Tboro w«r» Mvcrai aurpriwo on tho grtdlroo Sotardsjr, both In tb* anst and WMC In Indiana tho strong showing mado by DoPauw against Earlham was a matter of comment. and If tho Oroeacastle mom can win their norxt game with Wabaah the fight for second place boson among tbo Indiana colleges will bo between DePauw and Franklin. Tbeeo two teams will meet at Qreencaatle nest Saturday aad it will be a battlo for blood. Earlham may regain some of her lost prestige before tho close of the season, but it is doubtful If the team wtu again bo as strong ea ten days ago. Rose Polytechnic's overwhelming defeat by Purdue removes that team from the race, while the Inability of Wabash to beat the Indianapolis Manual Training High School team by more than one point shows that the Presbyterians are not earning to the front as rapidly as was aspected. Butler Is badly outclassed by the other college elevens The defeat of Illinois by Michigan was anticipated. The men from Champaign found great difficulty In holding the superior Michigan line and were lucky to straps with only two touch-downs Both MtnnSanta and Wisconsin had easy gamtt aad Northwestern added fresh la arsis to her already good record by
defeating Beloit.
Chicago made a sorry showing against < Pennsylvania, and as coach Stage said after the contest. It was a veritable Water loo. The Maroons expected defeat but they did not ‘ think they would be buried under an avalanche of touchdowns and not once come within striking dtetaano of tho Quakers’ goal line. , The ether throe members of tho "big four** la the East—Tale. Harvard and Prtnoeton—were all scored against sad were forced to win out by low scores. Columbia put up a desperate light against Tain. Brown made It highly Interesting for Princeton, while the Indians compelled Harvard to play her strongest game of the season. Cornell made an excellewt showing against Dartmouth and the coaches were well aatlsfied with the
work Of tho Ithaca men.
In Indianapolis the game between the Indianapolis High School team and the Howw Military Academy eleven was a clean, close and exciting contest. In which there were several brilliant bits of foot-
ball.
BIO FOUR’S OAMXS.
Training School team, played a brilliant game at tackle, breaking up Interference, stopping holes in .the line end making openings when needed. Capt. Hota also played a strong game for nls team. KVrrlsh and Poston were the heavy ground gainers for Wabash, end had It not been for Coral's clever tackling would have run up a larger score.
How DePauw Defeated Xarlham. The game between DoPauw and Earlham was ons of the hardest fought football contests ever Been in Qreeneastle. DePauw winning by a score of t to 0. Notwithstanding the heAt, both elevens played a fast game. The only touchdown was made by Peterson, the left half-back of the DePauw team, who carried the ball over the Earlham goal line twelve minutes after play began In the first half. Previous to that, DePauw had carried the bail halt tho length of the field by short, fierce rushes, persistent line bucking and tbs use of the time-worn criss-cross, which was successfully worked for a big gain. The lost half waa largely a kicking contest. in which DePauw had a little the beet of It. Earlham struggled gamely to the end. but could not got the ball over the line, although the Quakers several times came dangerously near scoring. Captain Gregory. Whitelock and Peterson did the best work for DePauw, while Graves, Unthank and Shoemaker played an aggressive game for Earlham.

Saturday afternoon. 11 to A it was the first time the followers of the Mu* and whit* have had aa opportunity to see their favorite* In e regular game, and they were well pleased not only with the victory, but with the manner In which the High School boys handled themselves after the first fsw minutes of play. There wo* an unnecessary amount of fumbling by both teams early in the con- ; test. The Indianapolis team was particularly strong at center and ends and when properly protected the men behind the line did all that was asked of them. The feature of the game was the playing of Ward Dean and his brother. Douglas Dean, the High School ends; Mesters. left tackle, and Clark, right half-back. The work of these four men stood out prominently, and overshadowed that of the others. Ward Dean's offensive plsy was as clever football as has been seen here in many a day. He scored the first touchdown after sixteen minutes of ptey In the first half by a fifteen-yard daan round the left end. In the last half, after the HoWe team had tied ths score and carried the ball sixty yards toward a second touchdown, only to lose It. he ran the ball back fifteen yards, and on a sec-

The ball was just over the center of the field In High School territory. Dean called for another end and run. His Interference formed quickly; the Howe right end was brushed to one side and Dean, carefully guarded by five men, dashed across the field, checking off the white chalk lines with Increasing rapidly. while the whole Howe eleven trailed In pursuit. Dean, however, was safe behind hts Interference and was not stopped until he had planted the ball over the goal line and added another five points to the High School score. Masters and Clark proved effective In bucking the line and Douglas Dean made several short runs around Howe's right

The visitors had the heavier line and used their mass plays on tackle and giard. Their only touchdown came early In the second half and was the result of constant hammering at the High School line.

Two Local Game*. The Pan-Handle football eleven defeated the Fountain Square team on the athletic grounds south of the Pennsylvania shops Saturday afternoon by a score of 8 to 6. The game was fiercely contested, but the superior weight of the Pan-Handle team told In the end. The Fountain Square eleven showed the better teem work, while the Pan-Handle players did the better Individual work. With proper coaching It will soon be one of the best athletic teams In central Indiana. The Pan-Handle eleven goes to Logansport next Saturday for a game with the Pan-Handle team of that city.

horse owners, trainers and jockeys are becoming more vague. The London Times says there Is all the difference in the world between reckless riding caused by s desire to win, which Is Lord DuWiam s latest charge, and killing horse to prevent their winning, as was first suggested In'his speech before the jockey club. The Times says that reckless and dangerous riding should be suppressed, but
that It is not a criminal offense. Austrian jockeys have protested the
riding of American jockeys, because of
their recent successes on the Austrian tracks, and the jockey club now threatens to bar them from riding on Austrian tracks on the ground that they had previously been barred from riding In the United States.

Tho Man with the Typewriter. [The Student, Indiana University.) Many at the game Thursday wondered what a man on the north side of the football field with the typewriter was doing. He was Mr. Hal Reed, sporting editor of The Indianapolis News, who came down to prepare a special account of the game for his paper. This Is the first time that an exhibition of football at Indiana University has been deemed of sufficient consequence by an Ir.dlmapolls newspaper to deserve a staff cqpleepondent's attendance. Mr. Reed preteffed a running account of the game, which was sent to his paper at the end of the first half and at the close of the game. At 6 o'clock Thursday a spdflal football edition of The Indianapolis News was sold In the streets of the capital city, giving full details of Indiana's victory over Notre Dame. WITH THE BOWLERS.

Eleven have averages In excess of the high average last year. While this la but a start, and many who are now at the top will suffer from poor scores later In the season, the Indications are that the average this season will continue measurably higher than last.

he had another fistic battle on hts hands. The principal thing McGovern demands of his manager Is that he give him plenty of opportunities to appear In the ling. He says that the stage Is all right as a side Issue but he Is a fighter and does not want the people to lose track of that fact. Manager Harris Is thoroughly In accord with McGovern In this respect. The m-Uc-n between McGovern and Joe Gans. which Is scheduled to take place tn Chicago. December H, Is not yet a certainty The hitch Is In regard to the time of weighing In. Al Hereford, who Is looking after Gans's interest* Insists that the articles so read that Gans must weigh 1U pounds or under at 7 o'clock on the evening' of the fight, while Manager Harris insists that Gans shall be undet the limit at the ringside. There Is a difference of about two hours between the two managers »s to the time of weighing In. This looks like a little matter, but It really amounts to a good deal. By forclr« Gans to weigh in at the ringside, the Baltimore fighter will be compelled to keep reducing until Just before entering

He will appear at the Park Theater every afternoon and evening until Thursday In •'The Bowery After Dark.” While fulfilling his theatrical engagements he Is keeping up his active training and regretted the necessity of having to forego hla ten-mile run this morning. McGovern will meet Joe Bernstein In a twenty-flve-round conteet In Louisville Friday night, and for that reason Is Just now paying particular attention to hts training. He leads his sparring partner. Danny Dougherty, a lively chase every twenty-four hours. In addition to appearing twice a day In a sparring and training bout bn the stags, he devotes from one to two hours to wrestling, boxing, sparring and bag punching Immediately after the afternoon performance and takes a run of eight to ten miles every morning Hla work on the stage at the Park this week will be the ‘Teal thing," as his part In "The Bowery After Dark" has been so arranged that he can utilise the sparring and training scene in assisting him in hts work of preparation for the Bernstein fight. McGovern will go to Louisville Thursday and have just one day's test before the battle. While not under-estimating Bernstein’s strength or ability. McGovern thinks ha will win with comparative ease, and doe* not expect the fight to be a long on* He says he is in ths best of condition, and looks it. "If a man takes care of himself," said the little champion, “there is no reason why he can not appear on the stage and keep up his regular training. He simply has to work a little bit. harder, and get to bed aa soon as he leaves the theater, that Is all." In cass the match with Gans la mads, McGovern will rest a Week prior to that contest, as he realises it will be one of the hardest he has yet taken on. He will concede at least ten pounds and go out of his daaa to get the match, for Gans Is a lightweight.

There far no doubt that th* American League circuit committee, which meets to-day In Chicago to hear the report of PreaMant Johnson, and will than probably accompany him on another visit to Baltlmor* Washington and Philadelphia. will recommend that both Washington aad Baltimore be annexed to the America* League circuit. Whether permission will be asked of th* National League to Invade this territory, or whether the American League will simply put clubs In the ahead Independent of League, la another Johnson is tn favor i while some of the more conaervs members of ths American League believe that it is better policy to conciliate the National League and Join forces with It In the attempt to euppress the National Association scheme. President Watkins haa gons to hla farm In Michigan, aad will probably remain there until the meeting of the American League club owners, which will be held some time before November 10. The circuit committee will then be ready to make Its report, and ths American League will be reorganised at that
ottlee and go the National la another question. President Is In favor of the latter course, live

The 1388 season of Th* News Baseball League has com* to a close with Station A. in possession of th* pennant, which will fly over the station at the corner of College avenue and Twenty-second
etreet.
There were a number of postponed games unplayed, but thee* It waa found best to declare off on account of many of th* players having their time fully occupied with their work and studies. For the same reason several team* lost games by default during the close of th* season, thus allowing probably weaker teems to gain In the percentage table. Lack of team practice kept the Central and Sellers teams down. These clubs were composed of carriers and sellers getting their papers at the main station and lacked the opportunity of "getting together” afforded the boys at sub-ata-
Uoas.
Th* league consisted of sight dubs, made up of boys handling Th* Nswa— two clubs from th* home station and six from as many sub-stations. It was maintained by The Newe for the pleasure of th* boy* Station man acted as managers of teams, thus insuring good behavior on Ufe part of th* players, few cases of rough playing w<
ported.
The games were, with a few mod lions, played under the rules of American League.
