Heavy Hoosier College Football Program—Kid Gleason Resigns Sox Berth

{ASTERN TEAMS ON STATE CARD NEXTSATURDAY Notre Dame-P inceton Game of National Import— Bethany at Irwin Field. Another big Saturday is looming for the Hoosier college elevens with two contests with Eastern teams holding the limelight. Notre Dame is in the center of the stage In its battle with Princeton at Princeton, N. J., while Bethany comes to Indianapolis to meet Butler in the Irvington’s institution’s home-coming day celebration. Wisconsin Is at Indiana University In a Big Ten scrap, while the other Western Conference representative, Purdue, takes on a State rival in Wabash at Lafayette. , Engineers and Tigers Rose Poly tackles the strong De Pauw team at Greencastle in a contest that should be hard fought Louisville U. is at Franklin and Chicago "Y” plays at Valparaiso. The Notre Dame and Princeton Struggle is of national Importance. Rockne’s eleven made such a fine showing against the Army the East has been profuse In its praise of the South Bend team. Although Princeton has not been considered as strong as the Army • there is a vague feeling the spring of the Tiger will be harder to subdue than the ponderous power on which the soldiers relied. Football followers look for a terrific combat. Veteran Backs Although the Princeton line is new the backfleld offers a veteran combination. In this respect the two teams are somewhat similar as the same j situation holds true at Notre Dame. Here In the city Bethany comes to i Irwin Field with the reputation of a : powerful eleven made up mostly of 1 veteran players who last year doclsely defeated Butler In the East. Coach Page seems to have his team In top form for the struggle and all of the local fans look for a much more even battle than that of 1922. Wisconsin reigns the favorite over 1 U., but so did Northwestern. The victory last Saturday should have given the Crimson some confidence. Purdue after its splendid showing against lowa is given the edge over Wabash, which has not shown a great deal this year after the loss of several of Its veterans. Franklin's good team should break Into the victory column against liOuisville,
