PURDUE AT NAVY FEATURES INDIANA COLLEGE ACTIVITY SATURDAY
Hanover at Butler—lndiana |l U. and Notre Dame Open Grid Schedules. By William J. Dunn United Press Staff Writer With Purdue playing Navy at Annapolis, Beloit, invading Notre Dame and De Pauw meeting the Indiana U.' eleven at Bloomington, the last of the Indiana State college football teams will swing into action Saturday. The majority of the State college elevens opened their seasons last week, but under Western Conference rules Indiana and Purdue were forced to suspend activities for a week. Notre Dame, although not a member, follows Big Ten regulations. Few upsets are expected, as the practice season is hardly over and most of the teams are meeting schools decidedly weaker. Several good games are probable, among which are the De Pauw-In-diana, Purdue-Navy, Bose Poly3eorgetown and Vincennes-Danville Alts. De Pauw at I. U. Indiana, under the tutelage of Pat Page, is expected to trim the De Pauw Tigers, but Coach Hughes at the Methodist school has been working his men hard during the past few weeks and is expected to give the Crimson eleven a battle. Critics concede the Tigers only an outside fance, however. Navy is the general choice to trim trdue, but Jimmy Phelan refuses to concede anything. He has l’.is men in good condition and feels he can give the Midshipmen a real battle —one of tlie best early season tills on the program. ! Bose Poly and Georgetown College of Kentucky, look to be evenly matched as do Vincennes and Danville Normal. Danville is conceded a slight edge over the Vincennes eleven on the strength of the battle given De Pauw last week. Looks Easy Notre Dame is expected to have a very easy time with Beloit as Rockne, with a veteran aggregation, lias succeeded in making the sport world believe he has another great eleven this year. The Irish only toppled Beloit 19-3 after a hard battle last year, but are expected to bo able to determine their own score Saturday. Butler looks like a sure winner over Hanover since the 38-to-0 victory over Earlham last Saturday. Hanover is expected to put up a battle, however, and the Bulldogs are not expected to run up as large a score. Indiana Central and Oakland City are due for a great scrap, critics believe. Both appear in good condition and the odds will be only slightly in favor of the Indianapolis school. Earlhain-Cedarville Earlham will attempt to make up for their decisive defeat at the hands of Butler in the season’s inaugural clash by whipping the Cedarville ■even. The Earihamites have been Prorkihg hard sineg" their first game and feel they profited by their defeat. W'abash and Mancie Normal tangle at Wabash and the Little Giants should win easily if they are as strong n- *' y appeared against Evansville t^.urday. Manchester College, with a green team, will go to Defiance, Ohio, for a game and critics feel that they have little chance of bringing home a Hoosier victory.

Football Reviews
By Dick Miller, Indianapolis Times Staff Correspondent. OAFAYETTE, Ind., Oct. I. Coach James Phelan, accompanied by thirty-five of his Boilermaker football team, boarded the rattler here Thursday for Annapolis, Md., where on Saturday the first of the present year intersectional football battles between East and West will be fought with the Navy team. It might be said that Jimmy is going East to experimen. The Purdue line is green, and if there are any regulars, save in one or two cosi tions, we failed to see them while watching the last practice session here Wednesday. That will be experiment No. 1. Phelan teaches a. brand of sensational football, and ' e has had in mind ever since th' scheduling of Navy to startle the bojs, or, at least, make them rub their eyes. This is very likely to happen when Purdue struts out onto Farragut field. The Pheianites will be all dressed up, in their new airplane cloth pants. Those New I’ants The new type of pants, being used for the first time in football, is an Innovation of Jay Wyatt, State manager of the school and college department of A. G. Spalding Company. Wyatt, Phelan and Athletic Director Nelson Kellogg met at Lafayette last spring and out of the conference grew the idea of Purdue’s startling football regalia. With a golden, silken glaze, contrasted to the solid black socks, the gold stripped jerseys and the gold head gears with black stripes, the Boilermakers formed a dazzling appearance as they went through their final dress rehearsal Wednesday. Those uniforms will knock the easterners’ eyes out. Os course, there is a business idea in the new cloth. Wyatt says ttie airplane cloth, dipped in rubber, is water-proof and considerable lighter than canvas. If the breeches prove durable, then the Purdue team- can be expected to put on speed that will make the Navy team hustle. That’s experiment No. 2. Back Field Good The Purdue back field is no experiment. Smiley and Seidel, at quarter back position, Leichtle and Wilcox at half back posts and Veteran Gladders at fpll back, present a splendid combination. Wilcox -was about the best thing that trotted on Hoosier grididons in 1925, and that was his first year of varsity competition. Coach Phelan says he is the greatest in the West today. “Cotton,” as he is known to every Purdue stu dent, can run, gallop, smash or anything else you might call it, to advance the ball personally. In 1925 he averaged seven yards for every personal effort expended. Then he can kick, and that includes punt, drop and place. He can pass and receive them, too. Is there anything he can’t do? Left, end on the Boilermakers Is held down by the versatile Tom Hogan, captain of the team. Tom is a great player, a bear for punishment, a great receiver of passes and a demon tackier. Passes to Hogan The Purdue back field combination, with its passing attack, will no doubt shoot many a spiral to the galloping Hogan. There, in the opinion of Hie writer, lies Purdue’3 fchances to score on the Navy. On the other wing, Stillwell, a former Shortridge School star, is a clever end. He is leading the other aspirants at present for the post. Hutton, another Indianapolis boy and former Manual star, is looming as a contender for the same place. Hutton and Greicus are just a shade better than Malone, Mackle and Sindelar, so the battle for end positions is a peach. Winkler, another Indianapolis youth, who took up football after ho entered Purdue, and who is a junior. Is the first-string choice for tackle.
Snow is the other selection Eickmann, who was a briliant player at Manual, Indianapolis, is the secondstring choice, and Cameron is his team-mate. Dellinger, former Elkhart star, Yoos, Schotte and Harmon are other aspirants for the tackle positions. Line Is Needed Noble Kiser, former Notre Dame guard, and wko one day was a stellar line performer, is finding the going rather tough making a foward wall to match aip with the back field. Deephouse, a junior, and Spencer, a senior, are the best looking guards. They are anything but certain of their berths. Hook, another Indianapolis boy, and Prentice are the next best, if any. Mierau, Place, Scott and Swanson are likely to break into the regular line-up, according to Kiser. Rabe, who played at Eech, Indianapolis, and who has a year of experience sack of him, is the regular center. Olson is the second choice. Threefall. a senior, has been wormed back to third team. Referring to the reserve back field, we find some mighty fine mateiial. Mackey, at full back, is a good plun ger, and Isley and Koransky have had experience. Ramby. Guthrie. Cook, Wilson and Ramser are ail youths of sterling ability only overshadowed by the great Wilcox and Leichtle as half backs. Toss-Up at Quarter The quarter back post is a toss-up between Miller and Speidel. If anything, the former has the edge. Gugliano is injured and Houston and Plock rank next. Purdue has a great array of ball carcirs; the team pulling is good; the passing is superb; and the tackling is good. The weakness seems to lie in the middle line, and that is where eastern teams often drive. The green linemen are worrying Coaches Phelan and Kiser. It looks like a scoring game in the East. Saturday, with the aerial attack of Purdue battling the line attack of the sailors. Wc favor Purdue to startle the Eajt, take it as you will.

THE INDIAN APOLIS TIMES
By Major Hoople rtrri ew york, oct. I.— Egad, IN I ’ Last evening was I I I spent In a heated discussion up in my hotel room wtih a group of celebrated baseball writers. The topic, of couise, was baseball. I claimed that the Nidjka Beetle of the Belgian Congo was by far the most deadly of all the inhabitants of the Jungle. There are few who will bear me out on this (they bore the Major out at 4 a. m.—Linotyper’s note), as there are only two men in the world who ever came in contact with the Nidjka Beetle. Polar Bear League One was Captain Swizzner of an ill-fated arctic schooner who met his demise in a fur coat. The fur coat was dwelled in by a polar bear at the time. Well, sir, the only remaining person who has had personal experience with the Nodjka Beetle, is myself. The other gentlemen were arguing the point of the respective ability and team value of a Mr. Ruth and a Mr. Hornsby, ball player, I believe. Now then, the Nidjka Beetle is unlike any other beetle in the world, in the fact that it, er—ah, that is—well, it most certainly is, by Jove. That settles that, egad! • The point that I stressed in the controversy, was that if more ball oiayers would slide into first base on

Hoople Suggests World Series Fielders Play Pinochle and Solitaire
a walk, it would add more action to the contest. The same holds true with the outfielders. There are many innings that they remain idle with their hands on their knees chewing tobacco. Y’ou understand, of course. I do not mean to infer that tHeir knees are chewing tobacco—haw, an utter physical impossibility, besides being ridiculous, egad! The Major’s Suggestion I suggested that during their idle periods the outfielders cotild occupy themselves playing three-handed pinochle, or. if they are not on speak lng terms, play solitaire. My suggestion was taken very seriously by all, as I noticed several of the gentlemen tap their foreheads and nod gravely to one another.

silent compliment to me that I had thought of a remarkable idea, no doubt. To get back to the Nidjka Beetle, a bounty has been set by the crown of Belgium equaling the sum of SSOO for its capture and extermina tion. As there is only one of the insects in existence, this will prove a mighty task, due to the fact that it is so lonesome it does not know where it is itself. Hm-m.
