“At ’em Tigers” wlii ne a favorite expression in Greencastle November 7, when the Wabash football squad is scheduled to play DcPauw University in its annual game. The game will ! be played on McKeen Field here. This game is the pride of both schools. The watchword both for DcPauw and Wabash is to “lick” the other. Possibly there is no more" intense rivalry between Harvard and Yale universities than that which exJ | ists between the Methodist and Presbyterian colleges. The gate receipts at the Wabash-DePauw games have always f»r exceeded any other game. I DePauw won from Wabash last year. What do you say about this year?
