TEAMS EAST AND WEST STAGE IMPORTANT FOOTBALL GAMES TODAY

CONTEST HERE - HEADS STATE’S GRID SCHEDULE Indiana-Notre Dame Struggle Tops Interesting Football Card for Day. BUTLER AT ROSE POLY The Washington Park battle between Indiana and Notre Dame, which prooably will decide the collegiate championship of Indiana, was in itself enough to make today's Hoosler football card the moat interesting of the season, but the usual number of other sparkling State games were also scheduled. Butler met Rose Poly at Terre Haute; State Normal and Hanover clashed at Hanover, and Valparaiso entertained Morningside at Valparaiso. Purdue left Indiana to meet Northwestern, a Conference rival, at Evanston, 111., and a host of Purdue fans went along to witness the scrap. The dopesters who do their talking in cash were not saying much in favor of either side when th Notre Dame-Indlana affair was discussed. The Irish athletes year already have one down on the nooks with the country's best and today they were in position to play football as good or better than any they have exhibited this season, but nevertheless the Rockneites expected one of the toughest slices of opposition that had been offered them all season. CRIMSON FIT FOR HARD GAME. Physically. Indiana was as fit to fight as any team sailing nnt of the Bloomington port ever was. And they had a trick to trade for every one Notre Dame placed on the boards. Coaches Rockne and Stiehm have been tireless In their efforts to perfect their respective teams in every way for the great game today, and when the teams went on the field they felt as though their work had been well done. Fans today were particularly Interested In the deeds and doings of one famous George Glpp, half back of the Notre Ilame team and main cog In Rockne's defensive machine. This athlete started the dope fires burning with his brilliant work last year and this, and Is on the path to an All-American position. Today ne was primed for his greatest performance. The Butler-Rose game at Terre Haute was the final I. C. A. 1,, contest of the i season for Eutler and the Christians were determined to win it. thereby clincn- i ing the secondary collegiate championship of the State for the 1920 season. Rose was considered formdiable. but there was little worry In the Butler camp as to the outcome of the scrap. Butler finishes the season with Chicago Y. M. C. A. College at Irwin fiell next Saturday. Coach Scanlon had his Purdue grldders on edge for their game with the Northwestern huskies, which will be followed by a tilt with Indiana at Lafayette next .Saturday. The Boilermakers had a chance to gain new admirers today by defeating Northwestern by a bigger score than did Indiana here two weeks ago. The score of that game was 10 to 7. Scanlon felt certain that hU men could score two touchdowns. Purdue was not going to play harder than necessary today, because the big goal is a victory over Coach “Jumbo” Stiehm's Crimson crew, and lt.wiil not do for them to go into this game with an injury list as excess baggage, because they will have a hard enough time holding their own with n perfectly conditioned squad. Despite the Purdue attitude. nowever. Northwestern was made the favorite todav by norupartisan fans. TEACHERS TAKE ON HANOVER. Hanover was expected to have easy jailing against State Normal today. The Teachers are playing football this year, after an absence of several seasons from tlie gridiron, and are having a hard time Acting started with green talent. Hanojer. however, was prepared for quite a scrap, as the Normality's have not been letting things get by them without having their little say about it. Morningside visited Valparaiso with the Idea of handing Coach Keegan's beefy outfit a neat trimming, but it was believed they would have a hard time carrying out their plans. The Valpo teeni. under Coach Keegan, has r.tood up ati battled hard with the best of them this season, and has yet to make anyfiling but a creditable showing.

Badgers in Finest Shape of Year for M Big Illini Battle MADISON. Wis.. Nov. Iff.—lllinois' nndefesfeil football eleven faced the versatile Wisconsin team here today in the feature game of this afternoon's Big Ten schedule. Illinois' hopes of going into the gnme with Ohio a week hence with her re -ord un smirched by defeat hinges upon the outcome of this battle. Wisconsin supporters were more confident tod*}', with the knowledge that Captain Weston and Tebell. regular ends, would be in the game, having recovered from injuries. The Badger eleven is in better condition than at any time this yea r. Illinois sent the same team Into the field that defeated Chicago a week ago. PURDUE-NORTHWESTERN.

Nov. 13.—N0 title at stake here today but Michigan and Chicago, ancient gridiron rivals, were expected to put up one of the fiercest battles of the season. Chicago entered the game with a crippled line-up, but with a determined defensive eleven. Michigan was weakened by the absence of Jack Dunn, star quarter back. Wins Pimlico Cup in Record Track Time BALTIMORE. Nov. 13.—Willis Sharpe Kilmer’s Exterminator Friday won tho SIO,OOO Pimlico cup at two mile* and a quarter, and in doing so smashed the trick record, getting home a neck in front of Commander J. K. L. Ross’ Boniface in 3:53 clipping twenty seconds from the mark he established In the same ra"e last year.

V ' WERTZ SCORES MANUAL’S WIN Little Half Back Defeats Shortridge With Three Runs for Touchdowns. Thousands of Manual and Shortridge High School alumni, students and Just common football fans crowded their way through the gates of Irwin field yesterday to watch the Red and White athletes of the south side trim the Blue, and White athletes of the north side, 21 to 0. i and to see for themselves that this city soon will be providing more famous play- : ers for the college ranks of Iloosierdom. Real football was displayed by the youngsters of both teams yesterday, and had It not been for “Dutch ’ W ertz, who , is rapidlv taking on the appearance of one of the very best Indianapolis high school plavers of all time, the final whistle probably would have blown with , the teams battling in a 0-to-0 tie. The fighting little half back of the Hed and White team attracted the attention of every spectator of the contest with his brilliant all-around playing, am\ he dynamited the Shortridge hopes for victory with runs o' thirty, fifty and eighty yards to score Manual's touchdowns. Neither side was able to gain a de- : eided advantage in the first half, the initial stanza ending with the bail in Manual's possession on the fifty-yard line. It was near the close of the third period that Wertz was called off tackle, and after bolting through the line, he pulled the prettiest piece of open-field running seen on Irwin field by getting through Shortridge* second line of defense ami scoring from the thirty-yard line. In the fourth period. Shortridge quit trying to puncture the Manual line, which j at times was impregnable, and called ont their aerial forces. Wertz blocked pass after pass, until finally one hit In his aruvs and then he tore off fifty yards , for a touchdown in record time. Shortly after this he got his hands on another I on Manual's twenty-yard line and left everybody far behind him In his eightyyard dash down the field. But Wertz was not the only star in that football game. E. Hnrmison. half back, plugged the Shortridge line for gain upon gain, once getting away for twenty-five yards through the center of i the wall. On defense, there was not an ! athlete on the field who could hold n ' candle to Relchel, Manual's ceater. This boy was through the Shortridge line on every play and It soon grew common to see him hurt the runner for a loss. Clark did considerable punting for Shortridge, but his clever toe work was to no avail. Kilgore, full back, was ! Shortrldge's best ground gainer, ripping through the Red and White line j for a few yards every time they called j on him. The line-up and summary follow: Manual (21). Shortridge t 0(.

Claman Brothers were the "ieaai..„ ladles” in the Capitol No. 1 loop. They all put in their little double century say in the first game and plied up a 1.004 total. \V. Claman came back for his second big field mark In the third game, which was just the necessary thing to defeat the Stelnharta two out, of three. Hornberger of Ferner’s Tigers looked hot in’ the third game with 233 pins on Ms tally. His first two games were not so good. Liebtag hit for 201, 197 and 191 for the Sales Extensions. Not so bad for an old timer like Charles. The Strauss Says and Electric Shop fives put on a 900 total battle and the Electrics won when Harkenrlder nnd Hamilton gave ’em plenty of 200 counts. The Faust kid enjoyed the sensation of going from 149 to 203. Capitol Alley Five used Hackerd's big scores to win three from the Armour plant. Hendrickson, one of Polk's Best, paid 243 for the one game honors of Beam's No. 2 loop. Woodard of the Brunswick Tires cashed in for a 223 in his first game. The Commercial shooters pulled all the feature stuff in the Bell Telephone division. Moore nnd Ball each had a brace of double centuries. The former was high man for one game with 218. Lemon was without competition In the low man race with his three efforts. Ferrell of the National Cities left the rest of the Bankers far iir the rear when he caught on for a 202. The News quintet made in the Printing Crafts gathering when Cummins, Chryat and Shering each knocked out a pair of two hundred scores. Cummins’ 234 was the best of the lot. The Hollenbeck Press gladly and freely gave the News five three victories. Livers lost three to the Thyroids In the Elk No. 2 League, after recruiting the blind man to their ranks. Walker of the Thyroids rolled a 202 for the game honor. Wege was the only other select count man in the league. I Holstmler and Geislcker of the Meters ; put the Citizens Gas Circuit on the map with their big scon's. The former delivered a 245 and the latter a 232. It's a cinch they didn't have any wood to throw away in the Odd Fellow League. It is essential that the Essential loopers get themselves a few additional clubs before long.

J., Nov. 13.—Quiet Nassau town was thronged today with legions of Princeton alumni. Vale followers and football fans gathered here for the annual gridiron battle between \ ale and Princeton. The Tigers were confident that Mike Callahan s squad was going to do something that Princeton hasn't done In twenty years beßt Yale two years In succession and they were offering odds of 3 to 2 on the Jungle Cats. The cenler of attention every place she appeared was Mrs Mary Callahan, mother of the two big captains of the opposing elevens—Captain Tim of Tale and Captain Mike of Princeton. Last year Mrs. Callahan watched the battle of her two big boys from the Yale aide of the field. This year she planned to witness the struggle from the Princeton stands. Rut she would be strictly neutral, she said. Princeton started with the same team that tied Harvard last week. The back field consisted of the brilliant Don Lou rie. the fleet Hank Garrlty. Gilroy and the strong-limbed punter. Joe Scherrer. Yale, still suiTertng from the Injuries that have besieged the Blue all year, was unable to give n definite make-up of the eleven In advance. '• V crowd of close to 5*0.000 seemed sure, as all the scats In the stadium and the reserved stands had been sold. BROWN-HARVARD. CAMBRIDGE. Mass., Nov. 13.—Starting a substitute eleven.
