Johnny Simpson of the Country Club led on the first eighteen Wednesday with a score of 74. Bill Martin and Luke Lincoln turned in 76’s and Billy Reed and William Moore had 77’s.
Eddie Zimmer, the annual State champion and defending city title holder, had a bad day and needed S4 strokes to get around. Unless some of the others fall down miserably today Zimmer seems out of the running. Simpson’s card on Wednesday was as follows: Out 4 4 6 4 3 4 4 4 4—36 In 5 5 33 4 4 5 5 4—35—74 The scores on the first eighteen were consistently low with many turning in cards of eighties. Tad Browr had a 79; Nickel, 81; Tuite, 82; Morrison, 82; Delker, 82; Fred MeNeeley, 82; Olsen, 83. The competition for highest honors among the juniors following leadSchorling Nickel, who got a start with an SI: Moss, who with an 84, and Dorsett, 85. Low net honors for the first day of play went to McLeester and Olsen with 675. The entry for the meet is not exceptionally large, probably due t.) the lateness of the year, but most of the city's best are competing.

COACH GEORGE
Classic Plays of Football
By J. J. RYAN Football Coach University of Wisconsin f j-*- jIAGI weighed only 141 pounds, I Lj I lmt was Italian L I and his mother Irish. If you don’t think that combination spells gameness, you should have seen the play I am about to describe. It certainly stands out as one of the most remarkable I ever have seen In football. I was coaching Marquette at the time and we were playing the heavy Detroit University team In Detroit. That was in 1920. Blagi was pitted against “Tillie" Voss, giant Detroit right tackle, who at the season's end was placed on numerous mythical all-Western and all-American teams, j Biagl wasn’t taking Voss out of \ many plays, but he was sticking to j him like a little fox terrier. At the beginning of the fourth quarter Biagi hollered for help, and, as we had no trainer along, I was allowed to go on to the field. Iliagi was squeezing two fingers together, and I found the nail had been kicked off one. The pain must have been Intense, but the little fellow , never flinched. He merely asked me to bind the two fingers together. A few minutes later he grabbed a forward pass on the twenty-yard line, ducked and dodged three tacklers and dove over the head of the quarter back 1 , who was standiag on the goal line. Beyond the goal line was an embankment. Down this INDIANA CENTRAL GAME Central Normal of Danville at University Heights Friday.

CAPTAIN BUTLER
HE Indiana Central College at University Heights has *- the first football team in its history this season and is doing exceptionally well. Athletic Director George has personal charge of ail teams. The school is enthusiastic over its grid squad since the 22 to 0 deljpat handed Manchester last week. The second home game of the season will be played at Central field here on Friday against Central Normal of Danville. Captain Butler, who started out as a center, has been shifted to full back, where he Is going good.
Biagl rolled and crashed into a concrete post, but he held the ball. That play finished Blagi physically, for the collision with the concrete post had paralyzed one arm. But his spirit was still in the game. The Injury to the little fellow up set Detroit and spurred Ins teammates. A few minutes later they completed another pass for a touchdown. The score really ought to have been credited to Biagi. at a difference a dash of seasoning makes in fiat-tasting food! And what a difference a bit of individual gameness makes In a football team!

NUMBER OF GOOD TEAMS FOUND IN IST BY CRITIC Eastern Sports Writer Discovers Mid-West Conference Is Strong. By HENRY L. FARRELL United Press Correspondent CHICAGO, Oct. 23. —Glancing through the long range glasses adjusted from the World building in New York one gets the idea that here aro In the West only the Big !’en football teams and Notre Dame, Marquette and those called new, vhieh have been nationally advertised recently in the Missouri Valley Conference. But It takes only fifteen minutes in a Western metropolis to gather from the conversation of competent football critics that the mid-West Conference has a classy list of teams that might compare favorably with any teams In the country- if they had the opportunity to show themselves against the “Holy Tlious” of the East. Beloit Stands Out Beloit, champions of the midWest Conference last year, claims the best opportunity by schedule to repeat as the champions this year. Beloit has five conference teams on the schedule, while Cornell College has only four. Among the other colleges In the conference are Carleton, Hamline, Coe, Knox, Itipon and Lawrence and they- have three bonferenco games each. Coe may get no place in the conference, but Coe held the great Wisconsin eleven, one of the powers of the Big Ten, to a tie. Stepping out of bounds the strongest teams in the section among the smaller colleges appear to be Knox. Lombard. Bradley, Wesleyan, Coe, Beloit and Butler. Teams Spread Out Intersections! games are more ; common, this year, and because the i teams are mingling more out of their J own neighborhood, it will mean that J there hardly can b<> a recognized ; champion. Coe's game against Wisconsin and j Lombard's battle with Marquette has ; shown every one in these parts that j small colleges here have teams that J can fight almost on even terms with the powers of the Big Ten and the big leaders of the East.

Butler rooters and players have a hunch a decisive victory is going to be scored over Pete Vaughan’s crew this time. Page has given the gridders a number of new plays and the boys are 'eager to hear the whistle blow that will send them into j action against the rivals. Hal Griggs has practiced many hours on place kicking and hi? “golden toe” Is sure to be a menace to Watash. Butlerites won’t be satisfied with field goals, however. Touchdowns are wanted and wanted badly. In recent seasons past, the Pagemen have been t nable to cross i Wabash’s goal line by the touchdown route and this fact has not been pleasant to Irvington rooters. ’ Get. a flock of touchdowns,’’ appears to lie the slogan this week in the camp of the Blue and White. Butler rooters are going to yell long and earnestly in pep sessions Friday in an effort to convince Wabash followers that the Pagemen are supremely confident and determined to roll up a victory Saturday that will leave no doubt about the suj premacy of Butler over the gridders from Crawfordsville. Ticket demand has been heavy and the largest crowd of the season here la sure to be present when the starting whistle sounds at Irwin field Saturday afternoon.

How Cigar Smokers Can Economize CIGARS, as well as other commodities, still cost mora than they did in pre-war days. And it is possible that the same really good cigars sold In normal times can never be bought again at the old prices, as there are certain conditions in the cigar business that do not exist in other lines. This Is especially true of the increased government tax or revenue stamp which is on every cigar box, both domestic and imported. The tax is now from $4.00 to $15.00 per 1,000, and it is generally understood that it will never be reduced. Despite the high prices, many thousands of cigar smokers have found a cigar which enables them to economize, and at the same time have obtained full satisfaction. It would be absolutely Impossible to produce a cigar of such fine quality and workmanship at anywhere near this price in this country, as it Is strictly all long-filler and positively made by hand. This cigar Is imported from the Philippine Islands, where the cost of labor Is only a fraction of that in this country. Besides, there are in the tropical Philippine Islands thousands of acres of good tobacco lands which produce vast quantities of fine tobacco and for much less than it is possible to grow it in any other country. This, likewise, is due to the extremely low cost of labor. Of all the different tobacco districts in the Philippine Islands, the very best tobacco comes from what is known as the Isabella section. The Isabella cigar factory, which makes this fine, inexpensive cigar, owns several thousand acres in the very heart of this Isabella section. No tobacco is ever put into this cigar except tobacco from the Isabeha section. From the time this cigar was put on the market in this country, it has been impossible to supply the demand. This cigar is called Manila Stubs, and because of the extraordinary demand for it, imitations of the cigar have been, attempted many times. Manila Stubs are imported from the Philippine islands duty free and distributed to the retail dealers by The House of Crane. The genuine has the name Manila Stubs printed in red on the label of every box, and they are put up in bundles of six cigars, with the name Manila Stubs printed on the ribbon around each bundle, thus giving the smokers undisputed protection, it is therefore his fault if he accepts a substitute. If they are bought by the bundle you can always be sure of the genuine. In addition, they can be obtained cheaper by the bundle of 6 for 25c. Other Manila cigars are being shipped to this country from the Philippine Islands and sold much cheaper than Manila Stubs. But time has proven that the original Manila Stubs are considerably above all others when it comes to quality. The name Manila Stub was copyrighted by The House of Crane many years ago and has always been made by the Isabella factory, Philippine Island. Manila Stubs are large, full size, five and one-fourth inches long, positively made by hand, and long filler. Sold to the smoker at 5c each or a bundle of six for 25c. Let us hope that the supply of the genuine Manila Stubs can be increased to the extent that all the great army of 6mokers can have the same opportunity to economize and at the same time obtain real satisfaction. The House of Crane IF IT COMES FROM THE HOUSE OF CRANE IT'S A GOOD CIGAR
