Indiana Central showed a fast a’- j taiK last Saturday against Oakland | City. If Ball lias his squad well in j hand, Butler is thef avorite to win i by a slim margin.

,BOBBY JONES BIG FAVORITE 11 ' Merlon Cricket Club, Ardmore, Pa.. Sept. 26.—<U.R)-With his fourth I major championship of the year j seemingly as good as won. Bobby ! Jones today Is meeting one of the 'few outstanding stars he never has ' beaten in a national amateur tournament, the man who gave hint the worst beating of his golfilng career. If there is to be one more upset n this most remarkable of championships, it must come today when Jess Sweetser, lion hearted New Yorker, crosses clubs with the At lantau. Back in 1922 at Brookline, on ids road to the title, Jess Sweetser | encountered Bobby in the semifinal round and defeated him 8 and 7. They never met again in an amateur championship. Jess modestly disclaimed any hope of doing more than giving Jones a good match, hut golf being the uncertain game it is, and Sweetser the gallant fighter, there was always the cfiance that the Atlantan might be caught in another of his periodical slumps. With his health restored and his eye to the straight and narrow path of par in keen as ever, the blonde New j Yorkpr is no man to encounter if one feels a slump is coming on. Thus far, Bobby has been able jto go off his game—he was nine ' strokes over par in yesterday's | quarter-final match with Fay Colej man, for instance—and still win {easily. His opponents have capitulated, some from stage fright, all ‘from inability to match shots with the Atlantan. In Sweetser. Jones is meeting an opponent of a different disposition and caliber. The other semi-finalists never have been up this far in national competition. Eugene Homans, of Englewood, N. J., is net unknown, for he tied Bobby for the qualifying medal at Delmonte only a year I ago. Charley Seaver, his opponent, iis an 18-year-old Dos Angeles ! schoolboy, blonde, stalwart, curly haired and confident. ! : ° | Tomorrow Decatur high school 1 Yellow Jackets Journey to Huntingfton, land of the Vikings, where the j Hortonmcn play their third footI ball game of the season. —oOo— Decatur has a big edge on Huntington in tomorrow's grid tilt.

BADGERS LOOM ASDARKHORSE Chicago, Sept. 26 — (U.R) —The Cnlvemlty of Wisconsin may prove the "dark horse” of the 1933 Big Ten conference race. Last year the Badgers hail tin usually fine material, Including almost she entire squad which lost only the final game of the 1928 season, and were one of the pre season favorites for the champ'onhip, but won only one of their live conference battles. This year Wisconsin has even dronger mate rlnl, hut because of i»st year’s flop is being given little onslderatlon as a title contender .nil Coach Glen Thlstl-thwalte has ■in excellent opportunity to spring a surprise. The schedule is id- ally arranged, with “breathers” against the weak -r conference teams provided prior to every meeting with a recogntz ed title contender. Tiie material is good and has been quick to learti the new "wing hack” formation, which Thistleih waile plans to use as the Badgers’ ' pr nclpal offensive maneuver. Seven xperlenced linemen and seven veteran bucks comprise the nil dens of tiie squad. Thistlelhwaite's haektield material undoubtedly is the best in years,! •ilid while the line presents a proli | lem at present some of the men I who flopped last year have cornel back to the form they showed in 1928 amt promise to hold it. Tiie backfleld is composed of passers, punters and brokenfield runners. These qualities also were present last year, but this season Wisconsin lias in addition a real bucking threat with Oman or Schneller at fullback or Gold- nherg or Nelson at quarterback. Wisconsin’s schedule Is: Oct. 4—Lawrence and Carleton it Wisconsin. Oct. 11 —Chicago at Wisconsin, j Oct. IS Pennsylvania at Wls cousin. Oct. 25 Wisconsin at Purdue. Nov.
