mSN’T is funny what a difference just a few weeks make! A short while ago football writers were telling us how Notro Dame would not cut any figure this year on the grid. Now they are going to the opposite extreme and saying the “Irish” look as good o • better than ever. It Is hard to believe the South Bend crew is an Improvement on last season’s onffl 1 ;. But miracles have happened before as Knute Rockne waves his magic wand. There is one thing sure. Notre Dame has a TEAM. The line is said to be really an improvement over the 1924 forwards. Maxwell at center, has stood out in the early games. He is a husky who is a bear on defense and a good passer and some go so far as to predict he is going to make ’em forget Walsh. Time after time Saturday he took two men out of the way and got the runner. He’s the kind that will block punts, Ilis spirit is superb and he keeps up a running line of chatter. The big boy sizes up plays in a hurry and bores in. Os course, the backfield is green and lacks the finesse of the great quartet of last year. But there is plenty of fine material in the rough and “Rock” will have them out of the kinks. At present they are a bit too anxious. There are fumbles and • lie backs are penalized for being in motion. The backs haven’t the speed of the “fouh horsemen,” but they are the same kind of rangy, tricky runners. They follow interference well and get plenty of it. Hoosiers need have no fear about Notre Dame keeping up its reputation on the grid this season. * * * EVVO local Prest-O-Lite baseball players are on opposing teams in the K. I. O. league championships, a two out of three series which starts at Ludlow, Ky., on next Sunday. Dick Plummer is pitching for Ludlow and Park is playing center field for the Garner-Harvey club of Middletown, Ohio. They are two real stars of the loop. Plummer’s pitching has been sensational and Park's work has been no less noteworthy. The outfielder is hitting .462 for the season and is leading the organization in base stealing. • * • 3 C ACROSS THE BOARD TODAY < Tuesday was a dismal day at Lntonin. A drizzle fell from the fourth on. and Across the Hoard was as melaiuholy as the weather. Jack Hauer was the ionly horse we had In the money. Cowpuncher, Bankrupt and Bnvedelhane were out of the donah, and Vnllette was scratched. The bankroll is $211.35. CLONABLKE in the first at Latoaia today looks worth s'l. win. place and shew. DlN'tiO ill tho third owes us money, and $5 across is the play. The same rocs on BONA VERA In the sixth. In tho last we’re right back on VALLETTK, $lO, win. place and show.

Ip*Y~lT is said that Dutch Rueth- | er, the Senators’ veteran T * —f left-hander, is in excellent shape. It’s our guess that he is very likely to start a game against the I’irates who are supposed to enjoy southpaw hurling. We guess again that the pestiferous Pirates will not enjoy what Dutch does to them. * • • That bonfire out at Irvington tonight in the Butler pep session ought to feel pretty good. • * • Wo see where two Ohio State gridders are on the sidelines because of sore feet. The Cornbuskers probably could fix them Up. * * * Greenwood High School should get some sort of a medal. It has the only prep football team in Johnson County. That's the home of basketball, made famous bv Franklin High and college teams. * * • Football coaches will In* surprised today to see how much pep their proteges display. The truth of the matter is the youths will ho trying to get warm. • • a S NUMBER of Robins signed, their contracts for’ 1928, before leaving for home. Much depends on where a team ends up in the race just how freely the ink flows. Brooklyn and Philadelphia finished in a ti for sixth, only two points from the bottom. • * • What’s a world series? Down in Brown County t lie folks aren’t worrying about it. There’s # fox hunt which starts at Nashville today Variety is the spice of life. Everybody to their own inclinations. We sorta feel sorry for the fox, though • • • Well, we like the White Sox for the first game in the Chicago series. (Not that anybody cares.) The reason is Ted Blankenship. This is something like predicting the Podunk and Five Corners high school football contest when Notre Dame and the Army are tangling. • • • Notre Dame has some half dozen on the hospital list because of minor injuries. But what’s a bucket of water out of the ocean? * * • Tex Rickard must groan with anguish when he sees the rush for tickets to the Notre Dame-Army football game to be played at the Yankee stadium on Oct. IT. Some* 60.000 spectators probably will be on hand. HARMON BOYS Wisconsin has two good hackfleld men in the Harmon boys, Leo and Doyle. Both stack up as stellar illround gridders. In their sophomore year last fall they acquitted themselves nicely and with a season's experience behind them are expected to do even better this campaign.

LINE WORRY Coach Phelan of Purdue Needs; Forwards. Du Times Special LAFAYETTE, Ind', Oct. 7.—Disappointed over the showing made against Wabash, but in no way disheartened, Coach Phelan and his Purdue football squad has buckled down to work for the next contest on the schedule, with De Pauw, in the Ross-Ade stadium, next Saturday. Phelan's worry over his line was well founded, it developed as the game with Wabash progressed, and the Boilermaker mentor must whip a forward defense into shap for the games to come. De Pauw, Purdue's scouts ' reported, showed a 50 per cent improvement in play against Butler, as compared to its showing the week previous, and It was remarked that the Greencastle eleven looked the strongest It has for a number of years. The bright spots of the Wabash game ware the performances of Wilcox! at halfback, and Scholl at end. Both the these men are sophomores. Wilcox handled the receiving end of punts in good shape. Taube, a veteran of two seasons, has been shifted to defensive halfback, and he turned in a great game .last Saturday.

Conch Ingwerson i9 keeping ouiet and practice was behind closed gates. Ingwerson seems satisfied with the line-up that beat Arkansas. AT ILLINOIS URBANA. 111..

After one quarter, the regulars hail no difficulty in stopping the yearlings and tearing off good gains. AT CHICAGO CHICAGO.

Greenebaum i strong card is defense, which may make him the choice. AT MICHIGAN AN ARBOR Mich.. Oct. 7.—lndiana is expected to unloosen an aerial barrage and Michigan worked on defense for it. The bad weather sent the squad indoors where Coach Yost found that Hemstein was his fastest runner.

State Officials’ Association

The Indiana Officials’ Association, at the second meeting of the football season held this week, settled several vital points regarding the handling of games and interpretation of rules for the balance of the present season. In order that coaches throughout the State may get the verdicts of the whistle blowers as soon as possible after they are acted upon, the plan was adopted whereby the Indianapolis newspapers will be given copies of the decisions on Wednesday of each week. Persons wishing to have questions concerning plays and decisions ruled upon should write the problem plainly and mail to .T. R. Townsend, secretary, 519 Board of Trade building, Indianapolis. Questions settled this week follow: Followinir critie'sm concerning l officials being out of position, it was decided Rule 25 shall be followed, the only deviation being where the staff consists of only referee, umpire and bead linesman, because most high schools are unable to employ field judge. The officials adopted a standard uniform dress. Criticism was directed toward officials who use baseball shoes and it was

the unanimous decision that they are not only dangerous to the players but to the official as well. It was agreed that In the sense of the organization.

SIGN COACH Ferndales Obtain Erehari, Former Indiana U. Star. Archie Erehart, former Indiana University football star and later grid coach for two years at Technical High School, has been signed to coach the Ferndale pro squad this season. 1 The Ferndale squad has been without a coach, and the coming of Erehart to the west side camp is hailed with joy by the team followers. While at the State University, Erehart was an outstanding player, ranking as one of the best half backs in the history of the institution. Perhaps his most notable achievement while in Big Ten competition was his run of 105 yards for a touchdown in a game between Indiana and Minnesota, after he had scooped up the oval five yards behind his own goal line. Since leaving Technical, Erehart has kept in elose touch with the grid sfrort by acting as an official in college and independent games. The gates will open at Washington Park Sunday at 1 o’clock and returns by innings of the world series game will be posted. The Elwood Lcgion-Forndale game will start at 2:30.

Usual Importance Attached to Outcome of First Game in Series to Decide Baseball Title. Du In ilii Press PITTSBURGH, Oct. 7.—The Senators of Washington and Pittsburgh, champions of the major league pennant races, opened the 1925 world’s series at Forbes Field here this afternoon. It has been sixteen years since this city saw a world’s series, but you would think from the enthusiastic, college boy conduct of the inhabitants that it was the first time the classic of baseball ever had been staged here.

Series Notes Hu I'niteil Press PITTSBURGH. Oct. 7.—lt was a cold night for the fans who stood in line at the bleacher gates since Tuesday afternoon. They huddled around bonfires and sang through chattering teeth to keep up their spirits. Ralph McCarkle, a local man, was first in line at tho genera! admission gate. He was so cold and blue he hardly could explain that lie picked the Pirates to win in four straight games. Robert E. Klein of Denver, Colo., sprinted into second place in the line of bleacherites, which is an inevitable feature of every world's series. He, too, is a Pirate fan. Early today It was apparent there would not be enough general admission seats to take care of all the breacher fans who would be in line by the time the gates were thrown open for the opening game this afternoon. The long lines winding away from the park were growing each minute. Although • many ticket scalpers opened offices downtown and worked openly without molestation, two men alleged to have been offering world’s series tickets for sale were arrested Tuesday night in the William Penn Hotel. They were held in SSOO bail for a hearing today. LOOKS AHEAD Wabash to Meet Muncie Normal, Then Minnesota. Du Times Special CR AW FORDS VILLE, Oct. 7.

Wabash coaches are already pointing their efforts towards the Minnesota game a week from Saturday and it was announced that visitors would be barred from the field the latter part of the week. The entire Wabash team came out of the Boilermaker scrap in good shape. ALL SET FOR CENTRAL Manual Team in Good Shape for Friday’s Game.

There was just as much talk of baseball and flattering support of the Pirates as there was of the Reds in Cincinnati in 1919, of the Indians in Cleveland in 1920 and of the Senators in Washington in 1924. Some old timers, who harkened back to the 1909 Pirates, said this year's team has no Fred Clarke or Hans Wagner playing, but it is good enough to win. The youngsters offer the argument that no Pirate team of the past had the offensive strength and speed that enabled the 1925 club to dash over all opposition and win the National League pennant. All Choice Seats Gone Reserved seats were sold out two weeks ago—even before the Pirates had reached that mathematical certainty. There were no seats of any kind available today before the gates leading to the unreserved section were opened. There were the usual lines extending in long rows before all the unreserved seat ticket windows, and it What Managers Said Du Times special PITTSBURGH, Oct. 7 —What the two managers said as the hour of combat approached in the big series: BUCK HARRIS: “Bringr on the Pirates. Were ready. I'm sailing for Europe Nov. 12 and the sooner we win this series the better for me. Our g-anfr is in (treat shape this time, ,-uid 1 wouldn’t be surprised if we ended it in five Karnes. BILL M'KECIINIE: “Pittsbursrh will win the world's championship. Our attack will sweep Washington's defense down. The Senators have a (treat roster of inflelders, but I believe we can match it. Our offense Is hetter. So is our outfield and -vp should get more consistent pitching throughout tho series.” was apparent hours before game time that the park would be filled to its capacity. There were plenty of American Leaguers in town and the gossip around the hotel lobbies, the cigar stands and other establishments where fans gathered, showed the widest divergence in opinion on the outcome of the series that has been heard in years. Senators Ask Odds Washington backers looking upon the city as foreign territory were looking for odds. In Washington under similir circumstances the Pittsburgh partisans would have been asked odds to represent home-, town pride. After listening to all the talk, however, the two teams seemed to be even choice in the betting, with Washington being granted the advantage of experience and smarter baseball and Pittsburgh being conceded superiority in all-around batting strength and speed. Great importance, of course, is always attached to a victory in the first game of a short series as the winning manager can afford to gamble on his advantage In ’he later games.
