Fans on Edge for De Pauw-Butler

RIVALS IN FINE SHAPE AND CLOSE FRAYISFORECAST Tigers and Bulldogs All Set for Bitter Struggle Here Saturday, Neither De Panw nor Butler can fall back on that old alibi “not in condition” whn the two elevens meet at Irwin field Saturday at 2 p. m. Both elevens have had two weeks to get into shape and both have made the effort to be in the best physical condition possible for the- fray. Coaches Ashmore and Page eased up on the men last week and about three days of intensive work this week have set the players on edge. The practice was light Thursday and was still lighter today in both camps. Signal drill occupied most of the time this afternoon. Splendid weather is promised for the game and Irwin field is expected to be jammed again. There is a feeling in the air that the Methodists have an even chance of victory and grid followers are expecting to see one of the most sensational local battles of the year. Greencastle will send a big crowd of townspeople and students. A big celebration was held this morning during the chapel period at De Pauw. It is almost certain both coaches will have something up their sleeves. With two weeks to prepare each will no doubt try to surprise the opposition with something new in the line of attack. Anyway one looks at the struggle there is plenty of interest attached. PARALYSIS HITS GRIDDER Holmberg of Minnesota Out for Remainder of lf?3 Season. By United Press MINNEAPOLIS.

PRINCETON FAVORITE TO WIN OVER HARVARD TEAM 60,000 Expected in Palmer Stadium Saturday to See First Clash Between ‘Big Three' Foes. By HENRY FARRELL - TiesH Sports Editor - ..i.W L’xO:\, N. Nov. 0. —I T r<red on by the student body’s insistence that they can’t lose and spurred by the admonition of the president that they must not lose, the Princeton Tigers were choking with confidence today as they put in the last work for Saturday’s game with Harvard.

In a huge rally Thursday night, when the undergraduates built fires and whooped and hollered all over th’e place. President Hibben told the players, “Princeton has not suffered a defeat at the hands of Harvard since the war and this year must be no exception.” -s. “Harvard Is Worse” With the feeling—“we may not be so good, but Harvard is worse,” the and the old grads insisted that a Princeton victory was in the cards and that the Tigers always play their cards. Unusual interest prevails in the first battle of the “Big Three" here Saturday. Overwhelmed by Notre Dame and tied by the Navy, Princeton likes to feel itself in the same position of 1019 and 1920, when the Tigers stumped In mid-season and came back to finish in a blaze of glory. Added to the interest which always makes the “big three” games a sea ture, a lull in Saturday’s schedule makes the battle the biggest game of the East and one of the most important of the day. 60,000 Spectators Sixty thousand spectators are..sure to be in the Palmer stadium whea the opening whistle blow's because there are seats for sixty thousand and not a single ticket remains.

IRISH WORK WITH SNAP AND CREATE FEARW LINCOLN Huskers Hope to Smash Rockne Defense by Taking Advantage of Weight, By United Press LINCOLN, Neb., Nov. 9.—Notre Dame’s flying grid squadron arrived here today and took a brisk, short worTfout In Comhusker stadium. The team from South Bend, Ind., practiced with a snap that discredited any stories of staleness on the Micks’ part. Work for the Nebraska eleven was tapered off to the minimum and they used the field but a few minutes to limber up today. Early indications are that the two line-ups will give Nebraska a weight edge of six pounds to the man on the lire and ten pounds to the man in the back field. The Comhusker attack has been speeded up In practice this week, reports from the secret sessions indicated. Coach Dawson has spent the most of his time getting the heavy-t weight linemen to crash into theiiJ opponents with speed. v Notre Dame is rankling under the* sting of defeat in their game here last year and make no secret of their desire to win by an overwhelming score Saturday. Nebraska, admittedly weaker than last season, ha3 made only a mediocre showing so far this season, but is expected to take a decided brace against the Irishmen. What little betting that is going the rounds gives the Notre Dame team a twenty-point margin to win. Armistice day celebration for Lincoln will be held in connection with the game that is the premier grid attraction for the Missouri Valley for this year.
