INJURY JINX HITS PURDUE a Three Purdue Regulars May Be Out Os Minnesota Game h , Chicago, Oct. 2i>—(U.R) —Ono of r the most disastrous Jinxes In mod- „ crn football stalked out of Pur- , due’s training camp a.gain today.

Fred Stalcup and John Drake. > the starting halfbacks. and Big r Bill Vergane. £iant sophomore , end. all came out of the Chicago game with injuries and at least > one of them definitely will not I face the Gophers at Minneapolis . Saturday. Vergane. star punter ■ and key receiver in the aerial . attack, may he out two weeks with a twisted knee. I Vnless Drake and Stalcup benefit by the long rest ordered by ■ Coach Noble Kizer, Purdue can expect to do little more than ■ attempt to hold down the score. These two are vital to the success of the wild-running backfield that rolled up 70 points in two Big 10 games and without them even Cecil Isbell may be heldless. Isbell, highest scoring back in the middlewest, iq Purdue's chief hope and Minnesota's main worrv. In three games, the elusive 185 pound junior fullback gained a total of 451 yards in 38 attempts, an average of 11.8 yards. This production resulted in six touchdowns and eight conversions. He is a hard, shifty runner with ndequate speed and excellent change of pace. As a sophomore, ho became one of the Big 10's outstanding ball carriers despite the fact he played most of the year with a. heavy shoulder brace. {Since the shower room tragedy at Purdue, backfield reserves aro slimmer than ever. Cody Isbell, > brother of Cecil, can handle one of the vacant assignments, but the other likely will be in doubt until Kizer hears the physicians final report on the injured players. George Spehn. 175 pound sophomore, will replace Vergane against the Gophers. “When we get up there well be fighting against tremendous odds.” Kizer said. “We can't hope to match Minnesota on straight power but if our line can break open a few holes and we get a fw breaks in the game, we might surprise.” This is the vein Kizer has adopted since Ca,rl Danlbeck and Tom McGannon died of burns. He makes no play with words to whip them into a frenzy before a game There have been no vows and the tragedy never is mentioned on the football field, although the fierceness of their play has indicated the Boilermakers feel the lose strongly. Minnesota ha.s not been defeated since the final game in 1932 when Harry Newman's placekick gave Michigan a 3 to 0 victory. Atlhough they were tied four times In 1933, the Golden Gophers, twice national champions, are undefeated in 27 consecutive games. 0 OFFICERS WAIT ('conttnt ft> from der would enter the city secretly, rather than by train, as announced. “We won't have to call for any help.” Yates said. “Just as soon as disorder begins I'll arrest everybody involved, a,nd it doesn't matter whether that includes Browder or not. My sworn duty is to preserve the peace.” Browder's arrest on Sept. 30 frustrated his plan to address a mass meeting. His attorney. David Belltail, Chicago, took his place at the WBOW microphone | and rea/l his prepared address. A group of citizens including members of the American Legion and of the Law and Order league, organize !. to preserve industrial ' peace after a general strike last year, stormed the station, but Benta.ll had locked the door of the studio from which he was broadcasting. To Straighten Record Indianapolis. Oct. 20 — (U.R) — Earl Browder, communist presidential candidate, paused en route ’ ! to Terre Haute today to announce j he war; “going back to straighten out the record.” A committee of Indianapolis I citizens who recently wrote Mayor Samuel Beecher of Terre Haute. protesting arrest of Browder there Sept. 30 met the communist leader at the train. They said they wanted to inform Browder they acted in protest against denial of free speech e.nd not because of sympathy with the communist party. Browder eaid he did not expect “trouble'' at Terre Haute. He said he would make a radio speech tonight but had not been told of any arrangements for a public appearance.

Negotiations to send the 32-year-old. 200pound baseball player to Hollywood began shortly before the world series which the Yankees won from the Giants. o Ligonier Students Are Fingerprinted Ligonier, Ind., Oct. 20. — (U.R) — Fingerprinting of the Ligonier school children was to be started today by the Indiana state police it was announced yesterday.

One man was missing and feared dead. Six wooden warehouses and a number of oil storage tanks were destroyed.

I I It Azana wanted to tour loyal- ! ist cities, as was announced, he ' could proceed from Barcelona ■ down the east coast to Valencia and other cities in perfect safety. - remaining in loyalist territory and ■; in position to lead the constituted | government. From this legalistic standpoint, so long as he remained in titular control, he might set up his capital where he pleased and declare Madrid, in nationalist hands, to be merely another city. Also, if Azana wanted to leave | the country, he could do so on any ( number of ships, liners, merchantmen, or warships. Particularly, the Argentine cruiser Veinticinco De Mayo is due at Alicante probably tomorrow from France and will remain in Spanish or adjacent French waters, while the Argentine destroyer Tucuman is due at Alicante November 2. It was announced at Buenos Aires recently — inadvertently, it appeared later —that several high Spanish officials, including Azana, had obtained permission to embark in the cruiser if necessary. For the present, Azana. as president of the country supposed to j be a non-political figure, the sym-1 ; bolos government, is safe in the territory of the loyalists with whom i he threw his lot at the opening of the civil war. Wild reports circulated from nationalist sources as to the meaning of Azana's departure from Madrid —aside from the assertion that it was an admission of the city's doom. • | Gen. Gonzalo Gueipo de Llano, the nationalist commander in the south, broadcast from Seville the report that Azana would name Barcelona the capital, temporary at least, of the republic. He as- ' serted also that Russian leaders I were at Barcelona to aid in organ-1 I izing a Catalonian socialist republic. There would be socialist repub- , lies, on the Russian federate principle, in other loyalist provinces, he said. Catalonia now has semlautonomous government, and semi-' autonomy was recently granted by the Madrid government to the bas- ( que provinces as a gesture to bas- ' que nationalists. o i Beet Truck Driver Hurt In Accident A truck loaded with beets, and [ i driven by a Mr. Wagner, ran into the ditch near the Adams-Allen county line on the Decatur-Mon- . roeville road last evening about o I o'clock. , It was reported that the truck left , the road and crashed into the bott tom of a ten-foot ditch along the . berm of the.road, and that the drivs er suffered a chest injury, with a - possible rib fracture. , o Hicksville Youth Dies Os Wounds ‘ Fort Wayne, Ind., Oct. 20.—(U.R) —Earl Fore, 15, son of Mr. and - Mrs. Roy Marlowe of Hicksville, , Ohio, died of a bullet wound early - this morning at the Methodist hos--5 pital here.

LANDON SPEAKS IN CALIFOHHI.II Republican N o mine e Speaks At Los Angeles Tonight Aboard Landon Campaign train In California. Oct. 20.—(VP)—Gov. Alf M. Landon moved into California today with a broader reciprocal trade view to offer in a bid for 'hat state’s 22 electorlal votes and a pledge to improve the civilian conservation corps. He hoped to bring California de-, finitely into the Republican column with his speech tonight (10 P- M. , CST) at Los Angele,; and then turn 1 Eastward again for last minute fights for states In the southwest, the middlewest and the east. The prelude to the Republican pres'dential candidate's expanded views on reciprocal trade agreements was made last night in a 25mifcute platform speech at Albuquerqti", N. M. He emphasized proper use of the reciprocal trade 4oc- ' trine and charged the new deal with its abuse. His broader view followed recent criticism by James P. Warburg of ( the Landon trade ixisition when . Warburg announced he would vote , for Mr. Roosevelt- Gov. . charged the new deal wi'h narrow . economic nationalism, closely paral- , leling Warburg's recent criticism of . Republican inability to recognize that economic nationalism lies at the root of "our” economic difficulties. Developements that stood out on Landon's journey across the southwest to the Pacific t oast included: 1. In a rear platform speech at Barstow, California, thw morning Gov. Landon recalled his constant support and action for improvement of the civilian conservation corps legislations, promised to “do everything within my power not only to continue the CCC but to improve it.” He charged the Roosevelt administration was threatening to lead several hundred thousand youtlw tn the camps “down a blind alley (because) the politicians have taken over the administrative jobs.” 2- Expanded and re-emphasized his views on reciprocal trade agreements, particularly his support of the fundamental doctrine of reciprocity when it “properly applies” to aid and protect the interests of farmers, workers and "efficient” inM U Su N s JpV a N F w / • E / .
