Rose Poly Moves to New Quarters and Gridiron Is Big as All Outdoors
1922 TEAM LOOKS FAST AND HAS OLD STARS AND NEW ONES IN FOLD Open Season Saturday, Sept. 30, With Eastern Illinois State Normal Eleven at Charleston, lll.—John J. ‘ Millen Is Coach. By HEZE CLARK TERRE HAUTE, Ind., Sept. 29. —There is one football team in Indiana that has almost unlimited space in which to practice. That team is Rose Poly. There are 133 acres in the new Rose Poly campus, located about three miles east of Terre Haute. So far there is no fence around the athletic field at Rose Poly and Coach John M. Millen is holding practice on the campus in front of the new building which now is housing every department of the school, including offices, shops, laboratories, classrooms and gymnasium. The building is 400 feet long and 150 feet wide and is not yet completed, although parts of it are in use. The Terre Haute school, since ■
.moving to its new site, is expected to develop into one of the largest engineering schools in the country. The campus, with its wonderful forest trees, rolling ground and small lake, is without question as beautiful as i any in the country. Eventually the | athletic field will he built north of the main building, where a hillside will furnish a natural wall for a stadium and concrete bleachers. One advantage of the new campus ! 13 the football men will not have to practice and play the game while the gridiron is covered with great clouds of black coal smoke from trains and switch engines, as was in the old days when the Engineers' school was located near the railroad yards Millen Pushing Men Coach Millen. former assistant coach at Indiana Univers.ty, is not sparing his players, for on Saturday, Stpt. 30, Rose Poly opens its season, meeting Eastern Illinois State Normal at Charleston. These two teams have met on the gridiron almost every season for more than twenty-five years. Rose Poly has the lightest team this season that ever represented the Terre Haute school. However, the Engineers can move. The Engineers have plenty of “pep” and their scrimmage practice was good for the style of play was open and was replete with forward passes and long runs. Rose Poly is fortunate this year in ; having two men who are exceptional open field runners and who will prove dangerous to any team on the Engi- j neers’ schedule. These two men are Henry Miller, who played with the Louisville, Ky., Manual Training High School, and ‘•Hank” McComb, former star on the Wiley High School in Terre Haute. These two boys are j Coach Miller's pair of aces this sea-: son. Miller is the boy who last year was awarded the Yale medal for being the best student and the best all-around athlete in the Louisville high schools. Just what he can do in other branches of athletics is not known, but there was one evident fact and that is he can play football. From the time he seized the ball on a long kick ofT at the start of scrimmage and raced to the middle of the field before being downed, until he scored the final touchdown of the scrimmage. Miller was the star. He can pass the ball, and is a wonderful open field runner. Miller is without question one of the best backfieid men who ever played at Rose Poly, and the followers of the Engineers are not forgetting such stars of other years as Carter, Bradford, Bachman and Hofman. “Hank" McComb worked well with Miller and this combination is sure to cause Hoosier college defensive players plenty of trouble. McComb, one at the lightest back field men in the State, is a streak and if he gets loose he is gone. Jack McDargh, center, is back this year and fits in well in the style of play. Other line men who won their letlers at Rose Poly last year and who are back are Herman Heck, guard, •nd Buford Tyler and John Morehead. tackles. Walter Boyd and Robert Wolf, end men of last season's team, give the coach two fine forward pass handlers. Regulars Back In the back field Rose Poly has in addition to the two Freshmen stars a number of last year’s regulars. Dave Campbell, half back; Sam Forsyth, quarter back; Max Skeeters, half back, and Paul Dorsey, half back. Dorsey is a powerful line bucker. The Rose Poly second team of last Vear also furnished this season’s squad with possible varsity material. Sam 'Smith, quarter back; Lester Glenn, juard; Franklin Bogardus and Shuts” Lentz, ends, are all football •<ien of a caliber who may make the first team. Lee Pickel, former Wiley high school athlete and last year's star full back o*i the Rose Poly team, is out because of an injury received in practice, but hi will be back in the regular line-up b-fore the season is far gone. Just the same Rose Poly has some new players who will crowd some of the last year stars off of the varsity. Bob (Doc) Hall, tackle, a former Wiley high school man. is one of these. Paul Mayrose, half back, Terre Haute Garfield high school, has an educated toe and can boot the long punts. Foster Schiltz. an Olney. 111., high school athlete, should make good at tackle and could be used at center. Hunter of Brazil high school is a good back field man. Edison White, tackle, a former Wiley high school star, will probably land a line position at Rose. Pinyan, a Memphis (Tenn.) -iiiilete, is after a half back position. Carl Schroeder, another Garfield High School athlete, is a half who has a good chance to make the varsity. Evinger, a former Wiley High School pl.'.yer, is being worked at both guard U\d tackle. Coach M.llen has a problem in comMeting his schedule. He has two open Sates. Nov. 18 and 25. The latter aas the date for the Rose-Indiana State Normal game, but the Teachers will not have a team this year. The Rose Poly schedule, as far as completed, follows: Sept. 30, Eastern Illinois State Normal at Charleston, 111.; Oct. 7. Hanover at Tefre Haute; Oct. 14 Earlham at Terre Haute: Oct. 21, University of Dayton at Terre Haute; Oct. 27. Franklin at Franklin: Nov. 4. Butler at Indianapolis; Nov. 11, Uidveralty of Louisville at Terre

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
Playing the Field With Eddie Ash THE YANKEES could use that fellow "Two Gun" Collins who let them down with four hits Thursday and prevented them putting the clincher on the American League pennant for the time being. “Two Gun" came home to roost. He formerly wore a New York un.form. A crowd of 6,000 turned out in chilly Boston to see the | Yankees put the final nail In the i bunting, but Collins had more than the Yanks were looking for and he ; outpitched Joe Bush, Huggins’ ace. Bush was terribly peeved at Collins' ! performance and struck him out four j times, but it happened that Coll.ns was there to p.tch and not to bat. His mates did sufficient stick work to win the game, 3 to 1. Babe Ruth didn't get a single safety. Some of Babe’s friends fear he is going into a slump as the world’s series approaches. BROWNS and Yankees each have three games left. If the Yanks lose all and the Browns win all, the race , will close 1 na tie. That situation is J improbable, but funnier things have | happened. M dwest fans are hoping ! for one of those funny things. If the | Browns lose one. they're out; if the Yanks win one, they're in. INDIANS got knocked off Thursday j in the series wind-up with the chain I pion Saints, the Kelleyites winning j out in the tenth. 7 to 6. The score | was tied three times. Tribe errors played a largo part in the Saint vlc- | eery. The Indians Just will get nerj vous when playing the champions | Krueger got his second home run in I two days in the fourth inning and he busted the pellet for the circuit when the bases were jammed. Bruno j Haas, the Tnrzan of the Saints, had j a big day with four hits. The Indii ans moved over to Minneapolis today ! to open the closing series of the season. Whitted’s Hens downed the Blues again and scrambled out of tiie last place, Columbus going hack in. The Brewer* finally braced and trimmed the Senators. STRANGE things happen. Rom mel, famous Athletic hurler, got knocked out in the first inning by Washington Thursday. So many nice tilings have been said of Rommel that perhaps ho is cracking under the strain of too much boosting. WOMEN golfers are going to it at White Sulphur Springs, Va. One nice thing about being a star ama tour golfer is the pleasure one gets in taking in all the prominent sum tiler and winter resorts. Franklin will move up to Indianapolis Saturday and Irvington j is going to see some excitement, ft' the well-known “touch of autumn” is not in the air, Butler and Franklin rooters will put it i there.

He’s got the pep, he’s got the dash and knows how to carry the ball in the open. In practice he has been booting the pigskin forty-five yards consistently. Watch him go this season. Tech was to open the season today against Elwood at the Tech field.
RIVALRY BUTTLE IS GRID FEATURE HT IBM FIELD Butler and Franklin Tangle in Annual Contest —HardFought Tilt Expected. A great contest is expected Saturday when Butler meets Franklin at Irwin Field at 2:30. The Franklin eleven is reported strong and the rivalry existing between the two teams always makes their annual batle one of the grid features of the season. The Butler coach feels that the squad as a whole is in fair condition, although Paul Brown is still out of the game. Dutch Hensel has been out but he will probably play in the Franklin tilt. "Fuz” Hungate is rapidly rounding into shape. Dick Strickland has been shifted from full back to end and shows up well In that position. All Butler men will occupy a section by themselves in the stands. Pat Page said, “I am a firm believer in co-education, but in athletics Just as Irmly believe in segregation.”

STATE CONTESTS OF INTEREST TO CRIDHjLLOWERS Season Gets Real Start With Number of Preliminary Football Tilts. The college grid season gets a real start in Indiana Saturday with a number of preliminary contests Which offer their main Interest because of the first appearance of the various elevens. Franklin at Butler is tha only feature contest. All eyes will be turned toward I South Bend to see just how much of a team coach Rockne has developed with his left-overs and green material. The Irish play Kalamazoo College. Hanover travels to Wabash in a game that should not be very hard for Coach Vaughan’s outfit. The Scarlet eleven, with the exception of the loss of Milstead, the giant tackle, and a couple of ends, is just about ir.tact from last season and is ex- < pected to be a strong organization. James Millikin furnishes the opposition at De Pauw and the followers of the Methodists are waiting anxiously to give the new coach's hopefuls the "once-over.” Millikin is usually a hard nut to crack and De Pauw j may have its hands full. Rose Poly goes over to Charleston, 111., to tackle Eastern Illinois Normal. Broad Ripple Baseball The Broad Ripple baseball players are asked to be at Watts’ drug store Saturday at 1:15 p. m., as the team leaves for Carmel at that time. The Ripple club plays the K. L. A. team ; at Broad Ripple Sunday.
