r=r|HE handicappers surely I think liighly of Princess I * I Doreen’s ability when they give the mare top weight of 127 pounds in the gruelling two-mile-Latonia Cup race next Saturday. It is the feature of the closing day at the Kentucky track. Altawood, considered by many the best of the route runners, was assigned 124 pounds. Seldom indeed is a mare asked to carry the weight allotted to the Princess. And seldom is there such a game thoroughbred. It is not yet definitely decided whether Altawood will make the trip West for the stake. “Ham” Keene, the owner, is endeavoring to get Sande to ride. If this arrangement can be made Altawood will be seen at Latonia on the final day of the fall meeting. • * * o : ACROSS THE BOARD TODAY c Well, we had another good one on Tuesday. Kubiai Khan won the first at odds of $13.10 to $3. Marsdaie was second, and the show end of the Devon and Hyperion parlay went over. Certain was far from that and finished back in the mire. The bank roll is now at $314.75. The Latonia card today Is not. much to rave about, but we wlll stick n> that track. The fields are small, which may help us light on a winner or two, but short fields also make short prices. LORD MKISK Likes the mud. and so we like Lord Meise. Two dollars, win. place and show, is the ticket. GOLDFIELD may prove the best of the cheap ones In the second, and will get another $3 across-the-board play. FLORENCE MILLS In the fourth, LITTLE VISITOR in the sixth and ROCKY in the seventh net ss wln-and-place play. * * * M~~]UNCIE and Elkhart High School football teams seem to be among the strongest in the State. It is a bit early to get a definite estimate of a team, but the first games of the season clearly show that both the above clubs are exceptionally powerful. Indianapolis has plenty of prep grid sport with Technical, Shortridge, Manual, Broad Ripple, Ca- , the,lra], Deaf School and Boys’ Prep in the field. There was a time when inter-school athletic sport was barred between Manual and Shortridge, the only local high schools. Those were tough years for the athletes, and the city institutions have never quite recovered. * • In high school football circles in this Stato there lias been a great deal of discussion about clipping this season. Clipping is described in the rules as folows: Throwing the body from behind across the leg or legs (below the knees) of a player not carrying the bail. This, however, does not apply to close line play. A penalty of twenty-five yards goes with violation. The State officials association has designated a radius of two yards as “close line play.” Clipping Is a play that should never happen in high school. It is a stunt which lias injured more players than all others put together. Some coaches in games seem to have been confused as to just what clipping is. Others closed their eyes and hoped the officials would be lenient. It is a practice which should be wiped out by the most drastic means and officials should be constantly on the alert. * * *

of Coach Rockne’s I A I strategy Is not used to del'**l vise plays for his football team. The Notre Dame wizard knows how to reach the mental processes of his players and get their minds in condition as well as their bodies. And the mind, after all Is king. If one wants to use a big word, Knute is an expert psychologist. Right now he is putting out stories that his green team will not have a chance with the Army. Can you imagine how that word "green” makes a fighting football player feel? It makes him boiling bad. He’ll show ’em how green he is. That’s the reaction. And in that Army game he’ll fight with the fierceness of a tiger. Which is just exactly what the astute Mr. Rockne desires. * • * As Mrs. Mala prop would say, today was the crucible game of the world serial. The hopes of one team or tli© other were to be dashed to “terror firmer.” Johnson waa to pull himself up by the galluses to the height© or be kicked in the pantaloons thus spoiling his two great pervious expositions. As Julius Caesar remarked: “Ilfs going to be or it won’t.” * * * L_ JKIjD, we were right in the |Y]y I contention that Marberry * ” I hatted out of turn in Saturday's world series game. Four umpires and two teams allowed a man to go to bat out of his position In the diamond classic. That’s on© for the book. Ajocording to Sporting News, Pittsburgh score keepers tried frantically to get Manager MeKechnie's attention at the time, but were unsuccessful. The case came up when Lelbold batted for Ferguson and McNeely ran for Liiebold. McNeely then went to center field and ♦Ring shifted over to right, Joe Harris leaving the game. Marberry went to the mound. Marberry then batted in Ferguson’s place instead of taking Joe Harris’ niche In the hitting order. • • • SHE Chicago Cub management probably feels a little better now over that trade with the Pirates that included Vic Aldridge in the transaction which brought Cooper to Chicago. Cooper won two games from the Sox in the olty series. When Wilbur gets his little slice of Chicago series dough we wouldn’t give a penny for his thoughts. We are a mind reader. see if you can guess.

Burwell Is Sought by Reds

According to a dispatch out of Cincinnati today. Bill Burwell, the leading pitcher of Ownie Bushes Indians, is going to become a member of Jack Hendricks’ Reds next season, but, according to William Clauer, the Tribe’s “home” secretary, there is nothing definite about the deal. Clauer said the Cincinnati team indicated some time ago that Burwell was desired, but Owner Smith told the agents of the Reds he was not ready to talk business concerning his best twlrler. Jt is understood the Reds will make an attractive offer during the winter meeting of the National League, but fans close to Owner Smith ;ind Manager Bush are of the opinion Burwell will be retained by the Indians.

PLENTY HARD-BOILED IS THAT PITTSBURGH TOWN Pirate Fans, During Sixth Game, Act as Though They Eat Raw Meat —Senators 'Razzed/ By Westbrook Pegler. PITTSBURGH, Oct. 14.—This is a hard-boiled town. Pittsburgh believes that Goliath agreed to take one on the chin, that Lady Godiva wore overall tights and that the Headless Horseman of Sleepy Hollow was just some left-handed pitcher jumping a contract with the Elmira team of the New York State League.

You can't tell Pittsburgh anything. You couldn’t, that is, until the Pirates finally squared the world series Tuesday, by winning from the Senators, 3 and 2. As the last putout of the game vanquished the Senators and brought the series score to three games apiece, Pittsburgh leaped cut >ot the stands and bleachers and swept over the ball field, jibbering, yowling, thrashing the murky air with loony gestures. All Are Heroes Pittsburgh forgot that the Pirates were just a bunch of guys from around town and made heroes of them all. The fans floundered over the railings and surged down the runway toward the dressing room, trying to touch the liannel of the players’ uniforms. In Washington, the Senators are regarded as a set of nice young athletes and the municipal “varsity.” In Pittsburgh, up to this time, the Pirates always have been regarded as members of the gang who happened to be playing ball for a living. Whereas there is a certain polite forebearance in Washington regarding past failures of the Individual Senators, Pittsburgh has always been willing to yelp 8t some member of the Pirates who seemed to be growing fend of himself and remind him of the time he was waived out of the Kitty League. The people of Pittsburgh are very outspoken always, but they were especially candid to the Senators and the umpires as the Tuesday world series game was fought out. Aleck Ferguson was pitching a fairly good game for the Senators, but local sportsmen didn’t hesitate to remind him that there are ninetysome trains out of Pittsburgh every day any one of which would carry him back to the bushes. Mason as Cheer Leader Red Mason, the manager of Harry Greb, however, officiated as a sort of cheer leader for the local clientele, all afternoon, bawling his “witticisms” through a megaphone four feet long. “Oh, you dirty hum,’’ said Mason through his horn, addressing himself to George Moriarity, the American League umpire, “Oh You Dirty Rotten Bum.” There was great vigor in all of his remarks. But Mason reached (he high note of his recitation in jesting at a Senator’s wounds. Joe Harris was up. “Oh, looka the puss on that guy,” Mason exclaimed through his megaphone. “That guy’s got everything but a tin ear, that guy has.” Mason was quite right. “That guy’s” face certainly has been scuffed up. It got that way about seven years ago when ha was doing some work for the Government for S3O a month, in France.

Fans Forget the “Razzberries” When Sulky Second Sacker Booms Homer and Evens Series. By Frank Getty v United Prtss Staff Correspondent PITTSBURGH, Oct. 14.—As so often happens, a world’s series player has stepped from virtual oblivion into the fierce glare of the spotlight and the glowing hero worship of his fellow townsmen. In the case of little Eddie Moore, the sulky and somewhat conceited Pittsburgh second sacker, it is a case of making a hero out of a “goat.”

. Since his long home run into the left-field stands broke up Tuesday’s ball game and evened the series for the Pirates, Eddie has been the biggest- man in Pittsburgh. Before that decisive blow was struck he had been the target for heartless “razzberries” and even cries of “take him out.” Off to Bad StartMoore was not very popular with the fans or his team-mates, principally because he was most certain and assertive about his greatness. Eddie had been unable to do much against the Washington pitchers, and his weakness at bat had been costly to tho Pirates in earlier games. Just before Une Tuesday game there came one of those "breaks” which have so much to do with the outcome of world’s series games. During Pittsburgh batting practice, Eddie, who was at the cage taking his turn, was struck on the right hand by a fast ball. The pain was so great that the youth feared

Hides From Boss Until ten minutes oeforo game time the youngster hid out, fearful that BUI McKechnie, his manager, would find him and know he had been hurt. Old Hontis Wagner, who was a big league baseball star before Moore was born, came upon Eddie, sobbing as though hts heart would break. "What’s the matter, kid?” gsked Wagner. “I’m all right, John. I’ll be in there,” Eddie sniffed. Then Moore ran out onto the field and concealed his injury. His batting was tho feature of the contest and it was his homer in the fifth that won for Pittsburgh.

Coach Page Is drilling his varsity squad on Franklin formations and "Jut” Paul, graduate athletic manager, /is working hard to make the game one of the best local football “shows” of the season.

The first ten sections of the bleachers have been reserved for the visiting spectators. A large crowd is expected from Franklin. Three bands will toot their stuff. Besides the bands of the two schools, the Masonic Home musicians of Franklin have been invited to blow their best. The Butler first string llns-up seems fairly well decided as far as the line is concerned. There are a number of good back field men who havo been shifted around considerbaly. Nipper probably will call the signals. It is said that Merle Miller is making a strong bid for the full back job and may get a chance.
