HERRMANN SEES RUTH OUT FOR PART OF YEAR Former Commission Head Forecasts Heavy Penalty When Landis Speaks. NO EXCUSE, HE STATES CINCINNATI, Oct. 25.—That Babe Ruth will be suspended for at least part of next season for his violation of organized baseball rules concerning a world’s series player engaging in a barnstorming tour, was the opinion expressed by August Herrmann, president of the Reds and formerly chairman of the National Baseball commission. “I am positive that Commissioner Landis will not condone ltuth's action to any extent," said Herrmann. "I am sure the Jilayer will be suspended and possibly or ail of next season. It is certain in my mind that he will not start the season with the Yankees, at any rate. •‘Many fans are inclined to support a ball player in any action he may take as against the officials and magnates,” Herrmann went on to say. "I thing it is no more than fair to call attention to the fact that if it were not for organized be, us conducted today no player could begin to earn the large salaries now paid to the stars. 'T understand that Ruth received a salary of $20,000 a year. Such a furore Would be utterly impossible without tin* organized under which baseball is operated. “Ruth has given as an excuse for his action that he had fulfilled his contract with the Yankees and was under no further obligations to his team until next season. “It is true that his contract expired Oct. 2. If he cared to go on a barnstorming tour at that time Instead of taking part in the world series he would have been quite within his right. But be signed she agreement that ne would hot play in an exhibition game after the world series and he has not only defied Commissioner Landis, his own, club owners and manager, but has also violated 0-8 own signed agreement." BABE’S VENTURE BELIEVED FAILURE NEW YORK, Oct. 25.—Babe Ruth, back ta New York, is spending his leisure hugging the radiator in his apartments to ibraw the chill out of his personal vastness. for the barnstorming tour, which got him in bad with Judge K. M. Lan?ts, now seems to have been nipped with frost from the start. Playing to crowds of 1.500 or 2.000 in ftnail towns, with a popular scale of prices, Babe was unable to collect the huge money—he had expected from his tour, and this is believed tv leave had as much influence as any other consideration in causing him to abandon the : baseball circus. Ruth made a nice fortune barnstormi*.. after the 1920 season, but his trouping j began about two weeks earlier In the fall than this year's campaign. Babe is now said to be willing to soologize to Judge Landis for violating oje of the rules of organized ball, but the time of his visit to the baseball commissioner is unknown. Christy Mathewson Gets $30,000 From Benefit Game NEW YORK. Oct. 25.—A check for $30,000 was sent yesterday to Christy Mathewson, who is fighting tuberculosis at Saranac Lake. The money was paid by New Y'ork baseball fans at a benefit game for the ex-Giant pitcher at the Polo Grounds, Sept. SO. Old-time ball players engaged in a five-inning game in the testimonial, but the regular league game was called off because of rain. The committee announced, however, that through subscription, min Insurance and the sale of an tographed baseballs the gross receipts were $30,000. This amount may reaca $40,000 through unredeemed rain checks. Mathewson's gift is more than the entire players’ pool in the world's series of 1905, 'when Matty pitched the Giants to three victories and the championship aver the Athletics. The 1905 players’ pool was $27,434. Yale’s Western Basket Games Include Butler NEW HAVEN. Conn.. Oct. 25 An extensive Western tour features this season's Yale varsity basket ball schedule.

Sutcliffe, w this city, will be one of the stars to be sold at the Old Glory auction in New York City Thanksgiving week. It was a disappointment to Trainer Mart Wilson, as well as to Dr. Sutcliffe, when the bad weather conditions at Lexington iept the colt from taking a record much faster than the one which he received at the Indiana State fair track late in September, for both of them, along with others who knew something of the youngster's capability, felt that 2:05 was Within his range.

' —KJ ■ ■ —. I \. ik

When the crack Wabash College and Butler elevens clash here on Irwin field Friday, south side grid fans will be interested in the performance of the Wabash center, for be it known that the pivot man for the Little Giants this season is one Charlie Logan, a home-bred grid warrior. Charlie is only a freshman, but under the tutelage of Coach I’ete Y’aughan he is picking up rapidly in the finer points of the game and is expected to be a whale of a lineman in another year or two. He is of the lightweight

MAROON SHIFT PLAYS PROVE DOWNFALL OF TIGER DEFENSE

By YVALTF.R ECKEBS.4LL. (In The Chicago Tribune.) In the Intersectional struggle between the Chicago Maroons and Princeton Tigers Saturday Coach Stagg displayed an article of football which will be the talk of the East for the remainder of the gridiron season. His shift plays, which were executed with clock-like precision, will be copied in later coutests, and they will be used by leading elevens of the section next season. The main purpose of shift plays Is to disconcert the defense. Thw ball is intended to ba snapped while players are shifting and In no position to meet an attack with all their strength. Stagg had his offense so planned that the backs hit at different points on nearly every play, and the Tiger forwards were at a loss to fathom this style of nttack. When the piajs were sprung behind unbalanced lines, the runner was frequently sent back on the woak side. He generally slid off the center, who was pushed aside by the offending pivot man with th he'p of the guard on the weak side. The Maroon backs drove with so mii‘-h power that they had little trouble making rround when the defense was not set for the attacks. The battering tactics were s revelation to Eastern critics and other close followers of fuotball Chicago had been expected to play an open game, with the forward pass the principal weapon of attack. In the opening quarters the Maroons

The Woodsman team continues to hit a merry pace, taking three straight from the Fullen Etc last night. The Brunswick Tire squad was surely consistent enough In its last two games.

PHIL BROWN. Here is anolher part of the House of Brown which is such a definite part of the crack Butler football team. Paul Brown, calling signals, Is pretty certain to get his xilay off to a good start through the guard position played by his cousin Phil. Phil, who was captain of the Bulldogs last year, is one of Coach Page's veteran linemen, aud his work this has had a lot to do with the remarkable record hung up by Butler s./ far this season. Heis one of the biggest men on the squad, unusually aggressive and fast for his size. This is his third year as a Butler varsity man. Butler followers are banking strongly on him to care for the heavier Wabash attack Friday. Brown plays either tackle, Center or guard, but has been working almost altogether at guard this year.

In the Butler fray Logtfti will face the experienced Duttenhaver, who has been going at a good pace for the Irvington, eleven and a me.ry scramble is expected to occur between the two youthful middle men. The game Friday is attracting Statewide attention and a record crowd is sure to be on hand. The game will be called at 2 o’clock.

made few attempts to gain by use of the open game, and concentrated on the I’rlnceton forwards. Time after time Tlmine, Thomas and Zorn tore through any part of the Princeton line or slid off the tackles, who were neatly kept out of the play by the superl boxing of Chicago's ends. The strength of the Maroon attack may be gathered from the fact that Chicago made sixteen first downs against three for the Tigers. The scoring forward pass was executed perfectly, and caught I’rinceton completely off guard. A few tosses by Chicago also were incomplete, while Princeton did! not execute a single nne successfully. Middle West football, as played by Conference instituptions—Chicago especlally —has gained in popular fuvor in she East. Previous to Saturday’s game the battle wag looked upon as a practice affair, and was considered a stepping stone in the development of Princeton for the later games with Y'ale and Harvard. It Is true that Lourie and Garrity did not start, but even If they bad. Chicago v. ould have won. Princeton did not have the defense to stop the attack, and even in the second half, when the plavers had a chance to talk over the situation with their coaches, the Maroons gained more ground. It was crowning victory for Chi cago and the West, and showed beyond question of debate tLa t Alonzo Stag.) still is a straiegist, and <an develop won derful football elevens if given material.

In the Star League two bowlers managed to find the head pin often enough for 200 counts. Dorsey of the Printer* got himself a 202 score in hi* last try, while Mcllahon of the Pressmen No. 2 put enough on the bail to add up 209 in bis first game. The Newsboys grabbed off three games from the Stereotypers. The Pressmen No. 1 team, after a good start agaiust the Mailers, suddenly flopped, in their second game and then rose again to the heights. ’The result was two out of three games. In the league with the long name— Motor Sales and Accessories—every match was a three-straight victory affair.

INDIANA ‘CRIPS’ WILL GET INTO IRISH CONTEST Hanny and Donovan to Start Game—Great Scrap Predicted. ROCKNE WORKS SQUAD Spectators at next Saturday's Notre Dame-Indiana game w.il see one of the guuiest lights in the history of the great college game, close followers of the v to teams said today. Indiana's eleven, desperate after defeats at the bands of Harvard and Minnesota, is primed for the kind of a fight that has pulled victories out of the fire for Stlehm's elevens in other years. Hanny, star Crimson end, with his left shoulder In a cast, will enter the game, while Donovan, at the other wing, who ! has been out with a strained tendon, will be started. Indiana supporters have ( feared that neither of these men—and, more especially, Hanny—would bo able j to start the Irish fray. OLD GRIDB TO GATHER FRIDAY. The announcement from Bloomington that Hanny ind Donovan would enter the contest has added new Impetus to the “fighting mood” of the supporters of the Crimson here.

Reports from Notre Dame indicate that , Rockne is “saying nothing but doing j much.” The Irish came through the Nebraska game in good shape and havo started a week of gruelling practice for Indiana. It is no secret that Rockne intends to open up with everything in the Notre Dame bag of tricks early in the contest in order to avoid a possible repetition of the lethargy and lack of offensive strength in tae early periods which came near resulting in an ludlaua victory in 1920. Notre Dame Is out to win by a decisive score, but is not 'etting the overconfidence that caused au iowa victory enter into the question. j TWO PARADES OF STI DENTS. Plans for the reception of the biggest crowd in the history of Indiana football, meanwhile, were being completed It neearne apparent today thut Indianapolis will fate the new experience of trying to see two student parades at the same time.

The Indiana delegation will be headed by the uulvers.ty ! band of 100 pieces auJ the Notre Dame ! procession wfll be similarly equipped. Local Indiana aluinut will march with the students. Indianapolis will put on gala attire to welcome the visitors who will flock to the city for the game from all ports of tha State.

AROUND THE BIG TEN

ILLINOIS URBANA, 111., Oct. 25.—Intensive training to correct the fumbling and bad pussing, which mor. man anything else couuiouted to the defeat of Illinois by YVisconsin, was begun ty Coach Zuppke Monday. The coach gave his squad a lecture on their faults in these lines. Despite two defeats in a row, there Is a let*, rg that the Illinl will have a good fighting chance to worst Michigan Saturday. it is realized that the Wolverines are stronger than they look on paper, and that if Yost can rally his cripples he will have a far more formidable team in the field this week. Most of the mini came out of the Saturday game in good shape. If Hon Peden Is available this week the offense will be greatly helped. lOWA. lOWA CITY, lowa, Oct. 25.—“ Don’t fool yourselves; Minnesota and Indiana are big, fast and strong teams," Coach Jones warned bis lowa squad at practice Monday, following his return from a scouting outing at Minneapolis. He added: “You can’t beat either of those elevens by playing merely the game you put up against Illinois. The Gophers and Hoosiers are good line-bitters and both make fine gains with the forward pass.” Coach Jones intimated without positively, saying so, that ludiana, although defeated, was a shade the better eleven. Monday the Hawkeyes spent their time tackling dummies, breaking through and doing signal work. Locke is back in the line-up. OHIO. COLUMBUS. Ohio. Oct 25.—The Buckeye warriors who went through the fray with Michigan Saturday were given a well earned rest Monday. The men who made the trip but who did not participate in the game were given the equivalent Monday Dlght, when they were sent against the freshmen. The practice was purely offensive, the varsity taking the ball on the freshman twenty five yard line and repeatedly trying to push it across. The freshmen held for about twenty minutes before a play slipped the ball over their goal line. Ohio State players came through the Michigan game in good shape with but few bruises and strains, Huffman., who vm feeling the effectvof a bruised muscle In his left leg Saturday, will make use of the two weeks’ rest before the Chicago game to get that member back into shape. PURDUE. LAFAYETTE, Ind. Oct. 25—Scrimmage with the second eleven was the urogram for the Purduo football team Monday and Coach Dietz gave the work of his pupils close inspection. Whatever

2601

plays the Boilermakers have had on tap thus far this season .’ill have to #iffScc for the lowa game, as the coach has decided not to attempt any new formations. His task is to build up the morale of the team shattered by the Notre Dame result. There was evidence Monday of improved individual work as well as team play. The team should b much stronger tor the lowa game Saturday than It has been at any prior time tins season. MICHIGAN. ANN ARBOR, Mich , Oct. 25.—Notwithstanding that seweral of the regulars were bruised in the Ohio State game Saturday, Coach Y’ost sent his men. through a stiff scrimmage Monday !n preparation for the next conference tilt with Illinois. Kipke, star half back, bruised a nerve in one of his legs, winch wl.l keep him Idle for a few days. Coach Yost corrected the faults which showed up on suturday and expects to spend considerable time in building up a stronger offense for Illinois. In an effort to uncover some more kickers Y'ost had nearly every man booting the ball Monday afternoon. .WISCONSIN. MADISON, Win , Oct. 25.—The Badgers began working Monday to meet Minnesota in the Wisconsin home-coming game. Their display of football last Saturday in the game with Illinois was decidedly poor and disappointing to their followers. Why the Badgers worked so poorly is hard to say, but certainly they did far better in practice during the week, so a stiff schedule this week should put them in shape for their Gophers opponnl. Gibson who was hurt Saturday, probably will be able to play and Nelson s'lil also likely be in shape. MINNESOTA. MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., Oct "25.—Four regulars were on the side lines Monday vvneu the Gophers resumed practice for Saturday's game with YY'isconsin at Madi son. Dr. Williams, who is in active \ charge again, left Brown, Marlneau, I Johnson and Tierney on the side lines In the dummy scrimmage, but all of the players are expected to get into the workout not later than YY'ednesday. The rest' of the squad came through the Indiana game without injury and were at their regular places. No further ehan"<*s in idle-up are planned for the YY’iscon sin game. The work-out Monday was light. Dr. YVilliams gave the regulars seme new plays and then ran the boys ihrt/ugh a signal drill before sending them to the showers. INDIANA.

Mr. A. P. Johnson, Publisher of the News, Grand Rapids, Michigan, in his issue of Oct 13 prints the following: PRODUCTIVE ADVERTISING

There are three “Bewares" In the primer of every editor, reporter and aspirin* newspaper worker. Where they came from we don't know and we know less of what they mean to convey. They are. “Beware of religion; beware of saying anything good about big corporations; beware of mentioning advertisers except when they pay for it." Readers of this newspaper know where ft stands on religion and corporations. We k are for them when they do more good than harm. We oppose them when they oppose human progress and retard human happiness. This is about both a corporation and an advertiser—a big advertiser, the Standard Oil Company. A great change has come over the Standard Oil Company in recent years. It is no longer afraid of its own shadow. It is no longer afraid to teQ who owns it, what its business methods are, what its products are and what it hopes to do. The story b told in friendly and unfriendly papers without fear or favor, embarrassment or compunction to paid advertising space. Os course s newspaper would naturally agree to

r I above editorial is refreshing to those I who are responsible for the policies of the JL Standard Oil Company (Indiana). When in October, 1918, the present management of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) took charge of the business, one of the nrst things it decided was that the public should be given intimate information regarding the Company and its affairs. Those responsible for the management knew that the policies that had animated this organization for many years were policies which benefitted stockholders, employes, and the public, and that these policies could not but meet the approval of the people generally, for they were based on fair dealing, justice and equity. The result of this decision was the authorization of a widespread publicity campaign, which has been carried on for about three years, and the proof of its effectiveness is to be seen not only in the not infrequent mention being made by the newspapers of the country in editorials such as tha one written by Mr. Johnson, quoted above, but in the better understanding on the part of the public of what the Companv is trying to do. The basic principle upon which the business of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is built is to provide the individual, wherever he may live in the 11 states served by this Company, with such products of petroleum as he may need, and to get them to him when he wants them and at a price which is fair dike to the stockholders, the public, and the competitor.
