SHORTRIDGE YS. MANUAL PUTS CITY ON EDGE 7inal Game of Public H. S. Grid Series Tomorvow Finds Both Elevens Ready. FAST FIELD PROMISED It looks as though another even scrap 3 on the local high scnool card for toaorrow afternoon when Shortridge and lanual meet In me final game of the lty public high school title series at rwin field. Manual will be In good hape for the contest with Summers eady once more to take up his duties in he baekfield and Hanneson in shape, •'rom reports the Red and White team vill outweigh Coach Julius' squad, but he Blue and White is expected to offset he advantage in weight by the speed of heir attack. Escol is the only Short•idge player who is not in condition, ie has not yet recovered from injuries eceived irt the Tech gate The contest tomorrow promises to be he best of the entire series, as the game 'rom present weather conditions will be ilayed on a dry field and the back fields if both elevens will get a chance for the irst time in the intra-city games to show inst how much of an offense they have levetoped as the season has advanced. Riley. Kilgore and Warner of the Xorthdde team are very good in the back ield, but Manual, with Harmeson, Stewirt. Rail and Summers, seems to have a slight edge. Both teams have been working hard for :he coming battle. Julias, at Shortridge. has been holding secret practice In an effort to spring some surprises on the South side aggregation and the Manual coaches have been concentrating on a strong defense that will stop any open play of Shortridge, which is expected to open up with an aerial attack. The Manual line also looks to have a slight advantage over the Blue and White forwards with Cecil and Reichel Showing as much stuff as any two linemen In the clt£. If a punting duel develops, Reichel of Manual and Kilgore of Shortridge will wage a merry war, as both are above the ordinary as prep 'school kickers. Although from comparisons Manual seems to have a hairline edge in the final city scrap the apparent adventage Is offset by the gmoothness of the running gears’ of the eleven of Julius and the dope upsetting fight that the local schools always put up In the city contests. Everybidv hopes that something decisive will happen as all the fans have had enough of this nothing to nothing, no decision scraps.' CATHEORAL MEETS FT. WAYNE HIGH The Cathedra.

SCARLET DRILLS FOR MARQUETTE Wabash to Tackle Heaviest Opponent of Y"ear in Thursday Game. CRAWFORDS VILLE, Ind.. Nov. 22. The Little Giants of Wabash College turned out again today for a swift practice In preparation for the Thanksgiving day clash with Marquette at Wllwaukee. The Scarlet machine came out of the He Pauw scrap In good shape with the exception of Meese, and he hardly will be able to play by Thursday. Os course there was a natural let-up by the players following their decisive triumph over De Pauw and Coach Vaughan is making every effort to get the men back on their old stride before tackling Marquette. _ . The ability of Marquette to hold Notre Dame to a 21 to 7 score makes the situation Thursday look dark for YVabash, for according to Milwaukee reports Marquette believes It has one of Its best teams in years. Coach Ryan has a team that Is said to have outweighed Notre Dame many pounds and If this be true then the Scarlet Is going to face the heaviest eleven It has gone against this fall. Regardless of this, however, the Scarlet machine means to battle hard and without fear of the consequences. Marquette always plays up the u abash game in big style and the Thursday combat is expected to be witnessed by a large crowd.
