SATURDAY FOOTBALL CARD INCLUDES HOT RIVALRY CONTESTS AMONG INDIANA ELEVENS
FOUR BATTLES WITHIN STATE ATTRACT FANS Earlham-Butler to Play for Local Rooters in Game Arousing Keen Interest. DE PAUW HAS BIG DAY by HEZE CLARK. While gome of the Indiana school* have •pen dates on their football schedule Saturday, there are other* which have Important contests scheduled. Four pime* between Indiana college eleven* will have a direct result on the State championship race. Butler meets Earlhaun, De Pauw plays Franklin, Notre Dame clashes with Valparaiso, and Wabash will be Rose Poly’s opponent. Purdue and Indiana rest Saturday. Indianapolis football fans will watch Butver and Earlham at the Butler athletic field* That Is sure to be a bitterly fought contest. Last year Earlham defeated Butler, 6 to 0. That game was played at Richmond. This year Coach Howe brings his Quaker!* to Indianapolis fresh from their three victories over Hanover, Wilmington and Rose Poly. The latter game was won by Earlham by a 7-to-6 s'.-ore In a hard-fought battle last Saturday at Richmond. Coach Pat Page did not have material at Butler which, early in the year, would indicate that he would have a chance against a team as strong as Earlham. The Butler men lacked experience. The Blue and White hit a tough team at the very start of the season when Wittenberg, the champions of the Ohio Conference, won by a 20-to-0 score. However, it appeared to be a game in which Etter, the star half back of the Ohio aggregation, was the "balance of power," and the best thing about that game, from a Butler standpoint, was the .fighting spirit of Pace s men. Then came the Hanover game. Butler teemed to be just finding Its scoring power. After Hanover scored In _ the opening quarter, the Bluo and White athletes got busy and with an offense that showed promise of developing into a great scoring machine, Butler piled up a top heavy score. The Wilmington team Invaded Indiana three times and Franklin started by pil- j lng up a 55 to 0 count against the green jerseyed aggregation, and Earlham also 1 piled up a big count against Wilmington Then came the 74 to 0 victory of Butler over Wilmington. Butler never made that score as large as Butler could have made it, but the sire of the score indicates Butler has offensive strength. STRONG DEFENSE WILL BE NEEDED. ' How about Butler's defense? That Is probably Just what is in Pat Page's mind today. His team has had "o real defensive test since the Wittenberg game. Some followers of the gridiron sport seem to fear that possibly Butler has developed a machine-like offense but has not had the opportunity to develop its defense. Butler will need a strong defense against the Quaker eleven. The strength of Coach Mowe’s team lies in its big. powerful line, and it would appear that Earlham has a shade on Butler In the line. In weight at least. Howe'er, the Butler students are consoling themselves with the old saying, "a strong offense is the best defense." At any rate there will be a great battle at the football field in Irvington Saturday. ‘‘Ohl Gold day” at Greencastle will be celebrated by a football game between De Pauw and Frankiln. Last year the Tigers won oy the margin of one touchdown, scored early in the game. Coach Buss and Coach Thurber both point their teams to this annual contest and the game Saturday is sure to be a good one. Last year the two teams met on a tnuridy field in a driving rain and the players of both teams could not show their best. This year the field will be dry anil a great game of football is sure to be played at Greencastle when the Baptists meet the Tigers. Wabash vs. Rose Poly at Terre Haut* is a game attracting State-wide attentiou. Wabash held Chicago in the first period of the game on Stagg field last Saturday, but the Maroons swept over the struggling Little Giants in the last three periods. Coach Vaughan has had bad luck on injuries at Crawfordsville and it Is bard to gay Just what shape the Wabash team is in. Coach “Lefty” Gilberts has lost two tough-luck games this season. Rose lo to St. Louis University, 3 to 0. and to Earlham. 7 to 6. The Engineers will be out to do a comeback Saturday and the game with Wabash will be * battle. Lost year Rose and Wabash met in a rain storm and the field looked like a lake. The score was 0 to 0 with three minutes to play when Wabash scored a field goal and then a touchdown. VALPO GAME TO BE WATCHED. Many football fans are wondering what will happen at Notre Dame when Valparaiso meets Coach Kockne's combination. Valpo has slipped into the center of the football map in the West in just two years and Valpo played Harvard to a 0-to-0 tie in the opening half this season, though the eastern school scored 21 to 0 on the Hooslers in the last half. Notre Dame won its first games by top-heavy scores and then defeated Nebraska at Lincoln last Saturday. This indicates that Coach Rockne again has a powerful eleven. There is one game not played by Indiana teams, but which is attracting na-tion-wide attention. Thnt game Is the Harvard-Center College (Ky.) battle at Cambridge Saturday. The Indiana football fans are watching Centre, as it is a western team and is scheduled to play De Pauw in Indianapolis Nov. 6. Many there are who believe Centre will defeat Harvard. However, Centre will not equal the eastern eleven in the line and the difference in weight is sure to give Harvard a great advantage. “Red” Robert* and “Bo” McMillln, the Kentucky back field stars, will trouble the eastern athletes with their speed, forward passes and trick plays, but still the advantage of Harvard’s line gives the easterners the edge. BOXING SMITH BADLY HURT IN BOUT. SOUTH BEND. Ind.. Oct. 22—Gunboat Smith was not only knocked out by Harry Greb of Pittsburgh heTe last night, but it was thought likely today that he will lose the sight of his right eye. Smith's eye was so badly damaged by a blow a few seconds before the knockout cam* that Dr. Bonine Niles, an eye specialist, who was at the ringside, declared that It is probable the sight of the eye was permanently destroyed. The fight lasted exactly two minutes. Greb caught Smith with a left hook to the right eye ball that blinded him and followed this with a shower of punches that sent the “Gunner" down for the count NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 22.—John \brams promoted his last fight this week in Heinemann Baseball Park, announcing his retirement Just before the battles started. He said he would devote his time to managing fighters. Red Doian knocked out Young Leonard in the ninth of a ten-round fight. Ashton Donzu won a six-round decision from Kid Cnttana. Young Fiske got the decision over Kid Emmet in six round*. Joe Mandot and Joe Thomas boxed a fourround exhibition. Call the Grand Jury SARATOGA SPRINGS, N. Y., Oct. 22. —Charges of fraud and deceit against Ralph Greemleaf, pocket billiard chain plon, are made by Robert E. Ducal In a Supreme Court action started by him as a result of a pocket billiard match played by the champion and Joseph Con. cannon in this city Aug. 16, 17 and Ift. Duval assert* that at the time of the match he was given to understand by Greemleaf that the title was to be passed in casa of his defeat by Concannon, but that later he learned that the two playt era agreed betaween themselves that the match should be surely an exhibition affair. The match was won by Concannon by a score of 450 to 429. Asa remedy Mr. Duval seeks to recover S3OO paid by him to Greenleaf following the match.
Muncie to Replace Sheridan in Sunday Pro Gridiron Scrap Wabash Conquerors Promise Hot Battle for Canning’s Undefeated Local Eleven. Unable to whip their injured members Into shape and aware of the fact that they could not play the brand of football Sunday against the Indianapolis Club that the fans will be looking for, the Sheridan Independents have been sportsmen enough to concede their place on the Washington Park card to a stronger team, the Muncie Tigers, who will come here with a record of having played five consecutive seasons without a defeat. The most recent notable victory of the MTtncie aggregation was scored Sunday when they defeated the famous Wabash A. A. championship eleven, 16 to 13, In a bitter struggle. Jack McCade brought home the Muncie victory with u drop kick from the forty-five yard line in the closing seconds of play. The Tiger eleven has always stood for fast, clean football and there is no doubt but that a great scrap will be staged when they invade the city for their affair with the local representatives. However, no matter how good the Tigers are, they are not going to have an easy time trouncing Manager Canning’s combination of veteran gridsters, who are in the best of physical condition, and will show before a home crowd for the first time of the season Sunday with a clean record. Canning will send his men through a stiff drill at College avenue and Fail Creek tonight, opening with a crosscountry jaunt over the boulevard. Tomorrow afternoon they will be out for a short signal practice ami when hey take the field Sunday afternoon the fans will see one of the smoothest running independent grid combinations turned out in this city since the majority of the same men carried the K. F. M. banner.

Umpire Chill Returns After Best Season, and as Busy Tire Magnate After enjoying his best season in baseball Umpire Ollle Chill of the American League returned to Indianapolis today for a short visit among hi* home town acquaintances. Ollle makes Cleveland his home now, but nevertheless Indianapolis is still his native heath. Ollle handled many of the important series in the hot American League pennant fight the last season and bad little trouble with the players. In spite of thfact that the nervous strain the athletes were under caused them to be more or less excitable. Chill started his diamond career here and gradually worked up from the minors to the major circuit. HU rise and success in the game is unusual, in that he is small of stature, but what he lacks in height and "beef” he makes up for in "ginger” and accuracy. Ollle has become interested in a big and growing tire und rubber plant iu Cleveland and occupies the important position of secretary. It is the Seeandbee Tire and Robber Company and associated with Chill are G. W. Ilerbst, D. C. Hathaway and Harry F. Bryan, all men of more or less fame in the business world. The company is said to be well financed and advertised and Chill believes it U sure to be a winning proposition. Ollle's friends will not bo surprised to learn that he baa become a tire mag nate, because be always has been a bustler ou the baseball field and off of it.

BASKET FANS ARE REJOICING Greatest Net Event of Country Here in March. Indianapolis basket-ball fans today were rejoicing over the award of the 1921 State high school championships to this city made at a meeting of the members of the Indiana State High School Athletic Association yesterday afternoon. The event will he staged at the State fairground coliseum the latter part of March following the playing of the d's- | trict meet here and as a result Indianapolis now steps forward as the real and actual basket-ball center of Indiana, j At the State meeting yesterday Indiana j University and Purdue wore present with | their usual bids and invitations to win . the next net championship event, but j after the local situation had been ex- | plained to the members by Milo H. Stuart, principal of Technical High School the first vote on the awarding of the meet found Indianapolis leading the poll STUART POINTS OUT ADVANTAGES. Principal Stuart explained that there was no good reason why the association should send the greatest basket-ball event in the world to any other place, ns there Is no city in Hoosierdom so Sell qualified as Indianapolis to handle e event, the athletes and. the enormous crowds of fans that are now sot lowing the play. > Principal Stuart iiTformed the association that representatives of the three local high schools. Manual, Sbortrldge and Teen; Butler College, the Chamber of .Commerce and other civic organizations of the citv were present to support him in his invitation. He carried a letter from George Weibaum, chairman of the Chamber of Commerce athletic committee, pledging the support of that body in the event the tournament was sent here. Chairman R. C. Johnson asked for a vote of the body and 116 were lu favor of Indianapolis;' 101 for Purdue, and 77 for Indiana. Efforts were made at the meeting yesterday toward dividing the State championships into two sections, a north and a south, determining the championship teams of those two sections, hut these movements were checked when it was explained that this would leave the State title unsettled and there was no use In having a State athletic association if State championships could not be deter- : mined. |GUARD AGAINST GAMBLING EVIL. ! Permanent Secretary A. L. Trestcr and • K. V. Ammerman, Manual athletic dlj rector who represents the Fourth district on the board of eoutrol, belleTe the ! members of the association took a dis tame step toward stopping gambling in i high aohool athletic contest* -when it was voted that no coach should be permitted to accept a gift of any kind from any party or parties not connected with tb school where he is employed. This will eliminate any possible chance of a coach doing "favors” for person* to whom he is in a wuy Indebted for various gifts. Members of the board of control of the I. H. S. A. A. who were present at the meeting are: R. C. Johnson. Rochester, president; A. L. Trester, La Porte, permanent secretary; Merle Abott, Bedford, corresponding secretary ; _K. V. Ammerman. Indianapolis; C. C. Carson. Peru, and W. W. Leffell, Warsaw, district representatives. Anew reteord of twenty-six sections was set last year, due to th* fact that the State body grew rapidly in the few months preceding the tourney. This year another tzurk undoubtedly will be hung up aa the* registration board has listed edmost a hundred new schools since the 1919 tournament, bringlnir the total number of members up to 600. This means! t nr then- probably will be thirty sec-1 tlonal centers. ENORMOUS CROWDS HU RE TO COME. A summing up of evidence shows that IndDnapfdi* faces the task of staging the largest basket-ball tournament finals ever held, and of entertaining the largest crowd 'that ever turned out for an event of this kind in Indiana.

Shortridge Eleven Tackles Brazil in Second Home Battle The Shortridge High School football team was to make its first appearance before home fans since the season-open-ing game with Wabash Oct. 2. this afternoon with Brazil High at Irwin field. Just what the chance of a local victory is in this game was not known, for ▼cry little dope was available regarding the respective strength of the two teams. However, the north aiders havp been idle, while tho other two Indlauapolis schools were out adding to the win column, and they were out this afternoon to fatten their percentage at the expense of Brazil and fill up the gap intervening between them and Manual and Tech. The Blue and White showed a world of class and a wonderful fighting spirit in their game with Wabasb, one of the strongest teams in the State, and their 69 to 0 win over Richmond two weeks ago is strong evidence that Coach Julius’ I aggregation has hit a winning stride. Their performance thia afternoon was to be watched with interest by every high school follower In Indianapolis. The announcement that George Clark, star half back, who hag been laid up with • bad ankle, would play in today’s game, sent Shortridge victory stock up to the sky. Clark is one of the best high school punters in Indiana and the backbone of the Shortridge offense. Tb* probable Shortridge line-up was: Harvey, right end; Stull, right tackle; 1 Mitchell, right guard; Dunbar, center;, Bash, left guard; Churchman, left tackle; Lotlck. left end; Lusby, quarter; Clark,, fight half; Riley, left; Kilgore, full.
