VARIOUS TEAMS ARE DISCUSSED United Press Writer Gives Personal Opinions On Present Season Chicago, Nov. 2 — (U.R) — A few personal opinions, observations and notes on the football season: Gil Berry. Illinois captain, isi one of the greatest all-round backs in the Big Ten and would; be All-American timber on a win ning team . . . He might have' been another Red Grange if it' hadn’t Deen his misfortune to matriculate just when Illinois football material suffered a sharp, decline . . . He’s married and the I best looking player in the confer-j ence . . . The movies could use] him nicely in a football hero role.

Coach Bernie Bierman of Minnesota is I said to have first seen the possibilities of such a defense against j the Notre Dame system while coaching at Tulane ... He used it with such success against! Georgia and other southern teams coached by- Rockne's pupils that j Tulane did not lose a game in four years against the N.

But, notably at Providence, R. 1., where approximately 40.000 citizens gathered in the light rain ltnin» the idewalks and jamming themselves into doorways and beneath awnings, he was able to extend his “best wishes" to the crowds through a microphone thrust into his hands. A driving rain struck the candidate's party when it reached Worcester, Mass., but several thousand persons, who ha< waited two hours beneath umbrellas to see him, defied the elements to receive his greeting. The skies cleared after the party reached Brookfield, near Springfie d. for the first halt for food — sandwiches and coffee that had been ordered in advance. Then the governor swung southward toward Hartford. Conn., stopping a L brief moment to wave to 2,000 at Springfield; Mayor William J. Rankin of {Hartford met the governor at the I city limits, and escorted the party through the streets, which were (lined with citizens to whom the candidate waved, leaving the city without a set speech. Tomorrow, the governor will make three speeches, two in New ‘lark and Jersey City, and the third jin the Metropolitan Opera House, (New York. He will conclude his j campaign with an address at Madison Square Garden Saturday. HOOVER STILL • IS UNDECIDED i CONTINUED FROM PAGE? ONE Minnesota remained indefinite. The plans after his speech Saturday likewise remained "under discussion,” WLlter Newton, White H u:>? secretary said. “He may go on out to California —and he may not," Newton said. “There simply is no decision yet. He could leave Minnesota as late as Saturday night and get Into |Pa’o Allo In time to vote next Tuesday. He could make a speech on the eve of the election Monday night on the way to the Pacific coast, winding up the campaign with the traditional appeal to the . people of all parties to vote.” | Newton nad no idea when the {decision would be made, he said, jand other White House officials likewise were equally unable to settle this matter. All insisted that they simply had no word from Mr. Hoover. Meanwhile, the President devoted most of his time to writing his speeches for the week-end midI western drive. He spent most of

Mrs. Hoover, as usual, will accompany him. Newton will go as ■ fas as Minnesota, his home state, where he expects to make "a , speech or two." remaining there * even if Mr Hoover goes on west.

TOWNSEND TUESDAY NIGHT CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE Mr. Townsend, "These two greateconomic groups are not content with picking up the crumbs from the ‘special interests’ table The way to make the nation prosperous is to restore the purchasing power of ,he farmers and the! workers.’’ Mr Townsend cited numerous ! . failures of the present adminis-’ I tration to carry out its promises I made to the farmer in the camI paign of 1928. He declared that "agriculture’s patience is wellnigh exhausted. She has been long suffering and king, but she cannot longer tolerate delay and • inaction because her own situation is intolerable.” The pledges in the Democratic I state and national platforms in ’ regarti to agriculture and labor were emphasized by the candidate' and he indicated the importance of the views of Franklin D. Roosevelt on those subjects declaring that the latter’s "forgotten man" represents 97% of the people in the United States The speaker asserted that if the present condition is not reIkrved, if agriculture is not given <

I! some assurance of equality with F other industries, if the farmer ‘ cannot make the cost of producU tion: this "condition will destroy ■I our form of government.” In speaking of what he consid- • ] res the paramount issue of the i! campaign, taxation amt economy . I in government. Mr. Townsend said i in part; “When our forefathers ■ i wrote our present laws using pro- . i perty and not income as a basis >, for taxation, they found that 98% ' of all income in Indiana came from i property. That was a just law ; then. However, we find now that but 25% of our income is derived ; from pioperty; 75% from salaries. bond clippings, interest earn- ■ ings and fees. j "We find under our present [ system that this 25% of the ini come from property pays 93% of ! the taxes and the 75% that comes j from in<‘agib|e sources pays hut | 7% of the taxes.” Affirming his belief in the party s state platform pledges to labor, Mr. Towtwend advocated liberalization of the workmen’s compensation laws and the forbidance of the use of the so-called “yellow dog” contract, TEN GANGSTERS PLACED IN JAIL 1 CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE I ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ • • * i gangsters. One of the raids was at an ex- 1 pensive appointed "directors room" i high in an office building at No. LaSalle street. The other was ■at an obscure westside “political” headquarters. Once police had herded their col : lection of gang luminaries to head- i I quarters they were somewhat at a loss as to what to do with them. ‘ There were no immediate charges; 'placed against the men but Chiefi of Detectives William Schoemaker had high hopes he would be able; to find witnesses against the gangsters before attorneys obtained i I their release by habeas corpus ac-l tion. Never before —even at trie height; of police drives against the gangs I
til —had so many important gangr sters been jailed at one time. ; Temporarily the extensive Capone v syndicate operations were being handled by underlings with the aid -of the few chiefs who escaped the e accidental roundup. v Police believed the LaSalle street 1 raid had ivtcoveted the racket s I headquarters of Cook county. From '•I his suite which overlooks the city's ■i'financial district, they believe the .extensive rackets that take so 1! heavy a toll of business of business ' have been directed. The suite is tjn the same bui’ding as the offices 1 of th« Association of Commerce, operators of the famed "secret six." -| Detectives William Durury and I John Howe, operating under direct t, supervision of a special Cook coun--|ty grand jury, made the LaSalle t street raid. They hoped to hold ijoff habeas corpus action long :ienough to attempt identification of | the captives by racket victims , DOUBT STORY OF ROBBER SUSPECT (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) miles with the bandits as hostlags. He claimed he went alone I with the gang to obtain knowl- : edge of its activities, intending to impart the information to authoriI ties. The only two robberies he named specifically were at San | Pierre, Ind., and Bradley. 111. A deaf mute was killed in the San Pierre robbery in which Sberna said Valone and Rino participated. Authorities doubted his story i not only because'he failed to supply details, but because it appeared that he could have gained the confidence of the gang so ■ completely without suspicion bej ing east on his purpose. It also was pointed out that there was no necessity of his actively aiding ,in the Ransom holdup. In addition if his purpose had been in- : nocent, as he claimed, he had had | ample opportunity to forewarn i authorities.
INDIANA PARTY LEADERS SPEED UP CAMPAIGNS CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE depression," he said. "Each of these three steps was heroic and I shudder to think what would happen of the voters were to change administrations." McNutt, speaking at Madison, said the dominant issue of the state campaign is tax relief. "Relief is imperative," he told his audience. “It cannot come from temporary expedients oi i from easy going pretense that conI ditions are better than they ac- ‘ tually are. It must come from courageous application of two sound principles — tax economy and an equitable distribution of the tax load." One of the largest political rallies in Union City heard Frederick Landis, Logansport editor, declare last night that there was no prospect of prosperity under a Democratic administration because of the party's protective tariff i belief.
