7 the DOPE By VEDDEROARD

r--7.HR Delta Phi Sigma fraI' I’l ternity football team of 1 * l Butler College pulled a "Harold Lloyd” on the Lambda Chi Alphas this week in the semifinals of the grid series staged at the local school. After a penalty there was a big argument. The center gave the ball to one of his backs who acted real “sore.” He took the ball and started stepping off the yards tcfward the opponents’ goal as though he was measuring back the distance of the penalty. He kept going faster and faster. When the opposition woke up the ball carrier was sprinting. Somebody caught him ffom behind on the 5-yard line. • • • CHANCES FOR UPSETS Minnesota against lowa.

She was also astonished at the news that Coach Rockne was to start anew quartet in the backfield. Mrs. Malaprop is of the opinion that if the singers were like most college quartets she had heard they should not be allowed to warble anywhere—not even in the back lot. We didn't “get her" at first when she spoke of an eating match in* Madison Square Garden. She said the entries must have wonderful digressions to last for six days, and wondered if It was sort of a super-pie eating contest. The light finally broke through when she showed us the headline “Goullet In Six-Day Grind.” She referred, of course, to the bicycle race.

THREE FEATURE COLLEGE GRID GAMES WITHIN STATE SATURDAY

ENVADING TEAM IS FAVORITE Dartmouth 9 to 5 Choice Over Maroons, but Wet Field Is Disliked. By Edward <J. Derr, United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Nov. 14.—Dartmouth’s "Big Green” team steamed into Chicago today intent upon defeating Chicago Maroons Saturday and claiming a national football championship. The Dartmouth players looked fit and ready for the battle, but the coaches expressed concern over the prospects of a wet field, which would favor the Chicago eleven. Among the however, odds are as high as 9 to 5 on Dartmouth. This game because of its intersectional interest, heads the Middlewest's football program this week. The Notre Dame-Carnegie Tech game at South Bend is attracting only passing attention. lowa at Minnesota Among the championship games in the Big Ten conference, the Min-nesota-low-a clash at Minneapolis will attract attention with the Mich-igan-Ohio State game at Ann Arbor, a close second. Minnesota obtained a tie with Wisconsin, their only conference game. If they can beat lowa and Michigan they can claim the championship. If they win only one game the championship will be divided among several teams. The Michigan-Ohio rivalry will be revived at Ann Arbor and the game will have something to do with the final Big Ten standing because each team has suffered. only one defeat and one is sure to be dumped from consideration. Michigan Is Favorite The Wolverines, who lost to Northwestern last Saturday in the biggest upset of the season, are favored to win. Still fresh from their victory over Michigan, Northwestern journeys to Lafayette to engage Purdue. A | victory for Northwestern will place that team in a position 1o claim a tie for the championship in event Minnesota is beaten. Illinois meets Wabash at Urbana, Wisconsin clashes wjfh Michigan Aggies at Madison and Indiana plays host to Rose Poly at Bloomington. NEW PLAYERS / Ferndales Groom for Hartford City Grid Battle. Manager Nelson of the Ferndale grid team is negotiating with two stars who close their college football careers Saturday and it. is said he stands an excellent chance of obtaining the players for Sunday's big tilt with the Hartford City A. A. eleven. This conflict is to be staged here at Washington Park. Sunday, and keen interest has been aroused in the fracas. Hartford City is coming "loaded for bear” ar.d a number of fans will accompany the visitors to Indianapolis to lend side-line support. The Hartford management advised the locals he had signed Wcrthen and Burns, Franklin College linemen, and this caused the Ferndale pilot to put out lines for additional .stx-ength. Wally Atherton, formerly a star with a regular Army outfit, will be at quarter back for the Ferndales, Sunday. He handled himself in fine style during practice Wednesday. Coach Erehart has called another Ferndale drill tonight and there will be a light workout, Sunday morning. Sunday’s game will start at 2:30. Throughout the United States there are 3,200 golf clubs, with a membership of 1,200,000.

varsity in basketball and baseball. Hanson is an end on the football team, a forward in basketball and second baseman of the bas/f-ball nine. Carr Is an outfielder and has played both forward and guard In basketball, in addition to his football duties.

JOE WILLING Veteran Canning May Get in J. J. C. Line-up. Joe Canning, manager of the J. J. C. Ham, who has put a kick Into the local independent grid situation by an almost overnight reorganization of his eleven from a good lightweight outfit into a strong contender for city title honors, paid today he would don the moleskins Sunday afternoon when his team meets the Ft. Harrison eleven at Pennsy Park, and if it appeared that the going was getting tough for his team ho would take his place in the line. Canning, for a number of years, was considered one of the best linemen In the State. Tonight at Indlanola Park the J. J. C-s will hold their final practice of the week.

The real features are for the edification of Hoosier fans this week. Perhaps the l>est of the contests is Northwestern at Purdue. Two fighting, scrapping trams will meet in what*promises to be a real thriller. The Purple gained much prestige by its startling upset of Michigan last week. Purple Aee in Action The Boilermakers will be forced to face even a stronger aggregation than defeated the Wolverines, as Ralph (Moon) Baker will be in the line-up. The Northwestern back field Hash is scheduled to call signals, and he is likely to call on himself quite frequently. Baker is a grid pearl of the first water. He seems susceptible to injury, however, and has not been of much advantage to his team this season. The Purple-clad team has a chance for the Big Ten title, and very likely will give Purdue a terrific fight. Coach Phelan's youths are no slouches at the battling stuff themselves. however, and are ready to give as much as they take. Northwestern rules a favorite. It is homecoming for Purdue. Carnegie Tech Is at South Bend for the "Irish” home-coming day celebration. Roekne’s team this season, after losing all of its famous players of 1924, has not been the same invincible machine as heretofore. N. D. Is Favorite There is still some doubt as to its exact strength. Last week’s 0 to 0 tie with Penn State was not an impressive showing. But Notre Dame is the favorite to win Saturday. A good game is promised local fans at Irwin field when the strong Dayton University team comes to town. Reports from the Ohio institution state the eleven is the best team in Dayton's history. Haskell Indians were the victims of the Ohioans last week. Pat Page's grldders may have a tough afternoon ahead. Everybody interested is hoping for some sunshine. Nothing else much matters. Butler freshmen team will be at Lexington, Ivy., to play the Kentucky "frosh.” Indiana University entertains Rose Poly at Bloomington. It is just one of those preliminary affairs as I. U. prepares for the big stadium dedication and home-coming on the following Saturday with Purdue as the grid opponent. Franklin at Earlham Franklin closes Its season at Earlham In the homecoming feature attraction for the Quakers. From previous scores it looks as though Franklin may spoil the celebration for the Richmond team. Hanover is at De Pauw. If the Tigers can’t win that one it will be an unlooked for calamity at Greencastle. Eastern Illinois Normal meets State Normal at Terre Haute. It la another homecoming Occasion. Wabash expects to give Illinois a battle at Urbana, but not even the most radical Scarlet rooter hopes for victory. Illinois has come to the front as the season has advanced and now is rated as one of the strongest In the Big Ten. MOSHER WINS Mosher defeated Bray in the city three-cushion billiard tourney Thursday night at the Boaid of Trade parlors, 50 to 34. Mosher had a high run of nine.

ANOTHER RIVALRY CONTEST Tiger Roar and Bulldog Bark to Be Heard at New Haven. Bu Times Special NEW HAVEN, Conn., Nov. 13. There is no roar quite like that of the Princeton Tiger. Neither is there ajiy bark that ) compares with that of the Yale Bull- I dog. The two will be turned loose in the Yale bowl here, Saturday. Both Yale and Princeton have been trimmed this year, but they came back with a vengeance. Penn beat Yale, while Colgate triumphed over Princeton. That Penn Defeat A majority of the football experts i of the East feel that Yale was beaten by Penn because it didn’t take the game seriously. Princeton wasn’t quite ready for which '• boasts an unusualy strong team. In the Penn game, Yale didn't ap- i pear on the field until about two minutes before starting time. Yale did practically no preliminary work, and before the Blue was warmed up to the situation Penn had a lead of two touchdowns. Not until late In the game with defeat staring Old Ell In th© face, did Yale realize th© seriousness of the situation. Too late! The! regulars, even to the stars on the Injured list, were rushed Into the fray. Yale was beaten, 16 to 13. * Both “Come Back*’ Since that defeat Yale has proved what It can do by overwhelming the Army 28 to 7. Princeton also uncovered much of Its strength in defeating downtrodden Harvard 36 to 0. Against the Crimson, Princeton shewed wonderful stuff and Yale appears to be in for a busy as well as strenuous afternoon when they meet. Yale is the favorite, but that doesn’t mean a thing In a year of grid upsets. Will the Tiger be roaring or the Bulldog barking as the shades of night fall on the Yale bowl Saturday?
