Surely not many thought of the toil and perseverance necessary to string those telegraph lines across mountains and swamps—the actual physical liardsliips attached to the task of bringing Philadelphia and its ring “just across the [ptreet.” Probably we wouldn't have thought of this rather sentimental side of it, either. But not so long before, we had climbed th© mountains, barriers which man had conquered; had come over nearly bottomless roads through the lowlands of Georgia; hafl witnessed the ocaen In angry mood dashing against the sea wall. It is at such times that one realizes the power of Mother Nature and does not call her mother, but most everything else. The old daitie is very stubborn at times. Most of man’s achievements are won despite her protests. She gives up her secrets and treasures reluctantly. That is the real “battle of the century”—of the ages. More or less disguised by the veneer of civilization, the struggle for existence goes on forever. All of us are in the fight in some manner or form. That is why from Maine to Florida and from New York to San Francisco thousands listened to the returns of the Dempsey-Tunney tight or bought papers eagerly.

outcome of the game because Remarks the fourth meeting between Jimmy Phelan, Purdue coach, and “Navy Bill” Ingram, football head at the and former Indiana football tutor. Teams coached by Phelan and Ingram have met three times, with a victory apiece and a scoreless tie recorded. So the outcome of the

Middies’ playing field Saturday. While indications point to Phelan using at least several sophomore men in his line-up against the Navy, he is placing much reliance on the performance of two able veterans, Capt.

Football Reviews

By Dick Miller, Indianapolis Times Staff Corropondent. iRANKLIN, Ind., Sept. 28. The Franklin College footi— J ball situation la a typical one. Tho old bugbear of a lack of material again Is present. And this year the condition ’seems worse than in previous seasons. With only nineteen men on the varsity It begins to look us though the Baptist school needs plenty of old from Dutne Fortune. Coach Edward Duggan, old Notre Dame star, has gone through some harrowing experiences at the helm of the Franklin grid teams. Eddie Is rather accustomed to them, but hardly has he ever been up against the situation us tt is tills year. Duggan, has one team and part of another, not the usual first team and a ooupie of fair reserve teams. Saturday against Indiana Central, there were Just four back field men on deok. Os course these four were pretty sweet ones, but, oh, how a ooaeh does sit on needles and pins when big opposition begins to slaughter little back field men. Reserves fire indlsponsible In the modern grid game. • * • LAST year graduation took Payne and Buck Rohrabaugh, center; Red Rohrabaugh, full hack! Burns, guarrf, and Worthon, tackle, of the regular team. In 1925 there was a good looking freshman team at Franklin. Several of thaU good freshman team were expected back, but more than half of them failed to return. Three of the best reserves last year, Ilart, Fisher and Relntjes, failed to appear, The two former are Ineligible. Some possibility exists that Oas, of Minneapolis, will straggle In soon. He accompanied Ills family back to Sweden thla summer and Is not back in tho country yet. If ha does It. will be a. big help. Humpsher, at guard and Chapin, at quarter back, Rre the only two regulars back. Lyons of the reserve last year is filling an end ]>ost, Rahke, a half back; King, a tackle; Clemmons, an end, and Sapp, a guard. Os the 1925 freshman squad Stowers and Connemacker are ends; Reid and Easter, tackles; Carlo, Kincaid and Sanders, guards; Dugan and WWedon, centers; Skinner, lineman: Scott, Weaver and O’Brien, half hacks. That’s alj of them. • * * | HAT can Franklin do with its present football schedule, and What can she do with her future schedule? Will or will not Franklin ask for the freshman rule at the next meeting of the Indiana college conference this winter? In all probability they will. With the present small football squad on hand and with the new freshman coach.Taul Payne, having a hard time finding enough aspirants to get up a team to play the verily 'n scrimmage, future football under the "freshmen barred” rule at Franklin looks none too rosy.* The 39 to 6 victory over Indiana Central needs explanation to satisfy the public mind on what has already been said In this story. First of all. the regular team at Franklin is a

good one. Chapin, O’Brien, Rahke and Scott are a nifty set of ball carriers. They started fast and had Indiana Central on the run. When the half ended the score was 33-0. Coach George of Central, whipped his team Into line between halves, and when O’Brien was injured, and after sub stltutes, were In the game, the Franklin parade stopped. Duggan withdrew the subs when Central became dangerous. The regulars were not able to stop the drive of the boys from Indianapolis suburban college, and as a result, Central drove on to a touchdown. The Franklin team added another score and was done for the day. The latter part of the game was in Central's favor. • • • BYONS Is a rangy, shifty end, one who Is adept at snagging forward passes. He Is a good defensive player and Duggan has no worries in selecting the player for that position. Clemmons and Connemacher are staging a battle for the other wing job. ' King, a veteran tackle, has things his own way on the job, but Easter and Reed are contesting for the oth er tackle place. Duggan has more good guards than anything else. Saturday' he used one of them In tho back field. Kincaid, a former Sheridan -High School player and a selection for all- j State Interscholastic team place, is the best bet to fill tho place as teammate to Humpsher, a veteran. Carbo is another fine player. Sanders and Sapp make good reserves. Probably Duggan will make a tackle out of one of them. Duggan, a sopho more, is the new center. Os course, he has a job to fill Buck Rohrabaugh’s place. Weedon is the next man for the place and there are no thirds or fourths in *tho battle. The back field is a pony one, all small and fast. Chapin is a heady field general, one whp keeps the team battling and one who will probably got-all out of the players they have. He knows the game and executes It. He is a clever runner and accurate passer. ' ' * RAHKE Is a sterling runner, fair passer and kicker. v He L. .J is not as strong on defense as Weaver and Scott. O’Brien seems to be the leading contender for'the full back place. That Is the “low down” on the Franklin 1926 grid team. When asked what he thought about the 1926 schedule, Duggan merely looked | and laughed. The student body at Franklin is made up of 350 students and two-thirds of them are girls. However, Duggan insists the real stars sometimes never saw a football until they entared college. He cites Reid as one of his best prospects. Reid donned a suit last year and asked the coach where the end position he was sent In to fill was located. When % the new player was told to step the .varsity runs around his way, he did so In such a manner that they began to fear to come that way. Few however are like Mm at Franklin. That's why. It is probable that Franklin will ask to be allowed to play freshmen in 1i27. It seems to be the salvation of future Franklin athletics.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Farrell Believes St. Louis Has Advantage Behind Bat and on Mound. * | By Henry L. Farrell, United Press Sports Editor. NEW YORK, Sept. 28.—Since the days when the champion Chicago White Sox were the hitless wonders, through successive years to the Brooklyn Robins of 1920 and until the era of the lively ball, th© Importance of a battery was folly realized. N Even through the mad home run days of the “rabbit ball” tho spectators at a ball game were Interested chiefly In—"Who’e going to pitch ?" Now that some of the life has been taken out of the ball, the battery strength of busebnll teams has gained In Importance and In the coming series when two slugging teams are to battle for the rich prize, the comparative strength of the batteries is of vital Importance. The catchers can be disposed of easily. With Bob O’Farrell working behind the plate for the Bt. Louis Cardinals, the National League champions will be fortified much stronger than the Yankees. O’Farrell Valuable O’Farrell worked in 146 games for the Cards during regular season, and there la no doubt that he will be able to last through the series. | The Yankees will have to depend upon old Hank Severeld, who Is a good mechanical catcher, but not a | star. Benny Bengough had a weak I arm all season that finally was ! broken in Cleveland. Pat Collins has | a terrible throwing 'arm, and when I he began to lose games the Yankees j claimed Bevereld on waivers from Washington. 1 Behind thebbaa most vital spot —the Cards will be at least 75 per [cent stronger than tho Yankees. ! Both teams have good pitchers, but St. Louis has more good pitchers j than the Yankees have, and while the Yiyikees have good reserve pitchers, they may have to be used oftener. More Good Ones In Haines, Rhem, Reinhart, Alexander and Sherdel, the St. club ha3 a more dependable staff St pitchers than the Yankees have in Pennock, Shocker, Ruether, Hoyt, Jones and Shawkey. Miller Huggins always has been strong on pitching strength and he would have had his favorite “five star” staff this year If Hoyt’s hito i had not gone bad. If Jones had not | disappointed and If Shawkey had not | been Injured. As It now stands the Yankees! have only two dependable pitchers. : Pennock and Shocker, but Dutch ! Rueth-r may prove to be the man of the hour. For some reason Bucky Harris wouldn't use him for Washington In the series last year and towards the tail of tho season this year he asked waivers on him. Huggins grabbed him and he may use him in the series. Ruether May Pitch Ruether, one of the best pitchere In the game. Is on the threshold headed toward the minors and he certainly ought to have sufficient Inducement to work If he is called upon to pitch. Rogers Hornsby is much better off with Haines, Rhem. Alexander and Sherdel. Alexander's average doesn’t look as inspiring as the others but with Bob O'Farrell catching him ho may prove to be the horo of the series. Chicago released Alex because h# was hard to handle and BtirKlllefer, Hornsby's assistant, urged that the veteran he brought to St. Louis. Ho Immediately started to win. Figures amount to very little in a world’s series—as Roger Pecklnpaugh showed last year against Pittsburgh—hut the figures give the Cards a very sizeable margin on tho Yankees in battery strength.

run true to form this year, he would he the outstanding selection. Last season Jim was runnerup to his manager, Rogers Hornsby, for the National League batting championship. Bottomloy, duo largely to illness, has been in a batting slump much of the yoar. Bottomley bats and throws lefthanded. Clever In the field, he always has excelled at the bat. He takes a healthy cut at the hall and has a leaning toward extra-base hits. Lou Gehrig, who supplanted Walter Pipp at first barfe for New York, is a youngster who improves with every game. Like Bottomley. he throws and bats left handed. Measuring better than six feet and weighing close to 200 pounds, ho gets great distance to his drives, rivaling the deeds of Babe Kuth In that respect. A capable fielder, Gehrig is Inclined to be a trifle erratic at times, unquestionably due to a lack of experience, for Gehrig has been playing in the majors only a very few years. At the bat Gehrig is much feared. He has broken up many a ball game this year through one of his long drives. ,lie's a fighter, who keeps on trying, no matter how tough things break. But I give Bottrmley of the Cards an edge over Oehring of the Yan-j kees in comparing tho world's scries tirst-sackers.

HALL IS CROWDED AT SHOW Indoor Boxing Season Opens —Wiggins Beats Chief in Rough Bout. The indoor boxing season opened at Tomlinson Hall on Monday night with plenty of gloves flying. It was a rip-roaring fistic show and the place was packed, even standing room being at a premium. In the main attraction Chuck Wiggins, Indianapolis heavyweight, outpointed Chief John Metoquah over the ten-round distance In a scrap that had the fans dizzy. Chuck lived up to his promise to l>e in shape and he outboxed his opponent In a rough contest. Wiggins appeared to be entitled to five rounds, Metoquah two and three sessiohs looked even. In the semi-wind-up Jim Mahoney, Chicago, decisively outpointed George Mulholland, Indianapolis, In eight •rounds. Mulholland was knocked down several times, but displayed gamenqss and went the limit. The visitor was fast, and clever at long range.

The program was promoted by the National A. C. Joe Jacobs was the matchmaker. It was one of the best glove cards ever staged In Indianapolis and vicinity.
