JESDAV, OCTOBER 13, 1914.

With Several Stars Out Because of Injuiies Rose Aggregation Faces Disastrous Campaign.

By Hllil.

With Coach Huebel out of the city and Captain Carter on the list of disabled. Jap Davis took charge of the Kose l'oly football squaa last night ^ind drove the men through a hard practice. Uavis flrfct sent the men around the track for a few laps to limber up and then divided the team into two souads. The linemen were detailed for the charging machine and the backs and ends were given practice in handling punts and forward passes. After about thirty minutes of this work the two teams were lined up and given a signal drill.

The team was without a quarterback last night, owing to the illness of Buck and the absence ot Baxter. Sheldon was placed at this position and ran the team nicely, in spite of the fact that he has had little experience as a quarterback.

The squad presented a rather depleted appearance last night, as there were others who did not report besides Carter. Baxter and Buck. Pirtle was unable to appear because of his bad knee and the whole team is rather the worse for wear after big league experience.

Huclicl to Get on Job.

Huebel will be back tomo.row and will do his best to get the team Into shape before the last of the week. A special .car has been chartered and a larjre number of Poly rooters will accompanv the team.

Manager Stiltz has jutt installed a new football bulletin board in the icwer hall of the main building and intends to post bulletins every day about the condition of the team and the men. This should be another factor In keeping the student body in touch with the news workings of the team and will, no doubt, keep the interest aroused In these who are unable to attend the practice. «.

Alumni Manager Frisa hopes to hear from Greencaslle within the next f— •lays regarding the Rose-Del auw game. Owing to a misunaerstanding on the part ot the managers as to where this game is to be played no contracts have vet been signed and the whole affair has been hanging fire.

The DeVauw management asserts that the game must be played at Greenc?stle on account of the season tickets which have been sold, but trie local management has been counting heavilv on having the game on the local Peld. Frisz- savs. however, that if DePauw will gtve him a sufiiciently lai-ye guarantee lie will make the trip.

FEDS MB TWO STARS

ST. LOUIS, Mo.. Oct. 13.—W. D. Perntt, pitcher, and Ivy Wingo. catcher, of the tot. Louis Nationals, have quit organized baseball, according to an afternoon paper todav. and have signed or will sign with the Federal league.

Wingo left here last night for Cincinnati. Before leaving he refused twice to talk terms for next year with Manager Huggins.

Perritt also lad evaded a meeting with Huggins. It ismnderstood-he has Bignea with tne PittsDurgn Federals.

Other players in the local National league who have not signed for next year are Albert J. Dolan. left fielder Dan Griner, pitcher Richard NieJiaus, pitcher, and Patrick O'Connor, catcher.

Another afternoon paper says Perritt has signed for three years with the Pittsburgh Federals: that he received $3,500 in advance that Wingo lias signed with the Buffalo Feds for $6,000 a year and that he received $3,000 in advance. This paper quotes Perritt as follows: "I drew $3,000 from Cardinals this season. The Pittsburgh Federals have offered me more than that is bonus itionev. I signed on September 20."

Wingo is quoted as saying: "I signed with the F.ederals in Pittsburgh on Sept^nber 29."

CINCINNATI O., Oct. 13— Ivy Wingo, catcher, and W. D. Perritt, pitcher of the St. Louis Nationals, have signed up with the Federals and jumped their contracts with the i?t. Louis National league team, according to Herb Perdue, veteran pitcher, who was traded to St. Louis by Boston this season. Perdue •was in Cincinnati with Wingo today. Both were on their way to their homes, Ferdue to Galatin, Tenn., and Wingo to Norcross, Ga. "Wingo and Perritt signed up with the Federals some months ago, but did not announce the fact until last night when we left St. Louis," said Perdue. "I could have done the same, as they approached me while I was still with Boston, but I couldn't see their offer, and do not do business that way."

Sox Cnptain to Wed.

CHICAGO. Oct 13.—George David Weaver, better known as "Buck," shortstop and captain of the Chicago White Sox, today obtained a license to marry Miss Helen Cook, of this city. He gave his age as 23 years and his residence as Chicago. "I never felt happier in my life. This means four hits for me in the game with the Cubs this aflernoon," said W«aver as he received the license.

IN 12-7

GREEN CASTLE, Ind.. Oct. 13.—Playing listlessly during the entire first half but bracing during the last two quarters, DePauw finished ahead In a 12 to 7 game with Franklin here Monday afternoon. A sensational thirtyyard run by Havs in the last few seconds of play prevented the Baptists from being blanked, this being the only time that they threatened the Methodist goal.

Neither the line plunging tactics of the old gold nor the open formations of the visitors gained consistently, and the ball see-sawed up and down the field, although it seldom was in DePa uw territory.

Visions of repetition of tne 0 to 0 tie of last year caused the Methodists to

to their laurels in the last half. In less tfi«n three minutes, Anderson' had been shoved across after a series of line plunges and end runs in which he, Captain Thomas, and Ade were prominent. Nothing more happened until the first of the fourth, when Thomas repeated the performance. Both trials at goal were unsuccessful.

The game was marred by numerous penalties, substitutions and injuries. The forward pass was used seven times by PePauw and four were incomplete. Franklin did not depend cr. this play, using spread and tandem formations on practically every down. Nelp was the individual star.

Harvard Star Joins Captain in Hospital

CAMBRIDGE, Mass.. Oct. 13.—Laughing Charley Bricklcy. Harvard's fighting football captain, now rallying from an operation for appendicitis, received a caller Monday in Stan Pennock, his room mate. But the all-America star's visit was not of a social order.

Pennock was taken to the hospital suffering from water on the knee, and is out for two weeks. Brickley laughingly challenged his mate in misery to a checker tournament later in the week.

Morgan, varsity left tackle, and Sweetser. his substitute, are also at the infirmary for three weeks' layoff. With Mahan unable to play until the Michigan fracas and varsity Quarterback Logan Tack Harwick both considerably mussed up, Harvard's chances for another Intercollegiate championship are far from promising unless Trainer Pooch Donavan can speedily bring his injured charges back in shape for the Michigan, Princeton and Yale games, the crimson's chief opponents this season.

FOR BADGER FRACAS

Boilermakers Prepare for Bitter Struggle With Wisconsin Saturday— Dope on Other Elevens.

LAFAYETTE. Ind., Oct. 13.—Coach Smith put his men through a long, hard practice Monday afternoon, despite the threatening weather and slippery field. Time Is now snort until Purdue fans will know whether they are to get in on the honors of the western conference or again drop down the ladder and wait and hope for another year. The team will have to leave before the last of the week in order to be in Madison for the game with Wisconsin Saturday, leaving the coaches only two or three davs to perfect the new formations and instill into the men the fighting spirit which will be necessary to carry them througn the game with the Badgers.

The two hardest games of the season come within the period of one week, Wisconsin Saturday and Chicago one week later. It is hoped by all Interested that another year will see the schedule arranged in better shape.

The early part of Monday afternoon was spent with the linemen working on the bucking- machine, and the backs and ends going down under kicks and forward passes. The scrubs later were lined up against the varsity, and the regulars gained ground easily with the new formations. The speedy Pultz startled the rooters by running through the entire scrub team on the kickoff for a touchdown. VanAiken also made some good runs, throwing off tackier after tackier, while Captain O Brien and Dew gained on line plunges. Only once did the scrubs score, when Walters. quarterback, took the ball on the •varrltvs twenty-yard line, eluded the first team men by clever dodging and crossed the goal line for a marker.

MADISON. Wis.. Oct. 18.—Undaunted by a driving rainstorm, Coach Juneau men plunged into the first session of a hard weeks grind at Camp Randall Monday. The coach is planning one of the stiffest weeks of the season in preparation for the Purdue game, which in certain to be the deciding point of the season for Wisconsin. The men went to work with added "pepper Monday afternoon, cheered up bv the showing made in tho Marquette game Saturday.

Scrimmage is slated for every afternoon this week except Friday, when the team will be given a light workout in final preparation for the contest with the Boilermakers. None of the men were inlured in the Marquette game.

INDIANA.

BLOOMINGTON. Ind.. Oct. 13.—That the Indiana squad suffered badly from injuries in the game with Illinois at Champaign Saturday was -plainly seen Monday when thirteen of the mainstays were unable to even don suits. Two or three of them may not be out the rest of the week, but the greater part of the cripples are expected to be ready for work by Wednesday. The ist of injuries bs given out by Trainer Ferguson is as follows:

Prather. two fingers dislocated on right hand Hare, bruised right leg Glackman. right ankle severely injured: A. Erehart,, back and. right hand huft: McCoy. right knee badly wrenched Winters, bad right knee Wetland, injury to head Whitaker, right leg injured Williams, bruised right hip: Krause, left knee hurt Worsey, fractured little finger Allen, cut through lip Peckinpaugh, sprained right ankle.

The Northwestern game here Saturday promises to be one of the most interestlris of the schedule not only becnuse ttfJ^two teams are about evenly r-alched, but from the fact that the Evanstonites are also using the eastern style of shift plays. The purple crew is coached this year by Murphy and McDevitt, two former Yale stars. The latter played on the same football team with Coach Childs. Coach Berndt was Indiana's scout at the NorthwesternChicago game last Saturday.

Berndt said since the Indianapolis alumni did not run an excursion to the Illini game, they will be expected to come in force to Bloomington Saturday for the annual alumni reunion, ^he Miami game is the only other one to be played on the home field this year and, although it promises to be as good as any on the schedule, it will not be of as much interest to the alumni as a conference contest.
