IEMMIINGTILTS NUV Clillll GRID IUKLEH SUITE Emerson of Gary and Elwood Game Important—Warsaw and Decatur Undefeated. RICHMOND TEAM IS STRONG Tech Has Big Victory Over Sheridan— Manual Ties Centra! of Evansville. By HF.ZE CLARK With only three more weeks remaining in thè football season thè high school championshlp of Indiana stili remains in doubt. There are a number of undefeated teams. Some of thè prep school elevens have played both good and bad football this fall, and this makes thè comparative score route more uncertain than ever as a means of determining thè leading teams. Tn northern Indiana there are some j powerful and speedy elevens. Emerson of Gary has won its games i>y | top-heavy scores. On Nov. 18, Enier- ! son High School wlll play Elwood. I The game is important. Coaeh Phillips’ plucky Elwood team has lost but ; one contest this season. Sheridan ; defeated Elwood in thè first game of j thè year. Since that time Elwood won from ! Technical by a dose score and piled up top heavy scores against Perù and Xoblesville. Technical defeated Sheridan and weakened Sheridan’s hold on State championship honors. Elwood will be handicapped in lts game at Gary if East, star end. does not recover from an injury received tn thè game with Xoblesville. Should Elwood halt Emerson then thè picking of a Champion will be easier. Amene tlie l'ndefeated However. other teams have strong claims to first honors. Warsaw has not been defeated and has one of thè best elevens that ever represented that high school. Decatur in northeastern Indiana, also undefeated. has a powerful heavy team that seems to he in a class by Itself in that part of j thè State. Two games scheduled this week by Indianapolis high sehools arb Importane Coach Kingsolver’s Tech- ; nieal High School team will play j Kirklin at thè Technical athletic fleki Friday. Kirklin has made a good record this year. However, Kirklin ; does not appear as strong as last ! season when that school was one of t.hree to cjaim thè Indiana State high j school football championshlp. Manual Training High School has played both good and bad football th's year. The early season games In whlch Manual was tied by Wabash High School and defeated by a 3 to 0 score by Perù, made thè foìlowers of thè Red and White team believe it was a weak combina tion. Then Manual j showed a complete reversai of form. i It went to Evansville and played Central High School a tie game, thè score being 19 to 19. Manual, since that game, beat Short - ridge ,but Manual did not play as good a game against Shortrldge as it did against Central H. S. On Friday Manual meets Greenfield at Greenfield. Richmond Meets Decatur Richmond appears to he thè strongost of thè eastern Indiana high sehools | and made a good impression on thè i Indianapolis football funs by defeating Shortrldge by a decisive score. However, it must be remembered that Sheridan defeated Richmond by a one-sided score. Richmond has one of its most important games when it plays thè undefeated Decatur eleven at Decatur, Friday, Xov. 17. Cathedral High School and Shortrlde meet Friday, Xov. 24. This game will have much hearing on thè Indianapolis high school championshlp, as Cathedral does not meet Manual and Technical. Shortrldge has an open date this week, resting for its game with Technical, to be played Friday. Xov. 17. Technical and Manual meet Wednesday, Xov. 29. Jasonville has an undefeated team. Jasonville has an open I. e Saturday, Xov. 18. It is just possible that some of thè teams which claim State honors rnight find a worthy opponent in Jasonville. While Cathedral of Indianapolis was able to defeat Wilev High School of Terre Haute, stili thè Wiley team is regarded as dangerous in thè western part of th? State. Hopes to Play Warsaw Central stili has on its schedule games with Wiley at Terre Haute, on Xov. 11: Xew Albany, and also a game with Reitz. thè other Evansville high school. The Central team Is trying to schedule a game with thè unriefeatgg Warsaw eleven for Thanksgiving day. Bicknell High School appeared strong until I;ist week. Bicknell played a 0-to-O game Sept. 30 with Bloomfield and Bloomfield. while defeated by Technical played thè eastend Indianapolis school a dose game. Bicknell played a 12-to-12 tle with Union and Bicknell defeated Petersburg, 40 to 0. Then Bicknell was defeated last week by Pinceton 14 to 0, and it must be remembered that Princeton lost thè v%-?ek befere to Central of Evansville by a 46-to-0 score. Garfield High School of Terre Haute is another team tbat is reported to be strong. It begins to look as if thè high school State championship in 1922 must again be decided in thè unsatisfactory way of comparlng scores and as a resilit at least tour teams will be elaimlng thè honor three weeks from thè present time. DE MOLAY BASKET-BALL The De Molay basket-ball teams want practice games with fives that play in all classes. The De Molay organizatlon Is building up teams in every class. Regular games will not be booked until thè first or December. Teams desiring games should cali Art Link. Drexel 1656. Regular games •tartlng in December are preferred vrtti other De Molay chuptexs.
of Undefeated Indiana H. S. Teams Have Good Claim on Ti tle
ARMY TACKLE GUS FARWICK One of thè reasons why thè Army was able to hold Yale to a 7 to 7 tie was Gus Farwick. His fine werk in thè line was a feature of thè West < Folnters" play. Farwick plays a tackle or guard | cqually well. For a big man he is : very fast. Last year he subbed in thè line for Captain Greene. This year he has proved an excellent running mate for Captain Breidster. He will play igainst Xotre Dame Saturday. CftDETS PEP 0? FOR OTRE DIE By Time* Special WEST POI XT. X. Y„ Xov. B.—Enthusiasm is running high here as thè | time for thè annuiti Notre Dame fray approaches. The Army's chances to defeat thè Irish are thought to be excellent this year. The oificers and cadets were all out | to practice Tue*day, watching thè ; eleven go through its work-out. Mulljgan, a big tackle, Is showing wonderful form and is expected to cause thè Xotre Dame bueks plenty of trouble if they try to go through his sector of thè line. KOKOMO SHIFTS SQUAD BEFORE SHERIDAN GAME By Time* Special .... KOKOMO, Ind., Xov. 8. —Coach C. 1 A. Sumner today made a shift in thè back field of thè Kokomo American I Legion team in an effort to get more ! drive on offense before Kokomo meets Sheridan at this city Sunday, Xov. 12. Glenn, who has beep playing quarter, mav start at end for Kokomo. Eli Fenters, former Pine Village star, played quarter back against thè Congerville Flyers of Muncie last week in thè final half and he won a home in this city. With Fenters at quarter, Cardwell, Buckholtz and King or Meyers in thè back field. thè legior. team shpuld prove strong on offense. Sheri<Tin is a city famous for its' strong football teams. and thè Koko- j mo-Sheridan game Sunday is expected jto be one of thè best of thè season j here.

PENDI STATE RND PITI RIVE TIE FUSSTOSETTLE Rivai Grid Machines of Keystone State Played Scoreless Games in '2O and ’2l. CLASH 0N TURKEY DA, Teams This Fall Slightly Below Standard, but Old Fighting Spirit Remains. By \VESTBHOOK VEGLER, United Scic Siati Correspondcnt NEW YORK, Xov. B.—Flip a mental forward pass beyond thè Yale-Harvard-Princetcn amenities of thè next three weeks and legarci thè scene at Cinder City, Pa., when Penn State plays Pittsburgh with a two year scoreless tie to frac-ture. There n no such tension anywhere in thè “Big Three” combination this year, but there was a somewhat similiar fix between Princeton and Harvard last year, when thè Vigere’ victory sprung thè hasps on a tie situation which had lasted two seasons. For all their Classic. rivalry and thè elegant accent in The sceme arrangement at Cambridge, Xew Haven and Princeton there is no greater glory for a “Big Three” winner than thè glory that Penn State and Pittsburgh will tight for on thè Panthers’ field Thanksgiving day. Kivals Have Sagged Slightl} The bouts will be no less bercely waged because of thè faet that Penn State isn’t as great this season as she was when Glenn Ivillinger, Uglitner and Snell were sport-page supermen. Ivillinger is coaching now, having turned down an offerto play with a r rofc-ssional football team. He may vet come back to fame as a metnber of some big league ball club, for thè Yankees own him and prizj him highly. But if State has sagged somewhat, neither is Pittsburgh as strong as formerly. so thè match seems evrn. Penn State was not defeated in 1920, but thè best thè unepoiled working lads of State College could do with Pittsburgh was a double-blank tle. The great Penn Stato team of 1921, which tied Harvard and beat both Navy and Georgia lech and a!so beat thè University of Washington at Seattle in a post-season game, likewlse failed to score against Pop Warner’s team. Dow ned by Navy But now l’enn State, by tumbling before thè Navy last Friday. ha t-oiled one of thè proudest record of thè gridiron That was State s fhst defeat in nlmo3t three seasons. Pittsburgh had thè distinction of hammering out viotorles over Lafayette and Wash.-JefT. in 1920. but lost to both of them last year. A few waks ago a tumide by one of Pitt's back field men resulted In a touchrlown for Lafayette and a 7 tc 0 defiat for thè Panthers. Wash.-JefT. will try to eonquer thè Stogies Saturday a week and Pitt will be in there to intermpt Greasy Neale's record, vìiich now extends to eighteen game* without defeat. Judging by last Saturday’ game in which Pitt defeated Genova. 62 to 0, Pitt hasn't heard of thè forward pass and is stili playing 1900 football. However, Geneva Isn't up to much. Naturali}-, Pitt will have to use all ber tricks as well as her brawn against Penn State. That two vear tic should fall one way or anotlvr on Thanksgiving day.

It will talee that many for thè return trip home. BREITENSTRACTER was knocked out of thè ring and almost into thè ’.ap of Georges Carpentier. Georges prcbably was in a mood to offer first nand consolations with thè memory of thè Siki tight stili with him. But just who Is this Yankee pugilist, Sainson Koemer? WHO said thè 1922 Indiana didn’t nossess big league talenti The Chicago Cuba have “drafted” Trainer Windy Lotshaw. Windy was a long time arriving in thè majors, but he's there. The upset tever has spread to thè race tracks. Sally’s Alley was beaten by Martingale at Binilico Tuesday. BAXGTAILS were scheduled to start running at Evansville today. Kentucky will supervlse thè races for Indiana’s entertainment. OLD-TIME baseball fans of Indianapolis recali thè feats of Sani Thompson, who died at thè age of 62 in Detroit Tuesday. Thompson hailed from Danville, Ind.. and he was a mighty batsman in thè early days of thè game. It was Thotnpson’s baseball fame that put Danville on thè sport map.
RUTGERSBEATS LOUISIII SITE By Time* Special NEW YORK, Nov. B.—Rutgers had very little trouble -with Louisiana State University football team Tuesday afternoon at thè Polo Ground, winning easily by a 25 to 0 score. The game was played in a drizzi of rain with fng hanging heavy over thè field. The Southerners were unable to hold thè heavy Eastern foe. With Rutgers subs playing Louis!ana held In thè first quarter, but toward thè end of thè second period, Coach Sanford rushed regulars lnto thè fray and they plowed through for thè first score. Rutgers seored three additlonal tohchdowns in thè last half. Line plunges accounted for thè first of thè trio which went over in thè thlrd period. In thè closing session a long forward pass led to a score and later an eighty-flve-yard run by Maloney carrled thè ball over again. Maloney was thè big star for Rutgers, while Helm at Hbck for thè losers was thè outstandìng player. Numerous penaltles were lmposed on both teams.
ANOTHER SCANDAL By Time* Special COLUMBUS, S. t\, Xov. S.— Alex Walt, captala and tackle on thè South Carolina football team, reslgned Tuesday with thè statement that he could not back Coach Sol Metzger and his asslstants in thè treatment of members of tlie eleven. At thè sanie time of Waite’s resignatlon it was announeed that Erie Snipes, full back nn thè team, had been put off thè squad for failure to obey orders.
LIST OF BIG TEN GRID CHAMP TEAMS SINCE ’95 THERE is one football fan In Indianapolis who not only enjoya seeing thè game played, but also keeps records on many games. This man is N. C. Allison, and for some months he has been busy writing letters and receivìng answers that make it possible to g ve a list of thè Big Ten Conference football chainpions ever since thè big universities of thè Central West organized under thè name of thè “Big Nine,” and later were called thè “Big Ten,” when Ohio State was taken into thè Conference. The list follows: YEAR AND CHAMPIONS 1895 —Michigan. 1908 —Chicago. 1896—Wisconsin and Chicago. - v 1909 Minnesota. . 1910 —Minnesota and Illinois. 189 1 Wisconsin. 1911-Minnesota. 1898—Michigan. 1912—Wisconsin. 1899—Chicago. 1913—Chicago. 1900 —lowa and Minnesota. 1914—Illinois. 1901—Michigan and Wisconsin. 1915 —Illinois and Minnesota. 1902—Michigan. 1916 —Ohio State. 1903—Michigan and Minnesota. 1917 —Ohio State. 1904 —Michigan and Minnesota. 1918—Year of war. 1905 —Chicago. 1919—Illinois. 1906 —Minnesota. 1920—Ohio State. 1907 —Chicago. 1921—Iowa. In 1918, thè war year, competition was not coVsidered as for a championship. Some contesta were played, however. Illinois and Michigan were not defeated. Purdue played only one Conference game and defeated Chicago, 7 to 3. Indiana -liti not meet a Big Ten opponent that season.
WAR TAKES BROTHERS OF SIRI OF SENEGAL
By BATTLING SIKI As Told to MILTON BRONNER, NEA Staff Correspondent. CHAPTER HI When thè war broke out, I felt It up to me to do ray duty. I jolned thè Eighth Colonlals at Toulouse. It was a regiment maitily made up of w'hite men. There were only a few colored men. I perhaps was thè only Senegalese. My family did its duty. My four brothers also served and three were kllled. I was in all thè big early c-ampaigns. I got my only serious wound .in thè battles round thè Somme In thè summer of 1916. Bomb fragments went through both legs In thè middle of thè calf. From thè hospital, I went to Toulon for training and wound up as a ccrporal in thè Seventy-Third regiment of heavy artillery. l’sed <'rondi in War 1 was thè Champion band grenade thrower of our corps while with thè Colonials. I could throw them sev enty-flve meters. I stooped and used what thè sport lag writers now cali my jungle crouch, went that way some distarne teward thè German line, then let them have thè grenades. For some of that I got thè Croix-de-Guerre and Militar}- Medal. But French servire wasn't all tightIrg and danger. There was an Eng 1-sh corps near ours in thè Somme dis trict. Those English ahvays Davo sport when they ilo not work at war. One day I got Jeave. went over to thè English and asked to box one of their men. They got up a contest ar.d we had a mcrry go. Then they asked me to stay to lunch. Ivirns His “C’akes” Those Tommies said lt was as funny Ito see me eat as flght. They stuffed my pocket with things to eat, so when I returned to my own linee, my ! comrades said I had grown fat, flghtlng thè English. But ine, I say: “Mais non, mes corria rade —it is (he English, they have given good things to eat See, we will have a picnic." It was fun, I teli you, and I learned a lot. Those English hoxers were not stylish, but they could take a lot of punching nnd glve a lot of lt. I learned how to stand up to hard blows.

And from those British I learned another thing. They didn’t get mad. They box for fun. They try to win, but they try fairly. When it’s all over they are friends with you, win or lose. They don’t rernember you busted them in thè eye and keep on being mad. So, now aster a flght is over, I don’t keep on being mad. either. I am sorry for thè fellow I have beaten.

BUTLERRESERVE TALENTGROONIED Page Hopes De Pauw Won’t Be So Hard He Can’t Rest Regulars. LOOKS T 0 LAST GAMES Coach Page of Butler has been worried because of thè strenuous schedule which thè team will have to meet in thè next three weeks. He realizes that one eleven can not play thè three hard games called for successively unless thè men can be relieved. This Saturday Butler meets De Pauw; Nov. 18, Notre Dame, and Nov. 25, Bethany College at Wheeling, W. Va. Recent days have been devoted to dìscovering tlie best reserve material on thè squad. The team has been practicing late into thè evening by powerful searchlights and are lights strung around thè field. As a result of thè work Page said today that he felt satisfled thè reserve material would be strong enough to represent Butler In thè first team line-up when called. Page is planning to use about twenty men in t.he De Pauw game. The coach is not underrating th Greencastle team, but a thought must be taken for thè future games. The reserves that have shown well are Northam at half back in place of Griggs or Woods, and Harry Hungate, who has developed Into a hard hitting full back. Cecil and Hensel aro considered some of thè most aggressive line men on thè Butler squad. The ends can be well handled by Strickland, Ble.ssing and Paul if thè regulars, Konold and Lesile, find lt necessary to rest up for thè final battles. Play Tie Off Sunday. The Grapplers and Tuxedo Club wlll play at Woodside Park Sunday afternoon at 2:30 o’clock. These two grid teams played a tie game last Sunday and have decided to play it off. A good game is in store for thè public and a large crowd is expected to attend.
