WERTZ SHINES IN MANUAL WIN Fighting Back Scores Both Touchdowns Over Sheridan. Manual High School footballers. as long as they have Wertz in the back ! field and that 9hot of ginger that has j always been one of the big features In j Indianapolis high school athletics, are not! going to let themselves bo bothered by a | little thing like the lack of experience j that a week or so so ago appeared to be j the Waterloo of the Manual, Shortridge and Tech grid aspirations. Sheridan High School, for years rated as one of the championship grid combine.- j tions in the State, visited Indianapolis for a tilt with tbe Red and White warriors on Irwin field yesterday, and last ; night they went home, saddor but wiser. 1 Sad over their 13-to-7 defeat, nnd wise to the fact that Indianapolis prep teams aren't going to be easy meat the State teams thought, they would be this year. GAINS GROUND EVERY TIME. Wertz, plus a barrel of fight, spelled the south side victory yesterday. The speedy left half back of the Manual team was tbe star of the game from whistle to whistle. Never did he fail to go over for a gain when he was called upon and when hi* ripped through the Sneridau line for his si*cond touchdown with something like two minutes to go, the. Manual students put him on the books as n capital-lettered hero. Elliot and Parr starred for Sheridan, the former scoring tbeir touchdown and kicking goal after the trick. Mnnuaiitos went into the game with fight written all over their features and It did not take them long to carry the ball down the field to a scoring position, from where Wertz tore around the end for first point*. 11. Hurmeson kicked goal. The honors were split fifty-fifty for the next two periods, neither side being able to take tbe ball over, although both bad several chances to do so, only to be held for down*. In the fourth period. Sheridan opened with renewed rigor and a twenty yard run by Elliot, then a line plunge by the same athlete, put the ball over. Elliot tied the score by kicking goal. COME BACK FOR VICTORY. The Manual students rose to their feet and shouted for another touchdown and Wertz was there to meet the demands. He punted to the Sheridan twenty-yard line and the visitors were held there for downs. Then Manual advanced the ball to (he five-yard station and Wertz took It through the Sheridan defensive force for the victory. H. Harmeson missed goal The plsylng In yesterday’s game was not of the brilliant type, as a whole. Both teams showed several weak spots, poo/ tackling being the big defect In both machines, but Manual 1* picking up rapidly and Coach Evans will be steering a real football eleven before the season closes. H. Hsrmeson registered the distance sprint in the contest when he got away j for forty yards In the second period. PLANS FOR NEW PUBLIC xMARKET GO GLIMMERING (Continued From Page One.) avenue and Drover site for tbe street • leaning barn as soon this fall as the street repair work Is completed, the president stated.

In wbb-h the mayor must either sign, veto or Ignore and technically veto On ordinance after It has been sent to him by the council, expired the council had not received the measure back. The ordinance was promptly passed over tbe mayor’s technical veto. A few days later tho mayor returned from one of his numerous trips out of the city and explained that he had signed the ordinance In plenty of time but had locked It up In his desk before leaving and had forgotten to notify hi* secretary of It. This explanation was greeted by the south side women with considerable amusement. The procrsst’natlon on the municipal yard* project Is only one of the many Instance* of abject neglect of city affairs of which the mayor has been guilty since he started devoting most of ulv time to the development of his hog farm at Arlington avenue ami the Pendleton pike snd to “sounding the Harding sentiment" in this and adjoining States Department heads who early In Mr, Jewett's administration looked to the executive offices for guidance and the coordination between departments which make for well regulated progress have long since been left to run city affairs hit or miss with the result that only the routine affairs which call for little or no exercise of Judgment receive attention. The best evidence that the mayor has taken his hands off of the city helm wlthont even leaving a lieutenant to see whether the civic ship floats or sinks is in the fact that the weekly cabinet meetings, at which department heads exchanged ideas and discussed plans, have not been held for months. HARDING‘FACES’ LEAGUE ISSUES ONCE ‘SCRAPPED’ (Continued From Page One.) we are going to throw out is the Democratic administration at Washington." And all the while the police were pushing Kloe from the hall. The Senator recalled the arrest by the police at Baltimore of r man who heckled him and asserted that It was not his fault that the man was put out. The police force of Baltimore Is In sympathy with a Democratic adminlsj trntlon, he declared. But Klee was kept from getting back i Into Tomlinson Hall by Mayor Charles j W. Jewett’s Republican police force. The Republican candidate devoted the : major part of an hour and ten mlnntes ! at Tomlinson Hall to an attempt to Jus- | tlfylug his repeated changes of front on the league and talked more upon ! minor national Issues, such as permitting | American ships to use the Panama canal j free of toll, in a brief pddress to an overflow crowd of 10 000 of more In front of the Hotel 3s?ss<s later In the evening. Senator Harding, like Herbert Hoover in his address nt the Columbia Club last Saturday, attempted to belittle the I League of Nations as a political issue, despite repented assertions of Republican National Chairman Will 11. Hays thnt the Republican party accepted it as the great question of the campaign, asserting that the Democratic party is making n “concerted attempt to turn the eyes of the American people away from the spectacle of mismanagement of their own affairs to an extensive discussion of America's obligation to the other nations of the world." He charged that his opponents hsve no practical program to offer at home, no constructive proposal to make for Ainer- ; lea and asserted thnt even should a Democratic President be elected he could not j force the Wilson League of Netions as it ; stands today upon the people because the people would never permit their Concress, of no matter whnt political complexion, to "bind the American people nor mortgage their conscience and their honor under article 10." Repeating his gaggrtton that when

elected he will “summon the best mind* in America, representing an all American opinion, to consult and advise as to America's relationahlp to the present association of nations, to modifications of it, or substitutes for it.” Mr. Harding read from hia address of Aug. 28, delivered to a delegation from Indianapolis, the passage which marks his new reversal from his “league scrapping” stand at Des Moines. This passage Is as follows: “If, in the failed league of Versailles, there can be found machinery which the tribunal can use properly and advantageously. by all means let it be appropriated.

“I would even go further. “I would take and combine all that is good and excise all that Is bad from j both organization*. "This statement Is broad enough to i include the suggestion that if the league, : which has heretofore riveted our con- ; slderations and apprehensions, has been so entwined and interwoven into the I peace of Europe, tljat its good must be preserved in order to stabilize the peace of that continent, then It can be amended or revised so that we may still have a remnant of the world's aspiration# of 1918, bullded Into the world’s highest coneept'en of helpful cooperation in the ultima ? realizations.” SPEECH FOLLOWS LINE OF HOOVER'S ARGUMENT. He declared that he is for cooperation i of nations to prevent war, but that “it Is better to build up peace through justice than to promote the alliance of armed forces; that it Is better to promote understanding and foster common Interest, and to seek friendly under- ! standing, aye to establish common council and turn the light of world opinion upon developing controversy, than to seek gaper-government and the suppression of war by force.” This Is the exact idea, if not the exact i word* expressed by Herbert Hoover in Ills Columbia Club address and political ; observers found In it further evidence that Harding recognizes that he made a tremendous mistake In his Des Moines speech, and that he mast make amends <ia. kly or be lost. The Senator made It even stronger that he recognizes the national drift toward the “President's league" with tbe statement: “There is no issue drawn between the President's league and no league or association . “Thcie never har been. "But we are against tbe league which was negotiated and Interwoven with the peace treaty in defiance of friendly American warning. "Few people In America are opposed to anew relationship for nations. “In the Senate we went a long way toward accepting the President’s league by safeguarding the interest* and freedom of America. “But the President and a body of his follower* rejected the covenant after our own republic was safeguarded. “That did not raise the issue of the league or no association, but it did raise the issue between super-government and free America.” Before hi* discussion of the league question Senator Harding replied to several points of criticism of his course made by Democratic orators, Including Governor Cox. POINTS NEED FOR “SOBER JUDGMENT” Recalling that It has been said that he Is nt n good man on the stump because be Is not quick to grasp a situation and meet It he said: “Well, one of the things the country needs is sober Judgment.” “The Government does not need heroism and heroics and heraldry so much as It does healing" He made a plea for the re-election of Jatnes E Watson to the United States Senate from Indiana, and of Merrill Moores to the House of Representatives from Marlon County. America did not fight In the world war war for democracy or even for humanity, the candidate declared. Speaking of the war, he said: “We helped to win the war and we didn't nsk anything material when the war was over. “We didn't ask for any plunder; we only asked for peace and :t Just settlement; we were only asking for a protection of American rights. “That's whnt we fought the war fori “We didn't fight the war for democ- : racy. “If we had then we ought to have gone Into It when domeocracy first began to bleed. “We didn't go to war for humanity’s j sake even, though that would have been I a cause worthy the unsheathing of our j sword. "We went to war when America's na- j tlonal rights were threatened, but we I didn't go then until we’d won an elec- j Mon. "I’m opposed to this continued promo- j tlon of peace during presidential campaign years and waging of war in others.” He declared that he has beeen deliberately misquoted by Democratic speakers who used words ho is supposed to have spoken in Congress to show that he favors conscriptatory universal military service. He said that if he had been quoted correctly and the circumstances under which the statements he made were de- : llvered made plain It would be clearly understood that he believes In conscription In time of war, but In voluntary universal military training during peace. James E. Watson. Republican candidate for Senator, and Warren T. McCray, Republican candidate for Governor, spoke to the overflow crowd in the Circle before l Senator Hardin garrived from Tomlinson Hall.

DEMOCRATS FUND IS SOARING DAILY 5,000 Individual Subscriptions Received on Friday. Special to The Times. NEW YORK. Oct. 16.—Wilber W. Marsh, treasurer of the Democratic national committee is wearing a broad smile. Tbe reason is that Friday was a banner day In the receipt of campaign, contributions—ln the neighborhood of five thousand Individual contributions being received —from men and women resident* of every State In the Union, who sent their checks, which averaged $5. One of the checks, calling for $260, was from William E. Miles of San Francisco, a prominent Republican. Another bore the signature of Mrs. Nathan Straus of New York. Ethel Soper Hardy of Chattanooga, Tenn., whose husband, she says, “is n violent Republican,” sent $lO to the Democratic national committee to assist It in disseminating educational props gnnda with relation to the League of Nations. “For the first time In my life, I am subscribing to the Democratic national campaign fund,” wrote Alexander Mav Mn, 1728 Chestnut street, Philadelphia, In the letter accompanying his check for $25, received by Treasurer Marsh. “I am heart and soul for the League of Nations, with or without reservations, believing it to be tbe greatest attempt which has ever been made in the history of man to make peace for the world.” WOMAN GIVES SSO TO CAUSE. Fifty dollars In crisp new bUls were received by Treasurer Marsh from a woman who did not give her name, but who signed herself “just a woman and a church member who believes In voting as she prays.” Her letter follows: Because of my confident and faith In Governor Cox and the League of Nations, I am sending SSO for the Democratic campaign fund. If I did not do what I cquld for this great cause., the League of Nations, I would be as gulltv as those who crucified a great ideal two thousand years ago. It is the duty o* every Christian man or woman in the Master's cause to vote and do what he or she cap for the weak and helpless. Let ns take our Bible and read the parable I of the good Samaritan and then ask ourselves “who Is my neighbor.” “Match the President” contributions aggregated $30,000.

COLBY ATTACKS HARDING STAND Says G. O. P. Candidate Is Drifting Into Sea of Opportunism. CHICAGO, Oct. 16.—Declaring that Senator Warren G. Harding has "severed his connection with the Nation’s conscience and aspirations and la drifting Into the Sea of Opportunism uncharted by principles or high purposes,” Secretary of State Bainbrtdge Colby, speaking in Chicago and Evanston today, vigorously defended the League of Nations. Declaring the league question a simple one, Secretary Colby flayed Republican Senators for "expressing their hatred of a great Democratic President and their insensate jealousy of a great Democratic Administration. “The nation's word is given,” he aald, In explaining the league question early In his addresses. “Our honor Is pledged. The Republicans say It is not and nothing Irritates them more than to say it Is. but the fact remains that it la.” Secretary Colby enumerated the nations which already have accepted the League of Nations as law and turned again briefly to the Senators who hare opposed the league. "There is not a Republican In the Senate," be said, “unless It be the deluded Borah, who really believes that the T'ntted States, by participation In the League of Nations, sacrifices one jot or tittle of its true sovereignty. We reserve the right to withdraw, should it prove a failure, or If It should not prove an effective instrumentality of peace. This reserved right Is an element of our sovereignty.” Prison Worker Will Address Rotary Club B. Ogden Chisolm of New York City, an exponent of better prisons, will be the principal speaker at the weekly luncheon of the Rotary Club Tuesday at the Claypool Hotel. It is said that he has visited more than 65 per cent of the prisons in the United Rtates. and Is still engaged in this work, his interest haring begun with his appointment in 1900 as a member of the executive board of the New York Prison Association.

He was appointed a delegate to represent the State of New York to the convention of the American Prison Congress at Columbus, Ohio, Oct. 14 to 18, and It Is due to this that the Rotarlans will be able to have him as a guest on Tuesday.
