SCARLET AND TIGER ELEVEN b SMOOTH PLAYS—HARVARD- YALE CONTEST STIRS THE EAST
RIVALS BATTLE FOR ODD GAME IN LOCAL FRAY De Pauw and Wabash Stand Even in Grid Victories of Yearly Meetings. TIGER OFFENSE BRACES GREBNCASTLE. Ind.. Not. IT.— So fat •a Do Pauw grldsters are concerned, Indiana football fana will have the opportunity of seeing the best game of the Tig*.' -Wabash series at Washington Park, Indianapolis, next Saturday. At that time, a football rivalry extending over a period of more than fifty years. In which each school has won an equal number of games, will be fought out. Capt. Ted Ogden of De Panw and Captain Tommy Thompson of Wabash will lead their teams on the field Saturday to decide the year's supremacy and to win the honor of being victor In the odd game of the long period of rivalry. Coarh B\ias Is perfecting a faet-work-lng assault which will be hard for Wabash to stop. On the other band, Pete Vaughan, Wabash mentor, has drilled hie men all year on the principles of defense. With Ted Ogden fighting for all-Btate laurels at center and with the famous “Galloping" Galloway as Tiger quarter back, Wabash followers will have sufficient reason to fear the outcome of the annual tilt. Football is the talk of the De Pauw campus just now. Eren the coeds ar% flowing unusual interest In the coming contest. In order that the girls might better judge the merits of the contest Saturday, prof. W. W. Sweet of the De Pauw faculty, who Is a former football star, explained some of the technical points of the game to the women of the university at a special mass meeting held recently. Student tickets, for the game were placed on sale at the university today along with tickets for the special lnternrban cars which will carry the fans to Indianapolis Saturday.

WABASH REGULAR ON SICK LIST CRAWFORDSVILLE. Ind., Nov. 17. The Wabash College squad is further handicapped in its final preparations for the De Pauw game at Indianapolis Saturday by the illness of Cox, end. The big fellow was not in uniform Tuesday evening and -some fear is felt regarding his condition. Otherwise, the Scarlet squad is in fair shape and Couch Vaughan is hurrying the practice in order to build up both offense and defense. Reports from Greencastle Indicating the Tigers are not expecting Wabash to show much on the attack, is causing the Scarlet backers to smile, because whi,e building up a stiff resistance. Coach Vaughan has not overlooked his offenee. and if the De Pauwites are expecting none, it is the belief here that the chances of a Wabash victory gain * point right there. That De Pauw has been made the favorite by the dope artists in Indianapolis Is another thing that is not causing the Wabash boys to show any signs of fright. Local rooters point to the results of the De Puuw-Purdue and the Wabash-I’urdue games as a basis for their firm belief in Scarlet scoring powers, ar.d thev arc going to roll Into Indianapolis Saturday morning feeling plenty boastful. The Wabash rooters will go over for the game In lnterurban specials, and they mean to stage a lively i arade before the game. A pep session will be held here Friday night, at which time the rooters will get their final tuning up.
Around the Big Ten OHIO STATE. COLUMBUS—The first snowfall of th* year spread a six-inch blanket over Ohio field and drove Conch Wile* and his Buckeyes into the gymnasium for practice. It was rather a stiff scrimmage, the men working on offense and defense against the second team for two hours, alter which the team went outdoors on Ohio field for a half hour signal drill in the snow. Preparing a defense for the Illinois forward pass has taken up much time, while the Buckeye plan of attack has le*l them to practice the pass almost constantly. A few changes in line-up may be necessitated Saturday by Wllce's plan of defense, but just what these changes will is hard to predict. Stitichcomb was the 01 l.r member of the Ohio team to see lllit ols pla v Saturday and his report of tin strength of the Illinois team haa taken way all overconfidence. WISCONSIN. MADISON—AII of Wisconsin’s regulars came through the Illinois game without mishap and will he able to play In the game with Chicago Saturday. MINNESOTA.

YALE BACKERS SEE HOPE FOR STIFF BATTLE Old Eli Has Possibilities, Even Though Harvai’d Is Big Favorite. 80.000 TO SEE GAME By JACK VEIOCK, International News Sports Editor. NEW YORK, Nov. 17.—Harvard!* big football eleven, powerful though It is, may find a surprls'.nglv unruly bulldog In Yale's bowl Saturday. This was the opinion of a good many critics today as the coaches of the rival teams sent their proteges through what may he their last grilling work-outs at Cambridge and New Ilaveu. Yale's decisive defeat at the hands of Frinceton was a hard blow to the Jilu*. yet there is no reason to believe that the spirit of the Ell* is broken or ti nt Coach'Tad Jon— and l.i* assistants will be unable to weld together the good material they have at hand and make ->ut of Yale a belter team than that which faced the Tiger. LESSON’S LEARNED IN TIGER GAME. In anticipation of her big battle with Harvard It Is possible that Yale can forget for the time the sting of Frincetou’s victory and profit from the lesgoi* learned on New Jersey soil. The generalship of the Ells was demoralized by the Tigers' tidal sweep and cleverly haudled parting assault lu the early stages of last week's game. But It will be more difficult to sweep the Bulldogs off their feet by this method next Saturday. And it must not be for gotten that Yale has been pointed all along for the Harvard game, rather than the one with Frinceton. Harvard's strength is not to tie discounted In the slightest degree. The Crimson will enter Saturday's game a favorite to win, but whether or not Coach Bob Fisher's proteges can defeat Yale as decisively us did Frinceton Is a debatable question. Rnd not a few students of the game consider It doubtful. Bob Fisher has a machine that com bines relentless power with consistent football of the well known Harvard variety. The ability of the Crimsou shown In the last quarter against the Tiger* b-. led some folk to believe that Harvard lias been in “hiding all along,” yet this is not the universal opinion If she has been. Yale la in for an unpleasant ttras. But don’t forget that Yale will fight harder and piay better football next Saturday. HARVARD HAS MANY STARS. Harvard's outstanding players ere Buell and Fitzgerald, her quarter backs; IMptain Ilorween and Owen, her plunging backs; Havemeyer, Tolbert, woods and Sedgwick, her stellar linesmen, not to mention Churchill. The Blue is not without capable performers, however. Kldo Kempton. Frank Kelly and Mock Aldrich will bear close watching by the Crimson. Kelly In particular. The Elis also have Into, Acosta and Callahan and quite a string of other sturdy linesmen. They have Thorne Murphy, quarterback. too, and whether Murphy or Ketnpton plays the pivotal position Yale Is expected to exhibit something In the way of passing that has not yet been uncovered. Os course. Yale will have to tak the ball away from the Crimson, a thing which Harvard has consistently demonstrated Is a man's size job. The critics who expect Yale to show better against the Crimson may be ail wrong. It may be a rout. But from this distance it appears thsre is a chance that the monster crowd of some 80,000 football fans may see a struggle replete with the kind of football that atlrs the blood In one’s veins, even though Harvard looks the winner from almost every angle.
Landis’ Baseball Platform CHICAGO, Nov. 17.——" Achievement- words," will bo the platform of Federal Judge K. M. Landis, baseball's newest ruler. IjijidU discussing plans of baseball's tuturs. said Chicago was to be the Mecca for baseball pilgrims.
