PURDUE Will DEFEND TITLE Lafayette, Ind., Aug. 29.—(U.R> — Purdue will defend Its western con ference title this year without the aid of former Coach Jimmy Phelan and s' verul of th" outstanding veterans of the undefeated 1929 teain. After Phelan brought his team to the peak of Big Ten football he ieft the Boilermakers to become head football coach at the Universify of Washington. Pest Welch, all-American back; Red Sleight, all-American tackle; Glen Hnrmeson. all-West’-rn back, regarded as the best forward passer In the conference last year, Ed Caraway, Bill Muckle, ami Bill Woener, veteran ends, wore lost by graduation. When Phelan resign d, Noble Kizer. his assistant and line coach, became head man in the Boilermaker camp. Both Phelan and Kizer played on the Notre Dame team for Knute Roekne and used his tactics and style of teaching. Twenty-two lettermen will return th s fall, a representation that includes most of the line and half of the backfi Id that won the title. G orge Stears and Horace Buttner probably will be seen in the lint this year at their old jobs, the two guards. Don Trimble and Jack Christian, slightly smaller men, will be back, as will Sam Voinoff and Don Fasslrr, a third pair of experienced mtn for the middle of the line. The best guards among the freshmen last year were Janecek, Unger and Paulsen. George Van Bibber, contender for honors among Big Ten tackles last year, will return. In the last game of the 1930 season against Indiana. Van Bibber made Sleight s

Husar is a husky boy weighing about 190 pounds and Helmar, Inst year weighed 210 pounds. Ed Moon and Paul Calvert played as res 1 rve ends last year, and in the less strenuous games played flashily. Kizer will spend some time with Paul Moss, now a sophomore, who appeared to have the makings of a great end in frt shman scrimmages. Dick Bateman, another nt an | ready for his first varsity game, holds promise. Lewis Miller, a regular center last year, will have to play sterling ball to keep Wt sternum and Oehler, sophomores, from ousting him. Tile line, which at the start of t. e 1929 season gave Phelan his greatest worry, should not bother Kizer this fall. One of last year's stars, Alex Yunevich, who led the second half drive on Michigan after it seemed Purdue was well beaten, has two more seasons of competition. Yunevich is a powerful fulljiaek that played high school football with teams in the western Indiana coal mining region and is a certain mainstay in the Purdue backheld. Deutch and Horstman, are reserve fullbacks. Jack White, quarterback directed his larger team-mates through the entire season, his first of varsty play, without once carrying the ball from the line of scrimmage. He was considered one of the best blocking backs in the Boilermaker camp. Bill Fulton was used a few times and this year will have to

watch Hoagland, a sophomore, who is a better bull currier than either . he or White. I Kizer's chief work will lie In Tilling the bulfback position where Welch and Harmeson so long solv- ; ed the problem. Lew Pope played well In Welch's place, punting, passing and currying th ball, al 1 though In u less sp ctucular manner. Ed Risk occasionally broke loose i for some flashy running and Jimi Murvis appeared to be the fastest man on the squad. He, however, was bothered with fe t and ankl ailments all season, but may have overcome that during this summer. Os the reserve backs to see ac lion last year, Howaid Kissell, was us d tic most. He may lie usuured of a regqlur job as he is u fair passer and-goal kicker and a good ball earlier when given proper interference. Hal Chasey, a small man, shoul I get into several gatm s. There are lothe.s with fair chances — Bob Dornte, Vic Flinn and Bib Harvey. Liun Cook, who played u season when Cotton Wiicox was with Purdue will return to the university. He is eligible and is txp cted to try for one of the half back jobs. Coach Kizer has little to say about 1 the oncoming season which may decide whether or not Purdue is a big-time football school.

CARDINALS IN PENNANTTRf Chicago. Aug. 29.— <U.R) — Gabby I Str et Is willing to risk the danI ger of joining Rogers Hornsby and | Bill McKechnle In the ranks of mining' rs who lost their jobs after winning a National league pennant lor St. Louis. If he can guide the Cardinals to the 1930 flag. ■fyou see, I’ve already been given a contract for next year," Street told th United Press. "Even if I hadn't I'd be fighting to win. "Baseball writers have a lot Os fun kidding Sam Boardon about tiring Hornsby and McKechni > after they gave St. Louis its only two championships, but I don't think anyone believes St. Louis managers are sure to lose their jobs if they win a pennant. "I've found the St. Lou's man- i agement to bo square shooters, and i I hope to repay them by duplicat- : ing the record of Hornsby and Me- 1 Kechnlo in winning the p nnant 1 during my first year as manager ■ of the Cards. “My players are playfng great, ball in the face of handicaps that would stop loss courageous clubs, j. We've been without the s rvices . of such stars as Hafey, Bottomley, Frisch. Douthit and Uelbert during a large part of the s* ason nut } we're still in the race and I think , we have a clianc to win. "We showed our true form when t we took four straight to knock ■ Biooklyn out of first place. Then t we stopped the Giants and helped j the Cubs keep firstp lace. Now t we're out to help ourselves by I knocking off the Cubs in the three ' remaining games of our series.” f The Cards dealt themselves a hand in the championship game f yesterday by deputing the Cuba. 1 8 to 7, in a sensational 20-inning - contest and turned the National. 8 league race into a four team fight. With only half-a-game separating the three runners up. the Cards i*' hav an opportunity to take second j ’ place during their series with the',.

Then Injuries wrecked the club and the Cards experienced the most disastrous toad tour In the National league history, losing 15 games while winning three, and apparently dropping entirely out of the race. With the return of their injured stars, the Cards started a st udy advance but attracted little attention until they pulled Brooklyn down from first place. They con tinned their success against Boston, New York. Philadelphia and Cincinnati ami moved into Chicago yesterday with a r cord of 8 consecutive victories and 16 wins in their last 20 games. ■ r»- - BASEBALL BRIEFS Gabby Street’s St. Louis Cardinals climaxed their upward drive in t ie National League by taking an 8 to 7, 2.1 inning tassel from the Chicago Cubs Thursday. Trailing by 0-5 when they wt nt to bat in the seventh inning, the Cubs touched Grims for three runs and added the two tying nips in the eighth of. Lindsey, Grimes' successor. The .Cubs then reeled off siv scorless innings. The Cards got two in the 15th only to have the Cubs tie the siore in their half. Douthit's single Adams' infield out, and Hig.i's single gave the Cards the winning run in the 20th. The Brooklyn Robins continued their practice of ruining the New York's pennant hopes by making it two straight over the Giants, winning S to 7. A big sixth inning when they scored seven runs gave "the Robins the game and second place Vance went the route on the mourn! for Brooklyn. The Pittsburgh Pirates took both ends of a double healer from the Cincinnati Reds. 16 to 12 and 11 to 2.
