Throughout the Purdue-Chicago football game at Stagg field last Saturday, when th* Boiler Maker banks fumbled and then failed to break up the well planned forward pausing game of the Maroons, the Gold and Black line held firm, and actually outplayed the Chicago forward# for three of the four quarters. Ail week long Coach Scanlon baa been working to eradicate the weaknesses that appeared in the backfieid in the Chicago game, and with these defects gone. Purdue should put up one big game against Ohio State, and. playing up to the capabilities of its men aa indirtduals, actually should defeat the Buckeye*.

FRENCH GHAMPION POOR MATCH FOR DEMPSEY
OOr FAR FROM COCKY
PAUW EXPECTS TO HAVE GAME OF LIFE WITH ALBION FRIDAY.
CARPENTIER GIVEN LITTLE CREDIT FOR VICTORY OVfcR
OLD SECOND RATER.
NEW YORK. October 14.—While the local fight fans are willing to concede that Georges Carpentier is a great fighter, they are not prepared to say the Frenchman Ik big enough to tackle such a tough proposition as Jack Dempsey. The concensus seems to be that the flashy foreigner had better steer clear of the mighty maul,er from Utah. Notwithstanding that the talent is willing to admit that Carpentier showed skill, speed and a wonderful wallop, they insist the fi«ht with LevInsky Tuesday night should be thrown out of the calculations. They point out that Levlnsky was a wornout aecond-rater, without a semblance of defense and that he was a veritable target for the sharp-shooting Idol of Prance. WMe-Opea Fighter. Carpentier 1# a wide-open fighter and would prove a sucker for Dempsey, I# another argument presented by those who can not “see” the French-
man.
Little credit is being given to the foreigner for hia knockout of the veteran. He must step out and beat some one more formidable than Levlnsky before they will concede he haa a look-in with Champion Dempsey. Many of the expert# think Carpentier floundered badly in the second round, when he had Levlnsky on the verge of a knockout. It Is true Carpentier waa wild and showed poor sense of judgment daring this particular period, but this was probably due to his eagerness to finish the easy tank before him. It is also true that Carpentier was almost completely unprotected, after missing his swings, and that a slip-up of this nature would prove fatal to him if he were fighting the champion. No one can grow lax with Dempsey and get away with it. CarpyHlier*# supporters insist the Frenchman showed enough against Levlnsky to warrant his right to meet Dempsey.

SOOTH BEND. Ind.. October 14.— For the fir»t time in footbaU hi#tory the appearance of the Valparaiso University football team In South Bend !« exciUng interest. In past year# the appearance of Valparaiso here ha# been regarded as merely a preliminary event of the football season. but thi# year the Valparaiso team is expected to give Notre Dame a real battle on October 23. The sudden rise of Valpo in the football world is due to the quick thinking of the athletic board of the college last fall when the Notre Dame game with Harvard was cancelled. Almost before the word of the cancellation had been given. Valparaiso immediately wired Harvard for a chance to fill in the date, and when the offer was accepted a strenuous effort wa# made to build up the best team Valparaiso ever had. Valpo. however, haa a real team this year, the eleven being composed of men who will greatly outweigh the local eleven, man for man. The showing made by Valpo against Harvard last week was said to be the best that any team has made at Cambridge this season. Notre Dame’s effort, therefore, will be to see how much harder they can defeat Valpo and thus bring about some kind of a comparison of the relative strength of western and eastern elevens. EUGWYMGIE IN BIG YEN CIRCLES QUESTION OVER S A. T. C. RULING AS AFFECTING TWO MAROON STARS
HANOVER NOT TRIMMED YET, SAY SUPPORTERS
WONT ADMIT FRANKLIN CAN BEAT THEM UNTIL TRICK IS TURNED.
HANOVER. Ind.. October 14.—A number of Hanover fans found it quite difficult to analyse the work of the local team during the last thr^e quarters of the game against Butler during which time the Pagemen made seven touchdowns and Hanover was “up in the air” completely, especially after Hanover completely outplayed !
Butler during the entire first quarter and “drew first blood'’ with a touchdown after such brilliant display of football that it drew comment ,rom those rarely given to praise of this sort. But to the experienced follower of the game there is no mystery to be found in what happened on Irwin field last Saturday. A “green'’ squad with leas than three weeks* coaching can not possibly, even under the most favorable circumstances, get more than the fundamentals of “straight” footbaU and be reasonably well equipped to play that type of game The ability to analyse and break up trick plays and especially, such a# Page ha* drilled into his men come# only after more extensive practice and experience.

FANS FROM MISSOURI ON CHAMEUON STUFF NEW YORK. October 14 —Fight fans here today began the expected clamor for a fight between Jack Dempsey and Georges Carpentier. Added to the desire to see the champion matched against the best available man was the hankering to determine whether Carpentier really is the "chamelon” of the ring. Carpentier earned the title “chameleon” when his manager claimed the fighter changes bis style according to conditions as the chameleon changes his color. Carpentier will remain here until the end of the year at least, it was said today. The Dempsey forces were said to be eager for the meeting.
the solution to the Butler victory. Everything went well with the locals as long as it was straight footbaU, but when in the course of the second quarter Butler started in with their “fifty-seven varieties’* of trick plays, Hanover was lost and the team practically went to pieces. In the practice work of the present week Coach Norgan is trying to remedy thi* weakness in getting ready for Franklin which plays here in the first home game of the season on Friday afternoon. The Thurberites have always been most worthy opponents and all indications point to a close game, although no line of dope for the comparative strength of the two teams is available^

CHICAGO, October 14.—All the football battles of the Big Ten conference will not be played on the gridiron this fall. One of the hottest fights of all ia being staged behind closed doors, over thp telegraph wires and by mail. The 1920 gridiron son test is between the faculty rer resen tat ives of the ten conference scnools over eligibility of two University of Chicago football players. Moffet Elton and Tarxan Reber, halfback and center on Coach Stagg’s eleven for the last three seasons. Both are on the side lines at present and will not be played until the conference board comes to a definite decision. Wrangle Concerns S. A. T. C. The whole wrangle, which is stirring up a lot of bitter feeling on the Midway, is over the question of whether- the S. A. T. C. season of 1918 shall count as a year of eligibility. Chicago says that It does not count, but four members of the board say that in the case of the two Maroons it does count as a year of football. Dean Albion W. Small. Chicago representative, said in his office yesterday: ‘T am at a loss as to explain how these charges started. At a meeting of the board in Chicago on September 20, 1918, the conference suspended all control of athletics and turned the handling of the intercollegiate games over to the war department. “I understand that Angus Goetz, the present Michigan football captain, played in 1917 and 1919, in addition to the S; A. T. c. season of 1918, and as he is playing this year, we are confident that Michigan inten?reu the rule as we do.” The wrangle has aroused bitter feeling on the campus toward Hlinois. where the charges started, and where the students believe there are no men in the same situation as Reber and Elton.
