Refusing to let up in their fierce fight- i Ing after they were apparently defeated by a 9-to-7 score, the Muncie Tigers rirped off seventy-five and seventy-yard dashes in the final moments of play to defeat the Indianapolis Football club, 21 to 9. yesterday In the opening professional grid contest of/ the season at ■Washington park. The contest was one that kept the fans 1 or their toes every minute of the playing time and gave them assurance that they are In line for some hot pro battles before the season curtain drops. Muncie broke into the win column Brat in the opening period, when Baldwin punted the ball to Indianapolis territory and the Tiger line held the locals for downs. Then two passes, Etchison to Rafferty and Etchison to Skinner put the ball over the goal line. Etchison 'kicked goal. Iddlannpolis tightened up on both, the offense and defense in the second period and had the hall in scoring distance almost constantly, but they lost It time after time after being held for downs or by fumbling, and Baldwin wonld send them back past the middle of the field with one of his brilliant punts. In the third period, the Indianapolis assault gained more fury and the Purple and White athletes hurried the ball to Muncie’s thirty yard line, from where Rog Klein dropped a place kick between the posts. Glen Kline went In to relieve Yott at quarter In the fourth session. Yott going to half, and opened up an airlal attack that dumbfounded the visitors long enough to let Pat Fox, star Indianapolis end, cross the scoring line after accepting a thirty-yard toss. Instead of playing a safety game at this time, the locals kept up their aerial play and the result was a Muncie victory. The visitors came up from behind when Etchison blocked Ferree’s attempt at a place kick, recovering the ball and tearing seventy-five yards down the field behind a three-man interference for a touchdown. He also kicked goal after the touchdown. Indianapolis appeared on the way to another touchdown when they brought the ball down to Muncle’s thirty-yard line with a series of passes a few * seconds later, but here one of Kline's passes went into the arms of McCabe, who broke away for a seventyyard dash and another touchdown. The Indianapolis team played brilliant football at times and had their opponents at a standstill when they were going right, but their teamwork was not the best and had their back field been given more assistance from the line there probably would be another story to tell. In the three out-of-town games of the locals, their line has appeared a real bulwark of offensive and defensive strength, but the fighting Tigers tore It to pieces at times yesterday to get the backs before they could start with the ball. Harry Jackson proved the best ground gainer for tho Indianapolis team, although Harry Metzger and Rog Klein toth were going great until they were sent to the side'tlnes with injuries. Johnny Yott, quarter back, a)so got away for good gains through the line. Manager Canning will drill his Indianapolis athletes every night this week and when they take the field for their second home contest next Sunday there will be a big Improvement In their teamwork. Elks Coming Out After Basket-Ball Honors With Team Piloted by Feeney Indianapolis will be represented this year by one of the greatest combinations i of Independent basket ball talent that was ever brought together in the State, and the team will be known as the Indianapolis Lodge of Elks No. 13. John W. Head bus been chosen manpger, Heze Clark will act as assistant manager, and A1 Feeney will act as captain. The Elks will start practice this week and the first games will be played in December. A1 Feeney, famous Notre Dame stur, end well known in all parts of the country as guard on the Em-Roe basket-ball team during the last few years, has lined up oue of the best combinations of basket-ball talen that has ever been brought together in the country. Besides Feeney, the squad will Include Kline and Schoeneman, forwards; Babb, guard, and Hennesseey. “Doc” Campbell, all-Conference college center, whose playing put Purdue University at the top of the Big Ten Conference schools, also will play with the Elks, it is said. “Newt” Carlisle, famous De Pauw University forward, also will wear the Elks’ No. 13 tag, according to reports.. Two promising former high school athletes ' will ala* bo included In the Elks’-line-up. j Baiting*, former Anderson High School player, and Secrest, the Manual Training !

IN HIGH SCHOOL CAMPS

Shortridge has scored 117 points In tuo games against seven for their opponents. This goes to show that since the opening game of the season Coach Julius has developed a defense and an offense that will cause any team in the State a lot of trouble besides making the North Slders loom up as real contenders for the city title. Now for the thing that Indianapolis grid followers have been waiting for thirteen years, a football game between two Indianapolis high schools —Manual and Tech—next Friday afternoon on Irwin field. L V The loss of Temp Smith, Shortridge quarter, through ineligibility, is a hard blow to Blue and White followers, as Smith looked like the best quarter In the local high schools and was a bulwark of the Shortridge team. However, his place was ably filled Friday in the Brazil game by Lusby, tho should develop into a mighty good man. Incidentally the loss of Smith will mean the renaming of the tackling dummy at Technical for it had been named Temp Smith and every time a Green and White tackier hit it he pictured himself as breaking up a Shortridge play. Shortridge will meet Wabash High at

THREE LEFT IN BIG TEN RACE Illinois, Ohio and Chicago Stay in Running. Three each without the stain of defeat upon Us record, remain today In the race for Western Conference football honors. Illinois, Chicago and Ohio State form this trio. Michigan and Wisconsin were eliminated by Saturday’s contests. • That the field will be narrowed down to two next Saturday Is probable. Chicago and Ohio State will feature the coming week-end with a battle that vefgee on the “crucial.” Illinois will play Minnesota and the dope reada that the Illlnl should win. In that event Illinois and the winner of the Ohlo-Chicago battle will fight It out for the Big Ten title. Chicago, in preparation for the Ohio game, will endeavor chiefly this week to cure a bunch of back field cripples. If Injured Maroon regulars recover so that Coach Stagg can put his regular back field in the game against the Buckeyes, adherents of the Midway school will be optimistic of the outcome. Bob Zuppke, coach of the lilint, will devote most of his time to the development of his team’s qffense. In the game with Michigan It was a lack of offensive strength that was Illinois’ greatest weakness. Although Minnesota has been beaten by Northwestern and by lowa, 7-uppke does not hold the Gopher eleven light and will take no chances Saturday. Considerable interest is being manifested in the Indiana-Northwestern game at Indianapolis next Saturday. Wisconsin and lowa have no games scheduled this week and Michigan and Purdue will meet non-Conference teams. Harvard and Colonels Trade Compliments on Performances of Teams CAMBRIDGE. Mass.. Oct. 25 -The coaches and players of both Harvard University and Centre College had nothing but praise for the ability and sportsmanship of their opponents In Saturday’s football game. Capt. “Bo” McMlllln of Centre, summing up the reason for his team's defeat, said: “Harvard had the best line, and line play wins football games. Capt. Ilorween is a good piayer and a clean player and his generalship was splendid.” The opinion was freely expresoed by Coach Fisher of Harvard and his assistants and by his predecessor. Percy D. Haughton. founder of the coaching system at Harvard, that Centre's offensive was one of the most powerful that ever had been put forward In the stadium Coach Usher praised the “passing game” played by Centre and said he did not believe It likely that the Southerners would bo surpassed this season in this department. "Y'ou did a wonderful Job,” the Harvard mentor said to Capt. McMUlin when he shook his hand after the game. “Not wonderful.’ answered McMUlin, “but Just our best. They were Just a little too big for us and wonderfully coat-bed.” After Coach Moran of Centre had congratulated Fisher he uttered a word of praise for bis “own boys,” and said, “I certainly am proud of thpm.” ’’You have reason to be,” replied Fisher. “Y’ou had me worried considerably at one stage of the game.” When the coaches separated Moran, in a formal statement, said: “It may be possible, but it does not seem probable, that Harvard will suffer defeat this year.” The officials declared the game one of the most sportsmanlike in which they ever officiated. Commenting upon the styles of play of the teams, Referee R. W. Maxwell of Swarthmore said that Centre’s offensive appeared to be slightly better developed than that of Harvard. Dixie Teams Show Grit by Crossing Goal Lines of Big Eastern Elevens NEW Y’ORK, Oct. 25.—Football doctors felt the pulse of ten Eastern patients today and pronounced “condition all right, but the crisis is coming.” Harvard. Princeton, Penn State, Syracuse, Pittsburgh, Brown, Army, Cornell, Georgetown and Washington and Jefferson are alive. Saturday’s big card eliminated only Pennsylvania and Lehigh from the chase for the championship und the halfway mark finds ten elevens turning into the dangerous part of their schedule. Penn State, Harvard and Syracuse, however, seem hotter fixed to go over the rough pike of the next three weeks. Th Southern elevens came East Saturday and sported two nice looking records by crossing a hitherto uncrossed goal line. Centre had to take her first defeat in three years, but she crossed the Harvard line twice Virginia Military Institute smashed through Penn's unbroken trenches so much that Penn lost her first game of the season. Circuit Season Closes With Day of Speed ATLANTA, Ga., Oct. 25.—Tho Grand Circuit season of 1920 came to a close here Saturday with four regular events and a mile trot against time, in which Bogalusa made what was announced us a season’s record for 2-year-olds. The colt turned in 2:06%, which is one and three-fourths secouds lower than his own previous record. Charley Rex of the Murphy stables, which won the free-for-all stake race Wednesday in straight heats, in one of which he made the mile in 2:05%, took the 2:05 class trot Saturday from Dr. i Nick in straight heats, the best time be- I ing 2:06%. Sinaeola. with Russell driving, won the I 2:15 trot in straight heats, while in two ! events for Southern horses, J. U. W„ I entered by W. L.

Wabash Friday in a game that is holding the attention of every high school grid follower, in Indiana. Wabash holds a 30 to 0 win over Manual, so the outcome of this game should supply an Interesting means of comparing the strength of the two local rivals In preparation for their game Nov. 12. A student committee at Tech has been appointed and will confer with Principal Stuart on the question of a celebration following the game with Manual, If Tech wins. The main question under discussion is that of a monster parade immediately after the game in which every TAch student will take part. The large school band, which is one of the best high school bands in this section of the country, will lead the affair and the team will occupy places of honor. There is danger in these celebrations, however, because that is where the fisticuffs usually start. High school celebrations should be confined to the school grounds. Manual followers, although realizing that their team has not established so impressive a record this season as their east side rivals, are not a bit concerned over the outcome of the contest. They are basing their hopes on the mono recent showing of the team, especially the way the Red and White humbled Sheridan.

NOTRE DAME IN NEXTFEATURE Battle With Army Big Game of East Saturday. By JACK VEIOCK. International News Sports Editor. NEW YORK Oct. 25.—The most successful football season since before the war Is well past the midway stage today. So far the season has been n brilliant one, chock full of Interest for devotees of the game. Many really big games have been played, but the time-honored classics are yet to come and with the ringing down of the curtain when the Army and Navy meet Nov. 27, the football public will surely have had its fill. Interseetional games will feature the schedule next Saturday. No less than five games between elevens representing widely separated schools of the country ■will clash on the gridiron. Foremost in Importance this week Is the Army-Notre Dame contest, at West Point. Notre Dame has not been beaten, and has the scalp of Nebraska hanging to her belt. From all Indications this will be a football game In every sense of the word. Three other games of Interseetional complexion will be played In the East. They are: Harvard vs. Virginia, at Boston. Princeton vs. YVest Virginia, at Princeton. Navy vs. Western Reserve, at Annapolis. On past performances the Crimson, the Tigers and the Middles should be able to win these games with comparative ease. The fifth feature game will be played at Ann Arbor, where Michigan will take on Tulaiie University. Aside from the contest at West Point the outstanding games In the East will he staged at Now Haven, where Y’ale meets Colgate and at Philadelphia, where Pennsvlvania meets Penn State. Yale undoubtedly wtil take the measure of unhappy Colgate and it seems that Penn* is In'for a beating at the hands of Penn State. Penna’s showing Saturday against V. M. L indicates that the Red and Blue is a misfit aggregation. EARLY BASKETBALL. Grsencsstle High. Filmore, 7. Burlington, 43; Forest, 14.
