Football Reviews

By Dick Miller Times Stall Correspondent IRAWFORDSVILLL, I nrt., Sept, 25.—The guy who mon- - ickered the Wabash College grid teams “The Little Giants” years ago had a foresight of 1926. That’s the way the forty candidates struck the ldsas of the writer, when he watched them working out. They are little giants if you want to call them that, but manjr of them are husky, towering around the six foot mark and ranging In weight from 180 to 225, that is, the linemen. Os course the back field men are smaller, but that’s where the "Little Giant” stuff originates. Pete Vaughan, In Pete’s casual way, says: “Oh, we got a little,” smiles and adds, “but they’re green.” Os course we gathered, he was talking about the new men who graduated from the Freshman squad to the varsity this year. No mention was made by the sterling mentor about the seventeen letter men he has back from last year’s squad. He didn’t add that most of these men he has from the freshy squad of 1925 were able to out play the regulars last year. We gathered that Pete meant they were green in experience. • • . * APTAIN WEBER is the right end. Now when you are eap- ■■■ -J tain it is generally considered you are set for a job, and Weber Is a star, and is a popular leader, but McClain, another letter man, is back, and he plays the same end as Weber. They are regarded to be about equal on playing merits, and for that reason Weber is set at his job. Viner, another letter rrlan, is choice for the other wing job, and what a feeling Pete must have when he figures McClain on the bench and an array of reserve talent on the bench that reads: Alexander, Latimer, Remley, Wallace, Chilcott, McDowell, Thornburg, Collins and Mr Corklq, Now the last tweft named are just about as good as anything Pete has and they are sophomores. It would not surprise many to see both of them in the fray aften, as they know end play. Tackles are not so abundant, but of the lot of five, three are letter men. Deßard and Cheyney look best to start, with Loer close in. March is a big boy who has all the earmarks of a real star. Morganthaller is another good sophomore candidate. The same condition presents its self as the guard positions are looked over. Painter, an All-State player, is back and that settles one place. McCorkle, out with injuries- at this time, is the other choice it would seem. Carter, another letter man, will take his place if he can beat out Taylor, a graduate from the squad. Zollner, a former Tech High School player, is another real candidate. Berkey, who played at Warsaw High School, is a luminary and McMasters is also looking good. The guard situation looks mighty sweet to the writer and probably Pete feels the same way. • • • jw*• JEKOEk, a veteran, is back at i X I oenter 'I l*’ 9 any news ' ' the man who sets on the bench as reserve is a letter man named Mulharger. Kimes, a man who made them work while on the freshman team last year, is also trying for the berth, and that position also looks rosy from the Wabash standpoint. The defense and line, as a whole, looks mighty fine, -with letter men, two or more of them, for every position. ' The general weight of the line would strike about 180 or more average, it would seem. With such teams as Butler, Do Pauw, Purdue, Minnesota and Illinois on the schedule, it will take all the squad for reserve, but when Pete and Harry Scholler scheduled those games they probably knew what they were doing. ' At quarter back, one finds a pair of letter men. Prall, who it would s°em will direct the destinies of the Scarlet, is playing his best ball. Geraldaeu Is also going better, and of the two boys who came onto the varsity this year, Spoerner and Casey, the former has the earmarks o? being the best field general. Both these players probably will get plenty of work in the minor games on the schedule. There Is a bitter fight waged for the full back job. Meyers and McDougall, both letter men, are the contestants. The battle is a toss-up, and with the opposition to be met, it might be said they probably will see about an even amount of service. Bower, a star In high school, and who played good ball last year, Is the third man. • * • of the six half backs are I | j letter men. Parr, a choice of I- -I many for all-State berth, Is at one position. Helm is at the other. Both these men can pass, run and tackle. While they make the back field average about 160, they are not the husky, rugged type, and therein appetffs the only weak point In the Wabash team. Bayer is a strong reserve man. His punting it of such caliber that it will he hard to keep him on the bench. He can run the ball. Frank Reese, former Notre Dame star, is serving his second season at the Scarlet school as back field coach. Pete is handling the line. Reese has three other men who appear good hack field talent, Pease, Coffel and Graham. There is no folly in the statement that Wabash has a good looking array of talent for the 1926 football team.

OWNIE BUSH’S TRIBESMEN WIND UP THEIR SCHEDULE SUNDAY

Double-Header With Millers Tomorrow Closes Season —No Games Today.

Today’s double-header between Millers and Indians was called off because of wet grounds and cold weather and the teams wijl close the series and season with a twin bill at Washington Park Sunday, first fray at 2 p. m. It is believed Manager Bush will use Danny Boone on the Tribe mound in one of the Sunday games. Other hurlers ready for actldh are Henry, Burnell, Wisner and Faetli. The Bushmen were In second place this morning as a result of beating Minneapolis in the series opener Friday, 1 to 0, while Milwaukee was losing at Toledo. The Tribe this morn-, Ing was leading the Brewers by onehalf game. Boone is the youth purchased from Terre Haute. He beat the Saints the other day and fanned eight men, and previous to that he lost a tough contest to Kansas City, 1 to 0. Fard Schupp, southpaw, hurled In brilliant fashion Friday and held the Millers to four hits. He struck out four and walked only one. In seven of the nine innings only three men faced Ferd. The Millers’ only serious scoring threat was In the second stanza. It was great pitching and Schupp richly deserved the shutout. Dumont was solved for nine hits by the Indians, but they found him deceptive in the pinches, and ten Tribesmen were left on base. The only run of the fracas came in the first inning when Matthews tripled to the right field corner and scored on Russell's long fly after Sicking had been retired. Matty had a good day with the stick, getting three hits. / Both teams played a strong defensive game Friday. The Indians have a burning desire to finish the race ahead of Milwaukee and will strive hard to capture the series from Minneapolis. Mike Kelly, manager of the Millers. is not with the team and the squad is in charge of Red Corriden. Kelley is in a Louisville hospital as a result of being struck by an automobile a few days ago. He is badly battered up. One leg was broken and he received internal injuries.

NO DEFINITE PLAN FOR NEXT HEAVY TITLE GO

Tex Rickard Says It Will Take Time —Munn and Persson May Be'Built Up.’

N By Henry L. Farrell, United Press Staff Correspondent NEWj YORK, Sept. 25. No definite plans have been made or even discussed by any of the Interested parties for another heavyweight championship bout. Despite rumors to the contrary, Tex Rickard told the writer in Philadelphia Friday night that he had not made a match between Gene Tunney, the new champion, and Harry Wills, or that he had not made any moves to get Jack Dempsey a return bout for the title. “I've enough to occupy my mind for another month clearing up the after details of this fight. Os course I want to stage another heavyweight bout, but it takes more than a day, a month or six months to make and put over these big shows. I haven't any definite plans, but I’ll make a match with Tunney against any fighter I think the public will be Interested In,” Rickard sail. Opposes Mixed Bout He would not commit himself definitely, but he gave a very strong intimation he had not changed his opinion that a mixed bout ‘Tor the title could not he arranged. "Those who told me a DempseyTunney contest would not drajv fnoney and that a Dempsey-Wills match was the only card certainly can’t get around the figures that I can show now,” he said. It’s a cinch Tunney will take his tlipe about meeting a dangerous opponent and if there is to be another big heavyweight match within a reasonable time there is a strong possibilty that it will be between Dempsey and Wills in Tia Juana this winter. ' Tunney will be pestered as much

"But I am going to be an active champion. , “ J cyst at this moment, I have no plans for the Immediate future and I think the public will agree that I am entitled to a few days rest before I consider offers." Tunney denied he ever said he had drawn the color line, and added: “I will fight any man iff the world.”

Nine of the thirteen high average shooters of this State attended tha Grand American tournament at Dayton this year. Statistics on leading Indiana trapshooters:

as Dempsey was by challengers and boxing commissioners and he hasn’t any opponent that would draw any kind of a a money house excepting Wills. - m Two Fine Prospects Rickard had two fine prospects on the Philadelphia, prelim card that he is building (up for the future — Monte Munn and Harry Persson, and after the way he worked up Luis Flrpo, it is possible that in another year either one of the pair will be a card for a championship fight. There are many good judges of boxing who think Munn could give Turney the fight of his life right now. Rickard intimates there isn’t much of a chance for a return bout be tween Tunney and Dempsey becai.se Dempsey was too badly beaten. Tunney has an astute manager in Billy Gibson, who made a fortuno for Benny Leonard before he retired as the lightweight champion, but it is doubtful that he can make as much money for Tunney as Dempsey got out of the title. While he -has not committed himself definitely it can be taken almost as a certainty that Dempsey will not retire, apd although he is an ex-champion, he will remain one of the biggest drawing cards in the game.

IT’S ALL OVER IN NATIONAL

St. Louis to Meet American League Winner in World’s Series. Rtl United Press NEW YORK, Sept. 24—Rogers Hornsby and his crack crew of Cardinals from St. Louis were on top of the heap today. Beating the Giants while the Reds suffered defeat, the Cards won their first pennant Friday and earned a chance to face, probably the Yankees. for the championship of' the baseball world. The victory climaxed the most closely contested race the old major circuit ever has known. The contest was so hot that at one time any one of six clubs could have stepped out In front. A couple of ex sandlotters. one of whom John McGraw appraised as "not strong enough” for his team last spring when he traded him to the Cards, showed the veteran how strong they were and led the Card sluggers to victory from a three-run handicap Friday.! The heroes were George Toporcer, who never got a chance In his hbme town, and Billy Southworth, former Giant outfielder. The Cards were so happy today It was whispered Rogers was going to hire an aggregation of croquet players to go down to Cincinnati to play The closing game of the season with the Reds, who lost all chances when they dropped one game of a double bill at Philly Friday. Hornsby wants to save his regulars for the series. That’s where .his mind is now. There has been a sell-out of seats for the Reds’ game Sunday, for it has looked for some time that it would he the deciding game of the season, with the pennant going the winner of the last day’s tilt.

Major “Slap-em-over” Hoople decorated the slab for the Whoopsmydears. His double shoot was working like a charm that day. And What’s Tills? And who do you suppose won that game? Well, well, well! Surely all of you who ever perused a sporting page know that Major Hoople, In the fortieth inning of that famous contest crashed the sperold far over the heads of aU four center fielders —McGraw had to use four of them that day. And what do you suppose the umpire said? Why he called Major Hoople out because he had knocked the ball over the center fielders’ heads. The decision was unprecedented and Wayhasset still talks to this day about that umpire. But what could Hoople do? Egad, the sable shades of night were descending rapidly. He knew his mates would not be ible to see tne balls the Orioles would bat at them. . Ready for the Crisis In this crisis his strategy won. He fooled the umpire completely by throwing the ball to the first baseman instead of to the catcher as each succeeding Oriole came to bat. The plunk of the first baseman's glove deceived the arbiter, and he called three Orioles out on strikes. In the forty-first inning Major Hoople laid down a perfect bunt for three bases and stole home. It was the year after that, if the records are correct, that Major Hoople took to sport-writing. Since then he has covered every important contest in the world. You will recall him, ahem, as the former sports editor of the Bombay India Relsh. He Never Misses His recent stories on the DemriseyTunney fight were the most illuminating any sport scribe sent out. Did he ilick the winner? He didn’t miss. If you doubt it, consult the files. Now he’s going to the World Series. As an old baseball player himself he will be able to shed a peculiar luster all his own on the events of the series. Restrain yourselves, gentlemen. The first of his dispatches will be forthcoming anon. In fact the Major is expected to have ground out a bunch of whoppers by next Thursday. m
