LOCAL ELEVENS FARE BADLY ON GRIDIRON
ENGINEERS TRAIL IN LISTLESS FRACAS, 7-0
Fumbles Keep Huebel's Band From At Least Tying With Franklin Baptists.
By Fred Hlld.
In spite of the fact that Rose intended to come back strong yesterday and begin a winning streak, the Engineers were unable to come out of the rut that they have fallen into during the past week and fluked out in a bad fashion, losing, 7 to 0.
The Franklin eleven, with a number of its first string men out of the game on account of injuries received at Wabash last week, failed to do much better and the result was a slow, tiresome game that brought relief with the final whistle.
The visitors made their lone touchdown soon after the beginning of the first quarter, but after this both teams booted, fumbled and foozled through three quarters of "gummed up" play to no results. Both quarterbacks seemed to lose their heads and used every play but the right one.
Rose had several good chances to even up the count, but at each critical moment lost the ball by fumbling or threw it away.
Yatsko played the best game for the Engineers and Hays and Clyver showed best for the visitors, although, frankly, there was no star- playing exhibited.
The game in detail: Franklin won the toss and chose to receive at the south goal. Sheldon kicked to Craig and Franklin after being stopped, finally kicked the ball over the Rose goal line. Trimble kicked to Vandivere and Franklin gained 15 yards on a forward pass, after which Vandivere went through the line for the marker. Hays kicked goal.
Things looked a little better when Buck intercepted a pass and traveled 20 yards. A doubly p.tss netted 15 more, but Mize recovered a Rose fumble at this time-and spoiled things.
A little excitement was generated near the last of the second quarter when the Engineers again approached their rival's goal.
Riggs received a pass from Goldsmith and placed the ball on the one yard line. Smith recovered a fumble and Franklin punted. Buck ran the ball back almost to the line again, but Smith intercepted a forward pass, but fumbled and Rose recovered. The half ended just as Rose Attempted another forward nass and lost the ball.
The second half was without any enlivening features. Franklin used a spread play often, but with little success and Rose tried forward pass after forward pass with even worse luck.

Notes of the Game
Coach John Thurber, of Franklin, was well pleased by outcome of game. Thurber expected a stronger defense from the men of Rose.
Captain "Jap"' Davis, of Rose, showed the effects of his physical condition, but played a hard game.
Buck tried, but could not quite get going after the first half.
Capt Nelp, of Franklin, who was picked for the all-state job at quarter last year, took in the game from the sidelines. Halfback Hays acted as captain during his absence.
Yatsko played Rose.
Bobbie Robinson, of Indiana fame, present prosecutor of Clay county, did a good job of refereeing. N. G. Wann and Dr. McCarty assisted.
Fred Frisz, alumni manager, was well pleased with the crowd, but would not state his opinion of the game.
*"Sammy Finkelstein, yell leader, was the big noise.

LSNTON SURPRISES NORTH END MACHINE
Down State Aggregation Hands Clogston's Band Short End of 32-18 County
By "Hank" Wc»t.
LINTON, Ind., Oct. 31.—In one of the best games played on the local gridIron in years the Garfield high school football team of Terre Haute lost its first game of the season, here, this afternoon to the Linton high school eleven by a score of 32 to 18. The contest was hard fought from the first, the Terre Haute team holding the locals to a 6-6 tise until after the third quarter. One of the largest crowds ever turned out oo a local game witnessed the fracas and the sidelines were kept fairly ringing with cheers throughout by the Linton rooters and the supporters of the purple and the white.
The first half gave a fine exhibition of football, as the two teams fought desperately to gain the lead, the locals having registered a touchdown after the first ten minutes of play and the Garfield lads coming back, tieing the score, which i-tood 6-6 until the second quarter, when both aggregations gained one more marker, but the locals scored more than the losers, making the count 19 to 12 at the end of the period. In the final period the Linton team chalked up two more markers, while the Vigo county boys succeeded in capturing only one.
The weight ol the Greene county athletes had considerable to do with their winning, as time after time during the last half they would hurl themselves aganst their opponents' vanguard for long gains. The Garfield men were outweighed by at least ten pounds to the man. Another important factor in the victory of the locals was their splendid interference on the end runs.' Only straight football tactics were used by the locals after falling at the only forword iass they attempted. Many of their gains were made on shift plays by which they had two men to the losers' one.
On the other hand trie up-staters gained almost entirely on open plays, especially on the forward pass. Two of their markers coming when Conover, the speedy purple and white halfback received passes and raced over half the distance of the field to encircle his opponent's goal posts. Being outweighed both in the backfield and in the line the Terre Hauteans were unable to penetrate the local's line for more than ten years at a time. Several times good gains were made by skirting the ends, while many of the gains came when the Garfteldites were forced to punt and the faithful toe of "Bill" Tingley carried the oval from forty to fifty yards at a clip.
The last half was roughest and several of the men on each side received injuries which took them from the game. Nitterhouse, the gritty Garfield tackle, was taken from the game in the third quarter with a wrenched arm, while Conover and Perkins had to retire from the contest. "Jim" Conover, of Garfield, was the star, running over half the distance of the field three times for his comrades' eighteen points. After a punt in the first period, this luminarv snatched the oval from a bunch of gladiators and evaded several tacklers for the second score of the game. In the second and fourth sessions Conover nabbed two perfect forward passes, from Tingley, and again eluded all tacklers to cross the Linton goal line.
The other players who did well were Adams, Walker and Humphries of the blue and red, while Tingley and Welch distinguished themselves for the losers. Captain Hidklin and Davis also put up a good game for the purple and white.

GIANTS AFTER )00!N
NEW TOR'-i, Oct. 31.—The chances are that Charley Dooin, recently deposed as manager of the Phillies, will be on the catching staff of the Giants next season. On what may be considered absolutely reliable authority it is said that McGraw has offered Dooln a two years' contract at a figure as high as that he received for managing the Philadelphia club, and has assured him that arrangements can be made with the club owners for his transfer.
It is not known whether the plan contemplates the trading of players to the Phillies or the outright purchase forapash, but there can be no doubt but -that the negotiations ane on. McGraw is in Laurel, Md., and the representatives of the New York club in the offices here could neither confirm nor deny the report, not having heard from the Giant leader.
Dooin admitted to a close personal friend two days ago that he had the offer under advisement and expressed the belief that the deal would go through. The Giants are badly in need of now catchers on account of the gradual slowing up of McLean and Meyers. The new man, Harry Smith, may or may not turn out to be a star.
BOYS' CLUB FIVE IN FIELD.
Grosser, Last Year's Center, Elected Captain for Season. Ten candidates respond to Coach Miller's call for basketball material at the Boys' club gym last night. The old men out were Inman, Moon, Craig, Fields, Marshall and Grosser. The new trvouts were Harris, Rosenfcld, Manhart and Gay. After practice an election for captain was held, in which Grosser, last year's center, was elected. With this squad in condition prospects for a fast teain are bright thisf year. -i*

FfNNERAN CHALLENGES «POOL CHAMPION
Seeks Title,Match Wit'n Otto Jensen and ^Will (Jive "King Bee" Side Bet.
Walter Flnneran, crack local green cloth expert, has ohallenged City Champion Otto Jensen for a match for the city straight pool championship. Flnneran stands ready to back his challenge with his bank roll and will agree to reasonable demands on the part of the title holder. "Any way to get Jensen Into a match," Is the way in which- Flnneran expressed himself last night when making known hts defl. "I know I can beat him," went on Finneran, "and if he is a real champion he'll play me. I'll give him a side bet of $50 or will play merely for the championship. It's up to him. "I am ready to play a match of 500 balls, divided into any number of blocks. Personally I prefer to play two blocks of 250 balls each, one at his place, the Central Smoke house, and the other at the Tribune parlor, where I usually play. But I'll pJay him under any reasonable conditions, so R-nxious am I to get him hooked up for a title match. "One thing sure, there^ll be a new champion any time Jensen plays yours truly."
Finneran realizes that Jensen, as champion, has the right to dictate the terms of the match, but he does not expect Jensen to show other than true sportsmanship and put down conditions which could not possibly be met. Finneran will play the entire match at the Central if necessary but as he is accustomed to the tables at the Tribune parlor he believes that at least one block should be played there.
Jensen, it is thought, will accept the challenge and his conditions are awaited by hundreds of local cue devotees who look forward to a title match between two such 61ever experts as the champion and the challenger.

CHICAGO. ftt. 31.—Wisconsin shattered the dope in the western football arena this arternoon by holding Chicago to a scoreless' tie in one of the greatest struggles ever staged on Camp Randall, the Badger battlefield at Madison, Wis.

CAMBRIDGE,-Mass., Oct. 81.—Harvard was lucky to beat Michigan on Sow diers' field this afternoon by the soort of 7 to 0.

Starting with the ball on HamrM 40-yard line after an exchange of punor which followed unsuccessful attamptjl! on the part of both teams to gain bjf' straight football, Michigan began & march toward the Crimson goal^V in the .first quarter. With Maulbe tearing great gaps in the Harvard fonse, Yost's charges worked the down tc the Crimson 30-yard line. a double pass, Hughltt to Maultbet the westerners gained 12 yards. Oi two

Maulbetch was far away the briglrfc»l est star of the game. Time after tim« ho tore into Harvard's line on successive plays for gains that would make it third down for Michigan with perhaps one or -two yards to go. Instead of giving the big halfback a rest Hughitt would call on him again and ft would be Harvard's ball on downs.
In the handling of punts Hughltt' mlsiudged almost every one of the long high spirals which Franke or Hardwick booted Into Michigan territory^ Lcgan, on the other hand, handled Splawn's twisters in great style and it was seldom that he failed to run back from 5 to 15 yards. On almost every occasion Hughitt would let the bafil drop, trusting to luck that it would bound back toward he Crimson goa£ and then fall on with three or 'fon* Crimson players directlv over him.
