This will be the 'varsity's first test in the state championship series, and with the game with Indiana in the following week will decide the championship of Indiana. Notre Dame is lucky in playing both these games on the home grounds. Judging from a comparison of scores Notre Dame should win both games. The men have been put through a steady hard drill this week, the time of practice increasing each day and the number of scrubs pitted against the regulars also increasing, and the result is that the men are in excellent physical condition. Trainer Butler has rounded the cripples up in good shape by putting them on the bicycle track for half an hour each day. The following eighteen men stand chances of getting into the Purdue game (the eleven men who will form the first line-up have not yet been selected): Center Pick, ISO. Guards Gillen, Winters, 220; O'Mallcy, 103; Peel. 1S5. Tackles Faragher. l'JO; Fortin (captain). 17; Culiinan, 170. Ends Lonergun, 170; Shaughne.sy, 170; Myers, 1C3. Quarter back McGlew, 133. Half backs Doran, 170; Lins, ISO; Wood, 1; Coleman, 100. Full backs Salmon, 163; Kirby, 170. USUAL BLUE FORECAST. I. U., ns Is Generally the Case, Pessimistic Regarding Its Own Ability. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. BLOOMINGTON, Ind., Nov. 7. The men have all recovered from the Illinois game and practice has begun in earnest for the state championship game with Notre Dame on Nov. 1G. There Is much interest in the outcome of the Notre Dame-Purdue game on Saturday. The I. U. team has made little or no progress since the Purdue game, and if Notre Dame is strong enough to win from Purdue they should have an excellent chance of winning the state championship this year. The team is now in the midst of the worst slump that an Indiana team has experienced for years. The practice is listless and there is a decided lack of team work and spirit. The game for Saturday is with Center College, probably the strongest team in Kentucky, and as practically nothing is known hero about the team there is con- ! siderable apprehension in regard to the I outcome of the game. The game with Illii nois showed that the team is decidedly weak In olensive play, while the defense is fairly strong. Coach Home has on his hands the task of building up an entirely new offense before the game with Notre Dame, and this with the spirit the men showed after the defeat of last Saturday Is a decidedly difficult task. Reports of the South Rend Game. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. LAFAYETTE, Ind., Nov. 7.

The Illinois agere- ! gatlon will arrive at 7 o'clock Saturday i morning over the Wabash, and the game will be called at 3:30 o'clock. The Purdue boys are practicing hard for the contest and hope to win. It will be the first game of the kind ever played here. In Miles, Osborne, Taylor and Reeder the Purdue boys have a clever set of backs. For practice the sophomores lined up against the 'varsity last night and held them for downs twice. Game with I. S. N. Is Canceled. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. TERRE HAUTE, Ind., Nov. 7. The De Pauw team has canceled the game with the Indiana State Normal School for next Saturdaj.
