WITH INDIANA STOCK IMPROVING, GRID FANS SEE NOTRE DAME FACING REAL BATTLE HERE

i S. ROOTERS CONFIDENT OF TEAM’S PUNCH Glimpse of Varsity Convinces Backers Stiehm Has Machine Set to Hold Irish. ENTHUSIASM ABOUNDS BLOOMINGTON, Ind., Not. 11—Spectators at the Notre Dame-Indiana foot ball game at Washington Park, Indianapolis, Saturday, will nee one of the hardest-fought games in the history of Indiana football. This was the Terdict of Indiana students after watching the Crimson in a long practice drill Wednesday afternoon RECORDS OF PAST RECALLED. It was this svstem that won over Purdue, 37 to 0, in 1917. and it was this same climax that caused the Crimson to defeat Syracuse. 12 to 6, here last fall. Members of the squad now know why many plays, on which the Crimson has drilled all season long, have not been used heretofore. They were being held in cold storage for the big game. Notre Dame is it. A victory over Notre Dame would mean a great deal for Indiana. In the first place, it would mean a State championship. and in the second, it would attract the eves of the country to Indiana, because of Notre Dame’s remarkable showing against the Army. There is at least one man on Jordan field in whom lies absolutely no fear of Notre Dame, and that man is Coach “Jumbo” Stiehm. In former days, when Steibm coached Nebraska, and when Notre Dame was sweeping everything before it. Coach Stiehm’s Cornhuskers used to defeat the Irish in some of the bitterest struggles ever enacted on Western strldirons. The Indiana team has absorbed some of this. It does not fear Notre Dam*. It realizes the worth of its foe. however, and has steeled Itself to a high tension, which means a bitter, determined fight all the wav from the first whistle. SriKIT THAT UPSETS DOPE. It Is this same spirit which has caused Indiana to pull remarkable surprises in the past when rivals were rated at two-to-one better. Notre Dame is noted wherever she has played for the determined, methodical, hard game she plays. But the Indiana team of 1920 has nothing to fear in this regard. .. ... . The development of this spirit has been sensed by the Indiana student body. Many students, who attended the Northwestern game at Indianapolis and had planned to make their next journey to Lafayette for the Purdue game Nov. -0, have'altered their plans and will go to Indianapolis In the special trains Saturday morning. The Indiana crowd will be'larger than that sent to the Northwestern game. It is now expected. With the exception of Cloyd France, who is hobbling as a result of an infected leg and who will not be able to get into the Notre Paine fray, the Crimson is in excellent condition for the game. Allen G. Messiok, All-Western guard with ndians in 1910 and 1911, is helping Coach Stibm prepare his linemen. The last work-out of consequence was to be held this afternoon. There will be a short signal drill Friday afternoon. The Crimson will go to Indianapolis >n one of the student special trains Saturday morning. ROCKNE NOT TAKING CHANCES NOTRE DAME, Ind., Nov. 11.—The fact that Saturday's game with Indiana at Indianapolis is going to be no social meeting for the Notre Dame grllsters Is being impressed on the Rockneites. wns a b!t more pep and fightlnjr stuff noticeable In the varsity work yesterday, but Rockne's choice huskies are still failing to check the yearling march and the fighting mentor is working them overtime until they learn their lpsson. roach Rockne, Notre Dame students and the fans of South Bend are not worrying a lot about who will win the game. They are simply admitting that the Irish are going to nitre to show all they know to keep the Crlmson-clads from leaving them In the lurch. The coach Is willing to state that be expects a real battle from “Jumbo” Smith's husky scrappers. One strong point is in Rockne’s favor, that Is that he has no cripples in his gridiron camp. Every member of the squad is doing his bit in the drills and the „aeh will have the opportunity of i starting his strongest line up against the down-staters. Indiana and Notre Dame, always strong rivals, will stage a hntder struggle than they have ever staged in the history of their gridiron competition, if the dope reads right. The game count between them is even this time and both will 9trive hard to get out In front.

Basket-Ball Bee Busy at Butler as Wind-up of Grid Season Nears

With only two more contests remaining on the football card, attention at Butler is being directed toward basketbull anti the students are eagerly looking over the net prospects that are at rage's disposal and trying to figure out just where the Blue and Whlto will place this year in this branch of athletics. candidates for the varsity are working out under Captain Jones and Coach Page. A look at some of the material that is in school this year will convince even the most pessimistic Butler followers that the Blue and White will be represented by one of the best teams in the history of the school. All members of last year's quintet, with the exception of Ik- Woods, are back again and trying out in earnest for their old positions. In addition, Orville Hooker and John Leslie, members of the famous Anderson High School five for the past three years, are on hand and are out to give somebodj a chase for a varsity position. Phil White, a former Newcastle High School goal getter, is attending Butler and is showing up well in the early workouts. Ed Deiderlch, who played on the Pnrdue freshman varsity, is on deck for a Job on the quintet. Wallle Middlesworth. who is regarded as the best floor guard that has been seen at Sbortrldge for a number of years, is also at Butler. Henry Goett of the speedv South Side Turner outfit of last year, "is another candidate that will be a hard man to beat out of a regular job. Coach Page Is giving his football men little rest this week In order that they will be in perfect shape for the Rose Poly game at Terre Haute Saturday, the last I. C. A. L. gßme on the Butler schedule. Following this game, the Blue and White warriors will close the season with Chicago Y. M. C. A. College Nov. 20, at Irwin field. Guard Against Scalpers WEST POINT, N. Y., Nov. H.—Measures to prevent speculation in tickets for the Aimy-Navy football game are being taken by officials at the United States Military Academy, Maj. Philip Hayes announced. In previous years. Major Hayes said, tickets sent to members of the Army Athletic Association had been later offered for sale, but he declared that If Investigation this year disclosed any unauthorized sale, the persons found responsible would be dropped from the association. Want Tie Played Off PRINCETON, Nov. 11.—The Princeton Alumni Weekly has asked that Harvard and Princeton meet on a neutral field, Dec. 4, to play off last Saturday’s tie game. The Yale bowl was suggested as the scene by Donald Herring, former aU-Amerlean star. CITY CUE RESULTS.

-V;( > , ?

Y’OSS, RESERVE GUARD. Knute Rockne will not have to worry much about his Notre Dame guard positions in the big game at Washington Park Saturday afternoon. To start with, Rockne has two of the most brilliant guards In the West In “Hunk” Anderson and Smith, and after theso men In the ranks of class comes Vogs, husky youth, who Is working hard to nose himself in for a regular job. Voss has been substituting for Smith and Anderson all season, but it is hard to tell he is a substitute from watching him work. He is built to perfection for action on the line. lie is almost certain of a chance to perform in the Saturday game with Indiana.

Butler Has Chance to Put Over State Cross-Country Win Interest In the annual State cross-conn-try meet set for Friday at Crawfordsviile is running high at Butler College, for students of the local Institution believe their barriers have a great chance t grab off the honors. Representative teams from practically every college In the State will participate, and If the Butler runners can carry off the prize It will be an achievement that will put the present Page regime even more in the spotlight of Hoosier athletics. By virtue of their unexpected victory over Indiana recently, Butler Is regarded by close followers of the sport to have a great chance to win first nlace Friday and the general opinion is that the big fight for premier honors will rest between Purdue and the local school. Much is expected by Butler followers of Doolittle, who captured first place against Indiana, and Captain Draper, who came In second. These two athletes rank with any in the State and they are certain to place high Friday. The men who probably will start the meet under Butler colors are Doolittle, Draper. Cady, Hill, Brown and Cain. On Nov. 20 Page will send his men to Urbana, 111., where they will be pitted against the best that the Sucker State has to offer.

He whs elected president of the Western Canadian League nine days before the convention opened. The position is his first connection with professional baseball, although he has officiated in Canadian hockey and rugby organizations. While a captain of a Canadian regiment in France he gained experience as an umpire, Major league magnates were noticeably absent about buseball headquarters today. With their aerap temporarily removed from the Jurisdiction of the minor leagues they hustled to Chicago to arrange for the Joint meeting which begins Friday. Buttonholing sessions were the order of the day, as whiskers of deals and trades flit around hotel lobbies. With the overshadowing business in abeyance. managers took their turn in the spotlight and names of players supplanted war phases. A bell boy in tho Baltimore Hotel bribed to page "Mr. Native Son.” brongbt a response from 'V. H. McCarthy, California's pride. Vancouver anfl Buffalo were bidder* for the next convention of the minor leagues. Emil Huhn of Indianapolis, catcher and first baseman of the Milwaukee Club of the American Association, has been sold to the Augusta (Ga.) team of the South Atlantic League, by Otto Borchert, president of the Milwaukee team.

INDIANA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 1920.

Evidently It was only a playground war that the magnates staged. Oh, well, the stove league can’t operate without fuel. At any. rate, the magnates were smart enough to declare a buseball armistice on the eve of real Armistice Day. Any way to get the publicity. The Innocent bystander finally haa come Into his own. The minor leagues played the part of such and gained prestige and power. There could be no buseball war with the Service of Supply unwilling to support either side. Just when the lawyers were getting set for a pro fit able stove league season the magnates cooled off and scheduled a peace session. The peace gathering did not come unexpected, howgver, because it’s hard to imagine those magnates becoming mad enough to stage a costly war. It isn’t a JnrDt the big league game needs; It’s a doctor; but Judge Landis is versatile and probably 1s acapabie of prescribing the proper remedy to straighten the game out. At any rate the Indianapolis club managed to sell Duke Rellley again. He has been sent East and West and now It S South. He's learning much about geography in his declining years. It looks as though George Muehlbach, Kansas City host, provided aucb excellent entertainment that he took all hard feelings out of the belligerent baseball moguls. And then George was aided in quieting the big leaguers by Owner Smith and Manager Heudrlcka of the Hoosier*, who wore their spring training smiles, a sure cure for the blues. Dempsey aud Carpentler have been matched, the articles signed and New York chosen as the likely spot, for the bout. Oh, no, the fighters are not mad yet. They are waiting for some plunger to put np that #500,000 purse. All of which makes an opening for another one of those famous New York “master minds” to engineer that half million iron men out of some one. If Dempsey doesn't remain away from Montreal he'll have bis $300,000 spent before he earns it. t And unless Abe Attell Is placed In the cooler before July 4, next, the public is going to be wary about backing a favorite with long green. A fish la a fish, no matter who is on the other end of the line, and the tarpon that President-elect Harding caught nut couldn't hold, proved It.

A feeding of athletic rivalry and Interest that has been pent up in the hearts of Manual and Sbrtrtdge students and old grads for some thirteen year* will be cut loose tomorrow afternoon, when tho Manual uud Shortrldge football elevens get together on Irwin field Manual and Short ridge have been meeting In track, batket-ball and baseball competition right along, but tbs students and alumni of the Institutions have never besn able t whip up the Interest in these games that they have for tho gridiron battle that will be fought tomorrow. Boms of tbe older alumni are pinbeing to make sure they are not asleep and dreaming a wonderful dream. They can't realise that their gray-haired hopes are coming true. A monster pep session was conducts 1 by the Manual alumni at the South Side school last night ami such a demonsira tloti hits not been displayed there since the days when Manual nod Shortrldc* had two of the beet high sclo.d football combinations gamboling over II --tier gridirons.

As for the athletes themselves, those of both schools are In the best possible physical condition and drilled to tbelr tasks as well as exjoert coaches are capable of drilling.

No much has been heard regarding tile prowess of George Glpp that nuny grid fans would not be surprised to see him leap in the atr and fly over the Washington l’ark gTldIron Saturday. But don’t overlook the playing of Babe 1 leree, Indiana center, who Is anything hut a babe, aud that of Little Willie Coughlin, Notre Dame tackle, who is anything but little.

Ban Johnson’s View

KANSAS CITY, Mo., Nov. 11.— President John eon, of the American League, In commenting on the joint major leugue meeting, issued the following statement: “Tho American League ho* been standing for the principle that a reorganization of baseball should be worked out primarily by a committee composed of representatives from the National League, the American Leagne und the National Association. It seems now such a committee Is to be created to consider and work out a plan for reorganization. “There have been certain points of difference between the two major leagues which thus fax they have not been able to agree upon. It haa now been arranged that an Informal conference of major league club owners shall take place—this conference to l*> limited to clnb owners and to be purely Informal. “The purpose of the conference Is to see If the two major leagues may not. In some way, Don out their points of difference. It Is an attempt to see If there can be found some satisfactory basis on which they can harmonize those differences.” Club Officials Here Urge Bill Against Gambling on Games Advice from Owner Smith and Manager Hendricks, who are attending the baseball meeting In Kansas City, indicate the Hoosier baseball bosses have (lotermlned upon a plan to curb any baseball gambling In games here or elsewhere over the State.
