Indiana Warriors Battle in Mud for ‘Rubber 9 Game With Gophers
FEELING OF CONFIDENCE IN BLOOMINGTON OVER OUTCOME OF BIG FRAY Biggest Coaching Staff In History of University Sends Large Crowd of Candidates Through Paces —Only Big Ten Game Here. By HEZE CLARK BLOOMINGTON, Ind., Oct. 12.—Rain or shine, dry field or mud, Indiana will fight when Coach Pat Herron’s gridders meet Coach Bill Spaulding’s Minnesota giants at Washington Park, Indianapolis, Saturday. This was evident from the way the Indiana team went through their practice yesterday. The field was soft, and the ball was slippery, but there was little fumbling. There is a feeling of confidence here in Bloomington that Indiana will win from Minnesota. The football fans have little to say about the De Pauw game which ended in a scoreless tie, except that De Pauw has a good team and that Indiana will be far stronger when Herron’s men meet Minnesota.
Be that as It may the fact remains that the Indiana-Jlinnesota game is the only Big Ten Conference contest scheduled to be played in Indianapolis, and what the Indianapolis fans want to know is what kind of a team will represent the State of Indiana against the invaders. There were fifty-six members of the varsity squad in suit yesterday. On the hill near the gymnasium where the new stadium will be erected a iarge freshman squad worked out. It .s said that the freshman team is the best ever in the history of Indiana. The only scrimmage held on Jordan field was between varsity squad iinemen and it lasted about twenty minutes. No chance was given to judge the power of the back field attack, as the backs did not scrimmage. Plenty of Coaches v If numbers count for anything Inliana certainly should be well coached. There are more football coaches at Bloomington than ever in the history >f the university. Pat Herron of Pittsburgh University is head coach; Shifty” Bolen, former Ohio State ;>layer, is line coach; Leslie Mann, who coached football at Rice Insti lute, Texas, and played outfield with he St. Louis Cardinals, is coach of he back field men, while Frank Muray of Princeton University is teach ng the gridders the art of punting md drop-kicking. These four varsity -quad coaches do not have to worry dbout the freshmen, for there are hree coaches directing the first-year men. They are Tom Whalen, former ■ ieorgetown and Dartmouth player, bead coach of the freshman squad; Kenneth Brqwer, former Indiana University player, who has been a prominent figure as a coach at various colleges and who coached Shot fridge High School in 1903 and 1904, who is coaching the line men. and Pat Donivan, former Indiana man, who is coaching ends and backs. In spite of the fact that there are seven coaches at Indiana, more than vn hour of the two and a half hours af practice time was given to teachng rudiments of the grid game to varsity squad men. many of whom will not even have a chance against Minnesota. The men worked hard and seemed o h ive plenty of fight in the brief erimmage practice. The varsity, the •leven men whom it is believed will :art the game against Minnesota, . -ent through more than an hour of gnal drill. At times they stepped trough the plays liks clockwork, but jmetimes the play was ragged. Planning Defense There was no drilling on defense, lowever, it is evident that Coach ' erron is carefully planning a de- * nse to halt the powerful Minnesota ■ tack. The strategy board met in erron's office an hour before pract ce started yesterday, and the maps < ’ the Minnesota plays brought back y the scouts who saw Bill Spauid- • ig’s team in action last Saturday .ere given the once over. A defense as planned for every play and the iinnesota plays were taught to the eshxr.en so they can try them out on :e varsity. Never before has there been better ■ firit among the players. Never has student body been more solidly back ■ ; a team than this year. This is sure . count Saturday, for it -will put the ght in the Indiana men and will keep hem fighting until the last whistle t Washington Park. There is one big thing in favor of : ndiana in its Minnesota game. This i the fact that there are eleven “I” ten on the varsity squad and these xperienced players are sure to steady he new varsity men in big games. It squires a large percentage of veteran ootball players to hold a team steady nd keep the old fight all through the ixty minutes of play. No matter now good anew man happens to be m experienced veteran who has been mder fire in the attack, counts and •ounts big. This fact, the eleven “I” men, gives Indiana a chance to fight Minnesota on even terms. "I” Men.
The eleven “I” men at Indiana are Frank Hanny, captain, end and back field man Elmer Wilkins, quarter; Gene Thomas, half back: Robert Raymond, half back; Cloyd France, tackle; Jess Lohrei. center; Frank Cox, guard; Emmonds Clay, guard; “Baldy” Goodman, center; Elder Eberhart, end, and Ed Harris, full back. In addition to these there is Jerald Landis, quarter back. All of these men except Goodman and Landis were used in the De Pauw game. It was interesting to watch the play of some of last year’s freshmen who are playing their first season on the varsity. Some of these men are fast and have the reputation of having plenty of fight. Stewart Butler, former Wabash High School star, has always played center, but he was shifted to guard this year. Butler is a real football player. Joe Sloate of Akron, Ohio, and ’Red’’ Moo maw of Bluffton. Ind., both half backs, are real varsity material and may get their chance to play against Minnesota, Scott Fisher of Medora, Ind., a •juard, and Walter Wlchterman of Hagerstown, Ind., an end, seem to be mre of getting into the varsity line-up. Wlchterman is a fast wing man. ’Bud” Tripp of North Vernon, full >ack, is another good man from last •■ear's freshmen. Sam Niness of ironwood, Mich., a tackle, played against De Pauw and he appears to be a good lineman. Coach Herron has in Irvin Springer, former Evansville high school athlete, a tack'A who will be able to hold his
Playing the Field With Eddie Ash IT’S pretty tough on a sick man to offer him a contract to manage : the Yankees one more season. Miller Huggins is advised to demand a strong-arm squad to assist him. The Cubs grabbed the lead Wednesday in the Chicago city snowball series, two games to one. Red Faber took a beating. His spitbail looked like a frozen apple when it got up to the plate. THE pugilistic championship of St. Paul will be decided Friday night—decided in New York. Billy Miska and Tom Gibbons are business boxers. They settle their differences where there is plenty of people. "UNDER new management,” If football teams were like business houses that is the way Indiana and Minnesota would advertise their grid game Saturday. Both elevens have new coaches. Minneapolis reports say Coach Spaulding has built the Gopher team from the ground up and also from the. neck up. That’s putting it strong for college talk. REB RUSSELL has signed with the Pirates for 1923. If salary cutting talk starts in the majors this winter Reb will have it on the boys. LANDIS eased out nicely of the difficulty which arose over Yankee ball players taking passage to Japan on a foreign ship. He said the players ari ranged their trip months ago. A CROWD of 5.000 rooters gave the lowa eleven a send-off on its departure for Yale. Win or lose, the same 5,000 will be at the station when the team 1 returns. College spirit is sincere spirit. Windy Lotshaw, Indianapolis club trainer, has br 4 iched out into new fields. He is now the massage expert of a crack Chicago pro grid team. Windy is right at home now, he's working in the Windy city. THE STEIN handicap was the day's feature at the Hawthorne race track, Chicago, Wednesday. The ; stein business still must be good in i Chicago. ' own against any of the Minnesota giant linemen. Two Capital Boys Indianapolis football fans will have a chance to see at least two former Indianapolis athletes in action against Minnesota Saturday. Frar' ox, the j big blond-haired giant, la ai ex-Man- ; ual Training High School athlete. Temple Smith formerly attended Shortridge High School, but did not j get to play' there, as he had played four years on an eastern high school, j Smith was a quarter during much of the signal drill yesterday. He is ; small, but wonderfully fast. He j shoots the forward passes in accurate j style and he calls his signals with a : snap that shows him to be a real football man. Captain Ilanny was ! shifted from end to full back yeeterday. His toe is sure to prove a big j factor In the game Saturday. He booted the old ball fifty and sixty yards time and again. Hanny is a j star, no matter where he is. The shift will improve Indiana's attack and give the team a chance to score. I Other men on the varsity squad who showed up well in practice were Earl Knot, end; "Irish” Lorden, end; Dick Woodward, end; Hardin, half back; Victor Helm, guard, and Vern (Ickes. tackle. Two of Indiana's wrestling team are playing football. Harold Mumby, heavyweight champion, is trying for ■ guard, and Lawrence Michenor, an Indianapolis athlete, is also after a line position. No person in Bloomington knows any better than Coach Herron that he has a big problem to solve in meetj ing Minnesota so early in the season and in the hard schedule mapped out for the Indiana team. The schedule follows: Oct. 14, Minnesota at Washington Park, Indianapolis; Oct. 21, Wisconsin at Madison; Oct. 2S, Michigan Aggies at Bloomington; Nov. 4, ; Notre Dame at Notre Dame; Nov. 11, West Virginia at Bloomington and Nov. 25, Purdue at Lafayette.

PLENTY OF 'IFS' IN YAIF-n GRMESATORDAY Old Man Dope Hesitant About Predicting Outcome After World Series Flivver. By JACKSON V. SCHOLZ United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Oct. 12.—01d man dope has not yet convalesced sufficiently from his recent degrading experience at the Polo Grounds to express himself with much force or authority on the coming football battle between lowa and Yale. Having utilized so much first class information in the world series in such an amateurish manner the old chap quite naturally hesitates to raise his voice above a moderate whisper in the present Instance, even though one of the greatest Intersectional games of the season is about to be pulled off under his very nose. There seems to be so much in favor of eacn eleven and so many points not in favor of each eleven, that the law of averages asserts Itself and clamors for a tie game. If all the sad tales o bumps and bruises, seeping out from the vicinity of the Yale bowl, are well founded, then heaven help Yale, and if the Hawkeye delegation Is as Irresistible as their followers claim, then heaven help Yale, anyway. But, on the other hand. If, IF the lowans are badly weakened by the loss of their four last year stars and recent sickness of Heldt, their powerful center, and If they are suffering the further disadvantage of too few practice games under their belt, then things look brighter for the bull dogs.

When Bill Spaulding trots his Minnesota giants out on the field at Washington Park Saturday to do battle with the Indiana team, football followers will "remy miss” back to the days when Bill was one of the greatest backs at Wabash College. Spaulding played there in 1903-4 5-6 and his name means football at that little college. Spaulding was a big factor in earning the title of "Little Giants” during hla years at Crawfordsville. At the close of the 1906 season Bill played end on an all-western combination of grid stars that played the Massillon Tigers of Massillon.

BASEBALL PLA YERS FLOCK TO NEW DIAMOND UNION ORGANIZED FOR THEIR AID Organization Will Be Called ‘The Association of Professional Baseball Players of the United States. By United Hews NEW YORK, Oct. 12.—Before the ball players, particularly major leaguers, sign their contracts for 1923, anew players’ union, now being organized, is likely to make an open fight for representation on the advisory council of the game, of which Judge Landis is the executive head. The new union movement, directed by Ray Cannon, a Milwaukee lawyer, who defended some of the accused White Sox players, is gathering recruits to its ranks and is reported to be drawing many new members from the National League teams. It is understood that the organization will be known as the Association of Professional Baseball Players of the United States.

Dutch Reuther, pitcher for the Brooklyn National League team, who had a very successful season but said he was asked to stand for a reduction in salary nevertheless, is said to have been active in signing members of the team for the union. Zack Wheat, Tommy Griffith, Otto Miller and Ray Schmandt are among those who are said to have followed Reuther’s lead. The Giants also are said to be enrolled to a man and other clubs whose members have joined are the Pirates, Reds, Cardinals, and Braves. Some of the Cubs and Phillies are understood to have “come in.” Neither Ban B. Johnson, president of the American League nor John A. Heydler president of the National League has commented on the union except that Heydler admitted having heard about it. John J. McGraw, manager of the Giants apparently regards the organization tolerantly but Charles H. Ebbets, owner of the Brooklyn team, declared that he would hire a team of sandlotters and replace his men if they should band together to hold out for higher salaries or other concessions next spring. The unionization has been proceeding since early last summer. Foremost among the objects of the organization is representation of the player on the advisory council. At present, baseball observers agree, the players are completely at the mercy of the club owners and there is widespread dissatisfaction among the players with the attitude of Judge Landis toward their side of disputes with the magnates.
