JYriRRIN’I the DOPE j By VEODEROARu!
Hr —HERE’S what George A. Barton of the Minneapolis Sun- ___ day Tribune said about Wabasil in its game with Minnesota last week. “Although badly beaten, the Wabash teapi never quit fighting, winning the admiration of the throng by battling with real courage until the field judge ended hostilities with his pistol, the conclusion of the contest finding the Hoosiers in possession of the ball and making every effort to score a second touchdown.” That kind of spirit is nothing unusual at the Crawfordsville school. It would have been more strange if the Little Giants had given up against the heavy Gopher eleven and the terrific pounding of the backs which gradually wore the Scarlet down. Football fans expect Wabash to battle the last ditch. That’s why out at Irwin Field next Saturday every seat will be taken. Two teams will be meeting whose members never say die. It will be a struggle between two stubborn and courageous rivals Who love each other—not. Each has respect for the other’s prowess on the field of battle. Each goes into the conflict ready for the most gruelling contest. The fans who sit in the-bleachers sense all this in a measure as the very atmosphere about the field seems charged with the electricity of desperate combat. * * o o : ACROSS THE BOARD TODAY : o o Three winners out of five ou Monday at Laurel. Not so bod. but we hud two of them hooked un in a porlnv w'Hi loser. Cobra was lust out of the dough in fourth nlace In a blanket finish w.tli the first and fourth horses hardly a length apart. OaCgiil-t and Clicne. the other two in the parlay, won. Luckily we also had $25 right ou Clioue’s nose Paavo was the other winner on a $25 win. plnee and show bt. B>r L’glit ran out of the mone>’. The bank roll went up. It is $261.35 today. We will stay at Laurel today and lust to show we don't give a dum put $5 win. place and show ou a steenie-ehaser in tho first event, on the card. Jot this down ill your note hook—DOUBLE TIP Another one of those parlays goes on SMOOTH ICE. THE COCOON and BEST SHOT—SS across the board. Fifteen dollars also goes on BEST SHOT’S bee/ST. BILL O’FLYNN and ERICA ' look worth a MO win. place and show combination hooked up together. BU Is carrying plenty of weight, hut he can do it. * * M' MICHIGAN is straining at the leash for that Illinois footl___J ball game next Saturday. The Wolverines have not forgotten how Red Grange tore through them last year In his sensational dashes which put the Ann Arbor team to rout. In 1924 both teams were undefeated before the battle. The situation is changed now. Illinois is the underdog, a rather peculiar position for the cocky Illlni. It is now the lordly Wolverines who are full of confidence after having trampled Indiana and Wisconsin with a dazzling attack. Michigan appears plenty strong enough to win, but Grange is always dangerous. He showed he was -the same snaky runner at lowa last Saturday. The invaders of the Illinois stadium must not become too confident. They must not forget the Grange threat which is ever present. Coach Zuppke has been known to spring surprises before. We wouldn’t put a nickel on Illinois’ chances against a team considered by some as one of the best in the middle-West. But we repeat, the Wolverines must not become overconfident. They’ll get plenty of opposition. • • * aF any Purdue University fans think the Boilermakers are in for a pleasant afternoon up at Madison, Wis., next Saturday, just because Wisconsin was defeated by Michigan, 21 to 0, last week, they have another think coming. It was due to no weakness of the Badgers that they lost. Rather it Was the exceptional strength of Michigan which has its , best team in years. To speak right out, If all reports are to be believed, Wisconsin right now has a more powerful eleven than Purdue. Tlie Lafayette team has a big task ahead. * * * Rush, former Technical High School athlete of tills city, received special notice in the Minneapolis papers for Irs lineplmiging against the Gophers in the Wabash contest. One account stated that “Rush displayed remarkable drive, and it usually took two to three Gophers to stop his wild charges iurough the Minnesota line.” * * * It must be nice to be a popular young man like Cliff Wells, Logansport High School basketball coach. Cliff won an auto in a popularity contest held in his neighborhood There’s a winner on which no mistake was made. Wells deserves any good things that come his way. (No, we haven’t got any basketball games to referee at Logansport, and don’t want any. It’s too far away, and besides we almost got into a riot once in that town, but it wasn't Wells’ fault.) They don’t make ’em any fairer or squarer than Cliff. • • • all INK Pennsyl v a ilia wasn’t smart? The Philadelphia school booked two big intersectional football games this year. The easterners knew they had something. Next Saturday Chicago is at Penna and the following week Illinois makes the trip East. Chicago’s great defense and powerful line will be tried to the utmost, with odds in favor of Pennsylvania. • * * The fists of Jack Britton made the former welterweight champion of the world his fortune and now they may help him lose a little. Britton Is in trouble with the Miami (Fla.) municipal government on a charge of resisting arrest and battling the three policemen who were required to lock him up.

EARLIER CLOSING SOUGHT 1926 Series May Start Oct. I—Player-Writers Opposed by Landis. By Henry L. Farrell, United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK Oct. 20— Action against player-writers and a proposal to close the playing season earlier will be considered by the major league club owners at their annual meeting in December. * After the umpires had complained during the world’s series about criticisms appearing in articles under the names of Bill McKechnie, Muddy Ruel and Roger Peckinpaugh, Commissioner Landis expressed himself as being oppos.ed to the literary activities of players. The commission is expected to have some remedy ready to propose to the club owners of the two major leagues at their next meeting. The club owners, feeling that the player-writer question is one directly in the hands of the commissioner, are not much interested in it, but they are interested seriously in the proposition that has been made to close the season earlier and avoid the weather gamble in the world’s :eries. It has been suggested that schedules be ended late in September and that the first game of the world’s series be played Oct. 1. The Baseball Writers’ Association also will take up the player-writer question as it concerns the members of the association. !

FOOTBALL STRATEGY — ■ Ijeg-s Play Big Pari
By Eddie Kaw, Cornell, All-America Back, 1922 F r ~~“J IRST of all, as to tho physical qualities needed to play the back field or half back position, I would advise the youngsters to train and exercise their legs especially, because their work depends almost entirely on the power and drive that they carry In their underpinning. Many coaches look at the legs first of all. The youngster should take especia, care in the development of his legs. He also wants to watch his ankles closely, as they have to bo able to stand a good deal of strain in dodging, starting and stopping quickly. If the youngster’s legs are bad, or if he has unything at all tho matter with them, I would advise him to stay out of football, because Without good legs he will be almost useless. Second, he should develop his legs as to endurance and proper breathing. Many a youngster is spoiled in high school by too much work and lack of training discipline. A backfleld man has need for all the wind he possibly can store up in his lungs. He always must have a little left to put on, a final-burst of speed to pass the last tackier. I certaimy advocate no smoking for the youngster until he is through competitive athletics. I never have smoked and never have had the least bit of trouble with my wind. Third, the youngster must train himself in the art of quick thinking and acting. It is especially essential that he be able to see his openings quickly and be able to take advan--tage of them at once. Many times a line will open up holes for the back field men and the backs will miss the hole, perhaps only by Inches, but this slight difference will mean that the aperture has closed again before the back discovers his mistake. The most valuable back to any team is one who can pick the which are made for him; and the linemen and other backs are (he ones that make the holes and it’s the smart half back that makes use of them. (One interesting way of practicing picking holes can be tried on the busiest of streets at noon hours or any congested time.

Scarlet Old-Timers to Banquet Friday —Students Doll Up ‘Rattle Bugs’ for Annual Parade Here. Enthusiasm for the annual Wabash-Butler struggle is in the air. Whoop la la 1 Cut ’er loose, gang, the feature rivalry conflict is only a few days away. Wabash oldtimersare getting set for their yearly night-before-the-game blowout at the Severin roof garden Friday evening at 6:30. The students of Wabash are dolling up the chug chug flivvers for the annual “pee-rade” here Saturday mo-rning.
Indianapolis citizens will gaze with laughing wonder when they see the Leaping Lenas from Crawfordsville puff, rattle and hop through the downtown streets. Something out of nothing describes these carts. They do a Charleston whenever they are asked to turn a wheel. Some Warriors Bruised Wabash grid warriors were bruised badly in the clash with Minnesota last Saturday, but Coaches Vaughan ind Reese are hopeful of having the lospital list cleared by Saturday when the Bulldogs will be met at Irwin Field. Pat Page’s squad has displayed fine strength the last two times out and a wild scramble is predicted when tho redhot rivals tangle. Graduate Manager Paul of Butler announced today that tickets for Saturday are in heavy demand. The ducats are on sale at Spalding’s on N. Pennsylvania St. The Wabt.sh game usually tops attendance marks for Irwin Field each fall and this year probably will see the stands filled. But arrangements have been made to accommodate a throng and there will bo no overcrowding. Wabash has defeated Hanover, Purdue and Muncie Normal and lost to Minnesota. Butler has ! knocked off Earlham and Franklin, tied De Pauw and lost to Illinois by a close score. Early dopesters are figuring the game a toss-up, though it is thought Butler will lie established tho favorite later in the week. Wabash Pep Session E. S. Lin ville, 623 627 N.

HARRY GETS HIS CHANCE!
Harry Eustls watched the boss shake hands with John Heed and wish him luck In hls new position. Then, very much disheartened he opened up hls ledgers, and settled down to his dally grind. He had been cruelly disappointed again. That advancement was rightfully his. He had been in the office a year longer than Reed. He had worked hls way up from office boy, until he was familiar with every detail of the business. But the firm needed successful looking men for road work! Men with a snappy and prosperous appearancel And how could any man look prosperous in a last year s suit, a reblocked hat and an overcoat which already had seen three sea-
sons’ service? How could he make hls customers have confidence in a firm which seemingly could not pay salaries large enough to allow t h e lr salesmen to dress well? On Wednesday the following week, one of
the star salesmen came In complaining of a very severe headache and terribly sore throat. “I have been ordered to bed by my doctor,” ho said to the Big Chief, “and there is that important conference at Dayton, tomorrow. Have we anybody here we can send up to take my place?” Harry pretended to be busy with his work but In hls mind was only one Idea, “If he would only give me a chance!” Just then the clock struck twelve; time for hls lunch. He ate a bite and then wandered down the main street, pausing a moment here and there to ldok In the various windows. Just thon a particularly fine looking suit In Askln & Marine’s window, caught his eye. He admired It, and as he turned to go, he noticed an attractive card. It read, “BUY YOUR

WALLACE IN NEXT MAIN GO Roy to Box Tommy Burns Here —Schaefer Boys Win and Lose. Roy Wallace, pride of Brlghtwood. will mix with Tommy Burns, Detroit light heavy, In the main event of ten rounds at Tomlinson Hall, next Monday night, In a fistic show to be staged by the Washington A. C. Matchmaker Harter closed the match last night and also announced he would have a strong supporting card. Wallace will be giving away weight when he tangles with Burns, but he is in top form and feels confident of outpointing the Michigan mauler. Joe Goldstein, Capital City A. C. matchmaker, staged a thriller show at Tomlinson Hall last night and the card went over big In every way except financially. Five bouts were staged and only one of the number fulled to keep the crowd Interested; Scully Stops' Meeks Ry Meeks, substituting for Billy Cecil in one of the prelims, proved a mark for Joe Scully and tobk the count in the third session. Scully was all over Meeks and had the lut ter punch goofy early. All other scraps went the limit. Frankie Schaefer, Chicago, shaded Sidney Click, Indianapolis. In ten rounds of fast fighting at 136 pound*. Click made a great showing i>galni the crack Windy City pug and his efforts pleased the fans. Frankie displayed belter liming of punches and better accuracy. Tie found Sidney willing, however, and was forced to step lively to pile up sufficient points to entitle him to the verdict. A low punch, landed unlntentlon ally by Schaefer In the third round, appeared to hurt Click. Dugan Does Well Jackie Dugan, Louisville, surprised the fans by gaining an edge over Herbie Schaefer, Chicago, In a tenrouted scrap at featherweight figures Iterble appeared to be slightly off his usual form and held back with his attack too long to overcome a lead piled up by Dugan. It was a good fight after the hoys got. warmed up. Schaefer was the stronger at the finish, but he stopped “plenty” before getting under way. Reamer Roberts, Indianapolis, shaded Young Babo Ruth, Louisville, in j six rounds of action and Johnny Murphy, Indianapolis, shaded Young Tucker. Louisville, in a slambang affair of six stanzas.
CLOTHES ON PAYMENTS, *2 I)OWfc IS ALL YOU NEED.” He looked at hlB watch. He still had twenty-five minutes before he was due hack at hls desk. He turned, walked into the store, and was greeted by the smiling manager. “I just noticed your sign In the window,” he said. “Do you moan to toll me I can buy a suit on crptlit?” “Why certainly,” said the manager. “we sell the season's newest styles for a small sum down and weekly payments to suit your own convenience." Harry was a little skeptical. “And all I have to pay Is $2.00 down? This is something now to me! I really don’t soe how you can sell clothes on credit!’’
“W h y, my dear fellow, said the maniigur, “don’t you know that credit Is the basis of all business?” “Why over ninety per cent of all the automobiles sold, today are bought on credit. Furniture. pia no,
jeVelry, radios, tires, household appliances, sewing machines—they're all sold on credit. Even tho roofing, wiring and painting of homes are paid for today on the Installment plan. Nobody pays cash any more; why should they? We've been selling clothing on this easy-payment plan for over thirty years. Harry was quick to see the logic of this and when he left the store he was attired In anew suit, top coat and hat —and such is tho psychology of being welldressed that he felt no fears at all but that he would be the one selected to go to that Important conference at Dayton. And he was! The deal went over big and Harry does not hesitate to give credit to CREDIT for hls success.
