Oct. 19.—(U.R)-A fighting Wisconsin team, smarting under a defeat which it believes never should have come its way. today was determined to halt the national championship aspirations of Coach Knute Kockne's Irish from Notre Dame. Given only an outside chance to ■win, the Badgers believed they will show a complete form reversal to that of last week-end when they were defeated by Northwestern. So highly favored was Rockne's team that it was possible to get 12 points and even money that Wisconsin won't win. Notre Dame's prestige was enhanced considerably last week-end when | it downed the Navy. The form shown ] by Rockne's men in that game indi-l cated that the Irish must be given' national title consideration. Until last week-end. Wisconsin was: one of the favorites to win the western conference title. It was believed that Coach Glen Thistlethwaite had developed a team which was capable of carrying off Big Ten honors. But the Northwestern game failed to bear out this prediction Results of previous games between Wisconsin and Notre Dame follow: 1900 —Wisconsin, 54: Notre Dame. 0 1904—Wisconsin. 50; Notre Dame, 0. 1924 —Wisconsin. 3; Notre Dame. 38. 1928 Wisconsin. 22: Notre Dame. 6.

- ■ A week from today we'll either feel mighty good ot exceedingly HueNext Friday is the Decatur-Bluffton gr d game- It's to he played here and the game starts Friday afternoon at 3 o'clock. Extra Bull—etln —Fred Schurger. well-known lawyer, abstractor, and farmer held a bunting party at 6 o'clock this morning. A. R. Holthouse. our boss, and his two sons “Jim" and "Dan” were Fred's guests —After tramping over the Schurger estate from 6 to 8. Jim and Dan got [the biggest thrill of their lives when Fred caught a rabbit right between the eves. The Holthouses had rabbit: for dinner today and Jim got the leg and Dan the “gitzard.” Roger, former conductor of a sports column in the Bluffton News has challenged Footbawls to a Yo-Yo match as a preliminary to tire BlufftonDecatur football game next Friday—and Footbawls hereby accepts — and we'll furnish the rule book, too. We just thought all along that Roger dropped his column for some good reason and now the story has leaked out that he has been spending about six hours each day Yo-Yoing in order that the west suburb might beat Decatur in SOME athletic event. The first Yo-Yo victim in Decatur is George Helm—the strange little top which he was whirling jumped right up and hit him in the eye. leaving a black circle all around —some of the bovs who know- George say it wasn't that at all—but that instead of the top finding his eye, it was his gir. s strong right arm. Oh my, Oh my, what great football days —and. what , great football is being played all over the United States these great football days. Upsets are becoming as usual as football games. Footbawls doesn't feel so bad always picking the w-rong team—Most sport writers of the country are batting about .250 this season in pick-1 ing winners —and some of them don t | even sober up by Monday. The Yellow Jackets are preparing’ for the game of the year next Friday | afternoon —It's going to lie a great . dav—lndications are that there will be at least 2.500 people at the game. ■ Bluffton enthusiasts say there Will:, be about 1.000 present from the west . suburb. Among the big attractions today ( are the Northwestern-Minnesota. , Notre Dame-Wisconsin, Ohio StateMichigan and Indiana-Colgate games. We'd hate to try and pick a winner in any of them. And still a few play golf. WE FIRMLY AND HONESTLY BELIEVE THAT AN OFFICIAL SHOULD CARRY OR HAVE ACCESS TO A RULE JiOOK WHEN OFFICIATING ANY HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETIC EVENTBEAT BLUFFTON. Bill Linn. Cal Peterson. Fat Myers and Bob Helm all want to go to the Bluffton-Decatur game next Friday Footbawls believes they would be willing to close their stores for an hour and a half-Wouldn't it be great if all the stores would close during the game. And speaking of clothing stores, all four of Decatur's stores, are four of the best posters school athletics in the country. Let’s decorate some windows and make a real day of next Friday—you won’t be sorry folks.
