STIRRIN’ the DOPE By VBUDER OAKU
SHE time to throw a forward pass is when the opposition is not looking for it. That's a bright statement, isn't it? But how many teams really surprise with a pass? It is not so much the play as how and when it is executed that fools the opposition. Plenty of teams advertise thenpasses to the whole wide world. In these days a pass to succeed must be a bolt out of the blue. It must catch the secondary defense pulled In. There Is no better time to pass than on the first down, especially if a plunging game has been the procedure up until the time for the surprise. Pennsylvania beat Chicago with a pass on first down when tie Maroon backs were close in to aid in stopping Kreuz, Penna’s great smashing full back, who had ripped off a thirty-yard run right through the middle of the opposing line on his first effort. Right here in Indianapolis Sunday the Ferndales caught Peru flat-footed on a forward pass with not one of the visitors near the receiver. There were no preliminaries that made the play look like a pass. It was a surprise—an element which is essential in the best football attack. \ Those who got in late to tho VVabash-Butler game never discovered that there was a colored youth playing in the Bulldog line until the players washed tiro mud off between halves. • * * ST begins to look as though they will have to quit calling Cecil of Butler a fat boy—not because he isn’t heavy, but just because it takes a lot of nerve to call the barrel-shaped youth any names except good ones after the way he got down the field in the Wabash-Butler contest. We don’t know how fast Cecil can run, but he surely is a good mud horse. Most of the time he beat the speedy, slim Bulldogs down the field under punts to fall on the ball or tackle the Scarlet kick receiver. Cecil may be full of curves, but the former Manual gridder doesn’t let a little avoirdupois slow him up. Coach Page hates excess poundage—oh, how he hates it! But there just has to be exceptions to all rules. Cecil was worth several of the beautiful, slender gridtiers last Saturday. * * * 0 o : ACROSS THE BOARD TODAY O * o Deeming entile across for us on Saturday in the big race at Churchill Downs. Wildwood was third and Bassorah also I showed. T?ie bank roll went up and today is $300.85. Today at Churchill Downs we’ll try $3 win, place and show on LOUISVILLE AND NASHVIL.DK in the first. In the third HIGH PRINCE can do it and the same play goes on him. In the fifth SIOBNING CDOL'D, in under a feather, is selected to take (lie measure of Bourbon Boy, the probable favorite. Five dollars across is the play. LITTLF. VISITOR in the sixth and MIDNIGHT ItOSK in file final event will be combined in a $5 win, place and show parlay. * * It hasn’t been discovered yet where Illinois was trying to throw those forward passes in the Michigan game, but it is certain where they landed. They were caught by the Wolverines —eight out of twelve. Molenda intercepted five which is quite an afternoon’s work in Itself. * * * Newell Banks, checker champion, who is in the city today, says that lie picked Pittsburgh <o win the baseball series. Furthermore he says it is the tenth straight winner he lias picked for the world championship in baseball. We are going to Wire him next year so to know who to put our dough on. • * • SHE ladies In this day of women are Invading the horse racing game with much success. There are quite a number of the fair sex who own racing stables of renown. And fc that’s not all. The equine per- “ formers themselves are stepping out. Princess Doreen made a remarkable record during the summer in handicap events. The latest filly to step into the limelight is Deeming, which won the Palls City Handicap on Saturday, after taking the gruelling two and one-quarter-mile Latonia Cup on the Saturday before. • * * That was a tough assignment for Umpire Chiil of the American .Association, who got a trip to California to officiate in the San Francisco-Louisville series. * * 9 im jHE Army mule is stepping out. Since its victory over Notre Dame the old ways are not good enough. The Army mule is to have anew blanket. The covering of old with the word Army embroidered on it is to go. The latest wrinkle is to be a combination of the Army colors of black and gray and gold with a block "A" on a gray background- Gold stars will be sprinkled in; the emblems of Army victories over the Navy. There will be alternate stripes of black and gold with a gold fringe. Some blanket! Some mule! And Yale is } the opponent next Saturday. The “Big Three” this season is about as small as it is possibM for anything big to become. 9*9 Dartmouth must have an astounding, marvelous, magical, astonishing, super-smashing, wonderful (and any other adjectives you can think of) football team! It must be a tidal wave, a tornado, an earthquake, a typhoon, a flood! It must be a heluva ball club! 9 9 9 Two Ft. Harrison football teams lost on Sunday. The day was more suitable for the Navy than the Army.
DARTMOUTH LOOMS AS ONE OF COUNTRY’S BEST GRID TEAMS
WILLS IN GO WITH JOHNSON
Looks Like Harry Has Nothing to Gain in Bout Tonight.
Bu Times Special NEW YORK, Oct. 26.—Harry Wills is going to fight tonight and he is going to have a tough time of
t. Because even if he wins —as he assuredly will —he is going to lose. Wills’ curious predicament is caused by fact he is matched with Floyd Johnson, an extremely indifferent heavyweight from lowa. Wills ought to cut Johnson to pieces, provided he doesn’t knock him out In the first few minutes of play. If the Black Panther does either of these things, he will be given a booing on the grounds that he has been fighting a “set-up.” And, if by any miracle the lowa Bulldog receives inspiration from the gods and rises in his heretofore negligible might and whips the Black Panther, then the Black Panther will be completely finished. The chorus of razzberries then will reach a crescendo of criticism and Wills will be asked how he ever had the temerity to even suggest a fight with Gene Tunney or Jack Dempsey, the vanishing warrior. Moreover, Wills is not going to make a lot of money by fighting Johnson in a Newark armory. Sizeable money isn’t made over there and the only thing he can make is the best of a cold deal which will bring him no nearer to a fight with Dempsey.
J. J. C.s Win Over Battery B
Uncovering a sparkling assortment of well-rehearsed plays, the J. J. C. football team downed the Ft. Harrison Battery B eleven at Pennsy Park Sunday, 27 to 0. Phillips, Scanlon, Beckman and Sylvester counted the touchdowns for the winners, and the forward pass was used to gain the point after touchdown on three occasions. The ankle-deep mud did not seem to bother the J. C. C.s and they used about all the plays in the book. The Army team braced at times and held for downs, but was unable to organize a continued attack. Next Sunday the Riversides come to Pennsy Park in the first of a series of intra-city games. CHECKER CHAMP HERE Newell Banka to Give Exhibition at Y. M. C. A. Tonight. Newell \V.

FOOTBALL TITLE RACE IN BIG TEN NARROWS Michigan and lowa Stand Out In Conference Ohio State and Purdue Eliminated. By Edward C. Derr, United Press Staff Correspondent. CHICAGO, Oct. 26.—Four team s with clean slates in the Big Ten championship race remain in the r unning. Two of the four face Big Ten teams this week and it is prob able that the same four elevens — Michigan, lowa, Chicago and Minn esota —will lead the pack again next Monday.
Minnesota has a questionable right to its place in the select quartet, having its slate clean because It has not yet met a conference rival. The Gophers lost to Notre Dame Satur day and open their championship next Saturday. Three for Micliigan Michigan tops the list with three conference victories, Indiana, Wisconsin and Illinois, being the Wolverine victims. Coach Yost has a powerful machine and stands a good chance to finish the championship season without a defeat. The Wolverines face a tough foe in the Navy this week-end, but the result will have no bearing on the title. lowa, known to have a strong team, did even better than expected by winning from Ohio State, 15 to 0. The Hawkeyes now have two victories and no defeats. They take on Wabash in a nonconference game this week-end. Chicago had its goal line crossed for the first time this season when Pennsylvania scored a touchdown and beat the Maroons, 7 to 0, but this game had no effect on Chicago’s conference standing. Coach Stagg’s team has a victory' and a tie to its credit and faces Purdue this weekend. Close One to Badgers Wisconsin, already eliminated by vlichigan, set the skids under a Big Ten eleven Saturday by defeating Purdue, 7 to 0. Illinois showed surprising strength 'n holding Michigan to a field goal victory. The Ulini line has strength-

RIVALRY CONFLICT IS EVEN Wabash Gains Often, but Butler Defense Holds — Mud Mars Feature. Wabash almost succeeded in get- . ing rid of the Irwin Field jinx Saturlay—almost. Three times the Scarlet •varrlors had chances to put over a ouchdown on Butler and three times hey didn’t quite do it. It was dis.eartening to the W'abaah rooters. It was the big game of the day in Indiana, but resulted In one of those unsatisfactory scoreless tie affairs. Difference in Downs The visitors have only the satisfaction of knowing that they counted more first downs than Butler, hut the score said 0 to 0 as the final gun was fired. Rush and Parr crashed and wiggled their way through the Butler defense only to be stopped at the crucial moments. Gripe kicked in splendid form on a wet and muddy field with a wetter, muddler ball. Northam and Nippv also punted well. Try for Breaks Both teams k’cked frequently in an effort to get the breaks of a fumble. Both did get some breaks when the slippery ball eluded the grasp of the receiver, but neither team was able to take enough advantage of the slips to score. Cecil in the line for Butler carried his avoirdupois up and down the field in great style and Northam did well In the local backfleld. Nipper also handled punts well. It was a bad, bad day and the spectators shivered in a cold drizzle. And the result of It all was nothing to nothing. Notre Dame came to life at Minnesota. and profiting by a couple of “breaks” in the final quarter stepped out for two touchdowns which meant defeat for the Gophers, 19 to 7. The game had been dead-locked for three quarters at 7 to 7. Purdue Captain Injured Purdue fought hard against Wisconsin, but lost, 7 to 0. The Boilermakers got another hard blow when Captain Harmeson broke a bone in his ankle. It is reported tho halfhack will be out for the remainder of the year. Indiana “U.” was too strong for Miami and defeated the Ohio team, 25 to 7. Franklin slid through the the mud to a 7 to 6 victory over State Normal. Hanover’s homecoming was a failure when Earlham beat the Hilltoppers, 26 to 0. Evansville defeated Rose Poly, 6 to 0.

“Big Green’’ Eleven Smothers Harvard —Pennsy Keeps Records Clean t —Other Winners. . By Henry L. Farrell United Press Stall Correspondent NEW YORK, Oct. 26.—Coming out of another Saturday of hard competition with their heads high, Dartmouth, Pennsylvania, Michigan, lowa, Alabama, Stanford, Missouri and Ames are still leading for intersectional football honors.
Tho most notable victories of the big week end games were those of Dartmouth over Harvard, Alabama over Georgia Tech, Pennsylvania over Chicago and Michigan over Illinois.

Among the leading teams, the only ones who have not been defeated or held to a tie are Pennsylvania, Army, lowa, Dartmouth, Holy Cross, Michigan, Syracuse, Alabama and Virginia. GuffiQwz QUESTIONS 1. Is it permiss.ble for the player in possession of the ball to attempt to further advance it by crawling? If not Is the penalty for so domic five or fifteen yards? 2. IVhat is tho penalty for sideline eon chine? 3. What recourse has an official when a player uses abusive language? ANSWERS 1. Crawling ia not permitted. The penalty is the lose of five yards. 2. B‘deline coaching is contrary to the best ethics of the game. The team supposed to benefit is pena’lzed by the loss of fifteen yards. If the ball was dead at the time, tho penalty shall bo enforced from that spot. If in play when the otfenae waa committed, from tho spot where the play started 3. The official can penalize tho team of tho player using abusive language by a loss of fifteen yards If the oondltion is very unusual, he may not only indict the yard arc loss but also disqualify tlie player offending.
