Wabash wants to beat the Johnson County club with Fuzzy In there to quiet the skeptics who are yet unconvinced that the Scarlet can turn the trick. It does make a difference witli Vandivier playing. No one will deny that. Just how much difference will be shown when Franklin comes here Wednesday. A comparison of the Franklin-But-ler game and the Wabash-Butler battle shows Franklin and Wabash almost on an eoual basis Both were held clo'ie by ti e defensive tactics of the Indianapolis club, but both won out by small margins, Franklin by five points and Wabash by three. The locals continue to keep at top form as the Not re Dame scrap showed on last Saturday. Red Robinson continues to score many points and the rest of the team is in good shape. Coffel, back guard, is practically all right again and the Scarlet will throw its full strength against Frank!n. No one expects another topheavy score, but most every Wabash follower is predicting another victory in a hard game.
