INDIANA PLAYS OHIO SATORDAY ■ Hoosiers Open Big Ten Football Campaign At Columbus, Ohio 'Bloomington Ind.. Oct. s—When5 —When Indiana opens the 1932 Big Ten football campaign against Ohic State at Columbus Saturday Oct. 8 the H osiers will face a formidable assignment. Assistant Coach Paul Harrell, 1 who returned M >nday after seeing the Buckey-s open Lst Saturday with an impressive 34-7 win over Ohio Wesleyan, reports that Inddiana’s foe Saturday looked the best he hts seen them in seven years of playing them and s.ioutiPg them This bears out the statement is- ■ eued by Buckeye supporters and Coach Sam Willaman that this year's Bucks ar° th“ best in a decade. “Ohio Buckeyes aren't conceding a thing to anyone. They are-

n- t asking quarter from any team in the en-fermce this year." This is ’ Coach Wiilaman's statement. Rated as an outstanding dark horse but I not exactly a pennant contender as 1 'yet. O.nio State will be out to get J i a flying start at the expense of the ' ' Indiana team. On paper the Ohio outlook couldnot lo k m'lt better Ail the line men are hack excepting the pair of I guards. These have b-en replaced by capable » phomores. The line averages 197 pounds and will outweight Indiana five pounds to the man. The backfield will include Cramer. (Hinchman and Carroll. W'. en asked whom he would drill his men to watch for in the Buck-. eye backfield Coach Hayes exclaim-1 ed. “We will have to watch every- , on? of those men. We’ll have plenty , on our hands.’’ Neither Indiana coaches nor players were satisfied with the showing . f the Hoosiers against Ohio U. “Ohio U showed up glaring weaknesses in many places where we , idn’t expected to find them and I this we.k will have to be crammed 1 full of corrective drill if we are to I challenge the Buckeyes,” was Coach i Hayes' only statement relative to , the opening game It is known that every man on j the starting lineup against Ohio U. . is in danger of losing his position unless he bucks up and that com- , petiv? drill is expected to occupy ! the Huvsleis this Week, hi legaid I to the Ohio State g <me Coach I Hayes has said: “We will be underJ.gs but that won t hurt our outlook in the game a bit. We hope to make it a terrific battle.” o HOOVER OPENS HIS CAMPAIGN CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE him when he spoke last night in ) Des Ml ines. la. Two more stops! for rear platform speeches were scheduled—at Van Wert and Bucyrus, Ohio. He commented here on the Des ! Moines reception in the words; “In that very remarkable recep- ' tion. I see a rising determination to fight for sound jiHicies. This is the sort of real enthusiasm we need in the campaign.” En Route to Washington. D. C.. with President Hoover. Oct. 5. — (U.R) —President Hoover launched a ' fighting campaign tor re-election today, spurred by the enthusiasm i which met his opening defense of Ibis administration and attack on I his opponents. Heartened by the tumu'tuous re- | ception given in the corn belt capi-; tai of Des Moines to his fight ' •gainst the crucial economic situ- ■ ation and his outline of plans for the future, the President was returning to Washington with new optimism. The President’s address took up three broad subjects — the battle waged by the administration in de- ! feriHe of gold standard and against . debilitating influences of the world ! economic crisis, a slashing attack on policies of the Democratic party, and a plan for continued rehabilitation of the nation with special emphasis on agriculture The success of Mr. Hoover’s ap-1 pearanee the great throngs which : cheered the sight of the executive ' and absence of any untoward inci- ' dent went far toward restoring the ; somewhat shaken morale of Republican advisors. The President himself, was in; visibly better spirits His recep-' tion whetted an appotite tor more. A series of rear platform appearances were booked across Indiana. Ohio and Pennsylvania where originally a swift dash back to Washington had been planned. Hard-hitting emphasis and touches of humor marked Mr. Hoover's address at Dea Moines. The Democratic party, he said, must be judged by a record of “reckless disregard for the safety of the nation." All hope of recovery will end if the Democratic program of the bonus and "rubber dollars" prevails, the President charged. in the state where farmers disaffection is critical and a parade 'of protests preceded the President’s appearance, the executive ' outlined his program of aid for agriculture. He would apply war debt pay-

■ ments toward expansion of foreign I markets for agriculture. He would 'widen the protective tariff for farm products where necessary, provide jeasier farm credit to relieve pressure of mortgage foreclosures and jrepeal the price stabilization feattires of the farm marketing act. Several members of the presidential party predicted today Mr. iHoover might be persuaded to take [a more extended swing through the country later. For the first time Mr. Hoover revealed in his Dis Moines speech that at one crucial moment of the depression Andrew Mellon warned him i hat unless an immediate remedy were found the United States could hold onto the gold standard but two weeks longer.” With quiet drama. Mr. Hoover told the story of the fight to hold the United States to the gold standcid while momentary system of nation after nation crumbled under the strain.

"In the midst of this hurricane."! Mr. Hoover said, "the Republican' administration kept a cool head! and rejected every counsel of weakness and cowardice. Many of these; battles have had to be fought in; silence without the cheers of the limelight or the encouragement of i l public support because the very. disclosure of the forces opposed toj us would have undermined the; I courage of the weak and indu’ced i panic. Hideous misrepresentation and unjustified complaint hud to be accepted in silence. o Charlie Chaplin Has Been 111 Three Days Hollywood. Oct. 5 —(U.R) — Charlie Chaplin, the comedian, was revealed today to be suffering fr m : an illness, the symptoms of which 1 resembled ptomaine poisonine I Executives of his studio said his condition was improving, but that ,he had been ill three days. For , th en» st part, they said, his sick- . ness was brought on by a nervous ’ , disorder. Get the Habit — Trade at Home
