"(“—INDEPENDENT football I teams of youths, 16 to 18 I 1 I years old, that go out of Indianapolis to play State clubs are rather dubious sometimes about just what sort of opposition they will run up against. Upon arriving in a town the players scan the horizon anxiously for signs of future opponents. Sometime ago a young local outfit made a trip for a game. The players were reassured while sitting In a restaurant as a youth came in carrying a pair of football pants. He seemed about their match. The shock came a little • later when a. big husky strolled into the establishment. "Here, pop,” said the youth with the grid breeches, "here’s your pants!’’ * • • > ACROSS THE BOARD TODAY 0 Some of our selection* on Wednesday were as cold as the weather. n*d we didn’t lay up a cent. In fact, we dropped a few dollars. One parlay went over, but did not add much coin. Blind Play and Lucky Play won. the former benefiting by a disqualification. Petle was second at Churchill Downs. StOiUewaH Jackson won at sweet odds, but we had him hooked up in a parlav with a couple of losers. Brotherly Lose kvas out of the money and Shampoo was scratched. Wise Counsellor also disappointed. He was an odds-on choice. Sun KaJah was third. The bank roll today is $307.28. In the first at Churchill today we will play OUTCAST. $8 win. place and show. Ten and ten sops on MISS HUME In the second, win and place. BAHBO--and BAI.BOA seem to go together. so we’ll play 'em that, way across the board, $5 win. pluce and show. • * * OHERE is an amateur football team in this city, the Acme A. A., which seems to be following strictly the Chicago University system. East season the Maroons were in three tie games against Big Ten opponents and won the Western Conference title. This year Chicago already has one 3 to 3 tie with Ohio State. The local Acme eleven has had three ties the last three Sundays. Against the Christamores the score was 6 to 6. The Belmonts and Grapplers were played with none of the outfits scoring a point. There’s one good thing about a tie. One can’t lose. * * The Illinois University football team on its way East to play Pennsylvania at Philadelphia in one of the big Intersectional games of the week will pass through Indianapolis today at 5:37 p. in. on the "New Yorker” of the Pennsylvania lines. In short, they are going . to ride Pennsylvania before the I game, anyway, r* ♦ * mHIS Is called to the special attention of those who were spattered with mud and soaked by the drizzle at Irwin field last Saturday. “The wind was bad In the first and fourth quarters, blowing diagonally across the field from the southwest. During the fourth quarter the dust was so bad that Ingram passed to Reget by mistake, but the Idaho player, facing the storm, was so blinded by the dirt that all he could do was knock the ball down. "Spectators in the grand stand, toward the latter part of the game, were as covered with dust as the players on the field.” This Is an extract from a Spokane (Wash.) paper describing the Gonzaga-Idaho game at that city last Saturday. * • • @ NATIVE son of Pennsylvania will bear Illinois’ chief threat against the Quakers at Pliiladelphia on Saturday in the big East-West feature. Although not many fans know it, "Red” Grange was born in Forksville, Pa. We wouldn’t have guessed it either if it hadn’t been for the on-the-job publicity bureau at Illinois University. It is not known whether or not the noted cltteen, who first saw the light of day In Forksville, was born ► with a silver spoon in his mouth. But he sure does knife his way through opposing lines. If we can’t punt in tills column we’ll pun just this once, in spite of all the groans. * ♦ • What could be more appropriate than Christmas Morning winning the feature race at Churchill Downs on Wednesday. It snowed all morning at Louisville and the Infield and stable roofs were covered with, "the beautiful” as Christmas Morning, taking the tip, did Its stuff. The “Big Green” football team of Indianapolis, Technical High .School, has only to follow the example of another “Big Green” eleven, Dartmouth, and it will win the State championship. • * * Indiana University grid coaches are anxiously thumbing through the almanacs these days. They are hoping there will be no ‘Moon” when I. U. tackles Northwestern next Saturday. A Purple "Moon” sailing across the gridiron Is enough to upset the best of teams. It is reported that "Moon” Baker, sensational halfback, is about ready to get back Into the fray for the Evanston team after a lay-off due to injuries. I• • • INUTE ROCKNE’S system of football will meet an unusual test In the East Saturdey. The game between Villanova and St. John will be a battle of the Notre Dame system. Both teams are coached by former stars from the South Bend institution. Ed Garvey, giant tackle of the 1921 eleven, tutors the St. John aggregation and Harry Stuhldreher and Ed Hunslnger are directing Villanova. • * * Babe Ruth should have followed "Across The Board.” He would have had some of his money left, anyway.

WILL ASK RETURN OF ‘GOAT’ Feeling That O’Connell, Former Giant, Has Had 1 Punishment Enough. By Henry’ L. Farrell United Pres* Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Oct. 29. —Commissioner Landis, head of baseball, will he asked at the annual winter meetings of the big leagues to reconsider the case of Jimmy O’Connell, the young former Giant outfielder, who was placed on the Ineligible list after the 1924 scandal. The movement Is not being pushed actively by any one connected with the New York club or any one with any particular sympathy for the former champions. Most of the National League officials and practically every player in the two big leagues feels that O’Connell acted innocently if he had any part in the attempt to bribe Heine Sand, the Philadelphia shortstop, so r"not hearing down” in one of the last games of the 1024 season against the Giants. They point out also that the New York criminal authorities failed to get a ease against the California youngster and the investigation of Commissioner Landis showed that he had acted innocently and had been made the “goat.” “The hoy was Just a green, Innocent youngster,” a prominent National League man said today. “He would do anything he was told, and he was made the goat for countless practical jokes.” "One time, in the eighth Inning of a light game in which the Giants were playing, one of the regulars sent him to the clubhouse for the home run hats, and he returned with an armful. “That boy has been given a big enough dose for what he was charged with doing, and they ought to take him hack.” THREE CUSHION MEET Neal Jones defeated Leo O’Connor on Wednesday night in the State three-cushion billiard tourney at Cooler’s parlors, 60 to 38 in sixtyfour frames.
