Three game sweeps were the rule .a l-jc Capitol No. 1 League when every uiatcn of the evening except one resulted in straight victories. Many games won on narrow margins. The closest game of the night was won by the Capitol alley five, which had five pins advantage over the Recreation quintette when the totals were added In the second game. E. W. Steinhart team rolled 989 in the first shot at the sticks for the high onegame score. Kramer’s 214, Haislup’s 219 uud Horuberger’s 204 helped swell the total. A 974 In the third game by the same team was the next best effort. There was lota of good bowling, but Broucher of the Sterling Oolitic stepped out and got himself a 243 In his last game. King of the Recreation five rolled 228. The three-man team Essential League was full of pepper. Sullivan with 220 and Skelton with 224 were high single game guns of the evening. The Engineers and Commercials in the Bell Telephone League ran neck and neck but the Engineers were luckier and grabbed every game. Luichinger was a good anchor for the winners. The Accounting team rolled two of th* best games of the night s card when they turned in 844 and 854 in the last two contests against the Auditors who did all their shooting In the first grme with a 810. Cady with 209 and Ball with 201 were the 200 bowlers In the Belle League. Johnson of the Fletcher Savings and Trust w<nt big in the Bankers' League and mashed the pins to the tune of 242 in his first whack at the maples. After that he was through.

Old Grads of N. D . and Indiana Storm City Next Saturday Crimson and Irish Clash Sure to Attract Former Students in Droves. Old grads of Notre Dame and Indiana Universities by the thousands will make their annual pilgrimage to Indlamipolls a week from today, when the football teams of these two Hoosier schools clash In what has become known as "The Hoosier Gridiron Classic.” With the Wabasb-Butler game coming the afternoon before, the Capital City will experience a week-end devoted almost exclusively to the great college game. Notre Dame will send 1,500 students and Indiana followers will occupy three special trains. Banquets, pep sessions, "fight-fasts” and parades are on the program for the night before the gome. Indiana students and alumni will march in a monster procession through the downtown streets on the morning of the game and a similar turn-out Is planned by Notre Dame. Indications point to the largest crowd In the history of the annual contests. There was a heavy sale Thursday when the tickets were first offered to Indianapolis fans. Advance dope on the relative strength of the elevens indicates that they ara evenly matched. Notre Dame fought a brilliant battle against lowa, only to lose by three points, but has shown steady Improvement since. The showing .of Coach Rockne's men against Purdue is not regarded seriously by those who follow the game closely, and it is intimnted that the presence of the entire Indiana team and coaching staff In the stands may have had some effect on the Notre Dame play. Color is lent to this opinion by the fact that Kockne confined his attack entirely to old-style football Indiana lost to Harvard by a 10 to 0 score, but no alibi is offered by the Crimson for what is generally considered a creditable showing against a powerful rival. Indiana's attack has been considerably strengthened since the team's return from the East. Missing the services of Its veterans of 1920, Notre Dame Is said to be slightly less powerful than last year, while Indiana has not lost heavily through graduation. The Irish won out in the fourth quarter, 13 to 10 in the 1920 game, after the Crimson had led 10 to 0 for three quarters. Viewed from almost any angle therefore, this year’s contest promises to be even harder fought than that of last yeor and anybody’s game until the final whistle.

Crippled Franklin Team Defeated by Wilmington, 20-7 FRANKLIN, Ind., Oct. 22.—The crippled Franklin team could not hold the Wilmington (Ohio) team here yesterday afternoon and the visitors departed with a victory ly a 20 to 7 score. Frauklln presented a patched-up team and was outplayed, except In the first quarter, wheu Captain Strohl ran ninety yards for a touchdown, after receiving a kickoff. It was the one bright spot In the contest from the local standpoint. The Gold and Blue pluy was ragged throughout the contest, while Wilmington seemed to Improve as the gams progressed. The first WilmbigU>i touchdawn came in the first period as the result of a recovered fumble. Quarter Back Sapp carried the ball In sensational style for the gains that pushed over the marker. Another touchdown was made in the second quarter, Nowald carrying the ball over. The first half ended 14 to 7. The Baptists braced in the second half, but Wilmington scored again in the last quarter, White failed to kick goal and the final score was 20 to 7.

a s the Bones were golug good also. Culbertson and Hanni of the Heart* were the only pin topplers to gather more than 200 maples. There was not a team of Elks good enough to grab throe games. When competition Is that streng, interesting bowling 1* always the result. The Ribs, Livers and Tongues, after taking the first two games, could not get up enough steam to put across the third. The lead-off men of the Prospect Gas League were the big guns and showed the Anchor men how to do it. Hlle of the Ammonias rolled 224 In his first effort for the high score of the night Mackinnon of the Office was second best with an even 200. Nothing sensational developed In the Legion League. Huckleberry of George Dewey post hit the pins for 197 in the only game he bowled. In the Nordyke & Marmon League the Gear Department five was much too speedy for the Office and took three games. Every game was better than any other score of the evening. The Rocker Arms took the Back Hangers Into camp three times and the Connecting Rods managed to squeeze out three victories over the Tool Makers. Stevenson of the Sedans In the Lafay®tt* League took all the honors with a 212 in his first game and 204 in his second. Nobody else could knock ’em down consistently. The L. E. & W. circuit showed some splendid bowling. The Car Service team roiled three games over 800 to beat the Engineers, who could not get up quite enough steam. Fiahen of the Car Service squad got 285 in his first attempt. It was easily the high score for the night. Traffic trimmed the Auditors three contests, but the totals were close. Close ones don't count, though. The General Managers managed the Freight Claim five out of three games. Ferguson and Thomas were steady as clocks for the Managers. The four team C. M. B, loop showed nothing startling. Jacobs of No. 3 team wag high with 179 pina in his last game.
