GRIDSEASON REACHES PEAK New York, Oct. 21 U.R) - Altluangh Tirr* xeaton has a month or so "run. IMo foot hail reaches sometljjig akin to a climax on Saturday when a score or more important games will be played. cue section of the country holds a monopoly on Saturday’s big game*, but the east, with Notre DamePfttsbuig. Fordham-N. Y. U., Yak-Army, and Dnrthmouth-Har-vard. has more than its share. Add to* these the colorful Navy Princeton tilt, ami the interesting Gettys-) burg-Rticknell clash, and you have j a program that will not be excelled dur tig the year. In the middlewest there is a comparative dearth of headliners, but the Purdue-Wisconsin and Mich-igan-Illinois engagements keep the I'ig Ten to the fore. Kansas and lowa State and Oklahoma and Kan -as Aggies are to battle in the big six. As stated before, the big one. meaning Notre Dame, travels toward the Appalachians for the Pitt. game. Interest centers in the south on' the Vanderbilt-Alabama game. This game will, in all probability, produce the team to fight Georgia for Ih e southern conference title. Georgia meets up-and-coming Auburn: Georgia Tech meet Tulane; Kentucky tackles Virginia, and' Florida meets little Furman in oth-' er interesting Dixie games. I In the far west Pop Warner's tied but undefeated Stanford outfit meets Southern California at Palo Alto in the coast's big game.) Washington State, with brilliant I victories over California and South-' ern California, takes a breather against Montana. Other coast games are Oregon State vs. Pacific university, and Oregon vs. Idaho. Southern Methodist's intersecticnal joust with Indiana at Dallas is the high spot in the southeastern program, with an important conference game, Arkansas and the Texas Aggies, taking the deuce spot. For the second successive week. Notre Dame's Irishmen find thews'lves involved in the nation's outstanding game. Last week their tussle with Carnegie was the big number, and this week its the Pitt Panthers who must be taught not to dream of national honors too quickly. Jock Sutherland’s boys, encouraged by a victory over sturdy Syracuse, will no doubt wage a detei mined battle, but Notre Dame, with "Moon’’ Mullins back to aid Savoldi and Co. in carrying the ball, lock a little too strong. Saturday’s game at Pittsburgh will mark the first time Notre Dame and Pittsburgh have met on the gridiron since 1912. 0 Baby Weighed 31 Ounces Twickenham.

iCARIDEO GREAT GRID GENERAL | Fly George Kirksey, • I VP Staff Correspond, nt I Chicago, Get. 21. — (U.R)— dany smart field generals are performing ]<.n middle-western gridirons this ! season. Foremost, at least for the pres- ' ent, among the selected quarter'.hacks of this region is Frank Car’i ideo, Notre Dame's crack leader i who won all-America honors by his | direction of last season's undefeati ed team. Again Carideo is performing in well-nigh flawless fashion. Three of Carideo's outstanding qualities are his knack of seizing a break and turning it quickly to his team's advantage, his refusal to get ttustrated. and his placing of punts. One of Carideo's foremost rivals i.i Lee Hanley, Northwestern quarterback and brother of the team's coach, Dick Hanley. He was the hero of Northwestern's 19-2 victoryover Ohio State and shared honors i with Frank Baker and Pug RentI ner in his team's rout of Illinois. 32-0, Hanley is a hard runner and a good passer and kicker. Three brilliant sophomore quart etbacks already have won their spurs in Big Ten competition before the end of October. They are Harry Newman, Michigan; Chuck ( Goldengerg, Wisconsin, and Lewis Hinchman. Ohio State. ' Perhaps the best of this trio is Newman, hailed as another Benny Friedman after his intelligent handling of the Michigan eleven I against Ohio State last week. But | for Newman's clever direction Michigan might have been held to a scoreless tie instead of winning.! 13-0. Newman is hailed as the greatest passer at Michigan since Friedman's day. Newman threw onlytwo passes against Ohio State bu‘ he completed both of them, one for a gain of 53 yards, and another for a gain of 21 yards, and each resulted'in a touchdown. Like Fried-I man. Newman is a Hebrew. Goldenberg seems to be one of the best all-around backs in the Big Ten. being a great blocker, as well as ball-carrier, and good field general. Under Glenn Thistlethwaite's system. Goldenberg performs a dual role of quarterback and fullback, calling signals, block ing and carrying the balls on short stabs into the line. o CLUB WOMEN HOLD MEETING (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONEi to commend ths Indiana commission on law enforcement; favor th constitutional convention; and laud the state department of conservation for its work in providing sttae playgrounds. 0 Dye Ferguson of near Willshire, Ohio, was a visitor in this city Monday afu-rnocn.

And still we have football weather. Ami still we have Garrett, Bluffton and Elkhart on the schedule. The Yellow Jackets are in fair condition and are itelng trimmed down after a 10-day lay-off for the Railroaders game Saturday. The game will be played at Country Club field at 2:30 o'clock. All kids up to a"d including the eighth grade will be admitted tree. this offer is for elementary grade pupils of all Decatur schools. Looks like Decatur would win Saturday by a couple of touch-1 downs. And we hate to predict the outcome of the Suburb game—which is an annual affair between Decatur and Bluffton and which this year will be played under the auspices of a lot of canned sunshine —but it’ll be a dark night for someone after the game. Basketball is creeping into Adams county and has already taken hold around the edges—The first Adams county games of consequence will be October 31. Decatur Catholic high school Commodores will journey to Ossian Hallowe'en night for their first net encounter. Coach George Laurent and Athletic Director Rev. Joseph Hennes are greatly encouraged concerning their prospects for a great season. The Commodores, being state champs, have a high title to keep unblemished. Local D. C. H. S. teams have led the flock in Catholic net circles in Indiana and even the United States since the early days of Coach France Conter. That the team will repeat this year is evidenced by the enthusiasm with which the boys are working into the plays every night at the Commodore gymnasium. The General Electric club basketball team starts tryouts to-’ night. Carl Smith, manager, has sent out his first S. O. S. and invites all who desire to play indeoendent basketball this season to eport at Decatur high school hardwood at 6 o'clock tonight. The G. E. club team has provided Decatur with several seasons of great basketball and this season Manager Smith stated he was endeavoring to gather together the best team ever to represent the local club. Down in the south end of the county, where basketball practice started a number of weeks ago, j •hlef talk is concerning the Jef-"erson-Berne game, scheduled for Friday night October 31. Co£ch Olen Marsh will pit his Jeffersonians against Coach Sonny Johnson's Bears in the first tilt for both teams. Berne has a strong team this vear and Coach Johnson is report-; ed to be full of new tricks —That’s -me of Sonny’s great assets, just when the other fellow thinks he’s' about ready to surrender, the Bears jump down on their rivals and thoroughly trounce them. The Marshmen, while lighter than usual, have been working hard for the opening tilt and report they will be ready to give Berne the battle or the season. DECATUR. BEAT GARRETT.

FORD BORING TUNNEL UNDER i CITY STREETS! Queer Machine Drills Through Mud Toward River’s Bank Detroit. Oct. 21-lU.R)- * ''tnnel which will supply the Ford Motor jCompany’s Rogue plant with more [water per day than .< used by the ( I cities of Detroit. Philadelphia, I (■’in l'nnati and Washington coni-1 I bitted, is being bored 60 feet ***•: »«>H*h streets, creeks and railroads., on the western edge of Detroit. The tunnel, part of a $4.000.00*), project to increase tile capac tv of) <he Rouge factory's plant.’ Is 2 2 miles long, and connects the I fnctorv with the channel of the: I Renee river. The "shield" method of bor'ne: !Is used. A heavy steel cylinder, I its end faced with a 2-inch steel ( ' p’ate. is pushed by hydraulic pie--1 sure through the soft clay 60 feet below' the surface of the groimd.) Openings 2 feet square in Ute cylinder head allow the clay to escape into the tunnel, rolling forth in thick ribbons as tooth paste comes from a tube. Workers s’.i ” off the putty-like mud and send it to the surface. The interior of the shaft is lined with steel blocks as the "shield" "reeps forward and the tunnel lengthens. The greatest care is necessary to take out only the amount of clay ' displaced by the tunnel-cylinder. [ Occasionally too much is removed through the square openings in th° shield, and the street or land above sinks in consequence; or too little dirt is removed, which compres es the earth above and forces a bulge on the snr’ace. But throughout the w'nding length of the tunnel no serious I upheaval is visible on the surface. At one spot the Ford en-
gineers were forced to burrow tin-, der a creek at •he point when, the , creek was already crossed by a! sewer tunnel. Neither 'bed nor the sewer were disturb. I ( I by the imssage of the 20-foot shaft beneath them. ( The power which advancet the | | shield is brought Io the hydraulic I Jacks by a two-kwh pipe, nt th. , 'other end of which a 125 hors.’ 'power en-fn? maintains two tons I of pressure per square inch. The shield progresses at a rate | of ajjout 40 feet, a day. The tun- j uel was started in August, 1929.) and will be completed In 1931.
