Sffliiiiiniiiiiiuiiiiiin^ TIRRIN’ the DOPE By VEDDER GARD

SHE larger schools of the Middle West and Far West, for some reason or other, have gotten away from the Thanksgiving day college football games. Perhaps they are more hearty eaters than the East and South. Notre Dame at Nebraska Is an Important battle between western clubs. There are several Missouri valley conference games. Mercer is at Marquette in an intersectional game, and Bucknell it at Detroit. In the East, Cornell at Pennsylvania. Penn State at Pittsburgh, Syracuse at CoThmiba, Colgate at Brown, Washington and Jefferson at West Virginia are features. In the South, Georgia at Alabama is the headliner. Tulane, rated as one of the best clubs in the country, plays Centenary at Shreveport. * * * O : ACROSS THE BOARD TODAY : O Our hunch watt rlrht and we lost a little money on Monday. Only three horse* went to the post. Vie wai third at odds of ato 1 to show. Gamble and Ka-ndrae were also runs. Ten Sixty and Kin* Soloman’s Seal were withdrawn. Bowie Is the only track In operation Hfcatn today. The fields are larjre and _ the picking tough, so beware. We will gplay BLOXDIN SIO across in the third H*aee. The same goes on 1.1 El TENANT *ll In the fourth if Opperman is scratehed. Otherwise the wager is off. BLACK BART gets the play in the fifth. The colt must beat Saratoga Male. Five dollars across is enough on that one’s chances. OPPERMAN probably will face the barrier in the sixth although the Bed well gelding is entered in the fourth also Twenty dollars win, place and show In the Investment if the horse goes in the sixth. In the last, DRUMBEAT, a one-eyed horse with four good legs, will he played #lO across flame Fortune adopt us as one of your children! * * * ■——IRS. MALAPROP was down V/T to see us today. She came Into the office about 11 a. m. and said she couldn’t understand how it could be 12 o’clock already; that she had started down-town at 10:30. We told her It was only 11, but she insisted that a big clock she could see without her glasses on Kentucky Ave., right at Washington and Illinois Sts., pointed to noon. Underneath the clock were the words Community Fund. When we got her straight on that point she inquired who Red Grange was. When she asked if he belonged to the Klan we were astonished, but light broke through when Mrs. Malaprop said she saw in the newspapers where he was a galloping ghost. * • • Marks seems to be of some consequence in the Big Ten. Marks was the captain and star of the Indiana U. football team this season. Next year Wally Marks will lead the Maroons into B battle on the grid. The Marks seem to make the grade, p* * * N*“ lO one can think up more alibis than the amateur . i J football teams. Note after note comes into this office stating that “our opponents out-weighed us umpty-umph pounds a man” and “the referee beat us,” and so forth and so on. We wonder sometimes if some of these young men are learning the greatest lesson of sport—how to lose. Surely on some occasions the winning team must be a little better than the loser. * * * There’s one good thing about basketball. Rain never spoils a game unless the roof leaks. It takes an earthquake or eyeline to stop the great indoor net sport.

Mi' - “ IR. RABBIT, If he is wise, had better hunt his hole -and stay there the rest of this week —especially on Thanksgiving Day. Those who never hunt during the remaining 364 days in the year become nimrods for a day at this time. The stores which sell ammunition and other hunters’ supplies are ready foj the grand rush on Wednesday afternoon. They sell more on that day than in all the rest of the year put together. * * * This may be one of those old (ones but we "bit” the other day. One of our friends (he Is no longer) came rushing in and exclaimed, “There lias been a robbery at Meridian and Ohio Sts.” “What and who?” we queried. "Somebody stole the ‘Change’ out of the Stop and Go sign.” • * mT seems as though every htgh school basketball coach in Indiana has some new idea about a score book. The latest one is put out by S. H. Leitzman of La Porte. It has four diagrams of the playing floor, one for each team for each half. The idea is to keep track of the shots by marking the number of the player at the exact spot on the court he shoots at the basket. If he makes it a ring is drawn around the figure. * * * RIGHT here and now, before we change our mind —NeL_J braska looks like a surprise winner over Notre Dame. The Huskers, according to accounts, are in the best shape of the season. On the other hand, if reports are to be believed, Flanagan and Enright, two of Notre* Dame’s best, are out of the fray. With the two back field stars in shape we’d say “Notre Dame.” i With them out it looks as though the edge must be given to the Lincoln (Neb.) outfit in the Thanksgiving day battle. • * • It VPW things do change! What lI—I Ia difference just a few I * A l weeks make! There was a time when the Army-Navy game next Saturday was considered a slaughter of the innocents by the big Cadets. Now, would you believe it, the Midshipmen are being made favorites in some instances. Wall Street is swinging over to the under-gob. The Gotham “experts” probably got enough of Yale and look for more upsets to make It unanimous for the season.

CITY HIGH SCHOOL TITLE AT STAKE IN TECH-MANUAL GRID FRAY

EMERSON HAS FINE MACHINE Veenker’s H. $. Team Has Not Lost State Game in Five Years. By Dick Miller Times Staff Correspondent GARY, Ind., Nov. 24.—Emerson High School of Gary defeated South Bend High School here Saturday and closed its fifth season without a defeat by an Indiana high school. Until the South Bend touchdown the locals had not been scored on this year. Along with Mishawaka, Tech of Indianapolis, Linton and Jasonville High Schools, the locals stand claimants to the State interscholastic title, which never will be further settled, except for the last two teams, which meet at Jasonville Turkey day. ■ Coach George Veenker stands today the wonder man of high school football. Each year teams over the State have lived in hopes that graduations might wreck the Emerson squad, but not so. Veenker always has men necessary to step into the shoes of the departed stars, and the Golden Tornadoes, as they are called here, thunder on. Obervation of the Emerson team year in and year out, disclosed one fact, and that is fundamentals are well mastered by every man on the squad. When the crisis is reached and the play that demands quick thought and the right action, Emerson usually pulls the game out, because it can do the required thing at that time. In seven games against Indiana schools this year Veenker’s men have scored 147 points to six for the opposition. Teams defeated were Sheridan, Elwood, Manual of Indianapolis, Wabash, Goshen, Froebel of Gary and Souih Bend. The game with Hammond was called off by the Hammond management when the park was flooded. Joe Shay, Eisner, Avery, Wood and E. Hughes have been matyistays of 'the team this year.

COLLEGE GAME UNHURT BY GRANGE INCIDENT Zuppke Says Amateur Football Will Go Forward as Usual —Would Welcome Another Like Him. Bu United Press CHAMPAIGN, 111., Nov. 24.—“1 and welcome another Red Grange on my football team, but I doubt if there ever will be another SIOO,OOO player,’’ Coach Bob Zuppke declared today as the famous sorrel-topped grid Hash became a myth to amateur athletics.

“Grange was a wonder and he is deserving all the honor and glory he can find,” Zuppke said in an interview with the United Press. “But let me add this —our Illinois team was not a one-man machine. Grange was just one of the eleven players and if I could find another such sterling athlete and modest gentleman, I would welcome him on my squad.” Denies Casting Rebuke Zuppke was questioned about a statement he made Monday night at the annual University of Illinois football banquet when Grange and the other varsity players were awarded their letters. “There will never be another SIOO,OOO player on my team,” he said at the banquet, and his statement was interpreted as a rebuke to Grange for turning professional. Red_ himself, left the banquet with that impression. “Oh, no, I didn’t mean that,” Zuppke said today. "What I meant was that it would be a long time before another player of Grange’s ability came to college. If one shows up I’d like to have him at Illinois. No Menace, He Says “What I had in mind was the roar against professional football. Some people have said Grange’s action would prove a menace to the college sport and to amateur athletics in general. “What 1 contend is that there will be no such menace unless we having nothing but Red Granges in our colleges and when I said ‘there will be no other SIOO,OOO players on my team,’ I meant to shew that amateur sport were not in danger of being wrecked. Red left the banquet before it was over, mumbling his regrets at leaving the university, but declaring that he would not change his mind. His famous number “77” will he preserved as a university trophy with other football emblems and never will be awarded to another Illinois player.

Green and White Team Favorite Against South Side Football Rivals. One of the best games of the local prep season is looked for Wednesday when Technical and A\anual clash at Irwin Field, 2 p. m., in the decisive contest of the public high school city football series. The edge is given Tech by the dopesters, but the Eastsiders probably will find plenty of opposition. Victor Is Champ Manual and Tech have defeated Shortridge and the winner of Wednesday’s game will be declared the champion. The Green and White of Tech this fall has not lowered by a State opponent. Coach Mueller has one of the best teams ever to represent Tech. There is no wonder that the rooters from that institution are confident. There is one man especially on t-he Manual squad who may stand in the way of a Technical victoryCaptain Higgs is in shape again and that youth throws a mean forward pass. He is likely to be Manual's greatest threat. It is generally conceded that the Tech line is more powerful thaji the South Side forward wall. Soutli Siders Ready Manual is reported in the best condition of the year and is confident, despite Tech’s fine record. All the trimmings that go to make the annual tussle a feature affair will be present. Bands of both schools will strut their stuff. A crowd of from 5,000 to 6,000 is expected to pack Irwin field. Both teams held light workouts today, and no chances were taken of any lost minute injuries. In the games between the two schools In the last five years. Tech has won three games and Manual has been victor in one. Another contest ended scorless.

LOCAL BOUTS Merle Alte Stops Pence — Other Monday Results. Only one of the ten-round feature bouts on the Washington A. C. show at Tomlinson Hall -Monday night supplied the fans with a proper kick, three being rather slow. Merle Alte. 121, Indianapolis, knocked out Copper Pence, 123, Cincinnati, in the sixth round after scoring knockdowns previously. The Copper danced around like a willing mixer and went into Alte several times, but finally became too willing and Alte flattened him. Alte appears to be about the only member of the local younger fistic colony capable of delivering a haymaker. This scrap, while it lasted, was the best of the evening. In the “added attraction,” a fourround prelim between Shorty Burch, the megaphone kid, and Shorty Holderman of the city hall, the fans got plenty of laughs. The two “Shorties” flayed gloves wildly and were winded at the finish. It was a draw. Burch jumped on Holdtrnians left foot in the first stanza, and after that Holderman was a “step and a half.” Louie La veil, 136, Anderson, outpointed Fatsy Kline, 138%, Cincinnati, in ten rounds; Happy Atherton, 113, Intyanapolis, outpointed Jimmy McDernjott, 115, Terre Haute, in ten rounds, and Kewple Trimble, 130, Chicago, outpointed Joe Lockhart, 138, Evansville, in ten rounds. Trimble and Lockhart were good at times. McDermott and Kline were on the run most of the way, flashing only occasionally.
