STATE COLLEGE BATTLE TO BE KEENLY FOUGHT Home-Comers Sure to See Furious Affair Between Indiana and Purdue. GRADS ASSIST STIEHM BLOOMINGTON, Jnd., Not. 16.—Traditional football rivals will meet next Saturday afternoon when Purdue faces Indiana at Bloomington for the annual contest between the two Stato university elevens. Players and supporters of both schools always look forward to the game as the most important of the season and count on a battle from start to finish. Indiana alumni will make it the occasion of their annual home-coming, and at least 1,500 students and followers from Purdue will Journey down from Lafayette for the game. Accommodations have been made for a crowd of 7,000 fans. Indiana seems to have a slight edge on Purdue, but the Boilermakers have shown improvement in every game they have plaved since the beginning of the season. The up-Srate eleven always plays Us best gam* of the year against Indiana, and will try to make up this year for two successive defeats at the hands o. Jumbo Stiehm's warriors. Football rivalry has been carried on between Purdtf'e and Indiana since 1593, and at times has become so intense between the students that athletic relations have been discontinued long enough to let the feeling die out. Purdue leads In the number of victories by a margin of two games, having won ten. Indiarfa has won eight games and tied two. One thing the Stato University followers point to with pride is the fact that Purdue has never beaten Jumbo Stiehm's eleven. In the three games since the former Nebraska mentor came to Indiana in 1916, his team has beaten Purdue twice and tied them once, incidentally giving them the worst drubbing they ever received at the hands of an Indiana team, In 1917, score 37 to 0. A number of Indiana’s former athletes returned this week to assist Stiebm in coaching his men. All the alumni ask In the way of remuneration is to see Purdue get a good whipping. This will be the first Purdue game at Bloomington since 1917 and preparations are being made for the greatest home-coming 1 celebration in the history of Indiana University. The home-coming activities will open Friday evening before the game with a recital on the university chimes and a band concert at 0:30 p. m. A banquet In the men’s gymnasium for grads, dads and friends, I*3oo strong, and a reception for 1.000 women in the Student building will feature the Friday evening program. The students will assemble early on the morning of the game and meet the Purdue special on Its arrival at 10:30, after which there will be parades, speeches and yells by the opposing contingents. Saturday night, the annual reception and dance in honor of the Cream and Crimson warriors in the men’s gymnasium will close the home-coming festivities.

SCARLET CUTS LOOSE AS BIG BATTLE NEARS Wabash Squad Reaches Form Sought by Vaughan for Game Here Saturday. BUSY DAYS AT DE PAUW CRAWFORDSVILLE, Ind., Nov. 16. Head Coach Vaughan sent his Wabash Little Giants through it furious scrimmage Tuesday and now- it is thought the work the remainder of the week will ho of a lighter brand. The big coach believes his squad is just about ready for the big test at Indianapolis Saturday when the locals tackle De Pauw. Os course there are a few rough spots to bo ironed out, but on the whole the team is ready lor anything if it can function iu the manner Coach Vaughan has taught. . , The Wabash mentor means to give much attention to putting his reserves through the paces fn the few remaining practices before Saturday. It is more than likely that the game will develop into such a fierce affair that subs are almost sture to get into the fray, anil Vaughan wants his second string men ready. Information from Greencastlo indicates that Coach Walker has his entire squad in better form than ’’bear stories would lead outsiders to believe, and that he will not be kicking for capable substitutes no matter how furious the going may be. Three of the Wabash regular substitutes are out of it. and as Walker is well aware of this it- is believed hero that he is preparing his De Pauw warriors to set a furious pace in an effort to "pull the corks” of the Scarlet starting regulars. Captaiu Ogden is wellknown for his endurance qualities and if he is given the word to set the pace high !\iid keep it high Wabash knows ho can just about do it and nut tire to any great extent himself. However, no matter what kind of style De Pauw chooses to use the Scarlet machine is confident it can twist tiie Tiger’s j tail. The Wabash students are wildly t enthusiastic and the townspeople are dis- j playing n similar brand of "pep.” Many tickets for the game are being sold here and Indianapolis citizens are sure to bo made aware of the presence of the Scarlet rooters Saturday. HANG OUT THE MOON AT DE PAUW GREENOASTLE, Ind., Nov. 16. Darkness did not halt the practice of the De Pauw football sq'uad Tuesday In Its preparation for the annual Wabash clash at 1 ndianauolls Saturday. Coach Walker led Ills meu oil McKeen field at-3 o'clock Tuesday afternoon, and it was 7:15 o'clock when, the first man went through the gate on his way back to the gymnasium. For once moonlight proved itself useful for other than romantic scenes. Had it not been for the brilliant tnooh the practice would have had to stop earlier. Hard scrimmage followed by a signal drill composed the activities o's the evening. Throughout the remainder of the week hard Practice daily behind barred gates | will lie the lot of the Tiger grldstcrs. I Although this is the last week of prae- j tlce In the lie Pauw gridiron season it j will no doubt be the hardest, for unless : De Pauw defeats Wabash nt Indianapolis Saturday afternoon the Tiger 1921 root- i ball seaso- will he considered a failure by the majority of tho student body and , Old Gold supporters. Interest is growing higher here every ' day with the daily yell fasts being held In chapel. Plans have been completed ( for special “pep’* sessions to lie held in ! Meharry Hall tonight and I'riduy ! evening. At the latter conclave Coach Walker and the entire De Pauw footbull squad will occupy senta of honor. Tickets for the game are selling rapidly here. Five hundred student tickets j already have been purchased. As usual, j many townspeople will make the trip ' with the students.

Their first game of 928 was high for the night and tho three-game total turned in was also the best effort u * the loop. Link Belt showed well In the first two games against the Bells and scores of | 902 and 886 were good enough to discon- | noct the Telephones from first place. In j the last effort, the Belts slipped and the Bell crew took Its lone game of the Tuesdi4i__sessiou. W. J. nollldny fivo and Ballard top- j piers took three straight from Armours j and Lafayette teams respectively. Nor- j dvke & Marmon, ufter a poor start, took | the last two games from the Premier j Motors.

Dollar Sign May Get Into Amateur Stronghold, Tennis Rumors Current That Promoters Seek to Use Stars as Barnstormers. NEW YORK, Nov. 16.—Red lights are showing upon the lawr tennis track. The danger-ahead signal is set because of the amazing sums of money taken in at the gate in the tournaments the past season. At Philadelphia the classic Allcomers drew a gate of approximately .$120,000 gross. For the challenge matches for the Davis cup between the Japs and the American defenders at Forest Hills, it is said that about $70,0J0 was received. These great slims have aroused the interest of the professional promoter. The dollar sign appears likely to have its turn upon the courts in one of two w-ays: There will be stiff battles between the clubs to secure the plums in the way of remunerative tournaments or star players will become attached to a group of traveling performers who will compete for a price instead of a prize. According to reliable authority, William T. Tiltlen recently admitted that he had been approached with an offer to display his skill for cash. Aside from the ndmisslon that the project had been seriously made to him, Tllden was averse to discussing the subject. It is reported that one or two others have similarly been sounded out along the same lines as evidence that plans for a tout have been pretty well mapped* by those who, believe they see money in the venture. Cubs and Sox Take on Talent for Trials CHICAGO, Nov. 10. —Three new players recently have been added to the roster of the Chicago Cubs.

Cue Wizard Hoppe Opens Rivals' Eyes in Starting Match Willie Disposes of Conti, Running 175 to Come From Behind. CHICAGO, Nov. 16.—Willie noppe, wizard of the billiard cue, missed his first shot at the opening of his match with Roger Conti in the championship 18.2 balk line billiard tourney here last night. Conti picked up his stick and ran 150 points before he missed. Hoppe spawned, slipped his cue between his fingers and proceeded to chalk up a run of 175. Conti followed with a flank. Hoppe shot 46, Conti kicked in with 30 and Hoppe came back wiMi 142. The final count was: Hoppe, 400; Conti, 188 (five innings).

There were few indications today that Hoppe would lose his title. Jake Schaefer played wonderful billiards in his match with George Sutton, winning 400 to 260 in seven innings. Ora Morningstar downed Eduoard Uoremans, the Belgian shark, by a score of 400 to 171. Schaefer vas to meet Conti and Hoppe was to play Sutton this afternoon.
