmark. Oct. 7. —(U.R) —Forty-five persons were drowned and others were rescued from choppy seas last night when the Norwegian steamship Haakon VII was wrecked in a heavy fog near Floroe on the west coast of Norway.. The vessel sank; in three minutes after striking rocks, and indescribable panic was reported. The captain wa-«. found later on a desolate cliff, suffering so badly that he was unable to explain the disaster. ' The Norwegian steamer San Lucar hurried to the rescue of the sinking {craft and picked up 57 passengers and members of the .crew. Another steamer. Arnfinn Jarl, belonging to the same company which I owned the Haakon VII. piled through I the fog and was wrecked some 509 yards from where the Haakon VII sank.
