Indianapolis. Coach Walker and the entire Old Gold xiuad saw Wabash defeat Rose Poly at Orawfordsvllle last Saturday afternoon. 3ut the Scarlet eleven did not have to display any of Its new plays taken from the box of puzzling formations said to aave been tapped last week at Wabash. No doubt they will come to light next Saturday. On returning from Crawfordsville Saturday. the Tigers went through a short conditioning drill followed by a long signal practice. If hard, consistent practice can win the coming tilt, De Pauw men may rest assured of the outcome of the closing fray of the Tiger season, according to Coach Walker's schedule for A few of the men are on the Old Gold hospital list at present in the Tiger football camp, but all of them expect to enter the coming Wabash game. ••Tiny" flirt is suffering from a sprained ankle; Jangro has a Charley horse; Ellis still Umps with an Injured knee and Clrke and Myers are complaining of leg Injuries. . As usual, great interest is already being shown here by students and townspeople in the coming clash. Tickets for the tilt were placed on sale here last Wednesday and have been selling unusually fast. The entire De Pauw student body of 1,250 men and women expects to make the trip and an exceptionally large number of local fans are planning to go also. Accommodations will be provided for the Tiger supporters by a special train on the Pennsylvania line which will leave Greeucastle shortly before noon Saturday. It will arrive in Indianapolis in time for the annual street parade before the game. The l*e Pauw band and drum corps will make the trip and will lead the parade. Mammoth “pep” sessions will be held here during the latter part of the week to show the football men that the student body is back of them. An un- | usual display is expected this year be- I cause the Wabash game will not only be the last fray of the 1921 Tiger gridiron j season, but will also be the last tilt Cap- i tain Ogden and six of the squad will! ever play for De Pauw In football togs. Moffet, Mendenhall and Kepner ex- I pect to finish their academic work here nixt summer. Captain Ogden, Yager, O'Neill and Slufz will be graduated in ■ June. These men are going to put all the ability they have in the coming clash In order that their last game with the Tigers may be pleasantly remembered as a victory over the old rival. WABASH SET FOR FURIOUS STRUGGLE CRAWFORDSVILLE. Ind., Nov. 13. The Little Giants of Wabash are punish- j lng the sod here on Ingalls field these, days getting ready for the annnal clash j with De Pauw at Indianapolis Saturday. Coaches Vanghan and Huffine have; learned that De Pauw is snre to be In top form and the work this week will see the Scarlet pointed for Its bitterest struggle of the season. Students and townspeo- 1 pie are becoming wildly excited as the time for the game draws near and the men of Vaughan will have full support at the big ciash. Johnson and Burns are the only members of the first string incapacitated and.: though their loss handicaps the squad to some extent, other capable warriors are ready to jump in when reserves are needed. Both Johnson and Burns were regulars last season in that 8 to 0 defeat handed the Scarlet, and they are keenly disappointed over being prevented from getting a chance to fight De Pauw this fall. The Wabash confidence is still over par, but the coaches have warned against any over-confidence and the players have taken heed. All the Scarlet warriors ask is an even break on the fortunes of ! the game and they promise to turn the ; Old Gold machine back In crushing fashion. The annual De Pauw-Wabash game* are usually of the “You never can tell" j type and for this reason the Scarlet Is tuildlng for a furious struggle. But the players now wearing the scarlet jerseys . can not help believing that it is a “Wabash year," and they rupan to step out on the Washington Park gridiron Saturday and prove it. Wabash Las the opportunity Saturday of gaining the runner-up championship position la the Hoosier football rating for 1921. The Scarlet has defeated Pur- \ due and if the Boilermakers trim Indiana Saturday and Wabash beats DePauw, then the men of Vaughan will move up to a position second in rating to Notre Dame in this State. It will be quite an achievement for Wabash, and it is needless to say that the Scarlet players are determined to grab the honor.

Last year when injuries or illness kept a player out of the game,the coach did not have players to put In who could play as fast a game of basketball as the regulars. This year It is different. The Dentals have from one to two substitutes for each positions and this will lend strength throughout the entire season. One of last year's regulars is missing at the Dental college. McVaugb, star center, graduated. Three men are after the pivot position and who will prove to be the regular center has not been determined. Witter, last year’s captain and guard, is Rgain leading the Tooth Pullers. The Dental captain is again showing hit wonderful speed and passing over the floor. During the summer vacation McPherson, forward, got his hand tangled with a buzz saw, but the wound has healed and the speedy little forward Is again caging the ball from ail angles on the floor. That the Dentals will have a hard game 1* evident for the Butler Law has a combination of experienced players tbt* season.

TEAMS POINT TOWARD FINAL i GAMES OF YEAR Decisive Contests on Card in All Sections Saturday and Thanksgiving. YALE YS. HARVARD NEW YORK, Nov. 15.—Coaches and players of leading football team* throughout the country settled down today to the serions business of “pointing” for the final games on their schedules. Saturday will mark the close of the season for many of the big teams. Others will be idle Saturday, winding up their seasons on Thanksgiving day. No less than -three big Championships will be decided Saturday. Yale, with a glowing victory over Princeton, a clean slate for the season, and a distinct psychological advantage over Harvard, will tackle the big Crimson eleven at Cambridge this week-end in an effort to annex the Big Three championship. Tad Jones' team should win. This la the consensus of opinion among football experts and everything points toward a Blue victory. But Yale will have no easy time, and it goes without saying that Jones is taking nothing for granted. Harvard always fights hard on its own gridiron and the Crimson will put up the fight of a disappointing season against Yale. In the Big Ten every one of the teams will be in action. lowa and Ohio State, leading the race for the title, will meet Illinois and Northwestern, respectively. Wisconsin, a candidate for the ship, meets Chicago on the Midway. Oufl of this trio of games the Big Ten title for 1921 either will be decided or hopelessly deadlocked. Indiana plays Purdue and Michigan meets Minnesota in the other contests. On the far-away Pacific Coast, California and Stanford, the leading elevens, will come to grips at Palo Aito. California is the favorite to win. Some Eastern teams will be invited to play at Pasadena against the winner of this game on New Year'B day. v ogler Sets New Record in Three-Cushion Meet Lewis Vogler was feeling just right last night in the State three-cushion billiard tourney in progress at Cooler's parlors and ran out his string of fifty points in fifty-one innings of play. It was one of the most spectacular pieces of cue wizardry ever seen here in match play. Vogler set anew record, beating his own mark set last year of fifty billiards in fifty-four innings. By his victory last night over Rubens, Vogler takes the lead in the meet. Two games are on the schedule for today, Black of Anderson meeting Harry Cooler, in the matinee contest, and Sergt. Wildman of Ft. Harrison In th* evening match. Local Golfer Captain of Pennsylvania Team Word comes from Philadelphia that Jack Falk, former Shortridge High School student, has just been elected captain of the University of Pennsylvania golf team, which set some good marks in match play.
