CARNEGiETECH IS GIVEN EDGE By Dick Miller, Written for the UP. Indianapolis. Oct. 15.- U.R> Any team on the Notre Dame football schedule might rl.ie up and smite the Rocknemen. hut if there is any one team more likely to do so th!' year, it is Carnegie Tech when It plays at South Bend Saturday. It was Carnegie that brok the Ir Sh victory string in 1926 and. if an edge may be given this year, It rhmi’d he with them. Ail but three Os last year’s 1 tter men at Carnegie have rc turned In the lineup this year, and many of the men ; had a pa.t in defeating Notre Darnel two years ago. Purdue coaches will sp nd the eek grooming a quarterhack fori „£• th vacancy left by Jack White, in' j’tred in the Michigan game. lowa. 1 the next opponent for the Bode:-! matters, naturally will point fori the game, its only Big Ten encounter this year. After a g uel-| tn., battle at Michigan l"«t Sat"’- | day, Purdue needs anything but another such tight following immediately uiterwaid. Keegan, who stepped into the Michigan game ahead of several |-»ttr>rmen and veteran reserve quarterbacks. probably will b * call • i fur the lowa game. Purdue i should win. Now that the big. Swedish boys i at Minnesota have cooled off and realise they played a great game io tie the powerful Stanford outfit, they will be just that much tougher for Indiana Saturday, al j | Minneapolis. Fritz Crisler and Tad Weiman probably spent last week perfecting d sense and can work on off |‘ enss this week. It is probable that Indiana will be the underdog, al | though Pat Page may pull a surprise. Indiana has the material and ability to win. D.rtler will play St. Louis university in a homecoming gam? at the Indianapolis bowl Friday night. The Missouri boys are doped to v in. but with Butler keyed up. an upset looms. Depauw will meet Illinois Wesley an al Greeneastl ? Saturday in another of the week end’s homecoming cards. Depauw has won i easy victories over Indiana Central and Earlham. The backfield that appeared weak before the season opened, since has shown offensive strength, but needs some defensive dr ll before Saturday’s game. Wabash goes to Illinois Friday night to tackle James Millikin. a tough assignment for Pete Vaughn’s! boys. Indiana Central will entertain In (liana State Teachers' at Indianap oils Friday night, with the Greyhoi nils holding an edge. Franklin will meet Earlham at Richmond Saturday. Rose Poly, with three consecutive victories, will go to Hanover Saturday night. Other games include Ball Teachers at Central Normal, Oakland City at Evansville and Valparaiso : at Manchester. This week’s college football pro-i gram is: Friday Afternoon Ball Teachers’ at Central Nor-1 ntal. Friday Night St. Louis University at Butler. I Indiana State Teachers’ at Indiana Central.

3 Many sport writ-is are right on the bat picking Carnegie Tech to whip Notre Dame Saturday -but a; times some of the writers get s< violent in their belief that it leads one to heli, ve that maybe they’r writing of their hopes. 000— Notre Dame has played two games and neither game was a set-up. The Rocknemen t immed the Navy almost as bad as Carnegie Tech trimmed Georgia Tech —and why should beating Georgia Tech be such an achievement—Georgia U. is the big southern team, according to records on hand. —oOo— It’ll be some game Saturday at South B< nd. but don't forget that the Ir'sh have only been beaten a time or two at home. —oOo —- Purdue should have fairly easy going at lowa next Saturday— And while Indiana is doped to lose at Minnesota, it should be a good game, with possibilities of an upset. —oOo— When this humble column reaches the read r the Decatm-Centra game will be history— H.iwevei Decatur’s chance of victory, si ni but good, is in the ability of the Jack is to play good footbal throughout. s —oOo — There’s nc difference in strength between Decatur and Centra!—The difference comes in the mind —The Yellow Jackets a ways make the task harder when it's a Fort Wayne school. —o Golf Central was Bluffton or Gar--ett or som? other school, the Jackets would rip through them in easy fashion. —oOo — Jim Lcse. son of Joe Lose, is going to South Bend Saturday to see his first college football game—Jim said this morning that he finished packing his travelling bag August 4. —oOo —■ Bisketball schedules are arriving here daily—there are a few of the county schedules still out — Hartford and Geneva, where arc you? —oOo— Along with the Monroe schedule comes the announcement that Monroe's home games will be played at both Kirkland and Decatur gyms. —oOo— Twenty years ago today Monroe high school Dimmed Decatur in an outdoor basketball game, 14-12— —oOo— A few of the old faithful teacheis at Decatur high school attend every football game—but a few of the others don't, which fact should be corrected— It is generally conceded that the athletic part of schools is a part of the many school activities—seems as though teachers would have enough school spirit to attend the games. —oOo— : Plans are bring made, provide, the Bluffton officials will thing he D catur-Suburb game to Thurs day night, Octooer 30 instead of Hallowe'en night.

Oct. 15.—<U.R>—Chicago boxing followers, having seen Al Singer in action for the first time, were convinced today that the NewYorker lacks the ability of pre'ious lightweight champions and were at a loss to understand Singer's acquisition of the titla through t one-round knockout of Sammy Mandell. S nger's Chicago debut was a orry exhibition with the champcn ’.vinning a close 10-round decis- : on from Eddie Mack. Denver colegian. in a non-title bout. Singer weighed 137. and Mack 136 1-4. Although Mack d monstrated little d> sir to v. In the tight and confined his activities almost entirely to the defensive, Singer was able to win only th:ee rounds. Mack ook two and five were even. The bout was Singer's second ■ince he won the title and the champion's supporters hoped for a lecisive victory to offset Al's nockout by Jimmy McLarnln in its last fight. Singer, however, howed neither his reputed punchng ability nor boxing skill and the ■ictory left doubt of his worthiness s a title holder rather than in-1 easing his prestige. Singer s b st round was the sixth n he took the lead for the first j I ■e in the fight. He staggered M.".ek with a stiff left hook to the jaw and slugged away with both lands until the Denver collegian' ippeared ready to drop. Singer acked the skill to put over a fin-, siting punch and Mack fell into a clinch, hanging on with both arms. le recovered quickly and before | it end of the round was giving j is good as he received. Mack took the offensive in only ! wo rounds, winning them both, de opened a cut over Singer's eye ally in the second and outpointed he champion for the balance of the session. Again in the eighth le surpr sed Singer with an attack and set the champion back on his heels with a t*o-fisted off-.nslve. Singer complained to the referee that Mack was butting, but his claim was disallowed. Singer was warned on two occas-, lons for hitting low and drew boos j from the crowd for heeling with glove and for attempting to wrestle l Mack to the floor in the clinches. | With Mack backing up during I most of the fight and Singer standing off and shadow boxing or lunging in with wild swings which miss'd their mark, the bout was a tame affair and the applause was limited to "Bronx cheers” and booing, Singer’s appearance failed to attract the expected capacity crowd, a total of 9,524 fans paying $29,159.67 to witness the show. 0 Get the Habit—Trade at Home.
