second string forward wall plans will change only in event of some player showing flashy form developed over the summer. He has accurate knowledge of the ability of most of the members of his squad, obtaim «t from last seasons performances and during spring practices. What Backfield will take the gridiron against Indiana is far from certain, except that Kaskwhlch will undoubtedly be the first-string quarterback. Probably Marchmont Schwartz, will lie started at left half, but the other positions are In doubt as yet. Nick Lukats, Steve Banas, Cronin. Sheetketski and others are likely | candidates. • Down at Bloomington, the entire town is warming up for the grid season. No coach ever took hold the reitrn at the Crimson school who had more support than E. C. Hayes. He finds himself in a peculiar position, however. Despite a wealth of material, both new and veteran, the Crimson faces what has been called a "suicide schedule.” Included in his squad are Han- ] sen and Dickey, veteran ends; Joyner. Morris. Kuchins. Keckich, Waite and Hill are all experienced tackels; Joe Zeller, all-state guard, and Rasher, Rehm and McDonald I veteran guards. Vic Dauer, Opai sik, Edmonds, Hoover and Salus- | ki. 1930 backs, form an array that | should get the Hoosiers a Way to a i flying start against Ohio University. Ray Dauer may beat his brother Vic out for the quarterback j<Ai. Jones, a sophomore, should make a fine full back. Lyons, all-state high school end at Fort Wayne looked well in spring practice. Red Stevensoi| star at Lawrenceville high school. Angelmeyer, all state t om Goshen and Sabik and Sawicki should he valuable additions to the team. Indiana's sched- : ule this year is Notre Dame, lowa. | Chicago. Ohio State, .Mic higan, i Northwestern and Purdue. Noble Kiser began his second year as Purdue coach yesterday. With one year under his belt, aifd some fine material to work with, Kiser predicts a fine season. H*> lost two backs. KisSell and Pope, but from a large array of sophomores Carter and Moore stand out the brightest. Jack White, who faltered a bit as varsity quarterback last year, will no doubt he wiser this year. If he fails, Paul Pardonner heads a list of likely men to take his place. The addition of Frank Carrideo. all-American Notre Dame quarterback, to the Purdue staff as bac k field coach, is expected to give White the spark missing from last year’s machine. As for the line, Kiser himself and Mql Edward are expected to whip together a forward wall that will measure up to the standard of th? ball toters.

FRENCH SOCIAL INSURANCE LAW UNPOPULAR NOW Movement On Foot To Seek Repeal Os Legislation Paris, Sept. 16. —(U.R) —The newest development in French social legislation, the compulsory Social Insurance for alj workers whose annual salary does not exceed S6OO, is meeting with growing unpopularity and there is a growing movement, outside of party lines, for the repeal of this legislation. Theoretically the scheme sounded ideal to the political groups of the left and they forced its passage through parliament. All workers employed at a minor wage were to contribute five per cent of their] salary to the state insurance fund, their employers contributing the same, and thereafter the workers I and their families were to live hap-1 pyPractically, the scheme has not | worked out so well. Many labor- i ers refused to contribute and asked for five per cent wage increases so I that the insurance payments would not come from their wage envelopes. That brought an immediate reaction in living costs. Injured Workers Workers who w’ere injured and I sought to collect insurance on their , claims found that they had run I into endless red tape. Under thisj insurance scheme, workers who are injured pay but 15 per cent of their druggist’s bill, the state paying the remainder. In case of serious in- ' jury, insured workers can be put on half salary for six months, there-, after receiving a pension during any absence up to five years. Women workers about to become mothers are excused from work and ! pensioned at half salary for six weeks before the date of birth and ] six weeks after the birth. There j is a definite pension for workers i reaching 60 for the remainder of their lives. The pension at 70 averages less than $5 a month. Death Duties There is also a demand for a (townward revision of the heavy death duties which the state 1 charges all estates. These duties
