Vr IR RlN' Y the DOPE J By VEDDER GARD

iHIO STATE and Illinois no doubt hate all this Hod Grange publicity. Yes they and That big Buckeye stadium won’t be able to hold half the people who want tjo get in to see the most exploited player that over stepped onto a white chalked field. You just can’t keep Red out of the headlines. And, really, what difference does it make if Grange wants to make some money after his' college days are over by playing professional football? What business is it of the busy-bodies who constantly poke into others’ affairs? The money the Illinois flash can make in a few games will give him more than a start in life. It will put him a long way along the road. Go to it, Red, and let the envious ones say what they will. All the fuss is just helping your game. * * * We fell for Oh Susanna Wednesday and she turned us down flat after we spent S6O On her. That's lust like a woman. Otherwise Across the Board did fairly well, but finally wonnd, up $11.25 loser. Fire Boy, another S2O across the board horse, won at short odds. Resonance was second anti paid more than 3 to 1 to place and 3 to 1 Mtshow. Captain Guard, a fifty to one flß>t, ran like the price Indicated. CherryWtr and Kublai Kahn both were third. We start out today with a l|ank roll of $1,005.70. Today to prove that we are not fickle we’ll not Ret “sore” at the way OH SUSANNA treated us Wednesday, but will try again to see If that filly has a heart—slo w-in, place and show. There are some good ones in there to beat, but Oh Susanna can do it if she doesn’t quit. MTTI.F, COOK In the fifth will pay plenty If that geldine can take the measure of Bolton and some other good ones Ten dollars across Is the Investment. SISTER JO6ELLA in the sixth looks I like $25 win. place and show to us. Once more we’ll attempt to spear REPEATER In the last race. He’s old, but decides to run occasionally. Five dollars win, place and show Is the Investment and there won't be anything short about the odds. At Bowie KING SOLOMON’S SEAT, In the fifth is worth a $lO across the hoani nlav riml so is Blvlj'H in tnp sixth P \Ve will also try ass across the hoard parlay on the two of them. Finis. * * * mUST where are you going Saturday? “Habit is a cable. We weave a thread of it each day and at last we can not break it.” Bill Shakespeare said something like tjiat and it may explain to a certain extent where you’ll be. But there are other reasons. Purdue at Indiana, Northwestern at Notre Dame and De Pauw at Wabash—take your choice. But you won’t be long in choosing—not if you are an alumnus of one of the schools. You’ll be watch*g YOUR boys battle. There is no question about'what game you want to witness if you spent your college days at Bloomington or Lafayette or South Bend or Greencastle or Crawfordsville. It is partly habit, but it goes deeper than that. It is also loyalty to the past, to the school that taught you many things in .books, on athletic field and many other ways. * * * How many times have you heard about the Bard of Avon’s sayings being true universally and down through the ages? Here is just another proof: “When shall we three meet again, In thunder, Hghtning or* in rain?” In our day and age and in this hectic football season we can think only of Princeton, Harvard and Yale when we read the above. • • • mHE number of the fourth horse to finish is being posted at the Bowie race meeting. This is rubbing it in as only the first three places are worth anything as far as mutuel tickets are concerned. The custom comes from England and has been advocated by racing publications. In big stake races the fourth horse gets "borne of the purse. However. the public gets nothing. • * * A Here Is the Big Ten football Standing according to the Dickinson rating: Northwestern 22.50 Michigan 22.50 Minnesota 21.25 Wisconsin 19.17 Chicago JBr7s Illinois 16.67 lowa 15.00 Ohio State ...15.00 Purdue 10.00 Indiana 10.00 We told you all about this once before. It is one of the fairest methods of rating the football teams ever devised. It has the approval of many famous coaches. • • • • Wall Street odds make Yale a 2 to 1 favorite over Harvard next Saturday and “futures” on the Army-Navy contest gives the Cadets the edge at 8 to 5. Let’s see, what were the odds last week in the Y'ale-Princeton scrap and the Army-Columbia set-to? Odds don’t always mean so much! • • • mT is rather amazing how comparatively little money is needed to tempt some to stage a piece of crooked work. Jockey Mergler in his confession to it he Kentucky Jockey Club stewWurts stated that he got only *I,OOO for “pulling” Bumpkin in a race a few weeks ago. , For a little “easy” kale that young man killed the goose that laid the golden eggs. What will he do now? He has ruined a career for a few paltry dollars. Those ball players who back in 1919 “threw” the world series did not make fortunes out of their crooked deal. They were tempted with a few thousands while the ones behindfit all cleaned up. In most such Cases which have come to light the ones who take the most chances are the most poorly paid. Men are for sale cheap it seems, ft Is always bargain day for the Jiffs: guns who are behind the

GOPHERS TO SHOW MICHIGAN TRICKS AT OWN PASSING GAME

Coach Spears Plans Aerial Attack for Contest Which May Decide Western Conference Title. Btl Time* Special CHICAGO, Nov- 19.—The dispatches from Minnesota telling how the Gophers expect to wallop Michigan next Saturday at their own game in the air are important because they confirm the suspicion that football of the 1896 variety lies dead and buried on Stagg Field, with Dartmouth’s 33 to 7 epitaph engraved on the tombstone.

That epitaph is the handwriting on the wall and Dr. C. W. Spears, the new coach at Minnesota, apparently is taking cognizance of it. The passing of “Swedess Oberlander for the Big Green on Stagg field made it plain that football coaches should develop throwing arms as well as plunging backs. Coach Spears, his eye on the Big Ten title and the little brown jug now gathering dust in the trophy rooms of the University of Michigan, has been busy ail week trying to develop a football pitcher. lowa’s Defeat It is true that Minnesota tossed lowa into bankruptcy last Saturday by the ancient line-bucking style of play, but it is also true that .the Hawkeyes exhibited no aerial football. Michigan is quite another problem. The Yostmen have the best record of any Big Ten Conference team this year because they are privy to the fact that it is easier to throw a football ten yards than to push it through a thousand or more pounds or flesh and bone. On top of this, Michigan has Bennie Friedman, who knows how to throw a football as well as kick. The weather undoubtedly will be a deciding factor in determining the victor in the Ann Arbor battle this week. If it rains or snows it is quite likely that Friedman's pitching arm will be of little use to the Wolverines, and that they will have to stop the battering Gopher full back, which is quite a job. The Purple Upset That Northwestern victory oveb the Wolverines made a cross-word puzzle out of the Big Ten standing. Northwestern saw visions of a title. If Michigan'wins, Northwestern will argue all winter that the Purple eleven and the Wolverines are tied for the honors. If Minnesota wallops Michigan, the argument will be in minor key and the Gophers will have a clean title to the Big Ten championship
